Turning Battery management on or off
Battery management helps protect your battery if you leave your device plugged in for extended
periods.
Batteries can deteriorate if they are left plugged in at full charge for long periods of time, like if you
want to use HTC 5G Hub for fixed wireless service in your home. Battery management
automatically adjusts your battery charge to 70% if your device is plugged in longer than 3 days. This
can help prolong the life span of your battery. If you want to use HTC 5G Hub as a portable hotspot,
or you use it for fixed wireless but plan to take a trip soon, make sure to disable this mode.
1. Go to Settings. See on page 18.Getting to know your settings
2. BatteryTap .Battery management
3. On/OffTap the Battery management switch to turn it on or off.
Adjusting the charge level to a lower setting can help prolong the usable life span of your battery
even further. From the Battery management screen, tap to adjust.Select charge level
Tips for extending battery life
How long the battery can last before it needs recharging depends on how you use HTC 5G Hub. Try
out some of these tips to help increase battery life.
Use the power management features
§Turn and on in Settings.Battery saver Battery Manager
§Monitoring your battery usage helps identify what's using the most power so you can choose
what to do about it. For details, see on page 37.Checking battery usage
Manage your connections
§Turn off wireless connections such as mobile data or Bluetooth when not in use.
§Turn on Airplane mode when you don't need any wireless connections and you don't want to
receive messages.
Manage your display
Lowering the brightness, letting the display sleep when not in use, and keeping it simple helps save
battery power.
35 Battery
§Lower the screen brightness when you don't need it. See on page 60.Screen brightness
§Set the screen timeout to a shorter time. See on page 60.Setting when to turn off the screen
§Changing your wallpaper to a plain, black background can help a little. The less color is
displayed, the less battery is used. See on page 25.Changing your Home screen wallpaper
Manage your apps
§Battery manager helps extend battery standby time. See onBattery optimization for apps
page 37.
§Install the latest software and application updates. Updates sometimes include battery
performance improvements.
§Uninstall or disable apps that you never use.
Many apps run processes or sync data in the background even when you're not using them. If
there are apps that you don't need anymore, uninstall them.
If an app came preloaded and can't be uninstalled, disabling the app can still prevent it from
continuously running or syncing data. See on page 54.Disabling an app
Limit background data and sync
Background data and sync can use a lot of battery power if you have many apps syncing data in the
background. It’s recommended not to let apps sync data too often. Determine which apps can be set
with longer sync times, or sync manually.
§In Settings, tap and check what types of data are being synced in your onlineAccounts
accounts. When the battery is starting to run low, temporarily disable syncing some data.
§If you have many email accounts, consider prolonging the sync time of some accounts.
§When you’re not traveling from one place to another, sync weather updates of only your
current location, rather than in all of your named cities. Open the Weather app, and then tap
to edit and remove unneeded cities.
§Choose widgets wisely.
Some widgets constantly sync data. Consider removing the ones that are not important from
your Home screen.
§In Google Play Store, tap , and then tap Settings Auto-update apps Don't auto-update
apps if you're fine with updating apps from Google Play Store manually.
Other tips
To squeeze in a little bit more battery power, try these tips:
§Tone down the notification and media volume.
§Minimize the use of sound feedback. In Settings, tap and choose which ones you don'tSound
need and can disable.
§Check your app settings as you may find more options to optimize the battery.

Storage
Freeing up storage space
As you use HTC 5G Hub, you'll accumulate data and fill its storage capacity over time. Here are
some tips on how to free up storage space on this HTC device.
Back up data and files
Keep only the most recent data in your apps and files that you often need to use. You can back up
your other data and files. See on page 44.Backup and reset
Remove or disable apps
Uninstall apps that you've downloaded if no longer need them. See on page 56.Uninstalling an app
Preinstalled apps can be disabled when you're not using them. See on page 54.Disabling an app
Manually free up space
In Settings, tap Storage —or tap Free up space Storage Internal shared storage Free up space
if you have a storage card inserted. HTC 5G Hub then checks the internal storage and then suggest
items that you may want to delete.
Move apps to the storage card
Third-party apps that you've downloaded and installed can be moved to the storage card if you've
set up the card as internal storage. See Moving apps and data between the built-in storage and
storage card Moving an app to or from the storage card on page 41 and on page 42.
Manage photos and videos
If you copied or downloaded photos and videos to HTC 5G Hub, you can do the following:
§After editing a photo or trimming a video, the original file is kept. Delete original files or
move them elsewhere, such as to your computer.
§If you're only sending videos through MMS, use a lower resolution. Hi-res video takes up
more space.
§Turn on to clean up old photos and videos.Storage manager
39 Storage
Types of storage
Below are the types of storage where app data and your files can be stored.
Internal storage
This is the built-in storage which contains the Android system, preinstalled apps, text messages, and
cached data from the apps. You can also install apps that you've downloaded and capture
screenshots to this storage.
Storage card
Use your storage card as a removable storage to store and access your media and other files on
HTC 5G Hub, or set it up as an extension of the internal storage. See Should I use the storage card as
removable or internal storage? on page 40.
USB storage
You can connect an external USB device—such as a USB flash drive or an SD card reader—and use it
as your removable storage device. You may need to purchase an appropriate adapter to connect your
USB storage device to HTC 5G Hub.
Should I use the storage card as removable or internal
storage?
Use your storage card as removable storage when you have content on the card, such as media or
photos, that you don't want to lose. If you have a brand new storage card, choose whether to use it as
removable storage or set it up as an extension of the internal storage.
Removable storage
Use a new storage card as removable storage to be able to access the card's contents on HTC 5G Hub
or other Android devices.
Internal storage
Set up a new storage card as internal storage for more privacy and secure use. This encrypts and
formats the storage card to work just like the internal storage.
This also expands the internal storage space since:
§Captured screenshots, photos, media, and other files will be stored on the storage card.
§Third-party apps that you installed and their data can be moved between the built-in storage
and storage card.
After setting up the storage card as internal storage, the card can only be used on HTC 5G Hub
where it has been formatted.
40 Storage
Setting up your storage card as internal storage
When you insert a storage card that has not been used on HTC 5G Hub before, the card will be
mounted as removable storage by default. If the storage card is new or doesn't have content you
want to keep, you can format it as internal storage for HTC 5G Hub.
§See on page 40 to find out theShould I use the storage card as removable or internal storage?

to the built-in storage. See Moving apps and data between the built-in storage and storage card
on page 41.
