Performing a factory reset via settings
The most convenient way to do a factory reset is via the phone settings.
On the Home screen's Settings tab, tap Menu > All Settings > System > Clear Storage.
Enter 1234.
Tap YES to perform the reset, or tap NO to cancel the reset.
Performing a factory reset using phone buttons
If you cannot turn on your phone or access the phone settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using buttons on the phone.
With your phone powered off, press and hold the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
While holding the volume buttons, press the END/POWER button briefly and then release it.
When you see a warning message on screen, release the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
Well that did the job for me..... i suggest use it if u need it only!
it happened to me too
hd2 password lock is not reliable at all, it happened to me twice so far. very annoying. hard reset is the only solution.

Hi, a helpfull friend has set the WM5 password to strong alphanumeric and has forgotten it,or just wont tell me what it is. Can anyone tell me, how can I get around this to get MDA Vario working again?
Many thanks
I think a hard reset may fix.
But I am not to sure.
I have tried that, device is still coming up with password request.
All I can think of is flashing it with a new ROM but if it goes bad it could kill the device and I am not sure it would remove it but in theory it should. Other members may have some hacks to fix it.
A hard reset will definitely remove the password, maybe you are just soft resetting the device.
I have tried as says in manual many times, it comes back up with the password screen every time.
I can only try it with MDA:
Turned off
Turned on with password screen illuminated
Manual says:
88 Managing Your MDA Vario
To perform a hard reset
1. Press and hold the Comm Manager button and Voice Command button on
the device.
2. Keep the two buttons pressed, and at the same time, use the stylus to lightly
press and hold the RESET button.
RESET button
Voice Command button
Comm Manager button
I have tried it with MDA:
turned off
turned on showing password screen
Sounds like you are doing the reset wrong....
Hard resets are awkward - hold in the two top side buttons, press the reset and keep holding the top two buttons after you have removed the stylus from the reset hole. About four seconds should do it.
Hope that helps.
you'll know if you got it because you'll get a black screen with white lettering that says "press send to format" or the like
otherwise its just a soft reset. On an older ipaq I had, if I had a password it would ask on teh PC everytime I synched. This was with PPC 2003. I'm not sure if you'll still have a problem when you try to sync your data though.
Good luck.
Bilbo_28 & others - You were right, I was not doing a hard reset properly and getting only the soft reset.
It seems after doing it a few times, that the hard reset instructions in the manual should read something like:
hold in the two top side buttons, both the send and receive buttons leds should come on and stay lit.
Insert the stylus in the reset hole and observe both send and receive buttons extinguish
remove the stylus from the reset hole and keep holding the two top side buttons until:
The screen goes black and the following message appears:
Press send to restore
factory default,
Other keys to quit
Release the top two side buttons
Then press SEND to restore factory default
or press any other key to abort hard reset
I think an e-mail to T-Mobile telling them to update the manual would not go amiss !!
Many thanks for your assistance.
Thankz man
hey thankz man really got a great relief
Wow. I was doing the hard reset wrong. I had the same password problem. But now its stuck on the "align screen" menu wth? It moves the cursor around the screen and yet it comes back to the menu. I've run through it at least 10 times now

i dont fully understand your question but ive heard adding welcome.not to storage card will bypass screen alignment. alternatively this is my calibration data if you can enter it in the registry somehow: 504,519 222,220 221,817 793,812 783,217
problem solved:
Hard reset: Press and hold the Left SOFT KEY and Right SOFT KEY, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the bottom of your device. You will be presented with a menu saying 'press SEND to restore factory default, press END to exit', if you press SEND Your device will be set back to factory default settings.than Press "OK" to boot
thanks to all
Someone pls help me. I had my BA password protected. The problem is i've resetted it but i didn't change anything and now i cannot access my BA coz it dont accept my password :-(. Pls help me
ah.... i think many people here knows this bugs has happened from WM6.0 soft reset may help you..
if the problem persist
go to boot loader mode to clean only the registry hive (it may resulting your installed programs to stop working....)
to clarify on the above post, press both left hand side buttons in and then press the reset button. then you should get 3 options. you press the top left button to scroll through the options and the bottom left hand side button to enable or disable the option. after the options are set, press the reset button. if this doesnt work, press the power button, the top left button and the reset button and flash your device
HR is ok! Happy lucky!
Hi there
I seemed to have got myself into trouble. My HD Touch has locked itself.
I restored a backup from SPB Backup, it has asked for a password and I have tried both passwords which I had on the system and without any result.
I have also tried to perform a hard reset using the power keys and the pressing the two volume buttons but I held onto them for over 5 minutes without any result.
Has anyone got any other ideas how I can get back into the phone?
Thanks
Kaid
A hard reset is press and hold power to turn off.
Then press and hold both volume buttons, whilst holding the volume buttons press and release the power button.
Once the boot screen is visible release the volume buttons and follow the on-screen instructions.
Thank You - Relief
Mild panic was beginning to set in here as I thought I had f**ked up a very expensive phone.
Back in business!
Cause of lock..
Hi,
Any idea on what the cause of the lock was?
If you use pushmail you're pushmail provider (mostly work) may have a policy which requires a password. They can remotely activate this..
If this was the case, google for "Zenyee Stay Unlock" works great for me..
Regards.

So a push-mail provider is able to totally lock my device? Another reason not to make use of this service .
hi guys!
long time with no post from me but today the stupid thing (HD) did it again
i installed an app for home page tweaking and after the soft reset my HD dosen't starts right
it boots, does what it does but it sucks on the black screen with some icons on the top bar and the names of the soft keys on the bottom bar. i can only turn ona anf off the screen by pressing the power button, but nothing else. screen doesn't react, soft keys don't react either
i don't realy want to hard reset it because it took few months to make it working right, but i would do also this if there is no other solution
BUT...
when i try to hard reset it it stucked again in the tricolour mode with "SERIAL" word on the botom
what is this? i can't write anything so what is this serial all about?
so, please let me know if there is any solution for:
1. step by step booting in order to skip the process or application that cause the stuck?
2. how can i hard reset the thinggie?
thanks a lot!
Had the same problem after I installed HTC home and HTC customizer...after a soft reset, TF3D failed to load and the phone froze. Had to hard reset in the end--thankfully, I run a backup once a week, so I really didn't lose anything. I was able to run 'Clear Storage' before TF3D's startup fail managed to freeze my phone. So it's all good on my end...
Backup backup backup...a little too late...
Maybe you are not doing the hard reset correctly, you press and hold both Vol up & Vol down keys, whilst holding down power button aswell until it turns on. Hard reset screen should come up.

Sounds like a software issue Hard Reset sounds best
What you are seeing (Tri Coloured Screen) is the boot loader it probably showed up because you didnt hold the volume up key when doing Hard Reset
its not a problem just remove battery
then do hard reset (make sure both volume buttons UP/Down are press at the same time and press power button ..........follow what the screen says
thank you guys for your opinions
i know how to do a hard reset (cause is not the first one) and i tryed severl times before i post my request here
