HTC Touch Pro Mode D'Emploi

88  Managing Your Device

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.

Pull out the stylus. 

Use the stylus tip to press the 

RESET button located at the 

bottom of the device.
Your device restarts and displays 

the Home screen.

 

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.
