Tonight at 12 midnight my phone crashed.
On my screen now all I see is the following message:
This concludes the beta test of this software release. Thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers.
To obtain a newer release or further information please revisit the web site that you used to obtain your current beta release

Could this have something to do with the NAFT Rom I was running.
Above the message I see the windows logo in the upper left and then the word Start - but nothing works when I click on those. In addition when I try to sink to my computer it does not connect, so I can not explore using ActiveSync or even going through My computer. I am stumped on what to do?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Same here, Just stopped working a hour and a half ago, (12:00 AM EST 03/01/09)
I am running a custom radio and RRE Fuze Edition.
Same as above. Why the hell do developers even put this **** in.
Guess your having the same problem as the guys with ROMeOS with the 21009 build...
It was leaked so it was beta, and ms put a timebomb in it. You need to install a new rom from bootloader.
I'm not using ROMeOS, I have RRE Fuze Edition. (Well it may be, I frankly don't remember what one it was. Thats what displays on that start)
Is there anyway to not lose my data?

WHY would NAFT (or anyone else) use the program if this is a possibility?
Can you please explain how to use the bootloader to install new ROM
This is SO frustrating. I am on a business trip!

Yea what I meant was apparently its also affecting other roms because they all used the same build (21009) in their rom. Anything on your phone is gone. I THINK the sd card is safe
****ing ****, why the hell do devs do that.
Ya SD card is obviously safe, but last time I did a backup was like a month ago (Ya i know...)
God damn this sucks.

Yea your going to have to install a new ROM buy downloading it and then putting the rom onto the root of your sd card. make sure the rom is RAPHIMG.nbh (and you only need the .NBH) Then hold vol down and reset until the tricolor screen comes up. It'll scan the sd, find the rom, press power button to flash.
Hope it works for you
P.S. dont forget to hard reset when your done!
P.P.S they most likely didn't know that this was a beta build that ms had put a timebomb in. Just another one of the reasons that people should really take the whole "flash at your own risk" thing seriously

how do I put ROM on the root of my sd card. I can not see the card on my phone because when attached it does not recognize the phone at all.
Hard reset after flashing? How come?
Sorry that im not more technical, ive had this phone for months and yet ive barely messed around.
It's just always recommended to hard-reset after installing a new rom. It's basically to ensure that you won't have any bugs or such.
Make sure you do it at the right time though! Wait until you get to the "Tap screen to setup device" screen. Then hard reset, which in case you didn't know is vol down center button, and reset until the tri color comes up, then vol up to reset

I have my microSD adapter, it came with mine. But my camera isnt recognizing it so its not appearing on my PC. And I don't have a normal SD connecter, GGRRRRRRRRRRR.

May not know...I'll hit him up with a PM if his thread isn't already covered in messages like these.
Have you tried a HARD RESET (hold the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER (center) Buttons, press the RESET button with the stylus tip, then release the RESET button but continue to hold the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER buttons until the reset screen appears)
Havn't tried a hard reset but I guess I might as well, gonna lose everything anyway.

A hard reset is just most likely just going to result with the user having the same out-of-date rom as he did before, resulting in the same message

You don't need the adapter. Just put the phone in bootloader mode by turning the phone on while holding the volume up button and flash like you normally do. This is how I usually flash so that I can skip all the activesync junk.
Hope this helps!

what I have done is hard rebooted and reinstalled factory defaults to at least get the phone working. but after coming back up with the default settings, the phone automatically reinstalled NAFT's ROM, which then put me back at the crashed message. going to try again.

Wow... talk about getting defensive.
Define doesnt boot. Does it power on at all? Can you get to the bootloader?
Sent from mALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!!
To load a bootloader:
Remove the Stylus.
Remove the Battery Cover.
Press and hold the power and volume down buttons
While holding the buttons insert the tip of the stylus into the Reset hole located on the back of the device to the right of the USB port (the hole is labeled with Reset).
The device will then Boot up and go into the bootloader (tricolor screen).
3 days back i noticed that no matter how many times i press the power button on my HTC Touch Pro(Vodafone) the back light wont go off.If i keep on pressing it a power off message would appear asking me should i switch off my phone.By changing the power settings i had set it to Turn off the backlight after 30 secs(If not used).Which helped but the problem remains the same,after the backlight goes off it wont come back no matter how many times i press the power button:/.
It would only come back by sliding the Qwerty,as a result the Phone despite of the fact being turned off is using power and my phone dies off after 3 hours or so:S.I tried resetting it by Clearing the Storage(7 times) but it didn't help.After i which i opted to Hard reset it by holding down the Vol & Enter button and then pressing the rest using Stylus,but no matter how many times i try it the stupid Vodafone startup screen would appear and it would not(Tried it when the phone was on).the phone simply wont shut down,i tried by pulling off the batter,but once the battery is in it would start all by itself:/(In this way i cant hard reset the phone while it is off:/:/).How can i hard reset it??Somebody please help me!!!!
P.S:I have unlocked the phone so that i can use it in here.
Sounds really weird... maybe you can try executing task29 and flash a new rom....
but I'm not sure...

