Restore Your Backup to Your Phone From Google Drive
If you backed up your phone to Google Drive before, you can restore your backup to your
phone, or to a new HTC phone.

may incur additional data costs and take a long time. Using a Wi-Fi connection is
recommended.

restore content, and then select Restore from HTC Backup on the Set up phone
screen.

before. Your backup history will then be displayed.

your Google Account to access your Google Drive.

6. After your settings have been restored, touch NEXT to continue setting up your phone.
Your free apps that you've previously downloaded from Google Play will be restored in the
