My hard reset (pin hole below the memory card slot) appears to be not responding to an inserted stylus. Is it possible to hard reset another way?

Damn. Thanks.
Isn't that (used alone) the Soft reset?
& Settings\System\Clear Storage 1234 for wiping the phone back to factory settings? (hard reset)

Yes , but if you press and hold both soft keys, while doing a soft reset, your phone will hard reset.

I have put back a wrong backup ( a backup from before I flashed my Wizard ). Now after I do a reset it keeps hanging in the Windows Mobile screen and won't start...In fact if I do a hard reset it does the same...it won't let me install all over...
HELP!
Found the solution: Hard resetting is slightly different than mentioned in the manual: :!:

You have to hold down the buttons (comm. manager+voice command
) then insert the stylus... then remove the stylus wile still holding the buttons and wait a second. then let go of the buttons.. it will then ask you to hit send to hard reset.

Thank you so much!!!
So my brother was drunk and thought it would be cute to lock the phone. Now he cant remember the password and I can not hard reset. How can I hard reset my phone to get around the lock????
Perhaps force flash it through USB?
Or you can take out the battery, and during reboot, force it to hard reset ..
Another way is during reboot, force it to flash (as long as you have the SD with KAISIMG.nbh of the ROM at it's root).
Wish you luck.
I tried force flash spl and it wont connect via usb. I also have tried a hard reset by holding the two soft kets on the front of the phone and hit the reset button. I also tired the power, camera and reset button.
When you do a hard reset, it just stays locked or you get a soft reset?
Try shutting down by unplug the battery, then during boot up, do hard reset. It shouldn't load the lock yet ..
A hard reset will remove the password (I did the same thing on the first day of owning my Kaiser, set a password on inital start up, it customised it's self, rebooted and I could not get past the login )
Make sure you follow these instructions for Hard Reseting : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_Resets

Also, just so you know: a hard reset will delete your personal information that you have saved. If you don't want to delete your information, keep trying to break the code.

also please tell me when i do this reset my current stock rom (LB2) will be revereted to kl3 or i will be in lb2
i am noob
thanks
Soft reset is nothing just removing background application/process. As you just reboot your device.
Hard reset, wipe off your data, n will b just as out of box.
you can do with
1. setting - privacy - factory data reset (if you select format USB storage, then only data on USB storage will be wiped, as such no needed)
2.From recovery, Vol up + home + power - select wipe data
Hard reset won't revert back to previous ROM, it will same ROM which is you have right now. To revert back to old ROM, you need PC Odin.
dr ketan
