How can I reinstall software on my Nokia phone Series 40 Asha Nokia Belle
How can I reinstall software on my Nokia phone Series 40 Asha Nokia Belle
The Software Recovery Tool can help you to reset and recover your phone software at home, if your phone is not responding, frozen, experiencing software related or software update problems.
- Important! Using the Software Recovery Tool will erase all content stored on your phone, including apps and games (along with app data and game progress), text messages, call history, music, photos and more. If possible, you should back up your phone first (Settings > backup). You will be able to restore a backup once the recovery is complete.
- Note: The recovery process may take some time depending on your internet connection speed, and you cannot use your phone during the installation. The latest approved version of the software in your phone and model will be installed.
Prerequisites for your computer (PC):
- Microsoft Windows 7 or newer.
- USB cable to connect your phone to the computer.
- Minimum 4 GB free storage space.
Which tool should I use?
Use the Windows Device Recovery Tool for the HTC One, HTC 8X, LG Lancet phones and all Lumia phones running Windows Phone 8.0/8.1 or Windows 10. For all other Nokia branded phones use the Nokia Software Recovery Tool. To see which Windows Phone operating system (OS) version is currently installed on your phone, go to Settings > about.
