Hi, Looks like there are multiple things that can cause the phone to enter safe mode. 1. D-pad center key (if d-pad is present) 2. Menu key 3. S key (if hard keyboard is present) 4. Mouse (Not sure when this event is triggered, probably when a hid device is connected?)
A restart gets the phone back to normal mode.
