Hard reset Nokia С5

Software malfunction is the general problem that causes the hanging of the Nokia c5 phones. It is difficult to identify the exact cause of the malfunction unless the user is an expert in phone technology.

Phone experts warn that if the problem persists, the user should not hurriedly rush to the phone shop to buy another phone. The problem can be solved by hard resetting the phone.

Experts argue that hard reset is the best method of solving a software problem with your Nokia c5 phone. However, hard resetting erases all the data stored in the phone including the settings, video clips, mp3s, pdf document, and word document permanently. This is because hard resetting the phone restores all the factory settings.

For safety purposes, the users should take care of data stored in their c5 handsets. The primary and the cheapest precaution to secure your data when performing Nokia c5 hard reset is backing up the data in other media. The safest media to save the Nokia c5 data is external memory. This helps the user avoid losing valuable data stored in the handset. Another backing up media include:

• Saving documents as attachments in the email accounts
• Saving video clips and mp3s in the Dropbox online accounts
• Saving clips on external hard drives for instance in the computer hard disk or an external disk.
• Saving files in the flash disks
• It is also advisable to delete unwanted or expired information from your c5 Nokia phone to safe memory requirements.

Once backing up is successful, the user can perform the hard reset process:
