Clear Reset and Master Reset - Motorola Q

What is the difference between the clear reset and the master reset? I was told these are only on the Q from AT&T. I don't know the difference.
Thanks

Sorry for the double post.

I have never heard of a "clear reset" but I know that a "master reset" will COMPLETELY reset your phone to the complete default settings.

I was wrong--it is called master clear and master reset--I have used master clear and it reset the phone to like it was from the factory--I haven't tried master reset yet. I think they might both be the same thing.

Master Clear means ittakes the phone in to default function level nd doesnt remove any data but in master reset it clear data and takes ur phone in to default function .

I believe its the other way around.

i did a master clear yesterday, it erased everything ans when it rebooted it was the same as turning on the phone for the very first time... i wish this crap was reversible!

How do I do a "master clear" on my phone. I bought it online, and it has someone elses data on it. It is a Qwest phone. I am subscribed to Qwest wireless, and presently have a Katana II by Sanyo. Can I change phones?
