Synchronising your phone
After you’ve installed and set up HTC Sync, you can sync your phone with your computer.
Synchronising your phone with your computer automatically
Do the following first to make sure your phone will sync automatically with your computer:
1.
Press HOME > MENU, and then tap Settings > Applications > Development.
2.
Make sure the USB debugging check box is selected.
Whenever you connect your phone to your computer, synchronisation starts automatically.
Wait for the sync process to finish.
Synchronising your phone with your computer manually
Connect your phone to the computer with the supplied USB cable. Or, if your phone is
already connected, press and hold the status bar and drag your finger down to open the
Notifications panel. Then tap the status that shows “Select to change USB connection
type“.
On the Connect to PC screen in your phone., tap HTC Sync and then tap Done.
On your computer, check and make sure that the HTC Sync icon at the bottom-right
side of the screen appears in green which means that your phone is connected to HTC
Sync.
On your phone, tap Sync now.
Downloading the latest HTC Sync upgrade
Visit the HTC support website (www.htc.com/support) from time to time to check for the
most recent HTC Sync upgrade so you can download and install it on your computer.
After installing the latest upgrade, set up HTC Sync again to recognise and sync with your
phone. Follow the steps in “Setting up HTC Sync to recognise your phone” and “Setting up
synchronisation”.
Installing apps from your computer to your phone
If you have applications (.apk files) on your computer, you can use HTC Sync to install them
to your phone. We strongly recommend you install only applications that you trust.

On your phone, press HOME > MENU, tap Settings > Applications, and then select the
Unknown sources check box to allow applications from your computer to be installed to
your phone.
You only have to do this step once. You do not need to do this step again next time you install
another application from your computer to your phone.
2. Connect your phone to the computer with the supplied USB cable. Or, if your phone is
already connected, press and hold the status bar and drag your finger down to open the
Notifications panel. Then tap the status that shows “Select to change USB connection
type“.
