thank you for reading about my problem

I reset my phone and now I want to recover my electrum wallet

what I know:
1. 1 bitcoin address, my friend sent me some amount of bitcoin on it
2. password which I wrote when creating wallet

what I DO NOT know: seed ( very long phrase which you must type when creating new wallet )

how can I restore my wallet with this information ?

If you can contact a mobile phone expert or you are knowledgeable in mobile phone rom, try to recover your erased wallet file from that phone.
Any erased storage can be recovered by a specialized recovery tool, one must need expert knowledge in order to successfully recover a file using those tools.
If you got the password and didn't know the seed, the only way to access your btc again is to recover that wallet file.

I'm not using a mobile version of electrum myself, but try to look for the wallet file in your SD card (wallet_1 default name if you didn't changed it during creation).
