I have a sprint htc touch pro 2 and decided to turn it off by holding down the end key, but i see the loading icon and do not know what this function does.

I know how to turn it off now, but I am still curious about what it does if I hold down the end key.

Holding down the End key will activate a specific function. Default is activate/deactivate Airplane mode.

Go to Settings/Personal/Buttons/End Key to reset the specific function you want....

I went to settings/ personalize ( can't see personal) but cannot find the word buttons in the list. And yeah I think it is set to airplane mode.

Go to device Settings, not Sense UI Settings...

I am new to this so I do not really know how to go to device settings. Where is device settings and where is sense UI settings?

I click on the logo on the top right corner and from there go to settings.

I take it you are using Sprint 6.5 ROM and using Sense UI?

Iam not using that ROM, but if you scroll the Tabs in Sense UI all the way to the right to Settings, and select All Settings on the lower left, or press the Windows button next to the Phone Send button to bring down the Start Menu, or tap the Start button on the top left, you should see Settings on the bottom of the Start Menu.

Select it to go to device Settings. Then follow what I said in my first reply to select something different from that menu.....
