hello, basically i tried to unblock my viewty and computer shut down so lost all backup files at first only the imei number had changed but now the phone is just displaying ''invalid usim'' and will only allow me to emergency calls. i took it to shop to have a look and they could not do anything with it but they were far from convincing, so as i have nothing to lose i thought i might have a go my self if its at all possible.

so what i need to know is if there is any way to get the phone back to the original factory state even if it is still locked to a network, i don't want to spend any money on at as i was going to sell it on as i have upgraded. if anyone can help please let me know id be most great full.
