Let me see if I'm understanding what you're saying here.... Internet explorer opens when you push the power on/off button, no hardware or softkeys work, opening/closing apps, buttons work except the internet explorer button. You can't hard re-set because of the answer key. All phones can be re-set back to mfg. settings. Im not familiar with the I-Mate K-Jam, but if it has a re-set hole, it can be re-set. First go to start/settings/system tab/clear storage/1234/Yes... If you're unable to get there...hold the comm mgr. and voice record buttons at the same time stick stylus in re-set hole...screen should develop multi-colors with message to send. Push the green phone button to send to mfg., wait a little bit, you're device will start up again with all programs previously installed lost unless you backup everything before you do this. Everything on your SD card should be saved, and not lost. To be safe, remove the SD card and sim card before hard re-setting.

Is there a free or fairly cheap program that will soft reset this phone? I don't want to buy a program for $30 just for this one feature.
Its a PITA having to take the phone out of its case, open the card slot then press the button.
Thx..
Will a free program do you
Try PSShutXP - http://ppcsoft.narod.ru/english/ - it should do the job nicely!!
Mark.
or magic button which is also free
I decided on Magic button. It has a task management feature that I like. I can now get rid of another program and use this one to:
1) Soft Reset
2) Actually close programs
3) Have a task manager
Thanks

Wow. thanks for the advice and hints regarding this. I've installed it in my 750v with wm6 and it works fine. Now i can soft restart my device without the need to open the sd card cover. thanks!
here is the link to the Magic Button software:
http://www.trancreative.com/mb.aspx
magic button caused a problem with my WM6.
it caused the send button wont work to show the call log pop up menu. i had to hard reset the device to fix the problem because uninstalling it didnt solve the problem.
Quickmenu has a built in feature and also the ability to export the command to a shortcut. PHM tools also has a standalone reset file.
I use this one and its free.

WK taks does the trick and more
It is also a task manager, very customizable, has a reset function, and it is free.

Hey guys,
I'm clearly a newbie here, been so for sumtime trying to learn while looking for tweaks and solutions, and I've been trying not to post so that I don't stupidly ask answered questions but unfortunately I have a problem that I need urgent fix. I've tried to search but haven't found what I need.
So here it is:
When I receive calls, the caller id and number seemed to be crunched together and unreadable under 1 line instead of usual 3 or 4. So I cant see who is calling me or from which number. This is rather important for my business to decide who to ignore and who to address properly.
I hope somebody can help me fix this.
For added info, I have made few registry changes and the last ones involve changing soft keys 112 and 113, and also installing HTC action screen before this problem.
Thanks guys!
I've never heard of this problem occuring, but I would recommend you skip stright to it and hard reset your PDA.
Backup all your files by connecting your PDA to your computer and copying over all the files you want to backup.
To backup all your PIM data (appointments, contacts, messages, call logs, speed dials and tasks) use a program called PIM Backup - details of this program can be found on this thread - Click Here
To hard reset a HTC Polaris, insert your stylus into the softreset hole and press it whilst pressing the 'Windows' and 'OK' buttons. Let go of the buttons 1-2 seconds after taking out the stylus. The send button is the green pickup call button, which you will be required to press to confirm you want to go ahead with the hard reset.
Hope this helps
I was hoping I didn't need to resort to that but I guess if that's the quickest easiest way.
Thanks for your help!!
Btw, which buttons do you mean by "windows button" and "Ok button" ??
Sorry thats the only thing I can advise you to do, but at least you will know that its probably the second best thing to do (apart from re-flashing the ROM).
Regarding the 'Windows' and 'OK' buttons, it is my bad that you probably cannot find them - the XDA Orbit 2 has these buttons, but the HTC Polaris has the 'GPS' and 'Internet Explorer' buttons instead. Basically, they are the two buttons under the pickup and hangup buttons.
Attached is a picture which may help you further.
Hope you get this problem sorted out.
Anyone that could give me tips for an soft reset cab?
I now use xdashutdown but on my TD2 the symbols are tiny.
I am looking for a cab with soft reset and power off in the same app,not just soft reset.
And yes,i have been searching,but find nothing.
Hi,
Try to search A-A Reset
BYE, Bobo
Have tried that,but in TF3D i can not see A-A Reset in the program list.
I must use file explorer to look it up.Even if i install the A-A reset cab...
I want something i can put in the program menu,so i can reach it fast.
wouldn't it be easier to just press and hlod the power button ? It closes the phone and when you press it again, there you have it : a soft reset. (only one button, and no installation needed)
It's a .exe no .cab.
Look:

It 'true, but the virtual button preserves the hardware key, especially for those who make frequent soft reset.
And also you can schedule
Because my cooking activities I've to soft-reset lot.
One of the first programs I put in a ROM is ClearTemp.
Has a option to soft-reset.

forgot where i got this, but it is here from xda developers... but this is the best so far... real credit to whoever made this, sorry I forgot the creator hehehe.. I am just passing this must have app to you guys...
what I do, is change the right soft key of TF3D2 from camera to Shut Down using some registry tweak, so I can shut down real fast without using the hardware power button...
cheers
I use My Soft-reset and it works well on D2.
HD Tweak comes with a separate app 'HD Soft Reset'. It appears in your programs and can therefore be saved as a shortcut in Start/Programs separate from HD Tweak. I use it, and it works fine! Just another idea to add to those above.

I use wei's soft softreset (freeware)

Hi,
I needed to do a soft reset, and I'm not able to perform a soft reset has i used to do in my trinity the topaz has 2 holes in the back but the stilus doesn't fit in anyone of them.

how do you perform a soft reset, using a paper clip?
Remove the stylus
take the back off the topaz
where the stylus lies (bottom left of the back of device) there is a little red button
press that with the stylus and walahhh
Very tricky.

The Topaz is fiddly to soft reset. You don't want to keep opening the back to get to the soft reset red button. This is a pain. I use this programme. It is small, simple and does exactly what it says on the tin. Thanks to Raissak.
Maybe some will not agree wit me, but I don't find the usefulness of soft-resetting applications.
I mean if the phone is usable (i.e. not locked by an application, game etc.) you can soft-reset by pressing the Power button, tapping Yes and then press Power button again.
The problem comes when the phone gets locked by an application.
Here, I cannot soft-reset either using the Power button or using a soft-resetting application.
In this case you still have to open the back cover.

Very good point. However, I am constantly changing my programs which requires a lot of soft resetting. I am too lazy even to press the Power button and so want a small app to do this for me!!!!

Hey everyone!
Since a few days my left hardware button (the one for ok/close) stopped working. I can push it as hard and often as I want, it just doesnt work anymore. I tried WD40 spray etc but still no success.
Now I thought that I could just remap my camera button to do the work of the broken button. So I need to change the Short_Camera.lnk to a ok/close executable.
Is there an executable like that around? I do believe I saw sth like that before, but cant remember where. I searched the forum for quite a while now and didnt find anything.
Do you have an idea how to solve this problem? I just need to have a working ok/close button again. Doesnt matter if its the camera button or sth else.
The only problem is, that I cannot install apllications on the phone anymore because Im stuck at the PIN screen. I can't confirm my pin anymore because the ok-button isnt working. So I would need a registry/filesystem solution....
Thanks for your help!
Maybe install some remote acces utility (eg. Virtual CE). Then, unpack it, rename files, copy it to windows/autorun (or sth), then try to connect from PC and install AE Button Plus to remap the keyboard.
CeleCMD can help you,

But thanks alot!
