I flashed to NBD 8.0 about a week ago and have been loving it's sweetness. Today though, I turn on my wizard and it won't get past the NBD startup screen. I have reset and taken out the batter a few times now to no avail. Can anyone help?
Could it be... dare I say.. Bricked.
Can't even do a hard reset.
Your gonna have to do a hard reset. i've had the same, but search to NBD8.0 forum the procedure is there if you can't google it for hard reset of your device. also try to keep your reply/questions in that particular post and try not create a post when one already exsits for the rom your using. They stress the fact that you must read before asking a question that's been asked a thousand times.

I had the same problem with a different rom, but the same OS. If you see the boot splash screen, and the boot stops in there, press the power button and keep it press when you notice that the boots hangs up. it might power off you device, o bring it to life.
To do a hard reset on a wizard, you must press the comm button + voice dial button + reset button (with the stylus).
Then press send when the screen ask for it.

Did you remove your SD card, sometimes that helps
Eelco
while doing your hard reset, don't let go of the two buttons after you have used the sylus.
NDB 8.0 stuck at the 3rd screen- PLEASE HELP!

Thanks in advanced for your guys help!

I have the same problem too on v7.9 and v8.0. I've soft resetted the next day, and it always gets stuck on the 3rd splash screen. I tested this out a couple of times. But when I was using v7.4 I never had that problem.
I just had the same problem (stuck on NBD screen) with 7.9, after trying to access an html file saved on the sd card. A hard-reset solved the problem (after some brick-scare time, though ... )
the problem I have is I can't even get pass the 3rd screens. soft-reset and hard reset did not help. Tried to get the the bootload to reload the os but CAN'T.
The problem I have is I can't get pass the 3rd screen. Hard or soft resets didnot help. I want to reload the OS but CANT get to the bootloader screen. Tried all combination of keys that described on this forum. Anyone has any other ideas?

this should work:
- turn it off
- remove sd card
- while pressing the voicedial button turn it on (keep pressing the voicedial button till bootscreen appears)
- reflash os
It would help me a little if those who are having this problems gives more details (g3 or g4, ipl/spl version, extra software installed, do they use touch version or not)
Zoki, here are my details : NBD 7.9 touch on a G3, IPL/SPL 2.26, GSM 2.11 (the t-mobile version, i flashed the 2.69 version since) running BatteryStatus 1.04.201 beta3. Nothing more installed except tom tom 6.02 and opera mini 4 beta. I was browsing the minisd card with the built-in file explorer to open an html file with IE when it completely froze.
I tried holding the power button in order for it to reset, to no avail. I popped out the battery, remove the sd card, but it stuck on boot on the NBD screen. After trying several times, I hard-reset it, and it worked.
I count on upgrading to ipl/spl 3.08 before installing NBD 8.1.
Update: I flash on a laptop computer running XP Pro, and before installing NBD 7.9 I flushed the t-mobile 2.26 version, as recommended somewhere in this forum. Last program I installed, several hours before the freeze (and forgot to mention) was Deepfish (latest version).
Zoki, i am ready to help if you need to run tests/debug/log, thank you very much for your work !
Is the lock up happening after you install software?
I have experienced the same issue when I install any third party software into NBD V8. I think this is one of the best ROMs I have worked with and tested other than this issue.

My is a G3 Version.
CID Unlocked
IPL/SPL Versions 2.25
Base Rom V8, No changes, TouchFlo enabled
installed via ShellTool
OS of host machine: Vista Ultimate with XP HTC device drivers.
Issues installed when installing any cab file or installation from Active sync.
I had to do a reset and then I noticed it locks up in the NBD screen. The issue can only be resolved with a hard reset.
Hope this helps... Will be looking for any input and if I can help in any way! PM me!
Here is my setup
Mine is a G3 Version.
CID Unlocked
IPL/SPL Versions 3.08
Radio 2.19 and 2.69 (tried both w/ same problem)
Base Rom V8, No changes, TouchFlo enabled
I have installed:
Bluetooth Headphones
Hardware GPS unit
Coreplayer
iGo Myway gps software
Piscel Browser
Now I have tried to test it out to see what is making the system freeze on that 3rd screen. So I installed each of those programs. Then I do a soft reset. It starts up fine each time. My problem seems to happen like the next day or so. If I soft reset the next day, then it will freeze. So i'm not totally sure if it's 3rd party software or not. When I was using his 7.4, I had all these programs installed and no problems with soft reset.
I've done the take out SD Card, reboot and whatnot. Same problem. The only thing that works for me is to either Hard reset (holding comm manager button, voice record button + reset button) or to go into boot mode (power button + camera button + reset) and do the reflash.
Bottom line is though, it's a great rom, i love it. Having it freeze isn't totally a big deal to me, since I keep my stuff backed up through the PIM. I think I just need to stay away from doing soft resets. Hopefully someone will figure out what is going on with it. But for now i'm fine with it.

HELP!!
Can't get the the bootloader screen
Anyone know how to get to the bootloader (3 colors) screen? I tried the power+talk+reset, comm+talk+reset, messaging+ie+reset, etc. - none seem to work. Anyone has other ideas?
hi everyone. yesterday i installed dr. gonzo's wm6.1 rom in my VOX. it was great and it worked perfectly in my phone.
The main problem started when i restored the backuped data. I took, This backup with sprite backup tool before upgrading my mobile from wm6.0 to wm6.1. when i restored this data taken in version 6.0, in version 6.1, i found that my homescreen is blank. whenever i press start button i find the following message display on my screen: Cant Find ':MSSTART' (or one of its components). MAKE SURE THAT THE PATH AND FILENAME ARE CORRECT AND THAT ALL THE LIBRARIES ARE AVAILABLE.
The same messge appears when i press any numeric key replacing MSSTAART with MSCDIAL.
Actually, when i backuped the data it also backuped the registry settings and when i restored the data it applied version 6.0 registry settings to version 6.1.
Now, neither my phone is getting connected to the activesync nor it is getting HARD RESET(I tried many times to Hard Reset it, but never succeeded. What happens is that as soon as i press the POWER button while holding both the soft keys, the phone TURNS OFF).
Please cananyboby help me? can anybody tell me that is there any other way to hard reset? or, how can i restore the phone back to factory settings?
Thanks for understanding my problem so patiently.
hoping to get a solution soon.
thanks
Get the battery out for a few seconds and put it back, and then do a hard reset.
But I think that you are not doing hard reset correctly, you have to press power button and both soft keys while your phone is turned OFF, then your phone will ask you to pres green button and it will do a hard reset.
must press the green dail key to comfirm the reset operation
error in uPgrading the ROM
Ive tried many times to hard reset but it dosent seems to take place. i tried to reflash my phone from the bootloader mode but it dosent seem to fi my problem. it showed an error while reflashing stating IMAGE FILE IS CORRUPT. IVE attached an image of that error.
any help???
LOL~~~
I see, first shut down your s710, hold the 2 soft keys
and then press the power button shortly (must not too long)
ive performed hardreset 3 times earlier but this time i cant hard reset just because of the problem. the problem is that none of its functions are working. i really need some help this time!!!
I am using this rom, it can be hardset by this method.
hold the 2 soft keys utill dialog show, press the power about 1.5-2 sec.
Hard reset capabilities are not dependant on the ROM. You need to properly flash with a signed HTC ROM or USPL and then an unsigned ROM. I don't think you're doing the proper steps involved to hard reset or to flash correctly. Re-read the Wiki.
Problem Solved
I was trying to flash 6.1 version after the problem occured so it showed IMAGE FILE currupt. Then I tried to flash the original(manufacturer's) version in the bootloader mode. everything went properly and my vox flashed perfectly.Now i've once again flashed the 6.1 version and is working great.
'My hearty Thanks' to everyone for the help and support.
HOW TO FLASH, HARD RESET i-mate JAQ, please help
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i-mate JAQ restart problem, how to hard reset or flash this phone, please help. How to get into bootloader mode please help all respected members. Can i flash with JAF WMA to this phone?
Finally I've found.
from http://www.amazon.com/i-mate-JAQ-Smartphone-Unlocked/dp/B000KI71BS
and also http://forums.cnet.com/5208-6140_102-0.html?forumID=57&threadID=254732&messageID=2529411
I'll simple copy and paste:
- Factory reset is accomplished via software in the "Settings" folder. There is no provision for a hardware "hard" reset. This means that if the device won't boot for some reason, you are out of luck. Most devices have a certain sequence such as "Reset + Power + Volume" or some such, to allow a factory or "hard" reset if the device is locked up entirely. Removing the battery will not perform a hard reset. As a matter of fact, this exact situation occurred; my JAQ would not respond to the Settings -> Factory Reset Icon. I discovered that the device can be reset by pressing RESET, IMMEDIATELY followed by pressing the Fn Key + the right-hand soft key for 6 seconds. This will force a hard reset.
Found this took me about 5 months!
It's hard to find information on the JAQ since it's not made by HTC. i-mate is based in Dubai, and it's even harder to get information out of them. Their forums are terrible.
my imate jaq's battery shows 0% even then it works for 32 hrs continously... what to do .... reply on email pz .. [email protected]

i still havent got any solution for hard reset how is that?
hello experts
i want to explain my problem here and i hope that i could found any help
my htc tytn ii worked for 1 year in a perfect condition
but the problem happened when i tried to upgrade the rom to wm6.5
everything was fine tell the device frozen and i pushed the reset button
the device hard reset instead of soft reset
that happens most of times i try to soft reset (not every time)
some times it happens even if the device is not frozen
it is completely random every time defferent software, cooked rom, hard spl, radio version
every time it hard resets automatically.
am i have to go back to wm 6.1 (i hope not)
Please use the search & read the f.a.q in most rom threads as spontaneous hard reset is covered.
flash stock rom prior to 6.5 also hard spl 3.34 daveshaw.
on that note thread closed.
There is, I believe, a problem with the firmware on my Samsung Infuse phone that causes programs that have been installed, uninstalled, and installed again to be unable to save settings associated with the program. Is there a way to fix this without resorting to a hard reset? A hard reset is really a lot of work! Surely there is some way to fix this issue!
Try clearing Cache on CMW recovery.
To go into recovery:
If you are on a custom rom with extended power menu just select recovery then clear cache. Advanced clear dalvik cache.
If you are on stock rom or dont have extended power menum turn off the phone then hold volume up and down and hold also the power button, 5 second or so after the Samsung logo appears release the power button but keep vol up and down pressed then about 5 secs later release them also, that will get you to android recovery. Clear cache there.
or download a custom rom..
they're so much better then stock ROMS.
but i would think you'd have to do a reset.
use odin its not that much work you do like 4 clicks and you just wait 2 mins and your phones reset to stock again.

i'm not sure if i understood your problem correctly.
some programs may not install properly on the phone.
in those case, go to settings/manage application/
go to sd card and list them
try moving the trouble some ones to the phone.
if you do a reset on stock rom, take out the external sd card first or it will erase that too
