Welcome to ITBits you brand new HTC EVO users!  I’ve set up this new category for any EVO tips and tricks that I may come across.

Here is the first…

In the event that you need to (Gasp!) reset your EVO 4G to factory settings, here is how you do it!

  1. Turn the power off. If your HTC EVO 4G is frozen, pull the battery out and reinsert it
  2. Hold the Volume Down button
  3. Press and release the Power button
  4. You are now presented with a menu that allows for Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock
  5. Select Clear Storage by pressing the Volume Down button
  6. Press and release the Power button
  7. Now simply confirm your decision: Volume Up for YES and Volume Down for NO

Note, this process will delete *ALL* data on the EVO, save the data on the SD Card.
