Factory Reset
 

cant get my tab to reset
tried like 11 times
the reason i did is cuz i couldn't get apps the uninstall
let me say that a different way i can get them to uninstall but when i restart their still there

Re: Factory Reset
 

Try this:

1. With the device off, press and hold Volume Up and Power.

2. Release the Power button when you see the Samsung logo, but continue to hold Volume Up until the recovery screen appears.

3. Use the Volume buttons to navigate the menu and select wipe data / factory reset. Press Home to choose the selection.

4. Press Volume Up continue.

Went to sprint to see what they can do
they dont even work on them they just gave me a new one


i think root is breaking hard rest
anyone wanna test on your tab
i tested hard reset on stock tab it worked
so now ill root and test

Re: Factory Reset
 

So was it the root that broke it?

Re: Factory Reset

I tried mine and it works. I'm z4 rooted. Got to recovery and it allowed me to factory reset.

Yup, just finished restoring everything. It had nothing on it though when it restarted. Out of curiosity, did you unroot and try it? I didn't try that.

Re: Factory Reset
 

no i didnt unroot cuz the defeats the purpose of hard reset

Re: Factory Reset
 

I will admit that, while I had the best of intentions, I forgot to try this when I got home last night. I'll try it tonight.

Re: Factory Reset
 

Okay so I just picked one up rooted and I am going to get rid of the stuff that you cant while not rooted. When I do that and decide to do a factory reset will I lose root and will I get everything back that I deleted? Not sure if you can do nand back up's yet as I read that on the how to root thread.. Thanx

I can still do a hard reset when rooted. No problem at all. Rooted with superoneclick v1.7. Tried many times without fail. Even wipe cache partition. :)
