White Screen only

I just installed this program, used default settings, apllied, My 8125 soft reset.
Now I cannot see anthing past the initial screen that lists IPL and SPL version.
Just a plain white screen, Active sync wont work, no buttons work. Please help !!!!!!!!!!

If you're stuck I think the only next step would be a hard reset which is going to drop it back to the base factory build so you'll lose anything you've installed etc.

How do I hard reset 8125, with buttons only (key / button combination) OS does not boot or visible.

press the "connetions" button (on the left hand side of the unit next to volume up/down) with the "voice" button (right hand side of the unit opposite the connections button) and then use the stylus to do the normal soft reset and it should hard reset back to factory settings - it's described in the manual

Tried hard reset several times, no luck.
All I did was installed registry wizard from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=39725&highlight=registrywizard
and now I can't get it to do anything, anymore suggestions ?, your help is really appriciated, I have only had the phone to 2 days and its dead already

try holding the same two buttons and then hitting the power button instead of the reset thingy... this method was easier for me... If this dosen't work you will have to enter bootloader mode and reflash the rom.
For the detailed reset procedures try here
By the way, did you use that program to change the default input method?? I use it all the time and the only time it gave me the whitescreen is when I tried to change the default input...Oops. I believe that you should be able to use that program safely, just leave the default input alone... Hope this helps.

Thanks for info, I did manage to reload the ROM. and Yes I did change the default input method, that might have done it. Thanks all, for your Help.

raheelb did you have the warning that the proggie cannot recognize the AKU version?
I had had such a warning, unfortunately bypassed it and had the same issue (white screen) - any one knows why the RegistryWizard cannot recognize AKU version? I have the original Qtek 2.17 ROM installed... :?

my k-jam hangs

Hi,
Recently my pda(k-jam) fell from my pocket and it hanged. I did a soft reset but I get this error message "Press Send to restore factory defaults, Other keys to quit"
I tried all keys but in vain. I then did a hard reset by pressing the comm and the voice dial. (did a reset with my stylus). I still get the above error message.
Does anyone have any suggestion or idea how to reset my pda?
Thanks alot.....

Y dnt u flash it with a new Rom look around the forum for the new MOSKI ROM.

Thanks
Thank you for your suggestion, I will think of upgrading to molski.
But will it upgrade ? As a hard reset also doesnt seem to work and how do I get to reach the ROM if I am not able to see the other things?
Thanks

Please help...
Hi ,
I am a newbie and so would seek alot of help. Thanks in advance...
Couple of days back my pda fell and now after soft or hard reset the screen still shows this "press send to restore to factory defaults, other keys to quit"
I would like to upgrade to molski but they say I might have to downgrade my rom but I must first unlock the device. There are g3 or g4 device..how do I know what device my k-jam is...g3 or g4? How do I follow up or know?
Could anybody give me the link or solve my problem? As my k-jam just wont pass that screen..I tried looking into various topics but couldnt go about the first step I should be taking...
Please help!
Thanks

Hi,
Please help..after hard reset, it still does not happen to load into the factory defaults... I cant flash my ROM or anything ...as it wont progress further than that screen ... "Press Send to load factory defaults, or quit"
Anyone have any suggestion?

Hold down the camera button while resetting it. If you can get it to the bootloader (three color screen), you might be able to flash it with something and possibly rescue it. It does, however, sound like you might be screwed. Things break when you drop them, including plastic phones.

hi
Thanks but if I have to do a hard reset, I would already be holding the comm manager and the voice dial with the stylus to reset. Do I hold all the 3 buttons together while hard resetting ?
I have tried all the buttons after doing the hard reset but just doesnt get to the other screen.
Thanks for your help.

Hold down the camera button, Power Button and Pin in the hole. First relese the hole, then release the power button and keep holding the Camera button dis will bring the Tri-colour screen. There'll be some info. like IPL n SPL der
If IPL n SPL are like:
IPL 2.xx.xxxx or 1.xx.xxxx
SPL 2.xx.xxx or 1.xx.xxxx then ur device is G4.
if its like:
IPL 2.xx or 1.xx
SPL 2.xx or 1.xx then ur device is G3
if its G4 you need to CID Unlock that before upgrading it.
All the LUCK. Go Ahead.

