Hi,
I got my black x1 on satyrday. started loading diferent programms to get other languages from paragon and some other , but nothng worked. then I was trying to change some registrs to unlock the extra rom. wich didnt work and after reboot it starts up with se and shows xperia and that was it.
so next day I went to shop and they without any questions give me new x1.
that was my first day with x1
strange but i think thats the problem with hacking around
strange is that hard reset didnt work
Wtf were you trying to unlock? what extra rom...
Hard reset just removes all of your settings, but you didnt screw with the settings, you screwed with the registry
the rom where are all the programms that installs after hard reset
I thouht that registrs are set to default too !?!?!?!?!

Lol! Be careful with the tweaking next time around... they might not be nice enough to replace it so easily again.

So tell me... (this going to be my first WinMo device) can we easily reset everything on the set or not - if needed? Like you re-install windows on a PC and stuff?

lmao actually im not sure, this is gonna be my first winmo phone actually.
But i guess you just messed up the recovery sector of that locked ROM ;p
youre lucky though. thats one advantage to buying phones from a retail store, just walk in and get a replacement no questions asked lol.
I'm also a n00b on WM but I think there is no a 'thing' as unlocking extra ROM in WM
Nah windows always has a protected area where people normally arent supposed to go into. I've also seen retail computers with whole locked off partitions where all of the original programs and settings are stored, waiting for the consumer to screw up and use that restoration disk.
strange. so many people able to buy X1. y is there not alot of X1 on ebay.com?
i really wanted this phone!
All of the X1s right now are out in sweden. Maybe ebay has a separate site for sweden like they do with china/hong kong.
Plus, who in the right mind would buy and sell such a wonderful device ;p
OK
The stick in se but is soft reset. I thoth its hard reset.
whot is realy hard reset combination?
Press power and soft reset together for at least 5 sec.

Registry changes do not survive a hard reset. So tweak away.

yes I did a test
added a string to registry and after hard reset it was gone
wich means that phone was OK that I returned.
I thoth that push button under cover is hard reset because couple times after messing with phone it hanged and pressing soft button it resset all(like hard reset)

I've just tried to unhide my extended rom with help of 2 registry keys. now my device does not boot up. It stays on white blank screen.
What can I do ? (other than hard reset ?)
Is there a way to boot up without reading registry keys ?
is there a way to edit the registry of a not booted device ?
or any way to open device without reading registry ?
Well, I'm only a newbie myself, so I don't know if this will help. I unhid my own extrom yesterday with reg tweaks. There we more than two changes to make, mind you, including the addition of a dword value that didn't exist on my 8525. You don't offer what type of device you are using, so that might limit how much help you get here, btw.
Anyway, have you tried soft resetting by using the stylus in the hole at the bottom of the device? That MIGHT do something different and let you get into the system.
There is a safe mode that some 3rd party offers ... I think SPB PocketPlus...but that won't help if it's not already installed, and I'm not sure it would help in your circumstance.
Anyway...good luck. I hope this, or someone else's advice can help you.
-pvs
pvs,
thank you. I had to hard reset. now I am trying to install everything back.
it will be hard...
Btw, I of course tried to soft reset with the stylus.
My device is I-Mate Jasjam (HTC Hermes)

What you didn't have a comprehensive back up!! Oh dear dear dear. That's a hard lesson I learned a while back. Now I could happily hard reset right now and be fully back up and running in say 10 minutes with SPB backup. A lesson for all.

in fact I am using SK tools for backup. but my backup was too old.
This is a new device and I installed a lot of software lately.
Well, look on the bright side, you have cleared out all the 'stuff' that builds up on a system after a lot of installing and uninstalling, and you're sure to build it better this time. It's just irritating that this kind of thing usually happens when you have no time.

Mmmm yes I have that problem remembering to do the backup often enough, sods law something goes pear shaped when you haven't done one for a while
Mike
exactly ))
well its going well now...
just losing time.
I need a little help.
After a crash I hardresetted my Hermes and then used SK Tools to return to a backup point. But now when I try to activesync I get a message on my PC saying that the mobile device has already synced with another PC and it requests a new name for this PC.
I haven't synced with another PC. What shoukd I do ?
Please don't kill me if this has been posted already, but I have searched and searched and searched.
I installed Manilla 2D and wasn't really feeling it, so I removed it. Well everything works fine except my quickdial pad on my touchflo cube. When I boot the phone I get an error message about the quickdial.exe program, and when I launch the cube, I can see the quickdial pad, but no names appear, and I can't activate it with touch.
Is there a registry tweak to fix this??? Or what can I do?? I REALLY don't want to do a hard reset, but if I do, will it go back to WM6 or will it stay WM6.1?
Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!
Oh, I have the HTC Touch (Sprint), btw.
same thing happened to me ... i don't recall seeing an error about quickdial though... let me go to war with it and tell you what i find out.
well... tried everything i could think of... replaced Quickdial.exe with another version, tried two other cubes from different versions of the phone... looked through the reg... didn't fix it.
Backup your stuff and do a hard reset. it will go back to the last ROM you instaled.
If it still doesn't work, you nee to re-execute the ROM upgrade utility (RUU)
we'd rather not at this point
Ugh. Doing a hard reset for a simple dial pad makes my head hurt. I'm never installing another app on this phone that messes with the interface. I'll just stick with what it's got until the next phone.
If anyone thinks of another solution, PLEASE let me know. Hard reset is such a pain.

Main reason why i dont want to install Manilla 2D...
Mostly, do not instal BETA if you are not ready to do a hard reset... Or if you don't use an easy backup utility...
Especially when they mention it in the app's tread!
I don't understant why it seems so terrible for you guys to do a hard reset... I just did it with mine: It feels much lighter now!
The Manilla 2D replaces the default quick dial, so the files are altered. It's like trying to install the cube and HTC Home, at least in some instances. The two files conflict, so you'll need to hard reset.
Or, reinstall without the quick dial .cab, and use the customizer to remove the speed dial page.

You will have to provide more detail as it depends on what you did. When you say you bricked it, what were you doing and what failed?
If you hard reset it, everything will be as it was when you first got it so your contacts and any other changes you made to the phone will be lost.

What changes were made that may have caused the problem?
You still be able to get around using the Start Menu, at least until the phone freezes as you say.
if the phone boots but tf3d just freezes, just go to start, settings, personal, today - items tab, scroll down the list, deselect tf3d - sync phone with pc (this backsup contacts - hard reset - sync to pc to restore your contacts.

nope no start menu! i tried to go in and delete OZ IM cuz it was extremely irratating me and i tried soft reset and it would only load to start screen
Hi clampi, what happens when you connect it to your PC? if you can still active sync you should be able to back up a lot of files and stuff if you need to hard reset, it doesn't sound like it is broken though, just messed up, you just have an unpleasant hill to climb. I have not gone through anything like this since I had an Artemis, when I learned to use SPB backup, free trial available, now whenever I do something which I think may potentially bugger up my phone, like digging holes in my registry, I use SPB backup first. Sometimes I just make a backup, hard reset and restore just for the hell of it, I think it can help smooth out/de-frag memory. Any way good luck sorting it out.

RTFM...
There are instructions in your owner's manual on how to do a hard reset. For the CDMA Diamond, it is Power, Vol Down, DPad Center, and reset. Might be different for TP.
Regardless, you are far from bricked.

yea i kno what im sayin! i was sayin thank you for telling me how n i was gonna do it after i restored my contacts!. and i kan get my TP to acticesync but when i try to save my contacts it says Outlook has not been installed! im on windows Vista
Install Outlook and try again. I think you can download it from Microsoft's website (at least as a trial).
Instructions are on page 126 of the manual for the Touch Pro.
Here's what it says;
To perform a hard reset:
With the device turned off, press and hold the Volume Down and Enter keys first, and then press and hold the Power key until you see the following message on the screen: <Warning Message>
Release the Volume Down, Enter, and Power keys, and then press the Volume Up key to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
hello i am a new member and i am teasing my diamond.i tryed to do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=460295 and ι made the mess!!please help
now i see only the "ok" and "help" menu before opening the TF3D menu screen.
since it's installed by cab, i believe you can just uninstall it. First disable TF3D.Then uninstall and enable TF3D again. think that atleast will restore youre TF3D to normal.
yes dfenz we had the same conference but i install it at the internal memory and now it doesnt exists
If worse comes to worst you can hard reset your Diamond. Look in the wiki on how to do this
oh no please not again...there is something that i can do.

Trust me it is better to hard reset. I had a problem like yours and doing the hard reset did the trick.
i was using meta trader 4 program and it prompts for live update.. the update always fail so i had to click ok to delay update everytime i use..
however on ocasions it may just hang..
hence starts my cycle of taking out the battery or poking the reset button time and time again to reset..
after one fateful reset, programs like sktools tdkeyboard wvga3fix no longer works.. it states that " either the cert is invalid or component not found "
any idea whats up? corrupted file system ?? but there is no scan disk like our pcs ..

I'm sorry, normally I wouldn't suggest resets because too many people use them as a lazy way out instead of a last resort as they should be, but looking at the problem you're having, it think it will save a lot of stress trying to find and then fix the problem if you do just hard reset.
u tryed reinstalling SDKcert.cab ? else there ist no way around the thing we dont talk about in this thread
i did a harden reset lol sigh now the painful process of reinstalling
