216 Managing Your Device

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.

Important If Encrypt files placed on storage cards is or was enabled before, then

backup all files from the storage card before using Clear Storage, hard

reset or updating the ROM system software. Otherwise you will no longer

be able to access the encrypted files on the storage card. Use ActiveSync

or Windows Mobile Device Center to transfer files between your storage

card and computer. After the procedure, copy your files back to the

storage card.
