26
WARNING!
Encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert to an
unencrypted phone is to perform a factory data reset which
erases all your data.
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 PIN or password you set for encryption is
controlled by the system administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
Set a lock screen 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. Touch the Home key>> Settings > Security > Encrypt
phone.
2. Touch ENCRYPT PHONE.
The ENCRYPT PHONE button is dimmed if your battery is
not charged or your phone is 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.
27
Read the information about encryption carefully.
3. Draw the lock screen pattern, or enter your lock screen PIN or
password and touch NEXT.
4. Touch ENCRYPT PHONE.
The encryption process starts and displays its progress.
Encryption can take an hour or more, during which time your
phone may restart several times.
When encryption is completed, you're prompted to draw the
pattern or enter your PIN or password.
Subsequently you must draw the pattern, enter your PIN or
password each time you power on your phone in order to decrypt
it.
