The next step, step 5 which is the actual factory reset, only works when the device is being turn on. And you need to hold the power button down with the device connected to USB for the full 30 seconds for it to work.
Been trying to do 30s+ and 5s presses when the light is on and when it is off. It seems that any press over 5s has the same effect of just toggling the indicator light on the button on or off. The screen never changes, it just says "Restarting" in 8 different languages.
