s200 touchscreen problem. rom issue?

Hi, I've received a damaged qtek s200, which has non-working touchscreen. I can only use the buttons on the bottom of the front side, which is not enough to even unlock it. From the facts I've gathered someone tried to change rom in it and damaged it. On boot it says:
IPL:2.09
SPL:2.09.0000
GSM:02.07.20
OS: 2.9.7.24
I have no experience with pdas. Please help.

first try hard reset by pressing camera button+comm manager button and reset the device keep holding the buttons down until you get the following message on the screen: "Press Send to restore factory default." At this point press Send (Green Phone). Warning this will erase all information, contacts etc. However data on the SD card will not be erased.
if the touchscreen is still not working, try to stick a softcard (business card) between the screen and the front panel because sometimes somthing like dust or dirt is puting pressure on the screen, or maybe you droped the phone and the front panel been twisted (even a little bit) and now it is pressing the screen.
if the touchscreen is still not working, try to flash a new rom to the phone by downloading it from here: ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Prophet/Shipped_Complete_Updates/
if all the above is not making the touchscreen to work, so probably it is a hardware problem, and you need to send it to repair.

Remember, you'll erase all your data. Remove the SD card and Press and hold the camara and common manager buttons at the same time, then put the stylus into the hold close to the USB connection. Still hold the mentioned button, when a dark screen become, it going to said to restore, push the green button you used to answer a call.

Tilt not working...sitting at Windows Mobile Screen

I did the Hard-SPL and followed the instructions to a T. The phone rebooted after the hards-spl and everything worked fine. I installed BlackBerry Connect to my device and it rebooted. Now it just sits at the windows mobile screen and won't proceed any farther. Anybody have an idea why? Or what I can do to get it working again? I did the HardSPL using windows XP and not vista.
When I enter the bootload this is what I get.
KAIS*0 MFG
SPL-1.0.OliPof
CPLD-8
Serial
Please help.
Anybody have any ideas?
Go to the wiki and look up how to flash from a microSD card, then flash a clean copy of whatever rom you had put on there so you can get a fresh start. Unless something is physically broken with the phone, that will save it. Saved me plenty of times.
Just had to do a hard reset. Fixed the problem. Loaded new HTC ROM everything is up and running.
How did you do the hard reset? I can't even get it to work. (hold right & left soft keys and press/release reset until some screen I never get)

continue holding the left/right soft key after you put the stylus to reset, and the extra screen will show up.

i held the cam.+ power button and held the reset button and its doin the same thing it does when i soft reset it
all 3 actions must be at the same time and hold for 5 secs. if you get the short vibrate, just keep trying over and over. it wont hurt anything. at least it never did to mine.
Yep, you cannot install the BB connect software to the SD card & then reset. Your device will be looking for the BB connect software before the device SD card has booted & come online.
HOWEVER,
with SK Tools you can go into the startup folder & reorder the start up files. If you move BB Connect down to the end of the start up sequence it might work. Well, it did for me. Ylu have to go in after installing though, & before the reset & change the start up sequence down so that it's the last item to auto start.
You will have this type of problem with any program you install to the SD card where the program has a higher priority auto start because as I said before, you have an item trying to boot before it's operating files are available. Therefore, you stop the whole boot sequence because it can't move on to the next start up item without finding the start item it's looking for.
AS for the Hard reset. I find the easiest way to do this is:
1. Soft Reset.
2. while the device is soft resetting depress both soft keys.
3. When you get to the first boot screen depress the soft reset key & hold while simultaneously holding the soft keys.
4. follow the instructions on the screen, i.e. push send (green phone button) to restore, etc...
Works every time for me.

