Why reset the Samsung Galaxy J8 factory mode

The main reason why we can decide to format a Samsung Galaxy J8 to factory mode is because it doesn't work as well as at first. With the use of the mobile, we usually install applications and download files that reduce the operation of the device.

But it's not always easy to identify the files that are causing trouble for deletion. Therefore, resetting to factory defaults may be the easiest option. In cases like download pending play store, we tried to fix it without actually formatting. But if none of the methods to resolve it work, factory reset may be the last resort.

But it can also be a good idea to reset the Samsung J8 if you are going to sell it or give it away. Or if you have lost the unlock pattern and you can't access your device.

    Hello, I have a J8 and I forgot the PIN, what happens is that I changed the PIN and I don't remember which one to enter, the worst of all is that I don't remember my e-mail password either, I already did a Hard Reset but when it starts again it asks me for the PIN, I don't know what to do.

    Hello, excuse me, I followed the steps of the first option that is on this page and instead of selecting delete everything, select restore that harms the cell phone yes or no because my problem was that when I opened a reading application sometimes the screen was turned to tinkle and when there are updates to the operating system I didn't get a notice and when I realized there was a new update I put it manually but after updating the applications that I had on my memory card it doesn't read them for me they disappear for that reason I wanted to put it in the factory but when I put it in the factory instead of deleting everything I put restore and I don't know if that would damage my cell phone or harm me something

      Hello, first you have to go to phone settings and then accounts. You need to delete the Google account from there. Then you can reset.
