On Windows Mobile, how do I delete all my contacts in one shot? instead of one by one?

Question

I have a HP HW6945, I want to sell it so I would like to erase all my contact list, but I haven't find a way to do it one shot, and I don't want to do it one by one because I have almost 700 contacts. Please help

Answer 1

I am not familiar with your phone so I can only offer general assistance. Check your owners manual and find out how to do a master reset.  This should erase the whole device. (Be sure you back up anything you want to keep.)

Answer 2

What you want is a hard, or factory, reset.

HP iPAQ hw6900 Mobile Messenger series - Performing a Clean Reset

A clean reset clears all user-installed settings, programs, and data, and restores your HP iPAQ to factory settings.

To perform a clean reset and return your HP iPAQ to factory settings:

1. Press and hold the Answer/Send, Power, and End Call buttons.

2. While holding these buttons, use the stylus to lightly press the Reset button on the bottom of the HP iPAQ until the device restarts.

3. When the HP iPAQ restarts, release all of the buttons, and then remove the stylus from the Reset button.

The HP iPAQ restarts and powers on.
