Your Home screen is where you make HTC One V your own. You can add your
favorite applications, shortcuts, folders and widgets so they're always just a tap away.

is not enough. No problem.
Slide your finger horizontally to the left or right on the screen and you'll discover more
space for adding icons, widgets, and more.

Finger gestures

Tap When you want to type using the keyboard, select items onscreen such
as application and settings icons, or press onscreen buttons, simply tap
them with your finger.
Press and To open the available options for an item (for example, a contact or
hold link in a webpage), simply press and hold the item.
Swipe or To swipe or slide means to quickly drag your finger vertically or
slide horizontally across the screen.
Drag Press and hold your finger with some pressure before you start to
drag. While dragging, do not release your finger until you have reached
the target position.
Flick Flicking the screen is similar to swiping, except that you need to swipe
your finger in light, quicker strokes. This finger gesture is always in a
vertical direction, such as when flicking the contacts or message list.
Rotate For most screens, you can automatically change the screen orientation
from portrait to landscape by turning HTC One V sideways. When
entering text, you can turn HTC One V sideways to bring up a bigger
keyboard.
