I hope you liked my previous post on HTC Hero tip, and now here’s another trick that might come in handy someday when you end up messing with your phone.

There is no option in HTC Hero itself to hard reset it, but you follow this tip to bring your phone to factory default state.

How to Hard Reset HTC Hero

Alternatively, you can also do it by reinstalling the current firmware. But for users with the initial firmware can use this trick to hard reset.

• Switch off the phone.
• Now hold down the Home and Back keys.
• Press the Power button (call decline button) once while holding the Home and Back keys
• After a few seconds, you will see a message on the screen prompting you to press the Menu button to confirm the reset.
• Release all the buttons first, then press the Menu button to hard reset your HTC Hero.

I’m not sure if this trick works with other HTC Android handsets as well.
