Press and hold the Volume Up button and the Power button at the same time for about 10 seconds.

Release all the buttons you hold

After you perform a hard reset on your phone, you need to release all the buttons you hold down during the reset process. While performing a hard reset, you will also lose all the data you have stored on the phone, so make sure that you back everything up beforehand. Besides, you should consider removing the battery and memory card before doing a hard reset. Make sure you have all the permissions on the phone correct too, as well as all the things set to ‘allow’ while in recovery mode. If you are still having issues after performing a hard reset, you can try the internal fix.

Hold down the Power button for at least 10 seconds

As mentioned above, performing a hard reset without holding down the Power button for at least 10 seconds will cause your phone to go into restore mode. During this time, all your data will be reset and you will lose all the features and functionality that you have installed on your phone. So, to perform a hard reset, you need to hold down the Power button for at least 10 seconds. If your phone is not in restore mode and you want to continue with the internal fix, then you can hold down the Power button for even longer. However, if you want to perform a hard reset and stop short at holding down the Power button for 10 seconds, you will cause problems for your device.

While your phone is still switched on, press the Volume Down button and the Power button at the same time until you see ‘ recovery mode ‘ on the display

Performing a hard reset without first switching on your device will cause permanent damage to your phone. While performing a hard reset, you should hold down the Power button for at least 10 seconds, and then, while your phone is still switched on, press the Volume Down button and the Power button at the same time until you see ‘ recovery mode ’ on the display. This will take you back to the recovery mode screen, where you can start the process all over again.

While recovering mode is displayed, keep holding the Power button until your device restarts

After a hard reset, you need to wait at least 24 hours before you can perform another one. This is to prevent any accidental changes to your phone, and to allow your phone to switch itself off properly. After a hard reset, your phone will need to be put in ‘restore mode’ for at least 24 hours before you are able to try another hard reset.

After phone restarts, use either the Volume Up or Down button to scroll down to ‘ end of firmware update ‘ option.

After a hard reset, you will need to use either Volume Up or Down button to scroll down to the ‘end of firmware update’ option. That is what the developer used to leave space for a future update. So, while you are in ‘firmware update’ option, try to select ‘ yes ’ or ‘ no ’ to update the software as and when needed.

Use the volume key to select ‘ yes ‘ or ‘ no ‘ and then press the Power button to confirm

After a hard reset, your phone will remain switched on, but with the Power button set to ‘ Sleep/Wake ’. To confirm that you have selected the ‘yes’ or ‘no’ option correctly, try to hold down the Power button for a few seconds. If you get an error or the phone does not turn on, then your phone does not want to respond and you need to do a hard reset again. It is advised that you choose ‘yes’ or ‘no’ according to your preference when doing a hard reset, as this is how the developer expects you to use the phone.
