My HTC Touch is BRICKED! - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I'm so f***** angry now!
My Touch just found out, that it would be cool if it killed it self. I can't turn it on longer. i can't hard-reset it. i can't send it to service, since i got the Blue Touch ROM installed. Am i f***** or what?
if not, explane me if or how i can fix it.
PS. I'm a Mac user, so... yeah.. that might do things harder for me...

can you go in bootloader mode ?

Thanx! But... The Touch did feel for living a little while longer now. It startet it self(!) and the phone is good as new now... I don't belive in Santa Claus anymore, but i think i belive in him now..!

Dead Wizard won't hard reset

My brand new HTC Wizard has died and I can't re-flash it (as activesync won't detect it) and the hard reset function doesn't work (with hardware buttons). Anyone know of an other way to hard reset? It is rather urgent and I'd rather not have to send it back.
O2 XDA Mini-S branded, starts up radio screen but then goes completely white. LEDs still seem to flash, it won't connect to my PC and it won't respond to anything
EDIT: After posting this the phone finally decided to play nice... Why is it as soon as you look for help it decides to work?
PS. I had to hold com manager, voice record, power AND reset. Not a comfortable possition at all.

The Hard Reset function is supposed to be hard to press, to keep it from happening in a pocket or something. I guess that's a good thing considering how may buttons on my phone get pushed when I sit down with it in the provided leather case ^_^

Not so hard that you require finger contortionists or two people to get it to work. For a start you have to press the soft reset button which is inside the device. It is impossible to hard reset this model by accident, or my Alpine for that matter.

Yeah, got everything back up and running in the end. Just a pain to figure this thing out.

Loud Ringer Volume

I already asked this in one post, but no one answered, hoping someone has more info.
For some reason once I install either mUn or LSVW's WM6 ROM's my ringer volume is jacked through the roof! I have my ringer all the way down and it's still very loud. When I turn it up it does indeed go louder, but I really don't need it any louder. Is there some low ringer fix that they might be applying to their ROM? Does anyone know where I can go to fix this problem and turn it down a bit? I don't need my whole office hearing my phone ring all the time.
Seriously, no one else has this problem with either of those ROM's? Maybe my Trin is jacked huh?
I found about this right now...
Mun, please post a cab or two
i agree.. my volume is waaay louder than before ha.. funny cause i think in the WM5 aku3.5 ROM i last flashed i noticed my volume went softer.. now its opposite.. it's not bugging me too much, but i've not received any responses to any queries i made about what makes the volume change either..

Holy crap! That appears to have severly messed up my device. I get the boot screen, then my screen just goes white. Nothing ever loads up, the green light blinks like there is service, but I cannot do anything.
EDIT: I'm reflashing and I will try to install again on a fresh ROM.

Hmm...same thing on a fresh reflash. I'm using your rom mUn (which is awesome btw) and for some reason it kills my device after the boot screen.
it doesn`t mun...
Crashed mine too...
Sorry...
But i tryed it on my wm6.SE rom and it worked for me...
I'll rebuild cab
Urgent!
How the hell to reflash??
When I connect my PDA to PC ruu updater says no device found??
schwags and the rest, how can I reflash my device?
I just pulled my battery, then hold down the camera button while you turn on the device. This should get you to the tri-color screen, then run the update and it should work.
U don't need to reflash
Hold 2 softkeys at the same time and click reset
So you will see message on grey screen. Press green button for Hard Reset and Ok for boot

What if you pull the battery, and then hold the camera button down while you start it back up again? That doesn't get you to the boot loader? it worked for me.
WHILE
That was pretty much only info I needed!
Reflashing now...
THANKS!

No more vibration after falling down

Some day ago my trinity accidentally fell down and the vibration hasn't worked anymore...
When I shake it I hear like a click clack noise like there something loose inside.
Maybe something it's broken and I can fix it, can you help me? Where is located the solenoid of vibration? Do you have pics?
Thank you.
You need to disassemble Trinity! Vibration solenoid is near to external speaker. There is a screw which it locks. This screw has got out. It is necessary to return the screw on a place.
(sorry for my english, but this is online translator)
Thank you, I'll try and let you know

Run bootloader mode (hold Power button and Camera and softreset with stylus) Try to upgrade with official WM5 rom.

I have no Idea, but you are posting in the treo pro section in case you didn't know. Anyways hard reset is all i have to say. You might want to google what ever your trying to fix. or goto treocentral.com they should have a forum for your device. Click the link and it will take you to the 680 forums.

I have the same problem that my Treo 680 cannot boot, the booting screen sticks. Did you mean I should press and hold both the volume key while inserting battery? But it doesn't work at all. Any detailed solution is appreciated!

HELP! Phone goes completly black!

Hey guys,
after installing this skin //forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311557 my phone restarts, and turns completly black before entering the entery code...!!!
what the.....!#$????
please help, i can't do everting now....
nobody??
any suggestions to reboot??.. hard reboot (pres both volume keys and hit the power button) doesnt work because i can't enter my pincode.
(sorry for my english)
You shouldn't need your pin code to hard reset (I don't think).
Turn the phone off (pull the battery out if you have to), then hold down both volume buttons and just press the power button for a second. Keep hold of both power buttons.
yeah, hardreset MUST work.
