Welcome, the phone is a Samsung Galaxy A71 and today I'll show you how to
0:09
hard reset the device through the recovery mode and also remove a screen
0:14
lock on top of that if you don't know the pattern to it. So let me lock the
0:19
device first so you can see that there is a there's a pattern and also a
0:24
fingerprint as you can see. Now I'm gonna progress to it as though I don't know the pattern to it and number one we want to shut off the device. Now normally you
0:32
would just press the button right here to power it off but as you will just see now it blocks you from doing it as long as you don't know the pattern to it. So
0:41
what we will need to do is hold power key volume down, hold it till the phone
0:46
shuts off so you want to have the screen on as it is right now, have it on, hold
0:51
the keys, hold it till the screen shuts off and once it shuts off immediately
0:55
switch to holding power key and volume up. So begin power key volume down and
1:00
then switch from volume down to volume up while continuously holding power key
1:04
So let's get this going so you can see power key volume down, shuts off, switching
1:19
to power key volume up and there we go we're now in recovery mode by and also
1:29
bypass the power off protection. So from here you'll use volume keys to navigate
1:37
so you want to select wipe data factory reset using volume keys to navigate and
1:42
there it is and once it's selected press power key to confirm it then once more
1:47
select factory data reset right here and power key to confirm it you get a little
1:53
dialogue message on the bottom last entry should be data wipe complete and
1:57
reboot system now should be selected by default so all you need to do now is press the power key so let's do that and now the device will reboot and also the
2:07
process will be continuing in the background so the device will be turning for a little bit longer than it normally does just just be patient once it's
2:13
finished we then should be greeted with the Android setup screen so I'll be back
2:17
once that is actually visible and as you can see now the process is finished and you can go to the setup
2:46
process of the device however you like once you're finished you will see that
2:49
there is no more screen lock so if you found this video helpful don't forget to
