Hi everyone, I was trying a new software and when I tried to recover from a Sprite backup, the phone now hangs on the boot up screen (the one with the R, G and D version numbers).
¿Could someone please tell me how to force a hard reset on start up?. I'm starting to panic.
Turn off phone, press both softkeys and then press the powerbutton for exactly one second!
Not more! Then release it...
It tells me to press the "send" button. ¿Which one is it?.
For those who want to reset it while the system is running they'll have to do this:
Go to Start >More > Expert > Clear Storage.
Then you have to enter 1234 and reset

Disregard my previous question, I've already found out.
¡¡Thank you very much Dumdidum!!. You saved my day.
To HARD RESET Turn off the phone, keep pressed the two soft keys on the front, then press power for 1-2 seconds and it will ask to press SENd key. Send key = the green key for making calls.
If you press something else the phone will reboot.
I already found out, but thank you anyway.

Just to give proper credit, it was actually Dumdidum who first answered me on how to hard reset thru hardware.

Yea, but he only gave you part of the story.
Quick advice
Thanks for the info . Just a comment, the trick is to just momentairly press the on/off switch as you hold down both of the soft buttons. You must continue to hold both of those down until you see a message on the screen. Keeping the power button pressed didn't do the trick for me.
I am a new comer for the WM6. My X03HT(S730) can't do the hard reset after I install a Chinese input for professional/classical version. Does it make my S730 fail to do the hard reset? My S730 now is no function with the keyboard after I get in OS. By the way, the tripod-color mode is work.
*OOPS* wrong device
Yo thanx lalvarado,
Your advice did the thing for me, super!

I know this is a abiouse question but I have to ask, mate.. You are not running flat on batteries? If you havent flashed youre device, and it wount boot and you got power on it you should check youre waranty on the device. Try to charge it for 10 minuts or so (check that you have charging light on) then try to start it again.
I understand you correctly that you havent HardSPL youre device at all or?

just be sure u are doing the hardreset right. Some guys had problems, cause they had big fonger and they were pushing not just the soft buttons but also a buttons that are around them.
Hold these two soft buttons, then stick the stylus to the hole and hold it there antil a white screen appears where is the message shown. Then push the green phine button.

Ok, I have seen the videos. Did u try the reset with the kaiser closed?
I remember a thread with similar problem, will try o find it and post back.
PS: In the first video, u have three hands!!
OK, I found this one:

Similar problem, does your kaiser reboot continuosly or the screen just flashes.
Your best bet is to read the whole thread, try to learn something about mtty and contact gsleon.
People,
I tried searching, but since almost every thread mentions "soft resets" and "app's" and "prog's" I could not find anything.
I'm looking for a simple way to do a soft reset without opening my cover. So a single software button somewhere would be fine if it would let me do a soft reset.
Is there anything out there that can do this?
You don't need to open the cover to soft reset.
There's a button in the stylus "hole" (where you put your stylus in the diamond) to do this.

psShutXP has soft reset.
Here you go, I made especially for you D) in 30 sec a little app (mortscript)
Just unzip where you want, and launch softreset.exe
I Didn't tested it but I think it'll work
Or you can just press the power button for some 5 seconds and the device will ask if you want to turn it off. Answer yes and you are done with your soft reset... it takes a little bit more time, but its safe and will turn off your applications so you don't loose any data...
Assign psShutXP to soft key and you have soft reset and hard reset and turnoff screen and sleep device all in one.
There is a quick app that you can put in your programs menu.

Just hold down the power button for 3 seconds.

Howto hard reset / Soft reset?
Soft reset:
Poke your stylus at the reset button.
Hard reset:
1. turn off the phone
2. Hold both right and left buttons (the ones right under the screen, dont know the name)
3. press power button, while still holding the others
Another way of doing it is hold the two buttons and poke your stylus at the reset button, then on your keyborad press r
Dont have the reset button using the ROM from XDA
(Nov 21) Touch-IT X1 M-HD 1.1 <<<UP NOW>>>
The reset button isnt a software feature, its a physical button, located under the battery cover in the middle of the stylus silo.
Check your X1 manual, its all described in there.
Bit of a silly question here but im fairly new to WM, after owning my X1 since for a while now, i've installed all manor of rubbish on it testing bits and bobs out.
Just wanting to know a few things about the reset if anyone could confirm them:
Soft reset:
Just resets the device and boots back up as normal without removing anything?
Hard reset:
Removes everything back to factory default. Though I have heard people not being able to use GPS and messaging/internet. Mine was not a branded device so I imagine it should be fine.
That's about right.
hello
can i just clarify here then - if u soft reset, then u will not lose any files/pictures/programs/softwares etc in ur phone?
cheers

A soft reset is the same as turning the phone off, then back on.

You have to hold the 2 keys mentioned and the power button "all at the same time" then release the power button first. after that press R on your keboard, that should do the trick. tried it and it works
Keep the soft keys HELD DOWN until the color screen shows up.

Thanks for this specific method.
How do you know if its worked, the phone turned on straight away when i held down the left and right button and power, should it do that?
why do people reset their phones daily or just alot? wat does it do for u?
Soft Rest, Hard reset .. 1 finger
In your dialer type *74*# and then dial.
It will ask you for soft reset, hard reset or Device info.
Eazy, convinient,...working in almost all ROMs (but I have had a ROM where it was not working)... Now I have EneryROM and it works!

Doesn't work for me (Smaberg's Touch X 10.1)
The key thing people are doing wrong is holding down the power button and the two soft keys when hard resetting. make sure you let go of the power button straight away! (continue to hold the soft keys!)

Hello everyone.
I am new to the whole custom rom and flashing thing, but after some reading and researching I decided to backup my stock rom and flash a custom one.
So I did successfully, to the point when the flash is done and I should do a so called Hard Reset. I've done the hard reset thing before and it worked, but now when I hold the both "silver" couloured buttons and the powerbutton at once the phone vibrates once and start booting.
I just don't know how to proceed with this since my X1 won't go in to Hard reset mode, I have no idea why or what I should do, so please, anyone just give me a hint and make my day.
Sorry if this is a totally useless thread for everyone else and it's just being annoying, but I really need some help here guys and girls.
Thanks in advance / Anton.
You probably just haven't gone through this procedure:

Good luck!
Actually I did, I followed BioVolt's videoguides on every step and when I checked afterwards on the tri color bootloader-screen it said: "KOVS110 SPL-0.72.01iNex" wich indicates that the Hard SPL procedure was successful.
Thanks for the hint tough, problem still not solved...

I had the same problem - what you need to do is NOT hold the power button for long, just for like a second then it should work.
I too faced hardreset problem earlier, then later i found the following procedure holds corrects, atleast for my mobile. What i do is, press both silver buttons at a time and press power button only once and leave it(just press and leave only power button not the silver colored ones)..after few secs it will go to hard reset mode...
Try holding down the volume down button and the power button to go into the bootloader mode. From there, continue with your normal hard reset procedure which is holding down the 2 silver buttons and then press the reset button.
You only need to hold the two soft keys (silver buttons) to get into hard reset mode. if your phone is off, then you only need to tap the power button to turn on the phone, not hold it, but continue to hold the silver keys until you get the grey screen.
Hope that helps

You need to completely shutdown your X1 first before hardreset. I mean COMPLETELY: remove your battery for at least 5s, then attach it and hard rest your device.
Thanks alot guys, actually the problem got solved by now, I treid a method I hadn't heard of before where you hold your two softkeys and under the battery cover give the "stylus hole" a push..
Worked just fine! Thanks alot to everyone bothering to help me, it's thanks to you guys I now have a working X1
Kinds regards / Anton.
the reason why its hard for people to hard reset from when its off is because they're holding the power button as well as the two silver keys!
you just hold the two silver keys and press the power key once, quickly.
keep holding the two silver keys until press R comes up!
