The HTC One XC saw the light of the mobile phones’ market in August 2012. Given its launch date, this is one of the newest models from HTC, but it has one of the best designs you can get in a smartphone. It is much thiner and uses better materials which is why its design attracts a wide number of customers. If you are one of these, you’re most porbably keen on maintaining the high quality of this HTC phone.
In order to make sure that its memory is not overly charged and to generally improve its functionality, we recommend performing a master reset on the HTC One XC. This is a very useful operation that guarantees solving most software-related problems easily. These issues can include anything from fatal errors and frozen apps to hangs and slow responses to most commands. Before you consider taking our advice, make sure that you save all of the important information on the internal memory.
Running on the Ice Cream Sandwich OS, the phone comes with a capacitive screen and 16 GB internal memory. Being also equipped with a dual-core 15 GHz processor, this HTC has FM radio and is ideal for playing music. The smartphone has both a Wi-Fi hotspot and Bluetooth so you can easily connect to the internet and transfer documents from other devices.

Please don’t forget that the master reset process is going to restore the HTC One XC to factory settings. In order to avoid keeping possible software viruses, all data will be erased.

You can save these on your computer, a cloud or anywhere you’d like using the USB cable or the Phone Copy application.
