Factory Data Reset (Powered On) - LG G2

A factory data reset may help with a blank or frozen screen, apps crashing or freezing, keypad/touchscreen problems, can't hear, device making noises, can't make or receive calls, and device won't sync.

Perform a factory data reset only if absolutely necessary as it removes all settings and data including:

• Contacts
• Email accounts
• System and app data
• App settings
• Downloaded apps
• Media (It is recommended to backup this data)
  Alternatively, music, pictures and videos can be backed up to a computer.

Notes:

• Personal data (e.g., Wi-Fi passwords, browser bookmarks, etc.) can be backed up to Google's servers.
• An alternate reset method is available if the device is unresponsive or won't power on.
• If troubleshooting third-party apps, disable the Automatic Restore option.
