[Tutorial]Formatting Phone Memory - Sikandar - Aug 23, 2009
there are some tricks how to reformat the phone memory
#1
1. Turn your phone off
2. Press --- power * call 3 --- all at the same time
3 Hold it until the phone will turn on and its should have something that says "formatting"
----> this method is usually hard because some phone's certain keys are far from each other... practice practice and practice
#2
when your phone is on..
just dial *#7370#
-i tried this to some phones but it doesnt work
but it works on other phones
#3
go to settings...
full factory reset....
there you go guys.....
tested on nokia only.....goodluck

#1 & 2 are for Nokia phones only.
#3 is pretty much universal.
#1, if you search the net.. they've coined this term as "Three Finger Salute".
This is a hard reset for S60 phones.. this method will also vary if your phone does not have physical keypad (Nokia 5800).
In this case it would be the [SEND + END + CAMERA] keys.
I'll add one while I'm at it.
To do a complete reset (erase all personal info) on a BlackBerry:
Options > Security Options > General Settings > MENU button > Wipe Handheld
You'll be prompt to type the word "Blackberry" to continue.
Do this will remove all the settings/info that you've configured on your BlackBerry.
