Getting the battery to last longer
How long the battery can last before it needs recharging depends on how you use
HTC Phone. HTC Phone power management helps to increase battery life.
In times when you need to extend the battery life more, try out some of these tips:
Check your battery usage
Monitoring your battery usage helps you identify what's using the most power so you
can choose what to do about it. For details, see Checking battery usage on page 38.
Manage your connections
§ Turn off wireless connections you're not using.
To turn on or off connections such as mobile data, Wi‑Fi, or Bluetooth, go to
Settings and tap their On/Off switches.
§ Turn GPS on only when a precise location is needed.
To prevent some apps from using GPS in the background, keep the GPS
satellites setting off. Turn it on only when you need your precise location while
using navigation or location-based apps. Go to Settings and tap Location to
turn this setting on or off.
§ If the Sleep mode option in Settings > Power is enabled, at low peak times, your
phone will turn off the data connection after the screen has been off for 15
minutes and there's no network activity (no downloads, streaming, or data
usage). The data connection resumes when you switch the screen back on.
Manage your display
Lowering the brightness, letting the display sleep when not in use, and keeping it
simple helps save battery power.
§ Use automatic brightness (the default), or manually lower the brightness.
§ Set the screen timeout to a shorter time.
§ Don't use a live wallpaper for your Home screen. Animation effects are nice to
show off to other people but they drain your battery.
Changing your wallpaper to a plain, black background can also help a little. The
less color is displayed, the less battery is used.
§ Set the web browser to auto dim the screen while webpages load. Open the
Internet app, and then tap > Settings > Accessibility > Dim screen during
page loading.
For more details, see Settings and security on page 161 and Personalizing on page
57.
40
Your first week with your new phone
Manage your apps
§ Install the latest software and application updates. Updates sometimes include
battery performance improvements.
§ Uninstall or disable apps that you never use.
Many apps run processes or sync data in the background even when you're not
using them. If there are apps that you don't need anymore, uninstall them.
If an app came preloaded and can't be uninstalled, disabling the app can still
prevent it from continuously running or syncing data. In Settings > Apps, swipe
to the All tab, tap the app, and then tap Disable.
Limit background data and sync
Background data and sync can use a lot of battery power if you have many apps
syncing data in the background. It’s recommended not to let apps sync data too
often. Determine which apps can be set with longer sync times, or sync manually.
§ In Settings, tap Accounts & sync and check what types of data are being synced
in your online accounts. When the battery is starting to run low, temporarily
disable syncing some data.
§ If you have many email accounts, consider prolonging the sync time of some
accounts.
In the Mail app, select an account, tap > Settings > Sync, Send & Receive, and
then adjust the settings under Sync schedule.
§ When you’re not traveling from one place to another, sync weather updates of
only your current location, rather than in all of your named cities. Open the
Weather app, and then tap > Edit to remove unneeded cities.
§ Choose widgets wisely.
Some widgets constantly sync data. Consider removing the ones that are not
important from your Home screen.
§ In Play Store, tap > Settings, and then clear Auto-add widgets to avoid
automatically adding Home screen widgets whenever you've installed new apps.
Also tap Auto-update apps > Do not auto-update apps if you're fine with
updating apps from Play Store manually.
Other tips
To squeeze in a little bit more battery power, try these tips:
§ Tone down the ringtone and media volume.
§ Minimize the use of vibration or sound feedback. In Settings, tap Sound and
choose which ones you don't need and can disable.
§ Check your apps’ settings as you may find more options to optimize the battery.

Using power saver mode
Power saver mode helps to increase battery life. It reduces the usage of phone
features that drain the battery such as the display and data connection.
1. With two fingers, swipe down from the status bar to open Quick settings.
2. Tap the Power saver tile to turn power saver mode on or off.
If you want to choose which phone features to conserve power for, tap

If power saver mode's Data connection option is selected, HTC Phone
automatically disconnects from the mobile network after 15 minutes when the
screen is off and the data connection is idle (no download activity, streaming, or
data usage). It reconnects and then disconnects periodically when the data
connection is idle to save battery power.
Keep in mind though that the Sleep mode option for the data connection in
Settings > Power, when enabled, overrides power saver mode.

