How to Factory Reset Ericsson Mobile

We can guide you through the process of performing a factory reset on a Ericsson mobile device. Keep in mind that performing a factory reset will erase all data and settings on your phone, so make sure you have a backup of your important data before proceeding.

Here’s how you can do it:

Method 1: Using the Phone Settings

1. Backup Your Data: Before you begin, ensure you’ve backed up all your important data, as a factory reset will erase everything.
2. Open Settings: Open the “Settings” app on your Ericsson device.
3. System: Scroll down and select the “System” option.
4. Reset Options: Tap on “Reset options” or “System > Reset options,” depending on your device’s software version.
5. Erase All Data (Factory Reset): Choose the “Erase all data (factory reset)” option. You might need to enter your device’s PIN, pattern, or password to proceed.
6. Reset Phone: Confirm the action by selecting “Erase all data” or “Reset phone.” Your device will warn you again that this action will remove all data.
7. Enter Your Password: If prompted, enter your device’s password, PIN, or pattern to proceed.
8. Erase Everything: Finally, select “Erase everything” to initiate the factory reset process. Your device will restart and begin the reset process.

Method 2: Using Recovery Mode

If you’re unable to access the settings or if your device is experiencing issues that prevent you from using the settings menu, you can perform a factory reset through recovery mode. Here’s how:

1. Power Off: Turn off your Ericsson device.
2. Enter Recovery Mode: Press and hold the volume up button and the power button simultaneously until the Ericsson logo appears. Then release both buttons. This will boot your device into recovery mode.
3. Wipe Data: In recovery mode, use the volume buttons to navigate and the power button to select. Choose the “Wipe data/factory reset” option. Confirm the action when prompted.
4. Confirm and Reboot: After the reset is complete, select “Reboot system now” to restart your device.

Remember that the specific steps and options might slightly differ based on your device’s software version. If you’re unsure or need more accurate instructions, I recommend visiting the official Ericsson support website or referring to your device’s user manual for detailed and up-to-date information.
