Differences between hard, soft, and master resets

Resetting the BlackBerry device is a useful way to resolve issues
and is usually the first step in troubleshooting the BlackBerry
device. Knowing the differences between a hard, soft, double-soft,
and master reset ensures that the correct troubleshooting method
has been chosen.

Note: Backup all applications before resetting the BlackBerry device
using the Backup and Restore tool on the BlackBerry Desktop
Manager.

Performing a SOFT reset on the BlackBerry device
Performing a soft reset stops all applications on the BlackBerry
device by pressing the ALT+RIGHT SHIFT(CAP)+DELETE keys. A
soft reset re-establishes communication between the BlackBerry
device and the computer.

Note: This does not apply to the BlackBerry® Pearl™ smartphone.
Performing a DOUBLE-SOFT reset on the BlackBerry device
Performing a double-soft reset stops all applications on the
BlackBerry device and is nearly the equivalent of a hard reset.
Timing however is critical. Perform a soft reset by pressing the
ALT+RIGHT SHIFT(CAP)+DELETE keys. The screen will go blank.
When the screen is no longer black, press the ALT+RIGHT SHIFT
(CAP)+DELETE keys again. You should then see another blank
screen followed by an hour glass.

Note: This does not apply to the BlackBerry® Pearl™ smartphone.
Performing a HARD reset on the BlackBerry device
The first step in troubleshooting a network, software or hardware
error is often to perform a hard reset. With Java® based devices,
this is accomplished by removing the battery, while the
BlackBerry device is powered on. Hold the battery out for about
30 seconds, and replace. The BlackBerry device will reboot.

Note: A hard reset on a C++ based device is accomplished by
pressing the Reset button.
Note: To perform a hard reset on a RIM models 850, 857, 950, or
957 device, insert the end of a paperclip inside the small hole on
the back of the handheld.
Reasons to perform a hard reset
The following shows the possible reasons for performing a hard
reset on a BlackBerry device.
Network Issues
Handheld displays an X beside the coverage indicator.
Handheld displays GSM (Global System for Mobile
Communication) or lower case gprs (General Packet Radio Service)
as the network status indicator.
User is unable to send or receive messages on the handheld.
Software Issues
User receives an error code on the handheld.

Applications do not appear to be functioning correctly.
Desktop Manager is stuck at “working” status when the handheld
is connected.
Bluetooth is not detected.
Hardware Issues
Handheld display is hard to read. For example, the display shows
lines obscuring text.
Keypad is not functioning correctly. For example, keys do not
work, the trackwheel is not functioning correctly, or the handheld
does not turn on.

Performing a MASTER reset
The master reset feature is not available on the BlackBerry device
and is only applicable to selected manufacturer devices. A master
reset removes all user-installed applications and data, including
BlackBerry Connect software. For more about master resets,
contact your service provider
