Hi,
Is it possible to reset android in omnia2.
I have a google account that I want to change, but I can't clean the old one.
When I try to make factory reset option it only restart the phone nothing happens.
Any idea??

With all this talk about WM5 devices not really resetting everything after a hard reset, and my device being dead and not recovering after a hard reset makes me think, there must be an alternate way to really hard reset a device back to factory condition.
I tried a lot of combinations of presses to no end. The only thing I am suspicious about but did not play with is a red/white round sticker (which looks like it is hiding a button) under the battery (upper left corner).
Anyone know what that is, or is there a way to do a harder reset? Taking the battery out for a few days did not help either.
Because flash memory actually needs erasing rather than just resetting I doubt it is possible to clear it with a simple button press. It may be you can do a normal hard reset and hold down a button to bypass loading data from the flash then format it. But I've no idea really.

Re-flash the ROM?
uuummm some where in this forum i read that if you have wm2005 and go to boot loader mode you get an option over there to clear the cache or memory something like that, and that would give you a clean installation.....
haven't tried it though.....and i doubt i would get such an option in wm2003se, also i have a similar problem i did a complete flash reinstallation of rom to my device and after the installation i opened windows media player (wasnt the first thing i opened, but didnt copy any files)and guess what....i had a song available over there..... which i could actually play and it did....i checked the location of the file and it was somewhere in my device or documents dont quite remember i did a hard reset again and same issue....
after that i have'nt tried anything the rom is same i just deleted the folder manually but i would also like to know how to TOTALLLLLLY ERASE ALL DATA from the device and clean install everything
regards
on the XDA II and WM5 you hold down the buttons to resent stage then i gives you three options. One of these I am sure clears the phone
I hard reset my Universal several times (well I think I did at least)
Press the soft reset plus the two "-" buttons and you will have a white screen asking if you want to put back your HTC back factory default
Unfortunately that standard hard reset, doesn't do it. I am still stuck at reboot, and the radio rom version shows the attempted upgrade version (01) that started the problem in the first place.
i tried some of them according to herein, but some of them were not function.

there's a little icon called "clear storage" which brings your settings to the factory's default. what's wrong with it?
i'm stuck too in bootloader with my mda pro

This may be too late, but there's no way to do any sort of a reset to revert back to a previous ROM... the only thing you can do is reflash the earlier ROM.

ok ... now the final BIG request ... who can give us an update that works. the patched Maupgradeut_noid is not working with the latest upgrade.
thanks.
To revert back to clean copy of OS (i.e newly installed OS)
Hi,
Just to share with you my experience in reverting my phone to its original OS condition. Before that, just to give you guys some background.
1. Upgraded from PPC2003 to WM5
2. Tried install some patch to enable file transfer (OBEX) in BT
3. Suddenly, the phone screen gone missing. Phone shows No Signal. Cannot receive call.
3a. Did a OS reflash again, but still does not solve the problem.
4. **Panic for a moment **
5. Looked thro Program Files, and seems like some appln i installed were not erased despite doing a hard reset. So, i guess the hard reset doesnt erase some portion of the memory
6. Googled for a solution, but most said do hard reset
7. Went back xda-developers.com site to look for solution
8. Finally found a method. see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1164331 to do a format on the memory
Now, my phone is working fine. The phone screen is back and it shows my telco name, and can receive call
Hope this helps.
Rgds,

you're in the wrong forum mate

but it din't work on the jasjar.
your help is needed guru's
thank's in advance.
Hmm.. the call timer on my O2 Exec got auto reset after I performed a hard reset for some reason... Is it supposed NOT to do that?
re,
no it is not suppose to do that.
man you are lucky.
haven't tried the hard reset yet.
how do you hard reset it?
i guess the same old way power + reset.
am i right?
Hard Reset
Hit the two "-" on the keyboard and the reset at the same time
If you do a hard reset and a rom update to the radio I know it will reset the timer.

I made a ROM upgrade for the radio and a hard reset in the same time, but the timers are not reset.
Regards,
I will work on it tonight and try to build a cab if I can find all the files
Oh yeah, I DID upgrade the radio ROM at the time of hard reset, and the timer DID reset for me
I have done a ROM upgrade several times on my Jasjar. In fact once I have also chnaged it to the O2 Executive and back to the Jasjar but under no circumstances did the call timer reset itself. Personally I think it is not possible by the user.
im going to buy a mda phone, but it's passworded, is it possible that i can just boot it in 3 color mode and just flash it to wm6, then it will automatically remove the password?
a hard reset will clear off password..you can google "how to hard reset a mda".. it clears off everything just leaves the os...saved files, installed programs...etc..
Hi everybody,
on my Trinity hard reset doesn't work anymore. After for example flashing with a new rom bootloader just blinking. OS is booting normally but hard buttons doesn't work only the "joypad" in the middle. For hardreset i have to press Send button to accept hard reset when i remeber well. But nothing happend when pressing the button. In fact that the device wants a hardreset, softreset is the same problem. I have to replace battery to access OS and boot device. Has anybody a solution? Or is there a progam for WM which can make a hardresend?
€dit:
Is it possible that something is wrong with the bootloader?
thanks and best

Hello everybody,
Iam using HTC TOUCH ELFIN model, i've installed smart protect software 1.1.3 months back, unfortunately i forgot my password, could you please help me in this regard.
Try hard-resetting.
Looks like thats the only way out.
Or you can contact the developer for this software.
