How to Hard Reset — ZTE Orbit
The ZTE Orbit is a 2012 Microsoft Windows Phone 7.5 Tango II device with 512MB and 4GB internal storage. It features a 4.0", TFT, 480.0x800.0 display and is available in Black.
The Orbit is equipped with a Removable Li-Ion 1600 mAh battery, a 5 MP, 720p@30fps main camera. The device uses a Mini-SIM configuration. It weighs 136.4 g.
Hard Reset on the ZTE Orbit 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.
Windows Phone devices generally don't have a hardware button combination that wipes data the way Android's Recovery Mode does
The closest equivalent is the in-menu Factory Reset described in the Factory Reset guide below
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
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
