I9100 Hard Reset
Bette Keesee
My S2 froze, I took out the battery and restarted it but it kept freezing on the pin screen. I have tried both soft and hard resets but still cannot get the phone to work. When performing the hard reset, I am able to reset it, but on rebooting it freezes on the 'installing applications' screen.

Hi,
Please scroll through your devices settings to look for the factory reset or hard reset option. Please be aware that this option will clear the data from your phone, so you might want to back the data up prior to the reset if you haven't done this already. Otherwise, you would need to visit cell phone provider store to assist in this if you don't have the manual.
Thank you.
