Is not a Reset button, it's a Shutdown Button, page #11 of the user manual

Oh ok
Anyway, is there any difference between using the reset button and using the volume up+power button combo?

Flash a rom which has advanced power menu then select reboot after pressing power button. (most roms have this)
Or there is an app called quick boot or fast boot something like that. You can reboot using that as well.

a million thanks, that's what I was looking for.
I have tried it. The phone was off but it never boot again. Just stay off. Am I making any mistake? Whenever I press and hold the power button, on the screen will appear several choices, one of them is the power off. But I just ignored it and keep pressing the power button.

+1, the phone does not reboot, just switches off. Need to power up again!
Push and HOLD all together: Volume up, on/off and Menu Key.
After some seconds it reboots (still hold the keys) and it runs in a selection menu. Here you can select " Warmstart" or clear cache before and then do a Warmstart.
Nothing will be destroyed, because its NOT a Factory reset (Coldstart).
???? Some crazy suggestions here.
Anyway, get SwitchPro widget (from the Market). There's a reboot button in it that pops up a menu for reboot, download or recovery.
It needs root to work. Any software method of rebooting your device will need root.

Okay, in that case, you need to use the power menu that you have to turn the phone off, and turn it back on again.

Which phone are these options on???
Warmstart ?? or do you just mean reboot which is the same as powering phone off and then on via power button and avoids recovery menu .

Does anyone know how to screen capture on ICS firmware? I've tried holding volume down+home screen but it doesnt work. Any ideas? :/
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Vol down + power for 3 secs should do the trick, if not download something for screenshots on the market, of course you must be rooted
I can confirm it's the volume down button + power for 3 seconds.

I just wanna do a hard reset on the phone. I know under privacy there's factory reset I want to do a hard reset clear cache the phones running like crap. I did get into download mode. But this is not what I want. My skyrocket have an option to hold vol up and down the power button together and getting into hard reset mode. I'm trying this with the note but no luck. I also tried holding volume button down and power, puts me into download mode I'm not trying to hook up my computer to it. Thanks

the trick is to hold both volume up and down at same time then hit power button. once you feel the phone vibrate let off the power button. inside of there you will get your bootloader and not download mode

its bit tricky and even i could not do for some times before. You need to press VolumeDown and Power buttons quickly together at exact time and keep pressing both together for 1/2 seconds and you will see a shot image going back to save. Dont press power for longer time else phone will switch off.
I'm facing the problem of rebooting of phone due to very long press(5-7 sec) of power button. The power button just randomly get pressed and then the mobile reboots. I remapped the power button with volume buttons but still the power button long press cannot be remapped.
Any fix and thoughts please!
