Don't have an Internet connection on your old phone?
Don't worry. On your old phone, turn on Wi‑Fi
®
and connect to the hotspot
that you see on your new HTC phone. You'll then need to download the HTC
Transfer Tool from an HTC webpage on your web browser.
1. After turning on Wi‑Fi, connect your old phone to the hotspot that's
shown on your new phone (for example, "HTC Transfer Tool 1234").
2. Go to Settings > Security, and then select the Unknown sources option
to allow the download and installation of the tool through your web
browser.
3. Access the HTC webpage on your web browser. Depending on the type
of Android phone that you have:
§ The web browser automatically opens to the HTC webpage if you're
using an HTC phone.
§ You need to slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap Sign in
to Wi-Fi network if you're using another Android phone.
4. Tap the download button on the HTC webpage.
5. Slide the Notifications panel open again, and wait until you see a
notification that shows the Transfer_tool.apk has been downloaded.
6. Tap the Transfer_tool.apk notification to install the HTC Transfer Tool.
7. After installation is complete, open the HTC Transfer Tool.
8. Choose the types of content you want to transfer, and then tap Start.
9. Wait for the transfer to finish.
After installing the HTC Transfer Tool, go back to Settings > Security and
make sure to clear the Unknown sources option. This can help protect your
phone from installing other insecure apps from the Web.
