Socket Mobile SoMo 650 - Manual (Page 62)

Hard Reset
A hard reset is designed to clear all processor states, running programs, and user
data. It also drives the hardware reset line to the processor, thereby clearing all
system states, including the date and time. This reset should be used to remove the
operating system from a “hung” or “frozen” state because of a fatal program or
operating system error.
A hard reset will clear all user-installed settings, applications, and data from RAM
(Random Access Memory), but any applications or configurations saved in the SoMo
File Store will remain. It is useful for clearing some states that are not normally
cleared with a Soft Reset
To perform a hard reset:
1. Press and hold the Calendar and Contacts shortcut buttons on your SoMo 650.
2. While holding the two buttons, using the tip of your stylus, lightly press the Reset
button inside the hole on the bottom of your SoMo 650. Release the Calendar
and Contacts shortcut buttons.
Press the two shortcut buttons with the index and middle finger of one hand.
Hold the stylus in your other hand to press the reset button and then release.
3. A Socket Splash Screen will appear and disappear. Follow the onscreen
instructions.
