Why reset your phone?

If you’re content with your phone’s current performance and battery situation, this procedure is probably not necessary. For everyone else that feels their device “ain’t what it used to be” or are plagued by more serious issues – this could be for you. App downloads, updates, firmware upgrades, etc often add extra baggage which can make your smartphone sluggish. A reset deletes all files and reverts your device back to its factory settings. This can deliver a noticeable improvement to both performance and battery life.

Backup Your Data: 

Hey...back up just a second. Make sure you backup first.

Don’t get too excited now. The next series of steps will delete ALL user files on your device. This means those hilarious photos/videos of your kitten will be gone for good! While many apps are cloud-based and backup their own data, make sure you have a backup of your important stuff. Here’s a few options:

Google Backup – is a reliable, easy option. Head to settings, then go to Backup & Reset. Make sure the

‘Backup My Data’ check-box is selected. This won’t back everything up however – photos, game progress, some logins, etc won’t be saved.

Backup Apps – There are a variety of backup apps available on Google Play. We recommend doing a little research on the best option here. The space seems to change quickly and some options may not work well with your version of Android. Helium currently has good reviews.

Manual Backup over USB – An oldie but a goodie. Connect your phone to your computer and backup all your photos, contacts, etc to your desktop. There are a few desktop apps for Windows/Mac which can help with this too.

OK, so you’re 100% sure everything is safe? Let’s reset your phone.

Since the release of Android 4.4, the ‘factory data reset’ option (accessible in the settings menu) performs the same job as a ‘hard’ reset. All of your user files, apps, etc will be deleted and your device will revert to a factory fresh state. Here’s the steps:
