Strange.
Very strange! After doing the procedures, the rose ask to do the reboot and stop in logo of HTC. I had never happened me in any pda.
Now what i do?
You have to wait about 4-5 minutes then Rose will reboot again and will install the additional software.
1. From the Home screen, press the Start button.
2. Press More
3. Select Accessories
4. Select Clear Storage
5. You will be prompted to enter a code, enter 1234
I had the same probleem, my HTC S740 freezes after reboot with the HTC logo screen. I tried the follwoing and it worked:
- press and hold vol down and the navigation key
- pres and release directly the power botton
- a messege will apear, press the navigation key.
- the device will reset to factory settings
- a messege appear asking to press vol up to restart
- device will restart and begin reinstalling the software, reboot after then.
May i ask what are the applications (that came installed with the phone) that are gone with the hard resetting ?
Thanks
HTC s740 backup before reset
hi...i would like to know if there is anything one can do to back the information up before resetting the Phone as i have crucial Data i cant affort to loose. PLS HELP!?
There are few backup softwares which can backup almost everything on your phone, and you can easily recover it after hard reset. I personally use Sprite Backup, which is probably the best one.
there is nothing in the wiki or anywhere that explains how to hard reset (unles i just missed it somewhere)
Not sure if they apply to the CDMA but here are the ones from the Wiki:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Raphael_For_Beginners
I use a variation of those on my GSM RAPH, try #1 to see if it works for your CDMA RAPH:
1) Hard Reset
- Turn off
- Press & hold Action
- Press & hold Volume Down
- Turn on
- Wait for TriColor Bootloader and release buttons
- Follow onscreen instructions
2) Bootloader for Flashing new NBH
- Turn off
- Press & hold Volume Down
- Turn on
- Wait for TriColor Bootloader and release button
- Start ROM Flash utility on PC. If flashing a RAPHIMG.NBH on SDCard, flash begins automatically.
HTH,
For my sprint tp, I've found the easiest way is with the device turned off, I press the vol. down then the center of dpad while holding both then press the on/off button holding all three untill the onscreen instructions appear.
this thing will NOT hard reset, its about to go HARD against the wall LOL
I get a window that says
"warning"
power will be turned off,
and you may lose data if
you have not saved them.
Do you want to continue?
if i hit yes it just rebbots, and obviously if i hit no it does nothing
just cleared storage and will try after to hard reset.
NOPE still not working, im holding the vol down and the enter key then pressing the power button on top and holding all three down and i still get the same message.
even tried it with vol down/dpad/power and noada zip zilch zero

Do you happen to have a Verizon Touch Pro, if so the only way to Hard Reset is to do Clear Storage under Settings, System.

From the leo hints, tips and reg tweaks thread:
15. How to Hard Reset your Phone
To hard reset your phone which means to delete ALL personal data and settings and have the phone in factory default conditions as if you turned on the phone for the first time after purchasing, press the following buttons:
1. With the device turned off, press and hold the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons, then briefly press the POWER button.
2. Continue pressing the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons until you see this message on the screen:
"This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to the manufacturer default settings. Press VolUp to restore manufacturer defaults, or press other keys to cancel."
3. Release the VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
4. Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
You can also use Clear Storage to reset your device back to factory default settings.
1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap All Settings.
2. On the System tab, tap Clear Storage.
3. Enter “1234” and then tap Yes.
Make sure you back up all your data such as Contacts, Appointments etc or they will be gone forever.
If you have flashed a custom ROM you need to download (if you don't have a backup) your stock ROM and flash it.
Thread for how to do that is HERE.
thanks a lot guys ill give this a shot. much appreciated

OK, I'm kinda new to these forums as well, although I do have a certain amount of experience with Android. The simplest way to unlock your device would be to factory reset it (this will erase all the data on your device though). Because you can't unlock the tablet to get to the Settings menu and do this the usual way, you'll need to do it from recovery. From a quick bit of Googling, this is how you get into recovery mode and factory reset from there on your device (note that I don't own an MSI Enjoy 7 so I can't verify this, but it's pretty standard stuff):
1. Make sure your device is completely switched off
2. Press power and volume down at the same time until an Android logo appears
3. Now release the two buttons before holding the power button and pressing the volume button ONCE (don't hold it) and a menu should appear
4. Release the power button and use the volume buttons to scroll to an option which goes something like this: "wipe data/factory reset"
5. Press power to choose this option and again use the volume buttons and power button to confirm (if it asks you).
6. Your device will be reset and unlocked! :good:

Hi jackos2500! Thanks for the information about factory reset. But unfortunately my tablet has already no factory mode that's why I'm asking the other way (Backing up ROM, How to find compatible firmware and Android flash method). Much better if you can assist me on that!

Are you sure that there is no factory reset option in the stock recovery? There should be or else you wouldn't be able to factory reset it at all (even if you could unlock the device). Just to clarify, you don't need to be able to unlock the tablet to factory reset (at least that's the way it's been on every Android device I've ever used)

Alright man! Problem solved! After second attempt of web searching, I got the solution. You're right! I thought I lost my Factory Option because my tablet only display an Exclamation point inside a triangular shape with an android logo beside and no factory options to access. The web says that means the factory mode was already deleted and cannot be accessed anymore. But fortunately I got the true answer. I need to press again a combination of buttons in order to access the Factory Mode.
This is what I did:
a) Completely shut down the tablet first.
b) Press power button and volume up simultaneously and hold them for a while; then remove power button after 5 secs.
c) Wait for the green Android icon with a triangle and an exclamation mark to appear before removing the volume up.
d) Press the Power button and Volume up simultaneously for the Factory mode to appear. Remove both.
e) Here you are, the set up screen will appear, and you may proceed to do your selection.
