hey tell first if whats the model of your phone..
if its a nokia model then thats easy, if you had software
for colored phones then just restore full factory setings,
it can be done with sofwares like powerflasher,twister,
tornado etc...if its wd2 type just click format user area..

now hope this one answers ur prob. man

regards....!

theres a format menu in ur phone,go to extras then find the icon name memory, select it and in the option menu find "format memory card" and select..then it's done...juz remember that when you format your memo. all the data in there will be lost...!
