Resetting HTC Velocity 4G

Do a factory reset to return HTC Velocity 4G to its original state before the first time
you turned it on.
If you're passing HTC Velocity 4G on to someone else or HTC Velocity 4G has a
persistent problem that cannot be solved, you can perform a factory reset (also called
a hard reset). Factory reset is not a step to be taken lightly. It'll permanently delete all
your data and customized settings, and will remove any applications you've
downloaded and installed. Be sure to back up any data and files you want to keep
before you do a factory reset.
