i have a 6900 thats been soft reset via the styli in the hole method i hate to think how many times and its fine, im just saying on a pro, total candy. nothing wrong with that though, just dont think as a usable app, not needed. op, i think your work is very nice, i use the app. on my diamond.

Is there any way to actually turn the device off with psshutxp? Anyway to make the "shut down" option actually power down the device? That would be nice

noob alert!

So the little button by the usb port simply soft resets the phone? It doesn't delete anything?

I never used it or gave it much thought. I figured something like that was used to do more than a soft reset. I've never had to hard reset my phone or anything, so i mean i dunno lol

better to ask, ithought you were kidding. i soft reset soooooo much with all the taskbar changes i make.

Since the only thing that actually works for PSShutXP is the soft rest, I am now using a lighter app that has only that option.

Shutdown does nothing and god help anyone who tries to use the hard reset function in this psshutxp, it royally screwed my diamond up to the point of reflashing.

Here is the cab;

I have never seen or heard of a device failing because of the soft reset button becoming damaged. My PPC-6700 & PPC-6800 work perfectly, and those got a soft reset every single day.

Thanks to the OP for posting the .gif's, I'm actually using them now. I like it because it's a speed thing. By the time you reach for the stylus, I'm already resetting the phone. Plus I hate to see any of my co-workers looking at me while I'm sticking it to my phone. LOL!
