How to reset or factory restore Samsung i7110 device?
The Samsung i7110 is an older device, released in 2011, and running on Android 2.3.6 operating system. While it's not possible to reset or factory restore the device to its original state, it's still possible to perform a soft reset or perform a root checker to gain access to more advanced features. Let's take a look at the most common and recommended ways to reset or factory restore a Samsung i7110 device:
**Soft Reset:**
If you want to perform a soft reset on your Samsung i7110, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds until the Samsung logo appears on the screen.
2. While holding down the power button, press and hold the volume-up button at the same time.
3. Continue holding both buttons until you see the Samsung logo appear again.
4. Release the buttons and select "wipe data/factory reset" using the volume button.
5. Press the volume down button again to confirm the operation.
6. Wait for the device to perform the reset process. Resetting your device in this way will reset all your settings, apps, and data, but it will not erase the root checker.
**Root Checker:**
If you want to gain access to more advanced features on your Samsung i7110, resetting the device to its original state is not possible. However, you can download the root checker app from the Google Play Store or issue commands through the Android terminal emulator. Here are the steps to follow:
1. Download and install the root checker app from the Google Play Store.
2. Open the app and ensure that you have root access.
3. Go to the settings menu and select "about phone."
4. Tap on the version number and then select "build number" several times.
5. Once you see the "You are now eligible to update Samsung software to the latest version" message, you can proceed to the next step.
6. Go back to the settings menu, select "system update," and follow the on-screen instructions to update your software.
7. After updating the software, download and install the root checker app again.
8. Open the app and check if root access is still present.
**Others:**
There are other methods to reset or factory restore your Samsung i7110, such as using factory data reset through the settings menu or using a PC software like Kies. However, none of these methods will erase root checker, which is not possible on this device.
