1. Be sure that you know a Google Account on the phone.

   • Tap Accounts. If you don't have the option to tap "Accounts," get help from your device manufacturer.
   • You'll find a Google Account username.
2. Be sure that you know the password for the Google Account on the phone. To confirm, sign in to that account on another device or computer. If you don't remember the password, get sign-in help.
3. If you've set a screen lock, be sure that you know your phone's PIN, pattern, or password. If you can't unlock your phone, learn what you can do.

Tip: If you recently reset your Google Account password, wait 24 hours before you perform a factory reset.

Android offers wallets the ability to back up transit cards with funds on them. For devices with Android 15 and up, if your wallet of choice uses this functionality, you’ll get a reminder to back them up before you proceed with factory reset. Please consult your wallet provider for further info about this feature.

A factory reset can take up to an hour.

1. Charge your phone to at least 70%.
2. Connect your phone to Wi-Fi or your mobile network. When the factory reset completes, you must be connected to sign in to your Google Account.

On most phones, you can reset your phone through the Settings app. If you can't open your phone's Settings app, you can try factory resetting your phone using its power and volume buttons. 

We recommend checking your manufacturer's support site for device-specific instructions.
