Resetting the phone

You can reset your phone to its original settings. When you perform a factory data reset, you reset the phone to the state it was in before you turned it on for the first time, and all personal data is erased. You can also reset the phone to the original settings without erasing your personal data. Before you perform a reset, make sure to back up any important data saved on your phone.
