Hi,
My CECT X1 was playing up recently and whilst playing around with It I accidentally reset it and skipped the stylus calibration screen. The screen is also locked and I cant unlock it
Does anyone know how to hard reset a CECT X1
thanks in advance
i don't know CECT.
The technical support people where I bought the phone from claim to hard reset the device you hold the `volume up` button and the `camera` button while pressing the `power` button. After 100`s of attempts and differing combinations of this process I still cant get it to reset????
Try to remove the battery and then to press those buttons while fitting it back on.
Mobile phone developers are strange creatures and seem to have more than 5 fingers, so they come up with all this crap...
Cheers,
vma
thanks for the suggestion vma, I just spent 10 minutes trying it but still no luck
Sorry for late reply but I JUST found out the combination to hard reset the phone!
thoguiht I would share incase anyone else has the same problems
It is as follows:
press the following keys simultaneously: Camera button, power button & dial key (green key)
I now got my X1 back on the road

Hi
We got a MDA Compact II for testing at work. Worked fine, but now the device is dead slow and needs ages to start. Soft reset didnt help and the main problem is we cant get the hard reset to work. From the manual it should be the Stand By Button + Reset Button pressed. But only thing that happens is that the screen goes black, nothing else. tried to hold it for longer time but no luck. It wont hard reset. We installed Mcaffee antivirus on it, it said it was the WM5 version but the uninstaller uses unload.exe which is not WM5 conform. Cant it lock the Hard Reset??
Anybody has a clue??
Thanks

Hard reset on the MDA Compact II / HTC Charmer:
Press and hold both buttons on the left hand side (camera and record).
Use stylus to depress reset button.
Release reset button - keep holding the two side buttons for a count of 4 or 5.
Press the green phone button (Send) to format the phone.
Thanks. So the manual of t-mobile is wrong

Yep - they give the instructions for hard resetting the old MDA Compact.
Hello mates, I got my atom last week and since then it gets stuck and hangs for some time until it loads again whenever I hit the reset button.
Even hard reset doesn't help and either not taking the battery out...just need to hit the reset again and again until it comes back on...
I'm currently running the leaked ROM 20062017B1WWE
just to mention the issue started even with the older ROM installed.
Please help!
Hi.
Where did you get this ROM?
I'm looking for this rom WWE_R060221N do you have it?
Your rom is older or newer then WWE_R060221N?
Can you place in Emule so I can download?
Thank YOu
Re.
Hi there. I have a similar problem with my Atom (leaked ROM of course). Somehow, hitting SR button just leaves the initial screen with O2 logo hanging. You have to hit SR button several times or take out battery to make Atom boot. But, SR with O2 plus application works OK. Actually, it may get worse after awile and even taking out battery may not help to boot Atom. I had to re-run ROM upgrading to make my Atom boot after SR, but still hitting SR button makes Atom freeze.
Seems like we've got the same
problem mate....I really think that's a hardware problem because I tried to do everything and it still get stuck and hangs on the startup screen after a soft reset is performed. Anyways I'm gonna take my Atom back to the place I've bought it so they can check it and hopefully change it to a brand new one (thats what I hope so...)
Let me know how did you handle with your own problem.
You sure you aren't too impatient? With my Atom it takes around one minute to soft reset. It has XCPUScalar installed, I'm suspecting that this is part of the reason. The O2 logo stays on for maybe 20 seconds, then the WM5 screen for 20 and finally the Scalar stays on for at least the same before I can punch in my pin code.
Re
Thanks for your response..
I don't think I'm impatient as you said because I keep waiting for the Atom to load for at least 2-3 mins after the SR button is pressed, once I even tried leaving it hangs on the o2 screen for a whole night and it was still stuck...anyways I really don't know what to do.
Any other comments would be appreciated.
Cheers.
P.S
I never installed XCPUScalar on this device and never touched the overclocking settings.
Then I would say harware problem, yes.
I have the same problem since I bought it. I resolved in this way:
If you want to soft reset your unit press on/off button and softreset at the same time, you will see the option for hard reset but don't affraid just leave it in this option don't press anything and your atom will soft reset itself with no problems.
hi eljure, i tried your suggest and it worked on the first time i pressed the power button + soft reset button together, but then again it got stuck and hang on the o2 screen after the 2nd try.....anyways i had to wait again for like almost 1 hour until it loeded up again and that after all the resets i've done while i was waiting for it to load, only a hard reset worked after that.
so I really don't know what the problem is but it's freaking me out.
the store I bought it from said only next week they gonna get a new stock of the Atom so i'm stuck with it until then.
I have similar problem..maybe the same..the phone just hangs at O2 logo. I tried to press and hold power button and press reset button then it asks to press send and end button reset to factory factory default..after I press both button, it says device clean boot...reset to factory default!!..how long do i have to wait for it to set to factory default? or which way is the right way to hard reset? Anyone knows how to repair this problem, please help

I have a similar problem where my O2 Atom will just switch off (go black) when I press the Soft Reset.
I do not get the O2 splash screen, and there is no response from any buttons or the power button. Even depressing the SR again does nothing. I have to remove and replace the battery to bring the unit back to life.
This has been happening since the phone was new (7 days ago).
ROM 20060123B1WWE.
Cheers,
Freedy.
I have the same trouble.
Hardware bug, obviously.
The title says it all really. I've tried searching the forums by the way but couldn't get it to work.
I go into connection manager from the today screen and tap on the bluetooth to switch it on, the egg timer comes up for a few seconds as if it's trying to turn on, but then can't. Is this a regular issue? I can't find a self diagnosis tool on this machine, which I've had on all my previous Pocket PCs, is there one hidden away somewhere?
Many thanks for any help.
i think it's just broken. some kind of hardware failure. i got the same problem. have to send it in. :-(
Make a hard reset. I helped for me.
Right I'll try a hard reset if someone could just tell me how to do it. Many thanks.

First hit on google for "hard reset polaris": http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_touch_cruise_polaris_hard_reset_soft_reset.html
You might wanna put some effort in it yourself first, before asking.

Point taken, but the problem with your links' information and all the hard reset guides I initially found, is that the buttons referred to aren't the same as the Orbit 2. Even if you search for Orbit 2 reset info you get a page as you've linked about touch cruise.
Anyway found the info eventually but hard resetting didn't help the bluetooth problem, looks like I've got to send it back to O2. Sucks.
My colleague's Polaris has also gone RMA because of the same bluetooth problem. Hard reset didn't help either.
BTW, now that you know how to hard reset the Orbit2, maybe you can post it here to help others?
Hard resetting Orbit2
Good point. To hard reset the Orbit2 you just push and hold down the "OK" and the windows start menu buttons simultaneously and then press the recessed reset button once. Continue to hold the 2 buttons until the hard reset prompt screen appears then follow the instructions.
So, maybe this isn't the isolated problem they'd have me believe it is then. I've noticed that when the GPS is in use + bluetooth and maybe wifi, the unit gets very hot and I wonder whether this caused it to overheat.....
Does anyone know how to reset a Samsung Omnia?
Mine's stuck at bootup and i cun press anything.
I need to know if there's a series of button presses b4 poking
with the stylus to hard reset the phone to factory settings.
Thx in advance.
Did you do anything to the phone, in terms of modification? I was really interested in that thing, but having to do a hard reset on a brand new phone is a little disconcerting...
I tried installed everything that i had on my touch cruise
and everything was working superb.
Then this morning i installed HTC Home Plugin v2.1
and that hung my phone after i restart.
Now i've got no way on getting pass bootup screen.
A google search of "hard reset omnia" yielded this.

26th June 2008: Was advised by the customer service rep (CSR) on the phone that the only way to solve my hanging issue is to bring to your Customer Service Center for a firmware software reinstallation.

How awfully true..
Just got back from the service centre at Plaza Singapura.
Yup. Upgrade of software was the way to go.
The lady did say that the hard reset was the same as HTC,
pressing of the call and end button thingy but mine couldn't work.
Anyway, it was silly of me to go install the HTC Home Plugin.
Thx anyway bros for all replies..
Omnia Rocks!!

turn your phone off, than press red and green buttons and after press phone on, you will get 2 options, 1 format: press phone on, 2 cancel: press phone off, in italy omnia this procedure is working.
It works man!!
Eureka!
Yes it does 2 x's now and one after a firmware update to version i900DXHK3/DXHK3 (Singapore). Which I did earlier today.
I had some how managed to put a pass I could not get right (how who knows).
After several attempts and finally an 8 min. mandatory wait. I did it. My final solution was that I had to wait and keep device awake for time to pass. 8 long agonizing minutes~!
1. Wait till reset timer is elapsed and devices is awake.
2. press both call and end button (ie green and red) I didn't press too light or hard just normal.
3. Push stylus on soft reset and within 5-8 secs eureka format screen.
4. hit call button.
This may not help every one but those with pass problems mab.
Help! I cannot hard reset after my touch screen stopped working. Have tried pressinn gps and internet buttons, then pressing reset and keeping hold of gps and internet but device just soft resets. Would leaving the battery out do the same thing?
Alternative hard reset
Hello mate,
You say your screen isn't working but can you still use the keys and scroll wheel to navigate around the software?
If so, open the start menu and navigate to 'settings', 'system' and select 'clear storage'.
Make sure that you've removed your SD card before you do this.
It will perform a hard reset for you.
Lom
I'll try it but I think it asks you to input 1234, which I can't do without the keypad working!
Yes you do have to enter 1234 so I am totally stuck and ready to try the big hammer reset.
Can anyone help?
alternative!!
use my mobiler
this application will let u use ur ppc thru ur pc
i mean u can share n control ur ppc screen thru desktop

Cheers Mate!
Tried what you suggested but i got a message on the screen with a yes no box to install and couldn't get the button to operate using the wheel or any hardware key!
I've put my sim card in my magician and I think I may have to send the polaris back. Bet they'll say its my fault and will want paying to fix it.
I'm going to try leaving the battery out for a while to see if that will "force" a hard reset. I know I havent bashed it as it stopped working just after a phone call which is why I think hard resetting will sort it.
Tried your suggestion on my magician: nice bit of software!
The hard reset prompt is done by the bootloader, no installed software can affect it, simply because it isn't loaded yet.
Anyway, for the unlikely case of the digitizer hardware not being reset by bootloader, try removing the battery instead of pressing the reset button. Yes, thats right, remove the battery while the unit is operating, as rude as it sounds, and reinsert it while holding the GPS + Internet buttons.
It will, of course, prompt you to enter the 1234, but the touch screen should be initialized by the bootloader. If it still wont work - RMA the unit, your digitizer is faulty.
It still wouldnt hard reset so it probably is a hardware fault. looks like its going back.
Anyone else had a similar issue?:
Sent it back to HTC in Milton Keynes where thet diagnosed a duff touchscreen and replaced it under warranty. The service was very fast and hassle free. Well done HTC!
First thing I did after sprite restore (they reload with a fresh ROM) was to install my mobiler as suggested above. No worries if the screen doesn't work now.
Thanks for your help guys!
