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!

Mapping hardware buttons on Vario 3

Basicly, on my MDA vario 3 whenever I press the "internet/WnW" button nothing happens, when I press "start/windows" button or I press the main front "ok" button, it takes me to "file explorer". Anyone else have similar problems, if so, whats the solution?

Go to Start> Settings> Buttons
Then reassign these buttons to their defaults or whatever you wish
Cheers

I tried that but the "ok", "windows" and "WnW" are not showing up in there.

[REQ] FDCSoft Start Menu

hello there!
this is my first post here, although I've been member since a while
I hope you can help me solve my problem:
I've installed FDCSoft Start Menu [http://www.dotfred.net/FdcStartMenu.htm] and it works very great, but it only pops up when I press the hardware Start Button... and when the on-screen Start Menu is pressed, it shows the default Start Menu...
is there any way to fix that so when I press Start on screen the New Star Menu pops up?
thanks in advance! =)

when I press the Windows flag in the upper left corner I get the FDCsoft Start menu, and when I pres the Start text next to it the normal menu.
Maybe try to hit the screen really in the upleft corner...
(I have WM6.1 on Kaiser)

I'm very late, but a little help !
You can download and install "hook start menu", do a search on this forum.

Thanks to TacoLoco, the AE Button Plus keylist:

Hi, made a list which button in AE Button Plus belongs to which hardware button or combination:
App Button 1 - Win
App Button 2 - OK
App Button 3 - Fn + Green Button
App Button 4 - Fn + Win
App Button 5 - Fn + OK / OK Long Press
App Button 6 - Media (side) Long Press
Windows Key - Media (side)
Fn means the button with the white square on it..
So you can configure nearly all combination, except Fn + Red Button..

Here's the camera.lnk shortcut:
Camera.lnk shortcut
Put it in the windows -> start menu -> programs-map and there it is with the rest. The quick access shortcut to a super snapshot with our ultimate 1.3 MP camera
I use AE Button Plus for remapping. Just go to the "windows key", for single press: Camera.lnk , double press: Press enter

Fn + P / backlight

@navenedrob
do you find that the right click time response is a bit slower than wm6.1?
any tweak to make it "normal"?
