HTC Home Weather not updating/Device not Syncing correctly

[joscha]

Actually- thats not the first step for Hard resetting, its the first step for loading a new ROM. Going into the rainbow and then soft resetting will not actually do anything.

You need to set your phone on a table, and with one hand hold down the two buttons on the face of the phone (red/green) and use the stylus to hit reset. you have to hold everything for a couple seconds.

When you do it right, you will get to a gray screen. If the phone starts booting, do it again because something didnt register.

When you get the gray screen- you will be asked to press enter - thats the button in the middle of the "squircle" -- after that press "green" to hard reset.

The phone will wipe itself and reinstall some things. The first boot take much longer to complete that you are used to- thats normal, just wait it out. The boot time will be back to normal after this one.

So-- back everything up, do the instructions above, and see if that fixes whatever got corrupt on your phone.
