Backup and restore application

Use the Backup and restore application to make backups of content to a memory
card or a USB storage device. Such backups can be used to restore your content
and some settings in cases where your data gets lost or deleted.

Types of content you can back up

Use the Backup and restore application to back up the following types of data:
• Bookmarks
• Call log
• Contacts
• Applications downloaded from Google Play™
• Multimedia messages
• System settings (such as alarms, ringer volume, and language settings)

You do not need to back up music files and photos or videos taken with the camera. They are
backed up automatically to the device's memory card.
You may incur additional data transmission charges when you restore applications from
Google Play™.
