Simple steps to reset your Android phone

When your phone suddenly freezes or it takes longer for an installed app to launch or perform a command than usual, it typically calls for optimizing the device. However, it the optimization activity is not able to resolve the issues or the errors further aggravate and you are left with no other resolve, opting for factory reset may seem the smartest thing to do. Factory reset means performing a master reset on your phone that will bring it back to its original state.

So, in case you're facing similar issues on your Android phone, you could also consider performing the factory reset activity. Here’re the easy steps to reset your Android phone.

Go to Device Settings

First and foremost, go to the Settings option of the device. You can find it on the phone’s menu. Click on the 'Menu' button and from the many icons that will appear, scroll down to the 'Settings' option and click it.

Find the Factory Reset option

Tap on the “Reset Device” option

Tap on the “Reset Device” option. This will delete the data stored in the device and reset it to its original settings. In order to erase data from the SD card as well, you just have to check the box at the bottom of the screen. 

Confirm the action taken
