Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone
is stolen, and may be required or recommended in some
organizations. Consult your system administrator before turning
it on. In many cases the pattern, PIN or password you set for
encryption is controlled by the system administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
• Set a screen lock pattern, PIN or password.
• Charge the battery.
• Keep the phone connected to the charger.
• Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process: you
must not interrupt it or you will lose some or all of your data.
When you’re ready to turn on encryption:
1. Swipe up from the bottom of the home screen and tap
Settings > Security > Encrypt phone
.
2. Read the information about encryption carefully.
The
ENCRYPT PHONE
button is dimmed if your battery is
not charged or your phone’s not plugged in.
If you change your mind about encrypting your phone,
touch the
Back
key.
WARNING!
If you interrupt the encryption process, you will
lose data.
