    1. Turn the G1 off. If it’s frozen on, take the battery out and put it back in the unit.

    2. Hold the Home and Power keys down at same time for about 25 seconds. You will see a yellow triangle screen with exclamation point in the
    middle.

    Now to wipe the device clean:

    3. Press Alt+L.
    4. Press Alt+W for a factory reset.
    5. Press the Home and Back keys again for about 25 seconds.
    The device should then reset again and the hard reset is complete.[/HIDE-THANKS]

    Here is the soft reset for the HTC Dream

    [HIDE-THANKS]A soft reset clears the device memory and closes running applications. Perform a soft reset when your device hangs or freezes, is running slower than normal, or an application is not performing properly. If a soft reset is performed when applications are running, unsaved information will be lost.
    To perform a soft reset
    1. Remove the back cover.
    2. Remove the battery for a few seconds.
    3. Re-install the battery, replace the back cover, then turn on the device

    To remove the back cover
    1. Make sure the device is turned off.
    2. Hold the device sideways with the control buttons on the right.
    3. Slide the screen panel up to reveal the keyboard and the back cover release tab.
    4. Gently push down the release tab with your finger until the back cover disengages from the device.
    5. Pull the back cover out then set it aside. [/HIDE-THANKS]
