Welcome to the forum
Have you tried a hard reset?
when exactly does it hit enter?
Same Issue
I am having the same problem, and yes I have done a hard reset. I bought the tilt used from ebay and it was a mess when I got it.
While texting or entering text anywhere for that matter it seems as though the keyboard is automatically inserting an "enter" or "return" so the next letters appear on the next line down.
The same thing occurs when trying to use the address bar in PIE or enter login information for messengers/email accounts. I am thinking it is a hardware issue, but any help would be appreciated.
for example, a text message would look like this:
From:
To:
Hel
l
O
ho
w
a
re y
o
u
tod
a
y
It seems to insert it randomly and also randomly "enter" in the address bar, example: when trying to go to google.com, it will end after "g" and be searcing for http://g/
EXACTLY
Mine does the exact same thing and ive hard reset and everything.
any sollution to this problem ? In my TYTN II jogg- button doesn't work too. Maybe there is a connection with this .
I found that jogg button was broken. Now everything is fine.

I'm pulling what's left of my hair out.. Somebody must know how to help me out.
My problem is. As a subby to a very large firm, I have been issued, along with hundreds of other guys, a T Mob MDA II details bit:-
R 1.06.01
G 1337.16
D 1.60.00WWE
I guess you'll need it. Well, an admin geeza has locked them all up sooo tight we can use it to make a phone call and oh yes the other thing receive a phone call.. Imagine my excitement!!!
NO menus no FUNctions nothing! just login as administrator. Now, though very basic, i have a laptop running W98, with Microsoft active sync 3.8, a comm D9 pin to cradle (XDA II from O2 shop) oh yes and no active sync!
what can i do to open access to this wonder of Tech and close the "Kiosk Switcher" window i may not escape from??
PLEASE HELP ME! P.s. great site guys, lookin forward to using my unit as soon as i can.
Doesn't it violate any company agreements/contracts if you modify your company issued MDA ?
Oh where to begin indeed...
Well, i have actually paid in full for the MDA. It's locked up to stop some ppl messing the things up. I'm not the brain of brit but i have a plan. 512mg MMc on its way and no danger of compant software being messed up. :idea:
Please do begin!! Help me..
Also, how long will it take for a donation receipt to come through, i'll need it for the tax man?

buzz

Well, it sounds to me that they have modified a reg. string that gets loaded and written during the hard reset, (i.e. somewhere in the Ext_Rom!)
Try to press CANCEL while loading (installing) the ExtROM stuff and if the TAPDisable is functional.. then press on the center NAV button during the same process.
I know that restriction :evil: it sucks huh :?:
how about if you just reflash it to 1.72?
all that admin stuff will be gone as last year's snow...
you can even flash it with 1.60 stock version if you like...
buzz
still stuck!
Helpful.. Well, tried the cancel and nav button via hard reset and no joy as yet. now trying to read up on how to re flash.. Any suggestions? :?

Since you paid for it, take it to the admin geeza and tell him to unlock it.
Make sure you look menacing when you tell him.
Update!!
Joy, got in by nav keying the hard reset! Result, had a play but most s/w hadn't installed. This gave me a taste of things to come. Now i looked in the startup for this alpha sequence that boots the thing to locked window and realised it hadn't been installed yet so unable to get rid now i know it's there some where as i hard reset it again and back to sq 1 again!!! this stuff is stored somewhere, but where should i look. gained active link via IR aswell. will re try just need a map to the memory holding install S/W in the hope that maybe i can re write the lock up bit and hard reset to an open book!
Does any one know what the hell i'm on about???? :?
Now that you have succeeded in breaking the start-up sequence, you are left with a basic WM2003.
What did not install iis in the ExtROM.
IF
You install the ExtROM Tools (found on tis site), you can unhide the ExtROMand then one by one install the apps that are in there, UNTIL you find the one that introduces the blocking of functionalty. To do that (after unhide & unlock) look at the config.txt file. That file lists the installation script.
When you find the blocking app, one more time hard-reset, install the tools, inhide AND unlock and: Just remove the line with the app that introduces the blocking.
After you finished dont forget to LOCK the ExtROM & hard reset . . .
BTW Flashing is a good idea too, but maybe you lose some company-specific apps you might need . . .
good luck
I'm in atlast!!
Well i found the offending item last night after many resets and nav key meddling... looked in file explorer/storage and an auto run file(?) was there with a clue in it's title. i hadn't read the reply above at that time so i just put an mmc card in, cut n paste jobbie on the file to the mmc card and Bob became my uncle. I hard reset again to go for the full install and it stayed unlocked from the kiosk switcher!! RESULT! However, the above sounds like a far more sencible idea!! Will do that for the rest of the gang..
Thanks for all the help guys
oh one last Q' every 20-30 mins i get a pop up, bearing in mind i've been in every folder, programme and file, I may have changed a thing or two.. :?
"Cannot Connect
If you use a modem to connect to your ISP,
ensure that it is inserted correctly. To
connect to your work network, you must
create a modem (dailup) connection or a
VPN connection. To create a connection, tap settings.
Settings DISMISS"
What the F*** is that?? I'm still learning... What did i press?
...looks like some application is connecting regulary to internet over GPRS, but you didn't set it up yet. maybe email client...
buzz
Good point and makes sence!
I'll stop running programmes from start/settings/system/memory/running prog's, wait till it pops up and go look what's started, we'll see what it brings me..
As i type we find it's "acticesync". Cheers buzz, been a great help!!
i'm finding USB settings every where but my cradle is a D9 pin comm connection. Is there some specific settin listed in the instruction manuals we never had with the MDA's?
Oh yes. the V2.2 unlocker worked first time for me. No probs as yet to report... OPCS sim works fine. better signal in some places but only to be expected from a different network!
... it is funny...
i can remember, that there was a guy here on the forums, some time ago, asking how he can lock XDAs for employees... just wanted to allow them using the phone only...
maybe it was your geeza admin... ;o)))
try to search for those threads... maybe you'll find some interesting info..
buzz
Tellin me!
Buzz,
YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE..... Just how much info there is on Locking these up. Every site every official O2 an T Mob Site hold details on who, where and how to lock the babys up. Could i find a thing on unlocking?? Beleive me I did my home work. I know soo much about the selfish safe software and by total luck i heard of this site. Full of PDA guru's i was told!
Hat's off to you guys, you got a great, all be it, hush hush reputation!
Cheers for the guidence guys. If i wasn't told you could interrupt the installer i would have tied a noose round the MDA's bettery by now!! Hope this string helps others in my OLD shoes.

I upgraded our first SPVM1000 (xda2 from orange) with WM5 and it all seemed to work fine.
I then up upgraded the second and it went fine. The second one is still workign completely fine with no problems. We noticed that the first one could not get reception. If you put its sim card in the other phone then it works. Now I tried with with Orange and Vodafone sims. They work in PDA 2 but in PDA 1 there is no reception (it was working yesterday).
Then it kept coming up with an error saying that it was sorry for the inconvenience but there was an error with cprog.exe.
After a reset (power button and soft reset button) that stopped happening but then I found that I could not active sync PDA1. It cant connect and so connects as "guest". After what used to be a hard reset, everything is still as though I just did a soft reset with WM5 - not sure why.
Then I tries to backdate it to the old rom. If I use OSImage tool it wants it to be active synced which doesn't work (v3.8 or v4.0). I also tried to reupgrade with WM5 again (a fresh installation) but althoght it will go into boot mode with Serial 1.03 and then USB 1.03 appearing on the screen, the upgrade fails. It says there is a communication error.
Everything is working with PDA 2 so it cant be a connection fault. I think I did something and now I got myself in quite a pickle.
Can anyone help please?
I'd be happy to reset / reboot right back to the beginning again though I'd like to keep WM5.
Thanks
Anthony
Solution (how to hard reset in wimdows mobile 5)
Hard resetting WM5 has fixed all of these problems including the phone reception. To hard reset (sometimes called clear reset in the forums) you have to press the tape and camera buttons and then the soft reset with the stylus. This is on an XDA2 (SPVM1000) and is different since upgrading to WM5 (prev power button and the soft reset did the trick). I found lots of websites giving different instructions on how to do this but for the XDA2 type this works.

for you IM+ users out there...i'm having a big problem getting this to run properly on my Touch. I've used it before on my MDA and Wing with no issues at all, except the ocassional disconnect. Here's the problem: when i pull up the soft keyboard to type, the screen does not format correctly (i.e., the chat box is behind the keyboard) and when I attempt to close the keyboard, part of it stays open and i'm not still not able to see the chat window. It's basically nonfunctional like this. I've tried older versions and have had the same issue. Is this a problem with non-sliding keyboard phones? any help would be appreciated as I really love this program and want to continue using it.
the only program i've found that can compete with IM+ is Palringo..but I have a problem with getting disconnected and getting the error message "you've been connecting and disconnecting." anyone know a fix for this as well?
yea i have the same problem with IM+
it touchflo breaking it i built my own rom to fix it pm me if u need it
Hello, thankyou everyone who takes the time to read this and to help. My HTC Touch Pro, the screen is completely black, it turns on and I can recieve calls and I know the keyboard works, but I cant even tell who it is or what I'm typing since the screen is blacklight and won't show anything. It powers on and off and charges and i can hear the sounds so I think its just a problem with the screen.
I've tried MyMobiler and Pocket Controller, but both cant work for me because I first need to connect to Activesynce or Windows Mobile Device Center, but I can't even see the password I'm typing so I can't unlock the phone to view it on my computer (( so I can't get it to connect to activesync or WMDC.
I really wish it was'nt locked with a password because then everything would be easier I'm so upset by this DDD:
I can't hard reset either because I can't see the screen at all.
Should I try to open it up and replace the screen&digitizer myself? I really don't want to try spending extra money fooling around with the phone if I'm not sure it'll work.
What I'd really love to know, does anybody know how to view the phones screen on the computer without having to unlock the password first from the phone? If anyone can help me with that or find some other method than I'd realyREALLYReallyyyy appreciate that sooo much. I could just type the password from the computer or hard reset and everything.
Or if theres any other method of fixing this that would help too...
Also, I can't take it to Sprint store because its out of warranty/insurance, so
I'm just trying to repair it myself. I've heard of this happening to people before but have'nt ever seen it get fixed.
Again, THANKYOU to anyone thats reads or tries to help !
Have you tried "Hard-Resetting" using the 3 Key Combo? (Hardware Mode)
Or were you trying with the "Clear Data" option? (Software Mode)
I had this when I went snowboarding with my Touch Pro. Turns out slamming the slider shut quite hard fixed the problem.
Hope it helps.
XDA Orbit2. Can't access. Message on screen says "Several incorrect passwords have been entered.To continue password entry, enter 'a1b2c3' . In case of emergency, enter an emergeny phone number. "
As I can't access the keyboard I can't enter anything. Soft reset just returns to the same screen. Can't do a hard reset. Can connect via Active sync.
Can anyone suggest where I could go from here?

First of all you should try hard reset again by:
- Press and hold the GPS/MESSAGING and INTERNET EXPLORER
buttons, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET
button at the bottom of your device.
- Release the RESET button, but continue pressing the GPS/ MESSAGING and INTERNET EXPLORER buttons until you see this message on the screen " This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. Press send to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel "
- Release the buttons, and then press SEND on your device to perform
the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
if it still does not help try to reflash with official rom which you can get in http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows mobile&model=Polaris
Thanks for the reply. I've tried to hard reset many times but the screen defaults to the error message as described in the first post. As I have no experience of flashing the Rom can you point me to a step by step guide to doing this ?

as mentioned in your first post, that device can not connect via Active sync !! so you'd better try to flash the rom via SD card. concerning the guidelines you can look at ~ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2104049&postcount=1
Thank you for the reply. Perhaps I didn't make myself properly understood but I can establish an ActivSync connection and can see my phone on my laptop it just that the phone itself only shows the error message. Can I do anything via the PC aActiv Sync link that might restart the phone? Thanks again.
Try http://www.mymobiler.com/ you can install via active sync and use your pc keyboard to enter the password

I have tried Hard Reset by pressing the green and red phone keys at the bottom of the phone and pressing the reset button at the same time but it still comes back the same screens as abopve. I have connected the phone to my laptop with Active Sync but it gives error message that my phone is locked and to unlock it and try again :-( HELP please as I am completely stuck.

how to do a hard reset as I point on the previous post it is for O2 XDA Orbit 2 and not for O2 XDA
Hi
I have an extremely noob question, and will probably be the first in a series of them.
In all the instructions for hard reset of xda orbit 2 it says to press the send button.
There is no send button on my phone
I have
Ok
windows
phone pick up
phone hang up
and a big round one in the middle used for select in navigation
None of which seem to hard reset the phone.
When I say that, I mean everything including my settings are still present after hitting those keys.
I think I need to flash it as its being all weird but would like to try a hard reset first.
I'd appreciate any help in baby language
