O2 atom locked and forgot password - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom General

Good day
I've O2 atom pure and one stupid guy took it while I'm sleeping and set a password then he forgot the passowrd :x ,,,is there anyway to unlock it without hard-reseting because I've important information in it
Regards

unfortunately... no way

isn't there anyway to backup my files at least

You can back up the info in two ways.. via the software inside the phone into a SD card or via active sync. As both method requires the security pin, so, there is really no way of backing it up.
I would suggest that you perform a trial and error (brute force) your way into the phone.

Thanks for the suggestion hanmin but I've tried to do it that way but microsoft did a stupid thing which is a timer that you can't retry entering the password until it finishes and the problem is that it counts double the last time when you enter wrong password
for example at the first time it counts from 3 to 0 and the second time from 6 to 0 and so on
Now I reached 24 hours

reset your atom by pressing power and softreset together with is top and hole near usb connector :lol:

ranganrangan
there is no problem to perform hard reset... the problem was to save the data from atom.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
maybe u not press the green+red button at the same time? a hard reset will put your device to factory setting again.
or if that not work, u can always upgrade your atom with the latest upgrade software

hello
maybe you can hard reset via recording button + reset button + power button at the same time.
or try any like this (reset button + power button + any side buttons) ok

O2 Xda mini couldn't startup normally.

My O2 xda mine refuse to start-up. I'm traveling this week without mobile phone, so any helps will be highly appreciated.
Problem description:
- Using the camera/video mode and acidently forgot to turn off mobile for a while.
- It was hange with screen changed to very strange color like negative film colors
- Press reset in the bottom of the phone, try to restart but then couldn't start-up succesfully. keep hang at the start-up screen only.
- Have to take-out the battery cover to turn it off, and turn-on by pressing the power button.
- Problem was even worst when it couldn't even show up the start-up screen anymore. If i press power button the blue light will blink once and then nothing happend.
P/S: not sure about the ROM version, since i couln't turn-on my phone at the moment. Cldn't find this info from O2.com website either.

To do a hard reset you need to press and keep pressed the camera and power switch while pushing the reset button.
Plug it into the wall charger rather than the PC USB.

wont boot

I got my hands on an i-mate jam + it wont boot
when i turn it on it says in black on top of screen Serial + at the bottom v1 .02
when i plug it on the USB Serial changes to USB
I tried both soft and hard reset but nothing
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks
I just reached the same point when I pushed the Soft Reset button in combination with the On button. This proceedure is outlined in the manual for my o2 Mini, and is recommended as a means of getting back to the factory installed settings. I did it because my screen backlighting will not come on and I thought it may have needed resetting. Replacing the screen didn't help.
I'm just new at this so I'll watch your post with interest.

Perhaps I'm just a goose (no confirmation required), but to get back from the Serial screen, all I needed to do was to press the Reset button again. This time without pressing the On button at the same time. V.

Faulty Power Switch

Hi Newbie here.
My XDAii has just recently started to do a hard reset every time i press the power button. I have updated the rom but this still happend. Please can someone help.
Kind regards Nick
The first thing I would do would be to make sure that your soft reset switch (the one you poke the stylus into) isn't stuck in IE you may have pressed it at some stage and it hasn't un-pressed. If this is still in, and you press the power switch, it might hard reset.
No the sort reset switch is ok. but doesnt do any thing. i have replaed the switch but it still doesnt do any thing??

Touch 3g restart problem

Dear Team,
I have HTC Touch 3g.Yesterday my phone powered down since i forgot to charge the batter .Then i charged the battery for whole day and when powered the phone it comes to the smart mobility screen and it never changes from that can anyone help me to resolve what the problem is?
I tried restarting many times but nothing is happening it comes to smart mobility screen and it hands from there.
Advance Sincere thanks
Vinod
Did you try to remove the battery for a few minutes and replace it and then start up?
Hope it helps!
Hi Nirak,
I tried that also but that doesn't work. Then one of my friend asked me to hard reset the phone this is not the reset button on the back side of the phone.This hard reset will format your phone and bring your phone back to factory setting .
FYI
We have to hold volume down button and Centre enter button and then we have to press the power button without releasing the rest of the buttons.Then it will show a message and after release those two buttons and press volume up button system will initializes and will come back with factory settings
Thank you Everyone hope if anyone faces this issue try hard resetting the phone
Glad a hard reset solved your problem
you must be hard reset your mobile

reset B7620 startup password??

i have this phone
how to remove password?or how to make hard reset?
I also had the same problem. few days ago I entered my password and some how the phone did not let me log in so I researched on how to do a hard reset.
Direction:
Hard reset on Samsung Giorgio Armani b7620
Turn off device. Place it in a flat surface
Hold W/L and Lock button together (do not release) then press (do not release) call button then power button....
Formatting Menu will appear, press call button to confirm hard reset
fyi: W/L = work and leisure button which locates on top next to the speaker phone.
before u do this please notice that after I did a hard reset on my phone, the phone itself did not get any network signal. so the Hard reset probably erased the Radio software on the phone. I don't know why it did that. I am guessing probably because I had the sim card in the phone when I did the Hard Reset.
What you can try is before you do the Hard reset. *Take the sim card out of the phone first* then follow the direction I gave up there.
Good luck.
