Resetting your Nokia
The Nokia 3250 is a mobile phone that is available for purchase as an unlocked device on sites such as Amazon, but is not available for purchase from any major U.S. carrier. However, since these devices are unlocked, you may still have them activated for use on U.S. wireless carriers. If your device ever locks up, you may need to perform a soft reset. If your device ever needs to be completely wiped clean of all settings and stored information, you would need to perform a hard reset.
Instructions
Soft reset
1. Go to your "Menu" option on your Nokia 3250.
2. Select "Tools."
