Reset Your Phone - HTC Desire 510 User Manual

Note: To restore paid apps, you need to download and install them from Google Play.
1. When you turn on a new HTC phone for the first time or after a factory reset, choose to
restore content, and then select Restore from HTC Backup on the Set up phone
screen.
2. Make sure to sign in using the same account that you used to back up your phone
before. Your backup history will then be displayed.
3. Select a backup, and then touch NEXT.
4. If you used your HTC Account or Facebook account to back up your phone, sign in to
your Google Account to access your Google Drive.
5. When prompted, allow HTC Backup 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
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.

Reset Your Phone

If your phone has a persistent problem that cannot be solved, you can perform a factory reset
(also called a hard reset or master reset). A factory reset reverts the phone back to its initial
state — the state before you turned on the phone for the first time.
The following will be removed from the phone when you do a factory reset:
●
Your Google Account
●
All accounts you've added in Settings > Accounts & sync and the data associated with
these accounts
●
Personal data that you've created or synced to the phone such as your profile, contacts,
messages, email, calendar events, and more
●
System and application data and settings
●
