treo pro troubleshooting start up

cece88 · 06-29-2009, 09:06 PM

My treo pro is not starting up, it doesn't have water damage and its practically new, I mean the phone is loaded on, but then the screen just stays black. The windows 6.0 logo and the palm logo don't even get a chance to pop up. Then the other thing is that when the sceen turns black, in about ten minutes some "mumbo jumbo" appears in writing, it is scrambled. all I see is 'device', 'have', 'unable' and 'to'. Since I flashed it to metro pcs, sprint or palm will not help me. So, What type of issue is this? can it be fixed manually? would I have to discard the phone? PLEASE HEEELP I NEED ANSWERS!!!!

I got the exact same problem, but haven't fix it yet, have you been able to fix it?

I have not flashed one of these devices; however, if you can get to the boot loader screen there is the real possibility of reflashing it back to the stock ROM.

Tnx, for the advice, but how do I do that?

Mine did that a couple weeks ago while I was in the middle of a 6 hour drive to go visit some friends. I had to do a hard reset (power on the device while holding the END [red button] key, or in this case, hold the END key while you're hitting the reset button until the reset screen comes on) and was really angry because I lost all my contacts and I was in the middle of a road trip! I had no way to call the people I was coming to visit!
