IMPORTANT
Some applications, such as Calendar,
work only with the first Google Account you add. If you plan to use more than one Google Account with your phone, be sure to sign into the one you want to use with such applications first. When you sign in, your contacts, Gmail messages, Calendar events, and other information from these applications and services on the web are synchronized with your phone. If you don’t sign into a Google Account during setup, you will be prompted to sign in or to create a Google Account the first time you start an application that requires one, such as Gmail or Android Market™.
If you want to use the backup feature to
restore your settings to this phone from another phone that was running Android release 2.0 or later, you must sign into your Google Account, during setup. If you wait until after setup is complete, your settings will not be restored.
If you have an enterprise account through
your company or other organization, your IT department may have special instructions on how to sign into that account.
