Factory Reset

If your Google Play Services keeps stopping, it may be due to a corrupt cache or data. You can try clearing your cache and data from the Google Play Services app in your Settings. If that doesn’t fix the problem, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling the app.

You should only factory reset as a last resort, as it will delete all of your data and settings. To factory reset your device, go to Settings > System > Reset options and select “Factory reset”.
