Sound Profile Setting.
When you have sound turned off (“Mute”), the title
bar will indicate whether you have flash or vibration set. From left to right, the
icons indicate: total mute (no flash or vibrate), flash only (no vibrate), vibrate.
Communication Services Notifications.
When you receive a new email, text
message, IM, or voice mail message, you’ll see a visual “balloon” notification
move across the title bar, while you’re in any application except games.
Until you read your new message or listen to your voice mail, you’ll see the
appropriate icon in the title bar, as a reminder.
Menus
Almost every screen on your device has a set of actions you can take while
on that screen. These actions are listed in a floating window, called a menu,
which you open by pressing the Menu button
MENU
. Notice that some menu
items expand into submenus, as shown with Settings below.
Frequently-used menu items also have keyboard shortcuts that use the Menu
button plus a shortcut key. For example, take a look at the menu shown above.
To compose a new email message, you could press
MENU
+
N
rather than
opening the menu and selecting
New Message
with the wheel.
