I did a factory reset on my phone (stock), then used the restore option to bring it back to its previous state.
After the reset, the battery started performing terribly: fast to drain and slow to charge. What could have happened?
The phone states it is fully updated, etc, all of my settings are the same. Should I reset it again but back to stock without restoring it?
Thanks

Hi,
I installed VillainRom 5.3. All is great and ok but it's not ok when I try to use RSS from HTC News app (not widget...and anybody has that issue). I get FC everytime. Then I can't reset also autokiller app.
I was thinking to try a soft or hard reset. Do you think is a good idea? Can I do it also with a custom rom? How can I do it?
Thank you.
Hard reset; taking out the battery,
Soft reset; close app/whatever and open it again.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm sure this is what it is, "Hard" reset being, hardware. "Soft" reset being software...

Yes, correct.
I made a hard reset and now I don't have anymore some apps of Villainrom I had before (3D Gallery, News and Weather, ecc..)
That's extreamy odd.. You just took out the Battery and restarted the phone?
Did you;
Flash the rom,
restart,
install apps,
froze,
hard reset
- missing apps?
Try and reflash the ROM with this method, or backup a previous Nandroid backup,
Go into recovery, restart + hold down Home
Wipe everything
Flash Latest Radio
Restart
Flash ROM
Restart + let ROM load, this will take a while (Up to 20 mins)
Have a look at your new rom, but don't bother doing anythign (Setting ect..)
Restart
Now, when the ROM loads it will be quicker and you can use it normaly
After a few restarts it tends to get slighty quicker.
Have fun
I solved the problem installing the new version of the ROM.
How do I soft reset?
Recently had the problem of the speaker being activated automatically when I make or receive calls
That is majorly annoying. I don't know why that happens, haven't been able to find a consistent pattern
Need to try a soft reset without data wipe first before considering other drastic measures
I'm on VR2.4.2, with niph 2.0.5
A soft reset is just a reboot. That won't wipe anything. Just make a titanium backup and do a factory reset.

Reboot as in off and then on the phone?
I had tried rebooting but the problem still persists... damn it
Any way to reset the settings back to factory default without wiping?
Hi every one,
I have an HTC Amaze 4G phone which I had rooted properly and flashed speed rom successfully. I had an issue with the phone's contacts so every now and then the contacts memory goes blank and shows "Zero Contacts". After a few minutes it comes back to the original state and shows all contacts again. I tried to restart the phone when the issue occurred but it did not help. I thought I might have installed a software which is causing this issue so I did a factory reset.
After the factory reset, to my surprise, my phone was unrooted. I can't understand why that happened? Can anyone please tell me the solution to both problems?
re-root

During Factory Reset, root gets overwritten being in one of the system folders. As for contacts, there may have been corrupt contacts. If your contacts are backed up to google, then now that you've run factory reset, they should be fine. You can test the contacts after each install you do to find out if there is an offending app.
I did the latest update on my s10+ , and i had a bunch of issues (finger print scanner, wifi, slower, etc..)
I did i full factory reset. First within the settings (reset to factory) and that didn't work, so i went into recovery (vol up, bixby and power in the same time), did a cache clean and 2 factory reset and it fixed everything. works even better than before. So i know it's a pain, but i think this last update might mess something for some.. so just do a complete factory reset but from recovery. Just before that do it inside the settings if you have a samsung account enabled (to disable it)
my 2cents.
Hi guys,
I need to send my phone to Huawei for a battery replacement as my battery is really not lasting how it used to. They told me that the battery replacement will result in the phone being reset and wiped to factory settings.
If I back to my phone using HiSuite, what I will lose after the restore? Will app preferences or personal data being preserved and restored, or ust the bare APK itself? In other words, how much extra work will be needed to get the phone back into the same state as before? What data is lost during the backup/ restore process?
Many thanks for any input, this will be my first reset of the phone.
