Hard reset and Imate/o2 setup software?

Happy new year!!! I have a 02 XDA EXEC running I-mate software as i believe it runs better. The 02 software crashed back to the blank screen with Version 1.1 and i reloaded it with the information i found amoungst these threads. A friend of mine just bought the JASJAM and i was wondering can i complete a hard reset on my universal and reload it from his disc. If not can someone 'please' point me into the right direction for the latest version of either 02 or I-Mate running gear. Cheers.

Koomaview: why did you name this thread "Test only, Not For Sale"?
Jabberwockies only fry applejuice on a Thursday!
But anyway, the various versions of O2 software are available on this forum.
Hardreset is achieved by launching the clearstorage app on your phone.
Another method:
"press and hold the backlight (lightbulb) button and use the stylus to press the reset button. Hold the backlight until you get a menu with three options. Use the dpad up button to move from item to item, use the down button to select yes or no. Set Clean Registry and Format Storage to YES and press the middle dpad button to reboot."
Try hardreset first to get factory settings. Factory setting apps should also reinstall themselves. Otherwise, grab the o2 software on the forum or the ftp.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah not sure why i called it that. It came into my head because when i perform a soft reset i get the words 'Test Only, Not For Sale' appear on the first blue i-mate screen. Whats your opinion regarding 02 v's I-Mate? I just want the best or latest running gear before i load my navigation program and flight planning software.

S200 SOS!!!

Hello,
Can someone help please, I’ve overclocked my Qtek S200 (Prophet) to such a speed that my phone is not capable to run on.
The difficulty is, before I have done this I foolishly “Registered” in start-up menu for the overclocking software to run at 288 MHz.
Now when restarting, the phone is reaching a point of Window Mobile and then it’s either stops dead or restarting it self constantly.
I can guess the solution but don't know how to do it I need somehow to stop Overclocking software to be used during a boot up.
Or maybe even a hard-reset. (I did that already but it’ freezes at the point where I can see 3colors on the screen and nothing further. Any suggestions please?

The easyest way is to perform a Hard Reset. Make sure you have the power button, the camera and the comm manager button pressed while reset ing the S200. The other way is to take a look at the startup folder and see if there's a program that is automaticaly launched on startup that changes the speed of the device. The only thing you have to do is delete that entry...
Hope it helps.

RE: SOS
I did try it to do hard reset the way you said, in the end this really helped.
I removed the battery and left it for about an hour. Then plugged my USB cable, done what you normally do on Hard Reset, by pressing Photo button on the side and Comm. Button and pushed the pen. When phone stopped at the point where I could see 3 colours, at the bottom USB text appeared. I re-install new ROM and magic! My phone is back from the dead 

Please Help: New app has killed my orbit

Could anyone offer any advice? I intalled a pocket pc 2003 app on my orbit without realising the consiquences!
System details:
xda orbit
WM6
Meschle - Artemis touch 2.1 WWE
I installed a remote pda control app to the device. It then asked me to do a soft reset,which i did.
Now the phone wont start up. It just hangs at the end of the rotating cube splash screen.
I've tried various resets inc reoving the battery - no joy.
I know you guys and gals know all there is to know about these things so any advice would be great.

i had a similar problem after installing a piece of software. Ended up doing a hard reset (hold down two soft button, and press reset with stylus).
WARNING!!! - YOU WILL LOOSE ALL DATA STORED ON PHONE!!!
anything stored on SIM card or SD card will not be deleted
Hope this helps.

unlock a personal password

I have bought a cingular 8525 smartphone on ebay and the phone has a personal password in order to log on, and I have no clue what the personal password is as well as the person who sold it to me. If you have any idea how to crack the personal password please post the instruction on the forum other wise this phone will stay on my shelf as a display for its entire life.

Hard-reset it, then you can use it.

unlock personal password
What do yo mean hard-reset it ?..... would you mind to be more explicit and that way I know what to do in order to unlock the personal password.
Thanks

Typically, in order to hard reset, you have to hold down BOTH soft keys while you soft reset.
So, hold down both SOFT KEYS and poke the stylus thru the little whole on the side of the phone.

I DONT KNOW UR UNIT...MINE IS XDA IIS...BUT IM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH PASSWORD...IF APPLIED TO MY UNIT...
ABOVE SOLUTION IS APPLICABLE TO WM2003 WHERE ALL DATA IS STORED IN RAM.
BUT HOW ABOUT IN WM6? I HV JUST UPGRADED TO WM6 3DAYS AGO...THEN SUDDENLY...WHEN I TURNED ON MY DEVICE AND ENTER MY PASSWORD...PASSWORD WAS NOT ACCEPTED!!! TRIED TO RESET....NOTHING HAPPENED...TRIED TO FLASH THE ROM AGAIN BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. IS THERE ANY WAY TO GET AROUND? HACK? ETC? PLS HELP. TNK U VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE.
MY UNIT: XDA IIs with wm6 from Helmi

maria_terie: obviously, it's because you seem to always leave "Caps Lock" on, probably while you entered your password as well.

Same happened with my XDA2s but just following the instructions below help me fix the problem, hope it might help you too..
1) Use two fingers to simultaneously press the RECORD and CAMERA buttons of the phone (on the phone's left side). Whilst these two buttons are depressed, use the stylus to click the soft-reset button underneath the phone - keep the two buttons depressed until the boot loader screen appears.
2) This should enable three options on the boot screen. These options allows a YES/NO response. Use the RECORD and CAMERA buttons to navigate between the options, and switch the YES/NO values. Set the following:
1] Enable KITL: NO (this is a debug tracing option which isn't required, except possibly for developers)
2] Format Registry Hive: YES (clears the registry)
3] Format Storage: YES (formats the internal memory: "\" directory, and under "\RamDisk\". Items under any storage card "\Storage Card\" are not formatted).
3) Once these options are set, press the MAIL button (in between today and the Pocket IE button) to confirm these options, and continue with the Registry and Storage format.
4) The device performs the reset, and the Windows CE setup screens (ie. screen alignment etc.) appear. Continue as per a new install...HOPE IT HELPS YOU!

Another question (or 2) PLz

I tried remapping the left soft key when the TF3d is loaded with Advanced config and now when I press the soft key it does nothing but flash. I also tried SK Tools but still it shows camera but does nothing. I don't want to "hard reset" Again...Lol if I can help it so does anyone know what the reg value is and where? One more question is how can I (if possible) lengthen the keyboard lite up time and the time that the icons stay on when TF3d is activated
Thanks...Joe

Search is your friend
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3939348&postcount=4 for the softkeys. There are reg hacks for display timeout, I don't know if they alter the keyboard timeout

Thanks for the reply but it looks like another hard reset to get the softkey working again. I tried what you suggested but still no good. Thank you for your time ...Tj
