A hard rest should erase all that stuff. Try it again.

No, unfurtanely not, i don't know what;s wrong with this cellphone i did the reset throught the menu and boot reset but even with those the phone keeps the programs, account, settings everthing i don't know why

You're not doing a real hard reset, you're doing a soft-reset.
Do this:
1) On the Home screen's Settings tab, tap Menu > All Settings > System > Clear Storage.
2) Enter 1234.
3) Tap YES to perform the reset, or tap NO to cancel the reset.

If its still there then format the sd card

SD card won't make a difference, you can actually just take it out and not even use it if you want, it has no bearing on settings etc.. unless you are flashing a custom ROM using sashimi or UC or other restoration things.

Yes, there is:
1) Go to Start Menu.
2) Go to Programs.
3) Go to Clear Storage (this is equivalent to a hard reset, so beware! YOU ARE GOING TO ERASE ALL YOUR INFORMATION & RESTORE TO FACTORY SETTINGS!).
4) Type 1234
5) Press YES.
6) Press OK button.
7) Wait for the reset.
You are now back at the beginning.
Press down the two - keys and press the rest button.
Then 0 to restore to factory settings.
Corporate option will ask for a code.
Its 0506.
You then need THIS CAB file to setup o2 settings or it wont find a network/MMS/3g service.

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.

How do I factory reset a Cingular 8525

I realize how stupid that question looks, but I also can't believe I can't figure out how to do it. I've checked:
1) The CD.
2) The manual.
3) The device itself.
My 8525 is completely hosed and I need to do a factory reset.
How?
Select Start > Settings > System > Clear Storage. Type 1234 in the box and tap Yes. Note: This will erase all information on the device and restore it to factory setting.

Close to the end
Just remember you will lose ALL data

Thanks!
I actually caved and called Cingular. They said to hold down the two soft keys while doing a stylus reset, which I did.
Does your tip do the same, exact thing?
umm dunno,
i dont have this PPC, just found the info on the HTC site, under "Hard reset"
You can try both if you like but if the way you were told ove the phone works, use that seems simpler.
@srchingforsignl: you'd be amazed at what you can find in the hermes wiki too btw...

help password changed suddenly!

I have WM 6.1 instaled
I changed the SIM card, I put the battery again, but now I'm not able to enter windows. I write my password but it say it isn't correct. I can't understand it!!!!
even if I put my old SIM or without sim, now it doesn´t recognise my password.
I wouldn´t like to reinstall everyth just now :-(
what can I do??
please...
thank you
It was said multiple times here, that you should not set up device password because of intermittent errors related to it. Now all ypou can do is HardReset and recover from last backup. Or maybe it's time to make your first backup?
Ohh!!!! no!!!!! mierda!!!!
thanks anyway.
Yes, I haven't got a backup, but I'm not at home so I can't do anything! mierda mieda y mierda!
here u go without a HARD RESET
just go to the hard reset menu by pressing camera+record and reset.
Select yes for clean registry hive and no for others than save.
it will remove password but u may have to re-install some of ur softwares and re configure some settings.
All ur msgs, contact etc. remain intact.
I CAN CONFIRM THIS CAUSE IT HAPPENS WITH ME TOO AND YES TODAY.
This is in fact a Hard Reset (cleaning registry) without formatting internal flash - so files from it are not lost, but most applications will need regular reinstallation.
well it has been said that when you want to remove the battery for some reason, just press the power button to put the device on standby, wait 20 seconds, and then remove the battery without waking the device, this way your registry stuff remains intact and it is a lot harder to screw your pasword.
krishan2207's way is more proper for your case, you will suffer almost nothing this way

It won't go back even after removing it via Start > Settings > System > Remove Programs?
If that doesn't do it, you're going to have to do a hard reset (complete wipe of the phone). Backup everything on your phone! The only things that won't get erased are the things in the SD card.
To do the hard reset: turn off the phone, then press/hold Talk/Send, End, and Power button at the same time until a prompt comes up warning you about a factory reset. Follow the prompt to completely wipe your phone memory.
That will restore everything the way it was when it came from the factory.

I realize that an instance may occur where using the three-button hard-reset is the only option (device won't boot or blank screen), but I wonder if running 'Clear Storage' wouldn't serve the same purpose? Are there any differences in the desired results or are the two methods of resetting a Rhodium identical in this regard?
surely a hard reset is a bit harsh, can't you just install a different tab slider, there must be a stock 2.1 slider floating around somewhere, i'll see if i have one on my Harddrive, you are using stock 2.1 yeh?
One of these two should work for you try each of them as i don't know what build your phones on
To install Go into settings>today-Settings>untick Sense, then install after install retick sense and you should be back on..hope it works for you dude
Thanks very much it has worked after installing the cabs u gave me. Cheerse much appreciated

Thats great news! no need for a HR, glad i could help
I reckon the best paid app i ever got has to be SPB back-up i think its about £20 but well worth it, it doesn't just back-up your PIM(txts, numbers,etc) it backs up everything, i can completely wipe my device and reinstall everything just as it was using this, ive tried there other products but not been that impressed but this i cant live without. Then you can try stuff out without fear of not being able to uninstall!!!
