Resetting your Treo
Performing a 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. Press the Battery Door Release button and slide the battery door downward
to remove it from your Treo.
2. Use the stylus tip to gently press the reset button on the back of your Treo.
Performing a system reset
A system reset, also called a safe or warm reset, tells your Treo to stop what it’s doing
and start over again without loading any system extras. If your Treo loops or freezes
during a soft reset, a system reset may help. Performing a system reset allows you
to get out of an endless loop in order to uninstall a third-party application causing
the looping.
If you need to perform a
system reset and disable
conflicting applications,
always end the process
with a soft reset. This
returns your Treo to normal
operation.