Types of storage
Want to know what types of storage you can use for your apps, data, and files?
HTC Phone has these storage types:
Phone
storage
This storage combines both the internal storage, where apps, email,
data, and text messages are stored, and the file storage, where photos,
videos, and music files are kept.
When you are running out of phone storage, you can free up space by
uninstalling apps, changing download settings, or moving files to your
storage card, your computer, or an online storage service.
Storage
card
Use a storage card for storing more files. You can also set apps such as
Camera to store directly to the card.
USB
storage
When you plug in an external USB storage device (such as a USB flash
drive or an SD card reader), you can view photos and videos stored on
the device right from Gallery and play songs stored on the device in
Music. You can also open PDFs and edit Office documents.
You need a special cable to connect HTC Phone and a USB storage
device. HTC Phone supports USB storage devices (except portable hard
drives) up to 64 GB.
Online
storage
If you're using an online storage account that's accessible from HTC
Phone, you can store your files to your online storage.
Copying files to or from HTC Phone
You can copy your music, photos, and other files to HTC Phone.
Save and close your files before copying them from your computer to HTC Phone,
or vice versa.
1. Connect HTC Phone to the computer using the supplied USB cable. You'll see
options for viewing or importing files on the computer screen.
2. Choose to view files.
3. Copy the files from your computer to HTC Phone, or vice versa.

Storage
Making more storage space
As you use HTC Phone, you'll accumulate data and fill its storage capacity over time.
Here are some tips on how to increase storage space.
Run the storage wizard
Easily free up space in the phone storage by cleaning the application cache,
uninstalling apps, and changing settings so that only the most recent data is kept. In
Settings, tap Storage > Make more space.
Store files in Dropbox
Photos, email attachments, and other documents can be stored in Dropbox and
accessed anywhere you are. You can set the Camera app to automatically upload
photos to Dropbox.
Dropbox is a third-party app and is not provided by or associated with HTC
Corporation.
Manage photos and videos
§ Set the Camera app to automatically upload to a photo-sharing site or online
storage. When you reach the storage limit, just delete all your photos. You can
retrieve them from the photo-sharing site or online storage when needed.
§ After taking continuous camera shots, keep only the best shot and discard the
rest.
§ After editing a photo or trimming a video, the original file is kept. You can delete
original files or move them to online storage or to your computer.
§ If you are only sending videos through MMS, use a lower resolution. Highresolution video takes up more space. In Camera settings, tap Video Quality to
change the resolution.
Back up apps data
Keep only the most recent data from apps on HTC Phone. You can back up calendars,
contacts, and bookmarks or export text messages, and personal dictionaries.
Disable some apps
Apps, even if not used often, may be running in the background and downloading
data into the phone storage. If the app cannot be removed, you can disable it. In
Settings, tap Apps and then swipe to All. Select the app you want to disable, and then
tap Disable.
97
Storage
Encrypting data on HTC Phone
You can encrypt data such as your online accounts, settings, music files and other
media. After encryption, you will need to enter the screen lock PIN or password to
turn on your phone and access the data.
§ Set a lock screen PIN or password before encrypting your data.
§ Fully charge the battery and keep HTC Phone connected to the power adapter
during encryption. The encryption process takes about an hour.
§ You cannot undo encryption. If you want to return to an unencrypted phone, you
must perform a factory reset.
1. Go to Settings, and then tap Storage.
2. Tap Phone storage encryption.
3. Tap OK.

If you send a calendar event or contact, it is normally added directly to the
corresponding application on the receiving device.
If you send another file type to a Windows computer, it is normally saved in the
Bluetooth Exchange folder within your personal document folders.
§ On Windows XP, the path may be: C:\Documents and Settings\[your
username]\My Documents\Bluetooth Exchange
§ On Windows Vista, the path may be: C:\Users\[your username]\Documents
§ On Windows 7, the path may be: C:\Users\[your username]\Documents
\Bluetooth Exchange Folder
§ On Windows 8, the path may be: C:\Users\[your username]\Documents
If you send a file to another device, the saved location may depend on the file type.
For example, if you send an image file to another mobile phone, it may be saved in a
folder named “Images”.
