All personal data, accounts, and apps will be permanently removed.
Open the Menu or Settings on the phone
Look for 'Restore Factory Settings', 'Master Reset', or 'Reset Phone' (naming varies by manufacturer)
Enter the security code if asked — the factory default is commonly 0000 or 1234 if you never changed it
Confirm to erase all data and restore original settings
The phone restarts automatically once finished
