A hard reset of your HTC Wizard can be compared with a complete new install of the Operating System. Be aware that all your data and installed software will be erased by performing a hard reset, so make sure you have backups available before performing a hard reset.

Again, there are two methods available to perform a hard reset of your HTC Wizard. The first method is the easiest, but seems to be the least known method:

* Open the Start menu
* Select Settings
* Select the tab System
* Select Clear Storage
* You will now be prompted with a warning about the consequences of a hard reset, and will be asked to copy a word into a form and to confirm by pressing the left Soft Button


The first method is only availalbe when your HTC Wizard is functioning correctly. If that is not the case, a second method using only hardware buttons is available:

* Press and hold both the Comm Mannager Button and the Voice Command Button
* While keeping those two buttons pressed, press the Reset Button with your stylus
* After about a second you will be prompted for confirmation. Press the Talk Button to confirm

This method is tested and works on Qtek 9100, I-mate K-JAM, MDA Vario, Orange SPV M3000, O2 XDA Mini S, Dopod 838, Cingular 8125.
