Hard Reset + Soft Reset

[jamichy]

Hi All,

Got me a P3400i a few days ago, and tried the usual trick of hard reset, followed by soft reset to get a clean vanilla WM6 setup, without all the HTC Custom stuff, but the phone just goes back to the main screen with "Tap here to setup your Windows Mobile device"

Have any of you encountered this as well?
Is there any other sequence to be followed to get RID of all the HTC stuff in the extROM?

I think improper extROM setup may cause a bad battery drain

Sorry, my bad....

It seems I had to do the soft reset before the customisation started. Its working fine now

I have tried pressing the reset button time and again but of no use. Problem is, my messaging option just doesn't appear. I mean, it's there, but when clicked, doesn't activate. Please help. It's been about a month since I bought the HTC p3400i

If your phone is patched or if you are ready to patch it (thus loosing your warranty), you can always get a custom rom with smaller, empty extrom. Or if you like to have the original ROM, get the original WM 6 ROM from this forum and the tool HTC ROM Image Editor, remove extrom.nb from the ROM and inject the 4 MB, empty version of extrom into it. YOu can get it by requesting any of the chefs here, including me :)
