Some apps transfer data in the background when you're not
viewing them — to stop an app from doing this, tap it and
then tick Restrict app background data.
To turn off background data use for all apps, just tap
Menu > Restrict background data.
Note: usage information is provided to help you manage
your phone. This may not match the amounts charged by
your service provider, as they're not measured in the same
way.
To choose which SIM card is used for data services tap
Apps
>
Settings > SIM cards > Mobile data and select
a network.
Your cloud
One account with access to everything, everywhere —
phone, tablet, computer.
Sync your Google account
When you log in to the same Google account, all devices can
get to all the same apps, contacts, films, books and music
from Google Play. Plus you share the same Gmail, Google
Calendar™ and Google Mobile™. To add accounts to your
phone, tap Apps
>
Settings > Accounts, then tap
Add account > Google.
Phone & tablet
Your Android™ phone and tablet can work together to help
you get the most out of both:
• Transfer media and files: copy files to your phone and
transfer them to other devices — see
• Phone hotspot: if you have a Wi-Fi tablet, turn your phone
into a Wi-Fi hotspot to let your tablet access the Internet
anywhere — see
"Wi-Fi
hotspot".
• Bluetooth™ accessories: if you have a Bluetooth keyboard
or other accessories to use with your tablet, remember
you can use them with your phone, too. To connect them,
see
"Bluetooth
wireless".
Memory card
You can choose to use your SD card as portable or internal
storage:
• Portable storage: store your pictures, videos, audio and
other media files. You can remove the SD card at any time
and transfer it to another device.
• Internal storage: in addition to your media files, you can
store downloaded apps and games. The SD card acts as
an extension of the internal storage of your phone.
After you have inserted an SD card into your phone, you will
be prompted to select either portable or internal storage.
To manually set your SD card to internal storage, tap
Apps
>
Settings > Storage & USB, then select your
SD card and tap Menu > Settings > Format as internal.
