# Factory Reset Without a Screen

If your screen pixels are unavailable, you can reset the device through ADB:

1. Install `adb` (see [How to install ADB and Fastboot](https://community.e.foundation/t/howto-installing-adb-and-fastboot-on-your-computer/3051)).

2. Reboot the phone into the recovery environment.

3. Run `adb shell twrp wipe data` (this clears app data only; user files on internal storage remain).

4. Remove your media/files with `adb shell rm -rf /sdcard/*`.

> ⚠️ These commands permanently delete files; back anything important up first.

# How to update /e/OS

1. Open the updater (`Settings > System > Advanced > Updater`).

2. Tap **Download** on the most recent release. If nothing appears, refresh the list via the top-right button. LTE users may be prompted to switch to Wi-Fi.

3. Once the firmware downloads, tap **Install** and confirm.

4. When installation finishes, reboot the device to apply the update.

## Factory reset without a screen

If your screen is unavailable, you can clean the device via ADB:

1. Install `adb` (see [How to install ADB and Fastboot](https://community.e.foundation/t/howto-installing-adb-and-fastboot-on-your-computer/3051)).

2. Reboot the device into recovery mode.

3. Run `adb shell twrp wipe data`. This command only wipes app data; user files stay on internal storage.

4. Remove stored files with `adb shell rm -rf /sdcard/*`.

   > ⚠️ Installers should note that the storage cleanup permanently deletes files; back up anything important first.
