HTC One, restart, reset and restore data to factory mode

Do you need to know how to format an HTC? In this android guide, we will see how to restart, reset and restore data to factory mode HTC One, a high-end Smartphone, used by a large number of users.

We explain several procedures in the event of a possible problem that does not allow us to recover its normal operation. The called action Hard reset or hard reset, we will do it only when we have no other solution to the problem that the mobile presents.

This can happen as a result of some badly installed or uninstalled application, because let's not remember the unlock pattern and password of the Smartphone. That is, any circumstance that blocks the mobile phone and don't answer.

Likewise, we advise you to fully charge the battery. Remove the SIM card and SD card from the Smartphone.

Procedures to format an HTC One, reset and factory reset

Remember that the Hard reset will erase all mobile data, so before doing so, if possible, it is essential to perform a copy of all our data, documents, contacts, messages, files, tones, etc. You can backup to your computer with the app HTC-Sync.

First option to reset an HTC (soft reset)

If your HTC One is running very slow, if it doesn't respond when you touch the screen, or if it has an app that isn't working properly, try restarting it to see if that fixes the problem.

1. If the screen turns off, please press the POWER button to turn it on again. If your screen is protected
with a screen lock, you must unlock it.

2. Press the Power button for 10 seconds, then release it and the phone will reboot.

Second option (reset to factory mode through the menu)

If the above does not solve the problem, there is no other option but to do a factory data reset.

Attention, all data on the phone is deleted.Remove the SIM card and on the home screen:

  • Go to Settings and then tap Backup and reset.
  • Tap Reset phone.
  • You can also delete media and other data from HTC One by selecting Erase all data.
  • Click on accept.

Third option ( Format an HTC One – button combination)

If you can't turn on HTC One, or access its settings, menus, etc. normally, you can still perform a factory reset by using the buttons.

1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then press and hold the POWER button.
2. Wait until the three Android images appear on the screen, then release the POWER and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
3. Use the VOLUME DOWN button to select FACTORY RESET and then press the POWER button to confirm.

For more information about this process, you can consult the HTC One's own guide in Spanish.

    Reset HTC ONE
    It didn't work, I think buying NORTON security service ruined my phone. I appreciate unsubscribing the service linked to my mail.

    does not restart
    Good afternoon dear HTC, I followed the steps detailed, to be able to factory reset, but it didn't work at all. It loads up to the Android part, and it doesn't go beyond that. What other alternative do you have please? My cell phone is an HTC One M7.

    Thank you

    Hi, I have a little problem, since my phone screen is totally broken and I don't see anything at all. I want to restore to factory mode either through the PC or through the phone, but it doesn't connect with the htc manager and I have no idea if I'm doing it right from the phone, the truth is, I don't see it.
    What do you advise me to delete all the data?
    since I want to send it to be repaired and I would not like it to have all my personal data and images.
