How to reset or factory restore Oppo F19 Pro device?
Resetting an Oppo F19 Pro device can be useful in case of technical issues, malware infection, or when you want to sell or give away your device. There are two main methods to reset your Oppo F19 Pro device: Factory Reset (which is also called Hard Reset) and Reset Network Settings.
**Factory Reset**
Factory Reset is a comprehensive method that resets your device to its original state by deleting all user data and settings, including personal data, applications, and preferences. To perform a Factory Reset, please follow these steps:
1. Turn off your device.
2. Press and hold the Power button and Volume up button simultaneously through the power-off screen until the Oppo logo appears.
3. Release the Volume up button while still pressing the Power button and enter Fastboot Bootloader Mode by pressing the Volume down button until the Fastboot logo appears.
4. Connect your device to your computer.
5. Open a rough command prompt or command prompt with administrator privileges on your computer.
6. Type the following command to check if your device is detected:
Fastboot devices
7. To reset your device, navigate to the device folder on your computer, and type the following command:
Fastboot reset
Note that the above steps assume you have Fastboot installed on your computer, which allows interaction with your device through the command prompt. It's important to note that a Factory Reset will erase all data on the device, so make sure to back up your data before performing it.
**Reset Network Settings**
Resetting Network Settings is a less extreme method that only resets network-related settings and preferences. To perform a Reset Network Settings, please follow these steps:
1. Turn off your device.
2. Press and hold the Power button and Volume up button simultaneously through the power-off screen until the Oppo logo appears.
3. Release the Volume up button while still pressing the Power button and enter Menu.
4. From the menu, select "Utils" > "Network Reset."
5. Confirm the reset by selecting "Yes – Reset Now."
6. Your device will reboot and perform network settings reset.
Resetting network settings will not delete any data on the device. However, it will reset network settings and preferences, including Wi-Fi network settings, APN settings, and other network configuration settings. In some cases, this may be a good option if you are experiencing network connectivity issues.
Regardless of which method you choose, it's always recommended to make a full backup of your device before resetting it, especially if you don't have any insurance or warranty coverage on your device.
