I want to report a issue with my HTC Touc2(Mega)device which has Orange branded software.After 3 days from buying I tried turning on the device as it was closed during the night and it froze on the windows logo start up screen.I waited for more than 4-5 minutes to start but nothing.I tried soft reset from the small button beneath the back lid but still nothing,After hard resetting the device all came back to normal apparently.The issue started after applying a theme and during the unlock operation.When i push the unlock button and not the slider on the screen the wallpaper is blue instead of the normal picture this is when i use a default theme without any items selected .If I apply a different wallpaper same happens.If i import a theme from internet having .tsk extension, the default picture of the theme when I unlock is tiled as in windows PC wallpaper option.This issue is present only on certain imported themes(tiled background) and on all default themes already present in the device(the blue background instead of normal).This issue can be solved by reinstalling the Windows? Is this the because of the software re branding by Orange, in my case? The software version as it is shown during the start up is: R:3.48.25.27 G:61.41T.25.31H 66092.For better understanding please check the attached photos.
Your feedback on this is highly appreciated
I have the phone for 2 weeks, and it froze once. I had to hard reset it. U cannot reinstall windows (hard reset reinstalls the ORANGE rom) - the official european version, your phone, as mine, it's orange branded. In order to "free" it, we have to wait for HSPL, or try using the goldcard from qmat (must be registered version)
Thnx for the reply angel I was afraid that i need to wait for the spl.bad that there is nothing else to do.I didn't get what you can do with the gold card,can you use coked Roms after the unlock?
with goldcard u can install any ROM, including cooked ones
By the way I went to HTCRomania and they can unlock the phone and resoft perfect legal buuut there is no soft for it.so again we have to wait maaanyy ages from now on I'sure.

Is there any way to flash tilt via sd card? I show few thread on this site but they are for different brands phone. if there is a way can some one tell me how?
Reset to three color screen with USB
Hit reset, camera and power button all at a time, you will see the three color screen, put your usb port and flash with old rom. That's it....

LOL....should have flashed the radio first
Like the other person said...go the boot loader (aka tri color screen) and install a compatible WM6 Radio.

Hello forum members,
would you please help me have the BT HTC S710 Original ROM? I have only seen the BT HTC S620, which when I tried to flash with to rebrand, blanked my HTC S710 screen. When I turn it on, only the two green lights come on either side of the phone ear piece.
It means that a hard reset is not visible on my screen, there is no tri-colour display either.
I have tried other ROMS, and get invalid id errors and error 270. I have tried Dr Gonzo and related ROMS.
It's now three days, no phone no pim, I am lost.
Thanks for your attention.
YOSEFE.
PS. You may PM me if convenient.
Hi YOSEFE,
I have the same problem
I tried the 620 rom and just have the 2 green LED's. I cannot get a bootloader screen and attempts to flash new roms get to 3% and then I get errors.
Did you ever sort this problem out?
Paul.
Have you unlocked ur USPL in ur phone?
You tried to flash a S620 ROM to a S710???? Look in the Wiki, there is a link to the official ROMs on the ftp...

Yes, I'm afraid I did, by mistake, flash 620 ROM to the 710 [feels rather stupid!]
Not happy with BT’s [mobile operator] own ROM and software that went on the phone, I successfully flashed Dr. Martin Gonzo’s Windows Mobile 6.1 v1.1 and have been using it for a couple of months but when BT launched their new phone software, I decided to try it but because it won’t work with WM 6.1, I needed to then revert back to BT’s old ROM and this was the only one available that I could find [feels rather stupid again].
The screen is completely black; only green LED's on each side of the earpiece shows any sign of life.
Connecting the phone via ActiveSync shows “HTC-S620 Connected” and I am able to browse the files on the phone but not having a display on the phone, I am limited to what I can do.
I have tried running RUU_Vox_HTC_WWE_1.34.405.1_4.1.13.54_03.10.90_Ship.exe but ActiveSync connection is lost and I hear the Windows hardware removed sound shortly after the progress bar is shown.
I’m at a loss as to what to try
Paul.
Shut it down, then hold down camera button and plug in the usb cable. The boot screen should appear and you should be able to flash the normal ROM!
I cannot get the boot screen, or any screen for that matter.
I have tried taking the battery out to make sure the phone is off. Reinserting that battery then holding the camera button down and then inserting the usb lead. The keypad lights up for a few seconds then goes out. ActiveSync then connects but the screen is still black
Paul.
[Edited: Sorry duplicate post]
Sorry for replying to my own post but a quick update...
I have managed to bring the phone back to life and reinstall Dr. Martin Gonzo’s Windows Mobile 6.1 v1.1 on it again.
This is partly assumption and not particularly accurate but the original poster (YOSEFE) might find this useful.
By installing the S620 rom on the S710, not only did I make the screen go blank, I think all the keys ended up remapped and mixed up, therefore any attempt to install Gonzo’s rom ultimately ended in failure because when the phone beeped and wanted a keypress to continue, pressing the left softkey for ‘OK’ or ‘Yes’ did not work because it had been remapped to do something else.
What worked for me is that when the phone beeped during the uspl_116_jockyw.bat install, I pressed the X or C key (I can’t remember the exact one now). One of these keys must have been the ‘OK’ or ‘Yes’ key after the S620 rom muddled things up. I only know this by trial and error over the period of today.
To my glee, the backlight lit up on the display and after a bit of tinkering, I’m back in action again
I won’t be installing a rom designed for another model again!
Paul.
Bat 'n' Ball,
sorry for not returning here to see your post. I will remember the possibility of pressing "X" or "C", should I make the same mistake as before, although like you, I should never do that ever again. However, technology being what it is, who knows?
In the end BT got me sorted out.
Thanks for sharing.
So I'm backpacking around Europe and decided to go without a PC and wouldn't you know it.... My phone is screwed up.
The problem is that I was using TomTom the other night in Norway and I think I either waterlogged the screen or maybe a driver failed in SW. I have been having problems with a certain software combo on top of PDAUltimate and have had to 'reset' the OS because it got painfully slow.
So my question is about if there is a way to reflash the guy or get it to run the 'reset' process where it reinstalls the OS and clears it without a screen (only keyboard) and while it is locked?
See the screen died but I could still run most apps with just the keys at the bottom. However one of them runs the 'Lock' command on the home screen and that's the one I hit. ;( I could unlock it if I could slide the bar but the screen is not working so I can't do that.
Question #2. Is there a way to work the unlock slider from the buttons?
If I could get back to the start menu then I could run the system reset command there.
I did think about getting the files onto a SIM and use the Hard SPL to reflash so that is my long term solution but for now I have no PC.

Do a master rest. Hold in the 2 softkeys and use stylus to push reset button. It will reload OS from begining. remember to pull SD and sim cards
Well it all depends if your ROM had screen alignment and stuff on cold boot or not! If it doesnt, then you are good to go, if not, you have to use the screen.
Disable auto lock for #2
I had the same issue with sat nav and pda ultimate, hard reset didn't fix, the only solution is to flash another rom, i have had this issue with the 3 latest PDA roms with igo and tom tom.
Hello all,
I'm hoping this can be fixed, for my fiancée's sake, as she has alot of pictures and videos of our little boys when they were born and can't be replace on her Treo 750v, unlocked via code from Voda, it's still running WM5.
It started when she was sending a text, press sent, and randomly, parts of the list of messages starting turning into blanks, around that time it popped up saying low on memory, she deleted a installer cab for facebook, and the little busy circle appeared but did nothing and crashed the phone, so she took the battery out, put it back in and now all it does is boot with the Palm logo, goes onto the Windows Mobile splash screen then blank, pressing red brings the keyboard light on and makes the key sound, but doesn't do anything, all with the blank screen. The orange light flashs for loss of signal constantly, but the red charge light doesn't come on at all, and ActiveSync doesn't pick up anything. I can boot into the bootloader screen, which behaves as it should, getting picked up by windows. I have tried itsutilsbin, but does nothing as ActiveSync isn't initiated to try and pull the files off the device. And Google has only so much information.
So I'm pleading (nicely ) is there anyway to get files off a semi-bricked Treo? I am competent playing and messing around with flashing and upgrading, and willing to try anything to get all the files off it.
Hope someone can help!
how many photos can you fit on a palm without a memory card cant to much can it. Well have you tried ringing palm and ask them if they have data recovery. there is one very very very long shot like 1% chance that it will work and do not do this if you can not find a data recovery program for the palm is hard reset it if you can then run the data recovery software. I do repeat 1%!!!!!!!!!!!!! I say ring palm see what they say.
The problem is the following: suddenly the device froze, and I waited quite alot before pulling out the battery. After that it would not start: it showed the HTC logo, over a white background, then, a black background with a sound and that was it.
I triede to reset it contless times withh no succes.
So I went into bootloader and made a factory reset, it worked but again the phone froze completely. What do I do now?
Edit - new info: now sometimes it starts after it freezes, and sometimes I have to pull out the battery, something is definetely wrong here...
Have try to flash ruu

No, I haven't tried to flash any RUU, I'm on the original ROM.
No more frezes since last freeze last night an hour after i started this topic; I reinstalled some apps but not as much as before; hope I'm lucky and things stay like this....
Anyone else had problems similar to this?

Exactly the same thing happened to mine this morning - it froze during normal operation (after six weeks of perfect use) I had no response to hardware buttons or screen touches so I was forced to remove the battery in order to reboot it.
It then would boot but each time would stick at the white htc logo screen and then the screen would timeout.
I was dreading that I'd have to try a hard reset just after I'd finally set the phone up as I like it.
so I removed the sd card from the device and rebooted by removing the battery once again
the device then booted normally, so I did a controlled power off, replaced the sd card and it booted fine.
Thankfully all fine so far (two hours later) fingers crossed.
The application that I was using when the device hung was a streaming digital radio apps that was located on the sd card.

The absolutely same symptoms. DS hangs installing new app. Has carried it in service-center. Now I wait for diagnostics results
Did you try to remove the sd card?

For sure.
After the first hangup I have taken out the battery. Then DS hung again showing the HTC logo, over a white background. Then SIM has been removed. SIM were the first suspect. At the very first day of owning DS I have been forced to get new SIM card from mobile provider. Previous card was quite new, only one year old and works normally in Xperia X1i and other phones, but doesn't recognized in DS).
Finally, when I delivered phone in service-center, it was without the SIM and without SDHC cards, but all problems were the same.
Dare I ask was what was the application that you installed?

ReadItLater, but I think that it is simple coincidence. Phone wasn't started even when I managed to make factory reset (Volume Down+Power). After that phone wasn't launched any more.
Needed Hard Reset!

Removing both cards solved it for me today
The frequency of the reboots on mine increased and today it crashed. Hard reset brings it to the white screen + htc logo but no further.
Tried with and without SIM Card, with and without SD card. The only way it will get past the white screen is with both cards removed but then of course, you get to the screen where it tells you to take insert a SIM Card. Doing so, turns the phone off again, but then (for me at least), it was OK to carry on with setting up the phone....which I am now doing...hope this isn't going to be a regular feature.
So far I've only got the stock ROM and nothing clever on it.

Blimey, thats doesn't sound good
This is the point where I had to perform my first hard reset to re-enable the device.
How many times has this happened to you now and in what timeframe? have you had to do a hard reset before now?
I'd consider getting a new replacement SIM card and even using a different SD card, just so that you can rule them both out of causing the problem and if it happens again then return the device and be confident that its at fault!
If you return the device currently the shop's bound to say that the problem is with SIM and/or SD!
I've had it about 2 months and the involuntary reboots must have happened about 8-10 times starting in a about week 2. A sort of partial reset happened about a week ago (wallpapers and app short cuts disappeared). Then the phone crashed today while dialling into voice mail (Vodafine UK), and rebooted into a black home screen that would report a com.<whatever> error if I tried to get into the settings, or run anything. It would let me power off, but the only way to invoke the hard reset was vol key down when powering up
Today has received the answer from the service center.
They didn't name the reason, but have told that it is a guarantee case. Have suggested to replace the motherboard.

did you flash a ROM? which one? did you wipe the phones partitions before the ROM flash via recovery?
