Getting to Know Your HP iPAQ Mobile Messenger 1–7
Performing a Hard Reset
Perform a hard reset (also known as a full reset) when you want to clear
all settings, programs, and data from RAM.
CAUTION: If you perform a hard reset, your HP iPAQ returns to its default
settings and loses all information that is not recorded in ROM or iPAQ
File Store.
To perform a hard reset:
1.
Press and hold down the Power button.
2. While holding the Power button, use the stylus to lightly press the
recessed Reset button on the bottom of the HP iPAQ for about
five seconds.
3. The HP iPAQ screen fades and the device resets. Once the device
resets and the screen comes back on, release the Power button
and remove the stylus from the Reset button.
Aligning the Screen
When the HP iPAQ is turned on for the first time, you are guided through
a screen alignment process. You must realign your screen if:
•
The HP iPAQ does not respond accurately to your taps.
• You perform a hard reset of your HP iPAQ.
To realign the HP iPAQ screen:
1.
From the Start menu, tap Settings > System tab >
Screen icon.
