Android Recovery - how to use the helpful mode

Android, just like Apple's iOS, is one of the two major operating systems that have made their mark on the smartphone market. But there can be a bug with Android that causes the phone to stop booting. For this case, there is the recovery mode.

What do you need to know about the Android recovery mode?

The Android recovery mode is an operating system that provides only the most basic functions. Here, the individual options are displayed without a user interface and only with text. The functionality is also not particularly large. Only recovery, maintenance and installation functions are available.

1. You can reset the smartphone. "wipe data/ factory reset" are the options that accomplish this. Attention, this really erases all data and can not be restored.
2. "Wipe cache partition" use to clear the cache memory. This option is useful when the phone no longer starts properly.
3. Use "apply update from adb" to apply an update via the Android Debug Bridge.
4. "apply update from external storage" helps you install Android from an SD card or the memory inside the phone.
5. Mit „reboot system now“ können Sie das komplette Handy neu starten und den Recovery Modus verlassen.
6. Mit „apply update from cache“ können Sie Android direkt aus dem Cache-Speicher des Smartphones installieren.
