Next, you can sign in with your existing Xiaomi account or create a new account. If you would like to do this later, tap Skip. If you wish to create a new account, tap Create Mi Account , and then follow the on screen instructions to get it done. A Xiaomi account is needed to access Mi Cloud, download themes and etc.
On the Mi Message screen, tap Next. On the Data usage warning screen, you can do the following before tapping Next : Tap Set data package to enter your monthly mobile data limit in megabytes. The data connection will be disabled when the limit is reached. On the Additional settings screen, tap Next.
Last but not least, tap OK to finish up the initial setup. You may not need the extra storage space at first. But, once you start downloading apps, getting large software updates, and taking pictures and video, you may find yourself needing more space. The initial setup of the smartphone is now complete. For an overview of the apps that have already been installed on your device, have a look at the app drawer. The app drawer is a list of icons for all the apps on your phone and chances are that you'll find this at the bottom of the home screen the screen you should currently be on.
The icon for the app drawer is a gray circle with six dots inside, which you can tap on from the home screen. Now, look around your app drawer. If there are any apps you don't have yet that you want, you can go to Google's Play Store to download them.
Don't worry, the Play Store itself will be installed on your phone already. Installing apps is a simple process and the handset will walk you through anything you need to do like signing in. If you don't find an app drawer, it means your phone doesn't have one. To find your apps in this case, simply swipe your finger left or right from the home screen to see your other home screens views where apps could be located. When your Android is turned on for the first time, it might not be running the latest version of the software available for your specific model.
For example, your phone could come with Android Pie out of the factory, even if that model has an update ready for Android 10 , you'll have to download it after setting up. To check to see if an update is available, simply go into the settings of your phone.
The settings are found as an app in the app drawer or by going through the notification shade and tapping on the settings icon usually a cogwheel or a set of tools of some sort. Find the About Phone tab, which is usually located at the bottom of the settings menu, and tap it. It will look different depending on your manufacturer. However, you will likely tap on something along the lines of "Check for software updates".
Software updates can take a long time to download and install, which can drain your battery and sometimes hundreds of MB from your mobile data plan.
So, make sure that when you do this you are connected to a Wi-Fi connection and that your battery is at least 50 percent full. You should update to the latest version of Android available for your device because it usually provides more functionality, better battery life, and better security. If you don't like the background image that came with your device, do not despair — every smartphone offers a selection of different backgrounds from which you can choose.
The way to do this changes depending on the manufacturer, but look for Display or Wallpaper in the settings menu. Quite often, if you press on the home screen anywhere for a couple of seconds, a window will appear that enables you to change your wallpaper. If none of the options are to your liking, you could try out a new icon pack or test some other backgrounds — there are lots of these on the internet. You should also check your phone's default sound settings.
If you don't like the default ringtone, most phones come pre-loaded with alternatives. Make sure to adjust your ringtone and alarm volume to the appropriate level, too.
You don't want your cell phone annoying everyone when you go out in public. You can also set the sound settings for when you tap menu items or type on your keyboard to silent, if you like. How do you like your new Android smartphone?
