stucked on 2nd splash screen

hi guys, this might seem to be posted a lot of times but i havent found anyone who experienced the same problem as me. ive flashed a custom rom (not found in xda dev) and the phone went well for 3 weeks to a month.however, today(lunchtime) i had a problem i soft reset my device and i was stuck at the 2nd splashed screen. i dont think my hermes is bricked because i can do anything a normal hermes do before. (pda function, calls, sms) really no problem at all until today. ive done what the wiki said like
Problem 2: stuck on windows mobile screen
Try to soft reset with stylus and wait 5 minutes on the windows mobile screen to see if OS boots
If all you get is same windows mobile screen, remove the battery for some time (about 20 min should be enough) and put it again.
Again, if all you get is same windows mobile screen do a hard reset.
If doesn't solve the problem do a hard reset, but do not press spacebar to reboot after. Instead, do a soft reset with stylus when the device asks you to press spacebar.
Check if you might have the NO GSM Problem
well i cant go pass the 2nd splash screen so what i did was hard reset it. and problems gone. my concern is ive lost a lot of documents because of what happened. so i just wanna ask you guys what could be the problem and the solution to prevent this from happening again.
much respect to all here!
TIA

What do you do just before the problem occur?

best thing to do is hard reset you phone this will reinstall you OS and resolve the problem. You need to old the 2 top soft key and press the reset but with your stylus. This will then bring then take u into the hard reset mode. follow the prompts on ur screen by using your keyboard .
This will work as i have experienced the same problem
kind regards

Did u happen to
a) disable the bottom tray
or
b) set PIE cache to storage card?
Both tend to cause this, tho not in every case.

s200 won't boot into windows anymore

hi,
i recently wanted to simply restart my qtek s200 (g3), it stops at the blue windows mobile boot screen and just hangs and does nothing (i've waited for hours).
I am not using any mods, simply the original rom/software. The only thing extra installed is 3rd party software and the home screen from the new htc touch (i've have been using it for some time now, and yes, i have been able to reboot several times during that period).
I have no idea why it isn't working anymore since I have been using it in an ordinary fashion and have not installed any software lately...
What I have tried so far:
- soft reset
- removing battery, sd card, sim card
- hard reset is impossible due to the fact that my comm button no longer functions.
Any ideas how I can get this phone to boot in windows again?
If there is no "normal" way, then a hard reset would also work for me as the phone contains no important data.
Let me know if you need more info.
Thanks!

Since no hard reset is available... try removing the battery for the whole night.
If you do manage to get to windows then watch out for the startup folder, you're probably overloading the memory at startup.(htc home and psxut eat a lot at startup and windows as well)

i have removed the battery, sim and sd, and just left it there the whole night, but it still won't go further than the windows boot screen...
any suggestions ?
is is possible to do a hard reset by connecting it to usb and enter the bootloader somehow ? if yes, how ?
thanks!

hi,
have you tryed entering bootloader by the normal process?
"Hold down the camera button and reset the device. (Boot Loader Mode is: Press Camera + Soft Reset, then release soft reset and keep pressing camera button till appear the Boot Loader.)"
regards

yes, I can get into the bootloader, I can then also connect with USB with a notification at the bottom of the screen saying it's connected. However, I have no idea what to do afterwards ...

Okay then there is still hope.. When you have connected the device run an opdate tool like the NVID WM5 Rom.. that should work as a hard reset..

are there any working links available for this ? rapidshare seems to have disabled this...
thanks!

As long as you are able to enter bootloader then you can flash it with any old prophet rom. I had the same issue after installing WM6 rom. I used a Spanish rom on wiki to bring it back and then installed WM6 VII touch. So far it has worked well for a week.

HTC 6tab Home screen killed my 818pro!!!!!!
Here is what happened a few days back. My 818pro (aka prophet) suddenly heat up while not in use 3 days ago. I thought it was caused by the hot weather in my country (I was driving with aircond in full blast). The heating up eventually go away. Then 2 day later, after I put down a call, my phone just frozen / hung. Hence, I do a soft reset & guess what It never recovered & stop at the black screen with the dopod logo while restarting. Some service centre I visited told me that the main memory chip need replacement & reflash!!! I can't even see the window screen. I have use the HTC 6tab for 2 months & I am very sure it's the culprit here. Hopefully you are not having the same problem like me
Try plug in the ac charger before u do soft reset. My phone need it in order to restart after soft reset (after I started using the HTC 6tab Home Screen).
That is before my phone die yesterday

Bricked Polaris? I'm getting crazy !

