Why reset your LG KU990 Viewty?

Frequently asked questions
Will a hard reset delete everything on my LG KU990 Viewty?
Yes. A hard reset (also called a factory reset) erases all apps, photos, messages, and accounts, returning the LG KU990 Viewty to its out-of-box state. Back up anything you want to keep before starting.
Does resetting the LG KU990 Viewty 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 LG KU990 Viewty?
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 LG KU990 Viewty 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 LG KU990 Viewty have a hard reset button?
No — the LG KU990 Viewty doesn't have a dedicated hard reset button or button combination. Use the Factory Reset method above instead.
How do I format my LG KU990 Viewty?
"Formatting" and "factory resetting" mean the same thing for the LG KU990 Viewty — both erase all data and restore default settings. Use whichever method above matches your situation.
What is recovery mode on my LG KU990 Viewty?
Recovery mode is a stripped-down menu outside the normal operating system, used to wipe data or apply updates when the LG KU990 Viewty won't boot normally. See the Enter Recovery Mode section above for how to reach it on this device.
