hd2 has been the greatest for me so far i love it
but recently the camera has been giving me a problem
it says failed to initialize and stuff so i got rid of most of my games and unused apps to make sure its not the memory issue (including opera 10)
and tried soft reset as well but still wont work
has anyone had the same problem and treated it somehow?
cuz the last option i thought of is to hard reset, but im afraid i will lose my txt messages cuz i have lotta stuff that i occasionally look back to in there for various reasons
if i dont lose txts through hard reset or if there is anyway to back up the messages, then i dont mind hard resetting for this time
if anyone hard reseted their device before, did you lose the messages?

Yes, a hard-reset will wipe the phone completely to the state it was when you first took it out of the box. You can backup contacts and text messages via several different methods, the easiest would probably be to just use the built-in MyPhone app, it saves all your stuff to a server in the cloud, where you can view it online, and restore it to your phone after the hard-reset. And, it's free.
As for the error you're getting with the camera, I honestly don't know if there's any fixes available other than a hard-reset, but other members may know of one.

whenever i reset the device, the text message inbox, sent folder everything in it gets deleted....
i dont knw whats wrong..is it because it has not transferred it to the rom and is still in the ram when i reset? This is very worrying if i lose all my messages every time i soft reset
Normally it doesnt happen... but some time when there is any new messages comes or if you have any messages in your outbox while you reset they are getting deleted... but old messages stays...
Even though its not perfectly working well with messaging still thing happening with you is completely wrong... try Hard Reset once, do we have any other solutions?... I dont think so.
sorry for making this same old thread again but i never had a issue with my missed calls until i hard reset my phone and took off all the tmobile add-ons. I read about deleting the list registry tweak but people said the list recreates itself when you restart your phone. I would like to how do you delete the whole program off of my wing. I know i can change the people in my favs by going to the t-mobile website but i just want the whole program gone since it was annoying whenever i tried to use it. Thanks for any help
I'm one of the people who had this problem before. Unforunately, I can't tell you how to fix it. It just worked one time after I did a hard reset, and now after hard resetting more (because of other issues), it's actually working 100% pefectly. Prior to this, I had it kinda working, but sometimes it still wouldn't log calls. I'm flashing to touch-it 2.3 again and I'll see if it still works.
Sorry I can't help, but if you can afford to hard reset, it might be worth a shot.
it takes like a year to get to clock settings to set an alarm. text messages i can only see one line but if i slide the keyboard shut the line will be visible and i can reopen it and write another line. what is going on? i've had the phone since late september, is it just time for a hard reset or what?
I would try a hard reset with those problems.
okay. can anyone tell me what precautions i need to take before a hard reset? will i need to write all my numbers down or will i just be able to sync them back on? will my myfavs stay? will the phone work and everything or will i need to take it to tmobile?
if your numbers are stored on the sim card, then you won't lose them.
if they are stored to main memory, you should connect your phone to a PC via activesync and back them up into outlook.
Alternatively, you can use a program called PIMBackup to save them. Run a search for it on this site.
Assuming your running the stock tmobile rom, you won't lose your myfaves.
Everything should work fine, and even better than it does now after you hard reset.
how long does a hard reset take?

1/3 of a second.
hard reset is pretty much like soft resetting your phone, except for when it comes up, you have to do the initial setup you did when you turned on your phone for the first time. Takes a few minutes.
thanks, works like a charm now! do we know when wm 6.1 will be released and how to obtain it and if it will be free? i know we can get hacked versions or whatever now, but i mean fully legit ways. i really want threaded sms.
Well... yea, the process of setting up the phone after you hard reset might take a few minutes. lol
EDIT: The chances of us getting an official WM6.1 are zero to none.
So ive had this bad boy for about, a month, not the original its actually the second refurbushed ive gotten because my original phone no longer had vib function scroll wheel no longer worked
first replacement:
USB port broke
second replacement:
keeps freezing out, by that i mean ill be typing a txt, half way itll stop typing and just not work...
ill be running 1 app wether it be internet or sms , and itll freeze.
at first i figured hmm might be the 3rd party app i used to restore contacts (bitpim) the refurbished phone has 6.1 WM, my original phone was pre 6.1 so i figured f it ill just hard reset the phone once more and manual re input numbers as people call
nope, even without activating the bitpim my phone still keeps freezin. and its gotten worst
if the phone freezes and i soft reset itll do either of the following
freeze on the first image
freeze during the Verizon intro
freeve during the WM 6.1 page
Freeze right after it finishes loading
not even turn on at all
i just dont know what to do
so far ive done the following
hard reset 2 within a week - seoncd time without 3rd party app and still it does it
soft reset hundreds of times now...
any help would be appreciated, please
ask verizon for a new phone that one has problems if a hard reset doesnt fix them.
also,
i decided to try again and get one more replacement...
if i have an old version of Pim back up and i wanna updated it, will the old files transfer over to the new software and restore once i do a hard reset...
i wish i had outlook on my laptop and this would make it so much easier with active sync
ok so i finally have a juststable i like and my software and settings are optimum for my needs, every so often i get what seems to me a os crash, it starts with my text tab freezing completely so i soft reset several times to get anything working at all, my htc weather doesnt update and my contacts disappear,my phone doesnt make or receive calls but rings, i cant even connect to activesync.
Eventually after a couple hours of soft resets it finally works i have to then sync my phone in order to get my contacts back now if im away from home when this happens its a nightmare i dont know why it happens or how to prevent it, im pretty sure i have plenty of memory storage is 2.30 MB and program is 19.50 free.
if nothing else is there a way to save my contacts in a folder on my storage card and then move the folder to where it needs to be on the actual phone if this occurs when im away from home?
ok any help would be much appreciated thanks
