I have a problem with my device after installing Sprite Terminator, it has set a device password and i cannot figure out what it is.

Is it possible to re-flash the original rom to the phone, it is an OEM kaiser and has never been CID unlocked ?

I was wondering about flashing the stock rom via SD card or i can browse the contents of the phone and send files to it etc via activesync, i just can't run anything on the phone itself as stuck on the password screen.

I seem to be able to get to the bootloader screen and it says USB down the bottom

Hope someone can give me some advice

Thanks

Install HardSPL and you will be able to flash via SD card, or use CID unlocking program.

have you tried doing a hard reset?

The sprite software stops a hard reset so that isn't an option.

It's currently running the stock HTC rom as i have not flashed it at all,

Can i just do a simple reflash of the stock rom or do i need to go the HardSPL route. i was under the impression that i could just flash an original rom over the top as long as it's the same carrier etc without and cid unlock or hardspl, I cannot run anything directly on the phone as it's stuck at a password screen but activesync connects fine

boot it in a tri colour screen
hold two soft buttons(line next to green and red button) and stick in the stylus at the same time
release the stylus hold the buttons
when you see the confirmation screen release buttons and confirm the Hard reset.

that should work, I dont see how can a program disable a hard reset when the OS is not booted up.

good luck

or just reflash the same rom.....
just thought that Hard reset idea would be easier.

just out of curiosity try doing the Hard reset as I said, before you reload the Rom, I am also interested in that Sprite software and would love to know if it is Hard reset disabled

I can boot into the tri colour screen, i hold the two soft buttons down push the soft reset and the phone starts, Smart mobility, animated HTC Logo, Windows Mobile 6 splash creen then straight to the enter device password screen nothing else,

Sprite Terminator says it disables the hard reset option so i think reflashing is my only option.

are you holding two buttons while you sticking the stylus in?
you have to hold them and at the same time do the soft reset.....

I dont see how the software can alter the bootloader.... I could be missing something :)

alternatively just run the rom update for your CID and you should be fine

I was holding down the 2 soft buttons and the device just boots back to the device lock screen.

The software does stop a hard reset somehow and you can remotely lock your phone if it gets stolen by sending an SMS to it.
