Setting up HTC Wildfire S for the first time

When you switch on HTC Wildfire S for the first time, you’ll be asked to set it up. You can choose your language, how you want to connect to the Internet, and whether you want your current location to be automatically detected. If you still have personal contacts and calendar events stored on your old phone, you can easily transfer them to HTC Wildfire S through Bluetooth as well.

Be sure to sign in to your Google® Account so you can use Google apps like Gmailand Android Market. You can also set up your other email accounts, favorite social networks like Facebook® and Twitter, and more.

Just follow the onscreen instructions and you’ll be up and running in no time.

Some features that need to connect to the Internet such as location-based services and auto-sync of your online accounts may incur extra data fees. Don’t worry. You can enable or disable them in settings later on.
