Lol, you didn't give much info. Are those screenshots all you see all the time? Did you plug it into your pc and get the image files that way?
If it is a screenshot then it isn't your screen messed up, cuz... you know, it isn't a picture of what is on the screen, but rather what should be on it.
Sooooo, if your phone is stock and that is all you see.... save files to pc and do a factory reset on the phone.
If you aren't on stock, wipe cache and dalvic cache and see. Or use a backup you made.
Edit: Just thought it might be hard to factory reset if that is all you see when phone is on
Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then press and hold the POWER button.
Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the POWER and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER button.

I've been trying this over and over and all I get is the initial bootup screen.
I hold down the Volume Down, Enter (center circle button) and then use the stylus to hold down the Reset button. I hold all 3 down at the same time.
Every time I do this the phone reboots as if I only pressed the reset button using the stylus.
I've tried holding all 3 down for over 5 seconds and I've also tried releasing the reset button first and continuing to hold down the Volume Down and Center/circle button (which is the way described here on xda) and all it does is do what I believe is a soft reset.
Shouldn't I be seeing a screen saying it's going to delete all data?
What am I doing wrong?
EDIT: I should mention, I just finished installing TAEL's new rom ([ROM][WWE][PRO|FUZE][WM6.5.5.5|23518][14JAN10] TAEL ROM v3.23518 • SENSE EDITION • ), which is a windows mobile 6.5 rom, but every time I try the hard reset it's showing windows mobile 6.1. Although it does show TAEL rom at the initial screen where it also shows the wrong windows mobile version.
hard reset fuze
You must keep holding the volume up and the circle button pressed AFTER you remove the stylus. this should take you to the RGB screen and then instructions on how to continue.
Good luck
Actually, that method didn;t work for me either.. but this one did...
Take out the battery... put the battery back in...
Press and hold the CENTER BUTTON and VOLUME DOWN... While still pressing them press and hold the POWER button. Then you will get a screen saying press volume up to hard reset...
I hope that works for you
That was so easy! Thanks.

Many people often let go of the buttons before it turns back on.
Note: You can release the reset button but still have to hold Vol Down and Center to get to the Bootloader.
Hi,
I turned off my phone yesterday and then when I tried to turn it on again it got stuck at the white screen that appears at first - it shows the HTC logo and the information about the software in red letters. I waited for a few minutes but nothing happened, then I reset it from the button under the back cover and still the same thing happened - it stuck at the same point. Any ideas how to fix it? Thanks so much in advance!
Sounds strange, i would try to do a hard reset, but you´ll lose all your data on the device if you do this!
Any other ideas?

To hard reset your phone which means to delete ALL personal data and settings and have the phone in factory default conditions as if you turned on the phone for the first time after purchasing, press the following buttons:
1. With the device turned off, press and hold the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons, then briefly press the POWER button.
2. Continue pressing the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons until you see this message on the screen:
"This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to the manufacturer default settings. Press VolUp to restore manufacturer defaults, or press other keys to cancel."
3. Release the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
4. Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
You can also use Clear Storage to reset your device back to factory default settings.
1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap All Settings.
2. On the System tab, tap Clear Storage.
3. Enter “1234” and then tap Yes.
If you have HSPL applied, you could be able to use MTTY method and upload new ROM.
Mtty tool recovery is nothing to mess with, it is a last resort. If you don't know what you are doing, you can easily kill your phone.
Do a hard reset, if that doesn't work, ( I anm assuming that since this is your first post, you do not have a custom rom ) find a copy of your rom and re flash it. But try severral hart resets first.
Thanks to all of you guys. The hard reset did the trick. I had my data backed up on the SD card so I will restore it from there. Thanks for the help.
I have tried hard resetting my phone, but I cant' get it to work. With the phone off, I hold the "volume down" key and press the power button. If i press the power and release quickly, nothing happens. If I hold it long enough for anything to happen, the phone just starts up normally. What am I doing wrong?
Also, If i reset the phone from the privacy menu, does it do the same thing as the above method?
no idea on the second question but try holding the volume up and down at the same time and then pressing the power button until it starts to boot. Continue holding down volume up and down and release the power button once it starts booting. Let us know if this did it for you.
I think you need to hold the volume control button (both Up & Down together) and the Power button until the Reboot screen appears.
Yea but none of the options will reset my phone...
My son was playing with the pattern lock and locked my phone, recovery using gmail username/pass don't work, so I need to hard reset it...
I've done the "delete all user data" and "delete cache data"
But it hasn't removed the lock... and I see my wallpaper is still the same...
Any other ideas... I am stuck with a $200 paper weight right now!!
Update: Fantastic!! Called Samsung, they said it's a bug and I need to send it in to be reflashed... hell no, back to the AT&T store I go... EXTREMELY dissapointed in AT&T / SAMSUNG.... It appears the standard Vibrant S can reset to factory settings!
Thanks,
Rich

yeah if i knew how with this black screen...im following the "odin" program now from the brick fix thread, we'll see if this works.
didn't work. anyone suggestions or is there a way i can do a factory reset with a blank screen? i tried the volume, camera and power button then factory reset and when it reboots...same problem.
Guys, i have done everything i could to try to fix this problem. But my phone always has popups saying "Lock screen common control has stopped unexpectedly. Would you like to send HTC a report blah blah" I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT'S CAUSING THIS. I even reset the phone. Also, when i press the lock button after the screen is off, there is no lock screen. It's like a plain wallpaper with the pull down notifs. So i have to pull down the notif, press settings and then click the BACK button just to get to the home screen. Along with this problem, when im in any app and i press HOME button, it's like my homescreen is always resetting. And then the pop-ups come back again. I really need your help guys. Hoping for your intelligent responses.
WHAT CAN I DO?
did you modify anything, root ? unlock etc ?
if not, you need to deep reset you phone from recovery mod.

No root. Now i cannot open my phone. The lock screen is absent, just wallpaper and notif bar. So icannot put my pattern password
Reset/format your phone using recovery mod.
if you cannot operate your phone, just put out the battery, & put it back in, start the phone.
Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then press and hold the POWER button.
Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the POWER and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER button.

Now the problem is...
I did reset it. And when it turned on, everything stopped working. Like ALL APPS. Popups were flooding. "HTC sense has stopped working". So i cannot do anything, so what i did was I restarted the phone. And voila! IT IS STUCK ON A BOOTSCREEN LOOP. Bootloader's option now is to only REBOOT. But rebooting only makes my phone go into bootscreen loop.
NOW I CANNOT FACTORY RESET/CLEAR STORAGE/ETC. I can only REBOOT. So my phone is practically useless now.
