Storage Settings

The Storage settings let you view and manage the phone and SD card storages.

Types of Storage

Your phone has the following storage types for your apps, data, and files.
Phone storage. This is the internal storage which contains the Android system, preinstalled
n
apps, email, text messages, and cached data from the apps. You can also install apps that
you've downloaded and capture photos, videos, and screenshots to this storage.
SD card (Storage card). Use your SD card (purchased separately) as a removable storage to
n
store and access your media and other files on HTC Bolt or any Android phone, or set it up as an
extension of the internal storage. See SD Card Storage Settings.
USB storage. When you plug in an external USB storage device (such as a USB flash drive or
n
an SD card reader). You need a special cable to connect your phone and a USB storage device.
Online storage. If you're using an online storage account that's accessible from your phone,
n
you can store your files to your online storage.

SD Card Storage Settings

Use your SD card as removable storage when there's already content such as your media and other
files so that you don't lose that content. If you have a brand new SD card, choose whether to use it as
removable storage or set it up as an extension of the internal storage.
Removable Storage
Use a new SD card as removable storage to be able to insert and use the card on HTC Bolt and
other Android phones.
Internal Storage
Set up a new SD card as internal storage for more privacy and secure use. This encrypts and
formats the SD card to work just like the internal storage.
This also expands the storage space since:
Captured screenshots, camera shots, media, and other files will be stored on the SD card.
n
Third-party apps that you installed and their data can be moved between the on-device storage
n
and SD card.
Important: After setting up the SD card as internal storage, the SD card can only be used on HTC
Bolt where it has been formatted.
