Introduction
Tablets are a popular and convenient device, with their compact size and versatile capabilities making them perfect for both personal and professional use. However, even the best tablet can experience issues and slow down over time. If you're facing a problem with your TCL tablet, resetting it can often be the solution you need.
In this blog, we'll look at three easy methods for resetting your TCL tablet:
- soft reset-restart,
- hard reset,
- factory reset.
Method 1: Soft Reset-Restart
The first method for resetting your TCL tablet is a soft reset restart. This involves simply switching off your device and then turning it back on.
This method is quick, and easy, and it is the first step you should take if your tablet is experiencing any issues. It's a good idea to perform a soft reset-restart if your tablet is freezing, crashing, or if apps are not responding.
One of the benefits of a soft reset-restart is that it protects your data and settings. So, if you're in the middle of an important task and your tablet starts acting up, performing a soft reset-restart is a great first step to take.
Method 2: Hard Reset
If a soft reset restart doesn't solve your issue, the next step is a hard reset. A hard reset is a more comprehensive system reboot, which is often the solution for more serious problems such as software bugs, slow performance, and other issues.
To perform a hard reset on your TCL tablet, you'll need to follow these steps:
- Turn off your tablet
- Press and hold the volume up button and the power button for 10-15 seconds
- Release the buttons when the tablet vibrates
- Wait for the tablet to restart
Note: the steps to perform a hard reset may vary depending on the model of your TCL tablet, so be sure to check the device's user manual for the specific steps for your device.
Method 3: Factory Reset
The third and final method for resetting your TCL tablet is a factory reset. This method will erase all data and settings from your tablet and return it to its original factory settings.
Before performing a factory reset, it's important to back up any important data and files you don't want to lose.
Once you've backed up your data, follow these steps to perform a factory reset on your TCL tablet:
- Go to the settings menu
- Tap on "System"
- Tap on "Reset"
- Tap on "Factory data reset"
- Confirm the reset
It's also important to note that some TCL tablets have Factory Reset Protection (FRP) enabled, which is designed to prevent unauthorized access to your tablet. If your TCL tablet has FRP enabled, you'll need to disable it before performing a factory reset. If you don’t know how to do it, keep reading!
How to disable FRP on TCL tablets
The process to disable Factory Reset Protection (FRP) on TCL tablets may vary depending on the specific model and operating system version. Here are some general steps that you can follow to disable FRP on TCL tablets:
- Factory Reset the device: This is often the first step in disabling FRP, as the device must be reset to its original settings.
- Connect the device to a Wi-Fi network: After resetting the device, you'll need to connect it to a Wi-Fi network to proceed with the setup process.
- Go to the "Settings" app: From the home screen, open the "Settings" app.
- Find the "Accounts" or "Google" section: Depending on the device and operating system version, this section may be located under different names. Look for options related to "Accounts" or "Google."
- Remove or sign out of your Google account: In the "Accounts" or "Google" section, you should see an option to remove or sign out of your Google account. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete this step. This should disable the Factory Reset Protection.
- Finish the setup process: After removing your Google account, you should be able to complete the setup process without being asked for the previous owner's Google account information.
Note: Disabling FRP may affect other security features on the device, so proceed with caution.
