    13 <p>Home screen is the basic state of the device. Once the user has powered

    14 the mobile device on, it results in the home screen state after all the startup

    15 activities have been finalized. The home screen state is the starting point

    16 (home state) for users, from where they start their tasks. It displays information

    17 about the current state of the device, including the connection status, battery

    18 level, and network operator.</p>

    19 <p>By default, the home screen displays predefined content. Users can add

    20 to the home screen Web Runtime widgets and C++ applications that have been

    21 enabled for the home screen. Users can also change the positions of the home

    22 screen content.</p>
