Device encryption Encrypting your device By default, data is encrypted before saving on the device to protect the data. It is possible to read, write and copy data even when device encryption is set. Precautions for device encryption You can use the mobile phone lock on the lock screen to increase your device's protection level. • If the mobile phone lock is turned on and an incorrect password is entered more than a specified number of times, the device will automatically reset. • If you forget your decryption password, reset the device. Factory reset will delete all data saved before reset. • Encryption takes place when the device boots for the first time after a factory reset. Stopping encryption before it is complete may damage data. For example, do not remove or insert the battery while encryption is in progress. Wait until the process is complete. Basic Functions 61

Device encryption
Encrypting your device
By default, data is encrypted before saving on the device to protect
the data. It is possible to read, write and copy data even when device
encryption is set.
Precautions for device encryption
You can use the mobile phone lock on the lock screen to increase
your device's protection level.
If the mobile phone lock is turned on and an incorrect password
is entered more than a specified number of times, the device will
automatically reset.
If you forget your decryption password, reset the device. Factory
reset will delete all data saved before reset.
Encryption takes place when the device boots for the first time
after a factory reset. Stopping encryption before it is complete may
damage data. For example, do not remove or insert the battery
while encryption is in progress. Wait until the process is complete.
