Ustvarite svoj videz za One M9
Personalizacija je pomembna stvar za mnoge ljudi. Želite, da vaši začetni zasloni odražajo vaš okus, in ne želite biti obtičali s pisavami in ikonami, ki jih narekuje privzeti uporabniški vmesnik vašega telefona. S temami HTC lahko spremenite ne samo ozadje, ampak tudi prenesete na stotine tem, paketov ikon in pisav za vaš One M9. Ustvarite lahko celo svojo temo po meri. Takole:
- Odprite aplikacijo Teme
- Dotaknite se ikone »+« zgoraj desno
- Tapnite Izberi domačo sliko , nato Fotoaparat da posnamete fotografijo ozadja, na katerem želite, da temelji vaša tema, ali Galerija da izberete tisto, ki jo že imate.
- Ko izberete ozadje, izberite filter, obrežite sliko in tapnite Naprej dokler ne dosežete Ustvari temo:slog strani. Če želite spremeniti temo, ki jo je ustvaril HTC, tapnite Uredi ali tapnite Naprej če si srečen.
- Poimenujte temo, preverite, ali je Uporabi to temo zdaj polje odkljukano, nato tapnite V redu .
Hitro dodajte pripomočke na domače zaslone
Pripomočki so nekaj najbolj uporabnih stvari za vaš telefon, saj vam omogočajo nadzor in dostop do funkcij, za katere bi običajno morali iti v aplikacijo ali nastavitve telefona. Dodajanje pripomočkov na One M9 je preprosto:
- Dolgo tapnite prazen prostor na enem od začetnih zaslonov, nato tapnite Dodaj aplikacije in pripomočke .
- Tukaj lahko dodate stvari, kot je Peel Smart Remote, pripomočke za brezžično povezljivost in drugo. Vedno priročni pripomočki WiFi, mobilni podatki in Bluetooth so pravzaprav skriti veliko nižje na seznamu pripomočkov, zato se boste morali pomakniti navzdol da jih najdem.
- Ko najdete pripomoček, ki ga želite dodati na začetni zaslon, se dolgo dotikajte njegove ikone, dokler ga ne dvignete, nato pa ga povlecite navzgor na eno od zgornjih sličic začetnega zaslona.
Zaženite kamero z gumbom za glasnost
Želite skočiti naravnost v aplikacijo kamere, ne da bi morali najprej vklopiti zaslon? To lahko storite tako, da sledite tem korakom:
- Najprej pojdite na Nastavitve> Zaslon in poteze> Poteze za zagon z gibanjem nato označite polje zraven »Gumb za glasnost za zagon kamere.
- Vaš One M9 vam tega ne pove, vendar morate tudi gumb za glasnost dodeliti sprožilcu v aplikaciji kamere. Če želite to narediti, odprite aplikacijo Kamera, tapnite ikono s tremi pikami in nato Nastavitve ikona zobnika.
- Tapnite Splošne nastavitve> Možnosti gumba za glasnost> Zajemi
Uporabljajte svoj HTC One M9 z rokavicami
Remember how frustrating it used to be with older smartphones when you had gloves on and would try in vain to swipe and tap your screen to answer an urgent call? HTC addresses this nightmarish problem by having a dedicated 'Glove mode', which - you guessed it - makes the screen more responsive when you're wearing gloves.
- Go to Settings> Display &gestures then tick the box next to 'Glove mode' to enable this feature. This makes your screen more sensitive, so we recommend you turn it on only when you need it, otherwise your One M9 might start misbehaving in your pocket.
Cap data usage on your HTC One M9
'Data shock' is becoming less and less frequent these days, thanks to decreased mobile roaming charges, more transparency from network providers, and handy phone features. The HTC One M9 has its own clear and simple tool that lets you cap your mobile data usage, and even set a monthly cycle for your data usage to be in sync with your monthly mobile contract.
- Go to Settings> More> Data usage then tap the Limit mobile data usage box.
- Two lines will appear in the graph - one showing your custom-set data limit, the other marking when you receive a warning that you're approaching your limit. Drag these two lines using the colored markers on the right side so that they're in line with your data tariff.
- Tap Reset data usage , then select the day of the month on which you receive your bill from your network provider.
Track battery usage on your HTC One M9
There are plenty of third-party battery monitor apps out there that break down much much battery you're using on various apps, processes and tools on your phone. While these are great if you want to go into forensic detail with your battery usage, the One M9 has a perfectly decent battery monitor itself. To use it:
- Go to Settings> Power . Here you can switch on Power saver and Extreme power saving modes (which you can also do in your Quick Settings menu), and check stats on your battery usage.
- Tap History to see a graph showing your battery depleting (depressing, we know) and see how many days use you can get on your remaining charge.
- From the Power menu, tap Batter usage to see which apps, services and features use most battery. Tap Screen Off or Screen On to see which apps use most battery in these respective states.
- To switch off a battery-hogging app, tap it in the list, then tap Force stop .
Hide system apps and 'smart folders'
Thanks to the large-scale public outcry against bloatware on Android devices, you now have much more control over what apps appear on your device. The HTC One M9 features the usual Google apps and also an annoying little 'Suggestions' box on your homescreens, but you can hide all of these if you wish:
- To hide apps in the app drawer, open the app drawer, tap the tree-dotted icon at the top right, Hide/unhide apps , then tap all the apps that you'd like to hide.
-
To remove so-called 'smart folders' like Downloads and Suggestions from your Sense Home Widget, tap the Home/Work/Out dropdown menu in the widget, tap the overflow menu (three-dotted icon), then Show/hide smart folders. Untick the boxes for the folders you want to hide, then tap OK.
Quickly switch between front and rear cameras
At first glance, the One M9 camera may seem a bit fiddly to switch between the front (sorry, 'selfie') camera and rear camera, seemingly requiring you to tap the four-circle icon at the bottom right, then selecting a new shooting mode. But there is a much quicker way:
- To quickly switch between the front and rear camera on your One M9, swipe left or right if you're in portrait mode, or up or down if you're in landscape mode. In Landscape mode, you can also swipe to the Panorama mode using this method.
Fine-tune the volumes on different phone features
Remember how Lollipop got rid of the classic 'mute' mode on phones and replaced it with the inscrutable Priority Mode? Most manufacturers are now backtracking on this feature, but from day one the HTC One M9 kept Priority Mode as an option, alongside standard mute mode.
- To silence your ringtone - but not alarms or music and videos - just hold the volume down button on your One M9 until you reach silent mode.
- To silence your alarm, or music and videos, individually, tap the volume button, then the cog icon on the 'Ringtone' display that appears.
- Use the sliders to adjust - or completely silence - the volume on their corresponding features.
Turn your One M9 into a TV remote
Like the One M8 before it, the HTC One M9 has a built-in iR blaster, which makes it a great all-in-one remote for TVs, AV receivers and even air conditioners around your house. The One M9 replaced the 'TV' app with Peel Smart Remote. After some early problems, the app is now working as it should. Here's how to set it up:
- If you haven't yet, download and install Peel Smart Remote, then open it.
- Follow the setup process, then when you're finished you'll be presented with a screen showing what Live TV you can watch with your selected TV provider.
- To add another device, tap the remote icon at the top right, tap the header at the top-centre, then tap Add device . This will take you through the same process as setting up your TV.
- Tap the three dots at the top right, Settings , then scroll down to Remote Control if you want your remote control to be displayed in the notifications menu, or if you want an 'Always on' widget on your screen.
- You can also add the remote control widget using the standard method (see 'Quickly add widgets to your homescreens').
