Hi,
Just swapped my note to a Lumia. Running 12070.
I got this issue that the screen don't turn itself off when i leave the phone alone.
The time is set to one minute but nothing happens after that. If i reboot the phone it will work a couple of times as usual, but then after a bit it is the same again.
I have done several factory resets withot any luck. Btw there is something really strange with the factory reset. When i start the phone up after the reset it remembers my Nokia account name? How could that be so? It's like the reset isn't quite resetting everything.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
EDIT:
*facepalm to myself* found the error...
The camera button was half pressed down by the softcover. Now the screen functions normally
But the mystery with remembering my Nokia account after factory reset is still a big ???
soft reset with hardware button, or hard reset with phone menu?
if you really want to hard reset it, try this, hardware method:
presse volume down+power+camera 5 sec together, wait the vibration.
then stop pressing only power button but keep pressure on volume - and camera, wait reboot
tell us

I found that soft reset is more difficult after upgrading my XDA2 to WM2003SE v2.06.00WWE...
it always failed on boot screen...
does anyone experience the same problem?
It's not fail but take longer time to boot up.
and why the bluetooth led is blinking on booting process?

No...it takes forever on the second boot screen and had to soft reset with stylus again and again and again...
PS: sometimes it's pretty fast to soft reset...
I have the same problem but since i uninstalled BT widcomm and disable Calligrapher on startup it only happens sometimes
i have the same problem.
workaround: turn phone off before softreset, or remove the simcard
:wink:
Workaround 2 (works every time!):
I have the 'record' button assigned as the screen rotation button.
After pressing the soft reset, I press the 'record' button until the bluetooth light starts blinking. (roughly about 10 - 15 seconds).
Hi guys,
I have the same problem, some times it takes forever and i end up soft reseting several times.
Yesterday it got stucked on the loading splash screen and the only way to get it out was to go into the bootloader(1.03) and do a soft reset to load the bbot again. i was starting to freak out.
Otherwise it's BIG improvement over WK2003, much quicker.
P.S.:Have to try the record button trick.
:twisted:
Dear all,
i experienceed this long booting for awhile till i noticed it's due to the increasing size of the DB_notify_queue database.
use checknotify.exe to clear it every now and then (especially before soft reset) as clearnotify.exe doesn't work with SE
another tip is to remove stk.lnk from startup coz it forces waiting the SIM to be ready (about 5 sec)
Where can i find check notifY
damn! I Can't change/assign hardware my button with wm2003se...it only listed button1 in settings > button, where's my other buttons?
checknotify, clearnotify : http://www.scarybearsoftware.com/ppc_cn_overview.html
tip : put clearnotify in your extended rom

Something similar happened to me once after a hard-reset. The "Rotate Screen" option disappeared from the keyboard shortcut list AND from the Screen control panel.
Had to hard reset again to get it back, :?
Faster Soft Reset
Try this:
1. Remove "STK.ink" from "windows/startup" folder.
2. Copy radiooff.exe to "windows" folder, then create its shortcut to "windows/startup" folder.
3. Done
Note:
Don't turn off your radio when you want to reset, as this will force the radio to be turned on, which will very much slow down the soft reset.
hi. i want to hard reset my atom life. how can i do it?
do assist me. need it as soon as possible. thanks.
This is grabbed from another forum after a google search...
"It's normally press-n-hold the on/off button --> press the reset button.
When the green+red button command appears, let go of the on/off button and press the green n red button simultaneously.
This is the standard Atom series hard reset method. Not sure for Atom Life though"
First, Hold Power button and insert stylus into the reset hole
release power button and remove stylus. you should now see message on the screen saying about hard reset, press and hold both green and red button at the same time until. when it's done system will reboot itself.
what risk if when hard reset the batt getting low?
Hard reset normally takes less than 5 seconds to clear out your older settings. Though you better charge it before hard resetting.
hehe.. if the batt getting low and die . so how?

a.f.a.i.k, ther wont be any critical defects on ur mem-card n my docs.
anyway, hard-reset clears off the saved data in ur "my docs". so it doesnt matter anyway.
its better to avoid such situation wher u dont have much batt left, and still go do a hard-reset.
a hard-reset normally take onli like less than 4-5mins.
unlike flashing in new rom from dsuu mode or sd-flashing mode, wher its safe to keep a 70% lvl of batt b4 start flashing.
hm.. hold power on/off and reset ... i try twice fail.. how?
yes..same with me..how?

