      I think you'll have to flash a ROM with Odin: https://www.todoandroid.es/que-es-samsung-odin-que-podemos-hacer/

    The cell phone problem
    What happens to my cell phone is that not even the hard reset works when the cell phone is encrypted. No matter how hard I try to reset it, it won't let me. If you can help me I appreciate it.

    Another language…
    Hello!!! I followed the steps in the manual, which are the same as those given by you, after resetting to factory mode, everything appears in a language that I do not know, it seemed Russian to me, I wrote it in the google translator and it does not translate it, I deduce that it will be another language. Could you help me? From already thank you very much.

    Good afternoon, you are already doing a factory reset of my computer (samsung gt-i8160). The issue is that when I want to create the google account, it tells me that there is an error on the server. I go to the server and it is empty. It asks for some information that I don't have them, how do I configure the server to be able to configure the account in google?
    I hope a quick response I hope you can help me
    greetings and thank you very much Mayra
