For a long time, mobile devices have become not only a center for oral and written communication, but also an area where various activities are carried out. Thanks to advances in mobile telephony technology, we can not only download and send multimedia content, but we can also send and receive a large amount of data, converting our phones into large information content stores..
All that information stored in the mobile generates as a result the supersaturation or collapse of the memory , thus producing slowness in the equipment and sometimes even malfunctioning. This series of problems makes it necessary to resort sometimes to a Hard Reset.
We want to show you below the correct steps that must be followed to successfully perform the reset of the Samsung Galaxy A40.
Considerations before carrying out the Hard Reset
As a previous step to the reset of the phone, it is necessary that you take into account the following considerations:
- It is recommended that if the phone turns on normally, the Hard Reset procedure starts from there.
- It is important to know that when resetting the equipment, all the information stored in it will be eliminated immediately. This includes of course email accounts, photographs, videos, application settings and even contacts.
We leave you the videotutorial with the steps described also to help you to do this process on any mobile of the Galaxy A series..
