Setting up HTC Desire 825 for the first time
When you switch on HTC Desire 825 for the first time—or after you've done a factory reset—you’ll
be asked to set it up.
You can enable TalkBack to navigate by voice feedback before selecting the language. Press and
hold two fingers on the screen until you hear a message saying that accessibility mode is enabled.
Walk through the on-device setup to choose your Internet connection, sign in to your Google
Account, set up device protection for HTC Desire 825, and more.
Use Android Backup Service if you've used it to back up your old phone before. On the Get your apps
& data screen, tap
Restore from this backup
. From the menu, choose your old phone if you want to
restore your apps from a previous phone that was backed up using Android Backup Service.
Otherwise, tap
Set up as new device
.
Some features that need to connect to the Internet such as location-based services and auto-sync
of your online accounts may incur extra data fees. To avoid incurring data fees, disable these
features under Settings. For more information on location services, see
