    My Nokia 6680 has remnants of past installs that I have long since
    removed and it is hogging the pathetically small 10 Meg of internal RAM,
    causing the phone to hang and even reset at times. I have tried the
    *#7780# to restore the phone to factory settings but it does not remove
    all the crap.

    Does anyone know how to clean the phone up completely so none of the
    crap is left?

    Switch off the phone.

    Hold down the following three keys: Green (call) key, * key, and '3' key.

    While holding these keys down, press the power key and switch on the phone

    When the message 'Formatting' appears on the screen, release all of the
    buttons. The "Formatting" message is also intermittent; you may also need
    to try a reformat a couple of times before it gets rid of all the dross.

    Note that you shouldn't switch the phone off or remove the battery when
    performing either of these operations, and it's advised that the handset has
    a reasonable amount of battery charge before performing a format/reset.

    Don't know if this will work as I don't have a 6680, got the details from
    someone who reckons it did work.

    I don't have any of these problems with a 6310i
