Hi
I got a replacement Tytn/v1605 (which so far doesn't have the screen alignment issue) and I did a factory reset because of a problem I was having and now I've noticed that I don't have the Office Suite installed anymore. I also can't remember if it was there before I did the reset.
Is there a way to get this back? Should it have been installed after the reset? The Vodafone branding reinstalled itself properly.

I thought I'd lost the office apps too whe I realised that they're not installed under programs any more - access to them if from the Today menu (I'm on a VF 1605 too and still getting used to it)
cheers thanks for that, i got hold of pocket plus and that had icons for it and i could launch so i knew it was on there somewhere, then I noticed Office sitting under Today on the Start menu, I'm sure that wasn't there before, I would have noticed it, but then again...
Cheers.

I tried installing spb pocket plus and, just after it installed, my Wizard didn't seem to be responding so I tried soft resetting it. On booting up it showed the O2 splash screen and then the Windows Mobile screen but nothing else. The screen goes dark as the backlight is turned off but you can still see the Windows Mobile screen showing. Each time I soft reset the same thing happens.
I've tried soft resetting about 4-5 times now and the same thing happens again. I've even taken the battery out and put it back in and the same thing happens. I was going to try reinstalling the O2 XDA firmware but as I can't get the Wizard to connect to ActiveSync I can't do that.
Has anyone got any ideas? At the moment I'm without my phone & all the PDA functions on the phone and I really want it back.
Thanks for any advice.

Think you may need to do a hard reset to put it back to it's factory state. Should work then.
Thanks, I'd been trying to do a hard reset but it didn't seem to work - then it occurred to me that I was actually pressing the wrong button to confirm the reset!
Hard reset works and gets it up and running again although, from checking, it seems that there's some problem between sdp pocket plus (3.0.0.3888) as I've now installed that about 3-4 times and each time, after doing a soft reset, the Wizard crashes and won't respond.
hi,
i recently wanted to simply restart my qtek s200 (g3), it stops at the blue windows mobile boot screen and just hangs and does nothing (i've waited for hours).
I am not using any mods, simply the original rom/software. The only thing extra installed is 3rd party software and the home screen from the new htc touch (i've have been using it for some time now, and yes, i have been able to reboot several times during that period).
I have no idea why it isn't working anymore since I have been using it in an ordinary fashion and have not installed any software lately...
What I have tried so far:
- soft reset
- removing battery, sd card, sim card
- hard reset is impossible due to the fact that my comm button no longer functions.
Any ideas how I can get this phone to boot in windows again?
If there is no "normal" way, then a hard reset would also work for me as the phone contains no important data.
Let me know if you need more info.
Thanks!

Since no hard reset is available... try removing the battery for the whole night.
If you do manage to get to windows then watch out for the startup folder, you're probably overloading the memory at startup.(htc home and psxut eat a lot at startup and windows as well)
i have removed the battery, sim and sd, and just left it there the whole night, but it still won't go further than the windows boot screen...
any suggestions ?
is is possible to do a hard reset by connecting it to usb and enter the bootloader somehow ? if yes, how ?
thanks!
hi,
have you tryed entering bootloader by the normal process?
"Hold down the camera button and reset the device. (Boot Loader Mode is: Press Camera + Soft Reset, then release soft reset and keep pressing camera button till appear the Boot Loader.)"
regards
yes, I can get into the bootloader, I can then also connect with USB with a notification at the bottom of the screen saying it's connected. However, I have no idea what to do afterwards ...

Okay then there is still hope.. When you have connected the device run an opdate tool like the NVID WM5 Rom.. that should work as a hard reset..
are there any working links available for this ? rapidshare seems to have disabled this...
thanks!

