You can take a hard reset when you want to wipe all data on the Vivo V9 smartphone. When you opt to hard reset you are choosing to return the device to its original factory state: no apps, no settings changes, and no photos will remain once the reset has been completed.
It does not matter which version of Android you run on the Vivo V9 smartphone; you can hard reset it with the same steps. There are only two or three official versions of Android that arrived during its lifespan and they each have the same menu for backing up and resetting, which is the menu you use in this guide.

Once the hard reset had returned the device to its default factory state, it will have all data wiped and you will need to restore that data from a backup if you want it back on the device.
In conclusion, that is how to hard reset the Vivo V9 PD1730F smartphone.
