so i was trying to put music on to my new HD2. ive had it about a good week and a half. the music never showed up on my device using windows media player sync then then Windows mobile Device center wouldnt recognize my phone.. then i tried to reset my phone and then thats when it happened. i cant get into my phone now.. i tried the whole battery out many many times... but no matter what i do it wont show my home screen. the phone boots up i guess.. it shows the tmobile screen...then the windows screen... but when the home screen is supposed to come up it doesnt.. just the wall paper.... and no buttons n screen touching work... i was able to get into the start menu for a bit but now..... nothing. im about to get my hammer and relieve some stress this phone is causing me... someone please help me out.
try a hard reset my friend, turn the phone off, hold both volume buttons down and the press the power button, its tricky to et first time, but it does work, follow the instructions and youre phone will be back to when you first bought it, bad point is u will loose anything you dont have backed up
but all files saved on storage card will be there after the hardreset.

It doesnt like being synced with windows media player.......
If you havent already hard reset then theres is a fix for you near the end of this thread
Next time your putting your music to your phone, drag n drop is the way to go........
alright guys i think i may be screwed here.
teh phone i got is the HD2 runing widnows mobile "5.2.21869"
now the problems i have is that most of the apps i go in to, teh screen orientation is stuck on landscape and there is nothign i can do to get it back. shaking violently dosen't work for all teh rage fixers out there.
i tryed re-calibrating the G-sensor with no luck. then for a laugh i calibrated it so that the phone though flat was at some obscure angle, then reset to flat, alro with no luck.
i have done the foctory reset located within the operting system with no change, and i have done the manufacture's reset as well (the one where you hold down teh volume buttons and tap the power button).
now i have the firmware update that will most likely fix this but there is a problem (which is where i think im screwed). whenever i plug the phone into my pc, or any other, it simply charges adn will not recognise that i have connected it to a computer. (i have dissabled charging whenever connected to a PC).
so do you have any suggestions guys or am i as screwed as i think i am.

After you plug the phone into a usb port on the pc, does a screen pop up on the phone letting u choose from either : charge only, disk drive, or the one u need for update "sync"
If not you might have to download a new windows rom from the hd2 rom section and put it on the sd card
checkout this newbie section on how to
just verify in the settings under phone how what is your rom size
for 512 MB ROM use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
for 1024MB ROM use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614
There are instructions there on how to do this without using the usb cable, Just flash thru the SD CARD
Good Luck
Hi,
i bought a Touchpad on Ebay. The problem is that i can't get it into Recovery or anything else. The screen went all black. I tried several key combinations (volume up + power, home + volume up + power). When i plug it to my pc it recognizes a device. I also tried the WebOS Doctor but no success. Is there a other possibility to bring it back to live?
Greetings Markus
You say it's recognized, so that's a start. Try this:
Press and hold VolUp + Power, then repeatedly hit Home about 15-20 times. You won't notice anything happening, but that forces it to do a hard poweroff. Then, press-and-hold Power + VolUp + Home, and that should turn it on in WebOS Recovery Mode.
Actually, you dont have to do all these weird button combinations to get into recovery. just holding down the home button and the power button for about 10 seconds forces a reboot. When it restarts, but before the HP logo appears, just hold down the volume up button to go into webOS recovery. You will know you are in recovery when you get a big usb symbol in the middle of the screen. If you ran the webOS doctor, you would have had to do this so when you say you ran the doctor, did it actually run it?

Hi,
thank you for your answers. I have tried these combinations several times, but with no success. But I can hear, when the device is connected to my PC (Windows), that peep peep sound when you plug in an USB device. So there will be a reset of the device i think.

Maybe the screen is dead. If your Touchpad is off, I dont think the computer will recognize it until its turned on. If your computer is recognizing it, I would think that it is on, just not displaying anything. When you press the volume buttons, do you hear any sound indicating the volume is being adjusted?
When you bought it off of ebay did you make sure it didnt say broken or for parts only, something like that? How much did you buy it for?

Deleted partition? Thats probably not good. So did the seller actually describe that it wasnt turning on and working? If, somehow, they deleted the whole operating system off of the tablet, including recovery, you might be in a bad place with that. There MAY be a way to force load webOS on the device but I, personally, don't know about that. Someone with more computer skills will have to help you. If the seller didnt explain that it wasnt even turning on, You should try to contact them.
Hi, he did mention that.
But i thought the recovery mode still works. So my fault.

Ah. Well I dont know if there is a way to get it to work. If anyone can help you though, it would be the people over at webOS Nation. Maybe try asking over there. webOS devices are their thing.

Thank you for your help!
I will try it on the other forum and report any changes.

So I have two of my old Galaxy S2's which needed their charging port fixed. So after a very long time of collecting dust, I decided I'd fix them, and sell them on.
Now we run into a problem. Phone 1 is fine, I'll be able to do something with that since I can access recovery. Phone 2 is a major pain.
It is pattern locked, and for the life of me don't even remember using pattern lock, so who knows what the bloody pattern is. No data is enabled on the device is seems, so Google can't help me.
Also, seems USB debugging is off, because I can't get ADB to see the phone. This surprises me, because I always have it on.
Now the killer. I can't get into recovery. I've tried all sorts of button combinations, but it simply will not load it. There doesn't seem to be any download mode on it either.
Now, this phone has a custom ROM, so this trikes me as odd, but my brain seems to be telling me I may have had a problem with this phone and recovery in the past.
I'd really appreciate any help in getting into these phones so I can sell them.
Samsung have been about as useful as a wet sock, and Vodafone Australia, well, they're the other sock.
Hopefully someone can help me out.:good:
can you get it into downloading mode (home botton + volume down + power button)?

No, that's not working either.
Right, so I just opened the phone again. I have managed to break the volume rocker ribbon. At least now I can move towards a fix. Sorry to bother you all.
No download mode or recovery, no data = you're not fixing it without doing something drastic on the hardware side (as you've just found out).
ask if is there a way to do a factory reset from computer
I checked all the other threads on this and they don't seem to apply. I have an xperia s tablet that I really like. It was becoming slow so I finally decided it was time to root. Thanks Condi for the motochopper. I got it rooted successfully but then it was running too slow to be useable. I found a program to run that was supposed to rearrange the memory the way you defrag a computer drive. After running that the tablet would only turn on to the Sony logo. I did a factory reset a couple of times and now I can not turn on at all. I get the green charge light and I can get the red single blink when I do a reset but then when I press the power button I get the white light comes on and goes right back off. I tried with the up vol, down vol and no other keys but nothing. I have tried plugging into the computer and sometimes it sees a malfunctioning USB device and sometimes it sees nothing. I have run the xperia unbricker I found on here and it says waiting for device. I tried plugging it in with that program running but no luck. The only other post I found that was related the user said it was a motherboard failure. I'm not ready for that yet. Any ideas out there? Thanks in advance.
