We can hard reset the device just by pressing and holding both the " -" keys right above the answer and end keys and pressing the power button . It will run the ghost image and recover the device ...
note :
1) make sure your battery is more than 50 % charged .
2)you must do a power cycle in your device ( take out the battery , then press and hold the power button ) before you do a hard reset ...
My device is back to normal...

Your battery is finished. I started getting that when my charger got messed up and starts taking power out of the battery instead of putting it in. Take out the battery,put it back in, then plug it to your PC and leave it there for a while.

If you have not completed 14 days after buying the device, just take it to HTC service center sying that your device is not booting. At least in my case, those guys couldn't figure out what is the cause (see how efficient they are ;) ) and I got a replacement ! :)
