10.5 Resetting the Phone

Resetting the phone deletes all data, including downloaded applications, and

resets the phone back to its initial state—the state before you turned on the phone

for the first time.

Important Make sure to back up important data you have on the phone before you

perform a factory data reset.

To perform a factory data reset

If you can access the phone settings, you can perform a factory data reset from the

SD card & phone storage menu.

1. Press HOME > MENU, and then touch Settings.

2. Scroll down the screen, and then touch SD card & phone storage.

3. Navigate to the Internal phone storage section, and then touch

Factory data reset.

4. On the Factory data reset screen, touch Reset phone, and then touch

Erase everything.

To perform a factory data reset using phone buttons

If you are not able to access the phone settings, you can perform a factory data

reset by pressing a combination of phone buttons.

1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the HOME and BACK buttons, and

then briefly press the END CALL/POWER button.

2. When you see the screen with three Androids, release the HOME and BACK

buttons, and then press the TRACKBALL.
