Perform a Hard Restart (or Hard Reboot)It's like holding the power button down on your computer. To give this a go, press and hold the power button for at least 20 seconds. If Android isn't responding, this will (usually) force your device to reboot manually.
Some operating systems "reboot" by an ACPI command, which "restarts" the computer. Restart is vague, and can mean the same as reboot, or a reload of the current operating system (without the boot loader), or even just restarting the user mode part of the operating system, leaving the kernel mode memory intact.
The factory reset function of Android smartphones is supposed to delete all apps, files, and settings from the device and restore it to an out-of-the-box state. The process, however, is flawed and leaves a door to recover data. This reset of the system overrides all old data.
