How to Hard Reset and Format Nokia N8 to Factory Default?
If you think some problem happen at our Nokia N8, better to try doing factory reset. To do thins make sure everything already backup such as contact and other data. There are several way to Factory Reset Nokia N8:
# Option One, Reset Nokia N8 using default menu
Nokia N8 have already have the factory default facility at main menu, try to do it when we still can operate Nokia N8 before reset:
Menu > Settings > Phone > Phone mgmt > Factory Setting > Delete Data and Restore
# Option two, Reset Nokia N8 using Dial Pad Key
- Turn On the Nokia N8
- Ready at dial or phone position
- Input the keypad with *#7370# then choose YES
- If Nokia N8 ask for phone lock, use default 12345
# Option three, Reset Nokia N8 Using hardware key (this is dangerous, read carefully before do this)
If you can not open any menu or Nokia N8 stuck and can not start anything, the last change that you can do is reset it using hardware key, but this step will erase everything and all data will empty such as Ovi application. So consider carefully before doing option three (hardware reset)
- Turn off the Nokia N8
- Press and Hold together “VOLUME DOWN + CAMERA BUTTON + MENU BUTTON + POWER BUTTON“
- do not release the button at step 2 until Nokia N8 vibrate and the screen will appear again
- Finish to reset to factory default Nokia N8
