Reset the phone

IMPORTANT! Resetting the phone means that most of the information in it is lost, such as downloaded and installed apps, accounts, system and application data, and settings. Be sure to back up all data and files you want to keep before performing the restore. A backup is an extra set of all information. Carefully read the entire text below before starting. The reason for making a reset may be a stubborn problem that cannot be solved or if you want to give the phone to someone else.

Note! Everything you have added to the phone since you received it will be deleted!

Exception

• Everything that has been saved on an SD card, if one has been installed (see Insert SIM card and memory card).

• Apps and data from Google ™ - if backup is enabled.

• Information you have stored in some kind of cloud storage.

IMPORTANT! Remember which Google account you last logged in to with your phone. Google Anti-Theft requires that you enter the Google Account you last logged in to with your phone before a reset. The phone does not start until you have verified that you really are you.

Reset the phone

1. From the Home screen, touch Set Advanced System Settings Advanced Reset Options:

2. Reset Wi-Fi, mobile data, and Bluetooth to reset all network settings, including for wireless networking, mobile data, and Bluetooth. Read all the information on the screen carefully, it is very important!

3. Reset the settings to reset the app settings for:

• Disabled apps.

• Disabled app notifications.

• Standard apps for different actions.

• Restrictions for apps to use data in the background.

• Any access restrictions.

You will not lose any app data or the app itself, only any settings for the app.

• Your Google Account.

• Data and settings for systems and apps.

What should I do next when the SD card is inserted for the first time and an icon appears in the upper right corner and a message is displayed?

Click on the message and the option to format the card is displayed.

Two options will be presented:

Telephone storage

Portable storage

What is the difference between them?

Phone storage: The SD card will be used for all types of files and expands the internal memory.

As a consequence:

The SD card will not be displayed as an option to choose from when taking pictures as it is considered an extension of the internal memory

The SD card cannot be used in any other device unless it is formatted again.

Portable storage: The SD card will appear as an option for storing media files (for example, when taking pictures). After the user presses the option, the phone continues to format the SD card accordingly. Depending on the specifications of the memory card, the smartphone will send a warning about its speed.

2G and 3G Network phase out. Why is my phone not connecting to my network provider?

The mobile network's second generation (2G) is 25 years old.

Several countries, including Australia, have already switched off their 2G networks to promote the expansion of the 4G and 5G.

Certain network providers  have preferred to keep their 2G network and shutdown their 3G antennnas instead.

Please beware that a network provider's decision to phase out either their 2G or 3G network affects the MVNOs that use their infrastructure.

External display will not light up when volume buttons are pressed. How do I activate it again?

Pressing the volume keys to activate the external display does not work after charging the phone. Restart the phone and it will work again. This also happens if you turn on your phone after it has been switched off and then fold up the phone while it is still starting up (which is natural because it takes some time to turn on) - this also requires a restart to get this in order.

Should it take so long when you press the volume buttons before the clock appears in the front display?

What happens if an answering machine picks up the assistance call?

If your device supports "confirm with 0", the person receiving your emergency call must confirm that he or she is not an answering machine by pressing the number "0" within the first minute of the call.

If this is not done, the call will end and the next person in your emergency call list will be called.

However, if your device does not support "confirm with 0", there is no way to determine if the person answering the call is a human or an answering machine and therefore it may stop the next person in your emergency call list from being called.

How can I reduce the number of unwanted calls from salespeople and market research?

The best way to reduce nuisance calls is to register for free with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). They'll add you to their list of numbers that don't want to receive sales and marketing calls. It's against the law for sales people from the UK or overseas to call numbers registered with TPS. You can register on their webpage : here

Why does Doro not include headphones and a manual in the package?

Doro wants to minimize the impact that our products have on the environment, so it does not come with headphones and a manual in the packaging.

We want to help our users make sustainable choices in their daily lives to promote better recycling habits.

Doro believes that the problem of e-waste and unnecessary duplication of these items can be highlighted by removing headphones and manuals from the device's packaging.

Existing Doro users are encouraged to continue using their current headphones and the manual is available to read or download on our online support page.

If you want to order a hard copy of your product manual, contact our support.
