Wanting to protect personal information, today many put passwords on everything that is possible. Mobile phones did not stand aside either.
Instructions
Step 1
Setting passwords on phones is done in a similar way on all models. So to protect your mobile phone with a password, you need to follow these steps. Go to the main menu of your phone and select the "Settings" item (on some models this menu may be called "Options", "Parameters" or "Configuration"). Next, find the "Security Settings" option. In this menu, you can set a password not only for the phone, but also for its sections, including the SIM card itself.
Step 2
Go to the "Phone password" menu and enable the password activation option. Next, set the access code itself. After saving all the settings, when you turn on the device will require you to enter the password you specified. What should I do if when I try to set a password on my phone, the device requires entering the old code?
Step 3
If you are unable to set a password on your phone because the device asks for an old code, don't worry. By standard, all modern phones have a factory password in the form of four ones or four zeros. To assign a new password to your phone, when you ask for the old one, just enter the combination 1111 or 0000, then set your access code.
Try to choose the password that you will not forget (the birthday of your mother or girlfriend), but do not specify your date of birth as the password, because if necessary, anyone will have access to the phone.
