Hi all,
On my HTC P4350, the screen is broken. So when i tab with the pen on the screen, nothing happens. The phone works perfectly, so i can do everything with the keys (its just a phone for testing). Now I've reset the phone and now he ask the 'to tab the screen to set up your device'. But i cant tab because the screen is broken.
How can i get over this screen? He asks it every time when i put the phone on...
as far as i know, you really cant.
I suppose you could make a custom rom with wm6 smartphone, but then it starts getting complicated
You can't get past that. When I help customers with their phones, the wing sometimes the screen just stops working for no reason, we do a hard reset and can't get past that part.

Here is my problem, how it happened (I think) is below.
Right now the unit boots up fine, and all of the buttons work well, the only problem is that it is not accepting any sytlus input. When I touch the screen, nothing happens. I can use the buttons to navigate (to an extent) however the touch screen input is dead. The display is fine.
What I have tried:
The other odd thing is that I can no longer hard (cold) boot. I have tried repeatedly and it will only soft boot.
I have tried upgrading to a newer version of WM (5.03.02) which seemed to take fine, however I can't hard boot, so it really didn't completely upgrade.
I have a hard boot software installed on the device, however I cannot seem to figure out a way to access the start menu without the stylus.
I have left the battery off the unit for 3 days, and still wouldn't hard boot.
What I think happened:
I was using 2005 for a few weeks, and it was working fine. I left the unit in my bag for about a week, and the battery drained completely down to the point that I was unable to turn the unit on. I put it in the charger, and it came back to life, however the today screen was not where I keep it, although it was also not quite at the default either (somewhere in between). That was when I noticed the stylus wouldn't work.
My guess is that the input driver got hosed somehow. It is possible that the screen got damaged, but it was in my hard case, and it would be doubtful, but not impossible.
What I need:
Some way to hard boot the phone.
Some way to access the start menu without the stylus
Other suggestions.
Sorry for the long message, I just wanted to get down as much info as possible.
1.12.00
1337.42
5.03.02 (sort of, loaded, but not hard booted)
Thanks
Found a way to hard boot
In case anyone else runs into the same problem I did above. I was able to hard boot with the following method, which did clear up my screen input problem.
Soft reset, then record + media buttons to take me to the format screen. I changed the second two to yes and hit the mail button. It hard booted and seems to be ok so far.
Hi all, noob here. Followed all the reflash instructions as listed above and it all went fine until after installing wizard_love. It installed fine, blue WL loading screen, did the stylus calibrate stuff and the home screen looks fine. If I press start, it takes nearly ten seconds for the drop menu to drop, it will not connect to active sync, I have an exclamation point next to my signal symbol and an X next to my connectivity symbol on the top bar. I cant send nor recieve calls, acces the web etc. A, can this be sorted as I cant now install the t-mobile 2.25 rom, or B, can I go back to when just the button rom was on it, as it was very quick with that on it on its own? Any help appreciated guys.
And more, after realising the backlight wasnt going off, I turned it off and back on. NOW it wont get past the IPL,SPL numbers screen, seems to powerup then a second of black screen, then restart ad infinitum. Im pretty sure its completely broken now and very much doubt its repairable. I'll be amazed if this can be fixed, bearing in mind it wont come on, nor sync to a PC.
Turn your phone off and then hold the camera button while turning it back on. This will bring you to bootloader mode(a 3 colored screen displaying IPL and SPL).
Once you are there, reflash the T-Mobile Official Rom found HERE
This should bring your Wizard back to life again.
Before trying to upgrade again, make sure you read and reread everything about G3 devices so that you know exactly what you are getting yourself into so you don't end up with a very expensive paperweight.
I did that last night before checking the reply, and it works fine now but cheers for the help. I did follow instructions to the letter in the end but just lost confidence half way through, which was unneccesary as it worked fine. Got a right jumble of stuff on it now, WM6, touch-flo, icontacts etc. Is just how I wanted it. Now for emu's!!
I'm stuck at the "Tap the screen to set up your Windows Mobile-based device." The screen on my HTC 8125 has been acting flakey... working sometimes, but mostly not. A friend thought he would help out, and thought hard reseting the device might help. Now I'm stuck at the tap this screen message, only the touch screen isn't working and is not accepting the tapping. Am I completely outta luck without a phone now?? At least before I could make and answer phone calls. Now, NOTHING. Just this screen. IF there is any way around this that anyone knows of, PLEASE let me know!!
Thank you
I think you have a hardware problem
Maybe the flex
maybe the microcontroler
maybe the rom Try a new again instead the one you have
for skip this screen alignment try to search on the forum there are many ways
I simply conect it to activesync even if it is stucked at this screen it syncs with your pc via activesync... then go to explore...Windows folder.... startup... and delete the file called welcome.lnk then softreset.
Yeah my wizard is stuck to @ tab the screen etc.
I can't connect to activesync becuase activesync does not detect the phone.
Nevermind!

1. Do a soft reset. (small hole on the right side)
2. When screen is black hold camera button, this will boot into bootloader
3. Connect USB cable (USB will show over left softkey)
4. Try to flash a new ROM.
I did this process a few times with different roms.. the best I had was using the HardSPL process, and then the NBD_v8.3_8MB rom.
Few hours ago i unlock my phone, there was a problem with radio rom, and my friend recommend to install Kaiser HyperDragon III_WWE version of WM6.1.
I install it, play 5-6 minutes and after this check some delay problem. I make soft restart and after this phone touch screen don't work.
Touch don't response. Made hard restart ... and it's the last think that i did.
At startup i check this "tap the screen to setup your windows devices ....", but as touch screen don't response .. i don't have any progress.
Try to resintall the same WIN6.1 version, but no changes.
Any advice? what's the problem.
Is there any way to fix it ?
sounds like a hardware problem. Most likely the wiring is bad or corroded. You'll need a new screen or you might be able to fix the wiring. I kind've don't like the fact that our kaisers vibrate at startup because you think it would eventually rattle something loose which may have happened in your case. Before getting a new screen though, load a new ROM. To do it without activesync enter the bootloader mode by pressing down the camera and power button at the same time while the phone is off. Then connect your phone and it should say USB after a few minutes. Then flash

Because I had almost same problem like your's...
Try the install HardSPL...
hello guys, i hope someone out there can help me
I got an HTC Touch Diamond from my friend, he gave it to me and told me that it didnt work for several weeks, and that he wants to get rid of it and sold it to me for some bucks.
It never fell down, is in great physical condition etc, so i thought the problem has to be due to the rom/software.
the device behaves really strange.
- Sometimes, when i turn it on, the screen keeps black, but the rom loads, and when it's loaded, it shows the homescreen, but without backlight.
- Sometimes, after this happens, i try to do a hard-reset (voldown, center, reset) but this doesnt work at all! I know how a hard reset works and how it looks like, but it wont work on this device
- Sometimes, everything works well, the device loads his content, the backlight is on and i can flow through the tabs. That's the point when i try to flash the rom. But i cannot manage a proper active-sync connection.
When i plug it on my pc, the device manager appears (vista) and tries to sync etc.
syncing works, but the connection only last for a few minutes (3 to 5) then it shuts the conection down.
also i should say that the light of the keypad behaves very strange too. Sometimes, there is no light at all, even not when the device is off and plugged in for charging. sometimes, all 4 buttons are lighting, but the center is not. and the last case was, that only the phone-button (left down corner) was lighting, screen was black.
I really dont know what to do. I cannot manage to do a hard reset, it just doesnt work. I push the voldown and the center button, then push the reset....but the display doesnt show me what i want to see (the white screen with the warning message...)
Also, when i try to format the internal memory in the options, the phone can't do it, the rom freezes and the touchscreen doesnt work anymore.
Also updating the rom/hardspl and radio wont work right now, because i cant manage to get a connection with my pc that last long enough
Please help guys! :'( Thanks in advance!
I think you can flash the rom from the Internal Storage. Try to search for it on the ROM section. In this way you won't be dependant on the active sync connection. The only problem with this is getting it on your internal storage in the first place. You could disable the active sync and use the other option (device drive or something like that).
hi you should try this... it works for me. the problem is not the same but i think it may work for you to
