Transfer Content from an Android Phone

On your old Android phone, download the HTC Transfer Tool and use it to transfer your content to your
new HTC phone.

The types of locally stored content on your old phone that the HTC Transfer Tool can transfer include
contacts, messages, calendar events, music, photos, videos, and some settings. More types of data such
as call histories, email accounts, and some HTC app settings can be transferred from HTC phones that
have HTC Sense 5.5 or higher.

Note: You need Android version 2.2 or later to use the HTC Transfer Tool on your old phone.

1. Tap

Settings > Get content from another phone.

2. Choose whether to transfer from an old HTC Android phone or other Android phone.

4. Follow the steps shown on your new phone to download and install the HTC Transfer Tool from

Google Play to your old phone, install it, and open the tool.

5. When you see a PIN on your old phone, make sure the same PIN also appears on your new

phone before you continue.

’t appear, tap Retry on your old phone. If it still won’t appear, this may mean

that your old phone is unable to connect to HTC 10. When this happens, try another transfer method.
