Backing up and restoring content
Generally, you should not save photos, videos and other personal content solely on
the internal memory of your device. If your device is damaged, lost or stolen, the data
stored on its internal memory may be impossible to recover. It is recommended to
use the Xperia™ Companion software to make backups which save your data safely
to an external device. This method is especially recommended if you are updating
your device software to a newer Android version.
