If you have a PH20B1 device such as SX66:
* Quickly press "Record" & "Windows Media" before the versions appear at bottom right EITHER
* OR press "Power" & "Windows Media" & "Record" buttons and Reset at the same time

Am I missing someting? Can't do a hard reset ...

Trying to do a hardreset by following the manual ...
Press and hold the left SOFT KEY and the right SOFT KEY, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the bottom of your device.
OK ... tried that ... but the device just does a soft reset and starts up normally afterwards. The left / right soft keys are the ones you use to select the associated menu / selection options in applications.
Note that the hard reset through the other route works fine:
1. [FONT=VAOIKY+MyriadPro-Regular,Myriad Pro]Tap [/FONT]Start > Settings > System [FONT=VAOIKY+MyriadPro-Regular,Myriad Pro]tab [/FONT]> Clear Storage[FONT=VAOIKY+MyriadPro-Regular,Myriad Pro].
[/FONT]2. [FONT=VAOIKY+MyriadPro-Regular,Myriad Pro]Type "1234" in the box and tap [/FONT]YES[FONT=VAOIKY+MyriadPro-Regular,Myriad Pro]. [/FONT]

I got same result.
However, you can do this :
1. Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Clear Storage.
2. Type "1234" in the box and tap YES.
I did that, and it hard reset the device nicely.

Make sure you have both buttons pressed and held when you hit the reset button and don't let the buttons go until you see the screen flash again. Then, as soon as the screen flashes let the buttons go and you should see the reset menu.

Tried that including numerous variations of how long to keep the buttons pressed ... doesn't work.
What exactly do you mean by "until you see the screen flash again"? Do you mean the screen first turning black, or do you mean the screen turning from black to the next screen with "smart mobility" shown in the middle?
Also can you please post your ROM details (mine are in the sig), thanks.
Note that the two buttons you need to press are not exactley below the screen - as the yes and no buttons are little curved to let you press it by mistake
Finally ...
Yes the buttons really suck compared to the TyTN I unless you have miniscule girlie fingers ...
Anyway thanks for the pointer ... I changed tactics and pressed the keys with my right hand and making 100% sure that no other adjacent key is accidentally pressed as well ... use the left hand for the stylus to reset
Thanks!

Hard Reset / Clear Storage

Does anyone know how to enable this option? I just installed a cooked ROM and the option is not there?
JKO
Press and hold both the softkeys and press the reset button.
Keep holding the softkeys until you see a screen asking you if you want to delete all you data.
On this screen press send (green phone)
Voila!

MIUI - Screen capture

Hi,
When I try to do a print screen using menu + volume down, the picture that is captured includes the "silence ringtone" window that pops up (relating to the pressing of the volume key). Can the display of volume be switched off?
Also, is there any way to select different key combinations? I am using a soft key for menu (Button Savior), and hitting that with the volume down key is more miss than hit - about 2 in 25 attempts!
BTW, I am using MIUI 1.8.5 ROM.
TIA
Elkay
I even cannot do screen shot by using Menu+Volume- buttons. Actually I want to know if there is a way to define sofkey in Button Savior.

I haven't been able to repeat a capture, but I have 2 screenshots as evidence it is possible.
I haven't found any way of defining a softkey in Button Savior.

Change long press Home button

Currently holding the square screen button does a screenshot, rather redundant with Volume Down+Power. Any way to change it something else?
Never mind, it's the recent apps button/ alt tab button, whatever you want to call it. It's not the home button.
It can be changed in >Gestures>Screen Tools> Screenshot>recent apps key
