Resetting Your Pocket PC Phone

You can perform a soft reset or a full reset. During a soft reset, the Pocket PC Phone is
restarted and only some data in opened programs may be lost. However, a full reset turns
the battery off, returns the device to its original factory settings, and deletes all programs,
files, contacts, and other information you have saved to the device. Therefore, it is extremely
important to back up data to a storage card or your computer on a regular basis in the event
that a full reset has to be performed.
To perform a soft reset:
If your Pocket PC Phone responds slowly, stops responding, or freezes, you can soft reset
it. A soft reset causes the Pocket PC Phone to restart and re-adjust memory allocation.
Unsaved data in any opened applications may be lost. Use the stylus to press and hold
the Reset button, as shown below on the left.
Soft Reset Full Reset
To perform a full reset
A full device reset clears memory, deletes all data, and restores the Pocket PC Phone to
its default settings. Programs installed at the factory remain. All data that you have created
and programs you have installed are erased.
Press and hold the Power button, and then use your stylus to press the "soft reset button"
at the same time, as shown above on the right. Be sure you have backed up all your data
on an SD card or on a desktop PC before performing a full reset.
