How to Hard Reset — Nokia 123 Shield
The Nokia 123 Shield is a 2026 device powered by the Unisoc SC6531E. It features a TFT display and is available in Green, Purple.
The 123 Shield is equipped with a 1750 mAh, removable, a No main camera. The device uses a Dual SIM (Mini-SIM, dual stand-by) configuration.
Hard Reset on the Nokia 123 Shield 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 123 Shield 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
