[Touch Pro2 CDMA] bipolarmadman:
I checked over there, but if you're saying it's there then it's obvious I need to check again. Also seeing as you've suggested this I'm guessing:

Isn't as big of an issue as I thought it was? And if it isn't...how do I get around this?

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by mfr (I'll hit up google after this) but I can tell you only what I know. My phone worked fine for 3 days. Once I got it set up like I wanted and was ready to start installing other crap I did so, I started with MSN.

Yup got the hard reset in there, it just didnt do anything. However, one thing I did not was that there were numerous postings with different ways to hard reset the device. The only one I could get to do anything at all was pressing volumn down + reset while the phone was off but it stayed at the tri color screen without much else going on...so I coulda just done the wrong one or did it wrong all together. If I did please point me in the right direction.

Like I said before I can't say if it was screwed from the time I first turned it on as this is my first smartphone and first experience with tf3d (I've had many pda's though) but it had been soft reset multiple times prior, along with a couple of hard resets, and had no issue bouncing back from those. Reset after MSN install...hosed. Not that I'm saying your wrong, you guys are the experts here, but from what I've experienced regardless of what caused it msn will certainly not be going on my next smart phone. I'll opt for one of the all in one apps like I was going to before I decided to go with a name I trusted.

Got no choice about this. The only issue I have with this is the fact that they can't tell me when I'll get my new phone. Plus I have only 1 of 2 choices:

1. Mail my phone back and get a refurbished one in return....uhm...no

2. Take my phone back to the verizon store I got it at, get my refund, and hope to god that I can get another one the next time they get it in stock.

I'm not trying to ***** and complain...just trying to find a way to fix it without a)paying 300 for a refurbished phone, or b)going an unknown amount of time without my phone.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mjcole2003:
does your start menu drop down when you hit it? When i go to settings/today/items and uncheck the TouchFLO 3d my screen is just as you describe. Its pure black with the top bar available. Did you check to see if the touchflo 3d is turned on?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] spunks74:
You went into boot loader mode. I did a hard reset on my sprint version but I dont remember how technical support told me. I think it was power off the phone. push and hold 'up' volume key, then hit and hold the reset switch till the phone boots. This will start off looking like a normal soft reset, but it will take much longer, your phone will be erased of all info you put in and it will do an instalation of software and reboot right before touchflo starts . I dont think you will ever get a tri-color screen (i could be wrong), which is what you get when the phone is expecting a rom flash from a computer. the whole process probably takes like five minutes, and theres a spot right after it starts it looks like your phone is doing nothing (Leave it be!). I've been messing with a lot of phones recently, and i dont remember if you got to hold the up key and reset button till you get a hard reset warning or not. (it might tell you all your data will be erased, and whether or not to continue)

edit:

just did a quick google and confirmed it on my sprint touch pro2. push and hold 'send' and 'end' key. Using your teeth, push and hold the 'reset' button with the stylus. finaly, push the power button. (all three need to be pressed down when you hit the power). the tri color screen flashes, then a white screen warns of the reset and says push 'up' volume key to continue, any other key to cancel. Hope this helps.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] SecretAgentMan:
When you did the hard reset, did you get a warning that all data was going to be erased and where you asked to enter something to confirm? If you didn't, then you have not done a hard reset.

I had to try several times to get mine to hard reset. Even though I hit the proper keys, the phone would just soft reset, not hard reset. I can see how you can easily be fooled thinking you did a hard reset if you don't know what to look for.

I think there are different key presses for Verizon vs Sprint. Make sure you're using the right one.

BTW, "mfr" = manufacturer . . . i.e. HTC
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DragonNote:
Confirmed. The Verizon HTC TP2 Hard Reset is the same as T-Mobile but is different from Sprint.

With POWER OFF, hold Volume Down while pressing SEND (green) and END (red). It takes about 4 seconds to take. WARNING: THIS IS A HARD RESET, BACK UP YOUR CONTACT LISTS AND DATA. EVERYTHING BUT YOUR OEM INSTALL WILL BE WIPED.

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] bipolarmadman:
I actually ended up calling HTC about 6hrs ago (5 pm est) and they did confirm what i had already started thinking. Verizon tech support has no idea what the hell they are talking about when it comes to this phone.

@spunks74 you're absolutely right, this is just what htc said and is where I finally figured out....verizon needs to get this phone in their techs hands instead of giving them pictures and text.

@DragonNote this is exactly what htc told me after they told me verizon didnt know how to hard reset. thanks for the info, even if i called htc before checking here. thank god im obsessive about backups or I would have been screwed because once this happened....nope no way to do anything at all. Also, for other forum members that may not know, the link you provided (for t-mobile) is completely different than the link for the hard reset for verizon:

http://www.htc.com/us/faqs.aspx?p_id=294&cat=0&id=110490&f=t

which is why i was at such a loss during this issue...I couldn't get that far lol. I read sooo many different ways to hard reset the phone but none worked. obvviously i never checked to seei f the different providers would hard reset different ways. i just assumed they would all reset the same way (i guess this time assuming only made an ass out of me) so i found myself looking at ways to reset the touch pro 2 and ways to reset the rhocium, which is where all the different variations can be found.

