My S3 has a cracked LCD and I cannot see anything. the phone works. How can I do a factory reset since I cannot see anything? Is there a software that can do factory reset on galaxy S3?
thanks
 
Hey there!

While it may not be very convenient to use, reinstalling the system software via Odin will completely wipe the phone for you.

However, you probably have to have USB debugging already turned on in order for that to be successful

Another option would be remotely via a security app that you've installed, assuming you have one installed
 
We could probably blind guide you through a factory reset but youre never gona know if it was successful lol. Why do you wana reset it?
 
Download odin (youll find it easy on google) on your pc, put the phone in download mode and flash firmware onto it (tbh i didnt think that wiped data(?)
Or look into the ADB pc software. Its something ive never used but im sure you could use it to send a command to the phone to wipe it
