How to format a Symbian phone!

Make sure your phone is fully charged. Backup your contacts list and personal files to MMC memory card (if possible) .
Switch on your S60 phone .
Press and hold these three keys together :
Hold the (*) button,
send_button (green key) and the numerical button (3) altogether and power on your phone. Continue holding down these button until your phone boots completely.
Do not let go the three keys until you see the “formatting” screen displayed.
Wait a few minutes until the format is complete. Note: In Nokia 3230, 6600, 6630, 7670, 3320 etc, it displays the word "formatting", but in N73, N79, N81, N900, N91, N86, E51, E61, E63, E65, E71, C3, C4, C5, C6, E72, E75, E79, E5, E7 etc, you will not see the word "formating", because it runs backgroundly. And after this, your S60 will now be at its original factory settings.
Note: Before you format your phone, make sure you back up all your ringtones, SMS and picture messages and most importantly your contacts to a storage device, and if you leave your memory card in your phone, it will be formatted along with your phone. You can use the Nokia PC Suite to back up your files.
2 Press Red key, select disconnect .
You can also use the following codes, (*#7370#) or (*#7780#). Once pressed, it will immediately prompt you to restart your phone. (*#7780#) is practically more compatible with S40 or Java phones.
Select ‘Yes’ and the phone will format itself. It takes about 2-3 minutes to complete this process. Also ensure that your phone is well charged before you format.
Now restore all your ringtones, videos, mp3's, messages, contacts, etc. And you once again have a fresh Symbian_OS. (OS: Operating system.
