If you can't help people then please don't discourage others to share knowledge. Forums are meant for that. If you don't like the information then don't bother to read.

W-ZERO WS003SH Hard Reset No Start Menu - help

Hello everyone,
I am looking for help for my WS003SH. I did a hard reset yesterday after I was suddenly unable to browse anything on the device - only on the miniSD card.
So I did what some member here explained - hold the Reset button for 15 sec., then press Fn+F+PWR.
So when I started it it was all in Japanese but the Start button and clock and battery indicator etc were missing and the device Windows button doesn't work. The screen is not responding properly, only the keys work; the camera won't start either. So I don't know what to do.
I tried adding the Start Menu and Startup folders via ActiveSync but this idn't help either.
I am thinking of reflashing Windows but unsure about it all. Any help would be most apprecated!
Here's what it looks like now:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Thanks! Problem has been sorted (with your help of course).
It appears I did not properly do the hard reset - the instructions given by SOLIDGOD at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378883 were not exactly correct.
So, for anyone who might need to do a hard reset, here's how to:
1. Open back cover,
2. Remove battery - not entirely, just the connectors,
3. Press reset button,
2. Place battery back - DO NOT release reset button,
3. Hold reset button for 15 seconds,
4. Power up device -- no need to press Fn+F+PWR -- just the Power button.
In order to properly hard reset your device, whatever make it is, it needs power, which you don't have if you take out the battery. Which was what caused my problem with the missing Start menu.
So, enjoy!
Hi cheeseus
I encountered the exactly same problem as you did, and I followed your instructions step by step, but it didn't help. The start menu is still not there, Can you tell me how you solved this in detail? Thank you very much!
Problem solved with the help of Cheeseus, forgot to mention it here.

Defy Buttons Problem

Hello everyone.
I have a really wierd problem with defy's buttons (menu, home, back, search). They stoped working at all.
So for a couple months I have been having strange problems with the buttons. It looked like home button was pushed and app drawer was opening/closing really fast. Reset has helped, but temporary.
And about a week ago the buttons stoped working at all. I tried to flash another ROM (official 2.2), but it didn't help.
And now I don't know what to do. I goggled it, but there is no information about such problem.
If somebody can give an advice, please let me know.
Thanks.
Nobody ? That's sad. XDA was my last hope) Well, I guess I will sell it for parts.
try doing an sbf. if that doesn't work, then there is hardware issue.
edit: dont know if you already did..since you said you flashed an official 2.2 rom..
Don't know if this will work but it won't hurt to try

Download the files and android commander search it up. It's easier than manually using adb commands.
Connect your phone to pc and make sure usb debugging is on
In android commander navigate to system/usr/layout
Then click on push on the toolbar in android commander
Select the files you downloaded then right click on each file that you just added then click on properties
make sure each one looks like this

Maybe this will fix your buttons?
from http://android.site666.info/indextricks.htm :
home key, search button, security lock, power button options: repair them
Some phones do strange things at random: your home and search buttons stop working, your security lock won't load (leaving your data wide open), and if you hit the power button then reboot is your only option, because silent mode and flight mode are missing from the list.
There's nothing wrong with the buttons on your phone, but there's something wrong with the software that controls them.
• Fix: backup your apps and data, reset your phone to factory settings, restore your backups.
Make sure you have a full backup or two and check that the backups work before resetting your phone.

[INFO] Jiayu S3 power up modes to recovery factory etc

Hi
Having just got my hands on the Jiayu S3 it has some similar features to other phones for powering up into factory or recovery mode with some quirks.
Factory Mode
I can not translate myself.

How to get there?
Power off phone
Hold power and volume down
when you feel vibration or see splash screen release power button but keep holding volume down.
Select menu items by volume down
Action your selection by power button
TIP, reboot phone is the last entry in the menu.
RECOVERY MODE
Is achieved by going into a bootloader mode.
this offers a menu with the following menu
Recovery
Fastboot
Normal
Image is fuzzy as its difficult to focus on it.
BEWARE font is tiny and difficult to read without magnify glass!
bootloader menu is about one nineth of the screen height
How to get there?
Power off phone
Hold the power and volume up
when you feel vibration release power button and continue to hold volume up
Select menu items by volume up
Action your selection by volume down
.....YES its not the same as Factory mode
more to follow later when I can take some decent screen shots
LONG PRESS POWER
You may be aware that while in either mode, long press the power button will for some options allow the phone go thru a reboot.
I just tested factory mode second last option, unfortunately it still treats the long press as
action current selection but then shutdowns and reboots
so don't try it on a factory reset unless thats what you want as you risk soft brick
good luck

I have added a long press power option to first post that might assist for some people. YMMV

Hello Guys,
I need help... I was mad because not been able to 1080p or 60fps playback on youtube. I decided to change the ro.build.version release from 4.4.4 to 5.. When I reboot the phone battery was on 1% (it was on 46% before) Then i used the backup of the build.prop and replaced it. Then i reboot the phone. The problem is that now i cannot turn it on. It stays loading with the Jiayu logo. Sorry for my bad english, i speak spanish.
Thank you

Permanent Safe mode on Xperia s

Hi. My sony xperia S is stuck in a permanent Safe mode. Tryed to install different ROMS, pressing different buttons during the start of the device, taking off the battery and etc.
It appears that the phone goes in that mode because of a malfunction in the VOLUME down button (it doesnt work). I dont want to repair it, dont have the money and i use this phone for trying different ROMS.
So here's the question . Is there a way to DISABLE safe mode? It doesnt bother me that the volume down button doesnt work, i want my phone to be ok for daily use.
Thanks for your attention.

I have an idea bro!
From wich I understand if your problem is caused by broken volume key(assume that its keep pressing during boot and force the device in safe mode) maybe you should try to disable it
If you already have root access you may try to browse to /system/usr/keylayout
There are some files with .kl format that map the device keys
In my phone (X Z1) the volume key info is in the Generic.kl
Key 114 and 115

If you put a # before the volume up/down line it will be actually disable the volume key function
Dont know if this gonna help you or not,but you may just want to give it a shot

OK thank you, I translated it with google lens.
The upper button says reboot and the lower button says finish.
What should I press ?
Reboot
You could look for Back option, or Reboot to recovery. Maybe boots to global recovery and you can choose english.
Here's what yandex translate says.
It seems your phone data has already been cleared and you'll need you google account when it reboots to finish setup. Apps from play store will be recovered but your data is lost. Sorry.

If this ever happens again when it hits recovery just hold both vol button and power it will reboot to fastboot
I think you could have just kept pressing back a few times. I have accidentally chosen chinese and just hit back to get the choice menu again
