Step by Step Guide for Tecno Pova Hard Reset

Step 1. Power Off the Phone

First things first, power off your Tecno Pova Neo completely. Of course, that is because hard reset is activated from a device powered off. Press and hold the power button. From the menu displayed, select “Power off.”

Step 2. Press Volume Up and Power Buttons

After switching off your phone, you now have to access Recovery mode. At the same time, press the Volume Up and Power button together and hold them until you see the Tecno logo on the screen. It may take a few seconds so bear with it.

Step 3: Boot into Recovery Mode

When the logo of Tecno appears, stop holding both buttons. You should now be in recovery mode. Repeat the preceding step as long as it still boots normally. You will see a menu from the recovery mode. You will not have the ability to use the touchscreen here but rather navigate using the volume keys.

Step 4. Wipe Data/Factory Reset

Use the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons to move up and down through the options in the recovery menu. Highlight the option that says, “Wipe data/factory reset.” Then, with this highlighted, hit the Power button to select it. This will let your phone know that you really do intend to proceed with the wiping of all data and going back to the factory settings.

Step 5. Confirm Wipe

After “Wipe data/factory reset” is highlighted, it will ask for confirmation. Move to “Yes” with the volume buttons and press the power button to confirm it. Now, the phone starts destroying all your data—this includes all your private files, apps, and settings—and upon completion, it auto-reboots the phone to a brand-new out-of-the-box state.
