Selecting Device Administrators

The Device Administration feature allows you to select one or more administration applications that control your phone for security purposes (for example, if your phone is lost or stolen).

These applications enforce remote or local phone security policies. Some of the features a device administration application might control are:

nSetting the number of failed password attempts before the phone is restored to factory settings.

nAutomatically locking the phone.

nRestoring factory settings on the phone.

Note: If a phone uses multiple enabled administration applications, the strictest policy is enforced.
