How to reset or factory restore Samsung W999 device?

Resetting or factory restoring a Samsung W999 device is a useful method when you need to start from scratch, i.e., when you don't want to use your existing files, settings, and apps. It's important to ensure that you have backup your data before proceeding with the resetting process. Below are the most common and recommended ways to reset or factory restore a Samsung W999 device: 1. Soft Reset A soft reset is a simple process that involves rebooting the device and clearing out the RAM. To perform a soft reset on your Samsung W999 device, follow these steps: * Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds until the device turns off. * Press and hold the volume up button while pressing the power button again to restart the device in Recovery Mode. * Release both buttons when the Samsung logo appears on the screen. * Select "Wipe data/factory data reset" using the volume keys. * Use the power button to select "Yes - delete all user data." * Wait for the phone to restart and the setup screen will appear. Note: This process will only erase the data stored in the RAM and not the device's internal memory. 2. Hard Reset A hard reset involves resetting the device to its factory settings by removing the device's battery and then reinserting the battery while performing a software reset. To perform a hard reset on your Samsung W999 device, follow these steps: * Remove the device's battery. * Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds until the device turns off. * Press and hold the volume up button while pressing the power button again to restart the device in Recovery Mode. * Release both buttons when the Samsung logo appears on the screen. * Select "Wipe data/factory data reset" using the volume keys. * Use the power button to select "Yes - delete all user data." * Find the "Backup and restore" option and select "Backup now." * Insert the battery back into the device. * Wait for the phone to restart and the setup screen will appear. Note: A hard reset will completely erase all data on your device, including any important information, so it's important to have a backup of your data before performing a hard reset. 3. Using Samsung Kies Samsung Kies is a software that allows you to connect your Samsung device to your computer and perform several functions, including resetting your device. To reset your Samsung W999 device using Samsung Kies, follow these steps: * Connect your Samsung W999 device to your computer using a USB cable. * Install and run Samsung Kies on your computer. * Back up all data on your device to your computer. * Click on the "Firmware" tab in Samsung Kies. * Click on the "Download firmware" button and select the firmware for your device. * After the firmware is downloaded, click on the "Install firmware" button. * Wait for the installation process to complete. * Once the installation is completed, disconnect your device from the computer and remove the battery. * Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds until the device turns off. * Press and hold the volume up button while pressing the power button again to restart the device in Recovery Mode. * Release both buttons when the Samsung logo appears on the screen. * Select "Wipe data/factory data reset" using the volume keys. * Use the power button to select "Yes - delete all user data." * Wait for the phone to restart and the setup screen will appear.
