How best to WIPE a Nokia N95 8GB (Going in for repair)

reddeviluk · 24-09-2009, 2:23 PM

Hi Guys, I am planning on dropping off my N95 8GB as it's developed a bit of a fault and while it's under warranty I may as well get the free repair. My one problem is that I have things on my phone I would rather keep private, photo's of the family are easily erased, as are contacts etc, but I really want to make sure that my surfing sites that contain my email address and passwords etc are 100% clean. Is there a best way to do this, kind of a re-format before I take the phone in?.

Cheers,

Rich

Type:

*#7370# for a soft reset

There is a hard reset option as well, but I can't remember exactly which key combination this is. Your manual will tell you.

*#7370# is a hard reset, lol, and a hard reset is what you are looking for - this will put your phone back into its factory state.
