Would A Hard Reset Delete Settings To Cricket?

Okay, so what I was wondering is would a hard reset delete the settings? Since I had my Imagio flashed to cricket from the cricket store...
Please help,
thanks....
A hard reset deletes EVERYTHING and restores your phone to factory settings. So, if your phone was not originally on Cricket's network, then those settings will be deleted.

.....a soft reset is powering your phone off, then powering it back on.
..a hard reset is wiping EVERYTHING from your phone and restoring to the way it was out of the box.

[Q] Fully wipe a500

How can I fully wipe my system and everything back to the stock system like the tab is new without any thing i have done to it ??
Please help fast.
Thank you.
Are you using any custom Rom?? If not there is an option in settings to reset your tablet to Factory Settings. Settings> backup> factory data reset. That will bring your tablet back in the state were it was in when it was new.

Difference between settings/Factory reset and bootloader/wipe/factory reset?

good afternoon,
A quick question-is there a difference between the two? Meaning, does the bootloader factory reset wipe the phone more than going in to settings and factory resetting from there?
