HTC Harrier hard reset

Resetting the HTC Harrier
You can perform a soft reset or a full reset. During a soft reset, the device is restarted and
only some data in opened programs may be lost. However, a full reset turns the battery off,
returns the device to its original factory settings, and deletes all programs, files, contacts and
other information you have saved to the device. Therefore, it is extremely important to back up
data to a storage card or your computer on a regular basis in the event that a full reset has to
be performed.

To perform a soft reset:

If your HTC Harrier responds slowly, stops responding, or freezes, you can soft reset it.
A soft reset causes the HTC Harrier to restart and re-adjust memory allocation. Unsaved
data in any opened applications may be lost. Use the stylus to press and hold the Reset button,
as shown bellow.
