Data Backup: Prevent Data Loss
Ever worry that your Phone will stop working and cause you to lose important data? Back up
your data regularly to prevent data loss and increase your peace of mind.
There are four ways to back up your Phone's data:
l microSD card: If your Phone supports microSD cards, you can back up your data to a
microSD card at any time, giving you a convenient way to prevent data loss.
l Device internal storage: You can back up smaller files to your device's internal storage.
l USB storage device: If you're running out of space in your Phone's internal storage, you can
connect your Phone to a USB storage device using a USB OTG cable to back up your data.
Back Up Your Data to a microSD Card

device to your new Phone? If your Phone supports microSD cards, you can back up your data to
