Sleep Mode - HTC Desire S User Manual

23 Basics

Sleep mode

Sleep mode saves battery power by putting your phone into a low power state while
the display is off. It also stops accidental button presses when the phone's in your bag
or pocket. You'll still receive messages and calls though.
Switching to Sleep mode
Briefly press the POWER button to turn off the display and switch your phone to
Sleep mode. Your phone also automatically goes into Sleep mode when it's idle for a
while.
Waking up from Sleep mode
To wake your phone up manually, press the POWER button. You'll need to unlock the
screen.
Your phone automatically wakes up when you have an incoming call.
Unlocking the screen
Press the bar on the lock screen and then slide your finger down to unlock the screen
or answer an incoming call.
If you have set up a screen unlock pattern, pin, or password, you will be asked to
draw the pattern on the screen or enter the PIN or password before it unlocks.
