Encrypting data on HTC First
You can encrypt data such as your online accounts, settings, music files and other
media. After encryption, you will need to enter the screen lock PIN or password to
turn on your phone and access the data.
§ Set a lock screen PIN or password before encrypting your data.
§ Fully charge the battery and keep HTC First connected to the power adapter
during encryption. The encryption process takes about an hour.
§ You cannot undo encryption. If you want to return to an unencrypted phone, you
must perform a factory reset.

2. Tap Security > Encrypt phone.
3. Tap Encrypt phone.
4. Enter the lock screen PIN or password, and tap Next.
