234 Maintaining Your Phone

To perform a soft reset:

1.

Unscrew the tip of the stylus to access the reset tool.

2.

Use the reset tool to gently press the reset button inside the hole on
the back panel of your phone.

Tip:

You can also use the tip of an unfolded paper clip (or similar object

without a sharp tip).

Performing a warm (or safe) reset

A warm (or safe) reset bypasses system extensions on your phone, such as
HackMaster hacks or system patches. Performing a warm reset enables
you to uninstall a third-party application that may be causing a
problem.

To perform a warm (or safe) reset:

1.

Press and hold the top scroll button on the front panel of your phone.

2.

While holding down the top scroll button, use the reset tool (or
similar object without a sharp tip) to gently press the reset button.

3.

When the system screen appears, release the top scroll button.
