Orbic Tab8 5G - Factory Data Reset (Powered Off)

Here's how to factory / hard reset your Orbic Tab8 5G if the screen freezes or call, app, audio or sync issues occur and the device won't start up.
  • Perform a factory data reset on your Orbic® Tab8 5G™ only if necessary as it removes your Google™ account and all data including system data, app data and media.
  • For devices with Android™ Device Protection turned on, it's imperative Google sign-in credentials are known prior to completing a factory reset with the device powered off. If credentials are unknown, do one of the following:
  • If a pattern, PIN, etc. is or has ever been set up on the device, Google account sign-in is required during initial setup.
  1. Ensure the device is powered off.
    If the device is responsive and can be powered on, the preferred reset method should be performed.
  2. Press and hold the
    Power and Volume up buttons
    on the edge of the device until the Orbic splash screen appears on the screen, then release only the Power button until the Recovery screen displays.
  3. From the 'Android Recovery' screen select
    Wipe data/factory reset
    .
    Use the Volume buttons to cycle through available options and the Power button to select.
  4. Select
    Factory data reset
    .
  5. Select
    Reboot system now
    .
    Allow several minutes for the factory data reset process to complete.
    If applicable, set up your device.
