yea, i got a HTC Titan (P4000) for 2 years now,and its been actin up pretty wierd, freezing.. and all.. but now last night, i couldnt soft reset, i didnt have a pen handy nor stylus..so i had to rmv de battery.. thing i dont like to do..
then it ask me to tap screen to setup... wtf??! .. i did anyways..cause i knew that i had to sync and everything wouldve been fine.. but then after doin to complete installation.. it tells me no radio.
no radio.
ok.
now im fcked.
but not quite.. "cause i can access bootloader to update firmware" NOT.
i press power + camera button, then the reset button, and it keeps loading to the htc screen, then says no radio.
i know hard reset is the two soft keys held + reset button
but bootloader???
i cant get to it!!!! lots been sayin they be stuck in it.. lol i cant even get in a mofo.. damn it lol
what am i to do?
Are you holding all three buttons in for a few seconds?
yea, i press power + camera + reset, while its on, cause once u press power it turns on..
..i did have some physical issue with the buttons because of humidity, but. they all worked when pressed harder.. i even opened the p4000, removed the casing, pressed them directly,.. nothin.. it still goes to the HTC logo, then after 5-10 secs, it says No Radio.
is it really power+cam+reset?? i read somewhere that i had to press the Ok button.. .. awhh.. shh. well i tried the one on the side.. but not the front one..
Hmm. It is for sure power and camera on right side of phone. And reset on the bottom side of the phone.
ok..well.. lol i dunno man, seems like i got a phone that wants to stay dumb..
if its humidity.. i could try to clean the cam button.. but..
its really reallly tiny.. i dunno if its really that either..

Well, this has happend to me a couple of times too, just hard reset.
Push Camera + Comm manager button together, then soft reset, but keep holding the camera and comm button.
When you get a message, click the green phone.
yeah, not sure what you're yelling, but i think your phone resets and only goes to a white screen and sits there?
happned to me and i almost cried. tried hard resets and nothing. left battery out for a day and nothing. i left it out again for a few hours cause i was pissed, put it in at 4am, did another hard reset and it started to work like normal, though resetted. keep trying!
I'd try all the stuff mentioned and make sure it is plugged in to the power supply.
hard reset and bootloader
for hard reset after you press both cam and comm button press soft reset the trick is dont release bot cam and comm bottons untill it prompts. finally press green button.
for boot loader device must be connected to crable or power. and press cam and power button then press soft reset. still the sam don release power and cam button until you see the color screen.
im trying to hardreset my p4350, but nothing is working.
i tried with an earring and i can't really feel the reset button in the hole on the bottom.... i can't get it to hardreset.. i hold down the two softbuttons which i finally figured out are the lines not the red and green and not ok/windows... anyway... i hold htem down, press the reset hole, then nothing.
do you do this with windows trying (and failing) to boot, or with the power off? i've tried it both ways with no sucess =(
so you also cannot softreset????
try a hardreset by "start - settings - delete storage (or so)" i guess.
but i cannot belive that you even cannot softreset. and when you can softreset - you should be able to hardreset

holdin the softkeys for 5 sec and once pressing the reset button should do the trick.
but when nothing happens.....
simply throw off the battery for 10 secs, then put it again, press power button shortly and press softkeys and hold it. it will help you without reset!

The hole in the "bottom" ie. next to the charging / sync port is your microphone - please do NOT go poking around in there, or you will wind up with a non-working phone.
The reset button on a Wing is on the left side, directly below the volume slider. A paper clip or ball point pen should work, if you don't have a stylus.
Good luck!

I erally, really hope that this is not the soulution.....

Were you able to get it to reset by using the correct button? If so, does your microphone still work - have you tried placing a call to see if the other person can hear you?
Good luck!

Have you tried restarting the phone? Press and hold the powerbutten (if it works), and answer Yes to the question about shutting down. Take out your battery for 10 seconds, put it back in and fire up your phone... It might help

Hehe, can't answer that. I've had the problem only like twice in three months, so for me it's not a problem... I guess it's a software problem. Remember, it's not a Nokia The inside so much more complicated, so I guess we just have to live with some bugs...
Are you guys sure that this is a hardware related problem? I have the same prob and i was quite sure that i f**ked up the capacitative panel by playing kevtris manickly for quite a long time.
The capacitative screen is comprised by two parts folded.
I have opened the diamond and i found out that there is a lietle piece of metal that binds them together. This was bent(from kevtris probably) so istraightened it out with my bear hands. But it did not fix the problem. Do not try it anyway. Too messy if you have two left hands like me.
Have you ever seen a calibrator for the capacitative screen?
had the same problem only the power button would work , hard reset fixed it.
Have u installed S2U2..try uninstalling it...or install latest version 1.68 of S2U2
My phone kept freezing on the CHT Lock screen today and I couldn't get passed it. So I was holding it, plastic fork in one hand, phone in the other, not realizing I was also pushing one of the volume buttons and hit the red button with my plastic fork at Chipotle.
All of the sudden my phone rebooted to a screen that looks like a Rom Flashing screen with the weird bars of color. As soon as I saw this I hit the end button and it turned off. Then I started it back up and it was fine.
Just wondering what holding the volume button and hitting the red reset button at the same time do.
Thanks.
Sounds like a Hard Reset
Sounds like you initiated a hard reset. Volume up would have continued the process. Does not sound like there was any harm done!
Thanks. That's good to know. Hard Reset wouldn't have been the end of the world since all of my contacts are on my exchange server and all of my data is on my card and backed up on my pc.
Yeah that would come in pretty handy if that is the only you would be able to do a hardreset...if you where stuck and needed to bring your phone back!
i'm sure this has been done to death, but, through my searching, i haven't found an actual concrete solution.
i purchased a g1, knowing that it was stuck at the rainbow screen. i thought it'd be an easy fix, but, in my case, it seems not. i'm a uk user, so have flashed the rc7 update, and NOT the 29 one. yes, i pressed the camera button, and THEN the power button, whilst the g1 was turned off. once successfully flashed/completed, i press the 'action'/trackball key, take the battery out, and turn the phone on, only to see that the rainbow screen is STILL there.
what you might need to know:
DREA110 PVT 32B
HBOOT-0.95.0000
CPLD-4
RADIO-1.22.12.29
Sep 2 2008
Serial0
so, if anyone has a full-proof solution that will get my g1 working again, i'll be extremely grateful. if not, i'll put it on e-bay. is it possible that my g1 is permanently bricked?
How about NOT pressing the trackball?
However note that pressing the trackball during bootup SHOULD put the thing into BLUELIGHT mode (debug console).
Typically, if it turns on straight into the bootloader, it means that your CAMERA or BACK button is stuck. Try pressing each of those buttons a few times and then turning it on again. If not, you may need to disassemble.
but, i mean, once the phone says Update Complete
UPDATE SUCCESS,press action (trackball) key,that's when i press the trackball key, as it tells me to. the camera and back buttons certainly don't feel stuck, ...

I don't care what they feel like. One if them is stuck.

He is right, if it boots into bootloader (rainbow screen) that means your camera button is stuck, even if it doesn't feel like it.
i just took apart my htc dream... im experience a similar problem.... i measure the ohms on the switch for the camera button, open, it shows about half contiunity on my multimeter(analog), and when the button is pressed, it registers a full short, as it should, on both sides of the switch. I will try unsoldering the camera button at some point tomorrow, and will try to post my results.
does anyone know if those switches are meant to be completely open when not pressed??
EDIT: will be heading out to my job in the next hour to use the hot air station to remove the camera button, and clean up the contacts on the board... if this doesnt work, does anyone else have any other ideas??

ok, so i just unsoldered the camera button off the main board, and it still comes up to the bootloader.... what next?? ive flashed the dreaimg.nbh file, and wiped the phone. i can press the home and pwr button and get the recovery menu, but even there, flashing anything *.zip doesnt make a difference... ideas now??
EDIT:So i just got another g1 with a cracked screen... i switched out the mainboard. with a different mainboard that worked from a different phone, it still came up to the bootloader screen... i then switched the buttons, not the camera button, ironically, the other buttons.. i switched the whole front plate(send, home, back, end, menu buttons/trackball panel). now the original mainboard works fine... just no camera button cuz my hot air station at work killed the button. try that and let us know here. see if that works for you....
EDIT2: Heres a thread that i just opened with that last explaination, as well as a story to how my day preceded with this phone... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=781143 enjoy!
