Whats the difference bethween soft reset and hard reset?
There is no bad choises. Only bad results.
In most cases
Soft reset - reinstall without data loss
hard reset - reinstall wiping all data

Greetings,
Is it possible
Usually a hard reset clears all the user installed programs and data and registry settings, recreating your fresh ROM. If you had a failed ROM update, the effects of a hard reset may be corrupted. I've never heard of a corrupted hard reset, however. Did you install anything after the hard reset? Reinstall programs and data from a backup?
Yes
Greetings,
Yes i installed opera, batterystatus.
My wizard was showing strange memory the program was 26mb even after running opera.
But then again i hardreseted and its working properly.
Thanks for the reply.
im am using CRC 13.0 rom and when i back up and install the backup to a new install (hard reset) it will lag and cause me to reset it and it just hangs at the windows mobile screen and then i would have to start the process all over with a hard reset.. what causes this?
If the reason you did a hard reset at the start was because of this issue, then it may be something that you backed up causing the problem. Backing up the registry and the os is a good idea when its working fine, BUT, if there is some problem with the phone, backing up may just save the problem for the next install. Its best in these circumstances to just back up contacts and sms's and do a clean install...
My experiences taught me this.....

Okay, so what I was wondering is would a hard reset delete the settings? Since I had my Imagio flashed to cricket from the cricket store...
Please help,
thanks....
A hard reset deletes EVERYTHING and restores your phone to factory settings. So, if your phone was not originally on Cricket's network, then those settings will be deleted.

What about a soft reset? and which is the hard and soft reset?
.....a soft reset is powering your phone off, then powering it back on.
..a hard reset is wiping EVERYTHING from your phone and restoring to the way it was out of the box.
good afternoon,
A quick question-is there a difference between the two? Meaning, does the bootloader factory reset wipe the phone more than going in to settings and factory resetting from there?
