How to Hard Reset HTC One E8
If HTC One (E8) has a persistent problem that cannot be solved, you can perform the hard reset (hard reset or master reset). A hard reset reverts the phone back to its initial state — the state before you turned on the phone for the first time.
The following will be removed from the phone when you do a hard reset:
- Your Google Account
- All accounts you've added in
Settings >
Accounts & sync and the data associated with these accounts
- Personal data that you've created or synced to the phone such as your profile, contacts, messages, email, calendar events, and more.
- System and application data and settings
- Downloaded apps
Files such as your music, photos, videos, and documents can also be deleted from the storage, if you chose to do so.
Be sure to back up any data and files you want to keep before you do a hard reset.
Performing the Hard Reset
1. Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then press and hold the POWER button.
2. Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the POWER and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
3. Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER button.
Restoring your backup from your online storage
If you used HTC Backup before, you can restore your backup to HTC One (E8) when you turn the phone on for the first time or after a factory reset.
Depending on the amount of content, restoring your backup to your phone through your data connection may incur additional data costs and take a long time. Using a Wi-Fi® connection is recommended.
1. When you're asked whether you have a Google® Account, sign in to your account.
2. Use your mobile data or Wi-Fi connection to connect your phone to the Internet.
3. If you used your Google login credentials as your HTC Account and your backup is in Google Drive™, tap Sign in with Google.
If not, tap Remind me later, go to the Transfer or restore screen, and select Restore from HTC Backup.
4. Follow the onscreen instructions to restore your backup and to continue setting up your phone.
5. Slide open the Notifications panel to check if there's any notification to finish setting up your phone.
Free apps from Google Play™ will be restored in the background, and you can track the progress via a notification in the status bar. To restore paid apps, you need to download and install them from Google Play.
Your apps will appear on the Apps screen as they are installed. The Apps and Home screen shortcuts will be reorganized as in your backup after all of your apps have been installed. You may continue using HTC One (E8) while apps are being restored.
Transferring content from an Android phone
On your old Android phone, download the HTC Transfer Tool and use it to transfer your content to your new HTC phone. The types of locally stored content on your old phone that the tool can transfer include contacts, messages, calendar events, web bookmarks, music, photos, and videos. Some settings can also be transferred.
Warning:
- You need Android version 2.2 or later to use the HTC Transfer Tool on your old phone.
- If your old phone has Android version 2.1 or an earlier version, you need to use Bluetooth® transfer.
1. If you're setting up your new HTC phone for the first time, select Get content from old phone.

5. When you see a PIN on your old phone, make sure the same PIN also appears on your new phone before you continue.
Note: If the PIN code doesn't appear, this may mean that your old phone is unable to connect to your new phone. If this happens, try another transfer method.
6. On your old phone, choose the types of content you want to transfer, and then tap Start or Transfer.
7. Wait for the transfer to finish.
8. Tap Done on both phones.
Transferring content from an iPhone
If you have an iPhone, it's fast and easy to transfer your contacts, messages, and other content when you use HTC Sync Manager.
Transferring contacts from your old phone through Bluetooth
Use Bluetooth to transfer contacts from an iPhone, a phone that has Android version 2.1 (or earlier version), or other types of phones. Depending on the capabilities of your old phone, you may be able to transfer not only contacts but also other data such as calendar events and text messages to your new HTC phone.
