Frequently asked questions
Will a hard reset delete everything on my vivo S10e?
Yes. A hard reset (also called a factory reset) erases all apps, photos, messages, and accounts, returning the vivo S10e to its out-of-box state. Back up anything you want to keep before starting.
Does resetting the vivo S10e 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 vivo S10e?
Typically a few minutes, though it can take longer on older or heavily used devices as more stored data has to be wiped.
Will I need my Google account password after resetting the vivo S10e?
Yes, if Factory Reset Protection (FRP) is enabled. Android (and HarmonyOS 2.x devices with Google services) will ask for the last signed-in Google account after a reset — make sure you know that password first.
What is recovery mode on my vivo S10e?
Recovery mode is a stripped-down menu outside the normal operating system, used to wipe data or apply updates when the vivo S10e won't boot normally. See the Enter Recovery Mode section above for how to reach it on this device.
Does my vivo S10e have a hard reset button?
Not a single dedicated button — the vivo S10e uses a button combination instead of one labeled "reset." See the Hard Reset section above for the exact keys to press.
How do I reset my vivo S10e?
Use the Hard Reset method above if your vivo S10e is frozen or won't respond, or the Factory Reset method if the screen still works normally — both are covered step by step on this page.
