5.6 Resetting Your Dopod 818 Pro
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.
