I've just tried to uninstall TomTom (v7.9) and the uninstall hung so I had to do a reset using the hard button. Now my TP2 hangs when trying to restart. It is showing the Today screen when it hangs, with PShield in the title bar.
There are two menu options at the bottom: Calendar and SPB Home, but I can't access either as the machine is locked.
Could anyone please advise?
I've now found that it will restart if I remove the SD card, but when I replace it I get the same problem. Does anyone have ideas for figuring out the problem?
I would suggest you backup anything you want to keep with a pc and card reader and format the card. Sounds like something is corrupted on it that WinMo is trying to access on startup.

My SD card jammed for some reason and caused a hard reset of my m2000 as well as total data loss on the card itself.
Now whenever I try to reload some of my medical software back onto the SD card it says "will load software when device next connects" or "error - device not connected"
I have activesync 4.0 and can sync all my contacts etc and the sd card works fine and will take other programs (eg spb weather).
So far I have tried:
1) Deleting the partnership and restarting
2) Another hard reset
3) Reinstalling activesync (yes i did delete all the files manually as well)
4) A hard reset AND reinstalling activesync.
HELP!!

Hi
In the last week or so my SD card has suddenly started disappearing until I soft reset the device. If I remove and reinsert a different card this also does not appear. The only way I have found to resolve the problem is to do a soft reset. It will then be visible for a day until it disappears again.
I haven't been able to narrow it down to a specific application or action.
Has anybody else seen this (or even better know what the problem may be?)
I have had the same problem i found it to be "Spb ToPlay" everytime i used it if i stopped it playing i lost all sound on my XdaIIs and the SD card went missing. removed the plug-in and havent had the problem since...........................do you have this plug-in? if you dont then i have no idea sorry i couldnt help.
I have recently installed spb time but it doesn't conincide with my problems starting. I may try disabling it to see if that makes a difference.
this has happened to me before, but i didnt have anything like you mentioned installed, so it must be a bug or something!!!
I found on my M1000 that the card will not be visible when the battery gets low, most times it gives a message like "the power is too low to support the device"
Happens to me with my O2 XDA IIs. When I contacted O2 about it, guess what their reply was?

"Thank you for choosing O2!
With regards to your query below, you may like to remove your storage card and monitor the device. Please note that O2 Asia has tested with different brands of 256MB SD card and works fine. However, storage card of larger size may not work properly and cause the device to hang. You may also like to test your unit with another storage card to verify. Hope the above information is useful for you. Thank you."

"With regards to your query below, you may like to perform a hard reset and
without restoring back any data back to the phone, try to change the
landscape again and see if the problem still persist.
**To perform a full reset:
Warning: Clearing memory deletes all data and restores the Pocket PC Phone
to its default settings. Programs installed at the factory remain, while
data you have created and programs you have installed are erased.
Before performing the full reset, use ActiveSync to keep a backup of your
Pocket PC Phone data so that if you need to clear memory, you can restore
the data on your Pocket PC Phone.Do not use Xbackup on your device to do
backup for your data.
To perform a full reset on XdaIIs, press and hold the power button, and then
use stylus to press the soft reset button at the same time. After the full
reset, you will be prompt to recalibrate the touch screen.
Hope the information is useful to you. If you have any further enquiries,
please feel free to contact us."
What a load of crap!
The other day my P3300 was somewhat slow and I decided to give it a soft reboot. Ever since it keeps on rebooting. It reaches the phase where you may enter your pincode but when it wants to load the user interface it reboots again.
Sometimes I have luck and after 5 loops or so it finally gets into full WM5.
If I remove the SD card the problem dissappears. So I expect it's the card (which never corrupt(ed/s) on me).
Another option would be it has run out of main memory. I'm a little short on that one. Would it reboot if memory was too low?
I think a hard reset or format of the SD card would solve it but that is the easy way. I want to know the reason so it won't happen again.
HTC P3300 T-mobile Compact III
2GB Sandisk microSD
WM5 and updates original as a danish virgin
I installed the Artemis SD patch
I had this a few times and the only way around it was a hard reset followed by a recovery of the phone from SPB backup.
It always seemed to follow me installing software, but never the same application so I thought it had corrupted something in the startup. You can try booting without the card installed and it should be OK, then you may be able to work out what app ./ reg entry is causing it.
HTH
I rebooted without card and it worked
i put the sd card in my cardreader and defaced some .exe's in my autorun folder (the 2527 folder). Than it worked again. Until... a few days ago it started all over again.
did the same procedure but there was no .exe anymore in the autorun folder.
I dont want to do hard reset. Do you guys have any clue if i can see in the register what it tries to run?
it's defenitely one program doing this. It boots straight into WM5 and is responsive but after let's say 3 seconds BOOM there it reboots again.
Mine did the same, deleted a few folders from the storage card Program Files\ folder, think from memory the progs causing mine to reboot were CE Converter Pro, Pocket Weather & E Wallet Pro, but as already mentioned it can be any number of different programs, I didn't delete any reg entries, just the actual folders on the memory card, it seems to be a common problem I a very serious bug as far as I'm concerned, definitely one that needs addressing.
I have rebooted my Kaiser this morning and it took a while, and than came a message that it cant boot...
The Software i installed before the last reboot was s2p and before that i installed and deinstalled vito sms chat...
Is there a way to fix it without the need of hard reset or can i download files via the bootloader?
thanx SciLor
there may be, but if you're still waiting, it would be quicker to hard reset.
try to get used to it if you haven't already. It only takes me a few minutes now to setup after a hard reset, I keep as much as possible on a memory card, never sync with my PC, use mortscript to auto setup my programs and settings, and keep a copy of all folders on the memory card to copy accross.
I hard reseted it and used the last backup had (18March) ^^
i copy nearly everthing on my card but after the backuo WM5torage doesnt work.... even after reinstalling if i connect it it show the volume but when i click on it it says there is nothing
Hi
While I was updating so many apps at the same time on the market the last two apps stuck at "installing" i tried stopping them but there was no option to do so.. tried to install another app but the install button only turned grey. So I waited till the two app that were stuck disappeared.
When I looked for those two apps they were not in my device and the "install" button shows on their market page (instead of "uninstall" like other installed apps) as they are not actually installed!
The strange thing is that I noticed few apps missing (like angry birds) even though they were not with the apps I recently updated.
Another strange thing is that I cannot uninstall any app it gets stuck at the uninstalling screen (uninstalling from Settings>>Applications)
Tried rebooting, taking the battery off, taking the SD card off, clearing the cache from the recovery menu... but none of those worked!
Any help please?
EDIT: You might want to know that my phone is rooted. Do you guys thing the problem is related to the SD card?
The disk drive does not show in my computer when I connect the usb cable! (I choose Disk Drive not Charge Only on my phone)
I'm about to wipe the memory.. Does any of you have an idea how to solve this? I really don't want to delete everything!
I had to reset to factory settings when I had the same problem.