Hi and hope someone could help and calm me down.
I have an original free Polaris with 6.0, and upgraded with the 6.1 rom from the HTC site. Everything was working fine until today that I soft-reseted.
It boots OK but when it shows the password screen, it doesn't allow me to put it. I touch all the screen and nothing happens, the soft options (unlock and Menu) don't respond either.
Last thing I did about 3 days ago was to install Advconfig 3.3 but I don't think this could damage the phone.
I'm not even able to sincronized because ActiveSync tells me to unlock it first.
I'm really getting mad and I'm desperate !!!!
Thanks in advance for anyone who can help ...

the first thing to do is an hard reset.
try it and tell us what happeans

OK, and many thanks in advance for your fast feedback !!!!!
hard reseting . . .

I'm sorry, nothing happened. Just the same symtomps. I hard reseted pressing the explorer and gps button, while presing the soft-reset with the stylus. It seems that the problem is that when I type, the screen doesn't respond, as if the problem where the presure with the stylus.
Continue desperated ...

Bad Hard-reset. I just misunderstood that I had to keep stylus pressed until tha message appeared. Now I'm back again.
One of the worst hours of my life.
Thanks very much for your suggestions, finally it worked.
Best regards.

ok nice

the same happed to me two days ago. I was playing around with the phone(making some screenshots ) when the phone become very very slow. with difficulties I managed to soft reset, but when it tray to restarts it stooped to the white logo.
the solution to me was a ROM Upgrade from official HTC site.
I was in:
R 2.05.51.05m2
G 15.28.50.07w
D1.48.71294
before the update. also have installed :
Co0kie's Home Tab - Extended QuickLinks, Appointments and More
CHTEditor - Co0kie's Home Tab Editor
NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
NEW 100% BATTERY INDICATOR [1% increments]
HD2/Leo 3D Driver Patch
Duttys_Task_Manager
a lot of analogs clocks and planets and i think every kind of emulator and game available for the phone

Just to let you know, my phone did this as well and, long story short..
the problem was the battery..if the pins get bent or damaged
the phone will only show the "pre boot screen" .

[Q] Blackstone freeze on startup after task 29

Hey people, I usually upgrade roms on my blackstone, been 2 years now, all fine, until yesterday after a task 29.{Ypsmav rom} My phone didn't want to start, eternal freeze on start up with the htc logo ..
Can you kindly help me please.Tried several HR, to no avail..

This happend to me, this is what i did to fix it:
Take the batery of the phone
Wait a few minutes and put the batery back on
With the USB Cable unplugged press the Volume Down button and then the Power Button
Plug the USB into the phone (Don't do anything else to the phone)
Run the ROM you downloaded
Select Task 28 and upgrade.
It worked with my Touch HD

task 29 completely formats your phone, including the rom partition, so of course it cannot boot into windows mobile, there is currently no windows mobile on it!
as already pointed out, you need to flash a rom again.

Hm, Got it resolved . Thxs anyway

Hey guys!
I hope it´s ok to use this thread for my question...
I have a big problem with my old Blackstone... I didn´t use it for a long time (because I got a HTC Desire and a Galaxy Tab). Now i started the phone, but it won´t boot. It stucks at the boot screen (HTC Smart Mobility)...
So far so good... So I thought, I´ll do a Hard Reset... Then I saw that the VOL-Buttons are broken... So, HardReset with VOL-Button won´t work.
Is it possible to flash the phone via USB (ActiveSync doesn´t work...)?
Or is the phone broken?
Thanks in advance for help!
Cya

without the use of the volume buttons, it is next to impossible to get the device working again, since your device does not boot into winmo nor can you access the bootloader mode to flash it. your only chance would be to get the volume keys working again, have you tried using them without the back cover and pressing them really deep?

Hey.
Yeah, I've tried to get the Buttons work again, but keys are definitly broken. Something seems to miss on the buttons, so I think the are broken...
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

since you do have another phone, you might want to consider giving away/ selling your blackstone.
lately, i think there are more and more threads with people that have problems with their displays and/or digitizers and they might be willing to buy it for parts or you could donate it to the developers of xdandroid, so they finally have a device to test it on.
or you could search and download the htc blackstone service manual pdf and disassemble the device yourself to fix the buttons.
