• Synchronise your email, contacts, and calendar using Gmail.
• You can back up, restore and transfer your data from an old device to your new
device.
• Chat with friends using the Google Duo™ application.
• Synchronise your browsing history and bookmarks using the Google Chrome™
web browser.
• Identify yourself as the authorised user after a software repair using Xperia

Transferring content from your old device

There are several ways to transfer your data from an old device to your new device.
• Synchronise data using Google account
• Copy and transfer data using a computer
• Copy and transfer data using an SD card
Synchronising data using a Google account

using on your old device. Then, your Gmail, Calendar, and Contacts will be automatically synchronised with your Google account.
• Image (photo), video: Back up your data from the old device to the Google server
using Google Photos. Then, synchronise with your Google account on the new device.
• Applications, setting, call history: Back up automatically using Google Drive on
your old device. Then, synchronise with your Google account on your new device.
• Music and other document les: Manually back up your media les from the old

Screen lock

Set a secure screen lock on your device using a PIN, password, pattern, or ngerprint to prevent others from using your device without permission. Once the screen lock is set, it is not possible to unlock the screen or erase the content via a Erase all data (factory reset) without providing the screen lock information.
Find my device
Use the Find my device service to remotely locate, lock, unlock, or erase the content on a lost device. After you have signed in to your Google account, Find my device is turned on by default.
SIM card lock
Lock your SIM cards with a PIN to protect your subscription against misuse. The PIN is required every time you restart your device.
IMEI number
Keep a copy of the IMEI number. If your device is stolen, some network providers can use this number to stop the device from accessing the network in your country or region.
Backup
Back up the content on your device in case your device is damaged, lost or stolen.

Screen lock
When the screen is locked you have to unlock it with a swipe gesture or with your personal pattern, PIN, password or ngerprint. Initially, the unprotected screen swipe is set, but it is recommended to use a more secure screen lock to protect your device.
The security level of each lock type is listed below in order of weakest to strongest:
• Swipe: no protection, but you have quick access to the Home screen.
• Pattern: draw a simple pattern with your nger to unlock your device.
• PIN: enter a numeric PIN of at least four digits to unlock your device.

Hint
If you use a Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync® (EAS) account, the EAS security settings may limit the lock screen type to only a PIN or password. Contact your network administrator to check the implemented network security policies.

Fingerprint Manager

Register your ngerprint to use it as an additional security method for unlocking your device or authenticating purchases. You can register up to 5 ngerprints on your device.
The pattern, PIN, or password screen lock serves as a backup unlock method when a ngerprint is used as a screen lock. Before registering your ngerprint, make sure the sensor is clean and without any visible moisture.
To register a ngerprint for the rst time
1 Find and tap Settings > Lock screen & security > Fingerprint Manager. 2 Tap Next. If prompted conrm your pattern, PIN, or password, or select your

SIM card protection

Y
ou can lock and unlock each SIM card that you use in your device with a PIN. When a SIM card is locked, the subscription linked to the card is protected against misuse, meaning that you have to enter a PIN every time you start your device.
If you enter the PIN incorrectly too many times, your SIM card will get blocked. You then need to enter your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) and a new PIN. Your PIN and PUK are supplied by your network operator.
To set up a SIM card lock
1 Find and tap Settings > Lock screen & security > Advanced > SIM card lock. 2 Dual SIM users, select a SIM card. 3 Tap the Lock SIM card switch to enable. 4 Enter the SIM card PIN and tap OK. The SIM card lock is now active and you will be

Using Dual SIM devices

If you are using a Dual SIM device, it works with either one or two SIM cards inserted. You can get incoming communication to both SIM cards and select which number to place outgoing communication from. Before using multiple SIM cards, you need to enable them and select a SIM card which will handle data trac.
You can forward calls that come in on SIM 1 to SIM 2 when SIM 1 is unreachable, and vice versa. This function is called Dual SIM reachability. You must enable it manually. See
To enable or disable the use of two SIM cards
1 Find and tap Settings > Network & Internet > Advanced > Dual SIM. 2 Tap the SIM1 and SIM2 switches to enable or disable the SIM cards.

Finding, locking or erasing a lost device

Google oers a location and security web service called Find my device. After you have signed in to a Google account, Find my device is turned on by default. If you lose your device, you can use Find my device to:
• Find and show where your device is located on a map.
• Lock your device and present a message on the lock screen.
• Unlock your device and reset it by erasing its content.
• Activate the ringer, even if the sound is turned o.
Your device must be turned on, have an internet connection, and have the location service activated. The Find my device service may not be available in all countries or regions.
For additional information about Find my device, go to

Using location services

Location services allow applications such as Maps and the camera to use information from your mobile or Wi-Fi network as well as GPS (Global Positioning System) information to determine your approximate location. If you’re not within a clear line of sight to GPS satellites, your device can determine your location using the Wi-Fi function. And if you’re not within range of a network, your device can determine your location using your mobile network.
In order to use your device to nd out where you are, you need to enable location services.
To enable or disable location services
1 Find and tap Settings > Lock screen & security > Location. 2 Tap the switch to enable or disable location services.
Improving GPS accuracy
The rst time you use the GPS function in your device, it can take a few minutes for your location to be found. To help the search, make sure you have a clear view of the sky. Stand still and don’t cover the GPS antenna. GPS signals can pass through clouds and plastic, but not through most solid objects such as buildings and mountains. If your location isn’t found after a few minutes, move to another location.
