anyone know how
urgent need help
Read the "Microsoft Windows Mobile Version 5.0 I can share" topic. There is a method to hardreser WM2005.
WM2005 Hard Reset
WM2005 Hard Reset
Press power putton
Then press Record Button
Then Press Camera Button
Then with Stylus press Reset Button
Use the recorder button and the camera butoon to scroll and change values.
After this you will see 3 options(no backlight).
1 Kit = YES ------------------ change this to NO
2 Register Hive= No ---------should remain NO
3 Storage = No --------------change this to YES
after this press the big round button between the call and call end buttons to SAVE. Device Restart, then wait.
You have successfully hard reset your PPC.
Re: WM2005 Hard Reset
I'll explain this menu.
1. Enables the debugging mode of WM2005. I have not played with that, it needs PlatformBuilder to be installed on PC.
2. Clears the registry hives to their default values. I have not tested that, but it should work like hardreset but will keep all modified files.
3. Format the storage. This would also reset the registry because it is contained on storage. Similar to hardreset in previous OSes.
It is rather difficult to press all these buttons without someone's help.
easy
easy... :roll:
:arrow: put the xdall in the table, insert the stylus in reset sw then make your belly or your stomach or whatever to support/push it,
:arrow: left hand hold the on/off sw and record sw
:arrow: and right hand thumb pressing the camera sw and the same time hold or support the device
:arrow: then push it all and count to ten....
hahahaha...just like you are going to acrobatic position.
But i did that.
Friends,
I've just joined the forum. My HTC touch has just been locked itself and I can't unlock it because I didn't set a password. I still can receive calls but can't make calls, the screen is password screen, nothing else. I can't shut it down without removing the battery.
I tried PIN, PUK, IMEI, 0000, 1234, etc but didn't work. I tried soft reset but didn't help. Tried hard reset but it didn't reset. I tried the SIM card in other phones, it works, thus, the problem is the device.
Any help will be appreciated...

You want to double check about that hard reset. I think you've probably only done a soft reset. A hard reset will reset the machine back and wipe off ALL your data and settings, including the password.
The front screen password of which you are referring to NOT any of the ones you have listed, but instead it is something you would have set when setting up the device.
Have a try with some of your usual passwords
I have tried hard reset (pushing green and red buttons at the same time pushing the reset button with its own pen) but, didn't reset (since there appeared no message on the screen like "the data will be lost"). I think those two buttons are not functional because of password. Every time I tried hard reset it has done the soft one.
thanks anyway

I'd suggest you query this in the HTC Touch forum rather than the General Forum for everything, as they have more intimate knowledge to help you
Hi there, my HTC touch just did the same today. I never set a password.
I contacted my IT guy and he mentioned the following:
Try number 1 once, and then tap unlock.
WORKED BRILLIANTLY!!
The HTC Touch does that all the time.
All you need to do is hold down the Send and End Call buttons down firmly and push the stylus up in the little hole near the usb port (Reset Button) and wait till the screen says that the phone is going to format and all data will be lost press the soft key to continue. Then when it says that press the center button and it will show Fat formatting and Rom formatting. This will erase all data on your touch so make sure you back up.
After turn on the phone and go through the set up and it should be perfectly ok.
You can do this for two reasons.
1. To reset the phone locks.
2. To repair the touch screen if it stops working.
Hope this helps. Enjoy
Dotybizz, I guess the O/P wanted a way to recover without wiping his data. However, due to the security reasons I'm sure you know about often that isn't a suitable option.
Not working

