How to factory reset a Sony Phone

George_Bud

I got this phone from a junk market and I wanted to factory reset it. It has a pin code on it. I dont know it.

Is there anyway to factory reset this phone ?

And how ?

Sony Xperia Z5 Dual

If it was stolen it might have an activation lock, if it does you've got a paperweight.

You need a model specific method. Involving opening the internals to reach the reset pin. Google it.
