Resetting Your Handheld

Resetting Your Handheld

Performing a soft reset

If your handheld is not responding, you can perform a soft reset to restart 
it. A soft reset does not affect your data.

Performing a hard reset

A hard reset erases all data and third-party software on your handheld. 
Never perform a hard reset unless a soft reset doesn’t fix the problem. You 
can restore previously synchronized data with the next HotSync operation.
1. While pressing the power button, use the reset tool (or the tip of a paper 

clip) to gently press the reset button.

2. Release the power button.

3. When the warning appears press the top scroll button.

Use the reset tool 
to gently press the 

reset button

Unscrew the stylus tip 

to access the reset tool
