Why reset your Plum Boot 2?

A hard reset on the Plum Boot 2 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 Plum Boot 2?

Yes. A hard reset (also called a factory reset) erases all apps, photos, messages, and accounts, returning the Plum Boot 2 to its out-of-box state. Back up anything you want to keep before starting.

Does resetting the Plum Boot 2 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 Plum Boot 2?

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 Plum Boot 2 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.

What is recovery mode on my Plum Boot 2?

Recovery mode is a stripped-down menu outside the normal operating system, used to wipe data or apply updates when the Plum Boot 2 won't boot normally. See the Enter Recovery Mode section above for how to reach it on this device.

How do I reset my Plum Boot 2?

Use the Factory Reset method above — the Plum Boot 2 doesn't have a separate hardware hard-reset combination, so this is the method that applies.

Can I factory reset my Plum Boot 2 without the password?

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