@mjcole2003 Without touch flo i recognize the gui right away, and the first time it happened i did think i had just jacked up the flashy gui, but while it was the bare winmo gui there was nothing I could do. any screen touch, any keypress all ended with the same outcome I'd touch/press and the device would only *beep*
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mjcole2003:
copy that. my condolences for your loss. I would have them replace it immediately. Too much BS for a new ppc. Only makes you wonder what else is wrong with it.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] isdnmatt:
Why don't you do a hard reset via Clear Storage in settings? This surely seems like something that can be fixed with a hard reset.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Pegasus"143":
Because as the OP said he cant do anything inside the GUI. IE hard reset is only option.

[G1 General] NutsyUK:
Hi sorry if its already been coverd [and im sure it has] I couldnt find a thread covering it.

Does anyone know if XDA Dev has a unlock service for the G1? I know they do for the winmob phones but what about this one?

I have a friend whos brought a G1 off ebay but its locked. And Tmobile wont give him an unlock code for it.

If you can point me in the right direction so i can help him out.

If Xda Dev doesnt have one does anyone know a trustworthy place that does?

Thanks

Nutsy
[G1 General] X-i-phoner:
There is a site on ebay that does it for something like 12 bucks. With paypal its trust worthy.
[G1 General] NutsyUK:
I could do with a little more info than just... Theres a site on ebay.

But isnt there one here? Like there is for most of the HTC winmob phones?
[G1 General] supremeteam256:
He gave you a clear cut answer. Go to ebay and type something like "unlock G1". Or google for some unlock services. There is no generator or anything of that nature out yet.
[G1 General] NutsyUK:
And i wouldnt trust an Ebay shop with that. Just like i wouldnt trust many of the hundreds of so called unlocking sites youll find on google.

I was hoping to find a very trusted shop that everyone here knows works. Or a serivce provided by XDA Dev just like there is in the diamond and touch pro forums...
[G1 General] X-i-phoner:
Unlocking a phone runs off a simple but expensive algorithmic code per your imei number. You have 5 or 6 chances to unlock before the phone locks for good. If someones rating on ebay is a 99% with many transactions sold they can be trusted. It is quick and inexpensive. If they cant get your code you dont get charged abd they tell you why they could not obtain the code. LOTS OF PEOPLE DO IT EVERY DAY.
[G1 General] supremeteam256:
Then it looks like your phone ain't gettin unlocked.
[G1 General] NutsyUK:
Its not my phone its a friends. And im tryign to help him so i dont want to tel him to go to Ebay and end up getting duff codes.

All im asking for is a service that everyone here knows and trusts. [ok not everyone but teh majority]

Like for instance I would trust the guys who have the sticky in the touchpro forums for there unlockign service.

I really did exspect there to be a simuler thing here for the g1.
[G1 General] X-i-phoner:
I worked for the largest cell phone repair center in Idaho. If it was an old Nokia or Moto we had a machine to unlock if it was anything else this is what we did.

1. Take customers phone in back.

2. Get on ebay and find the cheapest and most reliable vendor.

3. Double the cost of the code and tell customer.

4. Write repair ticket and inform the cust we will have it unlocked in 24 hour.

5. Order code

6. Recieve code from ebay vendor and unlock the phone.

7. Charge the customer anywhere from 25-75 bucks.

8. Laugh my @$$ off after the customer left!

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Persuader X:
I was boring searching about X1 and 6.5, and I find this message published yesterday on facebook, about a guy that talks about a 6.5 ROM that XDA has got. I suppose that is talking about the Itje ROM. But the thing that I saw amazing is that he said he called Sony Ericsson and they him to them that it will be an update after X2 were released. Don't you understand this reading the message? I attach the link to the message to this post:

http://es-la.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=39963827922&topic=11173

Best regards
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sfkn2:
Complete bs, IMO.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ganondolf:
there is no update. the build he is talking about is the one itje has but SE has said that a 6.5 build will never be released. the build was only for testing purposes.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spikegotti:
i think we should wait and see, up to time there is no official info stating that the x1 will never or it will get 6.5, even tho on their blog they stated

We picked up on a couple of rumours from yesterday that an official X1 Windows Mobile 6.5 rom had surfaced on XDA developers. Just wanted to be clear that this isn’t true.

There is no official X1 6.5 rom and it’s not in the X1’s product roadmap. There are hackers out there who can do pretty much anything, but unless you’re getting it from the SE update service it isn’t an official Sony Ericsson product.

so lets wait and see if they will or will not
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ganondolf:
what do u mean there is no official info??????

