Why reset your Asus P320?
A hard reset on the Asus P320 fixes boot loops, forgotten PINs and persistent lag. Using Volume Down + Power, you can access recovery mode and wipe the device back to factory condition. Always back up your data first, as a reset cannot be undone.
Frequently asked questions
Will a hard reset delete everything on my Asus P320?
Yes. A hard reset (also called a factory reset) erases all apps, photos, messages, and accounts, returning the Asus P320 to its out-of-box state. Back up anything you want to keep before starting.
Does resetting the Asus P320 remove the SIM lock or carrier lock?
No. A hard or factory reset only clears data and settings — it doesn't remove a carrier/SIM lock, which is tied to the device's IMEI at the network level. You'd need to contact your carrier for an unlock.
How long does a factory reset take on the Asus P320?
Typically a few minutes, though it can take longer on older or heavily used devices as more stored data has to be wiped.
Does the Asus P320 lock to an account after a reset?
Usually not — Factory Reset Protection (FRP) and Activation Lock are Android and iOS features. Most other platforms, including this device's, don't add an account lock after a reset.
Does my Asus P320 have a hard reset button?
No — the Asus P320 doesn't have a dedicated hard reset button or button combination. Use the Factory Reset method above instead.
What is recovery mode on my Asus P320?
Recovery mode is a stripped-down menu outside the normal operating system, used to wipe data or apply updates when the Asus P320 won't boot normally. See the Enter Recovery Mode section above for how to reach it on this device.
Can I factory reset my Asus P320 without the password?
Yes — the reset methods above don't require your lock screen password, since they bypass the normal login screen entirely.
