My wife got a nice new used phone from a friend for me. Being paranoid I don't trust the phone. Google tells me that a factory reset will not necessarily rid the phone of possible evil malware. Further Google tells me there is a process "flash a new image on my phone bootloader mode" that should rid the phone of possible evil but it seems complicated. Anyone ever do such a thing and is it a hard process. One of the steps seems to rely on a third party app which seems like a non-starter to me (no trust, I do trust Samsung's website though).
My Galaxy S9 works great but the S22 ultra seems worth the work to wipe it clean.
Thanks for any advice.
