Lock out factory reset

Is there anyway to lock out the factory reset? My son has looked up how to factory reset the headset, which allows him to be the device owner. Is there a way to put a passcode for factory resetting or something?

Hi @cheapdealer 🙂

Your son is a smart guy😅... although I completely understand that you don't want him to do that.

But there is no (normal) way to protect the headset from factory resetting... that would defeat the purpose of factory resetting, right?

What if you have to do a factory reset for some reason, but you've forgotten the passcode??

You'll have a useless device then.
