Re: To protect hard reset

Force your application to be installed on a memory card, not the phone memory, and it won't be removed after a hard reset.

Re: To protect hard reset

hi,

it not possible to avoid hard reset from the application . only the manufacturer has the control or api;s access that does the key event processing for the hard reset..

alternatively u can avoid reset by not allowing those keys to be used form the key capture tecnhique which can be handled from ur application..
