Excalibur (Dash) Stoped working?

Hey,
I was messing around with my Dash last night and I installed the HTC streaming media player and after that the phone was acting weird. Then I had the jogger set to be a JOGGER instead of the volume control. After I did both of them it started to act really weird. The player worked, I was watching one of my youtube videos and it started to act up. So I turned it off and it won't turn back on. I can't seam to get it to work now. I can't get the hard reset to work either. It chargers, but still won't come on. The charging light turns green when its at full charge.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

well try removing the battery and putting it back in... Then hold down the camera (sym) button to the right of the space bar for about 5 seconds and while still holding it down plug it into the usb and upload the official rom the phone came with... The link to the official rom could be found below in my signature... Then once you get the official rom going you can then upgrade to the 6.1 (Ricky's or Kavana's) or to the Rose Rom (NRG's)... if you would like to...
Hope this helps man.
I did that and got a red green blue and white screen. How do I upload the new rom?
Thanks again for the help!

When you are on the tri colour screen, on the computer click the original ROM file.exe and follow the steps.
Hope this helps
I got it! But but after all the install and everything it still won't power on . I think the power button may be broken. Because none of the codes that involve the power button work. I was on a ride and maybe something hit the dash and broke the button. It makes a rattling noise.
Thanks for the help though!
Is there another way to turn it on without the power button?
Come to think of it.... it wouldn't turn off until I installed HTC and it said would you like to reboot and I said yes and the power button didn't do anything... Then after it rebooted then then it was weird and the power button didn't work so I took the battery out... I think it might be a broken power button!
Yep I tested it.... I'm almost sure its the power button. But it keeps saying invailed or missing sim, but my sim is in?
Any ideas??
EDIT.... I got a new Dash haha

Desire won't boot

Any problems with the Desire anyone?
Got mine last night, put my SIM in and charged it for four hours, turned it on and can't get to do anything with it.
I'm on T-Mobile and get a pink circle solid pink trailing off (I,m guessing this maybe chases itself around like the busy cursor in Vista) then it shows the htc splash screen, white background with htc in the middle in green letters, this stays a second then goes off for then the splash screen again for a second then off for two etc., you get the picture. That's all it does, will not turn off you have to take the back off and remove the battery, tried rebooting several times and always the same. I put it back on charge overnight and tried it again this morning and the same, left it on for about twenty minutes to see if it should do this for a while and the phone and screen get quite warm.
Well hacked off!! Can't even take it back 'cos it's Easter Sunday and everywhere is shut!!!
Anyone had similar experiences?
As I can't reset via the phone software I did the phone button one, see below, still with no improvement. Mine is going back tomorrow.
Performing a factory reset using phone buttons
If you cannot turn on your phone or access the phone settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using the buttons on the phone.
With the phone turned off, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then briefly press the POWER button.
Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the VOLUME DOWN button..
Press VOLUME DOWN to select CLEAR STORAGE, and then press POWER.
Press VOLUME UP to start the factory reset.
Cheers.
wow seems odd, usually if ts defective it wouldn't show you the boot screen even. but this looks like a software glitch, somehow, .. but again, if its software than you shouldnt be the only one experiencing that
thanx for sharing, .. , hope you can get a replacement ASAP
Other users seem to be experiencing the same problem, I've had a look on the T-Mobile forums and it's reported there.
Sorted, swiftly replaced this morning, this phone is awesome!

[Q] Stock HOX - bricked by skype?

My phone is totally non-responsive. Pressing the power button is non-responsive, plugging it in to charge does not seem to work; no red charging LED. Won't boot while plugged in.
Here's what happened:
I set two alarms for this morning. One to wake up for a skype call I was supposed to make, and a second to actually get up. I hit snooze when the first alarm went off. I had about 50% battery according to the battery icon in the top right. I decided to make the call anyway and launched skype and started a video call. During the call the alarm went off again and I dismissed it. The video was frozen on the frame when the alarm went off. I backed out of the video on the skype app, and went back to it. The video was now black, and the phone warned me the camera was off. The camera icon in skype showed it was on, but i pressed it anyway, at which point the icon changed to the no-video icon. I selected front camera, the icon remained showing a camera with a red line through it. I still did not have video, my calling partner could not see me anymore either. We finished the call with audio only, about 15 minute total phone time. I pressed the top hardware button to shut off the screen and I went back to sleep waiting for the next alarm. That never came. I woke up and tried to turn on the screen with the hardware button and nothing happened. I believe I saw it flash a green LED notification as I was doing this too, but it never flashed again. I thought maybe I left skype open and the battery died, so I plugged it in. The phone won't start charging, or at least the LED wont show. I tried booting it after it was plugged in five minutes (still no LED) and nothing happens.
I unplugged it and tried holding power and down volume for 30 seconds, then I tried power and up volume, then I tried power and both down and up volume all for more than 30 seconds. No response. (what is the proper hard reset for this phone anyway?) I have since left in unplugged hoping that the battery will completely drain and then I can start using it.
Any ideas in the meantime? this phone will last a week with 50% without using the screen or the processor.

Does your hardware capacitive buttons flash when you press the power button for 10 secs?

No, nothing. I have a fully appreciation for the term "bricked" right now.
I think going back to the store is your best option in this case .... Unfortunately
yea, I think so too. I already emailed customer support.
If you plug the phone into a computer, go to device manager. Does it say QHSUSB_DLOAD anywhere?

So I went out all day and left my phone at home (the shop i bought the phone is on the ground floor of my office building an hour away, I was going to wait till monday to have it looked at there). Got back and plugged it in, was about to try usaff22's suggestion, but the LED started flashing red. after a bit it went solid and the phone turned right on. still no word from HTC, but it is the weekend and all. Maybe Jellybean will fix the root of the problem. Anyway, thanks for the suggestions everyone!

OK so my friend tried to unlock my phone but in the middle of the process the internet got cut and ever since then my phone wont turn on all it will do is go to the HTC white screen and stay there until i hold the power key and the volume down button down then it brings up that page i posted with my original question.... I have tried downloading a bunch of the links off this site but none seem to be the full ones.. or something because it wont let me do anything.... It also wont connect to my computer I have updated drivers and everything but i have the memory card that im going through...
What tool / method did your friend try to use when the internet got cut off?
When it goes to the white screen does it vibrate, how many times does it vibrate?
Edit: as bixscotte said, don't post in multiple threads. Not only does it lead to confusion, it's frowned upon.

I didnt realize the first one posted... So that's why there is 2 posts... Im new to this site and I still need to learn how to use it... So as soon as i figure out how to delete the other add i will. When just pushing the power button it vibrates once and turns on right away to the white screen with green htc Writing....
First we need to make sure your computer recognizes your cell phone.
Search for the fastboot commands to check if there is connectivity.
If not, delete the htc drivers, reboot, install the drivers again or just download the standalone adb drivers which ought to be roaming around xda somewhere.

It meana you have custom recovery installed but because your bootloader relocked, you cannot mount any partition for flashing custom rom.

This is the power button for sure.
I had the same problem, and all I did was to open the screws and clean the contacts with alcohol and clean up the edges with tooth pick and put everything back again. Tried couple of times and that fixed my issue.
Hope that helps. .
