Why reset your Xiaomi Poco M8s?

Frequently asked questions
Will a hard reset delete everything on my Xiaomi Poco M8s?
Yes. A hard reset (also called a factory reset) erases all apps, photos, messages, and accounts, returning the Xiaomi Poco M8s to its out-of-box state. Back up anything you want to keep before starting.
Does resetting the Xiaomi Poco M8s 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 Xiaomi Poco M8s?
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 Xiaomi Poco M8s?
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.
