Hard Reset Warning

Any one who has a Nokia handset and is trying to do a hard reset (*#7370#) please be aware that this will also delete the pre-installed applications on your phone.
I realised today that I have lost the SMS Scheduler, Oxford dictionary, and even N-gage games. I'm feeling a bit sad 'cos I don't know if I can get these applications back.
The lesson I've learn't is you should try the hard reset only after you back up any pre-installed application you want to continue using.
You've been warned.

  3. Does the above reset code work for Symbian S40 as well? I need to reset my old Nokia 6080 classic.

  4. It probably wouldn't.
    check this for more info.
    P.S. S40 isn't from Symbian.
