Encrypt Files On Your Storage Card - HTC TOUCH DUAL User Manual

Notes • To ensure you can always make emergency calls, do not begin your password with the digits of your local
emergency number.
• If you entered a hint, the hint will be displayed after the wrong password is entered five times.
• Each time a wrong password is entered, the device response time gets longer until the device appears to be not
responding.
• If you forget your password, you can hard reset or clear the device memory. Before you do this, make sure you
back up your data and files so that you can restore them back to your device. For more information about hard
resetting the device and clearing the memory, see Chapter 1.

2. Select Encrypt files placed on storage cards.
Notes • Encrypted files can be read only on the device that encrypted them.
• Encrypted files are opened just like other files, provided you are using the device that encrypted them. There is
no separate step for you to take to read these files.
