Using Android Backup Service

Starting from Android 6.0, use the Android Backup Service to back up your HTC phone to
Google Drive

.

This service can back up and restore the following:

Back up What content or settings are backed up

App data § In HTC apps, app data includes contacts stored on HTC One X10, call history, Clock

and Weather city list, and email accounts.

§

Data from third-party apps may also be saved in the backup, depending on the app
developer settings.

Settings These include ringtones, grid size and sort order on theApps screen, Wi-Fi networks and

passwords and some device settings.

When auto backup is enabled, the Android Backup Service periodically backs up your phone to a
private folder in Google Drive. Auto backup occurs every 24 hours when the phone is idle, charging,
and connected to a Wi-Fi network.

Backup data will not count towards your Google Drive storage quota. Large files or files that app
developers have chosen to exclude from the service will not be backed up.

Restoring your wallpaper from your old phone may depend on screen resolution compatibility of
both your old phone and HTC One X10.
