Oh and NO!!! you do not have to turn off your phone first, which I have read many places. I don't know if this works on any other touch pros but I confirm working on my Sprint one.

1. Hold down Power Button (on Top), Volume down Button, and the Center keypad button (black circle on front).
2. While holding all three buttons, place your stylus in the soft reset hole and keep it pressed down in there, until the hard reset screen comes on.

EDIT:: Just tried it again, you don't need to hold the soft reset button in just press it.

There is nothing else, just two steps. Works every time for me, though it is kind of challenging. I usually hold the stylus with my teeth. lol enjoy

Hope this clears this issue up, they even have it wrong on the HTCWiki... Sad..

Ensure you are not plugged into USB or this never works!
