Performing a hard/factory reset
You can return your phone to its original state, as it was when it left the
factory. This is also called a hard reset. You might want to do this if you
are giving your phone to a friend or relative and you want to remove
all your data first, or if your phone has a persistent problem that is not
solved by powering off the phone and then powering it on again.
Factory reset is not a step to be taken lightly. It permanently erases all
your data and customized settings, and also removes any applications
you have downloaded and installed. Make sure that you have backed
up the information and files you want to keep before you do a factory
reset.
If your phone hangs or freezes, we recommend that you do a "soft"
reset instead of a hard/factory reset. To perform a soft reset, remove
the battery, wait for a few seconds, and then re-install it. After re-
installing the battery, turn on the phone.
