Factory reset without accessing phone settings I have a Micromax A35 Android(2.3.5) phone which has been locked by repeated wrong attempts of the pattern lock.

Now the display screen asks me to enter my Google account username and password, but the WiFi and the mobile networks are disabled.

Is there a way to factory reset the phone without having access to the settings?
First, even without having a network connection, you can try to unlock it with your Google account data. Usually the device stores a "token", so you might be able to log in.

Second, if that does not help, you might want to take a look at the locked-out tag-wiki, and at Cannot unlock tablet as have no internet connection?. There might still be a chance to unlock your device.

If nothing else helps, a factory-reset can also be done from the recovery-mode:


Shut down your device
hold the Vol + button and keep it pressed while additionally press the Power button. Keep both pressed until a text-menu appears
(if that doesn't work, try again while substituting Vol + with Vol -)
use the volume buttons to select "Factory Reset"
execute the item (usually done by short-pressing the Power button or by pressing the 'show more' button at the bottom-left of your phone)
