Instructions for reset options for Sprint Palm Treo 800w

Soft reset:

A soft reset is similar to restarting a computer. If your Treo is not responding or you have trouble synchronizing with your computer, a soft reset may help.

  1. If your Treo responds to key presses, press and hold Power/End to turn off your phone.
  2. If the screen display is on, press Power/End to turn off the screen.
  3. Remove the battery from your Treo, and then reinsert it. The reset begins when you insert the battery back.
  4. Wait for the progress bar on the Palm logo screen to fill and the Windows Mobile screen to transition to the Today screen before continuing to use your Treo. (Be patient, this may take a few minutes.)

Hard reset:

A hard reset erases all personal information, such as appointments, contacts, and tasks, as well as programs you have added, such as third-party software, on your Treo. Never do a hard reset without first trying a soft reset.

If possible, synchronize your device with your computer so that your device applications
and info can be restored by synchronizing again after you perform the hard reset.

  1. Remove the battery from your Treo.
  2. Press and hold Power/End while reinserting the battery.
  3. When the Palm logo screen appears and the progress bar begins to fill, release Power/End .
    When the “Erase all data?” prompt appears, press Up to confirm the hard reset.
    Wait for the progress bar on the Palm logo screen to fill again and for the Windows Mobile screen to appear.
    Follow the onscreen instructions to align the screen before continuing to use your Treo.
