Recently I have been asked how to replace the home screen shortcuts, so i wrote the following post which provides some information about customization of the E72 home screen.
The E72 home screen consists of 2 types of shortcuts:
- Applications shortcuts - 6 shortcuts for running application straight from the home screen.
- Home screen applications - Interactive application that provide information on the home screen.
Application Shortcuts
Menu-> Ctrl. panel-> Settings->General-> Personalization ->Standby mode-> Mode settings-> Application Shortcuts.
Here you can enable/disable the applications shortcuts or replacing the applications.
It’s also possible to use web site address as application shortcut.
Home Screen Applications
Menu-> Ctrl. panel-> Settings->General-> Personalization ->Standby mode-> Mode settings-> Home Screen Applications
Select the application you would like to have on the Home screen.
Some important applications:
Message Notification – Display notification at bottom of the screen only when new SMS/MMS message is waiting.
Missing Call Notification – Displays notification at bottom of the screen only when you have missing call
Calendar – Display upcoming meetings from the calendar
Music Player - Display music player control when the musing player is being used.
Email home screen plugin should be configured from different menu :
Menu-> Ctrl. panel-> Settings->General-> Email -> Global settings -> Home Screen . It supports to email accounts: Primary and Secondary (Left, Right keys to switch between them).
Mailbox – Select which mailbox account to display. you need to have mail account configured.
