Hi my tmobile wing that i bought off the craigslist is stuck on the main screen with tmobile and is not going beyond it
can some one please help me how can i make this phone work again
Try a hard reset
(hold down both soft keys and poke the stylus through the hole on the side of the phone under the volume slider)
If that doesn't work, you need to install this :
T-MOBILE STOCK RUU
In order to run this, you'll need to plug your phone to your PC via USB, then go into bootloader mode ... which means you need to hold down the camera button (and keep it down) while you soft reset (poke stylus through hole under volume slider)
When your phone is in bootloader mode, and plugged into USB, it should show "USB" in the corner... once that happens, run that file which will take the phone back to factory settings.

Wont Run Bootloader
I have tried holding the camera button and soft resetting multiple times, but it keeps getting stuck on the tmobile screen? What do i do??
After I flashed a ROM for the just clean oven, I had this same problem.
I fixed it (after many hours) by downloading this ROM:
http://www.mediafire.com/?clvw3cvyclo
Entering bootloader (hold in camera button and soft-reset.)
Running the tmobile rom.
It was very strange, it took 3 or 4 tries, but it eventually worked.
I don't understand why, since I did nothing differently, but try it afew times.
Hope you get it up and running soon!
BTW, what are your SLP numbers shown on the bootloader screen?
thx really worked
tryed like 4 times then it worked

Hi everyone,
Before opening this thread i have done a lot of search about my problem but i could not find any solution. My pocket pc is HTC Touch 3450, it works fine but i want to unlock its CID. I tried every combination to enter bootloader mode (CAMERA + SOFT RESET, or CAMERA+POWER+SOFTRESET etc.) but when i try, it boots normally. Also there is no SD card in it. As i said everything works fine. I tried to upgrade its ROM but i got CONNECTION error in %0 of progress. I know to upgrade ROM i must enter bootloader but as i said i cannot. Also i can try to upgrade ROM via SD card but again i have to enter bootloader mode, but as i said i cannot.
When i try to enter bootloader mode it boots normally and begins the system and works everything fine. I dont know its history, i mean its my new second hand phone.
Anyone, any idea? Please help me!!!!.
Same problem here - 155 views and no answers
Phone turned off. Hold down camera button, press power button to boot, while still holding camera button until the bootloader appears...
If you can't get your device into bootloader and you have tried all options, which it seems like you did. Consider the fact that you may have a clone, where did you purchase the phone from? This issue has been mentioned before, and that was the answer to why the bootloader wouldn't load.
Easy way to tell is check the battery, it'll say HTG instead of HTC.
Tried that matey - no good.
You see I thought that mine was a clone due to the trouble getting into bootloader, but I can see no other reason to believe its a clone, Battery says HTC as well.
I have had plenty of experience updating roms on htc devices but this has me stumped.
unfortunately it is a HTG battery, then it is a clone When i try the combinations, (power off then push power buton+camera button) it doesn't enter bootloader mode.Now i knoe that the problem is being a clone.
My next question is, what is the way to enter bootloader in clone HTC (HTC with a HTG battery)?????
Thanks
same problem. please help
crypto 2008 , same problem here.nobody knows how to do this. please help
It's the same problem for all clones.
Seems there is no way to enter the bootloader mode
Clones enter bootloader by holding the volume slider UP and pressing reset. If you hold the volume slider up and hold the camera button and hit reset you can hard reset it.
Hello
I took my friends xperia to install some applications when it happens this:
After i installed AEK software Keyboard Mapper the system asked me to soft reset the device to apply some settings.(The device during this procedure was connected via usb with the pc)
I press "yes" and as usual at the start up appears the sony ericsson logo then the experia logo and finally the device is active.But in my case the phone when it comes to the experia logo freezes..The screen remains illuminated but blank and when iam touching the screen(which is blank) i can hear the sounds of clicking.In this state if i want to shut down the device the only method is to take off the battery.I tried to hard reset the device(when its closed) but unfortunately it wont allow me to do so(i tried with all the possible ways to hard reset the device).At first i thought that the device had hasnt too much battery.I fully charged it and i tried again getting the same results.Please, can anyone tell me what to do?
Edit: After several tries it came up this message "The device is unable to boot because either you have turned off the device incorrectly or tries to install an application from untrusted source.Press volume up to reset or press any other button to cancel etc" Iam pressing the volume up button but nothing happens.Please can you tell me how to hard reset the device?
Here is a link to soft/hard reset tutorial
Hi
I assume you have removed and reinserted the battery?, try this first, if that doesn't work go here.

