How to Hard Reset — Philips F718
The Philips F718 is a 2010 device and 45MB internal storage. It features a 2.6", TFT resistive touchscreen, 256K colors, 240.0x320.0 display and is available in Gray.
The F718 is equipped with a Removable Li-Ion 800 mAh battery, a 5 MP, 480p@30fps main camera. The device uses a Mini-SIM configuration. It weighs 138 g.
Hard Reset on the Philips F718 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.
Philips F718 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
