I have a sprint HTC Touch, with a Bell ROM...
I turned on Airplane mode, put it into my laptop case and flew to Dulles. Get here and the phone screen wont turn on, so I pull the Batt to reboot it. Now it wont get past the green windows mobile screen...it just sticks there. I have tried removeing that battery a few times, but no luck. On top of that, my connecting flight was canceled and now I am without a phone to try to get a new flight other than what the airline gives me. I tried connecting it to the computer to reload the ROM but Acivesync doesn't even see it as connected.

OK, I just put the volume slide down, pushed the power button and held the center button...didn't work with power on, or power off...what is reset? Your instructions say "then reset". Sorry, I was just smart enough to read the directiosn on here to unlock, flash a new rom, get the weather and GPS working.

the soft reset button

OK, so that is an awesome feat but I did it, held the power button, vol down, center button and pushed the stylus into that hole in the bottom of the phone while it was stuck on the windows mobile screen. The phone just shut off and wouldn't turn back on with the power button unless I pull the battery again. Anything else?

I second what snakehn said. Doing what was said just above does a hard reset.

remember, press and hold camera and power, after that, insert stylus into the soft reset, let go.
