Method 2: Factory Reset Samsung Galaxy A53 5G SM-A536B/DS – Hard Reset or Recovery Mode

The biggest drawback of the Android operating system is that, over time, Android devices become slower and frequently experience unpredictable slowdowns, glitches, and other problems. At that point, a fix must be found to get our device functioning again normally. Slowdowns might also be brought on by viruses; if virus scans and repairs are ineffective, the only option left is ‘Recovery Mode.’

Recovery Mode in Android enables devices to reboot as a fresh start without any virus or other issues that were previously causing the troubles. In recovery mode, we can access the Android device before the Android operating system itself is fully loaded. Recovery mode enables you to make the typically impossible changes while the device is running. We can get root access and restore the backup of the OS, which resets the device and deletes all user data.

Method 3: Factory Reset Samsung Galaxy A53 5G SM-A536B/DS from Recovery Mode

Step 1: Press and hold the power button for a few seconds, then a menu will appear with options like Power Off and Restart. Select Power Off.
