Accounts and synchronisation
Accounts and synchronisation
To synchronise information saved on your phone with applications on other devices, you must
register your phone to an account. Using an account, you can synchronise your phone's e-mail
directory with your smartphone or the e-mail program on your computer, for example.
You can use different accounts for different services.
u
Google account
For Google services such as Gmail™, ™ or YouTube™ and for downloading apps from
Google Play™ you need a Google account. A Google account generally consists of a Gmail
address and a Google profile. It is also possible to set up a Google account with an alternative
(i.e. non-Google) e-mail address. If you did not set up a Google account when setting up your
phone, you can set one up in the
Settings
menu.
u
E-mail account
If you are not using Gmail for your e-mail, you need to register your phone to the mail server.
POP3 and IMAP4 mail servers are supported.
Additional services that you can download and set up for your account are available online (e.g.
for shared access to image and music directories on more than one device or for synchronising
your contact data with your provider's e-mail centre).
