Your manual should tell you how to do a Hard Reset of the device.

Turn on the device, press the outer most left and right hardware
buttons and then put the stylus in the reset hole and hold it there
until the screen fades out. Then plug the device in and press the
reset button. This will totally wipe the device and it will be in out
of the box condition. All data and installed apps will be gone.

This is a extreme step - remember everything will be erased, except the SD
card (if you use one).

You can hard reset your h3970 by pressing the Reset button and at same time
turning it on. This will erase everything and make it like new. You have to
reinstall everything again.
