Is there a red light on top when you restart you phone i.e. after removing and attaching the battery again?
You could also try the short pin method if there is red light on top. Short pin method should definitely work, but it's worth having a look around in few 'sticky'ed threads in the forum there are plenty of solutions. Don't loose hope just yet, try few things, you can't make you phone any worse than what it is right now.
If there is no light - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682480

Had this problem a while back... I had to hard reset after installing some HTC OEM Keyboard. Use the Pin Method to flash another rom. Sometimes in some roms the camera button doesnt work in WM, but the physical button actually works.. I managed to hard reset from Aragons 6.5 + Sense ROM with the camera button in the past..

Thanks to all 3 of you
I have managed to use the short pin method and it is now unbricked
i proceeded to try and install the keyboard .cab again but was greeted with the same response of the tg01 not working, so ive sorted it again, i was just wondering if any of you guys knew a good keyboard that i could use?? the sense keyboard is nice but when i turn to landscape its absolutely useless.
also bieng knew, now that ive had the responses i needed could you advise me on whether i just leave the thread or ask a mod to close it?
many thanks!

I have a keyboard cab attached in links in my signature - click on DruROM1, DruROM2 - they have a nice colourful keyboard - no problems at all!
it's called 'finger keyboard' developed here at XDA, free and colourful - I think comes in about 12 different colour combinations! and at least 15 different languages too!! Give it a go and let me know if you like it
No need to close this thread, as in case someone else in future has same problem as yours, they might be able to write back to us if it doesn't work for them
However, if mods don't like it, they will close it any way
Glad your TG01 is alive again!

okay thank you
ill stick the .cab on as soon as ive synced my phone again and let you know what i think
are there any people on here that need things testing for the tg01?
its just i really need to either A do something special with it to make me love it again or B get rid of it and look into my next phone haha

Mine is bricked too.I try first time when it have the little light the pin metod didn't work but with tg downloader it works and write to 100% the restart but didn't restart it stays power off then i disconnect it and try to power on but turn only the green light and vibrate then goes off.On the second try to see my phone with tg downloader i must do the pin try without the memory card and then connect to the notebook it saw my phone and again write to 100% but didn't restart and the same after i disconect it only green light and vibrate.I do this about 3 times but the same i try first the official orange ro and then official orange uk but the same.

do you have any other suggestions drupad2drupad?
i installed the .cab and it is a very nice keyboard actually but im getting a line about 2mm above the keyboard that still has the screen before frozen on, the rest of the screens fine though.the only other thing that is putting me off is having to close the keyboard to send a message :/
other than that id reccomend it to others

have you tried the 'unbrick' method that is in stick'ed thread? does it respond to that?
Don't worry yet - your phone is NOT bricked completely. There are good chances you can get it back. Just make sure you don't try anything that will brick it totally. When you stop getting lights on/vibration and only faint white light- that is when it's completely bricked. So go slow, try what is said on stickied thread in the forum step by step - MAKE SURE YOU CHARGE YOUR BATTERY 100% if NOT, the you will definitely end up bricking your phone!!! Please charge your phone for few hours if needed first!

That is something strange I've come across :s
Shouldn't ideally do that. But anyways, I have attached another keyboard Give it a go...
For trying different things - you could test different UIs - in my signature click on UI and you will find different TG01 UIs that users at XDA use!
You could definitely test my new ROMs! - have 4 of them - will keep you occupied for a bit... Please make sure you have fully charged battery and you know exactly how to flash a rom. Don't brick your phone! No one has bricked it using my roms as such but please dont be the first one!
There are plenty of ROMs to try from - thread 1 stickied in the forum has a whole big table of roms..

yeahh
i was looking more to just work straight with one developer to be honest.
any yeah battery 100!%, to execute the .enc file i use sddl+ instead of the other people mention
would that be a problem? and where would i find these new roms of yours? haha
ill give that keyboard a go now and let you know
thanks!

not .enc - .tsw in your PRG folder.
my roms are in my signature - DruROM1 to 4.

Landscape doesnt work well in htc keyboard, because it is 2.0. the new update 2.1 solves the landscape issue. i have the cab for that, but can't remeber where i got it from. this wont brick your device. try a search on the acer forum for brainmasters htc keyboard 2.1
Hope i helped mate!

in SENSE Roms is most the htc keyboard installd. when you install a other relase= your tg01 will not boot. only helps a hard reset. before you install a new htc keyboard install Default InputMethod (select your default Keyboard when WinMo starts)
and select toshiba or microsoft keyboard as standard. now you can install the new htc keyboard and tg01 boot normally!

