I WAS WONDERING HOW I COULD REINSTALL WINDOWS ON MY DEVICE AS I CANT SWITCH IT ON. IN FACT I CAN SWITCH IT ON BUT WHEN IT TRYIES TO ENTER THE WINDOWS SHOWS A WHITE SCREEN ONLY AND DOESNT START PROPERLY AND THEN A BLACK SCREEN AGAIN.
PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO DO.
For god sakes, stop typing in capitals.
Hold down the Comm+Voice buttons while pressing the reset button. Then release the reset button. Keep your fingers on the Comm+Voice button until it says "Push send to format"... then press the bottom left button on the front of the device (i.e. the green telephone button). It will say FAT format complete then it will reboot. Wait about 2 minutes for it to repopulate the device's ROM.
There, you have a factory-fresh device.

It's my first time hard-resetting my wizard (random resets are finally getting to me), but I was wondering how on earth am I supposed to do this. I follow all the procedure, and all that appears is a screen filled with the colors red green and blue. I hold for about a minute more after that screen shows up and nothing more appears. I know i'm supposed to see some dialog box that asks if I want to clear it, but I'm just not seeing it.
Hi - this is the way i do it.
Turn device off.
Hold comm button (top left) and record button (top right) together.
Turn device on - keep fingers on two buttons above.
Black screen should come up with some writing (take fingers off buttons above) - press call button (green)
and it will hard reset.
This may work. But that is NOT what the manual says to do. It says to hold the top side left and top side right buttons and use the stylus to push in the reset button on the right side. But I did this and it did nothing.
HTC Wizard, i-mate K-JAM, Cingular 8125:
While holding the Comm manager button and the Voice Command button, push in on the soft reset button (reset hole) once. Keep holding the Comm Manager and Voice Command buttons until there is a screen asking you if you want to clear all data. To commit, press the green send key.
Note: The Cingular 8125 also has a software hard reset option. You can find this application in the Settings folder under "Clear Storage."

I've tried the hardware button method several times (camera button, comm button, and turn on) and I even tried the other method (which did nothing) but when I perform the comm and camera method, all I get is a multi-colored screen that has two strings of numbers on it. So the next question I got to ask is, is a clear storage for the 8125 as effective as the hardware reset?
Some people think it is, some don't - I think it's pretty close give it a shot
Just navigate to clear storage its easier.
Start > Settings > "System" tab > clear storage
It will ask if you really want to, tap yes then it should hard reset.
This is how I hard reset to UPGRADE or RELOAD the ROM from my PC:
I keep the device on... I hold the top left (comm mgr button) and top right (voice command button) then I press the reset button on the right side with my stylus. ONce the device goes to black screen, I release the top left button while still holding the right... wait 3 seconds then release the top right button. At this point you should be to a DOS like screen with a USB label in the lower left. You can then load the ROM from your PC to the device.
Hello,
I installed SPB Pocket Plus, then I reboot, since then my mobile stops in the boot screen.
Is there a way to boot in safe mode? (I tryied to boot holding the two upper buttons, failed.)
Is there a way to format the mobile before booting?
If I need to reinstall EVERYTHING, how do I do it? Using the USB cable? Where do I get the ROM? How do I procede installing the rom?
Please, I would REALLY appreciate any suggestion,
I am in panic.
Thanks.
same here! don't know what to do, a hear an alarm tune and then it stops...
I did a hard reset now...
A quick Google search got me HERE.
Press and hold both the Comm Mannager Button and the Voice Command Button
While keeping those two buttons pressed, press the Reset Button with your stylus
After about a second you will be prompted for confirmation. Press the Talk Button to confirm

Additionally, if you can still connect to your desktop by USB Cable, you should be able to remove the offending software with ActiveSync without hard-reseting.
thank you so much, but I had to hard-reset my device, I lost everything, damn!
that's how i did it:
Plug the device on power
Turn on your device
1. Press simultaneously the 2 upper buttons (comm. & voice) and keep them pressed
2. After 3 s press the soft reset button and keep it pressed for 3 s, (comm. & voice are still pressed)
3. Release soft reset button., (comm. & voice are still pressed)
4. Don’t release comm. & voice buttons until you see on the black screen some Instructions to format your drive.
5. release comm. & voice buttons
6. press call button to start format your drive.
Thank you both for the attention,

After you pushed the buttons & soft re-set with stylus, did you push the "send" key? (green phone hardware button)
no. but i read about pushing that button after message appeared on the screeen but it never appears.
hold down the comm manager button and voice memo button (both on top) then push in the small hole in the side with your stylus and hold it down until your phone boots up and gives you a message to send. Alternatively, you can go to Settings --> System --> Clear Storage, enter "1234" and hit ok.

O.K., then I can only suggest to keep trying until the message to send does appear, or hit send without the message appearing.
Can you boot in to your OS? If you can then just go to Start--> Settings--> System--> Clear Storage and that will do a hard reset for you.

Based on the info stated in his thread, I'm assuming he can't get past the splash screen. It sounds like some type of program was pasted to start-up preventing the device to get to the Today screen.
Prolly not the right way to do it but i was getting the same problem trying to "hard " reset my phone. he is trying it while the phone is on and displaying everything. personally i held it for 5 minutes and the screen never appeared. i then thought i was doing something wrong. by chance i tried turning the phone off and then holding the buttons which prompted me to press the send button. and there you go system formatted.

You will be presented with a menu saying 'press SEND to restore factory default, press END to exit', if you press SEND Your device will be set back to factory default settings.than Press "OK" to boot

Hi,
I know others have this problem. My phone starts, gets through loading almost all the way, but before I can do anything, it shuts down and starts all over again. It just keeps starting, loading, shutting down, over and over again.
The only way to stop it is to remove the battery. The hard reset instructions in my manual do not work. Hold the red and green keys and press soft reset. Can I somehow interrupt the load up or get into some kind of menu or flash the phone? I cannot sync with the phone since it doesn't stay on long enough before restarting again.
Thanks
Try to enter the bootloader screen (tri-color screen). If you can do that without it looping on you, you can flash from there.
Follow these instructions to enter your bootloader screen.
hi there another way too boot your htc elf connet it with usb start it and when start screen windows appear or start screen of your provider hold green red and on/ off up the phone keep holding the buttons till you get 'this will erase all your personal data' message, then press 'action' (big front button) to hard reset.
