Encrypt Phone
You can encrypt all the data on your phone
such as Google Accounts, application data,
music and other media, downloaded
information, and so on. If you do, you must
enter a numeric PIN or password each time
you power on your phone.
WARNING!
Encryption is irreversible. The only way to
revert to an unencrypted phone is to perform a
factory data reset, which erases all your data.
Encryption provides additional protection in
case your phone is stolen, and may be
required or recommended in some
organizations. Consult your system
administrator before turning it on. In many
cases the PIN or password you set for
encryption is controlled by the system
administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as
follows:
Set a PIN or password as screen lock.
Charge the battery.
Keep the phone connected to the charger.
Schedule an hour or more for the
encryption process. You must not interrupt
it or you will lose some or all of your data.
