MDA Stuck on Press Send to Restore...

Hi: This is my first posting and I am new on this board. I have had an MDA that I got as a gift from my Dad and I love it. However, I used it last week and for some unkown reason, it is stuck in the:
'Press Send to Restore Factory Defaults, Other Key to Quit.'
I have been trying to get past this for 4 days and am not having any luck.
I got to the Align Screen and that happened only once. Then I could not get past that. It keep showing the Align Screen and I kept tapping and it just kept going round and round from the Center Tap to the sides and back.
My battery is fully charged, I have read this forum and still I am lost. I would really appreciate any help. Thank you so much.

Thank you for trying to help me. However, I have done both of the resets over and over and I keep getting the same result. 'Press send to restore factory defaults, other key to quit.'
I can get no further than that display regardless of what key or keys that I hit.
I have even tried the two ways of doing a Hard Reset:
1. Hold Com and Voice while pressing Soft Reset Button for 5 or more seconds until I get that display.
2. Hold Com, Voice and Camera while pressing Soft Reset Button for 5 or more seconds until I get that display.
I cannot get past that display regardless of what key or keys I press.
It seems frozen at that display point.

Tried again this am to hard reset my MDA. Now it goes and shows the T-Mobile screen with the IPL/SPL etc. Then goes into Windows and to the Align Screen and for some reason will not recognize the Screen Tapping to align the screen.
I did try to use my PC to recognize the MDA, but it would not. Downloaded WST and that would not recognize my MDA either. I understand that until I get past the Hard Rest my MDA will not be recognized by my PC due to ActiveSync being requried to connect my MDA to the PC. I don't know what else I can try. Search all day yesterday and could not find any solutions. Will continue today. Any suggestions, Please. Thank you.

Use the love rom to set phone back to "zero". Therefore you must press press the voice and camera buttons if joy reset youre phone.
You get some collored bloks om youre phone and then you can use the love rom.
After that you can use youre original rom updater

Did a search for Love Rom and Wizard_Love ROM and only came up with 103 results consisting of some Threads with 1570, 898, 618,787, 893, 464........postings on the first page for Threads 1-25.
Now I do have a Red, Green, Blue, White Screen with RUU in the top right corner of the Red Bar with IPL 2.26 and SPL 2.26 in the Red Bar. Nothing is in the Green, Blue or White bar.
I tried to Hard Reset and Soft Rest and nothing happens. I removed my Battery and then tried again and still nothing happens?
Where can I find Wizard_Love ROM and what do I do when I find it. My PC will not recognize my MDA and I used WST and that cannot located my MDA.
I am at a complete loss of what to do next.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to try to help me get my phone operational.

Use the love rom to set phone back to "zero".
do not confuse guys with this statement.Wizard_love_Rom is a patched rom which is flashed to recover back the phone in some stuck up phones,but it doesn't set the phone back to 'ZERO',but its an italian language rom.
Tonis
The multicolor screen is the bootloaders with IPL/SPL 2.26 displayed,this is the mode from where you can flash another rom.There's no need to get the phone activesync,cuz it won't activesync in bootloaders.But when in bootloaders,connect the phone with pc via usb cable and watch small usb appear at the bottom of the bootloaders,if its there then you are good to go and can flash a rom.
Now,download the official T-mobile 2.26 from the link below and get the phone in bootloaders,check usb appear at the bottom and flash it to recover back to the default status of the phone.

Thank you again for your help. Prior to this posting I found:
epimazzo Posting at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294107&highlight=bootloader #1 and this is what cleared up my problem and now my MDA is running GREAT!!!!!!!!
This was the same thing that you posted for me, too.
Maybe some of you are already aware of this procedure, maybe not.
Anyway, it worked for me and I decided to share how to do it. Simple.
This procedure should only be used in case you really need enter into a bootloader mode (Red, Green, Blue, White Screen) and all other ways to do it has failed! Hold Camera button is one of these I am mentioning.
1. Make sure your Phone is not Connected to the PC and remove the dummy card or SD/MMC card
2. On your Desktop PC, open Microsoft ActiveSync, then go to File >Connection Settings >Remove the Selection from “Allow USB Connection with this desktop computer”
3. Reconnect your Phone to the Desktop PC using the USB Cradle and the Charger MUST be Connected to the Cradle (Don’t use the IrDA or Bluetooth for the Upgrade)
4. Run the Upgrade again and it will work fine without any problems.
While upgrading, the ActiveSync program will not go on, however the upgrade is running.
So, Thank you all for your time and help. I do hope this helps others to find a way to correct their problems.

Thanks !
Yes.thats exactly what I wanted you to do
I'm glad you got it up and running fine
Cheers!

