Tips & Warnings
As an alternative, if these options don't work, is to switch off the phone and press the Send and Call End buttons. Turn on the power button, holding it for a few seconds. Select “Format.” Select the Call Receive key.
Yet another alternative is to insert the stylus into the reset button, but don’t hold it there. When you first see the logo appear, press and hold Call and End Call for a few seconds. The format menu appears. Then press “Send” to select “Format.” Select the Call Receive key.
