Welcome. In front of me is a Xiaomi 12T and today I'll show you how you can hard reset this device
0:06
through settings. So to get started you want to open up your settings
0:16
Once you're in settings select about phone and then choose factory reset. And here it will provide
0:23
you with info that this process removes accounts, contacts, photos, videos, apps, backups, SD card
0:28
data, no it doesn't, and other items on this device. Now to be honest you only need to worry
0:34
about the apps, photos and videos and contacts. Those are probably the only things that you should
0:41
be worrying about. So to shorten this and clarify this anything that you keep on the phone itself
0:48
not on the back on the cloud or on your google account if you want to keep it do make a copy of
0:53
it if you don't disregard this. From here select erase all data. It gives you the option to back
0:58
it up right now if you want to. So keep in mind this is backing up the device to Xiaomi cloud
1:03
which means you will be only able to restore this backup if you're restoring it to a Xiaomi phone
1:09
and no other device or no other brand. But I don't want to back it up I'm going to progress here by
1:16
selecting factory reset. Now it does tell me all backups stored on this device will be deleted
1:21
permanently, backups, imported items and whatever. So basically it removes everything. Let's select
1:26
factory reset and here we have Xiaomi letting us know for the third time and now blocking by us by
1:31
10 seconds that factory resets deletes all data. Like I hope I hope it does but I hoped it wouldn't
1:38
waste my 10 seconds. Oh wait no never mind it's for the fourth time now that we get to know and
1:44
have another 10 seconds of our life wasted that we never get back. Thanks Xiaomi F off with this
1:50
Your customers I assume aren't the absolute biggest effing donkeys so we don't need our time
1:55
to be wasted right here just do what we selected. But once you press on that okay button after the
2:01
20 seconds of your life that has been wasted the device will begin resetting. Now this process
2:06
will take about three minutes maybe to finish up and once it's completed we'll be then presented
2:12
with Android setup screen. So I'll be back once that is visible
2:31
And as you can see the process is now finished and you can set up your device
2:34
however you want. So if you found this very helpful don't forget to hit like, subscribe, and thanks for watching
