I loaded Yuki's ROM and updated to Mango via Zune. Had it running for about a week before I discovered that when I turn off the phone and then turn back on, it gets stuck at the point where it should be loading the home screen. I get the time at the top and that's it; the phone is completely unresponsive. The only fix I found was to do a hard reset and start over. I thought maybe an application caused this so after the reset, I turned off the phone before loading any other applications. It got stuck again at the same place. I suppose this could be linked to the sd card and I'll try a different one. Just wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this problem.
--Edit--
I've linked my issue to the sd unlock cab. As long as I don't install, mango restarts with no problems.
I've had this a few times.
Usually get the lockup at the SIM password screen.
Just reboot again and it will come back. Sometimes a couple of boots are needed.
I have a supported Sandisk card BTW.
Thanks. I've given it 2 tries before the reset but not more. I'll try to be more patient with it this time...or just avoid turning it off
I had the same problem as well, reflashed it with the same problem. after doing about 3 hard resets it finally worked.
I'm getting this continually, every time i reset i end up having to hard reset...

I've had my Wallaby for a while, and for some weird reason it just stopped working (froze). I tried to format it (Hard Reset) to get it going again, but all it did was just hang at the logo screen.
Now, I've tried, and unsuccessfully, to get it to work by reflashing the ROM.
That hasn't worked. In fact, now I can no longer get to the boot-loader.
Please help!
This phone is a great phone!
My HTC was flashed with TNT. It has 2.21.0001 and 2.21.Olip. I can boot it to boot loader. I can reset it, with switch or pulling the battery. Every time it boots showing the versions, then comes to a WM6 boot screen. This is normal. However it never comes out of this screen. The LEDs flash as if it were working, but the phone is unresponsive.
Is there any way to fix this?
Do I need to reset it in some way? If so, how?
i had a same problem with TNE. after it worked fine for a year.
then i changed the rom to a new 1 and fixed all my problems . just upgraded it in bootloader mode.
Same problem. I installed BlackDiamond2.0. At the begginning everything was ok, then Send button wouldn't work till I press the Start button on the querty keyboard.
Just playing, I tried to overlook with an application that came on the package and then it didn't work any longer. It stays at the BlackDiamond picture.
And I cannot make a hard reset since Send button don't work and cannot connect with Active Sync to flash the rom.
Any idieas?
also could be a bad battery. happened with my brothers phone. acted the same way.
our phones are old now. get a replacement 10 bucks.
I flash to 7392 and i reboot my phone daily and never my phone never freezed. I updated 7392=>7720 Mango Offical recent through Zune all the way. then i did an hard reset, i set up everything on the next shutdown my phone freezes only way i can unfreeze its doing an hard reset. im tired of doing hard reset daily. Does anyone else have the problem and is there any tips or solution?
I had the same problem. This is what I did ... Do a hard reset, twice. As soon as you get rebooted enter in windows live id and activation code. Immediately reboot thrice times. It took me and hour before I got it to work and I feared I was experiencing the dreaded lack of touch response. But plenty of hard resets and reboots later I've been fine for 2 months now.
Just remember to reboot IMMEDIATELY after you enter MS activation and its accepted.
cheers mate
I had the same problem... You can try to do the whole process WM6-Radio-Magldr-WP7-Mango again.
Another thing, I noticed that if you let the phone off for few minutes, when you boot it again, it may not freeze...
Mine was doing it all the time, but after many flashed, it works perfectly.
Keep hope
Hi,
New phone and new to Windows phone 7. Classic story - the phone has stuck in boot screen, it says only "Samsung Omnia 7" and that's all. I have tried all tips I could find from internet - took the battery out and let it sit, tried to hard reset it -nothing. Actually hard reset button combination seemed not to work - when I turn it on, holding camera and volume down buttons, nothing happens, it shows boot screen and that's all. It do switch to the download mode when I turn it on holding camera and volume up buttons. I tried to reflash it (got the rom files that it came originally), and after restart the situation is the same - boot screen stuck and nothing happens.
I used WP7_downloader version 7.41, Samsung USB drivers v5.02. The weird thing was that older versions of WP7_Downloader did not work - told that flash lock was on. 7.41 seemed to work, it erased and downloaded all areas fine. I don't know if this is normal, but the flashing process itself took about 120 seconds only. I tried alternative ROM (classic I8700XXJK1), the flashing time was slightly different, but nothing changed, after flashing the device restarts and stuck to the boot screen. As I have read the flashing process should took about 10 minutes or so? I waited for about 20 minutes and nothing changed.
Can I switch the device to some debug mode or do something else that could lead me to the reason the device is not booting?
Omnia 7 stuck at boot screen after
I upgraded to Mango last week and i now too am stuck at the "Samsung Omnia 7" boot screen.
The phone seemed to do two updates, the first suceeded no problem. I started the update before going to bed. In the morning it had completed the first and was awaiting my pin code to start the device. All good.
It then prompted about the Mango update. I clicked it and left it for an hour or so. Came back and zune stated it was on the step, "restarting the phone".
The phone was showing "Samsung Omnia 7", i left it for another hour and then came back, no progress.
Nothing i've found on the net up until today has worked for me.
I can enter the format and download modes still.
This is what i've found and tried so far.

(Did a device wipe to factory defaults, and its still stuck at boot screen

(yes this is an older issue but it looked like it was working until it said something about "flash lock").
Next step is a complete ROM reinstall. But i'd really like to find out precisely which ROM i should try and if Mango is the actual culprit. I'd like to reinstall Mango if possible.
My Omnia 7 was bought secondhand.
I am with Telstra NextG carrier.
After mango update mine is behaving strange too. It shuts down itself randomly and it is stucking at omnia 7 screen. After a few try I am able to open it. But I noticed something, it's shutting down much more while it's connecting to web or PC. Can this be related? Because I couldn't find another reason about that.
hi...
I'm really desperate, my phone is suddenly dying and I have no idea why, I'll tell you from yesterday what has happened:
- I'm playing a stupid game and suddenly the screen goes black. No led, phone doesn't answer any button, nothing. I hold power button, nothing. Remove battery and put again, nothing. After some attempts phone turns on, but just after starting it reboots or stays frozen.
- I decide to change the rom (I had simpl rom), so I do a full wipe and put CM 12. It seems it works, but when I'm in the settings, at the beggining, I don't even have time to put the wifi, it starts rebooting again and/or not responding.
- Desperated, I install via odin the stock firmware from Sam Mobile. It seems it's gonna work, but when the dialog of "Android is upgrading -- Optimazitating app x of XX" it always gets stucked in a number, randomly. I never get to the 230 apps.
- As a last chance, I try Kies to install factory firmware. The same as before happens, but now it's only 17 the number of apps it tries to optimize.
These last 2 times, of course, I enter recovery from time to time (now the default one) and wipe cache partition.
My phone is agonizing, what the f is happening? Does anybody know what could happen?
Please help...
