How to Reset HTC Touch Diamond
Perform Soft and Hard Reset on HTC Touch Diamond
Resetting Your Device
Soft reset
Occasionally, you may need to reset your device. A soft (or normal) reset of your device clears all active program memory and shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when your device is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some programs. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work will be lost.
To perform a soft reset
1. Pull out the stylus.
2. Remove the back cover.
3. Use the stylus to press the RESET button located at the bottom of the back side of the device. Your device restarts and displays the Home screen.
Hard reset
You can also perform a hard reset (also known as a full reset). A hard reset should only be performed if a normal reset does not solve a system problem. After a hard reset, the device is restored to its default settings—the way it was when you first purchased it and turned it on. Any programs you installed, data you entered, and settings you customized on your device will be lost. Only Windows Mobile® software and other pre-installed programs will remain.
Warning! Your device will be set back to factory default settings. Make sure that any additional installed programs and/or user data have been backed up before you perform a hard reset.
Important:
If Encrypt files when placed on a storage card is enabled, backup all files from the storage card before using Clear Storage, hard reset, or updating the ROM system software. Otherwise you will no longer be able to access the encrypted files on the storage card. Use ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center to transfer files between your storage card and computer. After the procedure, copy your files back to the storage card.
To perform a hard reset
1. Turn off the power.
2. Press and hold the ENTER key, and then press the POWER key.
3. Release the POWER key, but continue pressing the ENTER key until you see the following message on the screen:
4. Release the ENTER key, then press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
After the device performs the hard reset and restarts, the customization process will start followed by the Quick Start Wizard.
Clear Storage
Another way of clearing the device storage and reset all settings back to factory default settings is to use the Clear Storage feature. You will lose all your data and files on the device storage when you use Clear Storage, so make sure to do a backup first.
1. Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Memory > Clear Storage tab.
2. Enter “1234” and then tap OK.
