You need to app unlock your phone more.

I had to both

1) install the SurrealNetworks AppUnlock and

2) do the registry edit as follows

HKLM/Security/Policies/Policies

values

00001001 should equal 1

00001005 should equal 40

exit out of reg editor and reboot.

Now you shouldn't even have to re-install power control, it should just work. The app unlocking is setting some permissions somewhere...

Good luck,

Jeff

I have a strong feeling the lockup has nothing to do with the app unlocking...

It happens to me on occasion. All I can do it let it sit at whatever screen it gets stuck at, and it eventually comes around and finishes booting up.

Often times after this happens, once it finishes booting, my storage card will be renames storage card2 and I have to do the whole ":renaming the storage card" routine. Seach here if you're not familiar with that, should it happen once you're booted up again.

So, let it sit. Sometimes it has taken as long as 10 minutes for mine to get "unstuck" - but it always does.

Let us know if it doesn't...

Good luck

Absolutely, you can do a hard reset, or you can boot it up into bootloader (hold camera key while powering up) and reflash with the sstock (or newer) firmware.

If you do wither though, I'm told you should fully cahrge your battery first. Apparently whatever level it's at when you reflash/reset it what it'll think is full. Sounds a little questionable, but better safe than sorry.

But seriously, unless you did something wrong, that red edit should not have caused this. I've not only done it myself on my T-mo SDA, but so have jst about everybody else here...

So, you may want to pull the battery, wait 15 seconds, put it back in, and boot it up again. If it still gets stuck, let it sit again for 10 minutes (no longer is really necessary). If it still doesn't boot. then reflash or reset.

THat's just my advice because iknow what a pain it is to re-customize everything after a hard reset or reflash.

Good luck,

[Guest notaliberal]

What ever happened here?

Did you reset, or did it come back eventually?

Always good to update your threads to close them out... :rolleyes:

Hope everything worked out.

[Guest dallasnights]

YUP

After 2 days figured out how to RESET that was all it took

You click the two Smart KEYS hold em down, then click power key 1 sec and wala

Thanks Everyone

I know this thread is way old, but I'm having the same problem with tornado. Did you ever get it to work after you did the reset?
