does restoring damage phone/battery?

[Nastybloodlust]

I have a brother who keeps restoring my galaxy s8+, don't know why hes doing that, he likes to **** me off so I gotta reinstall everything etc...he have done it several times today..(like 10times maybe today ) and like everyday since I got the phone. hes probally jelly lol

does this damage the phone/battery somehow?

just got the phone so I dont want something bad happens...

Restoring? Like factory reset?

 

[pinkvikchick]

In my honest uneducated opinion, I wouldn't think so- but maybe you wanna consider putting a lock on it (password, FP, pattern...) Or adopting your brother out

Nah, does nothing to it. What may damage the battery however is exposing it to extreme heat or letting it drop to 0%. Yeah, put a password on it! Fingerprint or Iris scanner.

A password is a good idea to have regardless. Although as long as you leave it accessible to him, he can just put the wrong password in enough times to wipe it. You have a few choices, don't leave it unattended for him to abuse it or teach him something called respecting others property. Good luck

Stop leaving your unlocked phone lying around.

Go to settings>lockscreen>secure lock settings>auto factory reset>turn off

This is so that the phone will not reset even after putting multiple wrong entries

Honestly I'm just thinking of beating the crap out of him. Lol.
