Screen Fading to White, Software Related

[icraveicecream]

Hey guys, I have sat here looking at all the white fading, well I have a new one... that I know is software related.

Steps for me to cause it...
Flashed CRC full the other day, newest version.
Added some files from his update..
Added Palm Messaging on my own... forgetting I hate that program.
Got to work today, decided to remove Palm Messaging... errored out while trying..
Decided... must be running, need to kill processes.. No process found and application wasn't running...
Tried to remove again... failed.. got mad and tried to remove many times over... fail fail fail.
Decided to do a soft reset...
Shows the CRC loading screens... goes to show the animation and fades to white...

After 10 seconds or so... the holding the comm button causes the phone to go into vibrate.. so I know something is running.

Any Ideas?

Active Sync tries to connect, windows recognizes something connected.. so does linux. Nothing succeeds so far, assuming active sync is not running on the device... meaning win mobile probably isn't able to boot.

Ok.. I have the vibrate on phone key press... and that works... even though it's a white screen... I'm assuming something to do with .net is screwed up.

Windows is definitely running, just shut off windows mobile via holding the power and hitting yes... even though i can't see anything...
But I am still convinced this is a software issue, because other than holding my phone and playing with it... I can't imagine that it was caused from hardware.

Gone into bootloader mode (power + ok + reset)... and it allows me to flash from there. Flashing OS 5.2.20748 (Build 20748.1.4.0 PV DVH) Black(Full) NoBS V22... see what happens.. 50%!

Flashing new Rom worked just fine, white screen is fixed...

Obviously a software issue.. I would only have to assume that .net was corrupted by palm messenger. Hope anyone else out there finds this information useful.

You could've just HRed the Hermes too... That would've reset back to "factory"... Just like re-installing a rom...

Cheers...:D
