It depends. A factory setup from More => Settings => Device information will retain the current firmeware revision, If Developer Mode (do a search for devmodeon) has been enable, the Factory reset from More => Settings => Device information => Developer Options will revert to the factory firmware version. A manual factory reset will always revert to the factory firmware version.
For the Clara HD, the manual factory reset procedure is:
Before starting the factory reset, charge your Clara HD for a least an hour and make sure you have access to a WiFi network.
- Leave your Clara HD connected to the power source you were using to charge it whether your computer or a wall wart.
- Press and hold the power button until you see the words “Powered off” on the screen or 30 seconds have passed, whichever comes first. The power light should also be off.
- Release the power button.
- Press and hold down the power button. The power light should turn on and then turn off.
- After the power light turns off, release the power button.
- Your Clara HD should start the factory reset process. You should see a black screen that tells you the eReader is resetting. Do not turn off your eReader during this process.
