Can you clear/wipe/reset the memory in this device back to factory defaults? I'd like it to forget all devices.

The headset has no memory. It is the other devices that "remember" the paired devices.

Most bluetooth devices do not have this feature. The best way to do this is to pair it to two different devices, which will wipe the first 2 devices from its memory.Contrary to Larry S, bluetooth devices do 'remember' the devices of which it is paired to. If it did not there would be a big security risk of even using them. When they are first 'paired' they exchange a security code to encrypt the communications.Sometimes letting the device's battery run down and leaving it for an extended period of time will erase the pairings, but that is not recommended as it damages the battery by doing that.

No. I dont think so. I've done the setup process twice with a factory reset in between and nothing bad happened. Best wishes

There is no reset but what I would do is completely disconnect from everything and reconnect. Doing so will change the date to factory date. That you have to do it manually under setting and reconnect again. I don't know what exactly your situation is but every time it works for me. Once in a while I have to do this coz, it freezes or just getting old, don't know. But having said that, this device has worked great for me. Even better than roku hd or smart tv because it has full android function so you can search web and do beyond. only thing is keyboard has to be used. i have not found any mobile apps yet unless, I am not looking hard enough. hope it helps.

For what it is worth, I am not aware of any specific "reset" to factory settings. The manual does not indicate any such thing. However, to overwrite memorized data you simply follow the procedures for personal data entry and make whatever changes needed. It would appear that one could manually set the data to zero everything out. I cannot confirm that, but wanted to at least offer the suggestion that is indicated in the manual that personal info can be overwritten. Good luck!

Have you tried deleting all app data? Can also remove and re install the app or if that doesn't work a factory reset will.

Factory reset the item so that is can clear the issues you're experiencing.

I don't know, I stopped using mine because it had like zero memory. Wasn't smart enough

No there is no reset. I guess you could just unplug it and that would reset it. I have 3, my first one about 3 years ago and I never have ever had to reset it. These things work well!

Algee ... thanks for the update. After I did all the updates on my unit, the apps still would not work too. That is when I called Lenovo & was told to do the Factory Reset AFTER the updates were installed. You may wish to try this before sending it in. It worked for me.

i think you have to do a hard reset. you will lose everything. 1. Turn Phone off 2. Press and hold Volume up button then Press and hold Power button till a menu will come out "Android system recovery" 4. Use the Volume button to scroll up and down and use the Camera button to select (click on). 5. Scroll down to "Wipe data/factory reset" and click on it. 6. Scroll down to "Yes -- delete all user data" and click on it. 7. After "Data wipe complete" click on "reboot system now"

Mine did not. It has a recovery partition to restore back to factory default.

I just fixed everything after 3.5 hours of research. Samsung has a message on the most frequently asked questions. One of the questions referred to the hacked unit. They give instructions on how to reset everything. Eventually after following these instructions, and looking into my ip address etc, I got everything back to factory settings. I appreciate the web page help.

My unit works great , i use it every day. I would hook it up and charge it completely. I do not remember how but there is a reset to factory setting process. Also google the issue and you may find an answer, there are so software updates available for it.

must choose factory configuration, but deletes all the save in the tablet witch music, videos... another option is to upgrade the store.

Contacted Lenovo Tech Suppport .... if you're getting the Force close dialog box on your apps .... do a factory reset.

I haven't touched it since I got it. It was great out of the box. Try going back to the factory settings.

Well I'm going to get the old unit back and try that. They offered a replacement unit but only a 90 day warranty with that one!I am going to buy a zi8 instead as that has removeable memory!
