Tried Hard Reset. No Changes in display
Let me explain , I had installed cotulla's HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O4. It was working flawless for about 1 month, till one day, when I was downloading a song, and my device hung up because of insufficient memory. I did a soft reset, and after restarting , I was surprised to see the screen with only brightness and nothing else. I reinstalled the same ROM again, while installing I could not see the progress of ROM upgrading on device screen. I finished it from PC.
Yet the problem is same. I think I have damaged my display and need to replace.
If anyone has solution Plz. Let me know.
Thank You so much

Just got a T-Mobile MDA compact. I have installed the extra applications (FAX, GPS, etc) from the CD ROM supplied with the MDA.
After the installation the PC tells you to do a soft reset on the MDA.
I then did the soft reset and once the MDA restarted the screen was all messed up. I had to do a hard reset to resolve.
Is this a common problem - is there a fix to it? I would like to know as otherwise i am going to be very reluctant to upload any other software incase this happens again.
Messed up in what way?
If it's the Today screen that's messed up, and looks like it's one screen half drawn over another screen, this is the issue when you sometimes install things in the Ext_ROM.
The fix is simple, just click Start>Settings>Today and then just tick "Use this picture as Background" and click OK, your today screen should be fixed.
I have to do this after I install Ext_ROM programs, but just do it once and the phone's fine until I install another thing.
thanks - worked a treat
i read thru ampda_how_to_ppc_upgrades_v1_159 over n over again. i followed every steps COMPLETELY. i reached to the steps where i write the new big storage rom to my magician. when the process reaches 100%, i try to soft reset it but my magician just turns blank without resetting itself. i have tried over for almost 5 times and the outcome still the same... buddies any solution?
Yesterday, I had to do a clean reset on my hp ipaq (running WM6.1) because of a problem I was having with my wifi card. The reset went as usual, and I was greeted with the "tap here to set up your device" screen. Next, the usual screen alignment test appeared. I did everything precisely as it asked, and tapped each of the targets. However, the screen alignment keeps repeating and repeating. I've been trying all night . I've already cleaned my screen, and I couldn't have been more precise with the tapping. I've tried everything, from reseting the device to letting the battery die and trying again, with no luck. After a web search, it appears I'm by far not the only one with this problem. Does anyone know a solution to this problem that does not involve buying a new device? My hp warranty is over, and I really can't afford any expensive repairs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try hard reseting it again.
How do you hard reset with buttons again?
Hello.
I have an O2 Atom with WM5.
It started for a while ago to act up.
When I used the alarm I was not able to turn it off. (The "dismiss" bottom in the lower left corner did not come up.) I tryed everything and the only thing that worked was to take out the battery and reset the whole thing.
But now the problem has developed. And I am not able to turn off the alarm at all anymore. Making the phone unusably?
Is that a known problem? If so is there anything I can do to solve it?
I have tryed to upgrade the ROM but it is allready the latest. Maybe I could upgrade it to WM6?? Is that possible? And if so how??
Best regards

i suggest you hard reset your device. to do this, hold the reset and power buttong together. a screen will show telling you to press both call and end keys (the green and red buttons). when the process is finished, see if the problem still exists. before you do a hard reset, backup any important data you may want to save.
it is also possible to upgrade to WM6, just download a ROM and follow the instructions. usually takes less than 30mins for the upgrade process.
hope this helps.
Thanks very much. That did the trick. It took some time to reinstall the backup. But it was worth it.

i attempted to run the .cab file for battery status, and when i did that it started installing then suddenly froze, then upon resetting the phone using the button on the bottom, it loads to the today screen as it were, and then freezes and will not respond atall, i know it isnt a fault with the touch screen as i have to enter my PIN before it gets to the today screen.
i am new to this so do a "dummies" guide as it was any help will be gratefully recieved.

Um i have a feeling that you may have a little problem here.
I dont know a brilliant fix for this other than to say to do a hard reset. BUT this well restore it to defult, factory settings as when you got it. So back up your phone of anything important before you do it.
To do it hold down the start and ok buttons and press the reset button. Wait for it to bring up the screen saying 'to restore press send'.
I cannot think of a reason but if its crashing i would think that it would be having problems with loading the files for today so i would guess that on the grounds that the install didnt finish it has, unfortunately corrupted some files.
ahh thanks, got it sorted now