Hi
Thanks,
I tried your steps but it still wouldnt work. But somehow I did the switch below the comm button and it showed me the screen to the somethign HTC innovation or like that.
I think I had to tinker with the switch below the button to get the screen working.Thanks for your help.

Xphone Froze on O2 Screen After Hard Reset

Hi,
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this but i could not find an answer for this in this section or general section -- The problem is this i upgraded to wm6 from wm2003 and everything was fine then it started it freeze ocationally so i thought i'd give it a hard reset as ther was no where in the tutorial that said that after flashing you could not hard reset now the phone is stuck on the O2 screen where the IPL & SPL are displayed
IPL=1.00 &
SPL=1.01.0109 &
GSM=0.3.28.60
I know the IPL/SPL were at 2.61 before that
Can anyone tell me how to get out of this or is the phone now bricked?

Yes, you cant hard reset because the htccoldboot.dll is not there, its not brick, you got the right SPL, just reflash again, refer to my guide on my siggy

Thanks
great that worked out fine gave me a scare - now it's all back up and runnung apart from the camera

For those stuck with this same problem, please re-flash starting from step 7 of karhoe's instructions to upgrade to WM6.
After installing a few applications and having to reboot, my SMT5600 would not connect via ActiveSync, nor show any network carrier and none of the menu keys worked (Start & Contacts). While troubleshooting I browsed to a forum suggesting I try a hard reset.
Never got a proper hard reset and ended up stuck at the initial screen showing the IPL / SPL / HIVE and Partition info.
Followed karhoe's step 7, with phone turned off, held camera button down and plugged in USB cable. Followed remaining instructions.
Note: the "type 'l c:/os.bin' " step is done in the mtty.exe screen that pops up (and not on your PC's command prompt ).
Thanks karhoe,
Good luck to everyone,
Jawad

Dropped 8525. Need Help Restarting

My son dropped his 8525. It is now stuck on a display of red, green, blue, and white bars. A reset and a battery removal do nothing to get it to boot. Is it toast or is there something I can do to get it to boot?

considering this is your 1st post I'm assuming that you didnt have olipro 2.10 as your SPL.....What is your IPL and SPL as this may get you the help you are looking for... And if you do get it going again PLEASE install Hard SPL, Here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Good luck.
P.S. try reading through this, it may help... : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369434

The IPL:
IPL-1.04
The SPL:
SPL-2.03
I hope this helps someone.

Someone said they had success with this problem in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355884
Read a bit and see if it works but please understand that this really just trying out everything in a last ditch effort to get it working. There may be no hope, so no promises...
If you do manage to get it going again I'd suggest Hard SPLing your phone so it is easier to fix. Hard SPL isn't a guarantee, mind, but it does provide a safety net for when things like this happen...
All the best...

hermes 100 8525 flash problem
hi, i was trying to upgrade a cingular 8525 in the process of unlock,
and it stopped at 1%, and did nothing,
now the phone just go to the 3 color screen,
and says
herm100
ipl-1.00
hem100
spl-1.40.olipro,
what can i do to restore it to normal please,

lacasapc, try to Hard Reset, hold down both soft keys and reset with stylus. If that doesn't work then try this : Flash it to you device while it in tricolour screen. Make sure that your activesync disable & use the latest RUUwrapper.
Open Activesync, select connection settings and untick "Allow USB Connections".
Run the RUUwrapper.exe file for the os you want after connecting the hermes via usb. Chose SPL 1.40 then HARD SPL and then flash the new OS. This should work.
Cheers...

Flashing ROM with Android....

So, I've been using an Android ROM I found on the net on my vogue for some time now, but now I want to try out some other ROMs. However, the RUU requires a connection to ActiveSync, which isn't posible from Android. Anybody know how to do this?

All you have to do is hold the power button and take the pen and soft reset at the same time the phone should go into the hard SPL mode.. From there start up the romupdate you should be good to go

I tried that already, all it does is reboot my phone. No hard SPL mode

Hold the power and the camera buttons and reset to put it in bootloader mode

Ah yes that worked, thanks a lot .
