This should be unnecessary and is likely a large part of why people don't. There are loads of reasons it is not possible to wipe a device. I have one which reboots before any point it will accept input.
- bamfly 3y agoI've rarely (... never?) retired a phone that was still usable enough to wipe it. Most could be repaired to a usable state, but at like 50% the cost of a new phone, so I just get a new one instead (since by then there are usually a bunch of other parts just waiting to go bad). Definitely not gonna spend that money so I can wipe them in order to recycle them.
