Big chance your phone is a fake.. I'm sorry man..
Perhaps if you posted some pictures of your device (also the backside without the cover, and one without the battery) some might be able to help you figure out what's going on.

Hi
All what you mentioned : No hard reset, No bootloader, No Data with mtty mean one thing this is a chinese clone of ELF and you will find no solution here

Prophet has Security Code, Can I Hard Reset? Please help thanks

Hello All,
I have just got another M600 (Prophet) for my brother as I am so please with my first one. I have got this phone second hand and the owner has put in a secruity code/pin after the boot screen when in windows. I would obviously want to get rid of that, how could I do that? I have tried hard reset (Photo + Communication button and rest button), it didn't work. I would really want your help.
Thanks,
Angus
mhm...
thats kind of strage, because normaly the passwort should be deleted after a hard-reset...
Maybe you should try to flash it

HTC Home installation freeze xperia

Hello Guys,
I had installed HTC home plugin on my Xperia and now its hung or unresponsive. I can see the start, call and Menu on the screen but touching that does not do anything .
Please help me out.
Has anyone seen this before ?
Regards,
which HTC Home are you using ?
i have PJC HTC Home installed and it's working perfectly. once i used the hack for the weather it was fine ...
Thanks for your reply mrdo,
I am using http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-htc-home-plugin-v2-1.html
I need to just uninstall this software but the phone is not responding..
please suggest a way to reset.. the other trouble is its not recognized as a device now using USB so I could not use mtty n other things..
is there any other way ??
thanks
thats not for VGA devices, it's for QVGA which is why it's not working.
Can you acess the X1 from through activesync on your PC?
If so then you can uninstall it from there (add/remove programs)
if not then I'm afraid you'll have to hard reset, and learn a valuable lesson, make sure you know what it is you're installing..
Hard reset, is take the back cover off and stick the sytlus in the small hole in the side next to the battery, while holding down the two silver buttons on the front.
Hello fards,
Thanks very much for the help..
Unfortunately I learnt the lesson the hard way
I tried hard reset as you suggested but it did not make any difference
what else can be done.. ?? any suggestion is most welcome.. I can try doing mtty reset but some how I could not go to boot loader mode.. how to go into bootloader mode ?
Please help..
Regards

If you've done it right it must have made a difference as this wipes the devices memory. If you can't do this then don't even start messing about with mtty
if you see the SE logo, then you haven't done it right.
hold the two silver hardware keys on the front of the x1 down after you've reset. Keep pressing them down till you see some text that tells you to press R
If you don't see this screen keep trying (reset+press the keys) till you do.
Thanks fards,
you are a lifesaver !! that seems to have worked and now I can use my phone ..
Thanks a ton once again !!

Hi
Sorry to hear that, but as far as I know, you cannot flash a rom on a chinese elf clone, but it's also possible it's a chinese elf not a clone. Have you read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398965&highlight=chinese+elf+clone ? anyway do a search with these keywords in elf upgrading and elf forum.
Good luck
Ohhhh!!!....thanks, im so sad because i cant flash the rom, can youy say me how i seee if its a chinese Elf or a fake....
must be some way to know if Chinese or copy, because if Chinese if I change the rom, please tell me if there is any way to check.
Thanks!!!
the Chinese versions of these phones are called DOPOD's and if its an S1 you are looking at a Dopod S1 same as the elf or elfin with alot of the stuff removed.
its ebay if you new it was coming from HK then you should have thought about it. and how cheap did you buy it
i bougth it for 169 bucks coming from california.....
and its all that i know....
Thanks!

Don't worry. I do have the same clone machine, I think.
You do need to do that with the device off or standby (I tried standby and worked). Also, the buttons pressing must be for some seconds (say 10 o more).
First press both red & green buttons and keep them pressed, and then press the power button (on top) and keep the three buttons pressed for +10 seconds or up to the moment you see ALL BLUE SCREEN. Then release the buttons.
In my case, I was searching for a solution after installing the WM6 SDHC drivers as directed (replacing dll files and the like) but then my device didn't recongnized a Kingston 8GB SDHC miniSD nor my previous 2GB miniSD.
After this Hard Reset procedure all returned to normal so I could restore my last backup file from card.
i have wm6.5 rom but it's chinese langue.

Only thing I can think of is to doc-format (mtty). And then flash ROM again. Then make sure you Hard Reset.

wow , thanks for guide me.
as your experiences , this work would be harmful for the device ?
thankx
It's not harmful - basically it totally wipes the device removing everything (including garbage). So you will, of course, need to flash a ROM afterwards.
