HELP... Tilt won't hard reset.

I press the power button and camera button while pressing the soft reset button. all I get is a 3 color bar screen that says serial. That's it...
Then I tried to use the clear storage app. I typed in 1234 and clicked yes. nothing happens.
I have htcs home / customier too. and ever since the install I can't fully turn off my phone using the power button.
help please. I just wanted the phone back to default. Not bloatware free.
wrong key combination dude, hard reset is the two soft keys, and then the soft reset button
Push and hold the two soft-keys, then HOLD soft reset until screen changes. It may take a couple attempts...
You're not kidding!!
I tried, same result.. tried again, and again... after about 12 tries it finally worked. Man what a PITA!!
Just persevere!
Luck

Need some help ASAP

I was getting ready to flash a new ROM on my Tilt. I thought I had read that you hold the phone key while powering on the phone to do this. When it came up SPL1.0.0liPof was running. Now I cannot power down the phone nor can I find the way to have SPL shut down and reboot.
What do I do???
do a softreset using your stylus and the little hole next to the USB port at the same time
Thanks much. I wanted to experience a hard reset before installing the ROM and ended up in SPL instead.
Well then you did something wrong
To Hard Reset Press and Hold the two Soft Keys "-" and then press your stylus into your Reset Hole.
To Get into Bootloader "SPL" Press in the Camera Button and put your stylus into the Reset Hole.

Hard Reset
Switch the device off. Press and hold the "Volume Down Key" and "Action Button" (round button), at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the back of your device.

Diamond don't start

Help me,
my diamond does not start.
After updating the rom (1.93) it was started normally.
After a few hours was switched off and don't start.
The battery is charged, i tried a soft and hard reset but the phone don't start.
Some suggestions?
thank's and sorry for my english
Dave
Have you ever flashed the HARDSPL? if already, hold volume down key and power key, press the reset button, see if can get into boot loader.
open the back, take the battery out for 10 seconds, put it back in & it should start up.
good luck!
You can try all these:
Reflash ROM and Hard SPL
Hard reset.
Soft Reset
Luck
not enter in bootloader...
soft reset don't work...
hard reset don't work (the phone is off, to perform a hard reset the phone must switched on?)
Any luck resolving this problem?
I can't power up either, hard and soft reset dont work as no power. Battery is fully charged (when plugged in doesn't charge, but I get 3.9V of the battery).
I have almost the same problem, except it looks like device is charging (the ring is flashing). Any ideas?

diamond doesn't hard reset, please help

hi all, my first ever post in this forum. first of all many thanks for being here.
I was reading too many threads about the diamond. mainly about hard reset problems and new roms. my problem is that I couldn't perform hard reset. searched over the forum, tried what others did, just no result, what I am getting is only soft reset.
the method is:
use reset button while holding volume down & enter buttons , release the reset and keep holding others until the information window appears on the screen... somebody says power button also needed to be hold. somebody suggest holding the enter button very carrefully as it is very easy to activate direction buttons. somebody says rom is need to be updated as existing rom can be corrupted.
I tried all of above, I did update the rom several times and checked if hard reset is working, no result.
my tricolor screen says :
DIAM100 MGF 64M
SPL-1.24.Hard
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x32
I've 1.37.405.1 and radio rom 1.00.25.03 now, I know they are older versions but I tried 1.96. series too but did not throw in another hspl.
is it worth to try flashing with newer hard-spl such as 1.93 and compatible roms. any suggestion is very appreciated. I just wory about it coz read in many threads it is good to perform a hard reset after a new rom.
ps:assuming if it is cannot be changed, any software to perform hard reset? sow somewhere video of it, any help?
thanks for reading

thanks for post but link doesn't work. I assume there is just explaination of normal hard reset method which I tried several times already.
Hi
cant open the above link to confirm if the same as what method i use, press and hold volume down and enter and the reset and release all upon tri colour
i must remove the SIM to get a hardreset.
with inseted SIM the procedure not works on my device (why ever? no idea!)
Just to further clarify:
If you have the CDMA version (like I), you must hold down power button + volume down + enter button at same time. Press the reset button with your third hand and continue holding the buttons until a screen prompts you for a reset. Volume up button will confirm the hard reset.
That's what I had to do and I would love to meet the engineer behind that crazy combination... I had to prop the stylus in a 3 ring binder while holding the three buttons so i could jab the back of the phone into the stylus while my other two hands were preoccupied with this stupid combo.
Arg. Hope this helps

this is not the hard reset. I got the tricolor screen by holding volume down + reset button. for hard reset there must be a window asking your approval if you are confirming hard reset, than pressing volume up is performing it.
while holding volume down + enter and resetting is resulting soft reset only. I tried many times as if I am mistakenly pressing other buttons but not... any help?
edit:with sim or without it didn't make any difference. however, I tried the last method whitesoxxx suggest but didn't hold the reset as I hold the others, will give result in a minute. by the way my device is from orange, is it CDMA (sorry if it sound soo stupid
result:nope, didn't make many difference, still soft reset. one more question: this reset confirmation window, how many second later it suppose to appear?
thanks
my last post might point you in right direction...

It is an incredibly stupid combo! I had to search xda-developers to figure it out the first time because i just didn't believe the user manual!
For me, it works easiest with the diamond face down on the edge of a desk and supported against a heavy object (shelving unit) so that the Vol Down & Enter combo can be done one handed. I then have a hand free to press reset, which is easy with the back cover off!
beleive me i have no any complain about how difficult to reach ald hold all those buttons at same time, I am quite use to it
I sent back the diamond today as hard reset problem was really annoying. I tought mine was defected somehow. will buy another, if next one does the same should I send it back again? is it really necessary to do hard reset after updating rom?
thanks

Very easy way to Hard reset the phone is by going to phone settings and select "Clear Storage" and enter 1234 click ok. (This is erase all the data and installed programs and will get the factory settings)
