Starting Your Phone; Accounts And Services - Sony Xperia Play User Manual

Starting your phone

The first time you start your phone, you are prompted to touch the Android logo to begin.
This is a good time to learn more about your phone and decide how you want to use Android
and Google features. You are also prompted to create a Google account or log in to an
existing account.

Accounts and services

Sign in to your online service accounts from your phone and benefit from a range of services.
Combine services and get even more out of them. For example, collect contacts from your
Google™ and Facebook™ accounts and integrate them into your phonebook, so you have
everything in one place.
You can sign up to online services from your phone as well as from a computer. When you
sign up for the first time, an account is created with your user name, password, settings
and personal information. The next time you sign in, you get a personalized view.
