How to reset ZTE Phone to factory settings - How to open LOCKED Android phone ZTE Reset - EASY! 

I recently upgraded to a better phone and wanted to use my old ZTE phone to replace four remote controls I was using. I didn't have nearly enough space to do so. But, using your method of resetting to factory did the trick. Now, I don't have to mess with multiple remote controls for TV, soundbar, etc. My ZTE has evolved into a remote control for all. Plus, it's a rechargable remote control which saves on batteries, too. Yeehaw! Thank you for the tutorial.

Thank you so much!!! I had years of junk on my phone and no memory etc to use. Keep on doing us all a great service!!!

Thank you VERY much! My touchscreen stopped working two days after purchasing it, and I was afraid I'd have to return it without resetting the data, since I couldn't get into settings. I was _so_ relieved to see that this method only required the hard side buttons!

Thanks for this video! It seriously worked for me to unlock my old phone ! Thanks again!!

Thank you Sir! A friend hasn't been able to use his ZTE mobile phone for about 6 weeks. After watching your video I was able to get it working again. Brilliant.

I dropped my phone, it would not come all the way on. did the hard reset, and during setup was able to recover contact list . phone is working now so thanks!

Method 1 works on Hot Pepper VLE5 phone as well. Before I saw this video, I struggled nearly 4 hours to hard reset with no results. Nice tutorial. New sub too.

Thank you so much 👍 I found this a good help, worked straight away

Hello so everytime I try this,it doesn't work. does it not work on a ZTE blade a7 2019?

I've bin criying to unlock this phone and thanks to you I unlock it you deserve a crown

It's been a year since I was not able to get in so I got a new phone and saw this video and I got into it and gave it to my grandma

The VolUp/Power button simultaneous press worked on a ZTE Z320 flip-phone. The menu item to reset was just ""wipe data" instead of "Wipe data/factory reset", but other than that, it was just like in the video. I now get the language setup screen as with a really-new device. So how many times do I get to click "Like"? :-) Here's why I had to reset: My ZTE Z320 was supposedly "New open box"; in reality it has evidently been used. On power up it asked for a PIN (which of course I didn't have), and without that, all it could do was place an emergency call. (It also showed an alarm set for 6:00 AM Sunday.)

Thanks Nick I was able to reset my phone and get it unlocked. Blessings

This worked !!? thank you ...you really helped me out

Thank you very much it really helped me alot with my phone that was going crazy

Thanks it really helped me😀 I was locked out of the phone

dude you are awesome. better than visible support!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Doesn't work for me. I get a message that says: FTM To exit, long press the power key. Avoid pressing the Volume up key when turning on the handset. What should I do?

I want to get a new ZTE. Can get the better price and model on this way?

Thank you! The ZTE helpline don’t answer and I was stuck with not being able to use my phone.

Thank you I haven't touched my zte in a year so I forgot my pass and now I am in

just got home to your video good job it work

Thank you so very much for telling me this info my sister had to factory reseat her phone

I followed these directions and the Recovery Screen still popped up afterwards. Is there anything else I can do?

My zte goes to the gym screen factory test mode and it says to exitlong press the power key then it takes me back to the screen unlock. So my question is how do I get from there to the screen where I can do the wipe and factory reset. Please help

I'm have a ZTE bolt I'm can't due....I'm try and try but no work....I need your help.... please talk

does this work with a ZTE tablet?

does this work for the 4g t-mobile zte phones?

Thank you mate, excellent video and very well explained. 👍

Worked for me, thank you for your very easy to follow instructions .

Well explained. Good job.

Thank you! Worked great!

Well thank you! But my phone keep on saying it couldn't connect to the Google servers/services?

Awesome. Just unlocked my phone ❤

I forgot my password and was scared my mom would find out and I watched this 👌

Thank you it worked for both of my brother phones

Very helpful. Was able to clean my old phone before trading in for a new one.

Thanks for the help! I called tech support and we got as far as "Ok sir power down your cell phone." And then they realized "Um sir, I do not have the manual for your phone." hahahaha!

Excellent video, success on first try! Thank you sir.

I know my password the password thing is just not showing upit's saying I need to put in my password but then the letters won't show up 😡 I will be trying this I'm just sad my whole phone will be erased

Thank you for this video.

Trying to pass the welcome screen on a zte z917vl any idea about this one? I’ve tried factory reset/wiping data about ten times still wants my old email

what do i do if my ZTE phone's volume up button isnt working properly? i borrowed my brother's zte phone (we both have the same version of zte) and tried to go to the factory settings and yes, it worked but when i tried it on my zte phone, it didnt work,, it keeps on opening the phone instead of going to the factory settings,, and i think its because my volume up button is broken,, ive been trying to go on the factory setting on my zte phone fore almost an hour now, ive pressed both power button and the volume up button very hard that my fingers hurt.

would this also help with downloading things cause I try to download things that I need and it just says Waiting for download so I was wondering will it help with that?

I'm your 179,990th subscriber!!!!!!! And this video rocked because it totally helped me reset my crappy ZTE !!! Gave it a like!

Hello!! I had my samsung j5 phone. Wifi button didn't use to turn on. And i thought of resetting. I did. And at last it asked to join wifi for further finishing. What can i do now?

Help! When I do this exactly, I get a white screen that says FTM Factory test mode. I can't get to the recovery screen.

I lost my phone for 6 months and just found it but forgot my password. Thanks for the help! Now i will be able to get in and download gacha club!

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH IT WORKED I CAN FINALY GET ON MY PHONE

legit.... thanks man... worked great for boost mobile ZTE 4/21/2018

Sometimes it needs to power off via power + volume up and when it turns off (not on the Zte screen) power + volume down

Omg thank you very much. It worked for me.

If it has phone service and a number does that get wiped to?

thanks so much! this was super helpful ;w;

One thing you forgot to mention was if you Have an SD card is to unmount it and remove it before doing factory reset. Otherwise you will lose all pics and vids etc on SD card. At Least this is what I was told years ago. I guess it still applies to today's changes in system ops.

Thank you very much so helpful 👍👍👍👍

keep up the good work Nick

I don't get the same icons that you have on your homepage I don't have the second option on set up your ZTE

Didn't work for me, still ended up at the device was reset log in with previous account screen yet again. I've tried everything I can find to unlock my daughter's phone for her any other suggestions?

You are a genius thank you I just followed your instructions and I just did mines

Welp my phone gave up on me but thx for this help in the past :)

If this is done and you have a prepaid phone service, will I loose my service? I’ve bought the phone from a friend that came with service already paid for she had got a better phone through another place. I don’t mind if the service is in her name, yadda yadda. I just would like make everything else is mine. I bought the phone for the service that came with it not for the phone. So if I were to do this method an loose the service I’d be screwed outta money. Would appreciate any advise? Thanks

You da man!!!!

Great and simple.... thank you so much. 🤙
