How to hard reset an iphone 4s
i HAD CHANGED PHONES TO A GALAXY NOTE 3 AND KEEP MY IPHONE 4S AS BACKUP. I RECENTLY DROPPED MY NOTE 3 AND BROKE IT. SO NOW I AM HAVING TO GO BACK TO THE IPHONE TEMPORARILY. HOWEVER I CANT ACCESS IT BECAUSE I HAVE FORGOTTEN THE PASSCODE. IS THERE A WAY TO FIX THIS?
There is no such thing as a "hard reset" on an iPhone. There is a reset (pressing and holding the Home and power buttons until the Apple appears) which is the equivalent of rebooting. Or, you can restore the device. Resetting will not help in this case.
Follow these instructions:
Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
Forum Tip: typing all in caps is considered shouting and therefore, rude. It's also hard to read. Some people will not ever try.
Best of luck.

Can anyone tell me how to hard reset an iPhone? Thanks!
Apple Technical Support does not **** if you are within warranty or paid for AppleCare. Otherwise, you are expecting something for free when everyone else was required to pay. In my opinion, that would ****.
Apple's website has plenty of knowledgebase articles that you can access for free. You can try it too. I searched the Internet for iphone reset and here is one of the top hits:

There are also the forums (i.e., here) where other users are more than willing to volunteer their time to help you solve issues. -

Thanks for your reply. Having read through relevant topics it suggests that if I sync my iphone with the correct account on my pc it should use that one thereafter. i will try both.

How can i reset my iphone without update to ios 7.0.6
how can i reset my iphone without update to ios 7.0.6
You can wipe the device without updating:
Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings
I would be remiss not to mention that iOS 7.0.6 patches a security flaw.
If you choose not to update, your device will be at risk.

How do i reset my iphone 4s to manufactirers
How do I reset my iphone 4s to manufacrurers? and also in settings, reset button in the$ general the phone require passcode. where can I get the passcode as well?
If you forgot your iPhone passcode you can bypass the lock screen completely and reset the passcode by using iPhone recovery mode.
Warning: This will require you to restore your iPhone or iPod touch, this means you’ll lose all data on the device and be back to factory settings.
Bypass & Reset the iPhone Passcode
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, leave the other end connected to your Mac/PC
Launch iTunes
Press and hold the Home and Power button on the top of the iPhone to turn off the device
Press and continue to hold the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to your iPhone, this will cause the iPhone to turn on
Continue to hold the Home button until an alert message in iTunes appears that an iPhone in recovery mode has been detected
Now that the iPhone is in recovery mode, you must restore the device:
From iTunes, look under the “Summary” tab
Click on the “Restore” button within iTunes
This will wipe all files, settings, and apps from the iPhone, including the passcode. When the restore is finished, the iPhone will be at the factory settings. At this point you can choose to start from scratch or to restore the iPhone from a backup. -
