So some of you might recall that I got a fake IPhone with Windows Mobile and it was working great, but now it won't boot, it'll sit at the blue Windows Mobile screen and not advance from there. I've tried pulling the battery and it doesn't help. Obviously I'd try a hard reset but the only buttons I have are, the on/off switch, a soft reset button, a camera, some sort of back button and 2 volume buttons. I've tried a combination of those buttons and I do recall getting a blue screen a while ago but none of those combinations have worked this time.
Can anyone help?
EDIT: FIXED!!!!!! Camera+Volume Up gave me a blue screen, after that it booted! So I didn't get any sort of tri-coloured screen but the blue screen seem to have Hard Rest it maybe.
Umm, obviously this thread is sort of pointless now but if someone else has a Daxian X999 and has the same problem then this should help them.
Thanks
Seems like i'm the first to try your way of hard reset with this phone. Thanks a lot, I thought my phone is dead, and now it works perfect.
What is a "fake iphone with windows mobile"?
Chinese knockoff?
jep kinda "chinese knockoff"
but its a quite good phone, though...
i just wish it would be possible to upgrade the os to wm6.1
It works but you have to push the camera the up volume and the power key at the same time. you get a blue screen then the windows screen.
It does not work with mine. I still receive only the Windows Mobile screen.
I worked for me a few times and now it just sits at that blue windows mobile screen and then it goes to a white screen or a tri color screen. And it wont boot any further. Anybody got a idea how to get it back up. I called the place i got it from and they dont answer the phone and dont return calls. Tronicvasion is the place i got it from. Their customer service stinks. I feel like i am let hanging, kinda stinks spending 437 bux for a 1 month old phone that crapped out. But i am glad i still have my trusty Tmobile Wing tho.
have you figured out how to hard reset? it isnt working, and I cant bypass the unlock code..
Hard reset is done as explained in the 1st post here, by holding a combination of buttons and then the power button, or the reset. now you have 4 buttons plus the power button, hold the upper ones (one side camera, other side volume up) in and then press the power button. Keep the buttons pressed for a couple of seconds thou. If the phone is on, you can do the same but instead of power, press the reset.
One last thing i saw is if i hold the vol up and vol down then reset, it does not reset, but only stay on blank screen, this might be helpful for some one who's hard reset does not work.
I also suggest removing all sim and memory cards before a hard reset.
Even thou my phone is "branded" Chinese knock off I personally think it's great, and very stable
Happy to have a iphone lookalike running Micro$oft Windowzzzzzz
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!!

tap the soft reset button on top of the device using a thick stylus, you will get back the boot screen.

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.
I started haveing issue with the device last night, the phone app was locking the phone up, i tried restoring from my sprite, but it didnt work.
I got it to a point where it workied, but for some reason it lost all my contacts and email settings.
Well I said screw it, ill just hard reset and start from scratch, after a soft reset, it hung on the "Touch Pro" screen withthe red text at the bottom, then just sits there.
If I hard boot it does the same thing.
any ideas?
go into bootloader and then flash a new ROM there.
Hold Volume down and reset. You will go to bootloader. Plug in USB and flash from there. No need to sd flash.
it will not go past the touch pro screen, still sitting like that now. I cannot even turn it off, just reset it and get back to the same spot.
did you take out the battery for a time? but you do that on your own risk... for me that doesnt sound good ...

Yep, the best I have been able to get is plugging the phone in and getting it to constantly reset itself.
BRICKED!
New ohone in the mail, hope to have it tomorrow,
Now, do I use my old sprite back up from a week or so ago, or start from scratch?
BD
best is to begin new, but for me that would take 1,5 days cause i know nothinh about UC; thats why i restore my spb backup... with differen Romeos version i had never problems ... take the rom upgrade mode...
Greetz
Boris
Once I get to the bootloader screen, how do I flash the rom?
What is the latest stock rom and what is best link to download?
I finally got to the hard reset warning screen. It says press "send" to reset. Everywhere else (including manual) it says to press "volume up". Anway, I pressed and released "send" but nothing happens. It seems frozen on teh warning screen. Or does it take a few minutes to hard reset.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Did you tried the method with settings => system => "Speicher löschen" ( in german; "eraze memory" or something like that in english) => input 1234??

Boris
I sent mine back, it did nothing.
hard reset
i had to hard reset my htc touch pro as well because i unistalled a program and it wiped out like half the stock programs. this is what i did....
1). make sure you back everything up that you have on your phone.
2). shut off your phone
3). hold the volume down button and the enter button at the same time. (enter button is the big cirle center button)
4). while holding those two buttons in, press and hold the power button on the top until the popup appears on the screen. then just follow the steps and your phone should be like brand new again!!
Funny thing I did it the first time and it worked like a charm. But now i'm having trouble in doing it again?? any suggestions?? anyone???
So i bought a used LG GW620 online and when i got it, it still had its gmail account on it, which basically screwed me over. I was wondering if there was anyway to factory reset the phone if unable to do so in the settings menu

Unfortunately this site only deals with HTC phones, not LG. So I doubt that you will get much help here, sorry.
dang. since it's an android phone i thought this place would be a good place for help. any suggestions on where i could get help?
i called lg and rogers and none of them were any help
I will get mine in a couple days (running HTC Dream right now).
I guess if your goal is to just reset the gmail account, you can do so by reseting the google apps setting.
Go to Menu|Settings|Applications|Manage applications
Look for “Google Apps“. Select it.
Press “clear data“
next time you launch the market or gmail, it will prompt for your gmail account again.
I wish I could do that, but the phone won’t even let me go to home screen. Once I turn on the phone it asks for the gmail to get past security. The only access I have on the phone is Emergency Dial
On the EVE to do a FACTORY RESET or DATA RESET
enter in 3845#*620# in the dialer to get in to LG’s hidden menu.
DO THE FOLLOWING TO RESET LG GW620 TO FACTORY SETTINGS.
Hold down the VOLUME DOWN button, MENU button (the one on the keyboard), and CAMERA button for about 5-10 seconds, and a message will come up asking if you want to factory reset the phone.
Important : all data will be lost

GW620 Factory Reset
Hi, Just to let you all know that I been stuck with a home page that would not load properly but would not close either for the last 24 hours before finding this page! No calls, texts or anything!! I was starting to have withdrawal symptoms. LOL However as long as I got my phone on, & with a little manoeuvring, I managed to get all three of these buttons pressed together & my GW620 did indeed go to the Factory Reset message! Thank you Davy.d

Just to clarify it.. Phone should be ON when you use that key combination. Will work. Tested.
the combinations don't work...the only thing you can do is flashing another firmware it resets the phone
Hi all
My missus dropped her old s7+ edge years ago now and while the screen isnt cracked or anything whatever she did it just caught it at the wrong angle or something. The screen kinda works but its all messed up with very faint boot logos and stuff - I cant really see the android recovery comming up so cant select wipe/factory reset for example
Anyway its never been able to boot since. I was going to throw it out as not worth repairing. But Ive just connected to windows and the device is showing up in Device Manager
Just wondering if there was some kind of windows app to wipe the phone or something
Or am I best putting a hammer to it?
Thanks

If USB debugging wasn't enabled in the device's system settings and if you can't unlock the lock screen, you won't be able to use a PC to wipe the device.
If you can find a screenshot of what the stock recovery screen looks like on your specific model number of S7+ edge, you can use the screenshot to see the order of the options in your stock recovery and count how far down the list the factory reset option is. Boot into your stock recovery, you may not see it but it is probably still booting into it, then you can use the volume up/down button to go up or down the list. If factory reset is the second option, in your screenshot, press volume down once to select it then press the power button to initiate the wipe, if factory reset is the 3rd option, press volume down twice then press power, if it is 4th on the list, press volume down three times then press power, and so on. If you find the correct screenshot to guide you and if you use the buttons to correctly select the factory reset option this should wipe your device whether you can see what is going on or not.
Or
If you can boot into download mode, you can flash the newest version of your stock firmware for your specific model number of S7+ Edge, there should be two CSC files in your firmware, when you flash the firmware files, use the CSC file that does not have Home in its name, it will wipe the device when you flash it, if you use the Home CSC, it will not wipe the device.
