keep pressing for 10 seconds?
I have read "hold down the Volume Down and Enter (round navigation) keys and press soft reset while they are pressed" but it seems not working on mine.
Let me know (nothing about the power button)

That should do the trick and if it does not either www.youfail.org or the phone is broken in some way.

Actually, it's Start - settings - clear storage - 1234
Just clearing that up for those that can't find it under programs.
how if press power (hold) and press reset with ur sylus .. ?!
I had to hard reset my Diamond a few days ago.
Press and hold volume down and the action key,
press and hold for a few seconds soft reset button with the stylus (while still holding volume down and action),
release soft reset button but keep the others pressed until the message appears on the screen.
Once the message appears you either press volume up to hard reset and leave internal storage intact or volume down to hard reset and clear internal storage.
If you get the timing wrong the phone will just soft reset and you will need to try again. It took me about six goes to get it right.
i dont understand the hard reset. why would i want to do this!?!

There are many reasons:
1. Youve installed a new ROM and just restored via Sprite backup, only to find that its corrupt
2. Your having problems with your phone hanging / crashing and a soft reset wont work
3. Seems to solve alot of problems (from what ive read on this forum)
4. I dont do it very often, but I did have the issue I listed at the top so it was very handy to not have to reflash the ROM again just because of a software problem
Hope this helps!

you and some of yr friends here didn't even bother to read the manual...where does it write that you use power button?????
the first place to look for an answer must be yr user manual.
if you still have problems use the search button and you'll find lots of info about this trivial subject.
just to prove my point i did a search for you.
hope that next time you'll think twice before you stat a thread.

why did they make it so hard?? lol i am not so elastic!!
just to add to all this i tried everything that you all said (press volume down button + actions button + reset) but it only worked for me when i had the phone off and pressed and held down(power button + volume down button+ action button {middle button} + reset) just incase someone else has probems with it not workin.......try that.
hard...but twhen you have it sussed...its easy
must be if i can do it
I found out that if you push a direction while trying to press the enter button it doesn t work.... took me a while to figure out what i was doing wrong althought it doesn t seem so hard
Read this doc:
HTC_Touch_Diamond_Hard&Soft Reset_CG.pdf

I did some testing on my Diamond, and despite the documentation, this worked to hard-reset my phone; however, the POWER button must be pushed down LAST. Otherwise you'll simply turn the phone on.
This is the order:
Code:
volume down button + action button {middle button} + power button + reset
Once you have all buttons pressed, hit the reset button with your stylus and in seconds the hard-reset screen will display.
Have done this several times to confirm (CDMA).
Cheers.
TRied all but finally got it...
power button not needed to actually do the H.Reset, actually you need to press power to make device go in stanby & then press vol down + middle button & then press the reset & leave it... keep holding vol down & middle till the message appears...

Hi
I've bougt a HTC Touch Diamond from a friend. He left all his Contacts, pictures on the phone, so i want to Hardreset my Device.
I pressed the Volume-Down and the Enter button and then the Reset button. Release it and be pressing the other 2 Buttons.
Nothing happen....
I tried to push only the Reset button (soft reset?) but the device do nothing.
Is my Reset button defect?

Probrably. Hitting the reset button should shutdown your device in the same second. So it will vibrate and show the boot screen.
If you simple press the reset button and dont see nothing... well...
I've found a way:
I have to start the device and pressing the 2 buttons at the same time. Then the HTC displays the Reset screen without pressing the Reset button... crazy, but it works...
You found your way! ;-)
my phone is die.i want to up rom my phone but bootloader not ok.
any solution?
thank
hold the vol down button and then hold the power on button (the red end key) it will boot to the tri color screen
is there something wrong why mine won't go to bootloader.
I have tried all combinations of volume (up and down) (holding it in) (after soft reset) (believe it even after hard reset then HSPL) holding the power (RED button on the further most botom left side of the phone) at the same time for up to a minute... all it does is go to the normal power off options. what else should i do...

With power off, hold the down volume button and end key until it starts up in the bootloader screen.
Can't clear storage. The button is "greyed out." Any suggestions ??
Sorry .. Found an answer to my question .. It worked. This is what I did.
Hard resetting the Nexus One with the Hard button factory data reset. (volume down and power button) The device must be powered OFF to perform this reset. If the device is on, turn it off. (If the device is not responsive and does not turn off, remove the battery and re-insert it.)
While holding down the volume button on the side of the N1, press the power button briefly while maintaining the volume button pressed in for around 5-10 seconds.
You should be presented with a menu that allows for: Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock. You can release the volume button at this time.
Select Clear storage with the volume button up and down, then press and release the power button to make the selection.It will ask you to confirm this decision. Press the yes button using the volume up.
Hi my volume button down is broken and everytime it boots it's in safemode.
Whenever trying to access recovery it normally boots up when buttons are pressed.
Booting into download mode freezes it, I have to do a hard reboot by pressing all the buttons.
Volume/power button work fine when in use.
I've opened up my phone to disconnect my volume button it stills boots up in safemode.
I've tried 2 new roms still in safemode.
Hello brother,
Even you flash 2 new roms still booting up safe mode, bad seen
i feel your volume down button was keep pressed maybe,,,,,maybe (it should be b coz of dust or something else).
to be confirm is that your volume button broken or pressed follow the steps below
1. switch on your mobile release the power key and Press again the power key and wait till finish the boot, (if the device get restarted it means we can confirm your volume down button was pressed & hold)
2. press home button & power button check if the device is going to download mode ( if you stuck press power button u will get exit)
how ever try to clean the volume down button inside and pull slightly. after turn on your mobile.
if your damn sure volume button was broken not working at all, then lets think about it
