Sorry I wasn't clear. I had to hard reset. I waited and waited and waited, but no go.
This has happened a few times, but I *think* it's tied to soft resetting while the phone is plugged into the usb port on the computer.
Good luck, let us know how you resolve your problem.

I'm having the same issue but on WM5.
I have a rom I cooked up for me and it works great.
I changed it slightly by added fewer programs, and installed it on my wife's phone and a friend's phone, and they both had the WM green screen lock up. My wifes has had it happen 4 times now.

Unfortunately, I only saved the nbf file from the ROM I'm running, so it's going to be a little difficult to see what changes I made to their ROM that is causing it.

All three phones have the HTC Home plugin. Mine has been running for a month.

I still have WM5 installed but I have this problem frequently when I have ext_rom hidden. As soon as unhide it in the reg the problem goes away. - sheureka

TinMan, I've also felt that it happens more when I'm plugged into the USB port when I've soft resetted. Are you running the HTC customization program? I haven't used it lately and I haven't had the problem either when soft reseting.

I'd love to know if this problem is permanently fixed in the WM6 bugs and fixes or in another forum.

I've had it happen with and without being plugged into the USB port on the computer, without HTC (I don't use it), with both WM5 & 6. I'm currently cooking all my ROMs without WeatherPanel, as some have speculated that it's a problem. It's only been 2 days, but so far no green screen lockups. It happened to me 4 or 5 times in a two day period late last week. Usually, before it happens, I soft-reset because the phone is acting squirrelly. After the first time is when I decided to give the WM6 load a try. Seemed nice enough, I reloaded all my apps (included WeatherPanel), and life was good.... for a bit, then it acted up. I reset it and poof... it was stuck. I cooked a new version of my WM5 ROM, and as I said, I had it happen several times after that. The last time was yesterday morning. I was getting ready to drive for a business trip, and was setting up my GPS. The alarm on my phone started going off (for no apparent reason, as i have no alarms set for 8am!), but I couldn't stop it, so I reset it and that was all she wrote. I ended up hard-reseting in the van just to get a working phone again.

I'll post back in a few days if I've had no problems. After a week or so, I'll reinstall WP (I do miss it!) and we'll see what happens.

Im not using any HTC customizations. Like bjhotch I have been using Weatherpanel, but my splash hangs so far are related to being connected via USB and soft resetting...
Hopefully WP isn't the issue! Argh!

It's been happening to me, too. Twice since yesterday, actually.

After last night's hard reset I removed the HTC plugin from the today screen, as was suggested in previous posts.

This morning on the train Opera wouldn't launch, so I did a soft-reset. That was all she wrote. I couldn't get it to boot again until I did a hard reset.

One thing I noticed is that it doesn't always freeze on the green screen. Sometimes it freezes on an error screen that says that Windows Live doesn't have a data connection (I sync my Hotmail account). That error frequently comes up during the boot process, but it usually goes away after around a second.

Another funny thing I noticed this morning is that Pocket Plus' safe boot couldn't even successfully boot the thing. Once the green screen went away the phone would lock up.

Here's my config:
WM6 ROM
Radio v1.41
Today Plugins:
SBSH Pocket Breeze
SPB Pocket Plus
SPB Phone Suite
Voice Command 1.6 (which doesn't announce CID)
ExtROM hidden

i get to waste another afternoon too. wm6, shut off htc home after the last time. i had weatherpanel and o2plus. I'm really starting to think weatherpanel needs to go away. Of course, it's what I use most frequently.

I am having this same issue in WM5. I first had thought it was Windows Live Messenger, but now I got a hang and I havent even installed messenger. I had my phone running for about 4 days now and did a soft reset, and got the hang.
Also, I do not have the HTC home plugin installed.

hard reset, resynced, installed spb pocket plus so I have a safe mode. Phone now only boots into safe mode, normal mode hangs on the win mo screen. awesome.

maybe apple is onto something.
