Good Evening to all,
As per the title says, I need help on how to safely resetting my OP5T to factory setting.
My phone is rooted. I don't mind if I loose the root access or not, I'm still going to root it back anyway.
I think I messed up some setting or whatnot on the phone and am to confuse to trace back what I did wrong.
If you guys so kindly guide me to where should I look to wipe everything to new, I'll be appreciated.
* some of the problem that I'm facing right now including "because an app is obscuring a permissions request, settings can't verify your responses" whenever I try to verify my computer rsa keys, microphone volume too low on earphone or headset as I already tried 3 brand new earphone and headset and the result is still the same.
Thanks.
Settings - System - reset options - erase all data (factory reset)
otherwise
Reboot into recovery(Hold power + vol-) - wipe with default settings
after process is complete perform first boot and then reboot and flash magisk.
EDIT: You could have gotten this info from google in couple of minutes.

Thank you the reply.
I did google first before posting this. It just that some people said that factory reset sometime just wipe the media but not the system. Some said factory reset on root will cause the bootloop. I'm just trying to make sure everything goes smooth.
But thank you anyway. Sorry for taking your time.

Go to twrp
There is a option of factory reset just swipe to do a factory reset and reboot to system
Or
Go to twrp / advance wipe / select cache , dalvik cache, data and swipe
Done

Hello everyone.
So I recently attempted flashing my CN ZF2 to WW and I followed the steps and everything from the Official Guide Here. Once I was done with the command prompts on ADB I unplugged my phone and restarted it. Once I plugged it back in I realized that my computer wouldn't recognize my phone. I restarted my computer and reinstalled input drives but I would still get no response. I even realized that I couldn't even take the phone off USB debugging. Every time I would try unchecking it from the settings menu the phone would automatically reset itself.
I thought I followed all the steps correctly, but obviously my phone is acting a lot different now and I really need someone to lend me some help. Thank you.

I'm trying to avoid factory resetting since it's quite a hassle setting everything up again on the CN model. Although, if there are no other options left I will most likely resort to it.

Just to be clear (based on above), a factory reset will not revert your device back to CN. It's a misconception, only because a typical user is not meant to tinker with system functions. The system is modified to WW, and there is no flip-of-a-switch to go back.
Rather, a factory reset will just wipe your cache and userdata (so you will need to set your apps back up again).

I am aware, but thank you. I never successfully flashed my phone to WW so a hard reset will still revert it to it's original CN settings.
You could try just clearing your cache from recovery to see if that helps. Just be aware it takes ages and will appear to be doing nothing so whatever you do don't try and power off the phone because you think it is stuck.
BTW why do you want to convert to WW? You can root, unlock boot loader, flash TWRP , change kernel, install xposed, install playstore etc on the CN firmware.

Ho Ho Holy **** what have I done?
I wanted to factory reset my device so opened twrp and did the usual. I kept getting the unable to mount error. After reading around I surmised it was an issue with encryption so I performed a data wipe thinking it would rid me of encryption. Disappointingly I was still prompted for a password on reboot but it doesn't recognise the password so I'm stuck at the login screen. I wanted to wipe the device so I could set it up for someone else as a christmas gift.
twrp 2.8.7.? lollipop 5.0.2
Thanks in advance.

Are you asking if I've done either or suggesting I should try them?

hi to all.
in the last days i had some errors on my zf2 (ze551ml): too many apps crash continuously so i've do a factory reset.
after that and the first boot asus keyboard continuously crash and many app (google play service, google maps...) crash too. to connect with wifi i need many attemps (one for each character!)
so i tried to flash firware with adb sideload. all done but after reboot same continuously crash as before appears...
i already cleared cache in recovery many times but not helping.
i wad rooted (motode 3, with ota available) but stock and update to 2.20.40.160
how i can fix it?:crying::crying::crying:
What firmware are you on? Have you tried factory reset? Are you stock/rooted/unlocked??

Yeah tough call, not sure what might be causing it. If you factory reset and get these crashes, then it's not an app problem. Can you run a log of the crashes, or at least describe in detail what's happening when it crashes?
Thanks,
K
well... i don't know how but i fixed it!
i tried many times everything i found in this forum but the solution is (really i thinking, i'm not sure because i have no a list for all attempts) this:
flash last firmware, the same i have previously (v.160 because previous releases stopped during install) with adb sideload
wipe cache
3 times this two passes:
- wipe everything (factory reset)
- reboot in recovery
wipe cache
reboot
thanks anyway for helping me
I have this problem with my Note 7, with TWRP installed and SuperSU but everything else stock. People can ring me and I can hear them but they can't hear me talking back.
Any help appreciated please.
I have tried factory resetting like mentioned below I can't Factory Reset or wipe caches or system or data, I get the Failed to mount error on everything i try
Try:
- Clearing Cache/Dalvik
- Clear data from Phone
- Factory reset
- Confirm whether pre-root calls work and then come back.

Thanks, I'll download the firmware and try again
Okay, probably nobody has done something this dumb except me, but this happened to me once, and the problem was that I had a Pressy button in the headphone jack and hadn't yet installed the Pressy app, so the phone was treating it as headphones. Good luck.

Waiting for the firmware to download I remembered last night I tried to install the sound mods but they didn't work, the normal unable to mount errors

Hi everyone I had an unfortunate problem with my new Samsung Galaxy A72 and it is the following: Since I don't have a PC,
I can't get the phone into recovery mode for the moment to perform a "hard" reset and clean up the phone.
Is there a way to go into recovery without a PC or is it mandatory? Thanks to those who can give me an explanation.
If you are unrooted, the only way to reboot to recovery is with a PC. I think you can perform a hard reset within the settings in General management.

Thanks for the reply however, it is absurd that Samsung forces me to have a PC to do a Hard Reset since now I also do not have one.
They do everything to complicate life...you could do a soft reset from settings but it wasn't what i wanted.
Hello and thanks again for the explanation.

You are correct, Samsung does some questionable things and this is no exception.
By the way, the reset from settings is pretty much the same as if you did it from recovery since all it's going to do is delete the data partition without media (I think, can't remember). I believe when you do it from the settings, it reboots to recovery and wipes from there anyway so it's pretty much the same thing. I really don't know what you mean with a "hard" and "soft" reset though.
I would consider a "hard" reset as formatting not only data but also system and the rest of the partitions, which can only be done with either a custom recovery or doing it with Odin (which requires a PC)

hello thanks for the reply.
If I remember correctly the soft reset from settings ago (reset or reset settings), hard reset instead from stock recovery
wipe cache and data and dalvik ... I think
And having no PC for now I will do the one from settings, too bad, but this samsung puts a lot of difficulties every year,
worse then it will also be the fault of Android 11 I don't know.
