Is there a System Menu for special Functions, like WIPE CACHE?

On my DX, there was a method of pressing and holding the Menu button & Power up button to get to special "Systems" functions like WIPE CACHE & FACTORY RESET. Does such a procedure exist for the Razr ? I know about SAFE MODE and was able to see that work. (Although my finger hurt having to press the up/down Volume buttons for so ling. )

Hopefully I can retype this link on my phone.

If not, you can search for "factory reset Droid Razr Maxx" and look under the article link for the Hard Reset (Alternate method)

While I have done this quite a few times (and this has made my phone a bit more responsive when it gets sluggish) you should be careful and watch what you are doing. If you select the wrong menu option you may end up having to contact Verizon for support.

Wiping the cache partition

Power the phone off
Press and hold the volume down, volume up and power button until the recovery screen appears.
Use the volume down button to select "Recovery" and then press the volume up to confirm the selection.
The phone will do a little reboot thing, display the dual core logo thing and then an Android next to a triangle with a yellow exclamation point will appear. At this point press the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time.
If you did everything correctly you are now at the Android System Recovery Screen. To clear the cache press the volume down button until you have selected "wipe cache partition". Press the power button to confirm the selection and it will wipe the cache partition.
Once the cache is cleared press the volume up button to select "Reboot System Now" and press the power button to confirm the selection. If the "Reboot System Now" is already selected then just press the power button to confirm the selection and the phone will reboot.
