An Android user may face many issues like lag and freeze while using the device. Some times a software update or a bad app alter the settings which result in a bad user experience. A quick workaround for these kinds of issue is Factory or hard reset the device. Not only that but there are several other reasons to factory reset a device. Before selling a smartphone it is always recommended to perform a Factory reset.
What Factory Reset is?
Factory resetting a device will erase all user data stored including settings and return the device to factory settings. Factory reset is also known as Master Reset or Hard reset. As I mentioned it above the process will delete all the user data, so a backup is always recommended.
