Question Hard reset required?

In one of my more thoughtless moments I have installed the emoze client on my S620. Now the phone locks up after every restart. Is there any way I can stop that software from starting or do I have to do a hard reset!

I guess you never found an answer here? I have the exact same problem. Old versions of emoze worked fine... new one, killed my dash.

I haven't tried it, but from other posts I've gathered that you can remove the SIM card, start the phone, do NOT clear the error at boot, connect USB to a PC and launch ActiveSync, then remove the offending program from \Windows\StartUp. This avoid the hard reset.

I'm not really familiar with this app, but just out of curiosity, did you install this on your micro-SD card? if you did, then remove the sd card and then reboot. This will make the startup link "fizzle out" since it's pointing to media located on a piece of hardware that is not installed. This should allow you to then re-insert the micro-SD card (after a couple of minutes) and then go through the settings-->>remove programs ...portion

Thanks for the feedback.
I cant remember where I installed the offending software.
I have done a hard reset since the original post and all is working fine, but I will snaffle those ideas away for future reference - should it ever happen again.
I love this forum!
