Yes both Left & Right softkeys together and pres the stylus into the reset holes and hold for a couple of secs. Then follow onscreen instructions.
ya but the screen is a blank black screen so i cant see anything ><
Do what he says, and if you did it well (i.e. didn't fat-finger on other keys than the 2 you need to press) it would NOT load the OS, so you must see the "instructions" appear immediately. Or your screen would be dead.
okay i did that and then it rebooted and i redid the screen calibration and then it did the update afterwards it softreseted automatically and i got stocked. after the bars again black screen appeared. grrrrrr

Go to bootloader screen press and hold camera button and soft reset. Then reflash rom. Make sure you hard reset after flashing; before set up.

Hi everyone,
I was using my nexus one with low battery, and then it shut down.
I went back to car, attached it to the recharger, and pushed power button.
At this point it turned on and a setup similar to first boot appeared (selection of language, date & time, google account)..
Once the setup was completed, I pressed the home button and associated it with Launcher Pro.
At this point a popup message appeared, saying (translated from italian):
"Sorry! Sudden interruption of the application Launcher Pro (process Android.process.acore). Retry.", with a button named "Retry".
- If I press the "Retry" button, the same popup message appears on and on again.
- If I shut the phone down and restart it, it asks for the SIM pin, the unlock pattern, and then the popup message appears again and again..
- I can't access the menu through the button, and I am stuck in this situation!..
- I tried to uninstall Launcher Pro via appbrain about two hours ago, but with no luck..
Any help would be much appreciated..
Thanks!

Assuming you aren't rooted, I just want to let you know you always have the last resort of resetting the phone back to default, so the phone itself is still fine.
With root, you can ADB and remove LauncherPro.
Hi cigar3tte,
I'm not rooted, so I could "reset the phone back to default".
Do you mean reset it to factory default (aka hard reset)?
Note: If I press the menu button at the bottom of the device, nothing happens and the popup keeps showing up
However, the procedure I found for the hard reset is this:
"With the phone shut off, while holding down the volume button on the side of the N1, press the power button briefly while maintaining the volume button pressed in for around 5-10 seconds.
You should be presented with a menu that allows for: Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock. You can release the volume button at this time.
Select Clear storage with the volume button up and down, then press and release the power button to make the selection.
It will ask you to confirm this decision. Press the yes button using the volume up."
Should i proceed so?
Thanks!

Yes, I meant a factory reset. Before doing so, check for any data you might want to save.
As for the method, what you found should work fine. I've never done a hard reset from the default recovery. I've only done it from the phone itself (which you can't access) and custome recovery.
Hi cigar3tte,
I followed your suggestion and did the shut-off-and-on procedure.
After that, I was asked to complete the initial configuration (time, google account, etc). and I am now on the home screeen!
Thank you so much for your help!
For future reference, you would probably have been able to fix this without wiping... turn the phone on, then when the X appears hold the trackball, it should boot in safe mode and you can remove/clear data as needs be.
AuraxTSense ROM - I know someone having this issue, anything they can try short of full wipe?
so all of a sudden my cdma heros touch screen got messed up. I tried restarting the phone and where it used to say android at the boot screen is just a blank screen now. It does restart but i am stuck at my lock screen. If i touch my screen at all it freezes up. I cant even click one dot on the lock screen. I can receive calls but the screens blank and my hard buttons work. Also i cant go into recovery and i tried wiping my storage by holding the home button and back key but when i go through with it, it does not hard reset and all of my settings are still their an i get stuck at lockscreen after restart. can anyone please help me out?
I havent used this phone in a while but, today I turned it on and used it to check for files before i sold it. The phone was just as I had left it, working fine and I got all my files and did a factory reset. It booted up fine and and took me through the normal activation menus. Asking for a wifi connection I hit skip and it just goes back to the beginning of the menus, I connect to wifi and it still goes back to the beginning what ever options i choose it takes me back. I am able to get to the home screen through the lock screen menus but it doesn't work correctly like having no home button. I checked the phone and im on Marshmallow ZVB 1.04. i tried to factory reset again and now i can get all the way through the menus but it still goes back to the beginning and home screen is jacked. Where should i start to fix this?

Hi, I met the weirdest thing I ever have. I have a galaxy camera gc100, It works very well without any problems. Since I decide to lend it to my friend, I did a factory reset. After the factory rest, everything looks fine and the initial setup screen "Select language" appears. BUT, I can not touch anything on the screen. It seems that the touch is simply unresponsive at all until the screen turns off by timeout. And then I tried hard reboot, go to Maintenance boot mode by pressing power and zoom out and did delete cache and factory reset again. But none of them works. This is just weird and I can not find anyone on the Internet having the same issue as me. Other people met unresponsive touch screen and then did hard reset to fix the issue. Mine is entirely opposite. I don't have any problems, but factory/hard reset causing the touch screen is unresponsive at initial setup screen. Do anyone have any clue how I can workaround this issue? Thanks a lot.