Frozen on blue 'Windows Mobile' screen

Hi,
I've been reading through these forums and am getting very lost as to what to do.
I have the Orange SPV M3100 and it won't boot into windows. On switching it on, it does the orange bit: at the bottom - "m05 s04 b06 d1.23" and 'No GSM' flashes up briefly before the freeze on 'Windows Mobile' loading screen.
On pressing 'Ok' and power button together with a soft reset, I get to the tri-colour screen and it says "HERM100", "IPL-1.01", "HERM100", "SPL-1.04", and either "USB" or "Serial" depending on whether or not it's USB'd to a PC port.
I've tried the master reset - top two buttons and a soft reset, followed by 'R' to confirm a full reset. It immediately said 'done' or something to that effect, but still freezes on 'Windows Mobile'.
All the help threads here seem to indicate that I need to have this phone running with Active Sync on the PC to transfer files to it in order to refresh the ROM but Windows [XP] can't see the phone because it's not finished booting.
Please please please can someone give me a nudge in the right direction?
Many thanks
Dave

as you said ok and power together with soft reset action brings you tri colour screen. At that stage you plug in to active sync (4.5) and ensure you have .net framework installed on your PC.
with the tricolour screen, plug PC to phone and run the exe file from one of these ship ROM http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Available Original Shipped WM6 ROM Versions
you should then be able to get an OS back to your phone. Then get this one on to your phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
after that you can flash what ever rom you like make sure you follow the dr's suggestions here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1990320&postcount=6

Will this remove all data from the phone, like contacts, settings?
If so, is there a way retrieve them before reinstalling OS?
Thank you.

Well if your phone is semi dead, you can't really retrieve any data other than the ones on the SD card.

Hi there, well, I'm back after months of forgetting about this but still hoping to get it to work. Thanks for the above reply, but that method of putting software on still relies on getting activesync to communicate with the mobile phone via the usb cable - my phone doesn't. windows sees that I've connected a usb device but active sync gives up trying to talk to it... any further ideas greatly appreciated...
Best regards

hi sonkar read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445666

i agree with marcbrug .. try to do a hard reset .. that is by holding the End & the Call Buttons and soft reseting the phone.. when the confirmation msg appears press the "Middle" (the largest) button..
hope that helped...

I have already done the hard reset,it's the first thing i did but still facing same problem.

It's happened to me a couple of times. I just re-flashed the ROM (hard reset did not work).

Can you explain how i can flash the rom?
Cos as the phone gets stuck in calibration i cant install cert and cab files in the phone.So i cant do hardspl and neither flash the rom.My spl is 2.26.00.

You could probably still install it manually if you are able to connect to ActiveSync during the screen calibration.
First, try installing "myMobiler" which allows you to access the phone from your PC (like in Remote Desktop). See if you can get any further than the calibration screen with that.
Otherwise, download the "itsutils" package from here:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html
Then, use "prun" to remotely launch the CAB file from the DOS window:
e.g. C:\> prun.exe \Windows\myfile.cab
I have never tried this command with CAB files but it worked with Windows Mobile EXE files.

HELP !!!!!

Hi i have a TP2 and i installed an app called truecaller (Beta version) now it says its over and i have a screen that tells me its over and to go to website to buy/get newer version ......i cant get rid of that screen and my phone isnt working i have tried a hard reset but nothing it wont connect to my pc ...its locked up i neeed help !!!!!

If you get into the bootloader screen(hold power and down key while restting) you can flash your rom from there. since you allready did a hard reset that wont be much of a leap for you i wouldnt think.

i dont have a down key...if i do a hard reset and start phone with no sim its fine as soon as i add sim and restart i get that damn screen

You said that you installed that program yourself. Then you didn't hard reset. Otherwise the program would be gone. Press the call button + end button + power on. That is the way to hard reset.

i have hard reset about 10 times now ............im gonna try to flash a diff rom and see what happens but im so confused as to what this is all about

Did you already try to contact the maker of the program? Maybe they know of the issue, and also have a solution.

Hi,
"Smart Mobility" screen
I had that problem too, and did a hard-reset.
Hold Volume Up + Volume Down buttons (hold hard) and press Power switch until you see the warning sign to confirm a hard reset.
The system will do a re-flash of the original Windows Mobile ROM.
Start Android by running HaRET from Windows Mobile
Yes, you have to run HaRET.
You can make it simpler by making a short-cut in Windows Mobile Start Menu.
Tap and hold on HaRET until you see the Dialog Box to Cut, Copy, etc.
Tap Copy.
Go to Device-Windows-StartMenu, paste as a shortcut
These steps are in the Touch HD Manual. If you do not have one, download it from the HTC website.

GBX0C2.3.7 Build is on SD card.
You will need to boot from Windows Mobile first, then run HaRET to reboot to XDAndroid.
If XDAndroid hangs, you need to remove battery, put back battery and power on. Then you see Windows Mobile and do above step again.
Always, from XDAndroid to go back to Windows, you need to Power Off, and then Power On again.

You say you are flashing the original ROM. You mean the original HTC Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM? I understand you can only get this done only from HTC authorized centers.

Hi there! I think that you can't reflash even a Original ROM without unlock the phone with new Hard-SPL from Olinex ,considering that you have tried a Hard Reset and nothing happened ,your last option is to unlock the phone and reflash the ship ROM ,or to flash a custom ROM ( is not a good solution if you still have warranty,but still you cand revert your stock SPL:good so ,you have nothing else to lose , all is left for you is to try what i said before . If you don't know how to do it,let me know and i will post the exact links to instructions.

Hi all,
You can try a NAND ROM like the new release of Fagyi. There is an easy step by step manual to installation. You will lose winmo, but you will have a real android.
It looks pretty and he has solved many of the issues of previous versions.
