Why would you want to reset your Oppo phone?
Before we dive into the process, it’s essential to understand why you might want to reset your Oppo smartphone without a password. Here are a few common reasons:
- Forgotten password
- Purchased a second-hand Oppo device with an unknown password
- Encountering software issues and the device is unresponsive
Step 1: Power off your Oppo device
The first step is to power off your Oppo smartphone completely. To do this, press and hold the power button until the power menu appears, then tap on “Power off” to shut it down.
Step 2: Enter recovery mode
Once the device is powered off, we need to enter recovery mode. Follow these steps:
- Press and hold the Volume Down button and the Power button simultaneously.
- Keep holding both buttons until you see the Oppo logo appear on the screen.
- Release the buttons momentarily as the logo appears, then quickly press and hold them again.
- After a few seconds, you should enter the recovery mode menu.
Step 3: Navigate to the factory reset option
Use the Volume buttons to navigate through the recovery mode menu. Scroll down and highlight the “Wipe data/factory reset” option using the Volume Down button. Then use the Power button to select it.
Step 4: Confirm the reset
Once you’ve selected the factory reset option, you will be prompted to confirm the action. Double-check that you have backed up all important data, as this process will erase everything on your Oppo device permanently. If you’re ready to proceed, select “Yes” or “OK”.
Step 5: Wait for the reset to complete
Now, all you need to do is sit back and wait for the factory reset process to finish. It may take a few minutes, so be patient.
Step 6: Reboot your Oppo device
After the reset is complete, you’ll be taken back to the recovery mode menu. Use the Power button to select the “Reboot system now” option. Your Oppo device will restart, and you’ll be greeted with the initial setup screen.
