Ways of backing up files, data, and settings

Worried that you might lose important stuff on HTC One (E8)? Back up HTC One (E8)
before you erase the storage, do a factory reset, or upgrade to a new phone.

HTC Backup

Use the built-in HTC Backup to back up your accounts, settings, contacts stored on
your phone, text messages, and more to the cloud so that it will be easier to restore
them on HTC One (E8) (after a factory reset) or newer phone.

HTC Sync Manager

Use HTC Sync Manager to import music, photos, and videos from HTC One (E8) to
your computer. You can also sync locally stored contacts, calendar events,
bookmarks, and playlists between HTC One (E8) 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 (E8) 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 phone storage or storage card so you
can easily restore them after a factory reset. Just make sure not to erase the phone
storage or storage card when you do a factory reset.

§

Moving apps to the storage card doesn't back up the apps. If you do a factory
reset, your phone loses the apps. You'll need to reinstall them.

§

When you remove the storage card and insert it in another phone, the apps on the
storage card won't be installed automatically to the other phone. You'll need to
reinstall them.
