How to reset or factory restore Wiko View device?
Sure, I'd be happy to help you with that! Here are the most common and recommended ways to reset or factory restore a Wiko View device:
**Using Hard Reset**
Hard Reset, also known as a carry reset, is a firmware recovery procedure that erases the device's software to bring it back to its original state. To perform a hard reset on a Wiko View device, follow these steps:
1. Turn off your device and press and hold the power button for at least 60 seconds. This will force your device to boot into recovery mode.
2. In recovery mode, you will see several options. Highlight "Delete all user data/factory data" and press the power button to select it.
3. Once you select "Delete all user data/factory data," you will see a confirmation screen asking you to confirm the action. Press the power button to select "Yes."
4. After a few seconds, your device will begin to reset to its original state and reboot.
**Using Recovery Mode**
Recovery mode is a diagnostic mode that allows you to perform firmware recovery, backup and restore operations on your device. To use recovery mode on a Wiko View device, follow these steps:
1. Turn off your device and press and hold the power button for at least 60 seconds. This will force your device to boot into recovery mode.
2. In recovery mode, you will see several options. Highlight "Delete all user data/factory data" and press the power button to select it.
3. Once you select "Delete all user data/factory data," you will see a confirmation screen asking you to confirm the action. Press the power button to select "Yes."
4. After a few seconds, your device will begin to reset to its original state and reboot.
**Using Software Update**
If you have received an OTA (over-the-air) update package for your Wiko View device's firmware, you can use it to reset your device to its original state. Here's how to do it:
1. Go to Settings > Available update.
2. Download the OTA package and wait for the installation to complete. This may take several minutes.
3. After the installation is complete, a screen will appear asking you to finish the setup.
4. During the setup process, you will be prompted to reset your device. Choose "Yes" to proceed.
5. After a few seconds, your device will begin to reset to its original state and reboot.
Overall, the recommended method of resetting or factory restoring a Wiko View device is to use firmware recovery, either through hard reset or recovery mode. This will ensure that your device is completely wiped clean and starts fresh. If you're receiving an OTA update, using that update as a method of resetting your device can also be effective.
