⏱ ~5 min📋 4 steps

The Motorola A1010 is a 2005 Symbian 7.0, UIQ v2.1 UI device powered by the TI OMAP 1510 and 48MB internal storage. It features a 2.9", TFT resistive touchscreen, 256K colors, 208.0x320.0 display.

The A1010 is equipped with a Removable Li-Ion battery, a 2 MP, Yes main camera. The device uses a Mini-SIM configuration. It weighs 160 g.

Hard Reset on the Motorola A1010 works differently than it does on Android, since this platform 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

Symbian devices generally don't have a hardware button combination that wipes data the way Android's Recovery Mode does

2

The closest equivalent is the in-menu Factory Reset described in the Factory Reset guide below

3

If the device is completely frozen and won't respond to the Factory Reset menu, remove the battery for 30 seconds (if removable) to force a restart, then try again

4

Exact steps vary by exact model and firmware version — check the printed manual or the manufacturer's support site if these don't match your device
