Just key in *#7370#. Then it will ask U for the password. Original password is 12345. (Security password before U change). After that the phone will restart and wait about 1 minutes, all back to the Original setting.
WARNING before U do it, make sure U backup all DATA, It will erase all even your contact,photos, additional application, etc.
1 more thing make sure your battery got at least 50% power.
Hope this 1 can help U.

*#7370# not working in 6600 format.
Press and hold dial key, * Star key,number 3 key on
keypad and then press the power on/off to swtich on the 6600 phone. Remember, do not let go the 3 press and hold keys until you see a formatting word screen show!
