HTC Pro2 manual Protecting Your Device, Managing Memory, Adding and Removing Programs

Protecting Your Device

You can help keep your data more secure by requiring a password every time the device is turned on.

To set a device password:

1.Tap Start > Settings > All Settings.

2.On the Personal tab, tap Lock.

3.Select the Promptifdeviceunusedfor check box, and then specify the idle time before the device requires a password.

4.In the Password type box, select the type of password you would like to use.

Tip

If your device is configured to connect to a network, use an alphanumeric password for increased security.

5.Enter the password in both the Password and Confirm boxes.

6.Tap ok. The next time the device is turned on, you will be prompted to enter your password.

Notes

•To ensure that you can always make emergency calls, do not begin your password with the digits of your local emergency number.

•If you entered a hint, the hint will be displayed after the wrong password is entered five times.

•Each time a wrong password is entered, the device response time gets longer until the device appears to be not responding.

•If you forget your password, you can hard reset or clear the device memory. Before you do this, make sure you back up your data and files so that you can restore them back to your device. For more information about hard resetting the device and clearing the memory, see “Resetting Your Device” on page 123.

Managing Memory

To see how much memory is available for use:

1.Tap Start > Settings > All Settings.

2.On the System tab, tap Memory > Main tab. The amount of memory allocated to data storage versus program storage is displayed, as well as the amount of memory in use versus the available memory.

Adding and Removing Programs

Additional programs that you purchased can be installed and uninstalled on your device. Your device does not allow you to uninstall most of the preinstalled programs.

Note

Before you purchase additional programs for your device, make sure that they are compatible with your device.

Before you launch the program installer, check first whether the installer can directly run on Windows Mobile or needs to be run on a computer.

To install a program directly on your device:

1.If the installer is a .cab file, directly download or copy it to your device.

2.On your device, open File Explorer and navigate to the installer file.

3.Tap the file to launch the installer.
