Lifestyle Home
Most of the Lifestyle Home functionality is implemented by means of
widgets. There are widgets for all purposes: widget-based photo contacts,
media player, profiles, weather, world time, and wireless manager, etc. Make
your own Home screen using those widgets and personalize your
Smartphone by changing the background of the widgets screen. You can
download additional free backgrounds right from your phone using the
Online Catalog (Internet connection is required). There are different ways to
navigate around the Lifestyle Home screen on your phone.
The Home screen extends beyond the screen width to provide more
space for adding icons, widgets, and more. Select
HOME, and
then slide your finger horizontally across the screen to go to the left
or right side of the extended Home screen.
Tap
to view the available layout options.
To open the available options for a widget (for example, contact or
shortcut), simply tap and hold the item.
Swipe to switch between the Lifestyle pages and slide to switch
between Lifestyle and professional layouts. To swipe or slide means
to quickly drag your finger vertically or horizontally across the
screen.
To drag widgets to your preferred locations, select Edit Layout then
tap and hold on a widget with some pressure before you start to
drag. While dragging, do not release your finger until you have
reached the target position.
Tips
There is another easy way to get thousands of high quality backgrounds since
wallpapers created for Windows desktops work very well with SPB Mobile
Shell. For best results use 1280x1024 wallpapers with widescreen devices
(480x800, 240x400) and 1280x800 with regular screen devices (480x640,
240x320). You can also create your own background. SPB Mobile Shell can
use almost any picture as a background. To achieve best and most
predictable results use the following picture sizes: Devices with wide screen
(480x800, 240x400): 960x748. Devices with regular screens (480x640,
240x320): 960x588
