One of our readers, Devin, let us know about a cool tip for the BlackBerry PlayBook. Since the BlackBerry PlayBook does not have a removable battery it makes it impossible to perform a true hard reset of pulling the battery like you can on BlackBerry smartphones. Just to confirm what I mean by a hard reset. This key combination will perform a hardware reboot instead of a software reset on the BlackBerry PlayBook.
To perform a hard reset on the BlackBerry PlayBook:
Hold down the volume up key, volume down key, and power button at the same time and hold it for about 15 seconds. TIP: Its easier if you hit the volume up key then the volume down key and then the power key.
Thanks Devin for the tip! Feel free to share your tips by emailing us or sharing them in the comments!
