I have a, uh, interesting problem. - Treo Forums

I had never let my Treo's battery to die in the grand total of THREE weeks that I had it (working, atleast). But, I found myself spending the night at my boyfriend's, without my charger. I wouldn't be able to get it for another day or so, so I just let the battery go out.I did have my car charger, so I plugged it into my brother's car the next day.
Instead of the usual screen, I got a screen of six rectangular boxes. It was three rows, two boxes in each. They were green, white, and red and the top of the screen said, 0.13 (I think. It's so dead, it won't turn on). Everytime I plug it into a charger or turn it on, it goes to that screen.Anyone have any CLUE what could be wrong with it?

Did you execute a soft reset? Ben

That is a rom bootloader screen. This is a screen that normally shoudnt be up but isnt hard to get to. Just take the basic "soft reset" steps, and then plug your phone in and let it charge.

That should take care of it. It should be ready to go after about three hours or so - take care not to let it get that low again.
