I am a bit of a newbie...
My device was working perfectly. THen I started up AIM this morning and it froze. I reset it, but now when it powers up, it is frozen, nothing works or happens. If I call the device the phone doesn't even ring. NO clue how to fix it and any info would be much appreciated.
Thats very strange. Try pulling out the battery and let it sit for about a minute or 2. If that doesnt work, then try to return it for a new one. If you somehow get into the start menu, go to settings and then the system tab. Click on "Clear Storage" witch will reset the device back to the way it was when you first took it out of the box. Yes, you will loose all info stored in the PDA but its better than not being able to use it at all. But this does tend to fix 80% of problems.
I had a similar problem today... I installed netframework and after that it stop responding.... the only working thing is the power button and when I press it the only thing I can do with the stylus is select yes or not... other then that wherever I type it does nothing!!! have you solve it?

Ok, I dont want to sound all noobish but I did check all the stickies for help before I resorted to this.
I was messing around with my phone and tried overclocking it from 247 to 273 and then the screen got all crazy.
After a few restarts and finally leaving it alone, BatteryStatus finally automatically disabled itself somehow. I thought it was safe to turn it back on but then the same thing happened and now it wont re-disable.
Does anyone know of any way of disabling BatteryStatus without being able to navigate through the phone menus(like via USB connection to a pc)? Or do I have to reinstall the original T-Mobile RUU all over again?
Thanks in advance
The same thing happened to my exgf's Wing when I gave her batterystatus on the Stock rom.
you may be able to use MY MOBILER www.mtux.com and control your phone from ur PC.
When installing it from the PC, hit the left softkey to make the install go thru on the phone... then it should connect automatically.
Hi guys.
Quick question...
As per the title really.
As I was trying to get Tomtom working on my HD, I used to get the screen up that asked if I wanted to just use activesybc normally or show my SD card as a disk drive. As I was installing big map files onto it, I tapped the disk drive setting but I must also have tapped the don't show this message again box because it hasn't shown up since then
So anyone know where the setting are to change it back to normal?
And when i's connected to the PC, the backlight won't stay on for more than a second. Even though I've changed the power saving settings????
Any ideas??
Thanks in advance..
Go to Start/settings/Connection, and look for the USB to PC icon. Click on it, and check the activesync box.
Steve is right about going to Start/Settings/Connections/USB to PC
But to bring back the menu for selection you need to check the box at the bottom of the screen 'Ask me first about USB connection type when I connect the device to the PC'
Beards
Fantastic.
Thanks guys!
Any ideas about the backlight when I'm plugged in?

Window mobile has separate setting for AC and Battery when comes to the number of seconds before diming the screen. You should set them correctly. Check it again to see that you've got it right.
I recently installed advanced config on my x1 and i changed the setting for 'gprs button'. i set it to include in the bubble: disconnect button and timer
then i soft reset and tried to connect to my mobile internet. The bubble that says its connecting: it comes up twice. Once from the signal icon and once from my 3G icon. This has never happened before. Then a 3rd bubble appears telling me it can't connect (but I actually did connect ok)
EDIT: I just realised that the 2 bubbles are one for trying to connect to pay-as-you-go WAP (wrong one) and the other one for Contract WAP (the correct one). Why does it go through payasyougo first?? Error bubble still there.
Every time i connect through Comm manager, its the same scenario.
Now i've tried to go back in advanced config to revert back to the default setting of 'disabled'. But after reset, the disconnect button and timer are still there!
Additionally: I have the word 'update' on my homescreen - bottom left corner. Think its standard on SE's panel. When I press it, it tries to connect to gprs! Theres no error message if connecting this way (cos it connects straight away to Contract gprs)!! But is that what the 'update' button is there for??
Can someone Pleaseeee tell me how to get rid of the error bubble and/or tell me how to revert successfully back to the original state??
Some info on the 'update' button would also be great!
THANK YOU!!
It's called hard reset
I just updated my original message. It might give everyone a clearer idea of what's been going on.
Hard reset can't be the only option!
I think Hard Reset is the best and fastest method at the moment.
And you can just set everything to the same state before anyone come up with another solution (if there is).
Well ok then but: DOES ANYONE HAVE THIS UPDATE BUTTON???
What does it do for you??
SE Panel, Vodafone branded phone (don't think the latter matters)

The Update softkey forces the weather to update. Might do the same for RSS feeds as well.
Hi Guys, hopefully someone can help me here it is driving me crazy - well, here is my issue.
Doesnt matter what PC I plug my HD into it doesnt get picked up, i looked in device manager and still nothing. Its like its not connected, but it shows on the phone that it is charging. And does charge.
Can someone please help?
Thanks!
Settings - Connection - USB to PC - uncheck 'enable advanced network functionality'
All that was there is ' Enable faster data synchronization '
No advanced network functionality. Im on Telstra NextG Network Australia with there crappy stock rom if that helps.
I'm looking at a stock Touch HD and you're right- they changed the name of the box. So uncheck 'enable faster data synchronization'.
I did but it is still not working.
I have also done a hard reset and restore to manufacturers default and still not working.
What kind of PC are you using? Is it XP? If so you need to download ActiveSync.
Using XP.. I have downloaded and installed Activesync. It used to be picked up on every pc and suddenly now it doesnt.
Opened Activesync ports in your firewall settings?
Yeah its all fine, its as though the PC doesnt even recognise it. Doesnt show up in Disk Management.
hi lucky
you're already the 3rd one with this problem.
if you plug-in the usb connector, is there a dialog popping up on your hd which let's you choose between synch or hd mode?
if not, welcome to the group of disapointed htc owners.
there is already a thread somewhere about this problem. i have exactly the same, but no one could help me until now.
at least i found a way to flash a rom. the usb connection was working for about 20 minutes. afterwards it broke down again...
try the following:
1. shut down hd
2. remove SD and Sim Card
3. plug in the usb cable
4. do a hard reset by holding vol up and vol down while you press the power button
5. confirm the hardware reset
6. when the hd is booting up again, it will do some kind of customization process. during this process active sync should come up on your pc. cancel the device setup in acive sync and wait until your hd is completely configured.
7. afterwards reconnect the usb cable and active sync should work for a while...
let me know if it helped. i'm still searching for a permanent solution for this problem...
Nope, didnt work at all.
Not even the choice to decide what I want to do pops up on the phone.
Do you think it could be a hardware fault?
I think it is a hardware fault because i did a SPL boot and instead of 'USB' showing in the white box "Serial" did.
It just seems wierd because it was working fine for 2 weeks and then it all the sudden stopped and I did no ROM flashing or anything.
Should I try reflashing my device through the SD card and see how I go from there?
did you try a different cable???
I have about 20 different USB -> mini USB and only about 2/3 of them work with phones !!!
Yeah ive tried all different cables, ive tried ones that work with my diamond but still dosent work with my hd.

Are you getting anything popping up in device manager when you plug it in, in other words does the list refresh like it has detected a new hardware device or is it completely silent? I have seen it a couple of times where a device gets stuck as being recognized as something else. If the list does scroll (responds to the HD being plugged in) do a screen shot of everything in DM then plug the HD in and compare the lists to see if it is showing up as something else. If so, delete the device then unplug and plug in the HD again and have it reinstall the driver.
Good luck,
Gordo
I did what you said Gordo, and it doesnt show up inDevice Manager. Its as though its not even plugged in but for some reason it still recharges off the USB.
I guess about the only other thing I can think of is to plug it in on another PC and see if that computer tries to load a driver. If it does then it is something strange with your computer. If it doesn't then there is something bad with the USB port on the HD (maybe).
Gordo
Yeah I tried that but still nothing, im sending it back to Telstra, since its within 14 days of me getting it I get a whole brand new one!
thanks for your help guys
