Mobile phones have become indispensable devices for most of us, as we increasingly store more information in them and use them for more things. They have become our personal camera , our preferred way to communicate with our contacts through social networks and instant messaging applications such as WhatsApp, our alarm clock or our web browser on many occasions..
This means that the data that is stored is quite important and large, in addition to the memory of the device may be insufficient on many occasions. This can cause the phone to stop working in the right conditions and therefore we want to perform a factory reset, to leave it again as new. This can solve different errors.
Common mistakes
- Malfunction of items such as the camera, speakers, screen ...
- Problems with performance or battery
- Operating system or apps crash
Another reason why we want to perform this reset, may be because we are going to sell or give away the phone, and we do not want any data left of us..
Note
Remember that this process is irreversible, and therefore once done you will not be able to recover the deleted information. It is therefore recommended to make a previous backup, to be able to restore it if necessary.
