As written in the FAQ:

Q: How do I format my phone?
A: - Normal Reset (*#7780#) : Restores ini files from rom but preserves user data (photos, 3rd party apps etc)
- Deep Reset (*#7370#) : This reformats completely the C: drive. All applications and files stored on this drive will be lost and clean default files will be rewritten.

In both case, the phone will ask you a confirmation and you will have to enter a security code (12345 by default).

Files and applications stored on E: drive are not be affected by these sequences.

For Symbian OS 7 and higher there is a third method:
Turn phone off, press and hold the green (talk) key on the left + number 3 on the keypad + the * key and then turn the phone back on.

The phone will start the formatting process without confirmation!

Well, so I do the second tips cause I cant make the first. the phone was before in frensh and when I hold on *+3+Call. It became in english, so I think the Nokia was succesfully format but when I try 12345 as a Lock Code, it doesnt work.

Any Idea ? icon_biggrin.gif plz
