⏱ ~5 min📋 5 steps

The Motorola W231 is a 2008 device and 1MB internal storage. It features a 1.6", CSTN, 65K colors, 128.0x128.0 display and is available in Red.

The W231 is equipped with a Removable Li-Ion battery. The device uses a Mini-SIM configuration. It weighs 85 g.

Factory Reset on the Motorola W231 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.

All personal data, accounts, and apps will be permanently removed.

1

Open the Menu or Settings on the phone

2

Look for 'Restore Factory Settings', 'Master Reset', or 'Reset Phone' (naming varies by manufacturer)

3

Enter the security code if asked — the factory default is commonly 0000 or 1234 if you never changed it

4

Confirm to erase all data and restore original settings

5

The phone restarts automatically once finished