This is not random!
When I press:
RightSoft + LeftSoft it always works.
LeftSoft + RightSoft it never works.
Sequence is important. Not sure if it is left or right first though.
If other can confirm, could someone put it in the wiki, please. I've pulled a lot of hair over this topic.

that is to enter BootLoader NOT to start a Hard reset. when holding the power AND the camera button then resetting using the stlyus you should see the tri-color screen listing your SPL, Kaiser model, and one more thing i forget right now
EDIT - Make sure you are not pressing the ok button while going into BootLoader as the way the buttons are laied out its easy to press the ok by mistake.

hard reset

does any one know how i could hard reset my x7510 via pc.because i cant access the phone
You can't do a hard reset via the PC- it has to come from the device itself. As long as the battery has some charge it ought to be OK.
Look for the volume control on the Left side, and hold this DOWNWARDS then at the same time, press the stylus into the Reset hole.
This will start the Hard Reset process.
Hi there,
I've the same problem on my Advantage.
I made it to the 'hard-reset-screen', but in here it tells me: 'Press ACTION to restore factory default'.
Now, I assume that 'ACTION' means, press down joystick.
However, my device doesn't have an joystick.
I'm not even sure, that it's really an advantage, as I got it handed over as an Athena anyways.
I'd highly appreciate it, if somebody could tell me, which device this is from the photo I attached and maybe also give me 'hard-reset-instructions' for whichever device this is.
Kind Regards
Andreas
If you press the power button on the side it wil start the proces to put it back to factory settings.
look in your booklet chapter 13

I think you have a problem
Your keyboard is from an Advantage1 (X7500) but the main device is an X7510 though I don't recognise the small feature above the Home button. The 2 keyboards are not fully compatible with each other as the genuine X7510 keyboard has an extra row of characters and haptic feedback.
The instruction you are getting for the hard reset is for the older model, so it is possible that someone has installed a modified X7500 ROM?
Anyway, as the previous poster said, follow the Voliume Down/Reset process then when the instruction comes up, press Power to reset or Camera to abort.
Once it resets,I'd try looking at which ROM versions you have.

After changing registry key it is not possible to start the device.

Hi,
I have changed the registry key to change the default keyboard input.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip
After changing the registry key, I have restarted my mobile but it does not get start properly. It just shows the starting screen (only shows "Windows mobile" on screen). Please help me to solve the problem.
Mobile details :- HTC P3450
OS :- Windows moble 6.1
Thanks in advance,
Milind
looks like you need to hard-reset your device.
Please let me know how to hard reset the device.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_Resets
That's guessing you have an Elf HTC P3450 if not the WIKI will hold the info
Not Working.
Even after resetting it just shows the "Windows Mobile" on screen.
Is there any other way to edit the registry entry.
No way to change registry without being in operating system, my next advise is to go to the WIKI i linked and find your stock ROM and flash.
After a hard reset (soft reset won't solve your issue) it will sit at the Windows Mobile screen for a while as it initializes the system for the first time, so wait 15 or so minutes, and it should get around to setting up your stylus and such.
Hi, this happend to me once screwing around with sip, to get block recognizer back in wm6.5, and the all thing freezed just like you. So do operate hard reset and be patient it will end up telling you you really messed up but will start from scratch after a while.
hcall,trowakage
After hard reset I have Kept the device on for whole night but still it shows the "Windows mobile" on screen.
stylez,
It is not possible to connect the phone to PC through active sync, so it is not possible to flush the ROM.
-Milind.
weird, I suppose you tried pulling out the battery and putting it back on? what keys do you press to hard reset? do you get a message saying you will loose all your data press action to continue?
Can you enter hardspl at all? if so you can flash your rom
To perform a hard reset
1.Press and hold the TALK and END buttons, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the bottom of your device.2.Release the stylus, but continue pressing the TALK and END buttons until you see the following message on the screen:This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. Press Action to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel.
3.Release the TALK and END buttons, and then press ENTER on your device.
good luck
hcall,
I have tried it in the same way which you have mentioned.
In the same way shown in video
But unfortunately it doesn't show any message (hard reset might work after booting OS completely & in my case it is not possible, it just shows "Windows Mobile").
can you boot on hard spl at all?
hcall,
no.
power off...
press power button while the volume key is pressed down... that way you'll enter the tri-color boot screen... connect it to your computer and flash a good rom.
TheRem,
Not working.
Is there another way to reinstall OS.
-Milind
It seems there is no solution for this problem.
-Milind
bring it to the nearest HTC service center in your country.
Fiquei com a mesma dúvida.
