Hi,

Yesterday, I had to do one of those ubiquitous soft resets we always have to do with Windows Mobile... but instead of getting a soft reset, my trinity totally hard reset itself! (and no, I didn't touch any buttons while pressing the stick in there)

I profited from the occasion of losing some of my data (backup was a couple of weeks ago) to upgrade the ROM. That all went fine until yesterday evening, when I did a soft reset with the stick and got a hard reset AGAIN!

Does anyone know where this can come from? How to fix this annoying problem?!

Thanks!

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

I had the same exact problem with certain Roms...
Just don't know if it can be hardware problem, but try using the original HTC rom for a while to make sure everything's OK.

Best regards

Hi

My trinityis sufferng from the same problem, and it's getting progressively worse. From it originally happening once every few weeks, I can now re-flash and it will hard reset as soon as a day later (usually once i've re-installed everything...)

I've tried lots of different and reportedly stable ROMs, the latest being FlixNOver and an excellent German WWE Manilla 2D one floating around whos name i forget.

I am now assuming my trinity is dying, with a hardware related issue.

What is puzzling is that information previously written to the phone often remains and is acessible after then hard-reset. If this was Windows XP I'd suggest the Hard Drive was was corrupting and Windows was losing it's profile.

Anyone any ideas?
