can anyone tell me if the registry is reset when a hard reset is performed? for a while my phone has been running incredibly slow and no number of hard resets has fixed it
when you hard reset, it put everything back to how it was!
hmm
it doesn't seem to be doing that, i installed zagat to go on my wizard the other week as did a couple of people i know, it's made all of the devices crash constantly and no number of hard resets are fixing it
How are you "hard reseting"? If by using the stylus in the reset hole then that's a soft reset. A hard reset is performed by holding Record and Camera buttons and reseting with the stylus, then pressing the Send button when instructed to format. You can also "Clear Storage" from Settings\System. You will lose all settings and have to start all over.
i've been doing a true hard reset. i've found the issue now, the software that was causing the problem seems to install something or change the registry settings when connected to the pc even if you don't install the software itself.
i'd recommend to everyone to avoid zagat to go like the plague
Zagat OK
I've been using Zagat for six months without trouble. I have it installed on the miniSD and have about 30 cities. Zagat isn't nearly as useful as Vindigo, but Zagat operates fine. It doesn't have a program running on my PC so there is no mechanism by which the PC could be changing the registry of my MDA through activesync.
Hi,
I've been running my 8125 clocked to 275mhz for over 4 months. This morning I decided to set omapclock to 300 just to see if it'll run at 300mhz. Right after I did that, the phone froze so I did a soft reset. Now it's just keeps on resetting!!!! non-stop and I tried a hard reset (hold down Comm. and Voice command buttons and hold reset) and it does not do a hard reset as it just keeps on resetting and resetting.
PLEASE HELP!
Pull your battery, wait about 5 seconds, put it back in, and try starting your phone. That should stop the cascade soft resetting.
Is it "bad" to reset my MDA by pressing the soft reset button on the side with the stylus, as opposed to holding down the power button? I can save 5 or 10 seconds by using the soft reset, and I'm impatient. XD
But, if this is going to potentially cause me to lose data or something, then I'll avoid using it unless necessary. For instance it really wouldn't be good if I reset my PC like this, instead of shutting it down properly.
somewhere in the manual...it mentions that you can use either to soft reset, however if you made any registry changes, it might not take effect properly if you force the reset, rather than shutting it off with the power button...
I just installed the BatteryStatus today plug in and it was working fine until i turned on the option to show the CPU speed. Then it just hung up. Now when I soft-reset it hangs when loading the today screen. Some of the plugins load but it hangs before BatteryStatus loads, probably while loading it. Any way I can get to my system to change that setting? I would prefer to not do a hard reset. But if I do, how do I do a hard reset?
Sounds like a hard reset to me....Hold down the two keys with the dot's on them next to your phone buttons and hit the reset button while pressing the reset switch and hold them down for a second or two longer. If you have a Memory card in on the 6800 I hear you may want to take it out if you don't want it cleared as well...good luck.
hmmm I went to do a hard reset... saw on another site that you press all the buttons and press reset. I pressed all the side buttons OK, Voice, On, Comm, Camera and hit the reset.
It went to a screen with red, green and blue (i think) bars and said USB at the bottom. Then I unplugged it from the USB and it switched to say serial. And it just stayed there. I didn't know what to do so I just soft reset it at that point. It then booted up and was working fine. Looks like the changes I made since the last soft reset had been cleared (I think) and it was now working fine and all my stuff was still on my phone (it doesnt look like it did a hard reset).
Was that not a hard reset that I did? or was it something else?
Sounds like you entered bootloader mode. I'm surrprised that a SOFT RESET took you back.......
You just did a Soft Reset from Bootloader mode, which to my knowledge is exactly the same as a regular Soft Reset.
A Hard Reset wil completely reset your device to original ROM status and wipe out all of your info/contacts/mail... ect.
If the Soft Reset fixed the problem then good deal.
I installed same app, had same problem and did hard reset. My problem was getting phone service working again. About 15 min. with VZW connection tech, entered a 26 digit number authentication key through EPST.exe system program to get my phone service back.
I also had the same problem as well. With a battery status deal like what your describing. All i did was soft reset a **** load of times and plug in my pw real fast and it came back. I have a scrolling task now that display all of it with 0 problems. I have it if you want it. Pm me your email.
Weird, I had tried a soft reset a few times and it kept coming back with the same thing, hanging halfway through loading the today screen. Maybe I just got lucky that time.
try this, i like alot with 0 problems
My GF's phone has a strange fault. After windows crashed she plugged it into the charger and the hard reset screen came up saying this will erase all your personal data etc.
No matter what I do I cannot get rid of this screen. Pressing enter does not complete the hard reset and attempting a hard reset has no effect. Soft reset has no effect either.
The phone has the official HTC wm6.1 update on it but i cannot get it to display exactly what rom's it has unfortunatley.
Has anyone had this problem or know how to fix it?
