How to reboot?

[JonGu]

Is there a way to reboot without turning on and off the phone?

Reboot: The process of turning a computer system off and then back on again, to reload the software.

lol, Its not a reboot if you dont turn it off. Sorry thats a pretty basic question with the same answer every time. Must turn off to reboot no other way. Sorry.

I could be wrong, but I think he's asking if the G1 can be rebooted quickly, similarly to how a pc is restarted by clicking "restart" instead of saying "shutdown," then powering on the machine by the power button.

As far as I know, it cannot be quickly rebooted.

i'm sure thats what he was asking. it's stupid to have to hold down the power button to turn it off then hold it again to turn it back on. i don't know about other phones,but my tytn had a reset hole you could push your stylus into to make it reboot. better yet, you could reboot or power off with a tap on the screen . android aint so evolved yet.

Supposedly, you can simply type "REBOOT", hit Enter and the phone will reboot.

I used to be able to get it to work if i typed it really fast, but now i can't do it at all. Maybe it got removed in the latest firmware update?!?

Either way, imo opinion it's easier to just turn off/turn on the phone. Can be done one handed and doesn't really take long at all.

Yeah, if you have RC<30 or a patched RC30 with root hack, you could definitely type reboot to get a soft reboot. But as said, that requires many keystrokes and two hands.

Try hitting the End key + Call key + Menu key at the same time......

Now THAT is a quality solution!

It worked for me- although I was skeptical, I must say.
