on the right side of your device is a little hole.
Your stylus has a pointy end.
Put the pointy end of your stylus into the hole, press softly untill you feel a "click".
Behold, the device reboots.
For future references, its called Resetting a device..

Soft SPL is put to MEMORY, it's not FLASHED.
Rebooting the device will clear the memory.
Thus removing the sSPL.
Try pulling your battery for a few minutes.
Then put it back again and boot the device.

HELP
I Took Out The Battery For 1hr Still The White Screen,help
Took Out Sd Card Took Out Sim ???????????

Press and hold the top left and right sided buttons (Comm + Talk) and hit the reset switch. The screen should turn black, and a request to do a hard format will appear. Press the call button. That should do it

That is the exact same advice I PM-ed him.

yes done all that nothing yet just some white screen always on can hear background noices of the phone ,the leds working like normal

please help i love my wizard its been 3 days now my coldrx turkey is very hard now

That's odd... if he can hear the phone start menu going on... maybe you can do it again (use sSPL to flash another ROM). Maybe that will work?

Could it have something to do with DROPPING HIS PHONE instead of the sSPL?
Because the sSPL isn't flashed as I said many times before, it is in MEMORY, not flash..

new screen
i put the new screen in same white screen tested the screen in mda(pic inclosed) so nothing to do with screen
any more ideas
the screen is fine howcan i switch white screen off

to any one who can help
the more you know.....http://www.mdatweak.com/downloads/Wizard_Service_Manual.pdf

make hard reset and then
contecet with ubs and use the SPL again.
its happend to me and i did what i wrote and its worked....

could you give us more details?
-device (G3/G4)
-what you did (exactly) before you got this white screen.

It is a 8125 (G4) that is unlocked.
I created a ROM from one of the kitchens, and flashed it ... White Screen.

WOO HOO!!! GOT IT!!!
Steps to recovery:
1. Fully charge your phone (VIA Power Cord ... NOT USB)
2. Get the phone to bootloader (three color mode) - by soft resetting and holding the camera button at the same time
2. Connect it to the computer (Windows XP) with a USB cable
3. You will notice "USB" written in a lower corner of the phone (this means it is connected)
4. Download your providers ROM (The "real" rom provided by Cingular/ATT). You can get the one for the 8125 from HTCAmerica here: http://www.htcamerica.net/support/8125/software-downloads.html
5. Stop ActiveSync (from Task Manager)
6. Run the program downloaded in step 4. This will reflash your phone with the ROM. This seems to be the ONLY WAY possible to reload a ROM from BootLoader.
Enjoy!

Problem With Himalaya

My Mobile Screen is blank and is not turning on. It happened by it self, I was not upgrading nor charging. Only thinking I can tell is that when ever I'm charging it is showing RED light instead of Yellow. If I remove the battery and put it on cardle to charge, cardle will show that the battery is Full by GREEN Light.
I hope it can be fixed. Would appreciate if some one can help me ASAP.
Thankx in advance
try softreset
try hardreset
try leaving the batt out for a long time
I tried all that but still same. Neither Soft nor Hard reset or taking the battery out. Nothing on the screen, its blank.
Unfortunely i having the same problem, i suspect the backup battery problem ....
how do we change the backup battery?
can we do it by ourselves/non-professionals?
what type is the backup battery?
Where can we order from?
I am also having the same problem, perhaps someone can shed some light?
thanks,
J.

1. Yes you can change the backup batt by youselves. You'll need to unsolder two contacts from the mainboard
2. Bat. type is Maxell ML2016T17
3. Do not know where to order (here in Russia it to hard to find such type of the backup battery).

But can we be sure that the problem is in the backup battery. Because I have the same problem, I am unable to start my hima, and when I try hard reset or soft reset the screen just lits white and stays white for 15seconds, and if I put it on a craddle, it stays lit for 3 minutes (these are the values I had set in the power management). Other than that, and the yellow led light showing that the hima is charging, I'm unable to do anything at all. I am not even able to clean the registry hive (by pressing camera,record and reset button) nor even enter bootloader mode(d-pad, power button and reset)
Just as I'm typing, the yellow led light in the corner turns green, telling me that my battery is full. And that's it
I'm all ears and eyes guys, thanks,

No this is not a backup battery problem 100%.
Seems that something wrong with the screen and connection of the screen to a motherboard. You can try to disassemble your Hima and check the screen connection.
Some question(s) to identify you problem?
Are you able to create a connection with activesync while hima is in craddle?

I sent my hima to a service repair center to check the soldering on the mainboard. It's not an authorized repair center, as there's none in Macedonia, it's a place for repairing digital cameras and stuff. It's the place where they changed my bottom connector few months ago, so I thought that the problem might be in the connector soldering (something loossened or something) but , I was told yesterday that the hardware seems ok and there's no problem whatsoever with the connectors and the m/b. This is how it all started:
My problem started a week after I upgraded to tofclock's 2k5 2.01wwe, and after altering the shell.exe file and the registry in order to get the clock shown in the title bar instead of the battery indicator. So after couple of days enjoying the 2k5, one morning my phone turned off, and I couldn't power it. I tried soft reset, tried hard reset, nothing. So I thought I should reflash it, but I couldn't enter b/l mode. I try leaving the battery out for some time (couple of hours) and when I place it back, the screen turns on, just a plain white light for about 15 seconds, and then turns off again. If I try hard reset, the screen lights up again (white screen, no image or anything) and after 15 seconds turns off and so on. I noticed that when the screen lights up after hard reset, if I place the hima in the cradle, the white screen stays on for 3 minutes, and this was exactly my settings in the power management(15seconds on battery, 3 mins on craddle), and the led light in the upper right corner is yellow, and after some time, it turns to green, as in battery charged. Active sync doesn't recognize the phone, I can't get serial screen, and nothing other than what I described in this post. I've tried hundreds of times the entire procedure, but nothing still.
Any ideas. Thanks,
J.
Latest news:
After many attempts to enter b/l, I wasn't successful. Now I placed the device in the cradle, the screen turned white as usual, the amber light turned on, and I received a message in the system tray in my pc the a new hardware was detected, and that XP is instaling..... After that, I received a message that the new device is Windows based Mobile Device.
And then, xp created a new LAN, but , it shows a limited or no connectivity.
why is this happening? And what is happening?
the pda show up as shuch if it's ready to receive a rom from the rom upgrade
But still, when I start himaupgradeut_noid.exe I get error 101, connection error
Note that I only get ehite blank screen, and not serial v1.06/usb v1.06, like I had before my last upgrade to 2k5. perhaps the b/l is corrupted or something?
cheers,
J.

8125 stuck on 3 color boot screen

It says only ipl 2.25.0001 and spl 2.25.0001
I try a hard reset, but when it asks me to confirm by pressing SEND, I press SEND and nothing happens.. press any key and nothing happens, just sits there saying press SEND to confirm...
I tried flashing Cingular/AT&T's rom on to it, it was successful on the screen, but after rebooting, just went back into the 3 color screen...
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Additional info
I just wanted to add, I have searched threads here on xda-dev and other sites, and have found similar issues - normally the other issues have been resolved in one way or another involving a hard reset, which my phone will not complete. When it asks me to press send, the phone freezes at that point and does not accept any key entries (except reset). I would really appreciate any input. I also have a theory-that I may attempt this evening-If you hold the camera button down and reset, it brings up the boot loader screen (if my information is correct)... could my problem be caused by a faulty camera button? Maybe internally the button is remaining closed, which could prevent it from doing anything on a reset outside of the boot screen? Any engineers around that may know this? I am going to attempt (hopefully with low heat) to remove the button this evening... possibly even repair or replace it if the phone works with the button removed...(these thoughts are based on my phone being dropped in the sand at the beach...maybe a grain of sand worked it's way into the camera's button housing and is holding the contact closed)
problem's almost fixed
well thanks for no advice... i desoldered and removed the camera button (button 3). powered it on and the phone works. I reprogrammed the camera to button 5. (i also loaded a new WM6 rom and some other stuff) The last time I opened up the phone, I broke the itsy bitsy super micro tiny lock on the keyboard ribbon cable socket... so now my slide out keyboard doesn't work. I installed a full screen keyboard and set it to the messaging button (button 1) - the messaging button still brings up messaging with just a touch, but a long hold brings up a full screen touch keyboard that works fantastically!!! I am going to dismantle the very tiny micro switch and repair it, then resolder it back on the mainboard to make my camera work like it should again...and find a way to get the keyboard ribbon cable to lock into the socket...then my phone will be as good as new!
umm... thanks???
well congratulations on getting it working again.
tiny switch
I have taken the tiny little switch apart without breaking anything... one tiny grain of sand stuck under the button pressing on the switch plate... now i have to find a way to put the little switch back together... then attempt to solder it back onto the board without over heating nearby components. I have been playing around with Byka's cube... took a bit of tweaking to get it to work well.... not sure if I want to keep it or not... I have been trying to find htc cube, but no luck outside of a rom... which I may consider...but I just spent the past week reinstalling all of the software I use... Would like to just design my own windows for my phone if I had the time... Been working on an ion motor for an electric car...
I would like to thank everyone here at xda-dev. for all the information. Could not have learned so much, so quickly, if it weren't for this site.
oh... and I am using an 8125 (G4) with Faria Crossbow
Have the same problem...
Hi!
I have the same problem (but I don't have much tech know how).
It all started when phone got wet (inc. in battery compartment).
My phone would not soft reset beyond the Bootloader, unless I leave the battery out for a few hours. Then once it loads up, after a short amount of usage 2 things happen: 1) every time I would turn it on (or get a call) it starts in Camera (you didn't report it but you must have had the same experience). 2) the buttons don't work properly.
It finally dawned on me the camera button might be stuck, I set the button to "none", and no more more automatic camera. I still need to free the button altogether as still causing button freezeup and also allow soft resets.
I don't know much about soldering.
Any ideas?
Thanks

New streak, start up and it freezes (HELP)

i just got my dell streak and so far when i press the start button i see the dell logo and then the screen just hangs there (black) until i remove the battery. I tried to charge the battery up to full but i since i do not see a battery charging indicator i really dont know what to do with it. help
everything is stock, i dont even know if its GB or not since i havent been able to start it up It's a rogers phone though
Tried a factory reset
Sent from my Dell Streak using xda premium
yeah i tried that. i also went into fastboot and it says on the bottom "default nv checked #2" and i cannot click on the fastboot option. When i press the volume rocker up or down the screen goes dark and then comes back in a little bit saying that the "screen calibration FAILED"
i did however succeed one time in getting the screen calibration to "pass" and then i was able to press the fastboot option. From there i used the DSC installer "flash" exe and it updated the phone. Then after the reboot i was able to see the lock screen but unable to press any buttons.
im figuring
1) the touch screen is defective, hence iam unable to press anything and thus the screen calibration keeps failing
2) the connect to the touch screen is broken or lose and i might need to open'her up to see
3) fack it, ill just tell rogers to send a replacement.
So far ive done step 3 but since its the weekend, i felt like tinkering.

[Q] Semi-Brick : is it the hardware or Software

My tablet is HKC P077A with 8GB ROM, 512 RAM and a 7'' Touch screen (Android 4.0.3). I am having 2 problems
When I switch on the tab, first "HKC" logo comes to screen and then disappears to show "android". This is standard. But after that the thing wont move forward. Just keeps on showing "andriod" with a flashing like thing implying the loading process. But after long wait there is no start screen and nothing changes. It just hangs there....
But if somehow got it to get into normal working(I donno how, but It sometimes boots ok and gets into normal working mode, with home screen and apps and everything). So once I get it right the other problem I am having is that the touch is giving VERY bad response. I have to click at spots multiple times to select that thing. Also the response is very slow. Its like the tablet is hanged. But when I tried connecting a mouse (through OTG) and everything works fine again. Is my touchscreen gone bad..??
I am already done with, reset (from "settings> backup and reset") [I cant find how to do factory reset on this model from "off" state(read below)]
I have tried to get into reset screen by pushing "Power Button+Vol up" button. Then I know the tab gets turned on (I can hear a small white noise from the loudspeaker) but nothing comes to screen. So the "Robot with heart open" is never shown. I also tried using "power button + Volume down", this takes me to a screen written in chinese. Now, I don't know Chinese but from the look and feel, its a troubleshooting window, where I can check weather components of my tablet are working (eg. I click one menu(with difficulty), then the front cam turns on, another menu makes loud sounds from speaker and another flashes many colors in screen etc). I found that most are ok except something called "T" (On the screen, its the last item to the right, is it "touchscreen"??)
So, what can I do to get my tab to work smooth again..? Is the touchpad having trouble..? Need I do any specific troubleshooting..?? Any Ideas on which key combinations to get on to the "factory reset" menu from off state..??
Also can u please specify the key combinations to the tablet factory-reset menu from "off" state.

M5 boot stuck half-way, rest of screen black, shuts off after a min

Hi all,
I got this Xperia M5 that's been giving out warnings about memory being full and I suppose it finally gave in. It only partially boots after like a full minute of showing you those blue waves. When it 'boots' the screen is black and nothing works, except you can see the status bar with just the battery icon, no-SIM icon and the clock.
Weird thing is when the device is powered off, you can press the power button once and it'll display a large battery indicator which shows the percentage normally-- I've seen this go up from 0 to over 90 something incrementally.
But when it's 'on' the way I just described, the battery is always at 0% with a red ! next to it.
Anyway, when it's in this weird half-life mode, you can actually pull down the notification bar normally, and tap stuff as well. Flashlight works, you can see an actual WiFi list (nothing happens when you connect) etc. When you launch stuff through here though, like settings, it won't open anything. It'll make the sound as if it's launched something but the remainder of the screen will still be black.
Using the dedicated camera button, I can access the camera. It works (sort of), meaning you can see the camera display where the screen used to be black. And it immediately says "system process is not responding," so I'm guessing this is a system issue where it can't load basic stuff like the homescreen?
Whatever you do or don't do, it stops responding after a couple minutes and shuts itself off.
Stuff I've already tried:
- Safe mode (volume down + power), just 'boots normally'
- Recovery mode (volume up + power) done that for over two minutes, does nothing or just 'boots normally'
- Hold down the tiny yellow 'off' button under the SIM/SD cover, did nothing.
- Xperia Companion: PC won't recognize the phone either in that zombie state, or when it's off, so I tried 'device cannot be detected', shut phone down, held down volume down button, connected USB still holding down, waited for a while and viola, nothing happened.
It's factory OS, never messed around with it and I don't know the version (could be 5?).
Any ideas?
Guys at this point all I'm wondering is if anyone ever managed to brick a phone that's as semi-responsive as this one, in the history of bricked android phones anywhere.. I mean how could it be bricked when you can (sort of) boot and even open the camera?
you said it boots in download mode?

No I wouldn't say download, it's weird-- there's the status bar at the top and soft navigation keys at the bottom, but the homescreen in between these is black. I tried tapping this black area to see if stuff is there logically but you just can't see them, but there was no interaction, no sound or anything.
I am able to pull down the status bar to reveal the usual buttons and such, like I mentioned before you can turn on the flashlight, click to see a list of available wifis etc. But you can't access settings through here, I mean you tap settings and the main part of the screen is still black.
The only way to get the screen to work is to open the camera through its dedicated button, where the camera display works normally, you can switch cameras etc. Tried accessing the gallery through here but it didn't work.
I just don't wanna buy a new phone when this one doesn't seem bricked at all. If it like didn't respond at all and nothing appeared on the screen I wouldn't think twice before buying the first phone I see on Google.
im afraid that you have to flash stock rom again if you will boot into download/fastboot mode.but your problem seems strange.what was the last thing you have done before phone stuck like this?

Not my phone but it'd been going on about low memory for a while now. I got the PC to recognize it once in that zombie state, so I'll try that with Companion if I can get it to half-boot again. I'll post updates if anything happens.
