Nokia C100 Hard Reset why you can't do it?

[@bsmy84]

This is really a damn shame. I bought this phone to use temporarily while having my high-end smartphone repaired. At the time I bought this temporary phone (for $50 at Best Buy), I assumed I could wipe it clean and sell it or give it to someone else once I had my original smartphone back. As this guy says, the way this phone is programmed makes no sense. This situation unfortunately makes this phone useless or as some techs say, makes it a "brick."

[@CDay-xf3us]

Basically. Got one amber alert next I know I can't get in. Should sue the store I bought at or the company Verizon. Apps in background running etc 🎟️

[@p1nesap]

Doesn't work either on C200. So I used Settings < System < Reset and my phone is still buggy, missing wallpapers, different system colors. Something's not right.

[@JustinRK81]

I totally agree with this guy very interesting video I got the exact same phone have the exact same problem Nokia needs to fix this bullshit make it much more easy to fast load and reboot clear all data factory reset

[@joyzilla4638]

You can go to settings and they totally give you a factory reset option. I just used it. How this helped.

[@Whittle.In.Wonder]

​@@joyzilla4638this video is showing how to do the hard reset with button commands as a result of a lost screen password or lockout. Your solution is not possible under those circumstances.

[@variobro5922]

That sucks. As for Nokia, they are high fiving in the background watching this video. They went from being one ☝️ of the top dogs in the business to making $40 smart phones. They will do whatever it takes to make sure no one messes with their bottom line.

[@Dave-gn9gf]

Thank you for at least doing a video showing you can't hard reset the c100

[@corissamathison2784]

Is there possibly a reset button key hole in the device possibly itself near the battery anywhere maybe if you trigger that maybe it will factory reset. If there is one.

[@CDay-xf3us]

My Nokia won't. Someone or something changed pin on it an won't let me reset it back norm. Any tips

[@michaelmaxwell8229]

actually u can hard reset the nokia c100 all you have to do is go into fastboot then connect to a computer and go to cmd through android studio platform tools and give the commands first fastboot devices to make sure ur pc recognizes the device then after that 2nd command is fastboot reboot recovery and it will reboot the device into the recovery menu then just wipe factory data device just figured this out messing around with fastboot commands. Warning if done this way be prepared to do a frp bypass on the device

[@unlock_don3573]

thanks it worked

[@darleneeastman53]

Can someone please help me with this? I downloaded the cmd studio platform tools. Trying to factory data reset this stupid nokia.

[@flockaflocka6151]

How to fix unknown error?

[@Anotheridi0]

The only problem is that you would of needed to enabled USB debugging on the phone before you do this

[@andrewosullivan8992]

I was able to do this using the Google Pixel fastboot drivers.

[@kevinsumney2881]

Is it possible to tether another android with a software refresh

[@maylashapatriciacarlsyn2361]

Thank you. He is correct.😊

[@ahuman-t4y]

You can go to the bootloader by pressing vol up+ vol down + power button+ charger in the phone after turning of the phone that works for me so yea

[@jodyjohnson265]

so the Nokia c100 is root proofed?

[@bigt9049]

I managed to get back into my phone without use of pc or apps of any kind first thing I did was make sure phone was powered fully off I did this by removing the battery and reinstalled the battery once completely off I long press and hold power button and volume down until fastboot mode appeared then left it sit on that screen for 10 minutes then long press and hold power button and volume up button until eventually it booted up and worked fine but I am having a charging issue which is what caused it to end up in fastboot mode as I was trying to get it to charge which failed but I was able to get back into the phone I’ve tried multiple different chargers outlets ect thought maybe water possibly got into charge port so dried the phone out in hopes that works I’ll update you guys on if I’m successful thankfully I was able to get out of the fastboot mode without the use of a computer I did try installing android studio tools tried to run skd wasn’t able to figure it out I got impatient but thankfully I was able to somehow bypass all that by tricking the phone

[@bsmy84]

I'm having a hard time following you. How about reviewing what you wrote and trying to make it a bit simpler and/or clearer?

[@scottnunan4927]

Getting "out" of fast boot isn't the problem. All you have to do for that is press the power button lol. You literally just had to turn your phone on lol The problem is being able to do a factory reset from a locked screen.

[@ericaroberts5829]

​@@scottnunan4927getting out of that mode IS MY problem. The power key does NOT get me out of it.

[@ericaroberts5829]

Thanks for this I'm going to try this.

[@Avalanche_Ride_92]

I am having the same issues here and I just got the phone not even a week ago to use for MP3 player only and its pissed me off Any advice would be great!! 😡

[@zachperkins6019]

When is powering on push up and down up and down until it fully comes on

[@AbdullahSaleh-ck9fr]

[@Raul-bh6ly]

I have both the Nokia C100 and TCL A3 on simple mobile and omg they are garbage my old LG Journey LTE and Motorola E5 are way better even my Samsung Galaxy A03 problem about those phones are they are old not enough memory for apps so I need to get stuck with the Nokia c100 is the better new even if it gets scratched easily even if you put a screen protector or a case the screen on the back of the back camera it will get scratches this phone is not durable the front screen also scratched and I'm always careful with my phones I never drop them or put them in my pocket with keys I have no idea how the scratches appear on the phone the TCl A3 is way more durable but it turns of by itself the Nokia also turns off apps crash I say save up your money and get a Samsung Galaxy phone or Motorola they are way durable and won't have much issues with the phone I'm going back to my old LG Journey LTE because the crashing apps and the phone being scratched out of nowhere not acceptable I just bought the phone 3 weeks ago I don't recommend the Nokia C100 or The TCl A3 both garbage if you don't care about the phone being scratched or apps crashing and turning off by itself the phone is for you but if you want decent performance go with a decent Samsung Galaxy phone or Motorola phone they are good decent get the ones with 32 to 64 Gbs of memory with 3Gb of ram that's decent not good enough but decent just don't download much apps

[@AshKoten-pb6pw]

I don't have software so I guess I'm gonna live without a phone

They won't tell me the swipe code to get back in. Who I go to. Or sue Verizon! Because it using data I can't even use that why

[@crystalrull3136]

Thank you. You have explained how to enter and exit (FAST BOOT MODE). I have read and watched other videos with no luck. I watched your video within 1 minute problem solved. Highly recommend your KZbin channel.

My phone is frozen touch screen wont wirk

Mine is too and it does this all the time

[@emmcellbuscandosoluciones8427]

colocarlo en modo fastboot Ocupar el programa unlock tool seleccionar la pestaña reboot recovery hard reset listo.

[@SN44591]

You go into settings, click on system and go down to reset options and than you click on Erase All Data (factory reset)

[@EtherealRealm]

thats when you can access the phone. for those who forgotten the password, they are locked out permanently

[@tamimislamshovon]

thanks bro

[@RedhawkHaven]

Reset Factory Settings From the main screen, slide the screen up to display your apps. Locate and tap the "Settings" icon. Locate and tap "System." Tap "Reset options." Tap "Erase all data (factory reset)." A message will appear with a description of the data that will be erased. ... A warning message will appear.

[@bsmy84]

This worked per your steps, but this is a Tracfone C100. So, once all data was wiped it restarted with the Android image followed by the Tracfone screen. I'm assuming that makes this C100 only useable with the Tracfone provider, yes?

[@Whittle.In.Wonder]

Okay, that's cool and all, but what about how to do that with the phone locked? That's the problem I am having. It just goes to fastboot menu, and I don't have a computer I can use for it.

[@k.m.h7480]

[@occultnaga]

Yeah right

[@Emmie-kf7he]

Well I can't do it

[@bullfrogdaddy]

If your phone is turned on, turn it off. Hold down the Power button and the Volume Down key Instead of a regular loading screen you’ll see a menu where navigation is performed using the volume keys (to move the cursor) and the Power button (to select). Select “Wipe data/factory reset” via the Power button.

[@ericaroberts5829]

We're literally just trying to fix our phones bro

[@keyerajohnson7175]

I had the same problem. Phone was frozen on boot load screen. The only options I had was start, reboot bootloader, and power off. So what I did was change the SIM card or take the current one out. Waited until the phone completely died. Connect it to a charger and while the phone is still turned off hold the volume up and power button. I was able to do a hard reset this way. Let me know if this works for anyone :)

[@Nunya58294]

Another way to do this without recovery mode... *fastboot -w*
