hello friends.
my Yota phone was put to charge at night and in the morning i saw that the back screen (e-ink) has frozen. it shows the wallpaper and the clock just wont change. i did a soft reset then a hard reset. the phone works fine but the back screen is just the same.
anyways i can get it back to work? any tips?
have you tried restarting the phone? taking out the battery for 30 secs? resetting to factory defaults?

whats a soft or hard reset, there is a hole at the button of my xda ii that resets it but keeps all my programs, i assume thats basically a restart button, so thats a soft restart? a hard restart is when u take out ur battery for like 10 mins and lose everything right?
That's a soft reset. To hard reset , press the on/off button while pushing ths stylus in the hole at at the bottom on the XDA. It clears everything from RAM, and it reloads the operating system from flash memory. Just like when you first bought it and turned it on.
Removing the battery will do it eventually, once the backup battery runs down.

why does my xda when i remove my batt even for a minute, it always performs hard resets? any suggestions to avoid hard resetting when i change sim cards?
thanks.
I tried installing spb pocket plus and, just after it installed, my Wizard didn't seem to be responding so I tried soft resetting it. On booting up it showed the O2 splash screen and then the Windows Mobile screen but nothing else. The screen goes dark as the backlight is turned off but you can still see the Windows Mobile screen showing. Each time I soft reset the same thing happens.
I've tried soft resetting about 4-5 times now and the same thing happens again. I've even taken the battery out and put it back in and the same thing happens. I was going to try reinstalling the O2 XDA firmware but as I can't get the Wizard to connect to ActiveSync I can't do that.
Has anyone got any ideas? At the moment I'm without my phone & all the PDA functions on the phone and I really want it back.
Thanks for any advice.

Think you may need to do a hard reset to put it back to it's factory state. Should work then.
Thanks, I'd been trying to do a hard reset but it didn't seem to work - then it occurred to me that I was actually pressing the wrong button to confirm the reset!
Hard reset works and gets it up and running again although, from checking, it seems that there's some problem between sdp pocket plus (3.0.0.3888) as I've now installed that about 3-4 times and each time, after doing a soft reset, the Wizard crashes and won't respond.
I just installed the BatteryStatus today plug in and it was working fine until i turned on the option to show the CPU speed. Then it just hung up. Now when I soft-reset it hangs when loading the today screen. Some of the plugins load but it hangs before BatteryStatus loads, probably while loading it. Any way I can get to my system to change that setting? I would prefer to not do a hard reset. But if I do, how do I do a hard reset?
Sounds like a hard reset to me....Hold down the two keys with the dot's on them next to your phone buttons and hit the reset button while pressing the reset switch and hold them down for a second or two longer. If you have a Memory card in on the 6800 I hear you may want to take it out if you don't want it cleared as well...good luck.
hmmm I went to do a hard reset... saw on another site that you press all the buttons and press reset. I pressed all the side buttons OK, Voice, On, Comm, Camera and hit the reset.
It went to a screen with red, green and blue (i think) bars and said USB at the bottom. Then I unplugged it from the USB and it switched to say serial. And it just stayed there. I didn't know what to do so I just soft reset it at that point. It then booted up and was working fine. Looks like the changes I made since the last soft reset had been cleared (I think) and it was now working fine and all my stuff was still on my phone (it doesnt look like it did a hard reset).
Was that not a hard reset that I did? or was it something else?
Sounds like you entered bootloader mode. I'm surrprised that a SOFT RESET took you back.......
You just did a Soft Reset from Bootloader mode, which to my knowledge is exactly the same as a regular Soft Reset.
A Hard Reset wil completely reset your device to original ROM status and wipe out all of your info/contacts/mail... ect.
If the Soft Reset fixed the problem then good deal.
I installed same app, had same problem and did hard reset. My problem was getting phone service working again. About 15 min. with VZW connection tech, entered a 26 digit number authentication key through EPST.exe system program to get my phone service back.
I also had the same problem as well. With a battery status deal like what your describing. All i did was soft reset a **** load of times and plug in my pw real fast and it came back. I have a scrolling task now that display all of it with 0 problems. I have it if you want it. Pm me your email.
Weird, I had tried a soft reset a few times and it kept coming back with the same thing, hanging halfway through loading the today screen. Maybe I just got lucky that time.
try this, i like alot with 0 problems

Did u try manual hard reset?
All of sudden, my HD2 died on me when I was using it with CoPilot during my driving. I stopped my car, took out the battery & back on and powered it on. Then loaded up some apps before it started to reboot again. And again. Until it reached the point where it just shows the "HTC" logo and freezes there. I left it switched off for a few days.
Now, today, I powered it on, it showed the HTC logo and then shut down. No reboot.
I have not done a reset yet as I need some data off from it first.
Standard Windows Mobile v6.5. That's it. I can't even get the red text at the HTC logo to come up with the radio number & other details.
Does anyone know what the issue is? Is there a way to get it bacjk up & running without losing my data?
Thanks all
First try a factory reset, press both volume up and down hold in then press the power button wait until you get the banded screen then the white screen - read the instructions.
If its booting its not bricked
Remove your sd card recover what you need then reformat it useing the pc, try EASEUS free edition remove all pertitions before formating
When its booted back correctly, I would consider a task 29 then reinstall the rom of your choice (the search option works well) Good luck
OK, after trying a few battery unplug/plug, I finally got the red text to come up...
R - 2.07.51.22.2
G - 15.32.50.07U
D - 1.66.76641
But it's still stuck at the HTC logo.

Thanks, I assume doing the factory reset will wipe off whatever I have on the phone memory?

Yes a hard reset will remove all of your personal data and settings. Before you Hard Reset if you have not already done so. Check your battery pons to make sure you do not have a pin that is slightly bent. I say do thiscause you said it started bootlooping when hou took the battery out, I recommend using the reset button to soft rese.
Also try placing your HD2 in the freezer for like 10 minutes in a plasgic bag to protect it againsg moister and then see if it will boot.Also remove your SD card and see if that helps.
Has given up, did a factory reset and all is good. But sad about the data loss.
Nevermind, moving onward!
Thanks for the helps, all.
