Removing an account

Remove accounts from HTC One X10 if you no longer use them. Removing an account does not
remove accounts and information from the online service itself.

1. From the Home screen, tap

Settings Accounts & sync.

2. Tap an account type.

If you've signed into multiple accounts under an account type, tap the account to remove.

3. Tap

Remove account.

Some personal data may be retained by the third-party app after you have removed the account
from HTC One X10.

Ways of backing up files, data, and settings

Worried that you might lose important stuff on HTC One X10? Back up HTC One X10 before you
remove content from the storage, do a factory reset, or upgrade to a new phone.

Android Backup Service

Use your Google Account to automatically back up app data and settings including Wi-Fi passwords
and files stored by certain apps.

HTC Sync Manager

Use HTC Sync Manager to import music, photos, and videos from HTC One X10 to your computer.
You can also sync locally stored contacts and playlists between HTC One X10 and your computer.

Likewise, HTC Sync Manager is a good alternative if you don't want to back up your accounts,
settings, and other personal content to the cloud. You can use it to create backups of HTC One X10
on your computer.

Other backup options

If you want, you can separately back up your data or files.

Some apps allow you to back up data to the storage card—if it's used as removable storage—so you
can easily restore them after a factory reset. Just make sure not to erase the storage card when you
do a factory reset.

In certain apps, you may be able to use the phone storage for backing up and restoring app data. If an
app is causing some problem and you need to clear its data to try resolving the problem, back up the
app data to the phone storage first.
