Encryption
As a security measure, you can encrypt the contents of
your phone or an optional installed memory card (not
included), and require a password each time you turn
on the phone or access the memory card.
Encryption may take an hour or more to complete. Start
with a charged battery, and attach the charger until
encryption is complete. Loss of power or other
interruption may cause the loss of some or all data.
