Holding power button in until reboot?

Whats the question?

For me??

OK, the article linked gives correct instructions for a soft reset...

hold the Power button for 10 to 20 seconds.

but shows an accompanying pic of the phone with the Home Button circled in red........

the question is.........Why??

I know, pedantic much, but if someone holds the Home Button for 20 secs, or 20 mins, or 20 hours, there will be no soft reset. ;)
 
Ah ok. There's loads of this about. I'm sure there's only one picture if the s3 with the home button circled and everyone uses it regardless of which button they meansl. I've also seen it called menu ;)
 
Danny do i remember u from the Blade forum mate?
Im pretty sure i do :thumbup:

That's me OK mate.....:D

AKA irishpancake on XDA, and other places!!!

My son still has that Blade....but he is a lazy sod, and still has the ROM I put on it when I gave it to him........I think it was Fish & Chips, or summtin!!

what a machine that was.....

I have moved on to this beast, after having been ill again, the Big one struck for a second time......:puke:

in recovery now, waiting for results....D
 
Well im happily using Neat Rom lite (very touchwizz) and Siyah kernel (clockable and sooo nice at 1.6ghz yet sooo efficient (and useable) at 500mhz)
Id defo recommend flashing Siyah (youre in UK if im right?)
Lol my now wife ended up with my Blade running Swedish Spring and overclocked, broke it n got a *cough* blackberry!
Now she has a Galaxy Ace (800mhz single core) and ive told her how well supported and hackable it is but if she wants to mod it, she can do the research herself :)
Im sorry to hear bout the other thing mate n i wish u the best :(
Nice to see an ex Zte man in this forum.

I was gonna go with Foxhound, and the Siyah kernel.....

I think Siyah supports this!!

Sorry for going off topic, it's good to meet old friends!!
