It will be exactly the way it was when you bought it.

Hard Reset will take few minutes only (depending on how much files will be remove).

Just make sure you have lots of battery! Also plug in the charger on the phone just in case you run out of power. Cause the phone needs power to format, and if it loses all of it, before finishing the format process. your phone will start screwin' up! 😃 (atleast that's the way it is with the 7650, same with 3650 for sure)

😊 yes it is the same.

It happened to me once.. I reformatted the MMC (I didn't realize the battery has only 2 bars left)... 😮ops:
Luckily the 3650 is not screwed 😃 ... after turning on the phone, 1 bar left then I checked whether the MMC has been formatted .. 😞 its not or maybe incomplete... I recharged first then continue the reformat
