Background and themes
Your device comes with a default background, but you can adapt the Home screen
and Lock screen to your own style using wallpapers and themes featuring dierent
colours and patterns.
A wallpaper may be used without changing any of the other elements of your
Home screen and Lock screen. Live wallpapers add visual eects to your
interactions with the touchscreen, letting the display change dynamically.
Themes can include a wallpaper, a screensaver, title bars, and a sound scheme that
all t together to create a unique look and feel for your device.
