Well,

I searched through a lot of threads before breaking down and posting on here. I have not been able to find any posts on the same issue though.

I tried Scott's WM 6.5 beta build when he first put it up, and it loaded fine. It was not the smoothest, but it would run. But every once in a while, when I would reboot, it would hang on the first startup screen that includes the radio version, etc.. I tried removing the SD card, taking out the battery...Nothing works except the following:

1. Reset with stylus 3-20 times.
2 Reset another 3-20 times...but this time do it really fast.
3. Reset another 3-20 times but now do it slow.
4. Take out the battery.
5. Take out the SD card.
6. Repeat steps 1-5.
7. Scratch head.
8. Search online for similar issue while going through steps 1-7.
9. Face East and try steps 1-7.
9. Face North and try steps 1-7.
10. Try to reason with phone.
11. Try to bribe phone to boot.
12. Somewhere between steps 1-11 it boots finally because it feels like it.

I've left the battery out for a while. I've left the SD card out for a while. Sometimes, it will boot on the first go, just to tease me. When I hard reset, it will work for a little while, then start hanging on boot again.

I tried JD's 6.5 ROM recently, and it does the same thing. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks!
