What to do before selling android phone?

Others 430 views 3 replies

I have done a lot of accounting on my Android phone and want to know the steps on how to delete sensitive data on the phone. I searched the forum and no similar question being asked. However, I think this is something that worths discussing as security has been a big concern in nowadays.

Backup all your data on the phone to computer or cloud, and do factory reset.

I tested it on my LG G4. What surprises me is that the files can be retrieved by Recuva, a free data recovery app.

You must save and transfer important information for you.
