Restarting, resetting and repairing
You can force your device to restart or shut down if it stops responding or won't
restart normally. No settings or personal data get deleted.
You can also reset your device to its original factory settings. This action is
sometimes necessary if your device stops functioning properly, but note that if you
want to keep any important data, you should first back up this data to a memory card
or other non-internal memory. For more information, see
content on page 40.
If your device fails to turn on or you want to reset your device’s software, you can use
Xperia™ Companion to repair your device. For more information on using Xperia™
Xperia™ Companion on page 38.
If you are sharing a device with multiple users, you may need to log in as the owner, that is,
the primary user, to reset your device to its original factory settings.
