hello friend you cannot format ur nokia 5200 by urself it requires authorisation from Nokia.you can only reset it to its original factory settings or only can format its memory card.
Pls rush to ur nearest nokia care and they will do it for u.
even if it is in warranty then it will be done without any cost
Your Nokia 5200 is a Symbian S40 not S60 so *#7370# won't apply to you.
Soft Reset: *#7780#, 12345 (Nokia default unless changed by you) and then Yes. (Also works on Nokia S40 phones as a full reset)
So try the 7780 combination and see if that works - if not you will most likely have to go to your network providers shop ( orange, 02 or whoever you have the phone with ) and get them to reset it.
If its just the memory card - if you have the correct memory card reader then you can format that but obviously you may have photos and other stuff on just the memory card - but that memory card will most likely not contain anything to reset your password etc
Here’s how to hard reset or format your Nokia mobile phone: 1) Switch off your phone 2) Press and hold these 3 keys together: -green dial key -the star key(*) -the number 3 key (Ugh, I wish I had three hands…!!) 3) Power on the phone
Warning: Do not release the keys until you see a formatting screen and even after the phone has started. Wait until the initial sound starts to play and the hand animation is displayed.
Hi alimchiken,
To format your nokia 5200 use the following Soft Reset: *#7780#, 12345 (Nokia default unless changed by you) and then Yes. (Also works on Nokia S40 phones as a full reset).
Connect your phone to a computer using the USB cable. The phone memory and the Memory card will be shown as 2 seperate drives in my computer. Right-click on the phone and click format.. PS:Format using FAT32 as it is more reliable.
