Performing a hard reset, all settings, records and programs stored in the Pda
(except the ones stored in Rom) will be erased.
After a Hard Reset formats, preferences, and other settings will be restored
to the factory default settings.
You can restore any previous data if you got a Backup of your device before
the hard reset otherwise you will need to reinstall any third-party applications.
If you are hard resetting your device owing to some hard problem i suggest
to restores installed applications without using the backup if you are not sure
that backup data do not include the problem you wish to solve also.
In few words a hard reset allows you to start everything over from scratch.
WARNING: for WM 5.0 users (wrongly called also as WM 2005)
The new operative system ******s Mobile 5.0 totally modified the use and the construction of the
internal memory of the PDA. For all the models that use this new O.S. the Ram is used only as the
operative memory while the users' programs before loaded into the same kind of memory are now
stored in Rom (or FRom, FlashRom etc) that is working now as an HD and is no longer subject to
the lost of data following a full discharge of battery.
What said above causes a possible different execution of the usual HardReset operation.
We can note that, while the soft reset is still unchanged, for the classic Hard Reset, that resumes
the original default setting, has been added new processes with different name and result quite
different from the hard reset as usually known.
We may say something like the Warm reset of Palm already used.
So for any new pda will be added the new procedure if any (the one that is different from the
classic Hard Reset ) and it will be shown by a different colour.
ATTENTION: The soft reset requires only to push a button and the only
difference is the place where this button is located.
