My vox keeps on restarting when the microsd card is inside, and when it's outside its just doesn't getting to the home screen. It's getting stuck on the second HTC logo.
It is after I did soft reset to my device after I used the SDA_ApplicationUnlock and the new comm manager style (list):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355490
I've tried hard reset:
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=255861&mode=threaded
And it doesn't seam to work... ):
When I push all the 3 keys altogether when the VOX is off the phone doesn't even turn on, just pushing only the power button turning the VOX on.
So, how can I rescue my VOX?
By the way, I soft reset my VOX by pulling outside the SIM slot and then pushing it back inside.
to hardreset you have to :
1. turn off the phone
2. press and keep pressed the 2 softkeys
3. press power button for about 2 sec
4. release the power button, but keep the other 2 keys pressed about one more sec
5. a black screen will aprear with some white text asking for hardreset confirmation.
good luck
Nothing happens… only when I press just the power button the phone turning on.
Maybe I don't know what are the two softkeys?
Help!
the sokt keys are the 2 keys between the home and back keys and the d-pad, ie the keys above "1" n "3"
hth
Well, I was wrong about the two softkeys. But its still doesn't seem to work.
When I follow the instruction above the phone is turning on, as usual, but nothing else happens (the phone still gets stuck at the second HTC logo).
when you press the power button even if the screen lights up keep the pw button pressed for 2 sec then release it but keep the other 2 but. pressed
Still doesn't work, its continuing to the screen with the "windows mobile" logo.
I had the same promblem, fixing by removing SIM and go ahead
1. turn off the phone
2. press and keep pressed the 2 softkeys
3. press power button for about 2 sec
4. release the power button, but keep the other 2 keys pressed untill...
5. a black screen will aprear with some white text asking for hardreset confirmation.

Hi It still doesnt seem to work with me.
Because i have the same problem and i tried to do all the things from above.
This is bad. man my phone doesnt work.
That's strange, if the phone can go as far as the second htc screen I thought it should be able to hard reset.
Also make sure usb cable is not plugged in while you try to hard reset. I just tried it and I don't get the white text on black screen when I have the cable in.
ן succeeded in doing a HR a couple of days ago, but I forget to write it down here.
The instructions are:
1. Take out the battery of 5 sec.
2. Put in the battery.
3. Press the two soft keys (above 1 and 3), and don't stop pressing.
4. Press the power button. The sec the green light blink, next to the HTC logo, you remove your finger from the power button (this is what no one told me).
5. You are asked to press the SEND button to confirm the HR.

are you sure nobody told you that ?
Sorry, let me rewrite myself:
I didn't fully understand this instruction, and if I didn't understand it good enough maybe other people would understand it as me. So I wrote a farther instruction.
Hi,
I have upgraded my MDA to NO EVIL ROM Windows mobile 6 version from this forum. Device was working great for couple of weeks. Now suddenly it stopped booting. When I do soft reset the
S.N.E ... Presents screen comes up.
Then HTC Wizard screen comes up
The Touch No Evil screen come up and then it stays at the same screen. It does not respond even to power button now.
The radio light (green light) blinks. The system does not respond to even hard reset.
I am tosed. Please help. Any response to recover from this situation is usefull.
Thanks in advance...
From the sounds of it, something you have installed or configured isn't allowing the phone to finish booting. You basically have 2 choices at this point... Hard Reset or Reflash the phone.
When you say hard reset doesn't work, are you sure you are doing a hard reset? Pull the battery out and let the phone rest for a minute or so. Press the power button a couple of times (yes with the battery out) to discharge any power in the device. Then put the battery back in, and press the top two buttons on either side of the phone (Comm and Record), and while holding those in press and release the power button. After a couple of seconds you should have a black screen with white text asking you about resetting the phone. Press the Send key (the green phone key that you use to answer the phone) and you will have completed the Hard Reset. If you get errors then you need to tell us what they are. If you never get the black screen with white writing then you aren't holding the buttons down correctly.
To reflash the phone, put it in bootloader (press and hold the recorder button while pushing in and releasing the reset button (or while turing the phone on)). Once you get the tri color screen, hook up the USB cord and it should say USB in the lower left. Now you can flash it (even though the phone won't connect to ActiveSync).
Good luck and hope that helps.
Able to reboot
Thanks for the advise. After several tries, was able to hard reset and started booting and working OK.
I have not done any soft reset after this event. What should I look for to correct, if any errors.?. do you recommend that I reflash the ROM?. The only software, I had installed was Microsoft Voice recorder. I have not installed the same after the reboot.
Thanks
ANother issue
Now after resetting, I see my phone getting into vibration mode all the time. Even if I set to ring mode, it will automatically go back to vibration mode after some time. Any idea on how to fix the same?.
Thanks
I have a Fido Razr HD (xt925) in Canada, running stock JB, not unlocked/rooted/anything, just the standard phone.
So I did a hard reset, on the suggestion of some to deal with the stuttering issues (which I found were quite bad). Now I have somewhat of a worse issue, it's stuck in an infinite loop of the android update logo (the green android with the spinning blue thing), then a black screen then the motorola logo. Occassionally it shows the android logo on it's bag with a red symbol with a ! in it (which I presume means it's corrupt). It's just repeating endlessly. After 20 minutes or so I tried a few things, plugging it into a PC, holding down the power/volume up/volume down buttons (which makes it go to a black screen while I'm holding them, but then it goes back to looping as soon as I release them), nothing works.
Any suggestions on what I can do or is this a return to the store because it's dead problem?
Just try Power + volume down for 10 seconds (simulates a battery pull.) Aside from that if you can get into stock recovery try wiping data and cache and then rebooting. If you can't, take it back.

