Welcome, in front of me is an Elephone P8000 and I will show you how to do a hard reset
0:12
to get rid of the screen lock. So as you can see right now the device is locked and although I know the pattern I can't
0:20
really unlock it because the screen is a little bit busted. So now it worked but let's see if I can do it again
0:33
But it still works anyway. So I just assume that we don't know
0:39
As you can see it doesn't work all the time. So assuming that we don't know the pattern we can remove it by doing a hard reset and
0:49
We will start it by powering on the device. Hold the power button and then tap power off and OK
1:05
Wait for the phone to turn off and once it's off we will hold the volume up and power button together
1:11
So let's do that. As you can see now we are in boot mode
1:21
So from here choose the first option which is recovery mode and to select it we will
1:26
use only volume up and basically navigate. As you can see the arrow moving
1:31
So once it's selected tap volume down to confirm it. Then you will get the Android logo with no connection
1:40
Well it's in Polish so not really. But if it's in English it's going to say no connection or no command something like that
1:49
So to proceed we will hold power button and tap volume up once
1:54
Like so. And you can let go. And from here we can use volume up and down to navigate
2:01
So as you can see both of them work. And what we want to do is select WAV data slash factory reset and tap power button to
2:10
confirm it. And then once more volume down to go down to select yes
2:16
So let's do that. And then tap again power button to confirm it
2:24
As you can see on the bottom wiping data. And then you get a message data wipe complete
2:32
And just tap power button one more time as long as it's selected on reboot system now
2:39
And the device will actually continue removing the data in the background now and finishing
2:43
the process so it will actually take a little bit longer than it normally takes the phone
2:47
to power back on. So once it's going I'm just going to be back once it's finished
3:09
And as you can see now the process is finished and you're back in the home screen and the
3:20
lock screen is now gone as you can see. So if you found this video helpful don't forget to hit like subscribe and thank you for watching
