Factory resetting your Android device is a reliable way to fix persistent software issues, boost performance, or prepare the device for a new user. For owners of SSA Android tablet PC WiFi models—whether they serve as digital photo frames, digital signage displays, or specialized tablets—knowing the right reset process is essential. SSA, a leading manufacturer with over 17 years of experience, offers OEM/ODM customization that may modify default Android behaviors, making this guide tailored specifically to their devices.
Before you begin, take these critical steps to protect your data and ensure a successful reset:
Factory reset erases all user data, including photos, videos, apps, and settings. For SSA devices:
Ensure your device has at least 50% battery. A sudden power loss during reset can brick the device. For commercial digital signage models, keep them plugged into a power source throughout the process.
If your device was customized via SSA's OEM/ODM services (e.g., custom boot logos, specialized software), document these settings. You may need to reconfigure them after reset or contact SSA support for restoration.
Android 5.1+ devices have FRP enabled by default. Sign out of your Google account before resetting to avoid lockouts: Go to Settings > Accounts > Google > Remove Account .
Ideal for responsive devices where you can access the settings menu.
Steps:
Use this method if your device is unresponsive, frozen, or you've forgotten your screen lock password.
First, enter Recovery Mode using the correct key combination for your SSA model:

SSA's OEM/ODM services mean many devices have unique configurations. Here's what to know:
After reset, reconfigure WiFi settings and re-add photo sources. Custom gallery apps from SSA may need to be reinstalled—check the device's user manual for links.
Resetting erases custom launchers and remote management software. Contact SSA support for OEM/ODM-specific firmware or software packages to restore functionality.
Parental control settings and educational apps will be removed. Back up app lists and settings before resetting, and reinstall them from the Google Play Store afterward.
Custom branding (boot logos, packaging) remains, but user data is erased. For custom software restoration, provide your device's serial number to SSA support.
After reset, follow these steps to set up your device:
ｓｅｌｅｃｔ language, region, and WiFi network. OEM/ODM devices may display SSA's brand logo during boot.
If FRP is enabled, sign in with the same Google account used before reset to unlock the device.
Use your backup to restore photos, apps, and settings. For digital photo frames, transfer images back to the device.
For digital signage, set up content schedules and remote management. For OEM/ODM units, apply custom settings provided by SSA.
Check for firmware updates in Settings > About Device > Software ｕｐｄａｔｅ . SSA releases regular updates for performance and security.
Wipe the cache partition again in Recovery Mode. If issues persist, reflash the firmware using SSA's OEM/ODM ｕｐｄａｔｅ files.
Sign in with the original Google account. If forgotten, verify ownership with SSA support using your device's serial number.
Ensure the router broadcasts a 2.4GHz network (some older SSA devices don't support 5GHz). For digital signage with external antennas, check connections.
Download the latest software from SSA's website or contact support for OEM/ODM-specific packages.
