Fuze w/ EnergyROM "Slide to Unlock" no longer working

---

This is the craziest issue.. My slide to unlock is no longer working so therefore I can hardly use the phone except that I can take inbound calls. I have tried to factory reset using down volume, circle, reset. Please please please any other ideas are greatly appreciated! I am totally stuck with a useless phone and am having to use a BJ II for now! Uggh!

How come the hard reset didn't work? You need to hold down vol down and the dpad button until the tri-color screen appears.

The easiest thing would be to connect to your pc, then access the registry with ceregeditor. Switch HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Lockscreen\enabled:1 to 0 and soft reset. Then just unlock off the old screen.

Beats the heck out of me.. I hold the volume button down, and hold down the dpad and nothing. I have done it on reboot, I have done it from the lock screen and nothing. As for your registry idea I like it, its just too bad I cannot get the phone to connect to windows. I have tried it on 2 Windows 7computers now. Anymore ideas?

You need to figure out how to hard reset-you're clearly doing it wrong. Hold down vol-down and the d-pad button simultaneously. Keep holding them down. Then just soft reset. Don't hold down the soft reset-just tap it with the stylus. Wait until the hard reset screen appears, then let go of the other two buttons. There is really no way that it won't work, it's a bootloader operation and it doesn't matter what crap you have on your main memory.

I'm having the same issue. Just flashed the Energy Rom and now I can't unlock my phone. I'll try some of the suggested tips and let you know which worked.

I edited the registry with the above value and it solved my problem - Phone is no longer locked on bootup. Now my issue is that somehow my touchscreen is unresponsive (probably why I couldn't unlock my phone). I believe it's a hardware issue not a software one because it looks like liquid got under the screen somehow. Lame. Now I need to flash back to stock ROM and lock it so I can send it in under insurance.
