Vodafone VPA IV soft reset
Resetting Your Pocket PC Phone

Occasionally you may need to reset your Pocket PC Phone. A normal (or soft) reset of your device clears all active program memory and
shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when the device is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A
soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some programs. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work will
be lost.

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 the device will be lost. Only Windows Mobile software
and other pre-installed programs will remain.

To perform a soft reset

• Use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button on the left side of your device.
The device restarts and displays the Today screen.

Vodafone VPA IV hard reset

To perform a hard reset

• Press and hold both SOFT KEYS shown enclosed by circles in the picture below. Keep these keys pressed, and at the same
time, use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button on the left side of your device. Press either 0 to restore to factory
default or X to exit the hard reset process.

Resetting Your Vodafone v1620/ VPA III Pocket PC Phone

However, a full reset turns the battery off, returns the device to its original factory settings, and deletes all programs, files, contacts and other information you have saved to the device. Therefore, it is extremely important to back up data to a storage card or your computer on a regular basis in the event that a full reset has to be performed.
To perform a soft reset
If your Pocket PC Phone responds slowly, stops responding, or freezes, you can soft reset it. A soft reset causes the Pocket PC Phone to restart and re-adjust memory allocation. Unsaved data in any opened applications may be lost. Use the stylus to press and hold the Reset button, as shown below.

To perform a T-Mobile Compact full reset

A full device reset clears memory, deletes all data and restores the Pocket PC Phone to its default settings.

Press and hold the power button, and then use the stylus to press the soft reset button at the same time. Be sure you have backed up all your data in a SD card or on your PC before performing a full reset.

T-Mobile MDA Vario II hard reset

Before you buy a new cell phone or new tablet, please try the following procedure to repair your device. First charge your battery, backup your important data if possible and in most cases take out SIM and SD card. It is impossible to recover your data after doing a hard reset, so online backup is always important. For all of your data, a backup should be done on an external device, hard drive, raid system or media.

Resetting Your Pocket PC Phone

Occasionally, you may need to reset your device. A normal (or soft) reset of your device clears all active program memory and shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when your device is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some programs. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work will be lost. 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 soft reset

• Use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button onthe bottom of your device. Your device restarts and displays the Today screen.

To perform a hard reset

Press and hold the Left SOFT KEY and the Right SOFT KEY, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the bottom of 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.
