Android

 

Android encryption can take hours to complete and will need to be done with a full battery. Keep in mind that you can only reverse encryption by performing a factory reset on your phone.

 


  1. Enable your lock screen PIN or password: Open Settings > tap Security > tap Screen Lock > Tap PIN or Password
  2. Plug in your phone and do not unplug/interrupt the encryption process (you will lose data from your phone)
  3. Open Settings > tap Security > tap Encrypt phone/tablet under Encryption

Windows Phone:

You have to connect to an Exchange server that pushes an ActiveSync profile that requires encryption
