How to Hard Reset Your Samsung Galaxy S

Sometimes after using Samsung Galaxy S from a while, having fun with the customization, it’s time to “turn back” time and restore your Samsung Galaxy S back to Factory Settings. Resetting your phone is good when you are beginning to encounter a lot of unexpected problems with your phone. For Samsung Galaxy S, there are two ways to do this.

Please Note: All data will be deleted from the Samsung Galaxy S as a result of this procedure. This process does NOT delete data stored on the microSD card. We recommend backing up all of your personal data before proceeding.

Method 1: Via Android OS

  • Fom the main home screen, tap menu
  • Tap Settings, then Privacy
  • Tap Factory data reset
  • Tap Reset phone
  • Enter your password (if you have set one), then tap Yes to confirm.

Method 2: Hard Reset

  • Turn the power off. If your Samsung Galaxy S is frozen, pull the battery out and reinsert it
  • Hold the Volume Down button
  • Press and release the Power button
  • You are now presented with a menu that allows for Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock
  • Select Clear Storage by pressing the Volume Down button
  • Press and release the Power button
  • Now simply confirm your decision: Volume Up for YES and Volume Down for NO

If you selected YES, all data including third-party applications will be deleted from the Samsung Galaxy S. Once the wipe is complete, the phone will reboot to its factory fresh state.
