First a WARNING: Running this diagnostic program will clear all applications and data in RAM. This mode is usually run when a hardware reset is required, thus you will loss any data in the Axim PDA anyway.
These steps MUST be done in sequence:
1. Turn on the Axim
2. Hold down the Power Button
3. Hold down the Record Button
4. Press the Reset-hole with the stylus just Once
5. Keep holding the Power and Record Button
The display will now show:
Welcome to Diagnostic Mode - This will clear the contents of your RAM during testing, including any apps and data. Caution: Do not interrupt the testing especially during the flash ROM testing. Interrupting the testing could render your system incapable of booting. Charge your battery before beginning the testing. To begin testing, press the [email] key. To cancel testing and reboot, press the [calendar] key.
Works on the X50 QVGA version too. Pogo - Mar 12 2009 4:35AM
