One of the most basic functions, and at the same time more important, practical and necessary in some cases, is to be able to reset the phone or make a hard reset to return to the initial configuration of the phone, to return to the configuration with which the device left the factory..
From a practical and functional point of view, it is important because this action can improve the performance of the phone in terms of speed and fluidity in a few minutes, solving some phone errors that arise over time by the amount of resources we use; Photos of Whastapp or Instagram that are saved by default, files, information of locations where we have been , navigation data and other applications that are stored in the phone's memory, and that are gradually consuming resources and slowing down processes.
Problems with battery performance, unexpected application shutdown, failures and malfunction of some elements such as the camera, the screen or the speakers, are some of the most common errors that can be solved if we submit our Xiaomi Mi A3 to a reset to factory settings..
Many of the applications we use every day, accumulate information that in many cases we will want to delete for privacy reasons, or because they reduce the performance of the device. If you are going to sell your phone, it will be a practical and necessary function, so that other people do not have access to your information.
However, you should keep in mind that during the process, unnecessary and important data will be erased equally. If you do not want to lose valuable information, you must make a backup. It will be very useful when changing phones and recovering or restoring the configuration from the new terminal, and retrieving useful information such as applications, photos and contacts.
