Hard reset then what? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

I am planning to hard reset my phone since Active Synch via bluetooth is just not possible. My laptop only sees a bluetooth modem and refuses to acknowledge the existence of Active Syncn on my phone. I just wanted to know when I hard reset what happens? Will all the softwares I installed disappear? Will I have to re-intall them? Also how do I hard reset the O2 Mini S. Thanks.

Simplest way to speed up and stabilise a standard O2 XDAIIs

Hi,
This has been said elsewhere in this forum but I didnt believe it till I tried it. If you have an XDA IIs that always needs resetting or freezes regularly do what I did - do a hard reset, once the base OS has loaded check the corporate user rather than private user and GET RID OF O2 ACTIVE! Remember a hard reset will wipe all other software and data other than that which is on the storage card - so back up your data.
If you are asked for a code then you could always try 0506 :lol:
Since doing this on my own device - I have not had to reset it once! that used to be a regular thing. TomnTom also now works flawlessly as does the phone. Bluetooth also seems more stable.
Give it a try - well worth it.
Eradicating Resets
I was given the tip of performing a hard reset and when the screen indicates that it is about to load the OS software - switch off the unit!
It certainly stopped me constantly having to perform resets - in fact I have been reset free for about four months now! :lol:

AT&T Tilt will not connect to compter

Good day all.
My 8925 has been working fine, until this morning :-(.
Now, I cannot get it to connect to the computer with the USB cable.
I have tried:
A second USB cable
A soft reset
A Hard Reset
A Hard reset followed by a restore.
I do not get the normal tones when the USB cable is plugged in or unplugged, But I do get a charge light, so I know it is making connection.
I cannot get ActiveSync or Internet Sharing to see the computer from the phone.
Any ideas before I send it in for service.
I have the ATT installed CAB.
Intermittently I get problems with connecting through activesync. Have you tried restarting your computer? Maybe something happened with the windows mobile services.
Try restarting your computer and soft resetting your phone. Once your computer has booted, connect your phone and just give it a minute. I haven't had the time to look into it beyond that. Hopefully that works for you.
i had problems until i connected my USB directly into my computer instead of a hub.
also, maybe try reinstalling active sync.
I am having the same problem, have Dutty's Touchflo Rom on my Tilt. My 8525 connects just fine, but the Tilt does not. I've tried soft reset, hard reset, reinstalled activesync, and nothing seems to work.
Try unchecking Enable advanced network functionality under Start\Settings\Connections\USB To PC

It is not checked, thanks.
Try checking it then
edit: I have had to use this setting in both modes for various ROMs to connect and sync with activesync. If that does not work Hard reset the phone and try both settings again.

Done all that too.
Guess I'll call AT&Ts not so technical dept.
You Ready Heres What happened to me.
First you need a magnyfine glass seriously, looke at the mini usb conector on your tilt. check to see that all of your pins are towards the top of the little plastic conector in the middle. (seems that in the dark while I was doing one of my many soft-resets I accidentaly put the stylus in the usb instead of the reset hole it felt the same becouse the plastic bends and it clicks just like a the reset, then you bend the pins down or towards the middle and they dont contact the inside top of the usb conector) check it out
it took me 3 days many soft and hard reset changing cables until I asked myself, How does that mini usb conector work anyway its still charging whats up?? You guys are gonna laugh but I bet it's the cause of many such problems.
first post little long sorry.
Thanks for the post. I was hoping, but that was nt my issue.
I had a similiar issue when flashing to a different rom. It would connect for a split second and then disconnect from activesync, but still charge the phone. I thought I was screwed until I found a way to reflash without using activesync. I was then able to reflash it back to the ATT rom and haven't had any issues since.
This is what I did (it might work for you). With the usb connected I held down the power button and camera button while doing a soft reset (similiar to how you do a hard reboot). This caused my phone to go into the tri color state for flashing. I then just ran the rom on my PC and it successfully reflashed my Tilt back to the ATT rom.
Regardless I hope you get things sorted out.

