"Ergh! Damn it!"

I was sitting in the living room, accompanied by Build, Ryuki, and Kuuga.

"So what?" Ryuki asked.

"My smartphone got bootlooped," I replied.

"Is that true?" Kuuga asked while climbing on my shoulder.

"Right. I meant to restart my smartphone, but what happened was the boot process was repeated," I replied.

Build also observed the state of my smartphone.

"I think you'd better do that, even if it's risky," said Build.

"You mean factory reset?" I asked.

Build immediately nodded his head.

At that time I was reluctant to do it.

"B-but... My pictures..., Memories with my pets, my comic files on Ibispaint..."

"I know it's tough, but you have to do it," Build said.

I looked at Build. Ryuki seemed to agree that I had to do it.

"Okay, I had to do it," I said.

I also did the factory reset steps on the HTC U11 smartphone.

I can only surrender when the factory reset process runs.

The smartphone turns on again in the same condition as when it was first used.

"According to the tutorial, press the "Let's Go" button," says Build guiding me to the next steps.

I pressed the "Let's go" button as Build said, but.....

"What is it?" Ryuki asked.

"It says here that I have to set up internet access," I answered.

"Then?"

"It doesn't show a list of available Wi-Fi access here."

"Look into the settings to detect Wi-Fi," says Build.

I also opened the settings to detect Wi-Fi, but still there is no Wi-Fi list available.

"It's not working," I said.

"Use mobile data," Kuuga suggested.

"This smartphone doesn't have a SIM card," I replied. "Besides that prior to bootloop, this smartphone had problems with not detecting Wi-Fi, even I couldn't turn on Wi-Fi in settings."

Instantly I, Build, Ryuki and Kuuga fell silent.

"You still have the tablet, don't you?" Ryuki asked.

"Yes, but Ixa uses my tablet a lot," I answered.

"Just use a tablet first. At least until you can buy a new smartphone," said Kuuga.

"Hmmm...."

A few minutes later...

"Ixa, let me use the tablet," I begged.

"But you said I could use it right?" said Ixa who is now watching a live stream on YouTube, along with Zeronos and Geiz.

"Just a moment, Ixa. At least until I can buy a new smartphone," I asked again.
