Deleting cell phone records is easy to accomplish.
If you want to sell, upgrade or clean up the memory on your cell phone, you will need to delete cell phone records from your device. Cell phones are designed to retain personal data, such as messages, contacts, and media on the device itself or the SIM card. If you want to restore your device to its factory settings, you will need to perform a hard reset. A hard reset will delete all of your cell phone records. Alternatively, if you only want to free up memory on your device, then you can individually select which cell phone records you want to delete.