solve = hard reset
for hard reset press volume down button + center button + red reset button
A Hard Reset restores the device to its default settings - the way it was when you first purchased it and turned it on. Any programs you installed, data you entered, and settings you customized on the device will be lost. Only Windows Mobile software and other pre-installed programs will remain.
There are 2 ways to perform a Hard Reset on this device:
Menu path
* 1. From the Today Screen, go to Start>Settings.Select the System Tab and then tap on Clear Storage.
* 2. Enter in the password provided on the display of the device (should be 1234) and tap Yes.
* 3. The device will begin the Master Reset Process.
Keystroke Method
* 1. Power the device off.
* 2. Press and hold the Volume Down and Center Navigation Button at same time, do not release.
* 3. Press Power button and hold for a 3 count (quickly - say one thousand one, one thousand two, one thousand three). 1-2 seconds is too short, 4-5 seconds is too long.
* 4. The screen will instantly show the text to hard reset (this is a white screen with Blue text that provides the next steps to complete the Hard Reset. If you do not get this screen, power the device off and try again).
* o Warning! Your device will be set back to factory default settings. Please ensure any additional installed programs and/or user data is backed up before proceeding.

So both of you guys/girls are posting on a thread that has no had any activity on almost a year, eh?
my fd got a i780 in hong kong and try to put in chinese rom failed.anyone knows how to do hard reset with it?
and any rom with wm6.1 eng for i780 ?
Spoke to Samsung today .... and it would appear that the rumours are true and that no -one including Samsung know how to perform hard reset !!
They also confirmed they would not be able to flash update the ROM to UK version for me .... GREAT !!!
I have located a friendly forum member who has a UK working version and is happy to dump the ROM .... but we don't know how to ....
Can anyone help in a step by step approach to dumping ROM and then creating a flashable version I can use?
Any help from anyone Really gratefully received ....
This is too bad.....has anyone tried using a program for Safemode on this ppc?.....perhaps thats the only way to perform a hardreset for those that are stuck on the welcome screen.....because the safemode will kick in when the ppc detects resets in a loop and then thats when you're able to enter the ppc in safemode just like a normal pc......i guess from here you can either uninstall the program that was incompatible or go through start-setting etc etc-hard reset option......anyone here cares to try this and let us know which safemode program they are using and if it works?.....thanks
You can Install RealVGA, and then also the Language Pack.
So you can change the Language of your i780.

No emergency mode does not give hard reset, it seems to be used for downloading ROM to flash using in OS Upgrade............

Didn't work for me.
I had an idea... Use AEBPlus. Find the software app that does the hard reset and map it to a key combination in AEBPlus. Even is the screen does not work, if you know the password (usually 1234, enter) then this might work as a backup fix until another way is found.

Saw this in PPCSG Forums, maybe you could try this...
"Can someone try if the below steps can cold reset the I780???
1. Remove the storage card from the device, if one is
present.
2. With phone powered off:
Press and hold both the left and right softkeys.
While both softkeys are held down, press and
hold until the unit powers on.
3. As the device begins to power on, release both
softkeys.
Note Once the phone powers on, you should see an
onscreen alert message (a white screen with blue text).
If you do not see this screen, let the device power up
normally, turn it off again, and then repeat steps 2 and
4. Immediately after the alert screen appears, press
the left softkey.
5. If the reset was successful, the device displays a
pop-up message stating the device is currently
reformatting. This process can take several
minutes. Allow the process to finish without
interruption."

Hi. I have a problem with Touch Pro 2. There is stock rom, never updated. But system is behaving very bad. Even touch works only when it wants (maybe physical damage, but I want to have new WM). But installation stops at 1% and phone reboots. Problem is that I have set a password on WM. There is a problem with touch in menu, so I can't remove it. May that be the problem that this secure makes flashing even stock roms impossible? I have no free SD, so only flash via RUU.

Have you tried a hard reset? I believe it's called "Clear Storage" from settings.
Or hold talk/send + power + vol down while the device is OFF.
I can't clear storage because touch is broken in menu. That's why I want to reinstall it.

But it doesn't work. It boots into bootloader. Does it work for you?

2. This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. Press Vol Up to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel.
3. Release the VOLUME DOWN, TALK/SEND, and END/POWER buttons.
4. Press the VOLUME UP button to restore the operating system to the factory default configuration, press the VOLUME DOWN button to restore the factory default configuration and remove any operator customization, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
