Security

The security settings allow you to increase the security of your phone with screen locks, PIN,
encryption, and more.

Screen Lock

You can protect your phone by creating a screen lock. When enabled, you need to draw a
pattern or enter a numeric PIN or password to unlock the phone's screen.
1. Touch
2. Touch None, Long press, Pattern, PIN, or Password.
If you touch Pattern, you're guided to create a pattern you must draw to unlock the

screen. The first time you do this, a short tutorial about creating an unlock pattern
appears. Then you're prompted to draw and redraw your own pattern.
 If you touch PIN or Password, you're prompted to set a numeric PIN or a password
you must enter to unlock your screen.
Important: Screen lock options are listed in the approximate order of the strength of their
security, starting with None and Long press, which provide no security. Pattern
provides minimal security, although it can be more convenient than the stronger
options.
To change the screen lock or disable it:
1. Touch
2. Draw the pattern or enter the PIN/password and touch Next.
3. Touch None or Long press to disable screen lock.
