Can't do the hard reset on SX-56, pls help.

I had my original ROM back up to SD yesterday by performing a hard reset (hold on/off key then press the soft-reset button), then successful copy "CE + Boot to SD" to the card. But today, I can't perform the hard reset anymore. When I hold on/off key then press the soft-reset button, there is no option for me to choose, it only look like a soft reset. BTW, I did not neither change, modify or install anything since yesterday.
Anyone has any suggestion? Tks.

hhmmm never knew you could hardreset xda1's that way i believed that you needed to stick the stylus into the small hole on the otherside of the connector as in 1 hole for softreset and 1 hole for hardreset

Yes, the hard reset button on xda 1 is the tiny hole next to headset socket, push once, leave for 1 minute then push once more for fresh factory reboot. This procedure MUST be carried out after flashing phone.

I'm sorry I did call the wrong name for that procedure.
The problem is when I did successful unlock my Siemens SX 56 via ActiveSync by install the Special Edition rom 1.2, I couldn't enter the "bootloader" by hold on/off key then press the soft-reset button. Anyone pls help.

flashed dell x50v (how to fix...?)

Hi,
When performing downgrade from 2005 -> 2003se, I followed onscreen messages, but Axim is black/dead/ dunno what to do to "make him alive again" !?!?!
I searched a bit forums and found out that:
In a few seconds, you'll be prompted to do a hard reset by pressing the power and reset buttons simultaneously. Ignore this message. What you want to do is hit the power, wireless, and reset buttons again.
(http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/08/17/how-to-downgrade-a-dell-axim-x50v-the-hard-way/)
BUT I did power/reset...
Is it possible to fix it not sending it so service?
I still have warranty by Dell, but I am not sure if they will cover that...
I used the following images for downgrade:
WM2003SE_A05_EN_X50v
with this filenames:
WM50_B_A05_X50v_WM2k3SE_EN.nb0
WM50_B_A05_X50v_WM2k3SE_EN_nb0.crc
WM50_K_A05_X50v_WM2k3SE_EN.nb0
WM50_K_A05_X50v_WM2k3SE_EN_nb0.crc
Current version running on Dell was AximX50v_WM5_A01_EN.
Thanks for any help and suggestions...
Regards

fixed it
It's working now...
After taking battery out, inserting it back... putting boot/image on sd card...
This is crucial: combination and timing
1. wifi+power button (pressed - hold them) + reset (quick press/release), in meantime hold wifi+power buttons and release them when loader menu shows!, (WM50_B_A05_X50v_WM2k3SE_EN.nb0)
2. !!!VERY IMPORTANT STEP!!!
A) device tells you to hard reset device (power + reset), DON'T do that!!!
what you need to do here is wifi+power, then quickly press reset button (less than a second) in the meantime button you need to hold buttons (wifi+power) until boot menu appears
3. choose this WM50_K_A05_X50v_WM2k3SE_EN.nb0, confirm it 2 times and wait for round 15min!
4. the result is: alive DELL with 2003se os, test this, 100% success guaranteed!!!
SUN with BIG SMILE appeared to me after DARK clouds
Cheers!

Thanks to Goldwin
A big clap for your clear and useful advice ; I was lost and you saved me.

I can't hard reset either
I have followed all of the directions on the wiki, I have even tried to install another rom and it still will not remove all of the data, it changed the information in the about section of my settings but that's it. I want to change ROMs but it is not working. any ideas?

What version of windows is on your PC?
also try the enter BL which is on most ROMs

Hard Reset
To hard reset you do a soft reset (power + reset)
and before it shows the version numbers at the bottom you have to press Record + Camera & also power (i think) and then you come to an options screen using the record button to go down the list and camera to select you select Yes for option 2 and 3 and then hit the mail button to apply.