As long as you are able to enter bootloader then you can flash it with any old prophet rom. I had the same issue after installing WM6 rom. I used a Spanish rom on wiki to bring it back and then installed WM6 VII touch. So far it has worked well for a week.
HTC 6tab Home screen killed my 818pro!!!!!!
Here is what happened a few days back. My 818pro (aka prophet) suddenly heat up while not in use 3 days ago. I thought it was caused by the hot weather in my country (I was driving with aircond in full blast). The heating up eventually go away. Then 2 day later, after I put down a call, my phone just frozen / hung. Hence, I do a soft reset & guess what It never recovered & stop at the black screen with the dopod logo while restarting. Some service centre I visited told me that the main memory chip need replacement & reflash!!! I can't even see the window screen. I have use the HTC 6tab for 2 months & I am very sure it's the culprit here. Hopefully you are not having the same problem like me
Try plug in the ac charger before u do soft reset. My phone need it in order to restart after soft reset (after I started using the HTC 6tab Home Screen).
That is before my phone die yesterday
Hi guys,
I had a problem with my HTC Home plugin... I reinstalled another version (hermes 2.1) which didn't work perfectly (no profile icons). I then installed another version (Kaiser) which worked fine. I noticed that I had the other one still in my installed SW list and I removed it.
Apparently something went wrong here because now my phone gets stuck in "enter pincode" screen... the touchscreen responds (ligths up) and the stanby mode works as well but I can't enter my pincode (not even with the keypad). I can't connect to it anymore with my cable.
Anybody any ideas on how I can access my phone again??
Thx!

Assuming you took a backup before you started playing, I would suggest a hard reset.
You did use one of the free tools available here for backing up, didn't you?
One learns these things the hard way (I speak from experience).
Can you still use active synv?
Smiffy.
Off course I didn't
Well I didn't think I could crash my phone by un/reinstalling a today screen... My only mistake was that I didn't disable it before I started "playing"
Indeed lesson learned, in the meantime I've performed a hard reset and I'm reinstalling all my sw/tweaks
This topic can be removed

Hi,
Yesterday, I had to do one of those ubiquitous soft resets we always have to do with Windows Mobile... but instead of getting a soft reset, my trinity totally hard reset itself! (and no, I didn't touch any buttons while pressing the stick in there)
I profited from the occasion of losing some of my data (backup was a couple of weeks ago) to upgrade the ROM. That all went fine until yesterday evening, when I did a soft reset with the stick and got a hard reset AGAIN!
Does anyone know where this can come from? How to fix this annoying problem?!
Thanks!
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
I had the same exact problem with certain Roms...
Just don't know if it can be hardware problem, but try using the original HTC rom for a while to make sure everything's OK.
Best regards
Hi
My trinityis sufferng from the same problem, and it's getting progressively worse. From it originally happening once every few weeks, I can now re-flash and it will hard reset as soon as a day later (usually once i've re-installed everything...)
I've tried lots of different and reportedly stable ROMs, the latest being FlixNOver and an excellent German WWE Manilla 2D one floating around whos name i forget.
I am now assuming my trinity is dying, with a hardware related issue.
What is puzzling is that information previously written to the phone often remains and is acessible after then hard-reset. If this was Windows XP I'd suggest the Hard Drive was was corrupting and Windows was losing it's profile.
Anyone any ideas?
I have an Orange SPV M700 which has been unlocked, Hard SPL'd and a new WM6.5 ROM applied.
It has been working well for a few years now and is used daily as a satnav.
The other day, I left it and when I came back, it looked like someone had done a hard reset (blue/grey screen with "Press SEND to restore factory default, press END to quit" in blue.
I have tried pressing both send and end. I have tried both a soft and a hard reset and I have tried to get into the boot-loader screen. I have also tried my spare battery.
I keep coming back to the same screen.
any ideas on how I can get my phone back?
Can you still connect the phone to your computer or does it say not connected on the computer screen, if it was me an it came up I would re-install the same 6.5 rom.

No, the computer wasn't seeing the phone. However, he problem has been resolved.
A work colleague suggested that the battery may be at fault because he had had a similar problem with one of his Palm phones. New battery purchased, inserted into phone and bingo! problem solved
