Hello,
this is my dad's phone and it started rebooting by itself. When phone boots you can use it for 30 seconds and then it reboots again. I tried to factory reset from settings but nothing happens when I press ok on the last menu. So i tried opening menu when phone is booting (power button + volume down) and selecting factory reset with power button. Phone then showes red triangle with exclamation mark. After 2 minutes phone reboots itself without doing factory reset.

"Performing a factory data reset deletes all data, including downloaded applications, and resets the device back to its initial state—the state before you turned on the device for the first time.
Important Make sure to back up important data you have on the device before you perform a factory data reset."

Good Day,
I have an Archos70IT that i had not used in a while, It was working OK, I went ahead and reset everything to factory and it booted OK, I installed applings and Gapps and still worked OK then suddenly it froze, I used the power button to reset and after that I get a boot loop with the Archos Entertainment your way splashscreen and then after a couple of seconds blank screen and almost immediately the same splashscreen.
This is what I have tried/found out so far:
- Tried to boot the recovery console by resetting (Hold Power for 10 sec), waited a minute, tried to boot with Power and Volume Down (-) pressed and I only get a static splashscreen and it stays like that until I reset again.
- Let the battery die by leaving the splashscreen bootloop all night, connected to power and after a couple of days tried again with the same result.
- Have tried resetting and connecting to USB nothing detected by the computer, at this step have tried resetting, holding power + volume up and down and no luck, same result.
So I have no idea on what else to do, I think I screwed up by not updating the firmware before installing apps after the whole factory reset.
Hello, I have a problem with my phone (Z5S Nubia Mini). When I want to turn on the phone, i have to push it for like 5s, then the phone starts (sometimes it vibrates for few times). But my problem is, that I CAN NOT get into recovery or bootloader, also i cant do factory reset via settings. When I select "recovery" (or restart or bootloader) in restart menu, the phone just turn off. When I hold VOL UP+POWER, the phone vibrates for few times, then the white screen with orange chinese text shows up, I still hold VOL UP+POWER, then it turns off again. When I tried to do factory reset via settings nothing happened, nothing was restored/uninstalled. Can you help me with this, please?
I tried to hold POWER+VOL UP+HOME and after the phone vibrates hold VOL UP+HOME only, but the phone stuck on white screen with chinese text (something like "wo")
From couple of days ago I started to get popups saying "android ____ .com" or something and every time I clicked OK the message would pop up again not letting me press anything but the OK button continuesly.. so I powered off the phone
I powered back up again and my phone wouldn't boot anymore. The screen said "Encryption Unsuccessful" and then there was a "Factory Reset" button right below - nothing happens when I clicked it
So I went on and performed a factory reset by entering recovery mode (power button + volume up + volume down) and after it didn't work I went back to recovery mode and tried "clear cache" which didn't work so I then went to factory mode (power button + volume up) and cleared data by selecting MMC or something (it was in chinese)
What happens next is, the phone enters a boot loop. It boots, shows the Lenovo logo, then turns off, then boots again, Lenovo logo, turns off, and so on. I wasn't even able to turn off the phone so I clicked that red reset button at the back
I didn't try removing the battery or SD card
How do I go from here?
Hello,
My wife just bought a Galaxy S6 from a friend of her and we are trying to factory reset it.
If we do it from the menu the phone just turns off and when we turn it on again all the data is still there.
If we try using the keys before turning it on (volume up + power + home) after it turns on and we are holding the keys the capacitive keys leds start flashing like crazy and the phone doesn't turn on again after a while.
Any one knows what we can do to factory reset this phone?
sorry, just noticed there is a different forum for the t-mobile version
So you did try recovery mode, but it did not work? That's strange! When phone is turned off, press Volume up + Power + Home button and hold them until you see recovery screen (Android bot on cyan background). Then recovery menu will pop up (sometimes it can take a while for it to be shown). From there do the factory reset and wipe cache. But it seems you already tried it...