P.S This took me 10 seconds to find on google

Might have to hard reset, if you didn't install a safe mode boot program.

Thanks Ian but apparently you didnt read all the lines i wrote.I said "i tried to hard reset the device with all the possible ways but didnt work" including this way you send me.Thanks anyway
Problem solved
Doing this:
without using the stylus is to switch off the phone,
hold down right and left button (under the screen)
while holding down switch on the phone
release the switch button while holding the two others
then a grey screen must appear saying to push "r" to hard reset or "x" to cancel
push "r" on the keyboard and you're done
I bought the HD2 few days ago, I dont know what the last owner did but HD2 doesn’t wanna start, just stuck on O2 logo and that’s it.
I’ve tried to do hard reset or bootload but ineffective. Can you maybe help me? Thanks in advance.

So you can't get to the bootloader? (holding down vol down from a cold boot)?
Does it show the version information down in the bottom corner when starting?
I've tried many times but nothing happen.
No there is no info about rom/radio etc.
Have you got any ideas how can I get to bootloader?
Remove the SD Card and boot the phone.
Just to confirm you can't get into BootLoader mode - Press and hold the Volume Down button then tap the Power button. Don't let go of the Volume Down button until the Bootloader screen apears.
Thanks, I know how I can get into BootLoader mode but that doesn't work.
Any other ideas?
There is no other way to get into BootLoader mode.
Have you tried booting without the SD Card and checked that there is no bent battery pins?
It may be a faulty volume button or other hardware issue.
If it was a faulty ROM or RADIO then you would still be able to get into BootLoader.
Phone was dropped, black screen nothing to see. The phone however works. I can boot into recovery and even start adb sideload. When doing so, it shows up on my PC with adb devices. However, that is as far as I can go.
The device has a sim and pin lock, obviously I know both code. Is there any chance to recover data (contacts and images) from the phone. Grateful for any hint or a solid idea. There are plenty of posts on the web telling I should connect via adb and unlock the phone but when connecting in recovery mode it does not show up on adb devices or fastboot as the developer-mode was never enabled.
I did also try commercial software (i.e. dr.phone) but the phone doesn't show up their either.
I've the same problem. Did you were able to recover the data?
No, I ended up having the phone repaired in one of the repair shops. I was able to recover all data. Now I use the phone as a backup and for programming and experiments....
How to use your broken smartphone from a PC | nextpit
Has your phone screen cracked, leaving you unable to access your data? All is not lost! We'll show you various solutions on how to recover your data!
www.nextpit.com
This site shows the option to connect A40, if still Android 9.0, via usb hub to external screen and mouse and unlock. For Android >10 this doesn't work anymore
I have the same issue and neither usb-debugging on nor fastboot enabled. A40 doesn't show up in adb. So I also read when putting A40 via Power and Volume up into download/recovery mode, at least a backup of data should work.
My current idea is I have to replace display in repair shop or unlock via usb-hub + mouse.
Something I don't get right. How do you power off the A40 without screen to get safely the SIM card out? Power and volume down 7 sec, then release power off, then volume down? When I do this the A40 reboots with vibration. Power and volume up apparently reboots to recovery mode. Long pressing Power also doesn't turn off A40. Also in the A40 manual nothing is written on this
