hi guys, i mistakenly downloaded the hd2 touch screen lock app on my touch pro 2 wm6.5 device, after installing, it prompted my phone to restart, when the phone came back on, it came on with the lock screen app, and am unable to unlock my phone, i'v been trying my default password to no avail, someone told me to download active sync for my device and sync it with my desktop so i can uninstall the file from there, but, i cant find the active sync anywhere on the web, any suggestions on what else i should do?

just hard reset your device to fix it, about how to do hard reset ! look at http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_touch_pro_2_rhodium_hard_reset_soft_reset_en.html and if you still need active syn, find at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=15

Hi guys,
recently flashed a new rom onto my HTC HD2..
Obviously it wipes out numbers/contacts etc..
So now when Ive gone to sync my phone with Microsoft MyPhone I get a your phone time is wrong error so I can not complete the setup.
I have changed my phone time, changed the locale to UK etc..
nothing is working!!
Any suggestions?
you can try and re-install it, i have the latest version i think i'll upload it
Double check that the time and date is 100% accurate. Disable the 12 hour clock while setting it up if that helps. If you still have trouble then hard reset the device and start from scratch
This week I stalled an app which totally ****ed up my HD2. I don't remember the name of the app, but installing it resulted in the following:
-Whenever I press the home hardbutton my navipanel starts up and it is very hard to turn it off.
-Whenever I open an sms or email the screen automatically tilts to the landscape mode and doesn't tilt back.
-Whenever I open opera browser the screen automatically tilts to the landscape mode and doesn't tilt back.
-Start softbutton not working.
This is all quite annoying so I did a reset to factory settings. However this didn't solve the problem, so I am assuming that dreadfull app I installed did an override on the factory settings.
So the next thing I tried was installing the latest rom from the htc website, which should have been an easy thing. However it failed midway. Now the issue is that my computer doesn't not recognize my HD2 anymore when I connect it with the cable.
So the question is? What do I do now? I was hoping anyone could help me with this problem. Before when I was a student I had plenty of time to search the net/forums for a solution, but now I am working full time and I already spend most of my weekend trying to solve this issue. So please anyone help me out

i have to leave for work in 5 minutes so i won't be able to follow this up...but..
when you say factory reset, did everything else go back to what it was as you bought it?
1- can you get to bootloader (when booting up phone hold the "down volume"-- i think it is down, may be up. try it.)
2- if so you are good.
3- in bootloader flash hspl
4- flash new rom
I performed the factory reset multiple times and by 2 methods.
-setting->return to factory settings
-turning off the device-> press down the volume up/down buttons and press cancel call button
All settings were turned back to the original settings however the 2 problems (1: tilting screens and 2: unable to detect device on computer) did not disappear.
I tried to do what jsmccabe78 said, but my device just booted up like normal. No bootloader screen or anything.
I have anyone else has an idea.
Make a backup of your contact list.
And make a Hard reset!
In difficult situations, you can maybe use/do a "Task 29"
using the second option I described is a hard reset
try reflashing a stock ROM.

now what do you see when you boot your phone? have you tried deleting the settings for your phone on your computer for wmdc/activsync? 0have you tried uninstalling wmdc and reinstalling? try those first.
now, if your computer still does not recognize your phone your next option is to load another rom - whether it is a newer official rom or a customized one (your choice.) if you cannot connect your phone you will need to do this with bootloader.
if you can boot your phone, you can get into bootloader.
to get to bootloader:
turn phone off.
hold "volume down" button key.
turn phone on.
this will get you to bootloader. if this doesn't work, i am out of ideas. you need a new rom and you can flash from an storage card, but you need to have hspl first.
let me know.
now you can 1- flash hspl and 2- flash new rom
Sorry for the late response jsmccabe78. Thank you for your response. I got my phone into bootloader mode which enabled me to make a link to my computer. I ran the stock rom that I downloaded from the htc website and it installed succesfully.
Unfortunately this did not solve the problems I described in the OP.
-Whenever I press the home hardbutton my navipanel starts up and it is very hard to turn it off.
-Whenever I open an sms or email the screen automatically tilts to the landscape mode and doesn't tilt back.
-Whenever I open opera browser the screen automatically tilts to the landscape mode and doesn't tilt back.
-Start softbutton not working.

Also my computer still doesn't not recognize my HD2 outside of bootloader mode. Reinstalling WMDC did not solve this issue.
I am still thinking these issues are software related and not hardware related. But reinstalling the stockrom should have fixed the issues if it was software related shoud it not?
So 2 questions remain;
1) How do I fix the issues in the OP
2) How do I get my computer to recognize my HD2 outside of bootloader
I hope anyone can help me solve this mystery.
Try it with no sd card in and see if you still have the problems? If you do :Take out your sd card and put it into your pc with card adaptor. Then delete the application data folder on your sd card. If that doesn't work make a back up of whatever stuff is on your sd card and then re-format it, then and copy back your apps and stuff. If you had a rough idea of what it was you installed try and leave that out when you copy your files back to sd. If you didnt have much on your sd card i would suggest to just wipe it totally and start again. Hopefully this should sort it, if not im out of ideas. Hope this helps if not soz but thought id try
I formatted my SD card, used the return-to-factory-settings function again and still the same issues. No connection to my computer and all the above issues... getting a bit desperate here...
Does anyone have an idea what could be the problem here?
Hi,
when I reset my Optimus One with VolDown, Power + Home something got messed up and I received a phone where the desktop is not starting any longer.
After the above reset the setup screen appears where I can choose my language etc, but at the last step I get a force close message for the Setup Wizard every single time. When I then force close, the screen goes dark except for the status bar on the top.
After a while the phone autolocks and I can see the lock screen with moving grass and time etc. When I unlock, again the black screen with only the status bar on top.
The phone receives SMS messages and calls and shows the appropriate screen, just no desktop to choose any apps to start. I can even long press home and then get the recent apps screen with no apps to start.
Can someone help me to get my phone functional again?
Thanks.
Binser
seems like problem with your launcher app. use adb push command to push new launcher in your phone.
no debug

Yes that would be a good idea if I could enable USB debug. But I cannot get to the settings where I could enable USB debug, therefore ADB push is not a possible option for me.
u can log into your google account on desktop and install any launcher app from playstore , it will automatically get installed on your cell if your data is on.

Thanks again for ur input: But the VolDown Menu Power thing did a complete reset and therefore the phone is completely virgin, i.e. no google account is set-up.
While during initial boot the setup wizard comes up, I get the error message:
"The application Setup Wizard (process.com.android.setupwizard) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
So I cannot setup a google account for this phone.
u may be able to go to contacts screen while on call. there u will have an option to add google account. try this n if this doesn't work try resetting your phone again.
Thank you! That did it! I called myself with another phone and during the call via the menu button I was able to go into the account section and add an account. Then the play store updated (some time is needed for registration to take hold on the play store web site) and then I installed the Go launcher via web install.
After I got access to the launcher, I immediately activated USB debugging in Settings > Application Settings > Development and also install from unknnown sources in Application Settings.
I wrote these details so that people with the same problem of corrupted launcher or setup wizard know what to do.
BTW before I tried numerous phone resets but none solved the problem.
Now I still have the following problem: To root a reset is suggested to have a clean file system. A reset however again gives me the above problem. How can I break that vicious cycle?
Again, thanks a million for your help.

Binser

No need of reset or so, just root and install clockworkmod recovery via ROM manager app, choose optimus 1 old baseband even if u r on new coz the recovery for old baseband is much more stable.
NOTE:-
do not choose to boot into recovery from ROM manager,u might end up at emergency mode. instead use the key combo to enter into recovery.
don't choose to factory reset from phone menu once u have installed custom recovery, instead do that from recovery.
Thanks, hephappy's ICS CM9 is running well now.
There is only one problem, possibly because I did not get your advice about old baseband in time: Cannot make or receive calls/texts, but I am being asked for SIM PIN and the phone shows the carrier ID in notifications.
My phone has the 20d baseband - is that the problem? Do I need to upgrade to 20g or would that not matter?
Regards,
Binser
OK, I flashed the 20G baseband and the problems are now history. I can make an receive calls.
There was a problem when flashing: The phone did not reboot into recovery mode. I had to do that manually and disable the LG modem. Then when the process was done I the phone showed 20G baseband, but no IMEI and network. I solved that by using the saved NV2 file in a subdirectory of the LGMDP.exe and the NV Restore button on the program icon bar.
Now everything is fine.
Again, thank you for your help.

It is probably too late for you, but maybe it will help somebody else - I have found how to factory reset Omegle PC tablet. Press ALL the keys, except the power button, at the same time (that means - volume up, volume down, home, back and menu keys) and then press Power key. After that tablet started in recovery mode, I had to press volume and power buttons again to enter menu where I had service commands, amongst them is factory reset (wipe all data).
Hey guys, i have installed a unofficial Cyanogenmod 11 kitkat 4.4 custom rom and i am very satisfied with it.
But today i was just messing around the lock screen options and i choosed a 6x6 pattern and applied it. But unfortunately after an hour or so i realized that i totally forgot the pattern i choosed. And now when i write the pattern 5 times wrong, it just locks for 30 seconds and i can try again but i cant reset it with my Gmail or anything like that, it just keeps locking for 30 seconds after 5 wrong attemps. Would re-installing the rom remove the lock screen? Or maybe a factory reset? Or can i just remove the pattern in any way? Any help would be appreciated!

You can always do a factory data rest and lsoe all your settings and installed apps.
Haven't experienced this before but a quick search led me here: http://null-byte.wonderhowto.com/ho...u-bypass-android-pattern-lock-screen-0138807/
Worth a try.
In the stock rom when you forget your pattern you can unlock via google account but unfortunately cyanogenmod doesn't have this feature, i also tried the command prompt solution but it didn't work, i got errors like "cant path to xx" or cant delete gesture.key because it doesn't exist, but anyway the factory reset did the job. Thank you guys!
A solution that worked for me
Well, I've logged into Google play, got into "device manager" and then selected "lock".
Essentially, it asked me to define a new password, and shortly afterwards ( probably after the push notification was sent) I was able to unlock with the new password.
