Problems with hardreset on Touch2 :-( - Touch2 General

A hardreset as described in the owners manual does not work ! Has anybody got an idea what to do ?
The reason why I want to make a HR is the following : after 2 weeks it happened, that sending an sms an error-msg pops up saying the "addressee is not known, sending anyway ?" This drives me crazy ! And I hope that a HR will solve this!
1. With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME UP and VOLUME
DOWN buttons, then press the END/POWER button shortly and release it. You
will then see this message on the screen.
This operation will delete all your personal data,and reset all settings to manufacturer
default.
Press Volume Up to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel.
2. Release the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
3. Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other
button to cancel the reset.

Using Clear Storage
If you can access the phone settings, you can use Clear Storage to reset your phone back to factory default settings.
1. Tap Start > Settings > System > Clear Storage.
2. Enter “1234” and then tap Yes.

hold camera and connection button (on the left of the device) keep pressed and then hit the soft reset button at the bottom of the device. keep the 2 side buttons pressed until a message pops up asking if you want to hard reset. press green call button to accept.
Alternative method: Go to :arrow: Setting > System > Clear Storage . I t will tell you to enter '1234' and then press 'YES'. It will hard reset you PDA.

Thats the correct answer, according to dioxda2 the 'clear storage' option does not do a hard reset and now that I tried, I know he is right.

Ladies and Gents,
Now that I have been playing with mine for the best part of 24hrs :-D I can confirm that the best way to do a hard reset is to not bother with the holding down of the volume keys and quickly hitting the on / off button - this didn't work for me ONCE!!
It is however possible if you select the CLEAR STORAGE option in the settings menu and key in 1234.
Works perfectly.
Good luck, and enjoy your HD

Hi,
I need to wipe my HD - it's going back and I'm getting a replacement (original has dead pixels).
Does the Clear Storage actually clear everything like a hard reset?
Also - does this wipe the SD card?
hard reset will not wipe your storage card. It will however wipe your device storage.
Clear storage will do exactly the same thing as a hard reset. It sends your device back to the time it came out of the box for the 1st time.
It leaves your mem card alone.
Cool - thanks for the prompt replies!
I suppose another solution would be to remove the SD card before wiping!
Hope the replacement is ok -then I can start putting my apps back!

Thanks Mate I have just tried it and It works perfectly. Although you have to be slight quick because the actual volume button are on the cover. You know what I mean.
EDIT: You can just turn off the phone press the volup and voldown button and press the power button it will go for hard reset. No need for opening back cover.

so, if clear storage is the same as hard reset, why do people still bother with the hard way of hard reset?

Clear Storage requies Windows Mobile to be running.
Hard reset provides the same function at a hardware level - i.e. you don't need Windows running...

If your phone does not reboot even after a hard reset I would try flashing a different rom. Would start by restoring stock rom first then using Dummies Guide top flash custom rom

How to perform a factory reset?

Hey people, Just started setting up my HTC HD2 when i came to the last page of the setup and pressed "finish" the device locked up and crashed :-(
Then when i put the phone back on none of the settings i had set worked and the setup option was no longer there it just went straight through to the UI.
What do i do to pretend it never happened as if im starting again?
Hard reset:
Hold "volume up + volume down and press soft reset button" (all together)
Soft reset button is under battery cover
With the HD2 switched off, press Volume down + Volume up and then briefly press send end key. The bootloader should appear.
To perform a clear storage.
1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap Security > Factory reset.
2. Enter “1234” and then tap Yes.
so which method is right? lol
both, one is via GUI (windows screen) the other is manual/mechanical way
