In all cases, I first powered the phone OFF and then completed these steps at first boot.

How to get to the screen to restore to hardware defaults:
1) Press and hold D-Pad, and then press and hold Reset.
2) Once the screen comes up, press Volume Up to restore factory defaults.
You forgot a couple things...I've been where you are...most references out there miss one key thing.

I out line it here:

But...the short answer is:

To perform a hard reset you need some very nimble fingers and some luck...

1. Power should be off (may not be required).
2. Hold ALL these down at once
a. Volume Down
b. Enter Key (center d-pad).
c. Power Button.
3. Press the reset button (bottom of device).

You'll get a message giving you the option.
Volume Down - Hard Reset
Volume Up - Cancel