Did you ever get it fixed? I had the same issue and eventually found a path to success. Let me know if not and I'll see if I can help!

I wouldn't mind if you posted your path to success in case I run into the same problem at some point. My bootloader hasn't been unlocked as of yet. I'm holding out for a ROM that's really, really worth a proper flashing but am scared as hell about the issues people run into.. factory reset loops and failures, bootloader unlock loops now apparently. With the exception of Busybox, which has an uninstaller, I have everything symlinked into my /system directory from a folder in /data and it works great and makes everything easy to keep track of but there's always the doubt of the stray app that put a file there when I granted permission and I didn't know about it.
For my Razr HD, I found that holding volume up and down while the android logo did it's spinning until it ended got me to the recovery menu.. However this hasn't really fixed anything, every time I restart the phone it goes through the same process again and does a hard reset all over again. After a few seconds in the recovery menu it restarts the phone again and goes through a normal load process, but the phone is hard reset every time. It doesn't matter what option I select in the boot menu, it does the same thing (so I don't think it's detecting what option I select at all).
So back to Fido it goes.
Scratch the above post, someone posted a fix on the Fido forums that works perfectly, see thematrix49's post here - fido.ca/t5/forums/forumtopicpage/board-id/Smartphones/thread-id/8805
Same issue. Took me a while to figure it out through an amalgamation of various online helps. I repeated it several times to make sure it worked before I posted.
I was experiencing android logo with blue loading bar... after a few seconds it would stop and then quickly show the android symbol on its back with a red exclamation point logo. Then it would shut off.
- To restart, press and hold both power and volume down for approximately 10 seconds, then let go of the power.
(Should show Motorola logo, then go to green Android logo again)
- At Android Logo, immediately press the middle of the volume up/down rocker.... this should engage both buttons at once.
(I was able to initiate this with one press in the middle of the volume rocker... other times it took me a few quick presses)
(If done properly, the screen should stop and some yellow text will appear on the left side of the android logo.. let it continue, it may fail)
It should say:
Formatting /data....
Formatting /cache....
Data wipe failied.
Performing BP Masterclear...
This will bring up a blue text menu at the top. Use volume up/down to navigate. Power to select.
Go down to "wipe data/factory reset" and select by hitting power. Go down to "yes" and select by hitting power.
It should properly format the /data and /cache after about a minute. Once it completes it will bring the blue text menu back up. Select "reboot system now" by hitting the power button.
Voila.

Took a while to get the volume press to work, it's just a press, not a press and hold. I just kept tapping it over and over until it worked.
Guys can you post your build.prop and default.prop files? it needed to get fido fw with jb.
THANK YOU.......My Motorola xt925 went "Boot Loop" after i reset the settings. Neither Telstra or Motorola could help. Excellent work Champdood.......

