Backup and reset10.11
Back up my data
Mark the check box to back up your phone’s settings and other application
data to Google Servers, with your Google Account. If you replace your phone,
the settings and data you’ve backed up are restored onto the new phone the
first time you sign in with your Google Account. If you mark this option, a wide
variety of settings and data are backed up, including your Wi-Fi passwords,
bookmarks, a list of the applications you’ve installed, the words you’ve added
to the dictionary used by the onscreen keyboard, and most of the settings
that you configure with the Settings application. If you unmark this option,
you stop backing up your settings, and any existing backups are deleted from
Google Servers.
Automatic restore
Mark the check box to restore your backed up settings or other data when you
reinstall an application.
Factory data reset
Phone reset will erase all of your personal data from internal phone
storage, including information about your Google Account, any other
accounts, your system and application settings, and any downloaded
applications. Resetting the phone does not erase any system software
updates you’ve downloaded or any files on your microSD card, such as music
or photos. If you reset the phone in this way, you’re prompted to re-enter the
same kind of information as when you first started Android.
When you are unable to power on your phone, there is another way to perform
a factory data reset by using hardware keys. Hold down the Volume up key and
press the Power key at same time until the screen lights up.
Accounts10.12
Use the Accounts settings to add, remove, and manage your Google and other
supported accounts. You also use these settings to control how and whether
all applications send, receive, and synchronise data on their own schedules,
and whether all applications can synchronise user data automatically.
Gmail, Google Calendar, and other applications may also have their own
settings to control how they synchronise data; see the sections on those
applications for details.
Manage accounts10.12.1
The rest of this screen lists the Google Accounts and other accounts you’ve
added to the phone. If you touch an account in this screen, its account screen
opens.
This screen contains different options, depending on the kind of account. For
Google Accounts, it lists the kinds of data you can synchronise to the phone,
with checkboxes so you can turn synchronizing on and off for each kind. You
can also press the Menu key and touch Sync now to synchronise data. Touch
Remove Account to remove the account along with all its data (contacts,
mail, settings, and so on).
Date & time10.13
Use Date & time settings to customise your preferences for how date and time
are displayed.
Automatic
Mark the check box to use network-provided values. Or unmark to set all
values manually.
Set date
Touch to open a dialog where you can manually set the phone’s date.
