A hard reset is where you reformat your storage space, essentially wiping out everything and returning your device to its factory state.
Luckily since WM5 started using real storage instead of RAM, this won't happen by "accident" by taking out the battery anymore.



Funny, the folks on XDA claim its a matter of MB's with the new one. 2Mb's to be exact. Can anyone confirm the memory usage of this vs. the previous version?
I'm not going to install it if it sucks another 2mb!
I just read the thread over at XDA and it looks like only one person reporting having 2MB less ram after installing this. Before that, someone else reported that it uses a small amount of memory and most people are saying it's an improvement over version 1.5. I wouldn't go with just one person's experience saying that it uses 2MB of RAM. I highly doubt this program uses that much RAM. It's designed to help you keep RAM free so it would kinda defeat the purpose. Why not just install it and see how it works out for you? You can always uninstall and go back to the previous version.
