I would say hard reset only option, other than letting it sit there for a few hours to see if something times out.
You need to use something like SPB Tools which has the option for booting into safe mode that way you can usually sort out the problem and soft reset back to normal (SPB also do a cool backup prog that would allow you to restore from SD, presuming your SD isnt corrupted of course!).
Sorry cant be of more help.
DON'T PANIC !
First of all take out your micro SD card and try booting the phone
If it boots in that way then you have nothing to worry about
Then simply delete the last program you installed on you micro SD card and put it back in your PPC and boot up as normal

Ok has that anyone had this issue with their Orbit?
I had noticed that the keyboard was not giving me any predicted text choices while typing, so I tried to change the input method to no avail. So I decided to perform a sft reset to sort the problem.
Oh was I not happy with the result as for over 5 mins all that was happening with my phone was the screen would light up o2 screen, green screen then enter pin and reset and it would do this again and again.
So even after removing the battery for a few minutes not change once I attempted to start the phone. I even reset the device via the button on the side and it made no difference.
I was just getting ready to bite the bullet and sound off the o2 when I remembered reading on here of something similar happening so I searched and found a posting saying to try and press soft reset just after phone started. And guess what it worked after that so what I want to know is why or what I did to get my phone working again?
Any ideas guys, only thing I can add was the phone was plugged in to my workstation USB so was charging when the initial soft reset was performed while using Valksoft's space reclaimer reset option.
Thanks

Ok an update the phone is now doing this everytime it is turned off. And since the last time it occurred I have been unable to get the phone to work.
Any ideas, I believe it could be a registry issue with the phone as I had recently installed a couple of programs that worked fine for a couple of days then while installing a dictionary several programs were uninstalled in error.
So after installing again this problem has arisen. It is possible that this was not th cause as I hae noticed tat the last scheduled back up was on the 22/01/07 so Monday's was not carried out possibly due to this?
my orbit has also this bug. after a soft reset he is booting up till the pin entry and then a boots again and again. Up to 5 times
Yes, my Orbit sometimes needs to reboot 4 times before it will sucessfully bring up the Home Screen. Anyone got any ideas on why???!!!??
I had enough of it doing this so I have done a hard reset and the problem has gone now just need to set everything back as I want it as backup still had the initial issue once it was retored.
I guess it was to do with the registry but not sure what exactly, maybe redundant reg keys etc?
I've experienced same problem on my dutch t-mobile mda compact III.
Happend after installing different programs, but i can't find the exact cause.
when i remove the microsd (on which i installed the programme's) the device starts en doesn't softreset when phone screen shows.
At first i thought it had to do with programs that tried to connect to gprs before even entering the pincode of the phone. But even without pincode it keeps restarting.
Happend on my 1gb microSD once en also on my 2 gb microSD.
Hope that someone knows what the cause is, so i can prevend it from happening.
Resets caused by the Memory Card Fault
Look at the posts regarding the memory card corruption if you back-up the card format it and then put it back everything is fine for a while. Not puttting a My Documents folder on the storage card usually helps with this issue...
rebooting.
hi,
as you well understand there are only 2 possibilities: software and hardware failure.
Surely, you don't want to think about hardware failure, because in this case the solution is to send it back to seller or to service center. Except for the cases caused by battery and sd card. These are 2 elements you can replace on your own easy.
However, "instability" of the device normally caused by installed software.
The first thing you do, like it or not, if you have a problem, hard reset your device.
BACKUP your DATA before hard reset!
You can try to to remove software piece by piece, but could be time consuming thing and not necessarily lead you to a good result.
Radical approach is to return device to "factory state" - hard reset.
If after hard reset you still have a problem with your device like accidentally rebooting, address to service center or ask seller to to replace the good.
regards,
rebooting.
double post.
I had the issue once... card corrupted. Had a back up so formatted the card, put data back in, issue gone.
This has happened to my orbit a couple of times. But I think if I reset by pressing the reset button on the side of the machine it only resets once. Resetting after installing apps for example from the prompt is bad, do it later by pressing the actual button. This seems to work for me but only time will tell.

Try doing a reset using any program or clear storage ( I mean without pressing any button or doing putting the stylus i nthe back of your phone)
so, you can know if your light button is stucked or not

Do you mean that even from the moment you turn on the phone that the screen is in night mode "dark"?
If you need to do a hard reset you dont need a code. Have attached instructions in pic Remove the storage card before you hard-reset.

And how would he do that? He has no lcd as soon as he turns on his device...
You are in need of a new LCD screen.
I ask about IE and MP cause sometimes, when your battery is weak, not as in 25%charged. Just weak as in about to hit the dirty road dead, it might suck up all the juice and turn LCD off to conserve energy.
he doesnt need a new lcd.. seems a hard reset fixed his problem, probably why he hasnt replied.
I am not sure what is going on, my Dash was connecting fine but all of a sudden, it is trying to connect to email and draining the battery in the process. It is also failing to download weather info on the widget on the home screen. Memory is being drained and RAM is loaded down more and more. I cannot connect to MMS anymore (That was the first sign of trouble) and it seems to take forever to go from one part of the home screen to another.
I actually had a similar problem with the previous Dash that I had which culminated in it finally cutting off at random times, especially when connecting to the internet or in a call. I was able to solve the problem when it got bad by doing a hard reset but, you can imagine, I hate going to such an extreme all the time since I have to reinstall everything over and over again!
A couple of questions:
1. Is there a way to save the home screen settings? Especially the Favs and Application settings and restore them when restoring after a hard reset?
2. Can I increase the memory on RAM without having to resort to a hard reset or re-flash?
Thanks in Advance!

there's a couple of backup softwares that you can perform a full or a custom backup of your system , like a computer, it creates an .exe file that you save on your sd card, so when you have to do a hard reset, all you got to do is run your backup file and it installs everything back to how you had it when you created the file. You can search for sprite backup or spb backup.
I think the only way to access more memory on ram is to flash a lite version of a rom.

Or use the PagePool tuner, then you have to sacrifice speed for memory, you would have to modify the .nbh so have to flash again.
Tried the Backup but...
Well, that sounds good but it just restores to the same problems. Is there a way to identify the menu (CHOME) settings, which includes the favs, and still do the hard reset? It is a pain to have to restore everything. At least, after getting everything restored from scratch, I can THEN do a back up so I won't have to go through this again. It seems like this is a common occurrence with Dash/and/or Win 6.1.
As an aside, the weather is not downloading anymore either. Email hangs either Connecting or Disconnecting. I am using Stylez 1.7 Rose (which, other than these problems, I do really like!

Now things have gone south! It won't reboot! Before this, it was saying that there was no RAM, to uninstall a program to solve this problem. Since I had just done a hard reboot, I knew it could not be loaded up with too many programs!
I decided to do a soft reset, using the reboot from the new task manager. I realized that it had started to reboot but was hung up on the HTC Excalibur Energy Star Compliant screen (the new black screen in the NRG Rose rebuild.)
It is still there and I have tried to do a hard reset using the WIKI instructions but still hangs in the same place. I can't get past this screen. I perfectly realize that, should this continue, I am Screwed! HELP! I can't make a connection to reflash even!
Thanks in Advance!
10 pm: I did the hard reset following Stylez instructions, it is still being a pain, I may have to do another hard reset to get things back. I am able to send and receive SMS messages and sync up again, to some extent but things are not as they were yesterday even. Not sure what to make of this.
Okay, this is not much fun, I did a hard reset, installed minimal programs. Now not hitting the internet and it shuts off randomly. I could not get it rebooted for the longest time this morning. Finally just decided to start up and ran all day. Tried to check a web site and it was not connecting. I changed the settings and it just shut itself off. I tried to reboot but, 35 minutes later, still not coming up. It goes through the HTC Screen and vibrates then shuts off. ONCE it go all the way to the new Energy star screen but it shut off after that.
Argggggggggggggggggggggg
I just noticed that the little light is flashing red. It will do that if it actually makes it far enough in the boot up process. I have seen this before, the device is reading the battery as dead or almost dead. Since it had a full charge when it shut down, I am pretty sure that this is misreading the battery. I am trying to take the battery out and reinserting to get it to read the battery correctly. I happen to have an extra battery at home and might use that, or put it on the charger, so I can reboot and reflash the Dash.
A few hours ago i was browsing the xda portal when i found a thread about someone booting win 95 on his HTC Himalaya.... so i found it a little bit interesting so i want to try it out myself..... just few minutes later i googled some info and find out that need to increase my screen resolution by nyditot virtual display software....then i just download the trial version of it and try it on my BA.....however, my device wont pass the tricolor bootscreen(first one that is) and it just freeze there.....so i tried to remove the battery and luckily my device boot normally afterwards...dammit that app...so i go to settings and remove that sh**ty app..after that, i power off my device and put it into the cradle to charge it..my ba lights up as it detect the charging...but i just saw a white screen instead of a display...it shocked me and the first thing that i do was to soft reset it...however, after soft reset,i tried to power off and power on my phone..then the same as before a white screen,,,i also tried setting the screen to blank by using core player options... the screen didn't went blank as if it was powered off...but it seems that i can still see the display like just the backlight is turned out...however touching the screen wont do anyting....i need help asap as i need to use my device to finish my assignments...well the only possible solution that i'm seeing right now is just a hard reset...but i dont want that..recently just got everything working on my BA(wi-fi, mms, psx games,etc that i dont want to lose)help me , please.....

Well, uninstalling nydiots might have messed some drivers up. Sorry to tell you this, but I think that your only option will be hard reset. BTW, I edited your post a bit... watch the language we have kids around the site, you know?
yeah, sorry bout that....i was really upset that time....but now i've found a solution....luckily i dont need to do a hard reset...i reinstall the application again(nothing much to lose...)and realised that in the application folder there was a shortcut named "vd restore"(what else should that mean...)used that and viola, everything was back to normal...then, later, i downloaded nyditot vd the latest version and it worked....just that it was too slow maybe because of the scaling...and titanium wont work...maybe it need it's own cpr....so i want to request anyone here who have it, vga titanium .cpr file please post it for me....will continue to explore what i can do with this application...and btw, thanks mr.egzthunder1 for replying....
Glad everything worked out
