PURPOSE OF FACTORY RESET

September 12, 2016 Android Fix Edit

Common reasons to perform a factory reset include:

to fix a malfunctioning electronic device
to remove a file or virus that is difficult to remove
to clear the configuration and settings of the electronic device to the default settings
to clear the memory space on the electronic device
to remove personal information from the device before selling or giving away the device ^[3]

Note: a factory reset may only hide data from the operating system so it appears it no longer exists. This is not the same effect as data deletion, and may not therefore be wholly suitable in situations where the device changes ownership.
