Samsung Galaxy Note 4 — How to factory reset the Galaxy Note 4

If you have any problems with your Galaxy Note 4, or if you buy a second hand model with somebody else's data on it, you may wish to perform a factory reset to get everything back to normal. Here is how to do it.

Warning: it is impossible to recover your data after doing a factory reset, so online backup is always important. For all of your data, a backup should be done on an external device, hard drive, raid system or media (try Helium). Take out SIM card before full reset. This shouldn't delete the data on your external SD card, but as a precaution, remove as well.
