Locking your smartphone

To protect your personal information, you can lock your smartphone. When your smartphone is locked, you need to enter your password to access any of your information or to use any of the features on your smartphone, including the phone. You can still make emergency calls, however, when your smartphone is locked.

IMPORTANT If you lock your smartphone, you must enter the exact password to unlock it. If you forget the password, you need to perform a hard reset to resume using your smartphone. Performing a hard reset deletes all the entries in your smartphone. However, you can restore all previously synchronized info the next time you sync (see Synchronizing information— the basics).
