How to Hard Reset — Samsung P960

⏱ ~5 min📋 3 steps

The Samsung P960 is a 2008 device and 90MB internal storage. It features a 2.6", TFT, 256K colors, 240.0x320.0 display and is available in Onyx Black.

The P960 is equipped with a Removable Li-Ion 1200 mAh battery, a 15 MP, Yes main camera. The device uses a Mini-SIM configuration.

Hard Reset on the Samsung P960 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.

1

Samsung P960 is a basic phone, not a smartphone — it has no hardware button combination or recovery partition that wipes data, unlike Android or iPhone

2

The only way to erase its data is the in-menu Factory Reset — see that guide below

3

If it's completely frozen, remove the battery for 30 seconds (if removable) to force a restart, then try the Factory Reset menu