Boot Freeze solution

I never got this one till I installed Prophet touch VIII.
I'm guessing it's one of the today plugins/startup folder files that tries to read or write in some corrupted file.
Last time I got it I only got 2 today plugins: HTC home and battery status.
I found a way to reboot without hard reset so I'm going to explore the culprit
I've read in another forum spb pocket plus activates safe mode which loads windows without today plugins or services. It boots on boot screen freeze...
Next step, unplug the plugins 1 by one until it boots...
So for now I'll just wait for the next boot screen freeze
I'll keep you posted
Here you have the right application for your needs. SAFEMODE ver.2.1
THis will let you solve freezing problems. I advance you that most problems come from HTC HOME and visual changes made with 3rd party programs...and a classic: installing default keyboards with 3rd party software like SKTools

I hadn't made any install before the boot freeze. I had several programs installed but I soft reseted after every install to try to catch the incompatibility... still... freeze...

tried the no sd solution.. to no avail... I'm tracking the problem down with a safe mode. so far I got no freeze so no conclusions...
I used to have this boot freeze issue with my PDAViet 4.0.0.0.6. The problem comes almost like every 2 weeks, sometimes if I'm lucky.. 3 weeks. In my ROM, it always stuck and I had suspected it to be the HTC X-Button. So, I just disabled it and now I'm using PBar 1.4. I think the problem disappeared for good now after I use PBar.
You are welcome to try

I'm using prophet touch VIII so I never got x-button...
I'm on the third clean week since I disconnected battery status... so for now I'm blamming that fellow
Hi Folks,
this is the first time I can read from someone else having the same issue as i do...!!!
I tried several rom's and latetly a thought its my neo! I have one some application installed but when i reflect the thread - yes! it must be one of the today plugins!
I have one 3 activated (!!!) plugins
a) HTC
b) Birthdayz
c) Calender
I had suxxess in geting my device up again when I removed the battery until the neo lost time&date. I assume it has to be the Birtdayz and/or Calender plugin. I would understand Birtdayz - but Calender would be odd!
I'll deinstall birthdayz and have a look at it!

Please help AP4 and Opera won't start at all anymore

Opera was working like a dream and then I changed a setting in real vga and installed tomtom. That was all I did i think and now when i try to start opera the splash screen fires up the status bar starts and then POP, disappears. Nothing. I've been searching forums and there's some reference to not enough memory but i uninstalled tomtom and other things and still can't get it to work.
I also installed it again from a cab i got here, but nothing.
Any help appreciated

I'm sorry to say, but it looks like your best option is a hard reset. It will save more trouble in the end, if you haven't done a backup then now is a good time to use one. Do a hard reset then reinstall all your contacts, appointments, and such, then your programs. Then use a backup program like sprite, and backup. sprite has a 10 day trial and once it ends you can still restore from the first backup . unless someone knows a good free backup software program. think HTC do one???
Regrds
Jay
hi, thanks. I was trying to avoid a hard reset but thought that might be the only option dammit.

Like I said, use the opportunity to make a backup then you always have a base to start from. I use sprite, you can even use it when swapping roms. save all that messing about getting things back how you want them.
good luck
Jay
Thanks for the advice. I did a hard reset and then slowly put back on the apps and things. Then I found out the cause of the problem. It was the Thinkoutside drivers. I have a Thinkoutside bluetooth mouse and a keyboard and as soon as I installed the driver for the mouse Opera died. I uninstalled it and Opera started again. I am now using Bluemouse and it's fine.
Sprite is awesome to BTW so thaks for the tip. I downloaded the trial and now I'm going to buy it.

Im pleased you have it sorted now, its a good chance for a clean out and a spring clean. At least now you have a bsae to go back to if anything else goes wrong, Sprite has been a favourite of mine since I first started years ago. I did have problems getting the backup file to self boot, however that seems to be ok now. Just tap on the backup file on your storage card and off it goes.
All the best

