Yes I know it sounds strange.

The only thing I can think of that caused this problem was receipt of an MMS.

When I click the Windows Icon all I can see is: "Today, TimeWizard, calupd, coldinit, and Programs" The middle three don't have icons. When I tap Programs all I can see is 'My E-mail' (a Tmobile app)

None of my hardware buttons launch the app they are supposed to however my today screen is showing what it is supposed to oddly enough

The phone portion works calls and receives

I plugged it into my computer and for some reason Windows Mobile Device Center doesn't do anything but I can navigate through the phones folders just fine. That is when I noticed the 'Windows' folder is missing.

I have tried all the bootloader flashing of the Wizard Love rom (for some reason it shows up in Italian) but it doesn't detect my device (done this on XP and Vista)

Activesync on XP detects the phone but can't connect to it.

I would try the shell loader but it's instructions require an activesync connection.

Is there anything that will help? Maybe a VERY vanilla rom that will load from with the bootloader?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated. My only other phone is a T68i and I can't find the charger :(

Why don't try to hard reset your phone by punching the reset hole while holding CommManager and VoiceCommand?

Maybe I'm reading your instructions wrong but that isn't working.

I am pressing the two buttons on TOP LEFT SIDE and TOP RIGHT SIDE while pressing a pen into the reset hole.

The device resets but everything comes up the same.

Is there a way to do a full complete hard reset?

Okay! I found a second way to do a hard reset in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1015602&postcount=4

Turn the device off completely then hold both the Voice Command and Comm Manager buttons and press the Power On button. Black screen with white text appears and asks if you're sure, pressed send. Formatted!

yay...now everything is lost but it works again :( :) maybe I'll try a WM6 rom now!
