    Factory Reset

    WARNING! When you factory reset your device, all your personal data located on the phone’s internal memory will be deleted, including contacts, media files and ringtones, downloaded content, apps etc. In addition, all settings will be restored to factory values. However, data located on the SIM and SD cards won’t be affected.

    NOTE: Before you reset the device, you can check this thread for a guide on how to back up app data, contacts, and media files, and this thread for instructions on restoring data.
