Additional Information

Backup Your Data: Before performing a hard reset, it’s crucial to back up any important data that you have on your Vivo V11i. This includes contacts, photos, videos, documents, and any other personal information you want to keep. You can back up your data to a Google account, to a computer via USB, or using Vivo’s built-in backup feature (if available).

Battery Level: Ensure that your Vivo V11i has sufficient battery charge before proceeding with a hard reset. It’s recommended to have at least 50% battery remaining to avoid any interruptions during the reset process.

Google Account Verification (FRP): After performing a factory reset on your Vivo V11i, you may encounter Google’s Factory Reset Protection (FRP) feature. This feature requires you to verify your Google account credentials (username and password) that were previously synced with the device to proceed with the setup. Make sure you remember these details to avoid being locked out of your phone.

Different Terms for Factory Reset: Depending on the Android version or customization by Vivo, the terminology for factory reset may vary. Look for options like “Factory data reset,” “Erase all data,” or “Reset phone” in the Settings menu under “System & updates,” “Additional settings,” or similar categories.

Recovery Mode Options: When entering Recovery Mode, you may see several options besides the factory reset option, such as “Wipe cache partition” or “Apply update from ADB.” These options are useful for troubleshooting specific issues but do not erase your data. Select the factory reset option explicitly to erase all data.

Physical Buttons Combination: If your Vivo V11i becomes unresponsive and you can’t access the Settings menu, use the physical buttons to enter Recovery Mode and perform a hard reset. The common key combination is holding the Volume Up button and the Power button simultaneously until the Vivo logo appears.

Factory Reset Protection (FRP) Bypass: If you forget your Google account credentials after performing a factory reset and get stuck on the FRP screen, you can use the previously synced Google account information to unlock your device. If you can’t remember these details, contact Vivo customer support for assistance.

Post-Reset Setup: After performing a factory reset, your Vivo V11i will restart and begin the setup process as if it were new. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your device, including selecting language, connecting to Wi-Fi, and signing in with your Google account.