SE has officially said there will be no 6.5 update for x1.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jasand:
yeah im pretty sure thats what i read too...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spikegotti:
where is this info? and where is the info that the 6.5 kernel was used for testing only?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ganondolf:
Official xperia website forum

link:

http://xperiancers.com/2009/09/10/x1-upgrade-not-in-the-roadmap/

all companies test stuff with no intentions of releasing it. so the build was a test build or itje lied about the build (with i refuse to believe).
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mopral:
I think itje has a test build but I also think that this test build was made on X1 with intention of knowing If X2 will be able to run WM6.5 with the same hardware as X1 or if it is needed to bring some more powerfull hardware into X2...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spikegotti:
that article does not say there will not be or there will be, that is a perfect structure using the best english language possible, to keep us from believing there will be or there wont be, because its too early to say if they will or wont update simply because the x2 is on the horizon, its not smart for SE to say they will update the x1 or they wont...

its called marketing, regardless what anyone says, that article is not saying that there wont or will... was the R3A updates on the roadmap? what happened to the goodies of R3A? weren't they in the roadmap for R3A? did we get them?

only time will tell if we will get the update or not, by december i should have one of the new HTC devices anyway :)

itje did leak stuff before, and we never got em, i believe roadmaps do change
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ganondolf:
at least 1 of the firmware update was on the roadmap, the second came when they did not sort out all the bugs in the r2 update.

u will find its in plain english. its not in the x1 roadmap and everyone knows that when the x2 is released SE will stop production of the x1 and stop updating the firmware.

I will make it easy for u to understand. if u want 6.5, SE wants u to buy an x2
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonus:
I don't think the Sony blog could have been any more clear about there not being an official 6.5 release.

First they say that itje's ROM is not an official release (which most likely means that it is an internal testing ROM that was leaked

Then they say that there is no official 6.5 ROM out there.

And then they say that they have no plans to make an official 6.5 ROM.

It seems very clear to me can they change their minds? Possible, but very unlikely.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Draqula:
Since I upgraded to Windows 7, I have been having a problem syncing my X1 with Windows Mobile Device Center over BT.

Everything works ok over USB first (Full sync), then I disconnect the cable.

Make BT "discoverable" on both computer and phone.

Open ActiveSync on the phone and choose "Connect via BT"

It says no device available and gives the option to pair with PC.

I do the pairing, both devices say pairing OK.

Then I choose "Connect via BT" again on the phone

The phone displays the usual:

1) Opening port

2) Connecting

3) Authenticated

In the end "Connected" is displayed as status.

With Win XP and ActiveSync 4.5 client that always meant - everything is OK, not so with Win 7.

On the PC:

Windows Mobile Device Center starts displaying "Connecting" (as soon as I press "Connect via Bluetooth" on the phone) and stays like that.

If I open "Bluetooth Devices" in my computer's BT settings and check the properties of "X1" I see that "Activesync" profile is checked.

What else can I do?

Additional info:

PC - Dell E6400 Win7 64bit

X1 ROM Agent_47 Valkyries 3.8.60TR

EDIT:

I got it working:

1) Deleted the relationship in ActiveSync (on X1) and WMDC (on the PC)

2) Deleted pairings form both devices in BT settings

3) Made the USB connection, got it syncing

4) Started the pairing in Activesync on the X1

5) Did not start the actual sync over BT instead restarted both PC and X1

6) After restart started Activesync on X1, it connected to PC and started syncing at last!

I'm still not sure that it will work tomorrow...

EDIT2:

Didn't even work after 5 minutes :(

Just disconnected and when trying to connect again... not working.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apolas:
no problem for me on win 7

actually, when I had a problem with syncing over BT on Vista, I moved to Windows 7 :)

You can try to completely remove Sync Center and WMDC or whatever could be removed, download installations from microsoft and try to reinstall. Don't forget to use windows update after reinstall. And remove all settings first, just for sure. Hope this will help you. It helped to me when my X1 suddenly stopped to syncing over BT on Vista.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Draqula:
Could you please post how long it takes on your system from:

Pressing "Connect via Bluetooth" on X1

to

"Connected" displayed in Windows Mobile Device Center?

That is if you start WMDC first and then start connection from X1.

On my system it sometimes takes a very long time and sometimes it's instant. Could be a problem with BT drivers on my Dell.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apolas:
I've tried 4 times. 3 times it was exactly 30 seconds with unlocking X1, once it was even faster.

As for now it has been able to get connected most of the time.

But still is strange, with Win XP Activesync 4.5, when X1 said "Connected" after all the "opening port" etc messages - it really was connected at both ends, now I don't know what the X1 thinks it's "connected" with, cause the PC is still "Connecting"...