Doing factory reset, wizard force closing

Hello,
Earlier today, my phone just started acting up. All day, every single app was force-closing to where I cannot even use the phone anymore. Email, google docs, dialer one, calendar, everything. It was annoying.
I decided to run a hard-reset by pressing the up/down arrows and power button. I chose factory reset and saw the lock screen.
I got to the HTC vision and I was able to enter my google account so I can start synching up my phone.
After clicked the "finish set-up I get a force Close again. Here is the exact error.
Sorry!
The application Setup Wizard (process com.android.setupwizard) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Since I can't click on anything else, I click on force close and I basically cannot see anything after that. No home screen, but I do see the taskbar on top. When I turn off and turn the phone on, I will get stuck at the Dell Logo.
Please help!!! I don't know what to do.
I have the Dell Froyo Stock Rom, can't remember exactly what build.
Thank you guys
I also don't see anything if I press on the physical menu button. I put it on my dock, I clicked the clock icon and it automatically force close, did not even see the clock.
This is so wierd. I appreciate all the help.
Thank you
Nim
Wrong place to ask question. This is for developing thread.
Sent from my Dell Streak using xda premium
The mods will move the thread to the right place, but to try and help the OP out, it sounds like the inner MicroSD may be going bad. Run a diagnostic on it by getting the Streak into Fastboot mode (instructions on the wiki), then tapping *#301# into the keypad that pops up in Fastboot. You should see a list of options of which one should be to test the MicroSD.
If the MicroSD passes the diagnostic, then the ROM somehow became corrupt and you need to flash a new copy. If the MicroSD doesn't pass the diagnostic, it will need to be replaced.
I am really sorry.. I thought I was in the proper thread.
Mods, please delete, I will make a new thread to the other sub-forum. I apologize once again.
Strephon Alkhalikoi: Thank you for your help. I ran the diagnostic and fortunately SD card and SIM card is working fine.
So looks like I have to reflash the ROM, I kind of have an idea. I flashed the official Dell Froyo long time ago but I cannot remember exactly how. I guess I'll have to wait until Monday coz my computer at work is set-up already for ADB and all that.
Hit the thanks button next to my post if I was helpful. And...deleting a thread isn't necessary. The mods may move it if they feel it belongs in another section, and for them that's not a great deal of work.

I can tell you a little about my experience with the theme editor. Unfortunately the experience is very bad.
Off 25 tries I got it ONE time beyond "create new theme" and actually saw a theme screen. after that it crashed again.
This is the worst piece of software I have seen so far. I wonder how people make themes...

Bypassing startup password

Hi, new here and I am hoping you guys can help me. I tried the sticky tread, but no response.
I have a problem and can't seem to find a solution.
Yesterday my phone had some problems with the camera and suggested to restart the phone. Did so, but now it is asking me for a password to startup the phone. I forgott my password and came to my last try. If I get it wrong this time, my phone will reset itself, deleting all the data. Is there a way to bypass this first password?
I am finding stuff about how to unlock a lockscreen (for example: https://android.imyfone.com/remove-screen-lock/unlock-motorola/), but I haven't even reached to that step yet, at least I think. Maybe I am seeing/understanding things wrong.
My phone is still the way it came out of the factory, so no rooting or USB debugging. It's a Motorola One, no idea which android version it is running on. I bought the phone in 2019, so I am guessing it's running on Pie or higher, if possible Sorry, I am a true newbie at this.
From the Netherlands, sorry for any typos..
Please help!
This may come over as if I am trying to use someone elses phone, but it is mine. I can prove it. I have proof in the form of an invoice. I will show it if needed.
Please, there are photo's and other personal data on the phone. I don't want to lose it unless I have no choice. Maybe somebody knows a way how to get my personal data copied to the computer? Then I can perform a hard reset. Please help me..
salam aleikum,
we both seem to have the same problem.
my phone is not from factory, but from a Basar.
It looks absolutely new, no scratch.
But when i started it first 2 weeks ago, i could not even get past start menu.
It has a "Lock Pattern" and it is still registered with someone. But obiously it is used before, it came without Box or Manual.
Ive tried hours and days to get it to work.
But all i can find is people on youtube that bypass the password, but for me it doesnt work. I have no idea what Android version it is running, but the Glitches that i found where people go from "foreign keyboards" to "Feedback" into Chrome and appstore dont work.
I can not return it, do i only have expensive Trash now or Is it Possible to Install AndroidOS again and overwrite?
I tried factory reset and know now how to go into the BIOS.
I have never done any Modifications or Rooting to any phone, im okay with computers.
But from reading here it seems I have to know exactly what version my phone is on or its possible to break it completely.....
I saw the Bios_Menu "install from disk"
So i guess if i get the right version an a memorycard maybe i can do like a windows or linux "format/c" an have a fresh start?
I dont have money for a new phone, curretly i still have a wiko lenny 2 but the display is broken an i can only use half of the keyboard.
Always need to turn the screen and every message or google search takes one hour.
Please just tell me YES or NO
i will learn it myself but now im really frustrate by this.
EDIT: Through the keyboards i managed to get to feedback section and found this infos:
Package Version: 26751214
Package Version Name: 7.5.12.211120031release arm 64 v8a
Adnd some others
