Can't Hard Reset

I'm selling my O2 XDA Mini-S and want to Hard Reset it for various reasons but it won't work. I've tried the combination of comm manager voice dial and reset buttons either from off or on position but it still won't hard reset.
The only thing i've done away from the norm is have it unlocked for all networks. Has this stopped me hard resetting it. When I reset it I get the following info :
ipl 2.21
spl 2.21
gsm 02.07.10
os 2.21.4.1
Can anyone offer any advice quickly please as I sell it on Saturday?

how about start - settings - system - clear storage?

Will that clear the add/remove programs too ? And the registry tweaks I've added for my Today screen ?

Yes it will do, Hard Reset is like reverting your phone back to its out of the box condition.

No, I CAN'T hard reset. I was advised above to use Clear Storage and was asking if this would remove the registry tweaks ?!

*Faint*. Just for your information, the "Clear Storage" is a HARD RESET.

Oh, thanks very much for your advice all.

Handy Menu also has an option.

You can use "System Restore" utility available in your PPC. This is actually a hard reset utility.

VJEschaton can hard/soft reset most HTC phones (amongst other things), but don't know about the Ipaq.

Does not work for WM5 and VJEschaton only soft resets it even if you use the hard reset function !! does anybody know of anything else !!

I'd imagine something like SKTools can probably hard reset any device. It's not hard, but requires a bit of code. The hard reset "hack" we used on WM2003 is not effective >= WM5.

I know... I want to do it (hard reset). But the problem is that I can't access the Start Menu. Does anybody knows another way to do it?

if you hard reset your start menu will be restored.
If you have any acess to a explorer aplication thru your today plugins, navigate to the windows/start menu folder.
Otherwise, hard reset with the keys shortcuts, like its explained in you manual.

I can't access anything on the PDA since I turn it ON. It's like it gets stucked on something... I see the START Menu, and the two shortcut keys (in my case calendar and contacts) but I can't do anything unless turn the PDA off... But I will check the manual and see if I can do an hard reset without going to the definitions in the Start Menu (hope that's possible...)

I have managed the situation. Hard reset made "manually". Anyway thank's to everibody that tried to help.
Some moderator/admin close this post please

i have a problem.....

hi all
recently i installed the S2U2 app ,i used it for a while and earlier today i uninstalled it
the problem is that now pressing the red (hung up) button doesnt lock the device
i suppose something must be don in the registry but i dont know what.....
HELP ME PLEASE

Hi there
Have you tried a soft reset?
If yes it might be a good idea to do a hard reset but make sure you back up all your info.

There is a .cab on s2u2 offical website to restore wm6.5 lock screen and if you can't find it try to google RestoreWM65DeviceLock.cab file and install it.
That will solve your problem. No need to change registry settings.
