Anyone know how?
isn't removing the battery a hard reset?
no that would just soft reset. I want to erase all contents and restore to factory settimgs...
OK sorry, fount it. You need to go into fastboot (power off then hold power and trackball), then select bootloader and clear storage.
You can also go into Settings -> Privacy. There is an option to do a Factory Data Reset

I want to "reinstall" windows on my Wizard. How can i do that ? (i want to clean it up or master reset) ....
thanks
It's called a hard reset. Go to Settings, System, Clear Storage. This will return the unit to factory settings.
or hold comm and voice button as you do a soft reset, then press power button when holding the two buttons
I had some problems with my Touch Dual which forced me to reset it by means of the reset button. Now finally it seems that I've destroyed the button
Since I need Hard Reset (system is locked and I cannot enter the requested "a1b2c3" sequence) just removing the battery is not sufficient.
I there an alternative way to force a Hard Reset?
I think...
Start > Settings > System > Clear Storage
...is the same as a hard reset, other alternative is to reinstall a rom...
Reflash a ROM if you have one.
I also wouldn't be surprised to find there is an mtty command that does it too - check the wiki.
Is there an SSPL for the Niki that would allow people to run mtty commands? not sure but worth checking into...
Found out that with SKTool one can perform a hard rest, too. Works perfect and finally solves my reset button problem
BTW: HTC rejected to fix the button problem, very very very poor service ...
do they have a reset button, cos mine doesn't. i usually have to take the battery out.
which reset button, if you mean the little one in the back you can hard reset by holding red and green buttons when you switch on
If you need to Hard Reset, here's the easy way:
-Hold Red Button Down
-Soft Reset
-The Screen will say Erase Data?
-Press Up
Done.
Ok so im running custom Paranoid cyanogenmod android rom v1.5 and i need to hard reset all information in my phone.
I've tried doing the both volume buttons and power button to hard reset,but that didnt work,even my messages stayed.
I've tried doing factory reset in option,didn't work either.
When im entering aMAGDLR V1.13 recovery( pressing power button til i enter boot menu) there is an option for AD hard reset or just reset and i think they might work, but the key problem to this is that my calling button isnt working and i just cant choose anything in the boot menu..Any ideas if i could hard reset with pc or in any other way?
Have you tried resetting from within android?
System settings > Privacy (I think) > Factory Reset **BE CAREFUL, this might format your sdcard, I'm not sure. So either keep the card out (If you're not doing a2sd or similar stuff, or back it up**
Also, for the device hard reset, it's volume UP only.. But I think it was part of windows mobile ROMs so it might not work with MAGLDR.
Another option for you to try is to reflash MAGLDR. That might erase your stuff, but I don't know how you'll put CWM back since your CALL key is not working.
Sorry, I don't have the HD2 anymore and I'm kind of rusty.. Hope the above helps
Hi. I'm using s10 5g running android 11. After updating to android 11 my phone does lag a lot so i decided to reset my phone. Since my power button is broken so i can only reset via Settings. I have something to ask you:
My Secure Folder contains a lot of files, can i reset without losing them?
Will resetting solve my lag? apps even reset when I back to home, use other app and back to that app. it also takes me up to ~10s from tapping shutter button to taking pic. Camera sometimes out when swipe to "other modes".
Which section in reset in settings equivatlent to factory reset/wipe /cache, dalvik and wipe /data? I previously use TWRP to reset but i cant now (broken power button). Resetting options of samsung really confuse me.
Can reset in Settings be done without power button?
Thank you
