The default Lock screen is Swipe which protects
against unintentional touchscreen actions. Press the Power/Lock
Key on the back of the phone to illuminate the touchscreen if it has
timed-out. The Swipe default Lock screen is
displayed, but you can still conveniently check the date, time, and
Status Bar icons. You can drag the Status Bar down to open and use
the Notifications Panel without unlocking the screen. In addition,
you can also quickly access five applications (the Phone application
, the Messaging application
, the Google application
, the Notebook application
, and the Camera application
) without fully unlocking the screen. Simply swipe an icon
upward to open and use it.
