Update: Hard-reset your Pro when you get it (conspiracy?)
Okay, basically, I think the phones are delivered in a non hard-resetted mode.
I just picked up a replacement today, and when the Best Buy representative pulled it out of the pretty box, and hit power, it only took about 5 seconds to get to the screen calibration. I was really confused, because I had my OLD Pro sitting on the desk that I had hard-reset about two minutes before she pulled open the new box, and it STILL had not got to this point. Case in hand, I strongly recommend that you hard reset your phone once, twice, or even three times after you purchase it. You don't have to worry about re-activating, because that happens automatically. What it CAN fix: - SOME earpiece/speakerphone issues - Keyboard lag - Strange quirks, such as screen rotation issues, and other oddities... How to do it: Method 1: Start > Settings > System > Clear Storage > 1234 > OK Method 2: - Turn the phone (completely) off with the power button. - Push and hold the VOLUME DOWN button and the CENTER/OK button at the same time. - While holding those two buttons down, push and hold the POWER BUTTON until you see the hard reset screen. Follow directions. Method 3: - Hold VOLUME DOWN, and CENTER/OK. Reset with the stylus, then immediately start holding the POWER BUTTON. Method 3 is the fastest/easiest way I have found. Thanks, Steven |
Re: PSA: Hard-reset your Pro when you get it
One of the first things I did after I got mine from best buy.
I wonder if that's why I haven't been experiencing any of the issues other people have. At any rate, the only reason I DID hard reset is because the weather wasn't working and I figured a hard reset would fix it. |

I haven't had any of these problems, honestly.

Re: PSA: Hard-reset your Pro when you get it
I have not done a hard reset and I have had none of those issues.
On a side note I have had it since last thursday when best buy started selling it. |
