Setting up HTC Butterfly for the first time

§ Walk through the on-device setup to choose your Internet connection, sign in to your online accounts, and more.
§ Use our HTC Get Started service to set up your accounts and personalize HTC Butterfly from your computer.
The on-device setup shows you the URL of our Get Started site.

To find out more, see the Help and FAQ on our HTC Get Started site.
Some features that need to connect to the Internet such as location-based services and auto-sync of your online accounts may incur extra data fees. Don’t worry. You can enable or disable them in Settings later on.

Home screen

Your Home screen is where you make HTC Butterfly your own. You can add your favorite applications, shortcuts, folders and widgets so they’re always just a tap away. To find out how, see Personalizing on page 40.

Extended Home screen

Swipe your finger left or right on the screen and you’ll discover more space for adding icons, widgets, and more.

Storage

Types of storage

Want to know what types of storage you can use for your apps, data, and files?
HTC Butterfly 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 Butterfly and a USB storage device. HTC Butterfly 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 Butterfly, you can store your files to your online storage.

Making more storage space

As you use HTC Butterfly, 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 Butterfly. 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 98.
Run the storage wizard
For general clean-up purposes, use the storage wizard to uninstall apps, change download settings for email and text messages, and delete apps data and other files.
Disable some apps
Apps, even if not used often, may be running in the background and downloading data into the phone storage. If the app cannot be removed, you can disable it. In Settings, tap Apps > All, and select the app that you want to disable. Tap Disable.
