Protecting Your Phone With Encryption
You can encrypt all the data on your phone: Google Accounts, application da ta, music and other media, dow nloaded information, and so on. After encryption is applied you need to enter a numeric PIN or 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 factory data reset, which erases all your data.
Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone is stolen, and may be required or recom mended in some organisations. C onsult your system administrator before t urnin g it on. In many cases the PIN or password yo u set for encrypti on is co ntro lled by y our sys tem administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
1. Set a lock screen PIN or password.
2. Connect your phone to the charger.
3. The encryption process may take up to one hour. If you
interrupt the process you may lose data or your phone can end up in an unusable state.
When you're ready to procee d:
4. Touch Home > Apps > Setti ngs > Security > Encryp t
phone.
5. Read the instructions encryption car efully . The Encrypt phone button is not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged or your phone is not plugged in. If you are unsure about proceeding then touch the Back Key.
Page 95

WARNING! If you interrupt the encryption process, you will lose data.
6. Touch Encrypt phone.
7. Enter your lock screen PIN or password and touch
Next.
8. Touch Encrypt phone again. The encryption process starts and displays its progress.
Encryption can take an hour or more, during which time your phone may restart several times.
