Ah spotted one last suggestion, combinations including paperclip reset and power, or all 3, that's going to need good co-ordination
There's no such combination, so don't worry.

Just to confirm what you need to do to force a factory reset:

- Charge the battery for at least an hour.
- Hold the power switch in the off position for at least 20 seconds. This will force a power off.
- Hold the home button down and turn it on. Or hold the home button down and press the pinhole reset button.
- When the LED starts flashing, release the home button.

If the above doesn't work, try it again but hold everything a little longer.

If the above still doesn't work, depending in exactly which model of the Touch it is, you can try restoring the internal SD card from an image. The image is available for the N905B and N905C. The N905 doesn't have removable internal memory so can't be imaged.
