n73 - quick help plz

i have a serious problem. i tryed to change housing on my n73 me,and all of the sudden my keypad stops working properly (menu,`c`,`0`,pads wont work!).i have another n73 and i treyd to swap keypads,and that one works on other one.so,both of them work fine.I came to the conclusion that software is making problem. i wanted to format n73 me,but i was disabled to do that.as i was saying,`0` pad doesnt work,so i cant type *#7370#. i tryed `*`,`3`,green key,but it just restarted.my last option is to use pc suit.i updated software version,just now as i wrote,and nothing. it wont work againa! i know that hard reset will do the trick,but i dont know how to preform it! some one plz help!

You did keep "*" "3" and green key depressed continually whilst powering up until Nokia "Shaking Hands" logo appeared?

If I've helped in any way, a click upon the white star at bottom right of screen would always be appreciated.

yes,i preformed that,but i thought it should show some message about restarting/formating it.. after it,it just show to chose country and set time/date.like "*#7780#" regular restart.i thout that combination provide hard restart. is there any other way to preform hard?using my comp.?
thx for rply
edit: i know,when use *#7370# it ask you for a code (12345)

There is no message as no lock code needs to be inputted and fact that you get choose region screen is message of success. Are you saying that all data has not been erased as device should be in "Out of box" state now?
