Hi

Since SetCleanRebootFlag does not work with the new persistent
storage file system on WM 5.0 , and there's no way to programmatically do a
hard-reset, maybe there is a way to programmatically do a clean reset?

I know that clean reset is a new option in wm 5.0 and can be done with
hardware buttons (checked in hp ipaq today), but can it be done with code?


Many Thanks

AFAIK, there is not an API for performing a "clean boot"[1]. I believe
that this would be something that the hardware OEM would need to expose
(..and I wouldn't mind being corrected on this one).

No, you're right about that. The OEM for the device would have to export a
means to perform that sort of total reset.
