Android offers a built-in soft reset option, readily available from your phone’s settings menu. Go to Settings, choose Backup & Reset and the select “Factory Data Reset.” You will be prompted to confirm.
How do I reset my Android without losing data?
Open Settings and then choose System, Advanced, Reset options, and Delete all data (factory reset). Android will then show you an overview of the data you’re about to wipe. Tap Erase all data, enter the lock screen PIN code, then tap Erase all data again to start the reset process.
What is difference between hard reset and soft reset?
My understanding of these terms: soft reset happens when you power down the phone and then restarting. Hard reset is a factory reset. It us when you erase all of the information you have put in it and returning it (hopefully ) to the state it was when new.
