How to factory reset Android

If you’re at your wit’s end with your phone, screaming at it when it takes 10 minutes to start an app, it may be time for a factory reset. A factory reset will erase all of your phone’s data and restore it to the settings that it came with out of the box. Before you throw your phone in the trash, check out this guide.


Method 1 of 2: Basic Reset

    Find your Factory Reset option. Depending on your device, the “Factory data reset” feature may be located in one of two sections within the Settings app:
    • Select the “Privacy” settings, and scroll down to “Factory reset”

    Tap “Reset device” to delete all data and restore your device’s factory settings. The accounts that you are signed into will be displayed on the screen. By default, all your phone’s internal storage will be wiped.
    • If you want to erase all of the data on your phone’s SD card as well, check the box at the bottom of the screen.

    Confirm the process by selecting “Erase everything". This will delete all data and restore back to your device’s factory settings. Your phone will be as if it just came out of the box.

    Press and hold the recovery buttons. The buttons vary from device to device, so you may need to look up the instructions for your particular phone. You will need to press and hold the buttons for a few seconds. Some of the more common button combinations include:
    • Volume Up + Home + Power
    • Volume Down + Power
    • Home + Power
    • If none of the above work, do a web search for your phone’s model plus “recovery mode”.

    Select Factory Reset. Once the recovery menu opens, you can navigate the menu with the volume buttons. You may need to open the Recovery menu to find the Factory Reset mode. Use the Power button, some models use the camera button, to select your menu options.
    • You will be asked to confirm the factory reset.
