passworded mda? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

im going to buy a mda phone, but it's passworded, is it possible that i can just boot it in 3 color mode and just flash it to wm6, then it will automatically remove the password?

a hard reset will clear off password..you can google "how to hard reset a mda".. it clears off everything just leaves the os...saved files, installed programs...etc..

How to *really* hard reset Universal to factory condition

With all this talk about WM5 devices not really resetting everything after a hard reset, and my device being dead and not recovering after a hard reset makes me think, there must be an alternate way to really hard reset a device back to factory condition.
I tried a lot of combinations of presses to no end. The only thing I am suspicious about but did not play with is a red/white round sticker (which looks like it is hiding a button) under the battery (upper left corner).
Anyone know what that is, or is there a way to do a harder reset? Taking the battery out for a few days did not help either.
Because flash memory actually needs erasing rather than just resetting I doubt it is possible to clear it with a simple button press. It may be you can do a normal hard reset and hold down a button to bypass loading data from the flash then format it. But I've no idea really.

Re-flash the ROM?
uuummm some where in this forum i read that if you have wm2005 and go to boot loader mode you get an option over there to clear the cache or memory something like that, and that would give you a clean installation.....
haven't tried it though.....and i doubt i would get such an option in wm2003se, also i have a similar problem i did a complete flash reinstallation of rom to my device and after the installation i opened windows media player (wasnt the first thing i opened, but didnt copy any files)and guess what....i had a song available over there..... which i could actually play and it did....i checked the location of the file and it was somewhere in my device or documents dont quite remember i did a hard reset again and same issue....
after that i have'nt tried anything the rom is same i just deleted the folder manually but i would also like to know how to TOTALLLLLLY ERASE ALL DATA from the device and clean install everything
regards
on the XDA II and WM5 you hold down the buttons to resent stage then i gives you three options. One of these I am sure clears the phone
I hard reset my Universal several times (well I think I did at least)
Press the soft reset plus the two "-" buttons and you will have a white screen asking if you want to put back your HTC back factory default
Unfortunately that standard hard reset, doesn't do it. I am still stuck at reboot, and the radio rom version shows the attempted upgrade version (01) that started the problem in the first place.
i tried some of them according to herein, but some of them were not function.

there's a little icon called "clear storage" which brings your settings to the factory's default. what's wrong with it?
i'm stuck too in bootloader with my mda pro

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This may be too late, but there's no way to do any sort of a reset to revert back to a previous ROM... the only thing you can do is reflash the earlier ROM.

ok ... now the final BIG request ... who can give us an update that works. the patched Maupgradeut_noid is not working with the latest upgrade.
thanks.
To revert back to clean copy of OS (i.e newly installed OS)
Hi,
Just to share with you my experience in reverting my phone to its original OS condition. Before that, just to give you guys some background.
1. Upgraded from PPC2003 to WM5
2. Tried install some patch to enable file transfer (OBEX) in BT
3. Suddenly, the phone screen gone missing. Phone shows No Signal. Cannot receive call.
3a. Did a OS reflash again, but still does not solve the problem.
4. **Panic for a moment **
5. Looked thro Program Files, and seems like some appln i installed were not erased despite doing a hard reset. So, i guess the hard reset doesnt erase some portion of the memory
6. Googled for a solution, but most said do hard reset
7. Went back xda-developers.com site to look for solution
8. Finally found a method. see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1164331 to do a format on the memory
Now, my phone is working fine. The phone screen is back and it shows my telco name, and can receive call
Hope this helps.
Rgds,

you're in the wrong forum mate

In serious trouble... Device Lock will not go away

Hi,
I used Matts Device Lock from another thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45953) and now my Wizard won´t unlock!! Soft reset, HW reset, nothing helps. When I press the Unlock Soft button I get a blank screen - nothing else.
Any suggestions?
As of now I can´t use the device at all...
- Glen
I can still access the device via Active Sync (I can see the device in explorer) so any suggestions on how to remove the device lock program from there would be appriciated.
- Glen
pass...
worst case scenario cant you just grab all your important data through active sync and flash the phone with the same ROM - in affect reseting the whole thing? :roll:

if you can help in any way, im tempted to trash this phone
I honestly have no ideaaa what in the world this means, but obviously its not good, i tried the soft and hard reset, but yeahh nothing.
CAN ANYONE HELP ME!!!
and Im serious, when i say i know nothing about this phone
I switched from a Blackberry Pearl to the 8525.
I can tell you that what you're seeing is the boot loader, from here you can hard reset the device to try and get it back.
I had this happen once before on my jasjam.
Plug in the USB and Launch the ROM installer (http://www.america.htc.com/support/8525/software-downloads.html for offical)
has gotten me out of being stuck in the boot loader plenty. That or try loading an memorycard with a rom image named HERMIMG.rbh (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing)
Mmmm,
I would be very careful. As ruxton said you are in bootloader mode. As you do not know anything about this phone lets be a bit more specific. (I hope its well your phone )
The bootloader mode is there to load (flash) a new firmware (Can be the OS, a radio rom, etc...) As we speak about the kernel of your pda, there is obviously a risk to distroy it. This is why it is hardly recommended to install another SPL (hardspl from olipro) before playing. But this is another story... for the moment.
IF the firmware is not corrupted, you can leave the bootloader mode:
Try first to "soft reset" your pda (little hole on the bottom of the phone. Push the button with the stylus). It will reinitialise the pda without loosing data
Second: Remove the battery for 1 minute and insert it again. Soft reset if necessary
Third: the hard reset method. Here you loose your data: Push "soft key left" (above the ms logo), "soft key right" (above the ok) maintain together and perform a soft reset at the same time (see above). Answer to the questions.
If this does not work, this could mean that the firmware is corrupted. You will have to flash... But again...this is another story. Lets see if it is necessary.
Still lost on trying to fix this thing guys.
Sorryy i told you i was new at all this.
Can anyone help me try and flash it with my SDcard?

how reset my o2 neo

i forgot my password after upgrade my wm5 to wm6. i tried to to use spl to flash my phone but my pc cant open my device because my device is locked so the activsync cant do anything.
someone can help me plz!!!!!!!!!!!
*edit* i try to hold the camera and com man buttons adn the same time and press reset button. but it doesnt change
Firstly, I can't see how resetting the device will help you with your problem.
Secondly, how far into a reset do you want to go? Do you want to reinstall the OS or something slightly less drastic?
i just want to open my password. then i will upgrade my phone to wm6 with PIN
Did you set a password after flashing WM6? I've heard that if you do so, your device forgets your password after a soft-reset, and nothing will help your problem besides a hard reset.

Locked out of Phone

Hi all,
I recently applied the WM6 upgrade http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=372485 to my PDA.
However, I removed the battery so I could take out the SIM card, and now it won't accept my PIN anymore. It seems like the registry has become corrupt and does not recognise the PIN anymore.
I can't get into the phone, and a hard reset does not work (I know how it's done, unfortunately). I have also let the battery drain completely (including backup), and it does not hard reset the phone.
What can I do? Are there any tools that can wipe the device through USB?
Thanks!
Problem Solved: Flashed device with provider's original ROM upgrade.. I see this is an issue with WM6
have you perform the hard resett this way ?

Cool, thanks for that. Should help for the next time
Have to disable this Corporate PIN policy now..
