On your phone, use HTC Backup to do a daily backup to the cloud so you can easily restore your content

HTC Backup uses your Google Drive or Dropbox storage to keep your content and settings. It can back
up and restore the following:

wallpaper, Home screen layout, and ringtones.

bookmarks, personal dictionary, Wi-Fi networks, free apps you’ve installed, grid size and sort
order on the Apps screen, and more. The backup can also include TV remotes and viewing
preferences.
