information through many different channels and accounts, including Gmail™ (Google),
personal and corporate email, text and multimedia messaging, social networking accounts, and
Google Hangouts™.

Gmail™ and Google™
You will need a Google Account to access several phone features such as Gmail, Google
Maps™, Google Hangouts, and the Google Play™ Store apps. Before you are able to access
Google applications, you must enter your account information. These applications sync between
your phone and your online Google Account.

Create a Google Account

If you do not already have a Google Account, you can create one online or using your computer
or phone.
Note: You can also create and sign in to your Google/Gmail account through your phone's
Setup application.
Note: Although you need a Gmail account to use certain features of your phone, such as
Google Play, you do not need to use Gmail as the default account for your phone.
