Security Settings
Configure your phone’s security parameters.
Encryption
After encryption, you must enter the PIN or password you set each time you turn on your
device. You can also encrypt information stored on an optional installed memory card (not
included).
Encryption may take an hour or more to complete. Do not turn off the device during encryption.
Interrupting the encryption process may result in the loss of some or all data.
Before Encrypting Your Device
Important! Charge the battery to at least 80%, and plug the device into the charger to ensure
that the battery remains charged.
Note: Set a Screen lock password of at least 6 characters, including at least one number.
1. Press and touch > Settings > More tab.
2. Touch Security to set options:
 Encrypt device: Encrypt data stored in your device’s internal memory.
 Encrypt external SD card: Encrypt files stored on an optional memory card (not
included). You can choose whether to encrypt only new files, or to encrypt all files on
the card. You can also choose to exclude multimedia files from encryption.
Make Passwords Visible

Device Administration
Some applications, such as Corporate email, may require you to allow access to your device by
device administrators in certain circumstances, such as if your device is lost or stolen.
These applications enforce remote or local device security policies. Some of the features a
device administration application might control are:
● Setting the number of failed password attempts before the device is restored to factory
settings.
● Automatically locking the device.
● Restoring factory settings on the device.
