Hello friends! I have a question.

Can we factory reset a device which is on a beta testing program. Any bad effects? Any benefits?
Plz reply. Every answer will be accepted as a Solution, except an answer from Goodthings, of course.😁

Better to get out of beta program, install stable released software, take a backup and then go for factory reset.

Yes, you can safely factory reset your device for bug fixing, performance improvement and battery stability. There are no known disadvantages of resetting the device, except data loss, which you can back up upfront. Thanks.

Do not factory reset your phone if it is in the beta testing phase unless you're ready to face the consequences.

I have seen a post regarding the same. One person did the same without knowing the issues that would follow. The beta banner in the Samsung Members app shows "recruitment closed" instead of "joined." He was forced to visit the Samsung service center for a stable rollback. Your phone would remain in the beta version but you won't receive any further beta updates. (Not even stable update in some cases unless you perform a roll back).

If you have any issues, wait until the stable rollout. Or, if necessary, perform a rollback to the previous stable version using the Smart Switch PC version, which will automatically delete your data (factory reset your device).

You can find all information in the beta section and YouTube videos.
