Getting started
Android™ – what and why?
Your Xperia™ from Sony runs on the Android platform. Android devices can perform
many of the same functions as a computer and you can customise them to your own
needs. For example, you can add and delete applications, or enhance existing
applications to improve functionality. On Google Play™ you can download a range of
applications and games from a constantly growing collection. You can also integrate
applications on your Android™ device with other applications and with online
services that you use. For example, you can back up your contacts, access your
different email accounts and calendars from one place, keep track of your
appointments, and engage in social networking.
Android™ devices are constantly evolving. When a new software version is available
and your device supports this new software, you can update your device to get new
features and the latest improvements.
Your Android™ device is pre-loaded with Google™ services. To get the most out of the
provided Google™ services, you should have a Google™ account and sign in to it when you
first start your device. You also need to have Internet access to use many of the features in
Android™.
New software releases may not be compatible with all devices.

•
Turn off your device and remove the back cover, then insert the memory card

responsible for any damage caused by use of incompatible or modified SIM cards.

Accounts and services
Sign in to your online service accounts from your device to get easy access when
you're on the move. For example, you can integrate contacts from your Google™
account into your phonebook, so you have everything in one place. You can sign up
to new online services from your device as well as from a computer.
Google™ account
Having a Google™ account is key to using a range of applications and services with
your Android device. You need a Google™ account, for example, to use the Gmail™
application in your device, to chat with friends using Google Talk™, and to
synchronise the calendar application on your device with your Google Calendar™.
You also need a Google™ account to download applications and games, music,
movies and books from Google Play™.
Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync® account
Synchronise your device with your corporate Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync®
account. This way, you keep your work email, contacts and calendar events with you
at all times.
Facebook™ account
Facebook™ is a social networking service that connects you with friends, family and
colleagues around the world. Set up Facebook to work on your device so that you
can stay in touch from anywhere.

Battery
Your device has an embedded battery.
Charging the battery
Your battery is partly charged when you buy the device. It may take a few minutes
appears on the screen when you connect the charger
before the battery icon
cable to a power source, such as a USB port or a charger. You can still use your
device while it is charging. Charging your device over a long period of time, for
example, overnight, does not damage the battery or the device.
The battery will start to discharge a little after it is fully charged and then charges again after a
certain time when the charger is connected. This is to extend battery life and may result in the
charge status showing a level below 100 percent.

To charge your device
Plug the charger into a power outlet.
Plug one end of the USB cable into the charger (or into the USB port of a
computer).
Plug the other end of the cable into the micro USB port on your device, with
the USB symbol facing up. The battery status LED lights up when charging
starts.
When the battery status LED is green, the device is fully charged. Disconnect
the USB cable from your device by pulling it straight outwards. Make sure not
to bend the connector when removing the cable from the device.
Use the charger and USB cable provided with the device to ensure faster charging.
If the battery is completely discharged, it may take a few minutes before the LED lights up
after you connect the charger cable to a power source.

Improving battery performance
The following tips can help you improve battery performance:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Charge your device often. This will not affect the lifetime of the battery.
Downloading data from the Internet is power consuming. When you're not using the
Internet, you can save power by disabling all data connections over mobile networks.
This setting does not prevent your device from transmitting data over other wireless
networks.
Turn off Bluetooth™ and Wi-Fi® when you don't need these features. You can turn
them on and off more easily by adding the Quick settings widget to your Home
screen.
Use the STAMINA mode and Low battery mode features to reduce battery
consumption. You can select the power saving mode that best suits the way you use
your device. You can also customise the settings of each power saving mode.
Set your synchronisation applications (used to synchronise your email, calendar and
contacts) to synchronise manually. You can also synchronise automatically, but
increase the synchronisation intervals.
Check the battery usage menu in your device to see which applications use the most
power. Your battery consumes more power when you use video and music streaming
applications, such as YouTube™. Some applications downloaded from Google
Play™ may also consume more power.
Close and exit applications that you are not using.

Turn off your device or activate the Airplane mode setting if you are in an area with
no network coverage. Otherwise, your device repeatedly scans for available
networks, and this consumes power.
Use a Sony original handsfree device to listen to music. Handsfree devices demand
less battery power than your device's own loudspeakers.
Keep your device in standby mode whenever possible. Standby time refers to the
time during your device is connected to the network and is not being used.
Disable any live wallpaper.

messages. You can also set up an applications list to allow some applications to
keep running when your screen is inactive. Once the screen becomes active again, all
paused functions are resumed.

Using the touchscreen
A protective plastic sheet is already attached to the screen of your device when you

touchscreen might not function properly.
When your device is on and left idle for a set period of time, the screen darkens to
save battery power, and locks automatically. This lock prevents unwanted actions on
the touchscreen when you are not using it. You can also set personal locks to protect
your subscription and make sure only you can access content on your device.
The device screen is made from glass. Do not touch the screen if the glass is cracked or
shattered. Avoid trying to repair a damaged screen yourself. Glass screens are sensitive to
drops and mechanical shocks. Cases of negligent care are not covered by the Sony warranty
service.

Sensors
Your device has sensors that detect both light and proximity. The light sensor detects
the ambient light level and adjusts the brightness of the screen accordingly. The
proximity sensor turns the touch screen off during voice calls when your ear is close
to the screen. This prevents you from unintentionally activating other functions on

Maps and locations
About location services
Use your device to find out where you are. There are two methods: GPS and wireless
networks. Enable the wireless networks option if you only need your approximate
location, and want it fast. If you want a more exact position, and have a clear view of
the sky, enable the GPS option. In situations where the wireless network connection
is weak, you should enable both options to ensure that your location is found.
Sony does not warrant the accuracy of any location services including but not limited to
navigational services.
Using GPS
Your device has a global positioning system (GPS) receiver that uses satellite signals
to calculate your location.
When you use features that require the GPS receiver to find your location, make sure you have
a clear view of the sky.
To enable GPS
From your Home screen, tap .
Tap Settings > Location services.
Mark the GPS satellites checkbox.
Getting the best performance
The first time you use the GPS it can take 5 to 10 minutes for your location to be
found. To help the search, make sure you have a clear view of the sky. Stand still and
don't cover the GPS antenna (the highlighted area in the image). The GPS signals can
pass through clouds and plastic, but not through most solid objects such as
buildings and mountains. If your location isn't found after a few minutes, move to
another location.
