How to Hard Reset — Nokia 703

⏱ ~5 min📋 4 steps

The Nokia 703 is Microsoft Windows Phone 7 device with 512MB and 8GB internal storage. It features a 3.7", LED-backlit IPS LCD, 480.0x800.0 display and is available in Black.

The 703 is equipped with a Removable Li-Ion battery, a 5 MP, 720p@30fps main camera. The device uses a Mini-SIM configuration. It weighs 114 g.

Hard Reset on the Nokia 703 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

Windows Phone 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
