I just got a Prophet which was flashed to a WM6.1 ROM. I did a hard reset but now I get to the start screen where I am supposed to unlock it, but the touchscreen doesn't seem to work. I press the Left soft button to do the unlock process, but when I tap the unlock button that comes up nothing happens, as if the touchscreen is not working.
Touchscreen is confirmed to be alive before the hardreset, any ideas what happened? I don't even know why it's locked on startup usually you do the configuration stuff after a hard reset (Must be the ROM that's on it)
I am thinking I will have to flash a new ROM but if there is a way to fix it without reflashing that would be better.
Nevermind guys, I don't know what went wrong but a quick re-flash fixed it.

I seldom activate MrTrueVGA. But tonight I did that for reading one PDF.
It leads me to hard reset the device right after a soft reset.
But the nightmare is ---
after hard reset, I press ACTION key to restore factory default as suggested. It takes few seconds to finish the default restore. Then I was asked to press POWER KEY to boot.
the device doesn't boot at all. just go back to the previous screen: 'Press ACTION to restore factory default or press Camera Key to exit'
If I press Camera Key, it just simply refresh the screen.
Seems the AMEO has entered an endless loop...
I have to try resetting the device in different way...
Now I mange to get the a dark screen as well as the ACTION key with Green light on.
any idea what mode is it (green light)?
Seems the OS couldn't startup after restoring factory setting. I guess I have to put the origin ROM back to the device instead of the updated WM6.
Continues tomorrow...
I've used it on my Athena with WM6 without a problem. Maybe something else is going on.
Is that an official release of WM6 for your device? I have no problem with MvRTrueVGA what so ever....
Have you tried flashing your device again?
I got my Ameo into a very similar loop. I took the battery out for a few minutes, then when re-inserted, I was able to "see" the Ameo from Sync Centre and re-flash the ROM...
Monocube SafeMode2 saved my butt various time with truevga..
the WM6 is download from here (t mobile version). I am looking for a way to flash back origin version.
BTW, other softwares I run after starup: USB mousr driver, WM5storage.
Sounds like the OS got killed. reflash the device
Thanks Olipro, I am a bit regret that if I had run your hard-SPL, probably i wouldn't experienced this problem.
The symptom do like OS got kill for some reason. I am wondering anyone had tried to hard reset after flashing WM6 ROM?
more update will come...
update:
reflashing ROM image solves the problem.
but i still believe MrTrueVGA caused the problem. Somehow it causes the conflict and blow up the OS.
I use MvRTrueVGA on WM5 and WM6 on my Ameo without problems.
(only smaller graphical bugs)
even changing the resolution never took me more than one soft reset
forget to mention, i use another software "scree orientation" at the same time.
maybe these two chaps don't work well together.
Hello,
I just uninstalled the Arabic support package (Pocket Arabizer Suite v2). Afterwards, I am not able to use my wing to make calls. I even tried to search for network and couldn't find any. I was thinking if I reinstall the Arabic package might help. Unfortunately, ActiveSync is not working no more as well. Also, I tried hard reset (by holding the 2 soft keys along with soft rest) but it wont reset.
Anyone got a clue ?
When you hard reset did you keep holding down the softkeys after you pressed the soft rest button? When done correctly a prompt to soft reset should come up after about 5 seconds
yes, I did
no one got a clue?
Go into bootloader mode and run the TMO RUU.
I was tryin to avoid that. But, I just done it
Thanks
i was loading the Touch-IT v2.3 beta for wing rom when i got an error and my phone froze up and would not connect to the pc so i soft reset it and now my tmobile screen freezes on load if anyone could help me it would be great.
I got the bootloader runing but i just wanted to see should i try installing the rom again or reload the original 1
Try to install official Tmo RUU
Try pressing and hold camera and then press into the soft reset hole if its the wing and then try and run the hard spl...if that doesnt work then im clueless....hope i helped...
k thanks i got it now
i ve got the same problem.. how di you fix your??s
Try a hard reset push the soft reset button on the side and hold both of the soft keys keep holding the soft keys until a black screen comes up with white lettering. than press the call button hoped that helped
Sorry quick thread hijack.. im reading here and getting ready to unlock/flash my girlfriend's tmobile wing and was wondering.. if you brick your phone, does a hard reset always return your phone to working, OEM condition? or is it possible that you could permanently damage it beyond hard resetting repair?
Thanks!
you can brick your phone beyond repair, but its actually rather hard to do so. Most people THINK they've bricked their phones, but they actually haven't. Just HardSPL the phone, and it will be virtually unbrickable.
Hard reset essentially reflashes your rom over your current installation. it wont return it to the original rom that came with the phone, but i will reset everything.
thanks! i'll remember that.
Hi everybody,
on my Trinity hard reset doesn't work anymore. After for example flashing with a new rom bootloader just blinking. OS is booting normally but hard buttons doesn't work only the "joypad" in the middle. For hardreset i have to press Send button to accept hard reset when i remeber well. But nothing happend when pressing the button. In fact that the device wants a hardreset, softreset is the same problem. I have to replace battery to access OS and boot device. Has anybody a solution? Or is there a progam for WM which can make a hardresend?
€dit:
Is it possible that something is wrong with the bootloader?
thanks and best
Robbat
Just loaded another keyboard cab and suddenly on soft reset/reboot the phone has frozen at the HTC logo and the screen showing the RGD info... won't reboot easily and takes many attempts to get back to this screen.. but will go no further.
So to do a search, what keywords should I be using or does anyone recognise this and have an answer.. have tried reset, battery out but nothing is working, the screen is just locked the screen mention above.
Using Laurentius26 GoldEdition V2.1 rom and was loading Touch-Keypad.Cab..
It is not connecting to the pc, so I can't reflash it at this time..
if you're phone wont boot since you installed this then looks like a hard reset is on the way mate sorry, you could try boot without mem card but doubt that will make a difference
Could you quickly remind me of the sequence for hard reset, red reset button doesn't seem to do a lot and I do have everything backed up so its not a problem... cheers.
press and hold both volume buttons and tap the power button. Keeping holding both volume buttons until it asks you if you want to factory reset the device. When it does tap volume up and it will then go off and do it's thing.
if the crash was the first time you had soft reset since youi installed the cooked rom, (even if you had been using it a while) it could be a mismatched radio. (Sometimes the rom/radio mismatch doesnt show till the first restart.)
Look at the R on the boot screen, if it has .51. in the version, then flash a new radio.
Thanks for all the help.. have managed to recover, restart and reflash, then reload, so we are all sweet now.. cheers..
