Hi,
I have a problem:
I played a bit in the bootloader mode ( only in the test area),
got in a test mode which tests all things in the Xda an
restarted it, because I wasn´t interested in the big number of
tests and the XDA didn´t boot. I went back in the bootloader
mode and made tests of the improtant things (RAM, but not
microphone or something like that- they are OK made a hard
restart, but it makes no use. The colorfull screen with the
numbers on the rightened bottom stays hour for hour and nothing
happens.
I´m not very hopefull, but does any of you tricky guys no what
to do??(The situation in short form: I come to the bootloade,
but there´s no way to the "normal mode")
Thx for your solutions
Sebastian

It's not really clear from your post: what happens if you do a
warm reset (big hole) without holding the power button? Is your
power button stuck? (don't laugh: happened here...). What
happens if you cold-reset (small hole)?

Sebastian,
don't worry. Exactly this happend to me yesterday after playing
with test in Bootloader mode.
I haven't found any other solution than to do cold-reset
(hard-reset). After everything works well.

Thank you for your posts.
@ Xda...: I try to tell it second time:
When I press the power button, I get to the multicoloured
screen with the Version numbers on the right bottom.
When I do a reset I come to it as well.
When I do a reset while pressing power button I come to the
bootloader
When I press the battery button and wait for over 60 s the
red-green-blue screen comes back.
@ Radismus:
Thx, but as I descroibed even the cold reset doesn´t help.

Not sure what you mean with "multicoloured screen with the
Version numbers". Could what you see be explained by a stuck
soft reset button? (in the big hole)
Depending on your options with waranty, you could open the case
and examine the microswitch.

Don´t you know this display? It comes always after any reset or
when the battery was discharged.
The first part isred, the second green and the bottom is blue.
On the rightened side there are the Radio and System version
Numbers and usually the XDA makes ding-dong and you are on the
desktop. But that does not happen.
All clear?
Do you think I get problem with the warranty service, when they
see, that I was in the bootloader?(I didn´t open it or
manipulated sth.)
Should I try to overact the system from one XDA to the broken
one (with an SD Card and the bootloader(button "App3")) Do you
think the other XDA goes broke too or it damages the broken one
even more?

You could try flashing a new CE image using the ROM Image Tool.

I neither have Win XP nor a Card adapter.
But do you think I should try it with the other XDA and the
bootloader (app3, write to SD Card) how I described it in my
last post?

Yes you could: just dump the ROM on one device, and load it on
the other. Only works if both devices have bootloaders older
than 5.17...

Do you think the other XDA could go break, to
How big has the SD card to be?
Subject: No, 64 MB
From: XDA developers

No, it can't break the good phone, provided you use it to dump
the ROM only. You need just slightly over 32 MB, so that makes
it a 64 MB card.