I am unsure what you are referring to here. The CD that came with the phone? Or a downloaded program?
How did you get it from the computer to the phone?
Thanks for the reply and I will try it.

no partnership ,activesync usb cable, please help

hi, i tried to connect my tilt to my labtop using usb cable for activesync, some how the window on my labtop shows that no partnership, will some one please help, thanks
Are you using Vista? If so are you using the latest version of Win media device centre (6.1)?
I had this problem. It's a problem of the phone. Only solution for me was doing a hard reset.
hi, i am using window XP, i really dont want to do hard reset, i dont want to loose all the informations , are there any other ways , thanks
It is well-known problem with HTC tytn II series. However, I have similar problem with almost all cooked rom based on att's official rom. tried everything I can think of and any recommended suggestions, still no go. It works very well after initial installation, soon after that, activesync fails. Only hard reset helps.
Anyway, if you knew what you are doing, just flash Q-Mobile's non att tilt rom v1.2. I have no problem so far, but i guess still too early to tell.

Computer does not detect phone.

Hi there, I reset my Tilt to factory settings yesterday and now when I plug it into my computer it does not detect anything.
The phone does charge, so I know that the connection is there.
I've had this problem before but I can't remember what exactly it is that I did to fix it. I've searched the forum and I can't find anything helpful either.
Anyone know what I need to do to fix this?
Thanks!

You should be able to flash using your micro SD.

............but unfortunately you need to initially flash Hardspl thru your PC, from then on everything can be done through the SD card.

Have you tried another cable?
hi, i got this problem tu. i plug in the usb cable, but nothing appeared on my computer.id doesnt say it detected anything (usually it says found new hardware). i tried with several usb cables.still the same. but the phone is charged with all those cables i tried.
Yeah tried it and still got nothing. I am so stuck on what it could be.
I've tried 3 different cables and still have nothing. It worked a couple days ago, but ever since I reformated my phone it stopped working.
I don't understand why my computer doesn't automatically detect it as it did in the past.
reformat it again?
/grasp at straws
My tilt is doing the same thing. 2 days ago I was updating it and when I connected it to the computer nothing happened. Yesterday I tried flashing a new rom, thinking it would wipe it clean and make it connect again, however, it did not work. I am at a loss. Any ideas?
did hard reset and still unable to detect my phone.i'm using G.DK. ROM
i still have the problem
i trized a lot of cables, but from now the computer even don't say that it an unknown plyg is, he simply doesnt detect it. i'm just able to charge my phone, that's it
and in fact i just wanna put the official french rom on it because it's in dutch, i'm bilingual but it's more pleasant to have my phone in my mother language!
tahnks all of you for your help!

Hmmm, this is starting to smell more than fishy with more and more complaints popping up... Just wiped out my laptop thinking it was an update that killed activesync; complete wipe and still no connection; every and any other type of usb cables connect flawlessly from camera, psp, ds, dsi, usb plug in all work no prob; yet kaiser refuses to sync even with new cables before and after activesync updates
Try a different PC if possible. Make sure Active Sync or Mobile Center is installed prior to plugging it in.

I'll add to the pile. Exact same problem. ActiveSync doesn't work, but phone does charge. Various cables used, hard reset done. Haven't yet flashed a new ROM, though. I'm using an HTC official 6.1.
Last successful run of ActiveSync was May 8th. I used System Restore on my PC to pre-date May 8th. Still nothing.
Didn't make any major installations to either the PC (XP SP3) or the Tilt on or around that date. It just...stopped working.
All other functions seemed to work normally, except that I got an alert from QuickGPS that it hadn't been updated since that date. I was able to update that successfully.
Same problem on my fathers tytn II... probably HW prob. Will look into it...

Yep, it's definitely a hardware issue with the Kaisers usb port not fully connecting; I pushed the usb bar in a bit with the back end of the stylus and presto! Connected immediately
I'll also confirm success by the use of a little bit of brute force. Back end of stylus, a little manipulation, connect, and the "ba-DING!" sound in XP. Wish I'd done that before a hard reset...

Anyone who can help with this problem?

Hi all,
Since a week I can't use active sync, or acces my drive (Diamond Touch)
Battery charging as normal, I tried other mini USB cable, 3 computers, reinstalled active sync (4.5) Also tried different ROM's , hard reset. So I thought the connector is broken or something and went to a store where they repair PDA and stuff. The man told me that the connector was fine and his idea was the hardware port is damaged. Anyone who had the same, or maybe something else what can help me.
I guess I need T mobile Rom before I send it back for warrenty.
Thx in advanced...
can you access drive on the computer or on the phone as well?
Did you hard reset and clear storage as well?
Don't forget to put HSPL back as well if your sending it back
Hi thx for the reply, yes i can acces it on the phone, not computer. And yes i got the original from Tmobile( ugly skin!) Got download it with Wifi. so i guess im pretty save for the warranty.
