Please excuse my ignorance...Just got the phone about a month ago. If I perform a hard reset will I be able to restore all my calendar appointments if I sync it with my PC (outlook)? I think a hard reset is in order because occassionally my phone turns off by itself and I need to turn it on to reboot. Happens a couple times a day. I haven't installed any programs on my own. Phone is identified as htc 4350 ROM 4.17.405.2. Thanks.
I should mention that when this happens the phone is in it's case. I don't think any buttons are getting pushed..Doesn't seem likely that the power button is pushed and held in..

Anyone have this problem?
Two things going on...I had the miniSD card out for a while and after soft resets the unit is creating a folder called "StorageCard" and renaming my real card to "StorageCard2". That is at least a problem I can try to work with.
But later that same evening, I tried to upgrade DinarSoft TapText from 1.1 to 1.3. Lots of problems and never did get it upgraded. Now my phone hangs at the blue Windows Mobile screen.
I have been able to get it to come up again twice by taking the battery out for a while, but the next soft reset produces the same frozen screen.
During one of the times it was working, I restored with Sprite the system folders (didn't both restoring the data). It soft reset and came back fine, but not since then.
I pressed the hard buttons to hard reset, get a black screen that tells me to press the Send button to restore factory defaults. I press the send button and it hangs at the blue screen again.
I have several backups, but I can't get to use them!
Has anyone experienced this?
Have you tried clearstorage or VJEschaton?

If I can get the unit to finish booting once more, I will try clearstorage That is the only way I have had to hard reset in the past.
And I should havbe know you would have an app for this, too
But since I can't get it to boot to install it or read the card...I think I am stuck until I can get past that point.
I have the battery out now and am truly appreciating my phone fetish and my three other phones
2+ hours with no battery and it came backup. Then I could use ClearStorage and restore from several days ago...to make sure I didn't restore the problem.
Thanks for the suggestions!
I tried installing spb pocket plus and, just after it installed, my Wizard didn't seem to be responding so I tried soft resetting it. On booting up it showed the O2 splash screen and then the Windows Mobile screen but nothing else. The screen goes dark as the backlight is turned off but you can still see the Windows Mobile screen showing. Each time I soft reset the same thing happens.
I've tried soft resetting about 4-5 times now and the same thing happens again. I've even taken the battery out and put it back in and the same thing happens. I was going to try reinstalling the O2 XDA firmware but as I can't get the Wizard to connect to ActiveSync I can't do that.
Has anyone got any ideas? At the moment I'm without my phone & all the PDA functions on the phone and I really want it back.
Thanks for any advice.

Think you may need to do a hard reset to put it back to it's factory state. Should work then.
Thanks, I'd been trying to do a hard reset but it didn't seem to work - then it occurred to me that I was actually pressing the wrong button to confirm the reset!
Hard reset works and gets it up and running again although, from checking, it seems that there's some problem between sdp pocket plus (3.0.0.3888) as I've now installed that about 3-4 times and each time, after doing a soft reset, the Wizard crashes and won't respond.
Hi!
I've had my TyTN for about six months now and i haven't encountered anything like this. Yesterday my phone did a hard reset by itself. The phone had got slow and eventually, it didn't do anything so i pressed the reset button with the stylus. The phone rebooted but it took a bit longer than it usually does, and after the HTC-screen I got a that blue start screen which says "Tap the screen with the stylus to start using your phone" or something like that.
After setting it up all the messages, contacts and calendar notes (and of course everything else on the phone) had disappeared. After a few minutes the phone got stuck again; it didn't do anything even I tried to close the programs I had running (messaging and calendar). So I left it alone for a while to "think" but after app. 5 minutes it was still in the same situation so i pressed the reset button again with the stylus, the boot screen came on and nothing happened after that. I tried to reset it again - nothing. I took the battery out and replaced it - nothing. Nothing seemed to help. I did the hard reset and the phone worked normally again.
Has anyone any ideas what happened? I'm perfectly sure that I didin't press the soft keys while resetting the phone so I haven't done the hard reset myself. I'm going for a holiday to Germany and it wouldn't be very nice if something like this happened during the trip. I have guarantee left on the phone so I'll take it to the service shop.
Hi to all. I need your help.... I have my HD, it has the original ROM and the original hardware... Of course I installed a lot of programs. Since I bought it (5 months ago) I have never had problems. 3 days ago I installed the phat notes and the key from ppcwarez... After I installed and using the program, when the device turns off after 1 minute I can't turn it ot again.- I mean, I push the power button and nothing, but If I make a soft reset the device turns on, but then again, if the screen turns off I can't turn it on...
I deleted, the program phat notes and the keygen, and then made a hard reset and installed all the buck up files I had... So, everything went fine for half a day. I used all the applications I usually do and worked fine. Yesterday night I played poker with my HD and then I sincronised it with my PC. After that, the problem started again.... The same problem, when the screen turns off, I can't turn it on, only with a soft reset... I've just made another hard reset, and everything works fine, but I don't know when the problem will come back...
anyone can help me and tell me what Can I do to check if everything is ok?
thanks in advance
Try to flash another ROM as Dutty 3.9XT, make sure your device is CID unlock before by flashing the HARDSPL with the last one, 1.56.
When I using IGO8, its sudenly freeze and I made soft reset. And its turned off and after push again power button and turned on after a 2 minutes its turned off again and no more open. it has %80 batarry life and when I connect again to adaptor but no charging no red light.
I went to phone fixer last day and he said its main software is down and we must connect a jet..... like hardware and he wants 700$.
its not acceptable price.
in my country this kind of devices so experience and I bought this device from germany and I changed rom and no more warranty.
I want to ask you who knows jet...... like device to rescue touch hd or any solution to fix it. I think this is not board problem just software failure but I tried to make hard reset, soft reset, batarry change but no one is not open my device again.
Did you try a hard reset?
I have the same problem
hey redoxian, i have the same problem as you, but it is not about IGO8 or any other problem, my device went crazy after 100% battery charge to 57% after a freez then got dead after then, no battery change or hard, soft reset appeared to be effective in my case, and its german by the way. I have just delivered my device to the maintenance office dedicated for htc devices and i haven't yet recieved any report, promised if i reached any thing i will tell unless u have any news about this issue.

Did you hard reset as Harmageddon suggested. Does problem still occur? Have you read/searched or asked this question in iGo8 thread?

How do you mean hard reset not functioning at all. You have 2 methods of hard resetting:
1.
Turn off device, then hold both vol up & down and turn on device. You should be presented with a white screen and blue text. Press vol up to hard reset.
or
2.
Go to Start > settings > system > clear storage
