My Trinity is stuck at the hard reset screen where it says "Press SEND to restore factury default, press END to quit". I've tried to hard reset it as it told me to, but it's still stuck. I've also tried to flash it with a new ROM, but that's hard as it's unable to establish an activesync connection. Is there any way I can fix this myself ?

Have you got to the multi coloured screen after doing the hard reset (Power button+Camera button+soft reset)? If yes then you should be able to plug your Trinity into the PC and flash a Rom.
I had a similar problem while trying to flash a new rom and this worked for me. You could also try removing the battery for more than 3 secs then powering up and attempting the above tasks. Best of luck, most of all don't give up and keep searching the forums.
No, it just went back to the hard reset screen again. But I found out, I placed the buttons wrong when I changed them, so the two softbuttons were pressed all the time. It's fixed now.
ANYONE PRO one can help ME plz...........
Why My HTC WIZARD Not Enough battery energy is it will stuck back at hard reset ??
This is my third hard reset and the first 2 times I was not that peeved at all but this time around I am quite pissed at this phone! I was careful with what I am installing and it was after getting the latest TMO update. Btw, I have TMOUS and stock (newer one). Anyway, I was not even doing anything at all when my phone froze, I was simply going to turn off the alarm (I use SPB Time).
Anyway, I soft reseted and it is stuck at the Stick Together screen. Tried many times and no luck so I just thought, wth, just hard reset.
The first two times I hard reseted, it was automatic since I got a message on my phone but this time there was no message so I decided to use the volume buttons and the end key button. The first time I tried it, I ended up with the tricolor screen and nothing. No message about 'this will erase blah blah.' I tried again several hours later and it finally gave me the message about pressing the volUP button to proceed with hard reset so I did. And after just TWO seconds, I saw RESTORE COMPLETE, press volUP to boot so I did and NOTHING. I am still stuck at the Tmobile Stick Together screen after reboot!!! I did this three times (volUP, endkey, hard reset, volUP) and it was always fast. I don't remember it being that fast before.
Can someone please just tell me what I can do to just get it work again? Does this mean I just bricked this frickin' phone??? I have not flashed a ROM (except perhaps to do the TMOUS update). Can I still make this work?
(I don't know where to post this so I apologize if this is the wrong one. But I thought since a lot of people are flashing their roms in this thread, someone have seen something similar to mine and can help).
I love this phone but this is ridiculous.
things to try

Try removing your memory card and doing hard reset. If that doesnt work try removing both memory card and your sim card and doing a hard reset. If that doesnt work try loading an original stock LEOIMG.nbh file onto your memory card and flashing from your memory card.
BTW, should be BOTH up and down volume keys and power button to get to hard reset screen. Then volume up to restore.
Hope that helps.

I did mean volume UP and DOWN. Anyway, I tried your suggestions but same result. Still stuck.
So I proceed as if I am updating to the newer T-Mobile version. I followed the steps posted here:
http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm54430.xml?
However, when it came to the part where I had to make sure I have active sync established, I actually could not tell as it shows on my PC that I am not connected but at this point I really have nothing to lose. However, that said, in bootloader mode on my phone I see USB when I connect the phone to PC and then it reverts to SERIAL when I disconnect. So I thought, what the heck, it seems to be connected. AND VOILA, I was able to flash using TMO's updated ROM (the one I had just before all these mishap). WHEW! As much as I hate hard resets, I'd take it over bricking.
Thank God for TMo's excellent instructions on that site. I tried reading the instructions for flashing here and I just could not understand all these SPL, HARDSPL2 crap.
If I have to do another hard reset after I set this all up again I am going to scream!!!
So, my Windows live account got screwed and went to infinite syncing loop and I will probably need to hard reset the phone to get rid of it (which sucks without backup possibility), so I have couple questions and since I didnt found direct answer to them, I am starting this thread (delete it if its answered elsewhere please).
1. If I reset the phone from WP7 menu in settings, I will probably have to unlock and install everything from scratch, right?
2. I read somewhere, that if I remove battery when phone is on, it will hard reset and I will have to do unlock etc.?
3. Is there a way how to reset the phone without loosing apps and their data? I gues it is not, but I will ask anyway
perform a simple soft-reset by pressing the red button underneath the battery-cover.
And what will this do? How does the soft reset act in WP7? And what about the battery removal.
Well, seem that nobody is interested in this topic, but anyway. I have tried to reset phone from menu and hard reset the phone. It seems, that hard reset also formats memory card again, while reset from menu just erases all data. I also tried to remove the battery when phone was running and nothing was deleted. Just if anyone is interested
Hi, I've rooted my Nook with Touchnooter and everything's been great, except today the latest issue of the New Yorker wouldn't download. I got some sort of formatting error. A BN chat rep wants me to do a hard reset. What will this do to the Touchnooted side of things?
Depends on what he mean by a hard reset..
Simply holding the power button for ~10s to reset the NST won't do any harm.
If you do a Factory Reset (booting while holding left and right bottom buttons) you will have to reapply TN.
Yeah, I was a afraid of that. He wants me to do the latter. I'll try option one first, though.
Thanks for the quick reply.
Hey guys,I have this unfortunately bla bla has stoped working error and so many apps on my phone have this problem.
So i factory reseted my phone but the error didnt gone.i think the reason is that my phone didnt factory reset fully because after factory reset some of my keyboard customization and other stuff didnt changed,only erased my internal storage
My phone is not rooted so what you guys suggest about fixing this problem or full factory reset ?
Did you try to hard reset with volume down and power button?

Thanks for your answer but that keys are used when the phone is hanged and you cant RESTART the phone with the normal way.

This message I get quite often. Applications which I last noticed is SportsTracker. Before SportsTracker it was Google+ which is now OK - probably any update of Google+ prevent this error. But anyway it sucks! I haven't find solution for this .. if hard reset does not work who knows where the problem is..
