Preparing Your Galaxy S23 FE for Reset
Before initiating a factory reset, back up any important data such as contacts, photos, and documents. Once reset, all personal data will be erased and cannot be recovered.
- Charge your device to at least 50% to prevent shutdown during the process.
- Ensure your device is connected to a stable Wi-Fi network if needed for backup.
- Remove any SIM or SD cards to avoid data loss or issues during reset.
Performing the Factory Reset
Follow these steps to reset your Galaxy S23 FE:
- Open the Settings app from the home screen or app drawer.
- Scroll down and tap on General management.
- Select Reset from the options.
- Tap on Factory data reset.
- Review the information and tap Reset.
- Confirm your choice by entering your PIN, password, or pattern if prompted.
- Tap Delete all to begin the reset process.
The device will restart and begin erasing all data. This process may take several minutes. Do not turn off your device during the reset.
After the Reset
Once the reset is complete, your Galaxy S23 FE will restart to the initial setup screen. At this point, the device is ready for sale or transfer.
It is recommended to power off the device and physically remove any remaining accessories or personal items before handing it over to the new owner.
