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.
1.
Press the Battery Door Release button and slide the battery door downward to
remove it from your Treo.
2. While pressing and holding Up
, use the tip of the stylus to gently press the
reset button on the back of your Treo.
3. When the Palm Powered logo appears, release Up
.
4. Delete the third-party application that you suspect is causing the problem.
5. Perform a soft reset. (The wireless features of your device are not available
until you complete this step.)
Hard Reset
A hard reset erases all information and third-party software on your Treo. Never
perform a hard reset without first trying a soft and system reset. You can restore
previously synchronized information the next time you synchronize.
A hard reset can tell you whether a problem stems from your Treo or an
application installed on it. If you do not experience the problem after you perform
a hard reset, the problem may be related to software you installed. See “Third-Party
