[Q] How to restore a broken nexus s to factory settings - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi, i tried to root my new non-us nexus s (super lcd) (2.3.4) and its stuck at the google boot logo.
how can i completly reset it in every way so it will function again? And it would be great if someone could explain it to me in an understandable language. i've not studied rocket science. most, if not all of the guides on the web showing how to root an android device arent made for normal users and not everyone is a mad hacker for 20 years.
thanks in advance

boot to fastboot:
- remove battery
- insert battery
- hold Volume down + power button
- you will now see fast boot screen
- use volume button to navigate down to RECOVERY, select it with power button
- you will see a triangle with exclaimation mark screen with android robot
- press Volume up + power button (might take a few tries)
- you will see another screen, this is your RECOVERY mode
- go to factory reset/wipe all data
- use volume button to navigate, power button to select
- Wipe and back normal!

I wonder if someone could help me with just one more step here. I need to reset my phone, but the screen is absolutely dead due to being dropped too many times. Could someone with a working screen walk me through these steps as if doing it blind –*how many clicks, how long to wait, etc.?

HTC ONE S keep rebooting all the time! Help :<

My phone keeps rebooting all the time. It goes up to the logo screens and the shut downs and reboots again ad infinitum :// Is there any fix for this? Phone is not rooted or anything. This blows so much im out of the country for 2 weeks so i cant get it fixed :///
Hold Power button, all screen buttons will flash for about ten secs. Release, phone should turn off phone.
Hold power and volume down. That should take you into your bootloader menu.
Select "reset". This will wipe your SDcard.
should work on your stock device but try at your own risk. Just remember, google is your friend.

Yeah, just Power-On button + Vol - and then Factory Set. Use Vol+/Vol- to navigate in the menu and power button to select. :good:

Tablet Hard Reset
I don't have experience with
this specific tablet, but many
Android devices use a similar
procedure.
Start with the tablet fully
powered off (not just in
standby). To force the tablet to
a fully off state, hold the power
button pressed for until it
powers down. This can take 10
to 20 seconds.
Hold the volume up button
pressed (some devices may use
the volume down button), and
then press and hold the power
button, until a small menu
appears. Release the power
button and then the volume
button.
Use the volume up/down
buttons to select the required
menu entry, and then tap the
power button to action the
selection.
I hope this works for you

[Completed] [Q] 7in Trio Stealth G2

I have a 7in. Trio Stealth G2. Its is stuck in a boot loop. Im currently waiting on the battery to die so I can try to hard reset that way, and to get to the Android recovery menu. The reset button on the back is completely useless at this point. Other than bouncing it off the wall im at the end of my rope. Tech support reps at Machspeed are anything but tech support. (they asked to walk me through the hard reset 3x)
Hi there,
From this thread I will quote the steps for reset: Trio Stealth G2 Hype frozen at boot logo
Hard Reset G2 – In the case of password lockouts or freezing, doing a hard reset on your android device could help you get back to the factory defaults. First you need to make sure your tablet is powered off. Hold down on the Volume + button and hold down the Power button at the same time. As soon as the tablet's screen turns on let go of the Power button but keep the Volume + button held down until you see a large Android in the center of the screen. At this point you will see a screen with boot options. Use the Volume – button to go down to Wipe Data Factory Reset and tap the Power button to select this option. On the next screen use the Volume – button again to go down to Yes and use the Power button to select. At this point it will be going through the wiping and resetting process. When it's done you will see the first screen you came to when you first started the setup. Just tap the Power button to select Reboot System Now.
Make sure tablet is powered off.
Hold down Volume + button and Power button at same time.
When screen comes on let go of Power button.
When the large Android shows on screen let go of Volume + button.
Use Volume – button to scroll to Wipe Data/ Factory Reset
Tap Power button to select.
Use Volume – button to scroll to Yes.
Tap Power button to select.
Tap Power button to select Reboot System Now.

[INFO] LG K3 Modes - Download / Recovery Etc

Here are the modes for the LG K3 VS450
Factory Data Reset - Power off phone. Hold down volume up button. While holding the button down press the power button and hold it then while holding it when the LG logo pops up let go for a quarter of a second then hold down again on the power button. You will enter Factory Data Reset Mode. This is your typical LG Reset Mode (one on a white background) and has 2 options.. yes or no.
Advanced Recovery - Power off phone. Remove battery from phone. Replace battery in phone. Hold volume down + power button at the same time. You should see a message saying "Recovery Mode loading... " when you do let go of the buttons. You will enter the Advanced Recovery mode. This is your typical Android Recovery with many options.
Download Mode - Power off phone. Hold volume up button. While holding volume up button plug your data cable into your computer. You will enter Download mode. This is your typical LG download mode.
Safe Mode - Power off phone. Hold down volume down button. While holding the button down press the power button and hold it until you boot up. You will enter Safe Mode. This is your typical LG Safe Mode. It shows safe mode at the bottom left of your screen and can be exited easily by selecting exit from the notifications menu. On some LG's it will require a reboot others it wont.
IMEI Display - Plug phone into computer via data cable. Turn phone off. Remove battery from phone and replace it. Hold down volume up + volume down + power button. After the LG logo you will see a white image pop up make sure to quickly let go of the buttons. You are now staring at IMEI Display. I do not know if this is normal for all LG's or not but I would imagine so. I do not know what it is for either other than perhaps something industry related? Test modes? Etc. I will research and try to find out. I have an industry level barcode reader and software so when I get time I will read the barcodes and see what data I can get. I will also try to replicate on other LG's here.

On ulefone armor 9 boot modes

First of all power down the device, then you have two posibilities:
push volume up + power until the device boots up, this will boot you into a chinese recovery, where volume down serves to move between items, volume up to go back and the power button to select. The last entry serves to reboot and the eMMC one to factory reset. you can see this menu here.
push power for 3 seconds and wait for the screen to power up, then push power until the screen goes off, then push volume up ONLY until the device boots up again, here you will receive a menu where you can choose between normal boot, recovery (which shows up the typical android recovery) or fastboot, (which is not userspace)
