Hi I just got my xda 2 and was wondering how to do a hard reset ? Can anyone advise me? Thank you
It's in the instruction book. Have you read it?
Hold down the on/off switch and press the stylus into the small hole at the bottom.
If you've only just got it, there shouldn't be any need for a hard reset.

My himalaya does nothing when I try and turn it on, when I put it in the cradle to charge I only get a red Lamp. I have tried a soft and hard reset to no avail.
Anybody have any ideas.
are you able to get into bootloader?

Hmmm ; not tried that, how do i do it??
I encountered the same problem on my XDA. Whatever soft reset and hard reset I tried, nothing was shown on the screen. It could be charged, but could not be turned on. Even try to press the three buttons to enter the Bootloader, didn't make it.
What can I do? Help me, please.

Press Power+Joypad+Reset at the same time.

Not a sausage :-((
looks like it is going back to meet it's maker. God know hos long that will take.
...even, if you don't see a pixel on the screen, try to speak to it with mtty.exe
Don't forget to terminate "wcescomm.exe" process before you do...
If you don't get the terminal prompt, you'd better send it to repair.
Actually, what happened to it?
buzz
No pixels, and no prompt.... I am taking it in for repair at lunch time, they say it could take up to 2 weeks, don't know how I'm gonna survive :?
The belt clip it came with detached itself and it landed on the concrete floor with a thud... they will probably make me pay for it as well...
hmm... sorry to hear that man, that's completely different story...

it scares me that tmob still dont know how to hard reset the kit they are supplying
to hard reset, push and hold in both the camera and record buttons, while doing that, press reset and release BUT continue to hold the two buttons for a further 5 seconds and the screen will pop up a message saying "to format press send, to cancel press any other button"
obviously press send and itll start the format (reset) process
it goes without saying, but back up all your conatcts and data first as it will wipe it completely

I have this problem (speaker fault) too. . Tell me please about your experiment with hard reset. It's realy help to solve this problem?
Thanks for that, a great help.
I spoke to T-Mobile and collected a Brand New handset Free of Charge!
So i am back up and running now
I performed Hard Reset my T-Mobile MDA Compact II, but problem with speaker still exist . Please HELP!
viw9419, where you collected you Brand New handset?
From the store I purchased the phone from 3 days before
I have recently purchased a HTC Touch / ELF (So i thought) from eBay.
Turns out it was a CLONE.
To make matters worse it is hanging on the Windows Mobile screen.
Also, a hard reset is not working. Im not even sure it can do a hard reset.
There are also no Red numbers when the phone starts.. does this phone not have a boot loader?
Can i fix this phone at all? I really would love too do so..
I will pay £5 maybe more, to anyone who can get my phone working!
Payment will be made through PAYPAL.
Thanks people!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379318 there.
Can you take any pictures of it?
Just curious, have you tried manually entering bootloader?
Sorry guys just got a reply from another seller of the same phone on ebay.
Turns out the phone does have a bootloader..kind of.. you can hard reset but flashing is not possible.
To enter boot loader you have to hold volume up, camera, and soft reset, then middle button i belive.. i presssed it anyway..
Thanks anyway guys.

Yep. Take a look at the link in the first post. There are tiny differences. Weight, screw placements, serial's, performance etc..
Hi
I have a question on the phone (touch screen). Few weeks ago I installed a cooked rom, than after two weeks, the touch screen just die on me. I have no idea what happen, I never drop the phone on the ground or in the water.
Than I send it back to HTC, ask for repair. You know how much HTC ask for the fix the phone? $425.00. WTF!!!!!!!!
Now I ask for help here, will the cooked rom damaged the phone? Any way I can fix the touch screen?
Please help.
Thanks
PS. If this time No one can help me fix it, will anyone here buy the phone from me?
First...what ROM? Did you Mess with any registry settins regarding the touch screen? When you say "died", are you talking about it not turning on, or turning on and not responding? Hard reset?
I do not want to post what rom i use before.
I did not mess with the registry. Touch screen (hold screen) is no response. I try soft reset and hard reset. I also try to install some new rom. on the OS setup screen, i cannot do anything since the touch screen did not response any more.
Any idea????
why don't you want to say what rom you use ?
energyrom...
But anyone can help me out here?? Any idea???
Guys, anyone can help ?