Need desperate help with possibly bricked Diamond

Hi all,
Just received my Vodafone-branded Diamond, and I'm afraid I already managed to brick it!
It was equipped with version "1.37.172.3 NLD" so I decided to upgrade it to the latest version.
The installation of OliNex Hard-SPL 1.93 went flawless, but the installation of ROM "RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE-ME_1.93.456.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe" stopped at about 25% with error code 302. The recovery method that came with the package didn't help, every time the upgrade stopped at the same moment.
Since the device is stuck in the bootloader, and I'm left with a non-chargeable battery, I tried the official Vodafone-branded "RUU_Diamond_Vodafone_NL_1.97.172.4_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.44.25.24_1.08.25.08_Ship.exe" ROM. Unfortunately, this upgrade stops at 48% and throws the same 302 error.
Anyone who can tell me what I'm doing wrong, and what I can do to solve all this?
I hope I don't have a brand new, but bricked device on Christmas!
TIA and have a nice day.

Try a hard reset first. If this doesn't help google or search at XDA for MTTY.
This tool can fix your device

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_Stuck_at_bootloader
Try this, maybe will work

Try a Vodafone branded stock rom before mtty.
Regards,
Carty..

He already tried a stock rom....

Potential Solution
Have you looked at the thread titled,
[UPG][TRBL]How-to fix: Update/Flash doesnt work, stops at 0% or 5% (invalid model ID)
It may just be a model ID glitch that can me fixed.
Take a look. It's in this forum in a sticky by cptsunshine.

Thanks all for the help, I'll have a look at your suggestions.
The problem isn't that it stops at 0% or 5%, it stops at random percentages (depending on the ROM I use).
I also see the bootloader (red / green / blue), so it's not dead. I guess it's just that it doesn't pick up a ROM.
Besides, the bootloaders says upgrade ROM code error please try again.
Edit:
A hard reset doesn't seem to work. In the bootloader, when I press "volume down" and "enter" together, and press the "reset button" the screen goes black, but then goes back to the bootloader screen after a sec or 2.
Edit 2:
MTTY doesn't do much either, after executing "boot" the phone is showing me the Vodafone logo and that's it.
For the rest, MTTY shows me the following:
Cmd>boot
InitDisplay: Display_Chip=1
dwDirectNum: 0, dwMatrixNum: 0, dwMicroPNum: 0
Fixed new dwPSImageSize = 0x53E0000

Install Rom via Internal Memory Method
Steps from Suiller:
1. open from your PC the rar or zip archive and extract only the BIG .nbh file
2. rename as DIAMIMG.NBH
3. copy the renamed file into the root dir of your "Storage Card" or "Internal Storage" (the one of 4Gb... NOT to the internal phone memory!)
4. reset your device and within 3 seconds push together the Vol_Down + Back button (the one on the right above the hangup button) and keep pressed until the boot loader appears (the one with the color stripes)
5. soon as you see the bootloader stop to press those poor buttons
6. a very simple gray menu will appear asking you what to do, simple press the power button to perform the ROM/Radio upgrade
7. while the upgrade runs be patient and don't press again the power button, reset the device or play with it until it finishes, when finished a message "UPDATE SUCCESS" will appear, now you can safely reset your device
8. who prefer can perform a hard reset after the fresh cook (soon after reset simply press Vol_Down + Circle button, then when you see another simple gray menu choose Vol_Up to confirm format), even if this has no-sense because internal memory is pre-formatted during flash, but... there is always a but... for some unknown "scientific" reason sometimes an hard-reset can save time & headache
Let me know how it goes.
Make sure you have Net framework 3.5 installed on devices.

Can you please be more specific? Are you telling me how to do a hard reset? I tried as to do a hard reset, but it goes back to the bootloader instead of resetting. USB stick?
Thanks all, much appreciated. A pain this can happen, looking at the fact that I did everything exactly as described in all these flashing manuals.

