Why do you need a data reset?

Resetting device data (factory reset, hard reset, factory reset) is deleting all data from a smartphone or tablet: contacts, messages, downloaded applications, photos, music, mail settings, alarm clocks. After the reset, the smartphone or tablet returns to its factory state.

Typically, data reset is done in the following cases:

  • Before selling or transferring the device to another person;
  • If some problem occurs on the device that cannot be fixed by other means;
  • After updating the device software (firmware).

What to do before resetting your data

1. Copy important information from your device.

During the reset, the device memory will be cleared and all data will be deleted. If there is any important data, make a copy of it.

2. Remove your Google account from your device.

If you do not do this, then when you turn on the device after a reset, you will be asked for the account that was on the device before the reset. Without entering this account, you will not be able to turn on the device.

The first way to reset data is through the menu

The second way to reset data is using buttons

This method is used when a smartphone or tablet does not turn on or the screen is locked.


If your device doesn't turn on after resetting, you need a Google Account

There are many reasons why you may need to perform a hard reset on your Samsung Galaxy S Plus GT-I9001. Typically, this procedure is performed to restore the functionality of a system that has been damaged by viruses, deletion of system files, clumsy firmware updates, and many other things. It is very easy to perform a Hard Reset on any smartphone, but you should be aware of the consequences of this action and be able to make a backup copy of the system and files. We will talk about all this in detail below.


How to create a backup?

Attention! Resetting will erase all data on your Samsung Galaxy S Plus GT-I9001 phone. If you haven't saved backup copy contacts, images, videos, documents and everything else, then you must do this, otherwise you will lose all the personal information that was on the device.

To avoid losing your data, follow these recommendations.


Once you finish this, you can perform Hard Reset Samsung Galaxy S Plus GT-I9001.

How to do a hard reset on Samsung Galaxy S Plus GT-I9001 from the settings menu?

Attention! Due to FRP (Factory Reset Protection, that is, reset protection), Android will ask you to enter the login and password of the account that was assigned before the Hard Reset procedure. Therefore, if you plan to sell your smartphone, you need to log out of your Google account (Settings - Accounts - Google - Delete account) before resetting, so that the person who receives your phone can activate their profile on it.


Given the wide range of Android phones and the difficulty of describing the reset process for a specific model, we will show the guide using the example of three fundamentally different devices and firmwares:

  • Mi A1 on pure Android, which is also used in Nokia, Motorola, OnePlus (has a slightly redesigned system) and in all devices released under the Android One program;
  • Galaxy S7, which runs Samsung Experience. Let us remind you that the Korean corporation is the largest smartphone manufacturer in the world, so it makes sense to show this shell;
  • Redmi Note 5 on MIUI. The products of this company are in great demand in the CIS, so we could not ignore it.

The easiest way to perform a Hard Reset is through a special menu in the system parameters. Once again, we note that the location and name of the items may differ slightly depending on the phone used. The main thing is to find the main category for recovery and reset.

Xiaomi Mi A1 (pure Android 8.1 Oreo)


The device will reboot and you will have to go through the initial setup again as if it were a new phone.

Samsung Galaxy S7 (Samsung Experience shell)

Your phone will restart. All that remains is to configure it as after purchase.

Redmi Note 5 (MIUI firmware)


Attention! As you can see, the main thing is to find the “Reset” section. To ensure that you don’t get lost in all the parameters in search of the desired menu, it’s easier to enter the query “Reset” on the main page in the search box. Select the menu you are looking for from the list provided and you will be taken straight to it. And then everything is as in the instructions.

How to Hard Reset Samsung Galaxy S Plus GT-I9001 via Recovery?

This is a relevant method if there is a malfunction on the phone that prevents it from loading. It is for such cases that a recovery mode is needed, through which you will need to perform a Hard Reset.


Once the reset is complete, the device will reboot and display a standard welcome and settings window. Again, menu names may vary slightly depending on the model.
