| |
| | |
| ===Various settings===

| | |
| Settings panel
| |
| Desktop Edit mode
| |
| | |
| ===Ringing tones / Ring tones / Ring tunes ===
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| ===Desktop Shortcuts===

| |
| | |

| ===Using the same widget on multiple desktops===
| |
| The folder /usr/share/applications/hildon contains files that contain info about installed programs. Duplicating these files will result in duplicating them in the shortcut list. However, this will result in a side effect causing the program to show multiple times the programs in the "More.." folder.

| ===Camera Sound===
