Erase data and reset your smartphone

If restarting your smartphone does not solve the problem of application freezes, you may need to reset the smartphone. A reset deletes some or all information from your smartphone (depending on the type of reset you select). After a reset, you must follow the prompts to sign in to your HP webOS Account again before you can use your smartphone.

IMPORTANT If possible, do a manual backup of your HP webOS Account data before resetting your smartphone (see Manually back up information to your HP webOS Account). After you sign in to your HP webOS Account again, any backed-up information is restored (see What information is backed up?).
