10.2 Customizing Your Account Synchronization
You can configure background data use and synchronization options for all the applications on
your phone. You can also configure what kind of data you synchronize for each account.
For some accounts, synchronizing is two-directional; changes that you make to the information on
your mobile phone are made to the copy of that information on the web. Some accounts support
only one-way synchronize; the information on your mobile phone is read-only.

On the
Accounts & sync settings
screen, do the following:
• Select or clear the
Background data
check box to control whether applications and services
can transmit data when you are not working with them directly (that is, when they are running
in the background).

synchronizing events, and so on, until you touch the
Refresh
menu item or send an email.

Auto-sync
check box to control whether changes you make to information
on the phone or on the web are automatically synchronized with each other.
For example, when this option is selected, changes that you make in

on the phone
are automatically made in Google Contacts on the web.
