Does anyone know how to completely delete everything??
 

Because of financial problems, Im forced to sell my new 700wx. Does anyone know how to completely delete everything on it as to make it new out of the box? I want to reset everything to factory defaults. Thanks everyone!
Danny

i dont own a 700, but i assume its in the manual...look in there under "hard reset" or somebody that owns one will tell you here in a few minutes

Go to reset, punch in your MSL number and the phone does a master reset of the timers, data log, etc (i'm pretty sure)

I think he wants to delete personal information too (contacts, etc.). Go http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBC...ernal2001#hard find out how to perform a hard reset.

This will pretty much return the phone to how it was out of the box.

EDIT: I give up, the URL tags don't want to work with me.

Yes, it should do that as well. It's a master reset

Performing a Hard Reset
A hard reset erases all personal information, such as appointments, contacts, and
tasks, as well as programs you have added, such as third-party software on your
smart device. Never do a hard reset without first trying a soft reset. You can
restore previously synchronized information the next time you sync.
Review the following important information before performing a hard reset:
 Synchronize to restore your Outlook data, such as Outlook email, Calendar,
Contacts, Notes, and Tasks. You can use a backup and restore solution (make
sure it?s an application that?s approved by Palm) to restore configurations and
preferences such as speed-dials, SMS entries, call log information, and
personal settings.
 Some third-party applications do not create a backup on your computer when
you synchronize. If you do a hard reset, you may lose information in these
applications and you need to reinstall the application on your device after the
hard reset. Please contact the developer to find out if your information is
backed up during synchronization.
 When you synchronize after a hard reset, the source folder in My Documents
changes from Treo My Documents to WM_your name.
 Your device might not re-establish a Sprint PCS Vision session after a hard
reset. To manually establish a new Sprint PCS Vision session, open the Web
browser to access a Web site.
Tip: You can also do a soft reset by unplugging your device from a power
source (if connected) and then removing the battery and reinserting it.


322 Section 7A: Help
A hard reset can tell you whether a problem stems from your smart device or
from an application installed on it. If you do not experience the problem after you
perform a hard reset, the problem may be related to software you installed. See
?Third-Party Applications? on page 350 for suggestions on diagnosing third-party
software issues.
1. Use one hand to press the Battery Door Release and use the other hand to
slide the battery door downward to remove it from your smart device.
2. If the screen is off, press Power/End to wake up the screen.
3. While pressing and holding Power/End , use the tip of the stylus to
gently press and hold the reset button on the back of your smart device.
4. Continue pressing and holding both buttons until the ?Erase all data??
prompt appears.
5. Press Up to confirm the hard reset.
6. Wait for the progress bar on the Treo logo screen to fill before continuing to
use your smart device.
7. (Optional) Sync your smart device with your computer to restore your
previously synchronized information. (Connect your smart device to your
computer, press Menu (right softkey), and then select Programs >
ActiveSync > Sync. If you use a backup utility, you may also need to restore a
backup to recover additional information and settings.)

Thats it. Hope that helps

I did a hard reset just as it was outlined above. I tried to sync my 700wx to restore my Contacts and task. My Sync folder vanished from my desktop. I changed my phones name to match the sync folder but every time i connect the phone to my pc i get a outlook wizard prompt.

I've read in some post on here that after you hard reset your device that you should then load it up with programs, etc. until the devices memory is completely full. Do another hard reset and then repeat the entire process at least 3 times. This should clear out a lot of stuff.

Late,
Coz

If that^ agenda is performed, what would it accomplish?? Just curious as to what your point is by doing that?
