Not familiar with that phone but try doing a search on here or the manufacurers site. Do you have the owners manual?

i will do that. thanx. i am sure xda developers will have the answer. somewhere.

I did a quick Metacrawler Search and came up with this:
How to hard reset the Qtek 9090
NOTE – Hard resetting your PDA will return it to a factory default state and all user
information will be erased.
1. Press and hold the power button
2. Using the stylus, press the reset switch (whilst still holding the power button) and
release it
3. Release the power button
The PDA will now undergo a hard reset.

thanx mate. i did hard reset it but still does the same thing. might be a hardware problem?

Yeah well figured it was worth a try. Makes no sense that its doing that. You should be able to upgrade the ROM to WM5 if you can find one for that phone. You'd really have to do some searching.

Hey I bet it's hardware problem.
If you upgrade to wm5, it won't hard reset.
But you will have to fix the clock/date settings every time you hit the green button.

Thank you.
the trick is timing. cannot hold the keys too long. i have to release the power key in 2-3 s.
Sorry but I do not figure it out. I have checked the manual but did not find anything. I have tried pushing both of the softkeys (the ones under the display, right?) and then the power button, for 1sec, 2secs, 3secs, but nothing worked. So how does it work?
Another point is the ClearVue suit. It won't install ?! Wrong device or something? Where can I chek for a new ROM? The one from the forum did not work an o² has not listed anything yet.
Greetings
I had trouble with similar issues and someone suggested that I should just update the firmware on my handset. Took me a while to locate it but i found they had updated firmware on the 'downloads' tab at http://www.timtechs.com/unlocked-o2-cosmo-prd150.html Is this a good idea or unnecessary? Im not sure, haven't tried it yet.

Plese Help.....Blocked at the WM6 welcome screen

Thanks in advance,
I'm using the TNT 2.0 rom for hy hermes......I've been using the rom for a while with no prob. Today, I had to do a soft reset...my hermes stockes at the WM6 home screen page and does not want to acces windows.....What should I do....
Thank you fo the help.
i'm using spl2.10
sounds like you might have to do a 'hard reset'.
this will reset your ppc back to the base TNT rom you installed, so you'll have to reload everything you've put on since.
to perform a hard reset, hold down both left and right soft keys at the same time and stick the stylus into the hole in the bottom (where you'd do a soft reset) all at the same time.
to help you find out which program might be causing you problems, it's a good idea to load them one at a time and soft reset after each install.
good luck!
it should be a 3rd party caused this, what did you install??
Thanks for the help,
I did a hard reset....by holding the green and the red ( on / of ) phone and the soft reset....nothing, I did not load any 3rd party software....
it loads the 1st TNT screen where we see the arabic words...then it turn to the WM6 welcome screen and it stays there.....does not want to load window.....
Thanks for the assistance
PS. it happend when I did a soft reset this morning.....I'm using TNT form almost 3 weeks now.

I've seen the same thing on my Hermes, nothing installed. After 5 or 6 reboots, it hangs and that is the ball game.
I'm sorry I cannot offer any more information than that
is this means that my Tytn is gone. ! ! !
Can't I bypass the WM6 welcome screen and enter a ' safe mode' so I can
re-flash it?
Thanks for your assistance
PS. It's true, I just remembered that 2 weeks ago, I installed Skype as a thrid party

Press both buttons above the green call and red hangup key poke your stylus to the reset hole. all together, and you will get a screen. look at the wiki please.
Or simply go to start>settings>system>clear storage>1234>ok.
Thank you you guys !

Soft reset in htc desire

Hello, someone can tell me how to do a soft reset to htc desire, there is some key combination or there is some software to do it?.
Thanks
keep the power button pressed for a longer time. a menu will be shown. select power down (phone will now shut down), press power button again. et voila! you have 'rebooted' your phone!
thank you very much but I do not work or do not
Any apps to do this ?

Uuhh.. What?
So is it at all possible to have an app that reboots the handset essentially?
There was an app on the market called quick boot I think, never used it myself but you could try that, although it may need root and the desire will probably be too new to work with it, so maybe one to keep an eye on.
Sorry for such a noob question, but the reply above, is that not simply turning the device.off and on again as opposed to rebooting, or carrying out a soft reset? Coming from an iPhone and wm before that, i was led to believe there was a difference. Removing the battery with the device on was a soft reset, rebooting the iPhone was also slightly different from turning it off and on again. ?
I would also like to know if we could do a soft reset without having to take back cover off and remove battery?
Thanks
I have to take back cover of my Desire to reset it. Turning off doesn't work in my case. Simply - last time I was waiting 15 minutes and it still displaying 'shutting down'. I can't shutdown my phone.
Hi, I guess you want to reset HTC Desire without taking it a part.
Check this video on youtube on how to do it.

I think you didn't catch what we are talkin about. Soft reset doesn't meen we would like to erase all data and revert back to factory settings.
My phone is not able to shut down even after one hour after pressing: power botton for a moment -> power off. Any clues?

Strange indeed soft reset works here fine but used it only a few times
Maybe a hard reset forces to reinstall the o/s correct and solves you're problem because it should work via the power button...
Do you get the pop-up menu with the different choices?

what the hell are you people talking about?
a soft reset is a way to restart the phone using an option in the phone, perhaps an app
so when there's the option to POWER OFF the phone, there is the option to RESTART the phone

I got the popup menu when I press power button for a while but when I press first option to shut down the phone - it does not shut down. Shuting down message displays for ages and nothing happens.

Sorry, I think I got it wrong. D-fens - what you have done is fine, taking out the battery, judging by htc website
htc.com/europe/howto.aspx?id=721&type=1&p_id=312
but I don't know why wouldn't it shut down with power button, it works fine with my.
I think I know what your trying to get at, the problem is in your phone, unmount your SD card, I suspect its faulty. This will I suspect work. Try it and tell us how you get on. I'm assuming switching the phone off and on again is the same as rebooting or soft reset on Android.
Lol mega fail answers. I think currently there is no way to soft reset your phone without going the long way of turning it off and turning it on again. Quite annoying I know, but you should not have to soft reset your phone much at all, if you do then there is a prob with software etc. I have only soft reset my phone maybe 2-3 times in the few weeks I have had it for.
But again I believe the question is:
Is there an app or some special way to soft reset the desire, without removing battery or without pressing and holding power button and selecting turn off, as both these methods simply turn the device off and are not actually resetting the device...
Use quickboot or root boot. I personally use root boot. Works fine.

Black Bar Screen Error

Hello,
So, I have had my M8 since around May and it's been perfectly fine up until July/August when I have two problems;
1. The first is that occasionally a black bar pops up on the phone and says hold the volume up and power button for 10 seconds to restart. I don't know why this keeps happening.
2. Secondly, when I'm using apps like Whatsapp and swyping on the keyboard, it'll just stop typing/go into the contacts profile/do other things with the phone when all I want to do is type.
Any ideas as to why? I asked HTC Support and they just said to clear the cache. I did that but to no avail.
Thanks,
Crazysah
using stock rom ? you can always try factory reset
Yes, am using stock. Always have been. Tried a soft reset and ever a hard reset.
It's this sort of thing: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/howto/465048.html - but it comes up occasionally and automatically in my case.
Nobody knows why this happens?

I was going to say maybe its a malfunction of the power button. But actually, if you hold the power button, the Phone Options (Power off, Airplane mode, Restart) dialogue appears first, and the Reset countdown appears a few seconds after that.
If this isn't happening for you, I suspect a software error or some sort.

Take no offence please, but 150 posts, and you don't know what a recovery is? Are you rooted? Do you have TWRP or CWM installed?

No, I know what recovery is, but how would that help exactly. I mean, I've already done factory reset, cleared cache, done all that customer support has told me to do besides give the phone in for repairs.

Sorry, my answer was a direct response to @PoweredTek 's reply
I really don't know the exact nature of your issue.
The black bar where and when?
Maybe a screen shot would help.
I would truly like to help you solve your problem.
Now that I realize the user who`s comments I was responding to (lol), please disregard my earlier reply.
I'm sure we can find a solution for you.

Like you know when you change the volume on your phone a black bar pops up? A bar like that pops up and says the phone will restart in ten seconds and then I just press the volume up button and it dissapears.
Like when you press the volume up + power button together, the bar that pops up? That comes automatically and often. I have no idea why.

I have no idea. It's very strange. Have you tried installing a different ROM?
Also, are you running a custom kernel perhaps?
