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.
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

Hard Reset the device:
This will wipe all the storage (not the sd card) and your device will be reset to default settings.
Hard reset (option 1)
1. Pull out the stylus.
2. With the device turned on, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN and CENTER buttons, then press the RESET button with the stylus tip.
3. Continue pressing the RESET, VOLUME DOWN and CENTER 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 ?VolUp to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel.
Hard reset (option 2)
You can also use Clear Storage to reset your device back to factory default settings.
1. On the ?TouchFlo3D Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap All Settings or goto Start and press Settings.
2. On the System tab, tap Clear Storage.
3. Enter “1234” and then tap Yes.
Hard reset (option 3)
1. Pull out the stylus.
2. Turn device OFF.
3. While pressing the CENTER button, turn the phone on with the POWER button.
4. Continue pressing the CENTER button until you see this message on the screen:
This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. Press ?VolUp to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel.
This works on at least some Verizon CDMA phones on which option 1 will not work.
Hard reset (option 4)
1. Pull out the stylus.
2. With the device turned off, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN and CENTER buttons, then press and hold the POWER button.
3. Continue pressing the POWER, VOLUME DOWN, and CENTER 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 ?VolUp to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel. (works with Alltel touch pro)

Ok this is out of the wiki, u see that all methods let u press the vol up button to really start the hard reset than. So on either method do the key presses, wait a while and then press the vol up to start the process.
Its a little try and error because u are not seeing the the actual message to press the vol up. but mybe thats worth to try until u get the point. I think option 3 is a good and easy one.
hopefully the hardreset works, maybe u can try to take a torch or bright sun light to get the display information, if the display itself is not broke u should see a slight shadow of what is written on the display. I had that problem with my wifes phone once and the information was the but its not a reflective display so it was very faint to see.
Finally tho, if all that fails:
RMA = Return merchandise authorization
It means a warrenty return.
It sounds to me like the lcd has croaked. If you dont have suitable warrenty / insurance i'd suggest ebay! i've just found a screen & digitiser for less than £25 (thats for a Raph 100, i honestly dont know if parts are the same on different raph models but i suspect they are)
Good luck!
Thanks a lot guys but nothing worked
I cant do any hard reset option but sound stills hearing perfect
I can understand why one day was perfect and next no screen!!
Can anyone confirm that the LCD Display+Touch Screen For HTC Touch Pro T7272 form the last link will work on my At&t version?
Any other advice?
Thanks in advance

Sorry to hear that nothing worked.
Not shure but if the phone fails to hard reset it is not only the screen that is broken ! Take this into account, do u still have warranty, maybe it is better so exchange the whole phone.
Well that is the problem
I live in other country so warranty is not valid here, and there is not a single place where I can take it to repair here
Very strange as one day was perfect ant the next day no screen!!
I took the battery out and then place it again, all works normal, it starts (vibrations feels) then nothing!, I know its turned on because I can move volume up or down and I hear the sound and vibration, if open the keyboard not any light turns on on it.
I´ll wait patient till some member can recomend more options in order to make it work again.
I´m so frustrated...
Thanks anyway for your kind help!

Dont give up, hope that I not get on ur nerves. But still I think a hard reset must be possible.
When u turn ur device of how do you do that ? When u turn it OFF with the power button you have to answer a question on the screen, u do not see the question but is the touchscreen working or how do you know where the YES/NO field is ??
So another way is take the batt out, and when u insert the batt than turn it on with one of the mentioned hardreset procedures.
There is than a question also but this is answered with the Volume UP button.
Maybe u need a second person for helping with the buttons,
The hardreset must be possible somehow, it cant be a broken touchpro
OK I tried with my phone and procedure 1.
VOL DOWN and CENTER with Phone ON
Then Push RESET with the Stylus and hold all three until:
After 5 seconds the Bootscreen showed, after that the message to press VOL UP for Restore.
You do not see the boot screen but just wait the time
You are so kind my friend!
I have tested all the hard reset options but none seems to work
Aparently I can´t do a hard reset
as every time I follow any process and wait 5 sec, then press vol up and it seems that nothing has happened, not even a soft reset!
Pressed center button and vol down, then press the rest button located behind the usb port (the one with a symbol for headphones....)
But nothing happens.
I´lll upload a small video with me doing the process, hope it helps in anyway
Here the link of the video I took with my problem
https://www.yousendit.com/download/ZW9DQ3QxeWFEbUx2Wmc9PQ
Hope this helps in any clue to solve my mysterious problem
Thanks a lot!!
Ok will wait for the video.
Inbetween another option, did u try to flash the ROM.
Can u get a rom to download from ur provider, to do so ?
After the flash the device more or less does a hardreset.
Update:
saw the video, it seems that the phone is not reacting to the center or the reset button. Because when u push reset, even if it is not in hardreset mode, it should do a soft reset right away.
But ur phone is straight reacting to the Vol keys, very strange.
Is the mentioned ROM update an option ??
What is the reaction when u hock the phone to the pc, is active sync working ?
Do you see the internal memory of the phone ?
Remove the SIM and any memory card, maybe they are causing trouble ?
Exactly, Raphael is not reacting to a hard reset and dont know why?
I´ll keep trying all methods.
Yes, I´ll try to reflash to the original AT&T ROM for Fuze tomorrow as today I am not close to a computer.
If you have any link for that mentioned ROM would be great, if not no problem I´ll find it.
Once again thanks a lot and I´ll keep looking this thread in case someone else have another recommendation
Cheers,

UPDTATE: I conected raphael to my computer and using pocket controller I can see that all is working ok inside but nothing on the screen, or keyboard lights.
I´ll try to hard reset now...
Hope this can help in order to solve my problem
Thanks
Attached the picture
UPDATE 2: I performed the wipe data from the device, this must be exactly as a hard reset I pressume, and nothing....
So now is there anything I can check to see if there is something loose in the connection from device to screen?
Any recommendations on how to do this?
signal from device working perfect simply does not come to screen or even to turn on light on keyboard
Any help is GREATLY apreciated!!!
What rom did you have? I had a similar problem and just had to rma it.
Hi Guys,
Tried switching SIM cards on my Nexus 5 after getting back from holiday, only to find that the screen now never turns on. I can see the phone listed on windows (not ADB) and it vibrates to power buttons etc. My urgent question is, is there ANY way to recover the data from my phone at all?
This is urgent due to me having to send this thing back to Google by tomorrow for a replacement.
Cheers,
David
Have you tried forcing a reboot by holding down the power button for 10-15 seconds?
And thankfully, it turned out that the phone is working fine apart from the screen, remembered where to tap my PIN code and all is well with the world again. Thank GOODNESS. I know you guys would do your best to help anyway
Just out of interest, has anyone else had this issue before?
i have a z1, which was working perfect one second and refdused to respond to my touch later. Neither is it the issue of water damage nor did i drop the phone. The lockscreen is visible, but i cant make my unlock pattern to open it. If i press the power button, the power off feauture is there but doesnt respond to my touch. i tried switching it off by taking my sim card out and also by using the power button and Volume UP button simultaneously. I switched the phone on but there has been no effect. Its been around five hours, please help me out. Pleaseeee. Thank you so much.
