The information we store on our phones today is immense, since most of us generally use it as our personal assistant. We take our mobile wherever we go, and through it we manage our social networks, access our email, our bank accounts, or take photos and videos ..
All this data is being stored gradually in the terminal and over time the information that a mobile phone can have is really alarming. In addition, applications such as Google Maps are registering all those places that we are visiting, if we do not disable this option.
In the case that we want to sell or transfer our phone or simply clean it, it is recommended to perform a factory reset so that it looks like it is new. This means that we will lose all this data, so if we want to keep them we have to make a backup of the phone. In addition to performing a reset, you can solve different faults such as those detailed below..
Common mistakes
- Malfunction of items such as the camera, speakers, screen ...
- Problems with performance or battery
- Operating system or apps crash
