How to Reset Latest Symbian Nokia N8


The Nokia N8 is now reaching the people around the globe so we will start seeing different tips and tutorials for the new Symbian ^ 3, and without doubt one of the most useful is how to hard reset the Nokia N8 as user may endup freezing or crashing the software, it is also very useful if want to sell the phone and remove the personal data.

Soft Reset :
Try the soft reset first, that will not destroy everything in your phone and may help to bring your phone back (Applicable only if your phone is in working condition, to press the keys on it) Press *#7370# for a reset a long press of the Power Button also does the soft reset on N8.

Hard Reset :
If your phone even not booting properly, no choice have to go for a hard reset .But there is an important thing you have to keep in mind before doing a hard reset of Nokia N8. The hard reset of Nokia N8 removes some software run time from your phone; due to this you cannot install some native software back in your phone.

For example If you have done a hard reset ,you will not be able to get the OVI store 2.0 back ,since it is developed using the latest QT SDK and the hard reset destroys it. If there is no other way only do a hard reset to the Nokia N8. I hope this issue will be resolved with the next firmware updates.

How to hard reset N8:
Turn off your phone
Hold “Volume Down + Camera Key + Menu Key” and press power button until your phone shake or start

Wait until screen show the Nokia logo and welcomes you back!
