Solved: No Hard Reset

I have an i910 activated 17 Feb. After running WMWifiCleaner to remove remnants of WMWifiRouter it will no longer Hard Reset. After a couple of hours on the phone with Customer Service and Tech Support they sent a replacement received last night 22 Apr.

Both my phone and the replacement (FRU) will not Hard Reset via Call/End/Reset buttons. They merely boot back to WM6.1. They apparently do not recognize that Call and End buttons are held down when reset is pressed. Settings/System Hard Reset works on my phone; it doesn't on the FRU (unknown Device Lock Code).

My phone used to Hard Reset every time I asked it to. Before I call Tech Support again, has anyone else run into this problem?

BTW, I do know how to Hard Reset.

EDIT: Solution is to press only the outside edges (ends) of the Call/End buttons. Pressing the middle of the buttons will flex the case and cause the center Navigation button to also make contact, negating the call for a Hard Reset.

Thanks to dwallersv at Modaco for the correct way to push buttons.

Ted
