Re: soft reset

Vol Up+Vol Dn+Power for 5 seconds worked for me. Did it from the lock screen so I wouldn't accidentally adjust my volume... lol

Re: soft reset

Yes this does work, but clicking on an icon is much easier and faster.

Hold both volume buttons, then hold power button for 5+ seconds. Just tried it and it looks like a soft reset to me; all my apps and settings are still there.
Somebody else want to try and report back?

Re: soft reset

I'm using "Fast Reboot" it doesn't actually reboot the phone it just dumps everything out of memory then reloads the apps it would load if you rebooted. It works well haven't had issues with alarms not working and things like others have reported by using task managers.

This was the only thing I could do to get my phone to respond. I see a lot of people have trouble with the phone not turning on.