No mate, I never had problems getting into the 3 color screen. The problem was updating afterwards, which never completed without error code 302.
Anyway, I guess I just fully bricked my device after putting SPL-1.40.OliNex (according to the guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211) on it. The SPL install was succesful, but when booting I'm now not even getting to see the 3 color bootloader. All I see is the Vodafone logo with some version numbers at the bottom, but that's it. It doesn't boot further on, and I can't get a USB-connection.
Edit:
Volume down + reset brought me in the bootloader again, although it's saying SPL-1.93.OliNex.

that i know but as i say in the post that when u do it that way i say u can load new firmware whitout it needs to boot try my friend i have done it 3 times because wrong loading of firmware

u have to only push thoose 2 buttom then it will work because u go to rescue mode

But what will that give me extra? I can access the Hard-SPL 1.93 bootloader (3 color screen), and I can get into USB mode. It's just that the upgrade of both firmwares stop at a certain percentage.
I'm constantly trying to hard reset the device, but after pushing the reset button (with both volumn down + enter pressed down), the device just reboots back into the bootloader and doesn't give me the hard reset warning.

u need to hold them down until it leave the 3 color display an turns into grey

Ok, finally managed to do a hard reset. Afterwards I tried upgrading to the official Vodafone NL 1.97 ROM once more, but it failed at 48% again.
Any ideas what to do? I know have Diamond with Hard-SPL 1.93 (which says upgrade ROM code error) with no working OS.

Ok all, got it finally working again!
Don't ask me why, but flashing the newest Dutty ROM (and the included radio) did work.
Thanks for all your help, and a wonderful evening!

Hi all,
I have a quit similar problem. I've read a lot, but couldn't find an answer to my problem - may bye someone can help me.
I updated my Dimond (OliNex Hard-SPL 1.93, radio 1.09.25.23 and rom dutty V4). When I start my phone most of the time (95% plus) I end up in the color screen - however some time it's starts perfect (without changing anything).
When I get stock in the color screen, I can start the phone with mtty and the command "boot".
What can I do to make my phone always start in the normal way?
Thanks!

i smell a radio issue - last time i was trying to upgrade my radio - ended up with something similar, managed it out like you did - but now you're up - so that's good!!
try some other rom (this time without radio) - i don't think you should have any issues going forward... good luck and have fun!

Really don't know where to put.

First of all - I am a Sprint customer with the Latest Htc Rom -stock
List of problems and actions taken.
Problems
Soft reset reboots with phone in Airplane mode.
When the end key is pushed not long pressed but pushed it puts phone into Airplane mode.
Battery run time is not about half or even less than it was before.
Actions taken
Removed battery for about 10 minutes and tried a hard reset. Got to the screen where you are supposed to hit volumn up to restore to original and well the volumn up button gets pressed but nothing happens. So after waiting for about 15 minutes I do a soft reset to get back to the HTC Sense screen (today screen). I take the phone out of Airplane mode cause from reset. I hit the volumn up button and it works fine. I tap the end key and it puts me back in Airplane mode.
So I reflash stock rom back in that by the way wouldn't go until I unlocked the phone with HardSPL. Apon first reboot it still boots with phone shutting down into Airplane mode. Turn phone back on then turn power off. Take battery out. Replace battery. While holding Talk ad End buttons I tap power on for hard reset. Goes through try colored screen then to the volumn up option screen. I tap volumn up and nothing still happens.
I'm looking at Task 29 but I am worried about the volumn button not working.
Anyone have any ideas on what direction to take. Thank you

Which model is your device? You can find the model number above the barcode that is under your battery. It will be in the form of RHODxxx where "xxx" is a three digit number. From here, I'll be able to help you a bit better once I know which model you are using.

Thank you for the reply. The model# is M8RHOD400. Since my first post I have tried flashing other Roms and I think it was the Sharkie Rom that actually said it could find the end key file. Other than that all the other Roms I tried pretty much do the same. When end key is tapped it shut phone off. Plus the volumn up still doesn't work at the hard reset state. It works normal otherwise but when I try to hard reset it will not go past the first screen that says press vol. up to reset. Thanks again so far.

