Device Overview and Basic Operation

The Samsung S7390 is a smartphone designed for communication and various smart functionalities. The front of the device features a speaker (1) at the top, an earphone jack (2) for audio output, and a display screen. On the right side of the device, there is a power button / lock screen button (3) which is used to turn the phone on or off and to lock or unlock the screen. The left side of the device houses the volume up / down button (8), allowing users to adjust the audio volume. At the bottom of the screen, there are three capacitive buttons: a menu button (7) on the left, a home button (6) in the center, and a back button (4) on the right. The home button typically returns the user to the main home screen, while the back button navigates to the previous screen or action. The menu button provides access to additional options within an application. The bottom edge of the phone includes a charger port (5) for connecting the charging cable.

Setting Up Your New Smartphone

The guide outlines a step-by-step process for initial smartphone setup:

Turning On the Phone: To power on the device, press and hold the power button located on the top right-hand side of the phone.
Language Selection: Upon startup, the "Welcome!" screen appears, prompting the user to select a language. Users should choose their preferred language from the dropdown box (e.g., English (United States)) and then tap "Next." An accessibility option is also available for visually impaired or hard-of-hearing users.
Wi-Fi Setup: The next step involves setting up a Wi-Fi connection. The phone will scan for available Wi-Fi networks. Users can select their network and enter the password if required. There is an option to "Skip" this step and set up Wi-Fi later if a connection is not immediately available.
Date and Time Settings: Users can choose to use "Automatic date and time" (network-provided time) or manually set the date, time, and time zone. After making their selection, they should tap "Next."
End User License Agreement (EULA): The guide instructs users to read the EULA carefully. To proceed, users must tick the box indicating they "understand and agree to the terms and conditions above." Additionally, there's an option to choose whether to send Samsung error log data by tapping "Yes" or "No thanks." Finally, tap "Next."
Samsung Account: Users are prompted to sign in or create a Samsung account. This account can provide access to more content and services. However, it is not essential for the basic operation of the phone, so users can tap "Skip" if they do not wish to set one up at this stage.
Google Account: The setup continues with linking a Google account. Users can tap "Get an account" to sign in or create one, or tap "Not now" if they prefer not to set up a Google account at this time. A Google account is not essential for the phone's basic operation.
Location Services: Users are asked to choose whether to turn on location services. This involves ticking a box to enable Google's location service, which uses Wi-Fi and mobile network location to estimate the device's location. Users should then tap the right arrow icon to continue.
Dropbox Account: The device offers integration with Dropbox. Users can sign in to an existing Dropbox account or create a new one. If they do not wish to use this service, they can tap "No thanks."
Finalizing Setup: Once all the initial settings are configured, the phone will indicate that it is ready for use. Users should tap "Finish" to complete the setup.
