Welcome. In front of me is a OnePlus 7 Pro and I'll show you how to hard reset the device
0:12
using a secret code. We'll start off by actually opening up the dialer app. So I'll go here
0:19
and if you have some kind of prompt, if you haven't used the app before, you'll have to
0:24
just tap on accept and tap on the green little button to bring up the dialer and we'll type
0:30
this in. Star, hash, star, hash. 9, 4, 7, 3, 2, 2, 2, 4, 3. Then hash, star, hash and once
0:48
I press star it will basically turn off the device. So you start off with the star and
0:55
then it's kind of reverse just so you see it. So I'm going to press now the star and
1:02
it will turn off. As you can see. Let's wait for the device a little moment and we'll proceed
1:13
further on once it turns off the recovery. Yes, from here choose a language. So I'm going to
1:24
choose English and wipe data and cache. Tap on this and then you can tap on erase everything
1:31
right here. Stop on it and you get a little message that this can't be undone. Continue
1:38
Yes and now the process begins. Now once you tap reboot it will continue in the background so it
1:48
will actually take a little bit longer to turn on the device so just be patient. I'll be back
1:53
once it has finished. And as you can see now the process is almost finished. That's a little bit longer and we
2:23
will see the Android setup screen as it is visible now and you can now set up the device
2:30
as you would normally. Now mind you if you do the reset you will need to put in the Google
2:35
account as a verification assuming there was one previously which will be the one that
2:41
for instance you used to log into Google Play Store and if you didn't actually do anything
2:46
with it like didn't log in it will just proceed further on and I can actually basically demonstrate
2:52
what I mean like this device wasn't logged in so I can skip it and skip the Wi-Fi connection
3:00
as well. If there was one you will actually have to log in you won't have the button to
3:05
skip so you might want to mind that. Other than that if you found this video helpful
