128 Managing Your Device
Hard reset
You can also perform a hard reset (also known as a full reset). A hard reset should be performed only if a
normal reset does not solve a system problem. After a hard reset, the device is restored to its default settings
- the way it was when you first purchased it and turned it on. Any programs you installed, data you entered,
and settings you customized on your device will be lost. Only Windows Mobile software and other pre-
installed programs will remain.
To perform a hard reset
1. Press and hold the TALK and END buttons, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET
button at the bottom of your device.
2. Release the stylus, but continue pressing the TALK and END buttons until you see the following
message on the screen:
This operation will delete
all your personal data,
and reset all settings to
the manufacturer default
settings. Press ENTER to
restore manufacturer
defaults, or press Camera
button to cancel.
3. Release the TALK and END buttons, and then press ENTER on your device.
Warning! Your device will be set back to factory default settings. Please ensure any additional installed programs and/
or user data have been backed up before a hard reset is performed.
Clear Storage
Another way of clearing the device storage and reset all settings back to factory default settings is to use the
Clear Storage feature. You will lose all your data and files on the device storage when you use Clear Storage,
so make sure to do a backup first.
1. Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Clear Storage.
2. Enter “1234” then tap Yes.
12.4 Managing Memory
To see how much memory is available for use, tap Start > Settings > System tab > Memory. On the Main
tab, the amount of memory allocated to file and data storage versus program storage is displayed, as well as
the amount of memory in use versus the available memory.
To see available storage card memory, tap Start > Settings > System tab > Memory > Storage Card tab.
If your device is running low on memory, try the following to free memory on your device:
• Close programs you are not currently using.
• Move e-mail attachments to a storage card.
• Move files to a storage card. Tap Start > Programs > File Explorer. Tap and hold the file, and tap Cut.
Browse to the storage card folder and tap Menu > Edit > Paste.
• Delete unnecessary files. Tap Start > Programs > File Explorer. Tap and hold the file, and tap Delete.
• Delete large files. To find your largest files, tap Start > Programs > Search. In the Type list, tap Larger
than 64 KB, and tap Search.
• In Internet Explorer Mobile, delete temporary Internet files and clear history information. For more
information, see “Internet Explorer® Mobile” in Chapter 10.
• Remove programs you no longer use.
• Reset your device.
