🔹 What is Hard Reset?

A hard reset (also called factory reset or master reset) erases all user data, apps, settings, and restores the device back to its original factory state. This process helps fix:

• Forgotten password / PIN / pattern lock

• Lagging or freezing issues

• Software glitches & errors

• Virus or malware infections

• Preparing phone for resale

⚠️ Warning: Hard reset will delete all personal data (photos, videos, contacts, apps). Backup your data before proceeding.
