Hard Reset Touch2
Found this via my good friend Google (and already tested it on the phone of my girlfriend)
To perform a hard reset
1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons, then press the END/POWER button shortly and release it. You will then see a message on the screen.
2. Release the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
3. Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.

The Key combo works ! also if u have access to your phone from Start -> Settings -> System -> Clear Storage - i've done it once - deletes contacts , programs , clock/data , and etc. really helpfull if u got screwed by a program ! i recommend instaling a backup program and making a backup once a week ! that's how u can be sure that nothing 's gonna f8ck up when u try new things and make that backup on the memory card so u just removed it before reseting ... try a way to connect it to a PC and delete the thing u think is screwing and then load the backup and have fun ;]]

no thats a "soft reset" hard reset turn the phone off (take battery out and reinsert if cant do from with in windows) press and hold volume up and down keys at same time, keep holding these and press power button. when text comes up press volume up button to restore device. (BTW you will lose all data on phone memory)

Go ahead and soft reset your device however this time when doing so hold the volume up and down together and then following instructions.
Hope this helped...
Couple methods of hard resetting:
Turn off device
Hold the volume down & volume up button while you press the power on button.
You should be presented with white screen and text. Press vol up to restore factory settings (i.e. hard reset)
Alternatively,
Go to Start > settings > system > clear storage (may be called 'wipe device' on some roms)
Generally once I flash a rom, before it automatically configures device I remove battery and do a hard reset

What is your current SPL?
When did this first start happening?
Have you recently installed any apps?

Hi there abiis,
You can try resetting your phone back to factory settings by performing a Hard Reset. Try to uninstall any programs that you may have recently installed first that may be causing a conflict. You can backup any data on your phone (such as Contacts, Messages, etc) using PIMBackup before you perform a Hard Reset.
To perform a Hard Reset, try the following:
1. With the device turned off, press and hold the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons, then briefly press the POWER button.
2. Continue pressing the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons until you see this message on the screen:
Warning! Your device will be set back to factory default settings. Please ensure any additional installed programs and/or user data have been backed up before a hard reset is performed.
3. Release the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons, press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.

i know this option but i need a solution without having a hard reset thanks any way
can't you just backup before hardreset ?
To be honest, I think a Hard Reset would resolve your problem with the dropped calls... but if you are unwilling to perform a hard reset, then I would suggest that you try sending your phone back to HTC for repair assuming it is still under warranty?
Best Regards.
well this depends greatly
which end call button is he using. if it the red software one then its a software problem, and this would be remedied with a had reset
if its the one on the bottom of the phone with the 4 button (start call, home, back and end call) then this could indicate a hardware issue and in that case i recommend a return to vendor
Hi all,

Phone is currently running the blackstone henge rom (or whatever it's called) and has been network unlocked..
Anyone have any idea's how to?
Cheers

please help i just got a new t4242 in the box and the guy in the shop probably did something stupid by setting a lock code without of course recognising it... plz help what can i do?is there a combination of keys to press in order to make it work?
You can undo this indeed via hard reset:
1. Switch of device.
2. Hold VOLUME DOWN and press ENTER, next push on/off button.
Than you get a message on the screen:
"All data will be lost etc."
3. Push button VOLUME UP to execute hard reset. Or press any other key to stop.....
!!!

Glad to hear .....another phone saved from mobile graveyard....
