Alternative Hard Reset

---

Hello. First all sorry for my english.
Since a few days the buttons of my pda are crazy and don't work properly.
For example: The power button don't switch off the pda, but if I press and hold the button for a few seconds, switch off the ligth of the screen. This mean that the button isn´t broken, is it??? With the cam and record button it´s the same. If I press those buttons on windows 6 it works perfectly but i want to hard reset my pda and when reset and press whe i have to change "Clean Registry Hive " and "Format Storage" I can't change these options and cant make hard reset.
Then that is the question:
How can i make hard reset?? is there an alternative metod???? At Qtek S200 there is an application that clean the memory. It Exists for my blueangel??'
There is any application than do it???
Thanks. I´m waiting for answers.

u can use psshutXP it can do a hardreset with confirmation by holding the upper right corner of the application.

Hello.
Thanks for your answer.
I have tested your option, but it seems that the hard reset doesn´t work in wm6. It changes time and date, but don't clean memory, because i have the same programs than before.
I need another metod.
Thanks.

here u are..

just reset first your device, than after you see the stripped screen, press the record and camera button quickly before the the version appears (radio,etc).. then you will see the three options..
enable kitl should be no
clean registry hive should be yes
format storage should be yes

to choose just use the camera and record to change the options...

good luck
cheers

Hello evoluzionne.
I know that way to do hard reset, but my problem is that i can´t change the options:
enable kitl should be no
clean registry hive should be yes
format storage should be yes
In Windows Mobile 5 or 6 the camera and record buttons works properly, but when I reset the device and press the record and camera button quickly before the the version appears (radio,etc).. i can´t change the optios. It´s seems like the buttons don´t work. But i know that the buttons works, but the buttons don´t change the options. It´s very stranger.
In the power button is seemed. I can switch on the device, i can switch on/off the screen if I press and hold the button but i Can´t switch off the device. It´s incredible. My buttons are crazy. So i want to do downgraded to WM2003 ( so I need to do hard reset).
Do you know why are my buttons crazy????
Thank for your answer, and sorry for my english
Ciao

Hi,

Just wondering if you resolved the issue. I am having a similar problem on pda2k upgrading from wm5 to wm6. Buttons work except during boot menu so i cannot change options.

Appreciate your help.

Hi,
I have an exact problem as you. I've followed any info about hard reset, I've red wiki 100times, searching using Google but perform hard reset or enter to bootloader mode on my BA is IMPOSSIBLE!

In November I've upgraded to WM6, ROM from pdaviet, OS 5.2.2000 (Build 20000.1.0.0.PV.HAT)
MDA is working without problems, I can use phone, wifi, camera, record, BT, ActiveSync 4.5.
Right now I want to upgrade to new ROM from pdaviet but I stuck with a step: enter to bootloader mode
I've tried psShupXP software, which is capable do a hard reset. Still no luck, after software hard reset my BA comes on with all files installed...
Unfortunatelly mtty doens't works too, I can't see any WCEUSBSH001 port...

I'm not alone, but the bad news is that I don't find any solution

Thanks for any hint

R.V.

I have the same problem as you do, except I can enter BootLoader and Hardreser, but I can't turn off my device with power button, and if I hold it for long it shuts the backlight.

If anyone had any sucess solving this please share how...

Thank you.

I am following the same exact steps...flashed rom for the 5th time...hard reset is not working. The problem...'Mail' button (the hardware key) does not respond. I can change the options from No to Yes. But after pressing the 'mail' button nothing happens. Please let me know if there is another way to clear the registry hives and format the storage!!!

have you guys tried the MTTY alternative? i think it's somewhere here in the forum.
