Nokia cell phones are renowned for their reliability. However, even the best technique sometimes fails. If Nokia 5800 starts to reboot spontaneously, often freezes or suddenly the screen stops responding to pressing, it is quite possible that the user will have to do a soft reset. And in the most critical cases, you should reset all phone settings to factory preset values.
It is necessary
- - technical digital codes of Nokia 5800;
- - Nokia PC Suite software;
- - USB cable and computer.
Instructions
Step 1
Before resetting all custom to factory settings on your Nokia 5800 phone, make sure you have backed up your phone. All important data must be saved on your computer. If the package did not include the software CD, you need to go online and download Nokia PC Suite. In this case, you should pay attention to the version of this program. It is better to download the latest modification, since only in this case you can be sure that the phone will be detected by the installed program correctly, and the data exchange between the computer and the device will take place in normal mode.
Step 2
Please remove the external micro SD card before performing a factory restore on your phone. This is optional. Nevertheless, many experts pay attention to the problems arising after a factory reset related to formatting an external memory card. In some cases, the card was not recognized by the phone and computer. Therefore, for its further use, it was necessary to resort to formatting the micro SD through a special card reader, as a result of which all user data was lost.
Step 3
Charge the device battery immediately before performing a factory reset. Any disruption in the power supply when restarting the phone will lead to a mandatory visit to the service center.
Step 4
Restore your phone to factory settings using a special code. Dial * # 7370 # and agree to the phone's formatting request. Wait for the completion of the recovery procedure. Sometimes the Nokia 5800 may ask for a confirmation code to confirm the transaction. If this code has not previously been specially changed by the user, by default you need to dial a combination of numbers 12345.
Step 5
Please note that there are two more ways to factory reset your Nokia smartphone. The first of them involves action through the menu of the device and is called soft reset or "soft reset". Press "Menu", then select "Options", "Phone management", "Initial settings". The settings will be reset in this case "softly", that is, the user data will not be affected. However, very often it is custom settings that cause system failures. This means that the problem will not be solved even after restoring the original settings of the device.
