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.
Note: Depending on the amount of content, doing a manual backup through data connection may
incur additional data costs and take a long time. Using a Wi-Fi connection is recommended.
Note: To restore paid apps, you need to download and install them from Google Play.

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

backup history will then be displayed.

Your free apps that you've previously downloaded from Google Play will be restored in the
background, and you can track the progress via a notification in the status bar.
The Apps and Home screen shortcuts will be reorganized as in your backup after all of your apps
have been installed. You may continue using your phone while apps are being restored.
Tip: You can also go to Settings, and then touch Backup & reset > Restore from HTC Backup.
Just make sure that you've already signed in to the same account that you used to back up your
phone before. Restoring a backup will overwrite the current data and settings on your phone.
