Windows 7 Phone Companion
M
icroso has learned from other mobile operating systems over the past
few years, and now the setup of your new Windows Phone 7 device is
quick and simple. You step through a handy, self-explanatory wizard, and like
magic all your email, photos, status updates, and more appear on your device
within minutes. Because the user experience is vastly different on Windows
Phone 7 than on previous Microso mobile operating systems, you need to
understand some basic elements out-of-the-box so that you can start using
your new device.
Initial Startup and Login Screens
Aer unboxing your Windows Phone device and connecting the charger to
fully charge the baery for use, turn it on using the physical power switch.
Carrier logos and startup screens may appear, but then you should see a wel-
come screen stating, “Let’s get started.” Let’s now walk through the initial
startup:
. At the welcome screen you should see two buons along the boom,
one to make an emergency call and the other to get started. Don’t make
an emergency call to get help seing up your device; the emergency
call buon is for serious emergencies only. Touch on the Get Started
buon to continue.
. This next screen shows you the Windows Phone terms of use with
hyperlinks to the full Terms of Use and Privacy Statement pages. Read
through these if you like, but most of us never do because we prey
much know what to expect with a mobile phone. If you select the
Reject option, the phone shuts down. Touch on the Accept buon to
continue.
. You now have two options for seing up your Windows Phone (see
Figure 1-1); either use the recommended seings or custom seings.
These options actually just control the seings to send information to
Microso to help improve its product (a fairly typical Microso seing
on its products) and by selecting Custom you can uncheck this box.
Touch on Recommended to continue setup.