Ok, so the first thing we need to test for is hardware fault. To do this, you will need to perform a task29 and then flash the latest Sprint ROM. After that, try to see if you have the same problems. Please do not install anything while testing. If it works fine like this, then we will need to do some specific testing on the custom ROMs to narrow down the cause.

Things have changed a bit. Long morning. I tried flashing a few ROMs to see if any would fix it. I know a feeble attempt. Well one went bad and never got past the splash screen when it went to restart. Won't connect to ActiveSync. So I tried reflashing from SD card. and I get to
RHODIMG.nbh
OS -
Press Power button
to start update image
Press VolDn button
to cancel update image
The problem is I press power button and nothing happens. I press any buttons and nothing happens. I pulled the battery and reinstalled it and got the same again. I tried to run Task 29 but how. Won't load. Tried renaming rbh file but got the same results as above. I need a way to hard reset without buttons and its obvious that nothing working outside of windows. I'm lost.

First of all, you should stop trying to update with the SD card. That's the problem you're having, so we need to try something different. Flash it via USB. You don't need an Activesync connection. It just needs to change from SERIAL to USB at the bottom of the bootloader screen. Once that happens, simply run the RUU and it will flash to your device. Do task29 first. Then do the stock Sprint ROM. Task29 cannot be flashed via SD anyway. The NBH file in task29 is a filler file. It's the actual RUU in it that is modified to perform the wipe.
So, let's try this again.
1. Get into the bootloader by holding voldown while turning the device on.
2. Plug it in to a USB port on your PC.
3. Once the text at the bottom of the screen changes from SERIAL to USB, begin running the task29 RUU.
4. Once the progress bar gets to 99% on the task29 flash, hold the voldown button again and await the restart.
5. Once it restarts into the bootloader and the text changes again, begin flashing the latest Sprint ROM.
6. Allow the ROM to boot up all the way and settle down, then give it one soft reset.
7. When it comes back again, go ahead and test it out to see if your problems persist.
8. Report back here with the results, and we'll move on from this step.

Task 29 doesnt seem to working because it reboots back to the last rom. Everything is still there. I really don't think that any of the hardware buttons work outside of working in the OS and at startup. IE volumn works when unit is on or when putting unit into bootloader mode but Volumn button does not work when trying to do a hard reset or a Task 29. Power button turns on unit, turns off unit, puts into bootloader mode, starts hardreset. I have loaded a Custom Rom just because maybe with the X button on the bottom and bigger it might be easier. I'm all ears from here on out. Its seems I need to clear ROM or Cmos without button usage. I don't know if that makes any sense to you but like I said I'm all ears on what to do now. Thanks for the little lesson on flashing without Activesync. Feeling kinda stupid about that one. Thanks for the help so far.

I don't know where you got your task29 utility from, but you cannot run it from SD. It HAS to be used with the RUU that came with it. It is the modified RUU that runs the task29 function. Just to eliminate the confusion, I'm uploading a modified RUU to this post that is very simple to use. Extract it from the archive and follow these instructions.
1. Connect the device (in bootloader) to your PC and wait for USB to show in the bootloader.
2. Run the RhodiumWAdvancedRUU.exe
3. Select the third radio button that says "Perform task29 only."
4. Uncheck the box that says "Restart utility when task29 completed."
5. Hit Next and keep going through it until it flashes.
6. Once the progress bar gets to 99%, hold your voldown button and wait for the reboot.
7. Once you are back into the bootloader, wait for USB to show up on the screen again and then flash the stock ROM.
8. Once the flash is complete, allow it to boot once and settle, then soft reset.
9. Once it restarts, test the problems again.
10. If the problems persist, we can move on from here.
Note: If you want to make sure that the task29 utility worked, feel free to try and boot it after performing the task29 and see how far it gets. If it gets stuck at the bootscreen, then you know it worked. Simply pull the battery, or hit the reset button, and power it back on while holding voldown to return to the bootloader and continue with step 7.

I cannot find the uploaded file that you sent, but also I am not trying to run the Task 29 file from SD card. I'm trying from the comp but like I said, when in any mode other than Windows, I really believe none of the buttons work. Volumn down at 99%. Volumn up on a hardreset. The buttons work to get me into the various mode either from Windows or at startup, but once into the special modes I think I don't get any buttons. That and the fact that the only thing the endkey button does in turn phone on and off but doesnt end anything is peculiar to a person like me. Anyways I didn't get your Task 29 file yet.
Thanks again

That's because I forgot to upload it. Sorry. here it is.
I know you feel that way, but there are a few things we can try. We just need to go step by step to rule things out. Please trust me on this. I'm trying to keep from saying that your phone is having hardware troubles, because I think it is fixable as it is now. We just have a certain order to attack it from.

I do appreciate the help I have always gotten from this site and thank you. The worries that I have are actually getting any buttons to work when doing any work on the phone outside of the windows format. I noticed that at 99% I am to tap the vol. dw button and I don't think thats gonna work. From my desktop computer exsperience that I have I know there is actually 3 modes happening that work in conjunction with one another. CMOS MSDOS and Windows. I don't think its a windows issure and I don't know what else there is in these phones that work, but I will try this program and thank you again. I will let you know where I at with it in a few.

Even if holding voldown doesn't work, you will still be able to boot back into the bootloader. task29 will clear the internal memory of everything. There won't be anything to load, so it will hang on the splash screen if it tries to load. Don't worry. We're going to try everything we can before we call it quits. This is a unique problem, but I think it can be fixed. Like I said, we just have to go in order.

Okay. First of all I'm sorry for the void between your last message and now. Its been a wild week so far. Thanks again for the help so far. With that said and done heres were I am at. I tried your Task 29 software and it did seem to be different at visualy. Possible problem is, is that when it rebooted after following your instructions, it did not go to the tri colored screen but to a blueish looking screen with the words Touch Pro 2 across the center. It almost looked like a splash screen, but never went any farther. So I'm not sure if that was acceptable or not as a proper task 29 but I did go ahead and load the stock rom into it and it went find. After the first reboot it started up with Airplane mode on. I shut it off and turned on the phone again. Everything was okay. You can only assign the phone button and nothing else that I know of so I couldn't see what was assigned to the end key so I pushed it. immediately it stuck the phone back into airplane mode again. Push or I should say tap and it took it out of it. I realize that by default the phone set the long press end key to shut the airplane mode on and off, but I am tapping and only tapping as I always have in the pass. Well so I got the idea of trying a different Rom in hopes that something will program the key to not shut the phone function off everytime I accidently tap the end key, I tried a few and Sharkies seems to surfice for the moment. By tapping the end key only brings up the Comm Manager instead of shutting the phone function down. Funny thing is though is that also was Sharkies default for long press. The problem has become with that now is that it has been just popping up by itself over and over. So I started tapping the end key when it popped up and suddenly it seems that it worked until I realized the the end key doesnt seem to be working at all. It clicks but thats it. So what to do now. Good thing at this time is the fact that I dont have to worry anymore about accidentally tapping the end key.Good chance it could be the button it self. I don't know. What ya think?

On task29, it removes the entire ROM from the device's internal memory. There was nothing to boot up, so it stopped at the splash screen. That's how task29 works.
Well, this allows us to completely remove the possibility of the software's effect on your problem. What is happening is that the device is recognizing a short press as a long press. Since the button commands are interpreted by the SPL, we've got one last thing to try before declaring hardware fault. We'll need to flash the stock SPL, again to see if that clears it up. To do this, I'd ask that you flash the latest stock ROM to your device. After this, you'll need to go back to the CDMA Hard SPL thread and grab the latest stock SPL. Flash that to your device. Then boot it up and see if the problems persist. If it continues to register short presses as long one, then you have a hardware fault. If this fixes it, then you should be able to flash Hard SPL again and load another ROM with no problem.
