Restoring factory settings to my samsung u700

Hi, I've been trying desperately to restore factory settings on my samsung u700v, which is locked on vodafone firmware. My problem is the phone automatically saves the top three numbers you text on the phone, and suggests those numbers when you're trying to send a message. I want to pass on this phone and I don't want the new user to have access to these numbers, I checked if those numbers were still there when I put another sim card in, and they were. So am i right in thinking if i reset the phone, those numbers will disappear. The only information i've been able to get is to flash my phone with some samsung software, but i have no idea how I would do that without melting the phone. Thanks very much for your help.

Hi,

I TOO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE ONE BELOW. ANY SOLUTIONS?

I've been trying desperately to restore factory settings on my samsung u700v, which is locked on vodafone firmware.

My problem is the phone automatically saves the top three numbers you text on the phone, and suggests those numbers when you're trying to send a message.

I want to pass on this phone and I don't want the new user to have access to these numbers, I checked if those numbers were still there when I put another sim card in, and they were. So am i right in thinking if i reset the phone, those numbers will disappear.

The only information i've been able to get is to flash my phone with some samsung software, but i have no idea how I would do that without melting the phone.

Thanks very much for your help.

Please help me about samsung sgh-u700v

i followed the steps from this LINKand i was able to install games and other applications in my u700 phone. and i swear they're all working fine.
do take note that you have to have BOTH the jar and jad file of the game/app you want to install. if you only have the jad file, just try to install a jar maker OR if you only have a jar file, then try to install jad maker.. good luck! :)
