Hard Reset Kaiser/AT&T Tile?

I did the search, but not finding anything...Thanks for the help

Not sure what you want... but you can go to Start...Setings....System and choose CLEAR STORAGE and that will give you a hard reset as far as whiping data.

Don't forget about your good friend, WIKI.

I hard reset a TILT that was locked up after installing Blackberry connect to SD card (known issue). Hold down the two soft keys, then use the stylus to press the reset button for a few seconds, then release while still holding in the soft reset buttons. The warning message comes on, and as said earlier, use the green send key to initiate the data wipe.

interestingly, it does not work on my TyTN II.
However, its working on the Trinity.

It worked on my Kaiser/Tytn ll. Thanks!!!

not for me :-(
Hi,
maybe me being stupid, but this procedure does not work for me. Problem is that I installed software for the iGo bluetooth keyboard (I know ...) and ever since the Kaiser is resetting itself every 30 seconds. So what I get is only the smart mobility message, a short vibrate and then back to start. Anyone any idea how to get out of that? May I just press the wrong softkeys?
many thanks in advance

new situation: the keys I press are definitely the right ones, I can also get into bootloader mode. I flashed the original rom (RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship) back which finished successful but the situation is the same. When I hard reset I am told it has been done, being asked to press the green button and it reverts to the old problem immediately. I should say that I have not modded my device so far, it was in original state before I installed the above mentioned software. Could it be a coincidence and it is a hardware problem?
HELP!!!

I found hard-resetting my HTC TyTN "GB" somewhat unpredictable. Holding down both soft keys while depressing the reset buttone is the correct procedure. It's either related to the HTC_END.cab. Do you have this installed?
Cheers

Strange, can't perform a hard reset either, using the softkeys of my TyTn II. No matter how long I press and hold them, no message screen, no option to hard reset.
The only way is to use Clear Storage.

It's in the Kaiser Wiki, under 'Kaiser resets'.

this is what is says...
Hard Reset **NB** This cannot be performed while the device is connected/charging!**
* Press and hold both soft keys
* Using a stylus, press and hold the soft reset button at the bottom of the phone
* Keep all three buttons pressed until the keypad lights turn off and then flash
* Release the soft reset button while still pressing the soft keys
* Let go of the two soft keys once the message "This operation will delete all your personal data, to manufacturer default" appears on screen
* Finally, press the green call button to perform the hard reset, or press other key to cancel
1. what buttons are the soft keys..
2. i pressed the power and the camera buttons then the reset set pinhole button.. release the reset pinhole button after the keypads lights go off still nothing..

Help: Kaiser stuck in some weird RGBW screen... won't boot

Sorry if this has been asked and answered before... a quick search turned up nothing useful - but then I only got this device about a week ago and don't really know what to look for.
I pressed the Soft Reset button with the USB cable attached and the phone seems to have gone into some weird mode and now nothing I do will make it boot.
I'm stuck on a screen with 4 sections, Red, Green, Blue, and White.
The text
KAIS130
SSPL-1.93.0000
CPLD-8
is displayed on the red section, and the letters USB on the white.
I have tried soft reset (always comes back to same screen), hard rest (does nothing), taking the battery out and putting it back. All with and without the cable attached.
Is there anything I can to do restore my device or do I need to return it?
Many thanks for any help.

You may in Bootloader mode. You may have to force a hard reset. I think if you hold the camera button and power button while turning on it should bring it up, but I am not sure on the Kaiser. I am sure someone will post up the exact procedure. I hope everything turns out OK for you.
Kevin

Thanks for the reply... I got the impression that might be the case from a google hit as well. Grrr. I was just trying to cure a 'not syncing' issue.
Alas I can't find anything to make a Hard Reset do anything - I've tried every combo of buttons I can think of, including the one in the manual and the one you just suggested... no dice
Oh well, I guess I have a very expensive paper weight

Press and hold the two action buttons (the - in between red and green buttons) and press reset with the stylus.
keep them pressed for a bit, then release only the reset button

press and hold the two soft key buttons and press reset with the stylus.
keep them pressed for a bit, then release only the reset button
after releasing the reset button hit send ( the green key ) it should show on the screen if you have done it correctly to push the send button to complete the hard reset, if not repeat the process again

if that doesnt work you can always reflash the rom using the original Kaiser rom RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88. 07_1.27.12.11_Ship.exe
its here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331900&highlight=official+kaiser+rom
since its already in the bootloader mode it will be able to be flashed if it wont hard reset

Hmm, nope the Soft+Soft+Reset doesn't do anything other than the normal reset
I think before I try the ROM flash I'd better contact HTC and make sure I'm not voiding my warranty.
It's a shame I'm going to loose the days work
thanks for the help folks.

All hardware keys on my Tytn II have stopped responding (including hard keyboard)

Hi,
Just last friday I got my new Tytn II and yesterday I discovered that the Backspace button on my soft keyboard didn't do anything anymore. All other soft buttons where working fine. Then opening the slider key board and trying the back button it didn't work either. Same goes for all (!) keyboard buttons. Then tried the green and red buttons, the tilt wheel and finally all hard buttons on the device. Only the power on/off button works.
The phone can be operated using the stylus. No problems there . I only installed Tom Tom, Remote Desktop and Google Maps. I am thinking of returning the phone to the shop, but my personal data and settings will be gone I think.
It seems like the driver that triggers hard button functions in windows is missing, broken or just plain ignorant. Anybody any ideas on how to troubleshoot and repair this?
Thanks for the trouble.
Cheers,
Donald

OK - obvious things first, this is either going to be a hardware or a software problem. If it's hardware, you need to return it to the shop as it will still be under warranty. If it's software, we'll be able to fix it with a Hard Reset.
Although a Hard Reset will remove all your settings and personal data, it will put the phone back into the state it was when you bought it. Seeing as the keys worked when you bought it, they should go back to working too!
My advice would be firstly to backup everything you need (contacts, e-mails, etc) onto your PC or your Exchange server. Then press and hold both softkeys and press the reset button with the stylus. Keep the softkeys pressed until you see a white screen warning about doing a reset, then release the softkeys. Press the green pickup button to start the reset, then the green button again when prompted to restart the phone. It will take a while to reboot first time, and then it'll go through the same screens it did when you first opened the box. Re-sync all your contacts/e-mails and you're sorted.
If the phone won't respond to the softkeys when you reset, and instead begins a normal reset, then it's definitely hardware. It could simply be a connector that's come loose, but opening the phone up will invalidate your warranty - so in your case, as it's so new, I'd say return it back to the shop and get a working one.
Good luck.

Perform a Hard Reset. That will rule out and correct any software issues. If it works after that it was the software that was messed up. If it doesn't work after that then its more likely a hardware issue and will need to be exchanged.

Where is "the reset buton" that can be pressed with stylus? I have read that on the XDA-Wiki page too, ...but I can't understand what is "the reset buton" (maybe is the power buton ...but I don't need the stylus for press it )

OK for a soft reset there is a small hole to the left of the usb input on your device. Just simply insert the stylus into that hole and push
For a hard reset hold down both soft keys (first softkey to the right of the green button and the second soft key to the left of the "end" button or red button). At the same time insert the stylus into that little hole and give it a gentle push.
If you actually read wiki there would be a nice diagram there for you.

Oh ...I understand now ... Thank you!

This has happened to me twice. I'm not sure what led to it and I've not been able to reproduce it. I think it's a driver issue. A soft reset fixes it.

this has happened on my wifes tilt/8925......worked fine on the way home then after she got home the green pickup button the end call button the windows button and the ok button have all stopped working. I thought it would be hardware but flashed anyway. remapped a couple of other buttons to bring up dialer.............do you think this may be a connector also.......or something more detrimental?
Thanks

Startup problem

Hey, Just recently I tried to change my windows mobile theme, just the color of the title bars. I do have the kaiser tweak and HTC 5 button homepage thingy. The title bars didn't change right away so I turned the device off and on. Yet when i turned it back on, it freezes on the ATT startup page and displays the three different numbers on the bottom corner, i think they're some kind of IP or radio. Does anyone have any ideas on what is wrong with my phone? I'ved tried taking the sim card and battery out for awhile and attempted to do a hard reset with the two soft keys and reset button, but nothing happens when I hold the buttons. Any help would be great, I need to use my phone!

I'm really surprised that a hard-reset did not restore you to OEM settings...
WHEN you get restored to where you want it... Try: http://rapidshare.com/files/68506785/UI_TWEAK.ZIP
It works awesomely!
It even catalogs all .tsk files and U can export as well.
Best of luck!
trb

just an FYI:
HTC Kaiser - TyTn II - T-Mobile Vario III
A software option is also available. Start> Settings> System> Clear Storage.
Type 1234 in the box and tap YES.
===> OR <===
Press and hold the Left & Right SOFT KEYs and at the same time use the stylus to press the RESET button. Release the stylus but keep pressing the SOFT KEYS until you see the Hard Reset warning screen. Release the SOFT KEYS and then press the LEFT PHONE KEY.
Not from me, credit:

Just to be clear, the soft keys are those two above the keyboard when the device is slid open....? right? Also should the device be powered on when I do this? How long to I have to hold down the buttons? Thanks for all the help!

Thanks I was able to do the hard reset, I didnt know the correct soft keys.

Hard Reset Problem, really driving me crazy.

Hello everyone.
I am new to the whole custom rom and flashing thing, but after some reading and researching I decided to backup my stock rom and flash a custom one.
So I did successfully, to the point when the flash is done and I should do a so called Hard Reset. I've done the hard reset thing before and it worked, but now when I hold the both "silver" couloured buttons and the powerbutton at once the phone vibrates once and start booting.
I just don't know how to proceed with this since my X1 won't go in to Hard reset mode, I have no idea why or what I should do, so please, anyone just give me a hint and make my day.
Sorry if this is a totally useless thread for everyone else and it's just being annoying, but I really need some help here guys and girls.
Thanks in advance / Anton.

You probably just haven't gone through this procedure:

Good luck!

Actually I did, I followed BioVolt's videoguides on every step and when I checked afterwards on the tri color bootloader-screen it said: "KOVS110 SPL-0.72.01iNex" wich indicates that the Hard SPL procedure was successful.
Thanks for the hint tough, problem still not solved...

I had the same problem - what you need to do is NOT hold the power button for long, just for like a second then it should work.

I too faced hardreset problem earlier, then later i found the following procedure holds corrects, atleast for my mobile. What i do is, press both silver buttons at a time and press power button only once and leave it(just press and leave only power button not the silver colored ones)..after few secs it will go to hard reset mode...

Try holding down the volume down button and the power button to go into the bootloader mode. From there, continue with your normal hard reset procedure which is holding down the 2 silver buttons and then press the reset button.

You only need to hold the two soft keys (silver buttons) to get into hard reset mode. if your phone is off, then you only need to tap the power button to turn on the phone, not hold it, but continue to hold the silver keys until you get the grey screen.
Hope that helps

You need to completely shutdown your X1 first before hardreset. I mean COMPLETELY: remove your battery for at least 5s, then attach it and hard rest your device.

Thanks alot guys, actually the problem got solved by now, I treid a method I hadn't heard of before where you hold your two softkeys and under the battery cover give the "stylus hole" a push..
Worked just fine! Thanks alot to everyone bothering to help me, it's thanks to you guys I now have a working X1
Kinds regards / Anton.

the reason why its hard for people to hard reset from when its off is because they're holding the power button as well as the two silver keys!
you just hold the two silver keys and press the power key once, quickly.
keep holding the two silver keys until press R comes up!
