2.10 Protecting your phone with encryption
You can encrypt all the data on your phone: your accounts,
application data, music and other media, downloaded
information, and so on. If you do, you must draw a pattern or
enter a numeric PIN or a password each time you power on your
phone.
WARNING!
Encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert to an
unencrypted phone is to perform a factor y data reset which
erases all your data.
Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone is
stolen and may be required or recommended in some
organisations. Consult the IT administrator of your organisation
before turning it on. In many cases the PIN or password you set
for encryption is controlled by the IT administ rator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
Set a lock screen pattern, PIN, or password.
Charge the battery.
Keep the phone connected to the charger.
Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process. You
must not interrupt it or yo u will lose some or all of your
data.
When you're ready to turn on encryption:
1. Tou ch the Home key > > Settings > Security >
Encrypt phone.
2. Tou c h ENCRYPT PHONE.
The ENCRYPT PHONE button is dimmed if your battery is
not charged or your phone is not plugged in.
If you change your mind about encrypting your phone,
touch the Back Key.
22
Page 24
WARN ING!
If you interrupt the encryption process, you will lose data.
Read the information about encr yption carefully.
3. Draw the lock screen pattern, or enter your lock screen PIN
or password and touch NEXT.
4. Tou c h ENCRYPT PHONE.
The encryption process starts and displays its progress.
Encryption can take an hour or more, during which time your
phone may restart several times.
When encryption is completed, you're prompted to draw the
pattern or enter your PIN or password.
Subsequently you must draw the pattern, enter your PIN or
password each time you power on your phone in order to
decrypt it.
