Hard Reset (or Full Reset)
Performing a hard reset, all settings, records and programs stored in the Pda
(except the ones stored in Rom) will be erased.
After a Hard Reset formats, preferences, and other settings will be restored
to the factory default settings.
You can restore any previous data if you got a Backup of your device before
the hard reset otherwise you will need to reinstall any third-party applications.
If you are hard resetting your device owing to some hard problem i suggest
to restores installed applications without using the backup if you are not sure
that backup data do not include the problem you wish to solve also. In few words a hard reset allows you to start everything over from scratch.
Soft Reset
A soft reset tells to your device to stop what it is doing and to restart.
All records and programs stored in device will be retained after a soft reset.
After resetting, the usual start screen will appear.
Use a soft reset when your device seems to have crashed or hanged.
This type of reset is the first to try, before any others, to solve the above problems.
This kind of reset is, usually, well known by the user and really easy to perform.
