You have to take off the battery cover to get to the button

If taking off the battery cover gets annoying, just hold down the end key to shut the phone off and then hit it again to turn it on. As far as I know it performs a soft reset when powering up again.

Confirmed...this does perform a soft reset. And when you power it down this way, the only way to turn it back on is to hold the end key for several seconds again.

OF course if the phone is truly locked up then the power button won't work. I think they were being a bit optimistic by hiding the reset button. Win Mo is not that stable. No OS is really. I've had to soft reset it by the button at least 3x now. I am probably going to drill a pinhole thru the battery cover and my Seidio case when I get one for it, because taking off the case, just to soft reset is going to get old fast, if it doesn't break the case. A needle/paperclip sized hole would be sufficient

FOR VERIZON TP2 ONLY (Sprint & GSM have different settings)

Soft reset
Hold down the end key till the device powers off, then hit the end key to start your phone. You can also hit the reset button under the battery cover.

Hard reset
Hold down the end key till the device powers off, then hold volume down, send and end till you see blue text. Follow hard reset prompts.

Security
Hold down the end key till the device powers off, hold vol down and end to get to security(rainbow screen).

You can also hold the powerbutton untill power off shows up, then power it back up if u dont want to take the cover off. This what i resort to.
