i have a clients p4000 that was showing 0mb free storage memory. he tried adding some contacts and appointments via ppcpimbackup. after trying to reset the phone it now does not load past the telus startup screen, nothing!! there are many important business #'s that we need to recover.

the only thing i could think of is forcing it into boot loader, unlocking it with olipro, and installing a new radio in hopes that for somereason it will load up past this telus startup screen.

before you start in with any sarcastic comments on this having nothing to do with this or that, keep in mind that i have no idea of what will actually work and just need some good advice on what to try that may actually work

thankyou in advance for any pointers

Sadly I can only say he might end up in a situation where he can only chalk it up and rebuild it all from scratch. I don't know how you can boot it up in that state.

Why did he let it get to 0MB Free? No storage card?

+1 on this.....no matter what remedy you come up with to get the OS working....I do not think you are going to recover them....recommendation though tell him to always store PIM on the storage card from now on...

damn, figured it was a lost cause, but it can't hurt hoping for a surprise solution.