THANK YOU! You just saved me so much trouble and it was quite the worrisome situation I was in. Sidenote for anyone reading this after June 6, 2013. The link to that Fido forum may be dead but Champdood's instructions are the straight goods! :good:
Is there a permanent fix for this? I have to go through those fix steps every time I wipe my phone as it continues to go into loop...

Me too! I also noticed that the version that re-installed (the one time I did it) wasn't completely stable. It acted super weird adding an icon of one of my apps to the top left position of the screen one swipe over from the main/home screen every time I did a reboot.
At first I didn't even know what was happening only that my Google Now widget (which I usually keep in that space) was disappearing every time I rebooted and an icon was in the top left corner instead. Finally, I realized what was happening. Weirdest part of it all is that if the OS put an icon in there, on a reboot it would remain the same. But if I tried putting an icon there (or widget) on reboot it would be replaced.
Champdood saved my phone...
I would like to add that the same thing happened to me. I performed a factory reset from Settings > Privacy > Factory Reset and that just sent the phone into an endless loop of red logo > android logo > android logo on back > power off > repeat. Nice job Motorola.
On Motorola help pages it was all about Power button + Down and getting the white menu where you volume down to choose and volume up to select. That would successfully reset the phone but as soon as I powered down and up again: back in the infinite loop.
In desparation, I found this thread. Completely unique to hit the Power Up+Down simultaneous as a press not a hold when see the Android logo, indeed, brought up a blue screen, followed the instructions, successfully reset and so far, have been able to successfully power down and back up again. Will be bookmarking this page.
Thank you so much Champdood!
Alternative External Reset Instructions from Motorola themselves...
Hey, as mentioned Champdood's factory reset instructions work fine. Since reading this thread, I realized other's are having the same problem resetting using the menu (Settings > Privacy > Factory Reset), so I initiated a chat with Motorola about this. The person would not respond to my quizzing about the reason for this but did say it was called an Internal Reset and then named Champdood's method the External Reset. He also gave slightly different instructions for accessing the blue menu. I am reproducing both sets of instructions for you all here:
From Motorola Customer Service:
PERFORMING AN INTERNAL RESET:
From the home screen of your phone, touch Menu
Touch System settings
Scroll down and touch Privacy
Touch Factory Data Reset
Scroll down and check Erase internal storage if you would like to erase all the data on the phone internal storage such as applications, music, movies or photos.
Touch Reset Phone
PERFORMING AN EXTERNAL RESET:
WARNING: When using this feature; everything is deleted from the device.
NOTE: Reset will require a minimum battery level of 25%. If you are unable to perform a reset, please charge for 20-30 minutes and try reset again.
With the phone powered off, press the VOL UP + VOL DOWN KEY together + POWER KEY .
The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS
Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to SELECT
Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.
The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)
Press and hold the VOL DOWN key for 5-10 seconds
While still holding the VOL DOWN key tap and release the VOL UP key.
The device will display additional menu options (Text will appear in BLUE)
Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll to Wipe data / factory reset and the POWER Key to SELECT this option.
Use the VOL DOWN key again to select YES - delete all user data and press the POWER key to CONFIRM
Once the Formatting is complete, press the POWER key to confirm a REBOOT
The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence .
Motorola Razor Issue Fixed
Your Tip really helped me fix my Motorola Razor HD phone.
Created my account only to write a thanks and to comment for the same.
Thanks
Another thanks.
My wife's phone was doing this after a Settings menu factory reset, but the instructions champdood posted worked.
I had to re-re-format the data and cache partitions about four times, but after that it worked!
And somehow root was preserved; SuperSU was missing, but I had root over adb.
Cheers champdood.
Perfect fix

I've tried a number of time to hard reset my 8x. however, it doesn't seem to want to. It always comes back to the same phone with all he data still intact. I'm trying to clear all data so I can sell the phone. Neither the reset button in "about" or the process described above seems to work. It does all the right things even has the gears spinning. Then it comes back to the settings as it was. OS version is 8.0.10532.166
I have the same problem.
My phone wont be reset