To hard reset.
Keep the Power On button pressed. Then put the stylus in the reset hole. Dont leave the power button till you see the hard reset screen.
This is the exact way. I've tried it so many times
1. Hold the RECORD button (the one near the camera button)
2. While RECORD button pressed, with your stylus, push the softreset button (the one at the bottom, in the hole)
3. Hold both button for about 5 seconds
4. Release ONLY the soft reset button first
5. Then the screen will display some hard reset sequence
6. Then you can securely release the RECORD button
Attention, those are the step by step. Missing one sequence, and it will be failed
But, after the hard reset menu apeared, i don't know which menu to select if i need to hard reset my atom life. Any help with this?
Note: My phone is not rooted. This is a new stock HTC Titan from AT&T. I have not attempted to root it or use the phone in any way in which it was not designed to be used.
Problem: I was watching Netflix on my phone and accidentally hit the search button which loaded Bing search. After doing this I hit back to get back to my movie and the phone locked up. Completely frozen at an all white screen. Would not respond to anything.
I did the only thing I knew how to do which was take out the battery. Now the phone won't boot. It just stays at the white screen with the HTC logo. Is there any way I can fix this or will I have to return my phone?
Thanks for your help.
EDIT: So I called up HTC and they walked me through doing a hard factory reset, and unfortunately that did not work either. Phone still stuck in this boot loop. Taking this POS back tomorrow.
FYI to do a factory reset do the following:
1. Hold down the volume up and volume down keys at the same time (which is not the easiest thing to do on this phone)
2. With the volume up and volume down keys pressed, press the power button. This should take you to a white menu. You can navigate the options using the volume keys and to select an option hit the power key.
Probably the motherboard.. Such a thing shouldn't just happen with software bugs..

Funny you should mention this problem. I had this. But it only happened to me after I spent 4 hours setting up the phone, installing and configuring like 50 apps and a ton of games and syncing files with zune. For me a game refused to install so I did a soft reset and got stuck on the HTC logo. I had to hard reset with the volume buttons. Then I set the phone up again.. 4 hours later the tiles glitched suddenly and no apps would launch. When I did a soft reset it came back to the first time phone set up screen so it wiped performed a hard reset without me doing it. The phone has done this 3 times after setting it all up. Even one time after a soft reset (again after setting it all up) it booted to a black blank home screen with only the time on it. Had to again hard reset.
Obviously there is something wrong with my device so I'm swapping out. By the way, even some hard resets I tried to perform failed. It would go to a white screen and vibrate 6 times then do nothing and I would have to do a second consecutive hard reset. My device was one of the ones given away from the Microsoft "Inner Circle" event.
Kinda scared because I just bought another one from the event. Crossing my fingers..
I am having the same issue. It crashed 24 hours after I set it up and when it restarted, went through the setup wizard. But everything was still installed. Email and accounts still syncing. But all the music and videos I put on it were not accessable. So, I reset the Titan and everything seemed fine until it stopped installing apps. I restarted it and it was stuck on the HTC logo. So, I reset it using the hardware buttons. On boot, it vibrates once and displays the white screen, then vibrates 7 times and stays on the white screen. Only way to kill the cycle is to remove the battery.
I will be taking it back Monday to get an exchange.
Hi guys,
I have a major problem with my Lumia. It has the newest firm ware (12220) but for some reason it started doing strange. If the screen locks now (if you press the button on the side of the phone, or wait a while on this it does automatically) it just does not react at any tough on the screen. Then I have to reset it by using the power button and the volume down button so it restarts again. This keeps happening every time. So I tried the soft reset, hard reset but unfortunately nothing works. Is there a possibility to install the software again, maybe that works?! If yes, how do I do that?!
...same issue
Hello!
I have the exact same issue right now. Did you ever find any solution?
Kind regards,
Peter

Hi,
You got an old man noob here.
I got an Android Smart Rearview mirror from Ali express. It worked fine until I did a software update.
It is now stuck in a loop doing the "Optimizing Apps" thing. I have left it run for days trying to let it work its way though, but no luck.
I want to do a factory reset on it, but the only hard buttons are the power button, and a reset button.
I have tried to hold both buttons, just the reset button, just the power button, and randomly pushing both of them.
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks
