My camera died for no reason, it says "unable to switch to preview mode, failed to set up the camera device"
i did flash the radio again but it didn't work, tried switch off and take the battery out for more than 15 mins and it didn't work either.
PLS HELP !! i dont want to hard reset my phone
If I'm not mistaken... there is a .CAB file floating around somewhere within this section that has the "original" (OEM) HTC Camera that can simply be installed... perhaps that could resolve your issue.
Otherwise, as far as I know... if it's related to things such as the camera, a hard reset is often advised to prevent any further issues.
tried to install leo camera 6.26 to my phone it didnt work, do u think its the radio problem? my leo is currently running 2.08 radio.

i am on the pc for 8-10 hours to solve the problm on this ****ing s200, after a hard reset the device start to work well , but when i ll do a soft reset it could not establish a connection with the pc again moreover "error opening the shortcut or locating the target filename" is shown when i click the comm manager button. i assume that it may be a problem because of the rom version, although i search all the forum and some other sources i cant find a s200 rom which is working, finally i installed the altest version of 818 pro 2.15.13.27 which i founded in the forum. then when i install some software and make a soft reset the device refuse to open and the calibration screen is shown. i dont know what is happened but i am sure that there are some hardware problem. i dont know if somebody else have this kind of problem?? i have also a jamin and it works perfectly with its latest rom. finally give a few dollars more and buy jamin if you really want to use those htc staff...
ps: I am not sure but maybe if s200 ROM will be installed the problem is solved but it refused to install an older rom , now all the soft reset cause the setup screen of windows!!!
Hi all,
Since last friday I'm the happy owner of an S200, until sunday atleast. After a soft-reset, initiated from windows, my device won't boot anymore. It hangs in the red-green-blue bootloader screen (says: IPL 2.09, SPL 2.09). I've tried soft-resets and hard-resets, but the device would consequently keep hanging in the bootloader.
So for the past few days I've been searching the web and just managed to update the ROM. I was expecting that updating the ROM succesfully would mean my device would boot again, but it still keeps hanging in the bootloader (saying IPL 2.09 SPL 2.15 now, so the update did take place).
Does anyone has any idea whats wrong with my phone? Or how to fix this? Please help.
* bump *
I've been searching further and tried to do a SD dump, but I'm getting the message I don't got enough rights to perform a SD dump. This meens my S200 isn't CID unlocked. Is there any way to CID unlock the device without the need of booting into WM?
The solution to your problem
Hello, if you are having bootloader screen right after starting your mobile (prophet) check if your camera button is depressed since i had the similar problem. In my case i had to disassembly the phone in order to fix it. Right after fixing the button it worked fine
hi syzzer,
i really feel with you - why? - i have the exactly same problem. after i tried to upgrade my rom from o2-germany to another one the device isn't starting anymore and hangs in the beautiful-colored bootloader. and now, if i just even want to re-install the same or another rom, doesnt matter which one, the s200 wont start again. i think this is a really unlucky situation for us to stand alone with our weak pda =) hoping for more help, otherwise we have to take up our warranty and try to get it fixed by the store we did buy it (if a rom-update damage is still in warranty )
good luck
budy!

hello Syzzer
I have the same problem, but i make a soft reset and it works.
Camera but + Com Button + Power
Wait until message appear.
You Get the message : For Hard reset press send
If you choose other key the system boots normaly.
I had already tried all your suggestions, but nothing seemed to work.
About a month ago I bought a Trinity. In the mean while, I forgot I had put my S200 in my bag and carried it around for a month. When I found it a week ago and started pressing random buttons, it suddenly booted and has been working ever since! The problem has gone as mysterious as it came. I can only imagine there was some hardware failure / dirt in my device that caused the trouble and is now gone / moved to some place it does not do harm. Because I already bought a Trinity, I gave the S200 to my brother. He's been using it ever since and did not have any problems. So keep your head up, there's hope!
I m also having the same problem
Now I am having the same problem, no button is pressed, and I can not install the NVID ROM
Actually I can install only a few ROMs, the NVID ROM was working before on my Neo perfectly but, I think it can be because I have changed many ROMs, from a month, actually I have tried different WM6 ROMs and I used NVID ROMs mostly for Step 1.
Now when I install any ROM, it shows a msg some nbf one after 80% or 95%
It can install the pdaviet first step ROM, but now the problem is that it hangs very much and it can not start Wifi, it has stopped working, a few more ROMs i have tried, but the WIFI is completely stopped.
When I press it in communication manager, it will show busy icon for a few seconds and will not start it in end.(I tried it in both WM5 and WM6, same problem, I also tried after soft reset and hard reset, the problem is still there)
Please someone help me out.
As the title says, I have an Elf & when you press the power button (which is meant to turn the screen on and off) it shuts the device off instantly.
I first tried doing a hard reset
Then I tried another rom, to see if it was to do with the OS
& then I tried two other roms.
Ive still got the same problem.
Thinking of taking it back to the place I got it.
Anyone got any thoughts on any solution before I take it back?
Im thinking its a hardware problem that I cant really solve.
which spl are you using? I had a similar prob when i upgraded my rom to 6.1, but aftr using 3.07 spl, problems were gone..
I was using 3.07, but it doesnt matter now.
I took it back to the shop (with all accessories etc) and they replaced it for me. I feel bad about hastling them.
I took them an Elf, but apparently they have given me a Elfin, but on their system, they both just come up as p3450
But it works! thats the main thing.
and its gold and shiny.
Maybe somebody know how to solve this problem without turn elf back to the shop?)
I have same problem but haven't a chance to turn it back) 3.07 spl also
I had exactly this problem before I knew I have an Elfin.
I flashed Elf Roms on my Elfin, that caused the problem.
It boots regularly, but it will do a soft reset every X
minutes. Then I flashed an Elfin Rom and everything
works fine ^^
Maybe I'm wrong, but i think its Elf. It has 64Ram & 128 Flash, or they may not correctly view after flash or i dont understand differences?
It boots regulary every X minutes because it goes to sleepeng mode if device is not using. If this option off, it will not boot by its own, only if i press power button(
I have had this issue a couple of times with new ROMS. All installs fine, but when I soft reset, or take the battery out and put it in, it get stuck on the HTC screen.
Any one else had this issue / know what to do?
it was the radio. i installed a newer radio and the problem ceased
Hi everyone,
I've unplugged my HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) while it was synchronizing with windows 7 and stock on synch. with no actual progress, then I removed the battery but only the "smart mobility" and RGD displayed and then nothing happened "black screen".
Do any one knows what happened and to fix it back to normal?
Thanks,
Suficom,
I think that the register and/or the system files and/or the ROM's software of your phone were damaged somehow with a little or high intensity that I'm unable to especify now.
If you did'nt get it fixed yet, try to remove SIM and SD cards and then restart the BlackStone (it worked to me once...lol). If negative, try a Hard Reset on that. If it don't work too, I'd advise you to put a new ROM on your HTC; but be aware that doing this two last procedures, you will loose all out of the information of yours that isn't placed on the SD card.
Tell us your progress!
Good Luck!
Stay in peace!
If it was just synchronizing you can just do a hard reset (hold vol down + power). This will reset your phone to factory conditions.
If you were flashing a rom which failed, you should download a rom and flash it to your phone. You can download the stock rom from the HTC site.
