How to Hard Reset — Nokia 106
The Nokia 106 is a 2013 device. It features a 1.8", TFT, 65K colors, 128.0x160.0 display and is available in Black, White, Red.
The 106 is equipped with a Li-Ion 800 mAh, removable (BL-5CB). The device uses a Mini-SIM configuration. It weighs 74.2 g.
Hard Reset on the Nokia 106 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.
Nokia 106 is a basic phone, not a smartphone — it has no hardware button combination or recovery partition that wipes data, unlike Android or iPhone
The only way to erase its data is the in-menu Factory Reset — see that guide below
If it's completely frozen, remove the battery for 30 seconds (if removable) to force a restart, then try the Factory Reset menu
