Why reset your Icemobile Submarine?

A hard reset on the Icemobile Submarine fixes boot loops, forgotten PINs and persistent lag. The method above will 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 Icemobile Submarine?

Yes. A hard reset (also called a factory reset) erases all apps, photos, messages, and accounts, returning the Icemobile Submarine to its out-of-box state. Back up anything you want to keep before starting.

Does resetting the Icemobile Submarine 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 Icemobile Submarine?

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 Icemobile Submarine 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.

How do I reset my Icemobile Submarine?

Use the Factory Reset method above — the Icemobile Submarine doesn't have a separate hardware hard-reset combination, so this is the method that applies.

How do I format my Icemobile Submarine?

"Formatting" and "factory resetting" mean the same thing for the Icemobile Submarine — both erase all data and restore default settings. Use whichever method above matches your situation.

Can I factory reset my Icemobile Submarine without the password?

Yes — the reset methods above don't require your lock screen password, since they bypass the normal login screen entirely.
