How to Hard Reset — Ericsson GA 318

⏱ ~5 min📋 3 steps

The Ericsson GA 318 is a 1995 device. It features a Alphanumeric display and is available in 3.

The GA 318 is equipped with a Removable NiMH 1200 mAh battery. The device uses a Mini-SIM configuration. It weighs 248 g.

Hard Reset on the Ericsson GA 318 works differently than it does on Android, since this phone uses its own menus and terminology. Follow the steps below, written specifically for this device rather than adapted from Android instructions.

💡

On this device this is just a forced restart/power-cycle — it does not erase data by itself. See Factory Reset for the data-erasing option.

1

Ericsson GA 318 is a basic phone, not a smartphone — it has no hardware button combination or recovery partition that wipes data, unlike Android or iPhone

2

The only way to erase its data is the in-menu Factory Reset — see that guide below

3

If it's completely frozen, remove the battery for 30 seconds (if removable) to force a restart, then try the Factory Reset menu
