SPRINT TP2 + Drill Press + 1/16 Drill Bit = Soft Reset No Case Removal

I noticed the T-Mobile back case has a hole for the stylus to do a soft reset, but the Sprint does not ??WTF?

Now mine does

LOL, nice! I was thinking of doing this the other day when I had to reset my phone. I have a Verizon phone and its the same thing, no hole for reset. This is the perfect fix! I'm not doing mine with a drill press though, just a handheld cordless.

I was going to do this - I even bought a spare back in case I messed up then I got the Rhodium Keyboard remapper by Tarkim and used it to program FN + Enter to reboot the device. No need for a hole now I reset from the keyboard.

Obviously, some people aren't reading why one wants to drill a hole on the back cover...

But if phone locks up and becomes unresponisve so that wouldnt work how can you use soft reset?

I'm just askin. I use SPB and there is a soft reset option with it in the task manager. But when my phone is simply frozen/locked up, I have to resort to traditional soft resetting with the stylus.


Also, is that the actual name of the program? I'm interested in it now.
