90 Storage

Storage

Types of storage

Want to know what types of storage you can use for your apps, data, and files?

HTC Deluxe has these storage types:

Phone storage

USB storage

Online storage

This storage combines both the internal storage, where apps, email, data, and text messages are stored, and the file storage, where photos, videos, and music files are kept.

When you are running out of phone storage, you can free up space by uninstalling apps, changing download settings, or moving files to your computer or to an online storage service.

When you plug in an external USB storage device (such as a USB flash drive or an SD card reader), you can view photos and videos stored on the device right from Gallery and play songs stored on the device in Music. You can also open PDFs and edit Office documents.

You need a USB On-The-Go micro cable adapter to connect HTC Deluxe and a USB storage device. HTC Deluxe supports USB storage devices (except portable hard drives) up to 64 GB.

If you're using an online storage account that's accessible from HTC Deluxe, you can store your files to your online storage.

You can copy your music, photos, and other files to HTC Deluxe.

1. Connect HTC Deluxe to the computer using the supplied USB cable. You'll see

options for viewing or importing files on the computer screen.

Making more storage space

As you use HTC Deluxe, you will accumulate data and fill its storage capacity over time. Here are some tips on how to increase storage space.

Store files in Dropbox

Photos, email attachments, and other documents can be stored in Dropbox and accessed anywhere you are. You can set the Camera app to automatically upload photos to Dropbox.

Manage photos and videos

§ Set the Camera app to automatically upload to a photo-sharing site or online storage. When you reach the storage limit, just delete all your photos. You can retrieve them from the photo-sharing site or online storage when needed.

§ After taking continuous camera shots, keep only the best shot and discard the rest.

§ After editing a photo or trimming a video, the original file is kept. You can delete original files or move them to online storage or to your computer.

§ If you are not printing large photos or are only sending videos through MMS, use a lower resolution. High-resolution media takes up more space. In Camera settings, tap Aspect and Resolution for photos or tap Video Quality for videos.

Back up apps data

Keep only the most recent data from apps on HTC Deluxe. You can back up calendars, contacts, and bookmarks or export text messages, and personal dictionaries. For details, see Backing up files, data, and settings on page 95.

Disable some apps
