Formatting methods Nokia smartphones
All responsibility lies entirely with the one who uses these codes.
Before formatting your phone try:
1) Try turning it off and on.
2) It didn’t work out, turn off your smartphone and let it lie down for about half an hour.
3) Try to turn it on without a SIM card and a memory card.
4) Turn on your phone with charging. If none of the methods helped, then try to format the smartphone with the codes listed below.
Formatting should be done only in cases where none of the ways to reanimate the smartphone peacefully works, and you see no other way out of the situation.
Most often, formatting a smartphone is performed for complete cleaning smartphone, for example when selling. Also when the phone is very buggy.
Before formatting by any of the methods below, it is RECOMMENDED to remove the memory card from the phone so as not to damage it during formatting.
Format codes
1) * # 7780 # - restore the original settings of the smartphone. , all settings will immediately become like when selling the phone. It will erase the Internet settings, the display backlight time, etc. No information will be lost.
2) * # 7370 # - reset the smart to the factory state (this will delete all downloaded applications on the phone, contacts, sms, etc. So if there is something valuable, then it's better to backup to a memory card. Also the phone will be on English language, change in settings, phone.
3) This method is needed when the second one does not change anything, and possibly does not work, or when the smartphone does not turn on at all. Press three keys at the same time "Green" (Call) + "3" + "*" and without releasing the three buttons, press the power key of the phone and wait for the screen saver with a message about formatting. The consequences of this code are similar to the consequences of the second code. Does not work on all models Nokia phones.
If the phone asks for a password to format the smartphone, then enter your password if you have changed it, or by default 12345.
Codes for Nokia phones
*#2820# is the unique Bluetooth address of your phone.
*#7370925538# - cleaning "Wallet" (for 6600 and above - which have "Wallet").
*3370# (phone must reboot) improves sound quality (using EFR) but reduces battery life.
#3370# resets the sound quality to normal (cancels *3370# code).
EFR CODEC (Enhanced Full Rate)
*4720# enable Half Rate Codec (HFR)
#4720# disable Half Rate Codec (HFR)
HR CODEC (Half Rate)
The last four codes require carrier support.
*#92702689# sign in service menu[*#war0anty#] (Not for smartphones)
#06# - IMEI smartphone (IMEI number - it is unique and every phone has it). This number must match the number on the box.
*#0000# - firmware number.
Many users of the Nokia 5230 smartphone someday face the question of how to format their phone or its internal memory. That is what will be discussed in this post.
How to format Nokia 5230 phone?
On this moment There are several types of formatting: hard reset and soft reset. The second is designed to clear the phone's memory from a variety of records, contacts, sms and more. It is carried out in case of failures in applications to restore their performance. Also, Soft Reset can be done before selling your smartphone. In order to make a Soft Reset, you need to dial the combination * # 7780 on the number keypad, or go to Menu - Options - Phone management and select Initial settings. The default password for Nokia 5230 phones is 12345.
And in the first type of formatting, Hard Reset, it resembles something like reinstalling operating system on the computer and if after it the phone did not work normally for you, software defects were not corrected, now you can safely carry it in for repair, you yourself cannot do anything. To make a Hard Reset Nokia 5230, you need to dial the combination *#7370# and then enter the password 12345 and wait for the operation to complete.
Well, if your Nokia 5230 phone has stopped turning on at all, then we hold down four keys at the same time: the call key (green), the reset key, the camera button and the phone's power button. Hold for 3-4 seconds. The process will start. We expect.
Before formatting your phone try:1) Try turning it off and on.
2) It didn’t work out, turn off your smartphone and let it lie down for about half an hour.
3) Try to turn it on without a SIM card and a memory card.
4) Turn on your phone with charging. If none of the methods helped, then try to format the smartphone with the codes listed below.
Formatting should be done only in cases where none of the ways to reanimate the smartphone peacefully works, and you see no other way out of the situation.
Most often, formatting a smartphone is performed to completely clean the smartphone, for example, when selling. Also when the phone is very buggy.
Before formatting by any of the methods below, it is RECOMMENDED to remove the memory card from the phone so as not to damage it during formatting.
Format codes:
1) *#7780# - restore the original settings of the smartphone., all settings will immediately become the same as when the phone was sold. It will erase the Internet settings, the operating time of the display backlight, etc. No information will be lost.
2) * # 7370 # - reset the smart to the factory state (this will delete all downloaded applications on the phone, contacts, sms, etc. So if there is something valuable, then it's better to backup to a memory card. Also the phone will be in English, change in settings , phone.
3) This method is needed when the second one does not change anything, and possibly does not work, or when the smartphone does not turn on at all. Press three keys at the same time "Green" (Send a call) + "3" + "*" and without releasing the three buttons, press the power key of the phone and wait for the screen saver with a message about formatting. The consequences of this code are similar to the consequences of the second code. Does not work on all Nokia phone models. If the phone asks for a password to format the smartphone, then enter your password if you have changed it, or by default 12345.
Codes for Nokia phones:
All codes are simply typed on the phone keypad. There is no need to press anything after that. Codes are (mostly) safe, with the exception of, for example, those that are designed to check for security.
*#0000# - determining the version and date of the firmware as well as the factory name of the model - the most popular command. Older models use the model number instead of 0000.
*#06# - serial number, which is also IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity).
*#2820# is the unique Bluetooth address of your phone.
*#7780# - restores factory settings.
*3370#, cancel #3370# - EFR(Enhanced Full Rate) - a system for improved communication quality in GSM phones due to faster battery discharge (about 5%). EFR uses advanced coding to improve sound quality without expanding the bandwidth.
*4720# , Cancel #4720# - HRM(Half Rate Modulation) - prolongs battery life by about 30%, by reducing the frequency band by about half.
*#7370925538# - cleaning "Wallet" (for 6600 and above - which have "Wallet").
*#war0anty# (*#92702689#) - useful service information: date of manufacture, serial number, date of purchase (can be changed only once), whether there was an official repair and when, a non-resettable call timer. To exit this menu, turn the phone off and on again.
*#sim0clock# (*#746025625#) - will tell you if it supports SIM card power saving mode is a useless command. Contrary to rumors, nothing changes.
Codes for determining whether the phone is locked or not A Nokia phone can be blocked by 4 types of locks:
SPROVIDER-LOCK - 1
NETWORK-LOCK-2
COUNTRY-LOCK - 3
SIMCARD-LOCK - 4
To check the status of these locks, enter the line:
#pw+(MASTERCODE)+(y)# where
- p = press * 3 times
- w = press * 4 times
- + = press * 2 times
- MASTERCODE = the code that locked your device. To check the status, enter 1234567890
- y = number from 1 to 4 - corresponds to the type of the lock. Example: #pw+1234567890+1# - phone should give info about SPLOCK status. Do not use given code more than three times!
How to enable hidden menu?
Depending on the phone model, the hidden menu can be activated in one of three ways:
using a cable and special software;
using a special code typed on the phone keypad;
by installing a new "firmware" of the phone - in this case, the hidden menu appears automatically.
What phones have a service menu?
The service menu is available in many phones, but it is best studied and described in GSM phones:
Nokia: 51XX, 61XX, 71XX, 82XX, 62XX, 32XX, 33XX;
Who can benefit from the service menu?
In window 65 of the Netmonitor menu in NOKIA, you can see the number of SMS received and sent by you.
Of interest are such parameters as the distance to the nearest base station, current consumption of the phone in different modes, call quality, phone output power and BTS TEST option.
The BTS TEST option (17th menu item) enables the Netmonitor feature in Nokia phones. It allows you to "bind" a mobile phone to one specific frequency of the base station. In this case, the phone does not make a hand ouver (transition from cell to cell), but operates on one cell (more precisely, frequency) until the signal level is sufficient for communication.
How to activate BTS TEST?
In order to activate the BTS TEST function, write “BTS TEST” in the 33rd memory cell of the SIM card notebook, and indicate the frequency in the 001 format instead of the phone number (if, for example, frequency 1 is used). This can be done using the SIM-writer or the Wintesla program, PC Locals. A simple user can do this with a phone that allows you to show and edit the cell number (for example, with the Sagem 922); another option is also possible. So, if you type, for example, 1# on the keyboard of a Nokia phone, you can see the phone number located in the 1st cell of the SIM card; accordingly, by pressing 33#, you will see an entry, instead of which you need to dial "BTS TEST". To enable this function, go to the 17th menu item (there you will see the inscription “BTS TEST OFF”), then return to Netmonitor, type “17” in the window (without pressing the “OK” button) and turn off the phone with the power off button. Turning on the phone, you will see the inscription "BTS TEST ON" - from this moment the phone works on the frequency you specified. In order to disable the function, you must do the same. And to change the frequency, change the frequency number in the notebook.
Why is this needed?
First, to check the gain of the antenna. Suppose you want to check an external antenna, and the phone changes frequencies - naturally, the signal level from different frequencies also changes. By turning on BTS TEST, you will get rid of this problem and will be able to really see the difference between the standard and external antennas.
Secondly, outside the city or in open areas, a situation may arise when the signal level is good, but the communication quality is poor (the sound is interrupted, distorted). The reason is simple - interference from base stations: when the same or neighboring frequency with approximately the same level “comes” from two stations, they “clog each other”. If this happens, instead of the frequency with interference, you can select the 2nd or 3rd frequency by signal strength (3rd Netmonitor window).
Net Monitor is a separate menu item in Nokia phones. In devices going on sale, this menu item is hidden. You can turn it on using a cable for communication with a computer and a program like Logomanager. If you think that your Nokia phone is not connected to a computer, you are wrong. All modern devices have service connectors, but on some models they are hidden under the back cover or battery.
In the sections of this menu, you can find out the current range in which the device operates, the distance to the base station that currently serves your device, the numbers of several neighboring frequency channels into which a transition (handover) is possible, the state and mode of the last battery charge. Also, using NetMonitor, you can get some more information: reception level (not in "sticks", but in dBm) and reception levels adjacent channels to which the device can switch, See what power the device’s transmitter is operating at (during connection) (which is closer to the base station, the less power and the longer the battery lasts.) View the number and LAC of this station and neighboring stations (if the room is in different BSs with different LACs are better received in corners, it is better not to walk with the device from corner to corner, as it will re-register in the network every time and this will noticeably affect the battery condition).
And if you have any complaints about the quality of communication with the operator, you will be able to explain the problem of BS No. ... more qualified, on channel No. ... I can’t get through / SMS do not pass, etc. And the problem will be solved for you faster and you will bring a surprise to the technical service with your knowledge.
Any side effects in the operation of the device after activation NetMonitor menu, like a faster battery discharge, there is no deterioration in the sensitivity or audibility in the dynamics, since the program itself is already working in the device, but does not display anything on the screen.
You don't have to worry about warranty issues either. NetMonitor can always be turned off, and no service will know that it has been turned on, unless, of course, the pins of the service connector are badly scratched when using a homemade connector.
To get rid of the NetMonitor menu item, you just need to enter the code 241 or 497 in the "Test" field.

Later installation in Nokia phone new card memory needs to be formatted. A computer cannot be used for this. This is due to the fact that at the same time as formatting, the phone creates a set of system folders on the card.
Instruction
1. If the card you decide to install in your phone is not new, transfer the data you need from it to your computer. Use a card reader for this. At the end of the work, do not forget to positively disable the card using the operating system installed on the computer. Only then remove it from the card reader.
2. If you are not sure that the memory card does not contain bad blocks, perform it in advance full formatting on the computer. Only later install it in the phone. Remember that after this you still have to format it additionally with a phone so that it turns out to be mechanically made on it. desired folders. On Linux, format with the card unmounted with the umount command, but not ejected with the eject command, with the command: mkfs.vfat -c -F 32 /dev/sda1
3. After that, install the card in the phone. The unit of the outdated model will have to be turned off for this. The same should be done with a modern phone, if the card slot in it is located under the battery.
4. Turn on your phone if you turned it off before. Wait for the download. After that, press the key prepared to call the menu.
5. Find the file manager in the phone menu. It can be placed in different ways. For example, in the "Tools" folder or in the "Applications" folder - "Organizer".
6. Select the memory card in the file manager. Go to it.
7. Call the file manager menu and select "Memory card functions" - "Format".
8. Answer correctly a series of questions. Select the desired disc label.
9. Wait for formatting to finish. Later, install the desired set of applications on the memory card, place other files on it that you want to view or listen to using your phone. Use a data cable, card reader, Bluetooth for this, and with unlimited access, download them from the Internet. Do not infringe copyright in doing so. Remember that in phone the memory card also requires disconnection before removing.
Today imagine every person without cell phone hefty difficult. Many modern phone manufacturers offer a small flash drive card in the kit. When hit on flash drive viruses it needs formatting.

- - computer
- – card reader
- - computer connection cable
Instruction
1. There are several methods for formatting. It's easier for everyone to format a USB flash drive in your phone through the interface of the operating system (program) of your phone. Most phones for a flash card have a separate menu and there is a menu item “Format card”. In some phone models, you need to find the “Memory” section, and in the settings of this section you will be able to find the secret “Format” item.
2. Occasionally, formatting by this method does not work, and here a computer will come to the rescue. You need to connect the phone to the computer using the USB cable that comes with the kit. When connecting (pairing) devices, a flash card of our phone will be displayed on the computer as a separate disk. Click on it in explorer right click mouse, select "Format". It is also allowed to delete all data from a flash drive without formatting, provided that all hidden files on it will be displayed.
3. It is allowed to use another method - formatting with card reader support. The sense is primitive: you need to remove the flash drive from the phone and insert it into the card reader (depending on the format of the flash drive), or use an adapter, the one that most often comes with a flash card in the kit. In many laptops, the card reader is already built into the case, while for a computer you will have to purchase one.
Note!
If it is unrealistic to format the flash card on the phone and on the computer, therefore, the reason may be a malfunction of the card itself.
Helpful advice
