"While holding volume up button, press and hold power button"?

Holding the power button for 10 seconds is actually a "forced shutdown".

If you do this with the Vox is running normally, you will see the normal shutdown dialog and then at about 8 or 9 seconds a dialog saying "Shutting Down"

I'm just trying to get a clear picture of exactly what you are experiencing to see if it parallels what happens on my Vox.

I refer to the hard reset as holding the power button down for 10 seconds when the Vox freezes after sleeping. I get no messages when I do this...simply turns it off, so I can turn it back on again with no sleep freeze....
