Soft reset on HTC HD2

Performing a Soft Reset

Perform a soft (normal) reset to clear all active program memory and shut down all active programs. This is useful when your phone is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing properly. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work is lost.

1. Hold your phone securely, with the front facing down.
2. With your thumb or finger, open the back cover by lifting up from the left side of the cover.
   
3. The RESET button is located at the bottom left below the battery compartment and SIM card slot. Use a small object with an unsharp, pointed tip such as a toothpick to press the RESET button.
   Your phone restarts and displays the Home screen.
4. To replace the back cover, secure the right side of the back cover first and then press the cover down into place.