Do you mean HardSPL? You could try flashing a stock ROM to the device after putting it in bootloader (hold volume down and press reset, keep holding volume down until you get the tricolour screen).
This thread should really be in the 'General' section...
@Ben
Sorry mate i am a new user of this forum so didn't knew in which section should i place this thread, apologies for that.
From where would i find a stock ROM and how would i flash it(Procedure in detail)?And after flashing this stock ROM would i be able to restore everything using Sprite backup?
Thanks in advance!!
Follow this guide if it's your first time, and as long as you've already backed your data up (which you should have if you were doing a hard reset anyway) then you should be fine with Sprite.

Go to the HTC website and download an original ROM from their support page.
Oh and when flashing back to stock, make sure you flash stock rom/radio first, before you remove HardSPL (see guide one post above)

Unfortunately the ROM available on HTC's(3.27.4.3) website is not supported by my phone(The text field after verifying my S/N number prompted that the ROM is not suitable for my phone).What should i do now?Shall i take the risk and give it a go??My only concern is that i don't want to end up with a locked phone after a ROM flash:/
P.S:Apologies for bad grammar.
My phone is Vodafone HTC Touch Pro GSM(Unlocked)
just give it a go. and flash it. you cant really even brick these phones. so your not losing anything. even flash a rom without the sprite backup built in. you can always get the cab
Download rom from sunnysoft, there's no Serial number check in there.
maybe your power button is broken like mine!

I doubt it as he can still power off by holding the button down. Sounds like a software problem to me... Is it the same for you with regards to powering off?
Hi i recently got a samsung nexus S, and i have not did any modifications to it like flashing custom roms on it or anything. So its straight up as original as it is.
But i seem to be having a problem with it now as it does not do a clean data wipe even if i do it with a hard reset? The one where u press and hold the power button and volume up. After that i tried doing a reset from the Settings section, it rebooted and came back on with everything still on my phone ! Nothing was deleted at all!
Anyone has any solutions to this?

I've NEVER seen that happen before, I honestly think you're somehow doing it wrong.

ok first a factory reset thru the settings option.
i went to settings > Privacy > factory data reset i dun think i can get that wrong.
when i do that it shuts off my phone. Reboots up, and i was expecting a clean phone. But everything is still there...
Nxt is hard reset, i shut off my phone, i press and hold the power and volume up until the recovery screen comes up, i select recovery, when the exclamation mark appears beside the android i press the power and volume up button again to bring up the menu and i select wipe data/factory reset. It says wiping...and when its done i select reboot system now, and it loads back to my phone ... with everything still there! hahah xD
unlock the bootloader, thatll automagically wipe the phone(and everything in storage).
hello, my friend just helped me with root/flash my phone, and the system supposedly did a factory reset.
But everything is still there =( im starting to think its a virus?
Im gonna scan it, but does anyone has any experience with these type of problems?

Like someone said before, if you don't uncheck it Google will automatically install apps from your market account after putting in your account data.
yes i unchecked it already, and i doubt google will put back all my mp3 and pictures even after i did a factory reset? I don't really think thats possible...
But anyways, yes i unchecked the automatic restore box.
sorry for the troubles im causing =(
*EDIT*
Do u guys think i would be able to format my phone by using my computer to format it like any other hard disk?
Factory reset doesn't wipe the (fake) SD card by default. Did you check the box for that?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
mp3's and pictures are not affected by a factory reset. to get rid of that stuff, do Menu > Settings > Storage > Erase USB storage.
i did that too, i even did the hard reset which supposedly wipes all data? But i reboot back in and my pattern password screen comes back up along with my usual wall paper. All my widgets still there and its like i've nvr done a reset before.

you're either not doing it right or restoring data from google... try doing it without logging back into google
i did not log back into anything, i even switched to a prepaid card to make sure i had no connections to the outside world at all lol xD
anyways derek can u please tell me what im doing wrong? I am sure i followed all the steps correctly. And the screen prompted me to make sure i wanted to erase all data, i clicked yes, and it proceeds to the "wiping data" but then when i reboot it back, everything is still there.
EDIT* I found a thread mentioning a factory format code *2767*3855# in this forum, i tried it, and it tells me connection problem or invalid MMI code. Anyone knows what gives?
please download the stock images for your phone and flash them with fastboot.

Hello,
I would like to say thanks for the people on this site that help people like me...
Ok...I am in so much trouble and I will severely get beaten by my dad when he gets home.. I really need this fixed or I am seriously going to run away from home.. I know this isn't your problem it is mine I just pray to god or who ever is listening to me I can fix this and I promise I will never, ever try to do anything to my electronics that shouldn't be done..
I was installing clock work mod and everything was working great.. then I wanted to do a back up.. so I clicked on create back up.. Well, it asked me what I wanted to name the back up file, before I click anything I looked and noticed my usb cable wasn't plugged in (thought it would have to be plugged in to make a back up.. so before I named the file what I wanted (my back up) I decided to plug the usb cable in..when I plugged it in everything frooze.. nothing would work.. so I unplugged it and now my phone only goes to the LG screen and doesn't go any further then that...
I'm in so much trouble and I'm not going to get sent to my room, I'm really gonna get beat bad, we just got this phone about 2 months ago and spent $540.00 on it...
My only option is to fix this phone or runaway... It is cold outside and I don't know where to go so I am terrified..
Please, anyone, please help me?
can you enter clockworkmod?You hold vol down and power button (power button until lg logo appears).If you can try to wipe data.If not look on development section,there's a guide how to unbrick your phone

Thanks sooo much!!! xoxoxoxoxo !!!!!!! I kiss your feet!!!!!!! Ok so I am kind of safe? I can fix it if I follow directions? it is possible to fix??
Ok so I did as you said and when I held the buttons down the logo came on and quickly disappeared..that's it.. if I just turn it on normal the logo stays on and that's it, it goes, no further....
Do you by any chance happen to have the link for the page I need?? I have until 6pm est time (5.5 hours) to fix this..
I'm worried and my hands are a bit shaky but I think I will be able to hold any buttons that need to be held..
Thanks again!!!
OMG OMG OMG
UPDATE
I did it!!!!! I think...
I am in the clock mod I think.. what I was doing wrong was when I was holding the volume down and power button I didn't release the power button...this time I released it and held down volume and it worked...
I did a set back to factory and wipe data but when I restart it still goes to the logo..
There are other options in there..should I use any of them?
My options are...
reboot system now
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
wipe cache partition and package recover
wipe nv dynamic partition
Ok...download this http://hotfile.com/dl/141083781/c3be8cf/ThiaiZO3DV2.4GB.zip.html

ok man.First of all tried this (found on another topic)
Try hard reset. But you will loose all you data!!! Before you do that, take your SD and SIM card out.
1. Turn the power off. If your LG Optimus 3D is frozen, pull the battery out and reinsert it
2. Hold the Home and Volume Down button
3. Press and hold the Power button until the device turns on
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to reset your device
If it doesn't work try to install another rom for example king 3d which solved the problem I had some time ago
Ok.. I tried what you said John and it did not work.. Still stuck at the screen..
Dr.J
I am kind of lost of what you are saying... I download what you told me too...CWM I am assuming is the thing I get into when I hold the volume down and power button.. I did a Wipe Data....
Now where is the option to mount anything? I dont see a "mount....mount USB..so that is what stage I am at with you.. I downloaded what is needed, I wiped my phone and now what?? I don't see >mount>mount usb
Thanks for all the help

Warning do not put any rom that is not for O3D or you will hard brick your phone only put on trusted roms that are made for your O3D...
ok awesome.. !!! I will do what you told me to do.. omg im so nervous I have no nails left..
So since I can't hook it up to the computer I am going to take my SD card out.. But it into the computer..Load the program on it you gave me to load...take it out of the computer and put it back into my phone.. then I have to turn my phone on..then hold the volume button down..go into CMW do a factory reset... and then how do I install the program from SD card? Will it give me a option? also should I format my SD card first before I put anything on it so it is fresh and clean and then put the program on it???
sorry, didn't mean to double post
just use a micro sd adapter to connect your sd to pc.no need for format.Copy the zip you have downloaded (gave link on my previous post-king rom) and put the sd on your phone.Then enter on cwm(vol down +plus power buttons) and:
do a factory reset
install zip from sd card,find your zip (rom) and install it
