Fingerprints & security
GENERAL
Fingerprints
Allows you to set up fingerprint impressions that will unlock
your phone's screen, allow access to content, and/or allow you to pay using
your device.
NOTE
If your phone doesn’t have a default payment app, go to Play Store and search for
available payment apps.
Content lock
Allows you to set a lock type (password or pattern) for your
Qu and Gallery files.
ENCRYPTION
Encrypt SD card
Allows you to encrypt or decrypt an external microSD
card data. Encrypted data is not accessible on other devices.
Secure start-up
Enable this option to immediately lock the screen when
you turn on the device to help keep it secure. Unlock the screen by entering
the current unlock method, such as a Knock Code, pattern, password, or
PIN. Until the screen is unlocked, you cannot receive most phone calls, text
messages, alarms, notifications, and more.
NOTES
•
If the password is entered incorrectly more than a specific number of times, the
device will automatically factory reset. Be sure to remember the password.
•
If you forget your decryption password, you must factory reset the device to use
it again. Resetting will delete all of the user data saved before the reset.
SIM CARD LOCK
Set up SIM card lock
Allows you to lock your SIM card with a PIN. After it’s
set, you can change it in this menu.
PASSWORDS
Make passwords visible
Enable this option to briefly show each character
of the password as you type it so you can see what you’ve entered.
PHONE ADMINISTRATION
Phone administrators

administrators.
