*#7370# is the format code, next time Please use the use function for that and not waste posts, THanks and welcome to the forums

You mean the "search" function, right?

Another little piece of information for the newbie.. while formatting your phone make sure your battery is charged or the phone is on a UPS (uninteruptible power supply), and don't disturb the formating process, it's normal for the phone to appear as if it's hung, but it's actually reinstalling the system, so don't interupt it...
Cheers

How would you describe the *#7370# process from the Green, *, 3?

THey both "formatting" but what's the difference?

Justify your answer ...

to do a clean install follow the following steps. I did mine last night cos it wouldnt let me load *.jar files, reformatted and now i can install them ok.

Press the green dial key, *-key and 3 and then start the phone.
Don't let go of the buttons until it says "Formatting".
You will lose everything you have put in C:,
but hopefully it will help.
