PIN & security

PIN lock - For extra security, you can require that a PIN must be typed before the

 

screen unlocks. To set this up, tap the PIN & security setting, then turn PIN lock

 

on. You’ll be prompted to create a four-digit PIN. If you later turn PIN lock off,

 

your PIN will be forgotten.

 

Note: After you’ve set PIN lock on, if you can’t remember your PIN, you can still

 

place an emergency call by tapping Emergency call on the lock screen. After

 

eight incorrect attempts at typing your PIN, you’ll be prompted to type a specific

 

number to continue trying (this provides a fail-safe in case your phone is

 

bumped or if children are playing with it). You’ll have a total of ten attempts to

 

retry your PIN before your phone data is erased.

 

Set/change PIN - Once you turn PIN lock on, type a PIN at the prompt (must be

 

four digits). You’ll be asked to type it again to confirm. Once you’ve set a PIN,

 

you can change it from the PIN & security screen by tapping Change PIN. Note

 

that once you set a PIN, you’ll have to type the PIN before you can change any of

 

the PIN lock settings.

 

Message display - By default, new message notifications will pop up when your

 

screen is in PIN lock, showing new message text. If you want to hide the text in

 

new message notifications during screen lock, turn this setting off.

 

Time to pin-lock- If you’ve set PIN lock on, then you can choose a timeout that

 

starts once your screen has locked. Choose from:

 

instant (default setting) - PIN lock will begin as soon as your screen locks.

 

1 min - PIN lock will begin 1 minute after your screen locks.

 

5 mins - PIN lock will begin 5 minutes after your screen locks.

 

15 mins - PIN lock will begin 15 minutes after your screen locks.

Auto-brightness

Turn auto-brightness on to conserve battery power. When off, you can adjust the

 

brightness manually, from Min (dim) to Max (bright).

Note: The backlight on your screen will automatically dim after 30 seconds of inactivity. (You can’t adjust this setting.)
