Why reset your Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness?

Frequently asked questions
Will a hard reset delete everything on my Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness?
Yes. A hard reset (also called a factory reset) erases all apps, photos, messages, and accounts, returning the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness to its out-of-box state. Back up anything you want to keep before starting.
Does resetting the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness 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 Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness?
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 Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness 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.
