SPB Restore - Do It Without Hard Reset?

I've generally only done a Restore with SPB Backup after a Hard Reset when things really got messed up. It's a bit of a hassle, because I have to re-activate the phone, and there's always a couple of things that don't get restored correctly (e.g. GPS Location doesn't seem to get turned back on correctly).

This is probably something I should know, but is it advisable to do an SPB Restore without doing a Hard Reset?

Out of nowhere, my Verizon TP2 become sluggish, so I did a soft-reset, but it won't go past the HTC screen, and never shows the "loading TF3D" message as it should. I've taken out the battery and SIM and tried again, but no dice. This happened once before, and I have no idea why. It booted fine this morning, just like when it happened previously, but then decided it won't boot properly.

I've read of others having similar problems, but haven't seen any solution. I'm tempted to just try a simple Restore using a Backup from last night or the night before, without a Hard Reset, but wasn't sure if this would complicate things, create duplicate entries, or create other unwelcome issues.

And if anybody has a clue why TF3D all of a sudden refuses to load, when no registry entries have been changed, no new programs installed, no new configuration changes, etc. then I'm all ears.

Thanks.
