What are the possible resetting?
Soft Reset, hard reset, etc...
And how do I do them?
WIll they harm the OS in anyway?
I want to clean the device after testing it so it will be clean when it is given as a gift.
Put it back in the state as it was (hard reset).
Possible in the menu (Settings/Privacy), or: Take the sim out, and than *2767*3855#

also please tell me when i do this reset my current stock rom (LB2) will be revereted to kl3 or i will be in lb2
i am noob
thanks
Soft reset is nothing just removing background application/process. As you just reboot your device.
Hard reset, wipe off your data, n will b just as out of box.
you can do with
1. setting - privacy - factory data reset (if you select format USB storage, then only data on USB storage will be wiped, as such no needed)
2.From recovery, Vol up + home + power - select wipe data
Hard reset won't revert back to previous ROM, it will same ROM which is you have right now. To revert back to old ROM, you need PC Odin.

How do you hard reset and/or wipe & return to factory settings ?
thanks
Settings/About/Reset
Hard Reset ( Warning this also wipe and format SD Card)
Hard Reset
Power off device
Power on holding down up / down volume buttons
Follow the screen instructions or just press the down volume button.
Defo some software bugs here as I had a checksum error when I did this the first time.
Hi,
I have installed the Overcome Rom v4.0 on my Galaxy Tab. Now I need to wipe it with a hard reset.
I choose factory reset within the settings menu. It brings up the 3e recovery menu. I choose "wipe data / factory reset" but when the reboot finishes, nothing has changed! All my data is still on the machine.
I am using the "home" button as the "Enter" button. This is the only item I found to fulfill this function.
Is this correct? What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the search button is the "execute" button.
To be sure, use vol up and vol down to scroll, and tap the power button to execute

May have a easier way...but you can do this:
- Shut down your phone
- Hold the buttons Vol up + Home + Power
- You will enter in recovery stock mode
- Select wipe data/factory reset
- Select wipe cache
- Reboot system now
Doing this steps your phone will return in factory pattern.
Wait a better suggestion....sorry my bad english
Edited: Remembering that this method delete all your user data!

Hi,
As my phone cannot boot properly and the only screen I can get to is the bootloader screen (Power + Volume Down). I'm going to send my phone to get it fixed but I also have some pictures and data that I want to delete. Will factory reset or clear cache or any of the option on bootloader will securely delete all my data?
Best

if you have a stock recovery, or you are unrooted, this will do the job I did it several times.... so go for it... it'll delete all data including sdcard when using stock recovery and being unrooted !
Hey you guys if you are having trouble getting into recovery mode using the hardware keys use these instructions..
Master reset with hardware keys
If the device menus are frozen or unresponsive, you can master reset using hardware keys.
To perform a master reset with the hardware keys, follow these steps.
Power off the device.
At the same time, press and hold the Volume Down and Power keys until the LG logo appears.
When the LG logo appears, quickly release the Power key and press and hold it again.
Release all keys when the Factory data reset screen appears.
Use the Volume keys to select Yes and then press the Power key to confirm.
For there it should take you to your custom recovery (CWM or TWRP) I used this tip yesterday and it worked for me, I had used TWRP to restore my phone.. (It's my first time using TWRP and I'm really liking it so far)
Anyways have a good one you guys, be sure to leave a like for me thanks.
Didn't work so well for me. It actually performed a data wipe, giving me a fresh install of CM11. Glad I backed up first.

Change to one of the newer recoveries. Factory reset has been deactivated because of the key combos needed to enter recovery.
