Quick guide
For the complete user guide and other helpful resources, go to www.htc.com/support. Please also read the Safety and regulatory guide that’s included in the box.
Before you do anything else, please read this
Charge the battery
The battery in your phone hasn’t been charged yet. While your phone is charging, it’s important that you do not remove the battery pack. Doing so can damage your phone. Also, please don’t try to take your phone apart. (If you do, it may invalidate your warranty.)
Choose a rate plan wisely
Depending on how you use your phone, it can use up a lot of Internet bandwidth really quickly. Before you use your phone, we strongly recommend that you talk to your mobile operator about data rates.
Using data services while roaming will be costly. Check with your mobile operator for data roaming rates before you use data roaming.
Know about privacy laws
Some countries have strict laws about how and when you can record phone conversations. It’s a good idea to find out what the laws are where you live before you use your phone’s recording feature.
And finally, a few important words from our legal team (LIMITATION OF DAMAGES)

And in no event shall the total liability of HTC or its affiliates exceed the amount received from you, regardless of the legal theory under which the cause of action is brought.
