Back up, remove your Google account so Factory Reset Protection can't lock out the next owner, then wipe. Stock Android and Samsung reset paths, step by step.

Force restart, charge, and safe mode steps for an Android phone that won't turn on, plus a symptom-to-fix table that works across Pixel and Samsung.

Hide apps from the drawer on Samsung's One UI, lock private ones in Secure Folder or Private Space, and disable bloatware — with what each really does.
