How to Hard Reset — Siemens SX66
The Siemens SX66 is a 2004 Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 SE PocketPC device with 128MB and 128MB internal storage. It features a 3.5", TFT resistive touchscreen, 65K colors, 240.0x320.0 display and is available in Silver.
The SX66 is equipped with a Removable Li-Ion battery. The device uses a Mini-SIM configuration. It weighs 210 g.
Hard Reset on the Siemens SX66 works differently than it does on Android, since this platform uses its own menus and terminology. Follow the steps below, written specifically for this device rather than adapted from Android instructions.
On this device this is just a forced restart/power-cycle — it does not erase data by itself. See Factory Reset for the data-erasing option.
Windows Mobile devices generally don't have a hardware button combination that wipes data the way Android's Recovery Mode does
The closest equivalent is the in-menu Factory Reset described in the Factory Reset guide below
If the device is completely frozen and won't respond to the Factory Reset menu, remove the battery for 30 seconds (if removable) to force a restart, then try again
Exact steps vary by exact model and firmware version — check the printed manual or the manufacturer's support site if these don't match your device
