Palm Centro keeps restarting

I just performed a Hotsync operation and my Palm Centro keeps restarting; I guess due to the installation of the software.  How stop the reboot and restore my Centro to its previous state?

You will need to start over again with a Hard Reset, then synchronize with your old username after making a few changes to the name of a special folder on your computer.

On a XP box it to: C:\Program Files\Palm\ your HotSync name account short \Backup.   Name the folder of backup to anything else (for example \Backup_old).

This will allow all the data back on your phone PIM, but none of the third-party software that may be causing the problem.  HotSync is complete, you can start to reinstall the third-party programs one by one, seeking the return of the problem after each installation.

If you have a strong idea about a program that caused the problem, do not install it!

How hard reset a Palm Centro.

Go to http://kb.palm.com and enter "Solution ID" number 45050.

In short:
-hard reset
-Locate the backup under Palm Desktop folder folder
-Rename in backup_old
-synchronization, select old id. This will bring back PIMs (calendar, Contacts, tasks and Memos) but no settings or programs
-Reinstall the applications one by one AFTER having checked that they are compatible with the device target.

  • Palm Centro Bluetooth Sync with Vista 64-bit

    I just got a Palm Centro and went throughout the configuration both the Palm Centro and the PC to see each other.  I created a (COM5) virtual COM port and chose this port as my connection series.

    That's when he stops working.  By pressing the button on the Centro HotSync gives me the following error...

    Cannot start the HotSync operation because the port is in use by another application.

    This port has been created, how can it be used?

    Thank you, John

    Well, I found a solution.  After pairing between the phone and the PC and affect the virtual port, you must restart the computer.  Once I rebooted, the port was available and hot sync phone would be.

    Thank you, JOhn

  • Verizon Palm Centro with data block incoming picture message issue

    My wife & I have Verizon Palm Centro.  We have a data block on the account that we only wanted to fuse our PDA with our phone to carry less devices.  Recently, someone she knew sent him a picture message.  She never received as to be expected since we have a block of data.  BUT now his phone constantly freezes and will not allow her to put it to sleep.  I noticed that when he behaved in this way, there are two icons triangle above the antenna meter chart, which mean the transfer of data (they go gray and then become green and grey).
     
    To try to remedy the situation, I did a soft reset.  One more question.  Did a Hard Reset.  One more question.  She took it to the Verizon store.  They said he had no trouble finding.  Has continued to be a problem.  Then I saw on the Palm site there is an upgrade of the operating system.  Done (which includes some reset hard).  One more question.  The next day, my wife returned to the Verizon store.  This time, they saw the issue.  They said there was nothing they could do, but give him a new phone.  She brings the phone home and same problem.  I then HotSync had to get all its data back on the phone.
     
    Now, I get a little concerned, as it has been 5 days since the beginning of the question.  As this problem happening my wife tells me of the picture message sent him these days ago.  While it's a data connection, I opened the message Centre and there is an icon of mail with arrows to move through it stay at 0%.  When that disappears, the triangle icons disappear from the graph of power antenna.
     
    I call the technical assistance.  The person is very and said we should would never block because someone should only get this phone for data.  I explained that we wanted only to combine devices.  I explained the picture message. blah blah blah.  He then says that it is from a software on the phone.  Takes me through a bunch of read him information.  All the time that he does not believe me that it's something to do with the unrecovered MMS (which we do not want yet).  In any case, it is more than an hour on the phone with the guy.  It had Palm on instant message and at the back of their hand for me.  He then tells me to do a Hard Reset.  I told her that I've already done a lot and it was not the solution.  I had to do because it could it resolve, he said.  I did, and for the next few minutes, it doesn't lock upwards with the icons.  That is why he said it was fixed and it was something we did on the phone.  Then, he wanted to end the call.  As he was not driving, I ended the call.
     
    Well..................  I did a restore complete everything on the phone my wife, starting by a Safe Hotsync for his calendar, list of tasks and addresses.  Then I restored one - by - one all of his requests including its Documents to go files, etc..  It took another hour +.  The phone worked ok for some time and now 1 day later... The same thing is happening again.
     
    Is there a way to stop this madness?  Verizon can't kill what is trying to get out?  Is there something in the Palm that can kill the message?  Any help would be great.

    PS Our phones have the same exact software on them with the same applications, provided with the phone and the modules provided by Verizon/Palm.  We have the same ringtones.  We have the same content of music on our MicroSD cards.  The only thing different is photos we have taken.  My phone doesn't have this problem.  The only difference is that picture stupid someone message.  Hopefully, it's not mine.  Thanks again.

    Thank you very much for the reply.  After that I posted this, I contacted Verizon Technical Support.  It seems that the problem was exactly what I said it was.  There was a picture message which was held by the data block, but still somehow try to get on the phone.  I spent some time with a very competent tech person who took the time to solve the problems with me (and down tell me).  We tried to remove the block to see if the message would come through.  Still problem.  We went through all kinds of things to reprogram and realign the phone to the Verizon network.  Still problem.  Then he looked again and found a setting in the application of message for MMS messages fired automatically.  When I disabled this setting, bam message came (no picture because of the block) and the problem stopped.  I was very pleased with the help and the phone my wife is no problem.

    P.S., while my wife & I have the same contacts this is a manual process to keep the same.  We have different identifiers of Palm.  Our devices are different.  The only reason why I mentioned in my original post how we hae the inforamtion even had to point out that his phone was screwing and mine was not (with essentially the same content).  Once again, thank you.  G

  • Palm Centro

    I confess to being old and outdated technically.  I rely on my Zire31 PDA Palm of to store address, phone #s, mileage to work and record especially, go to my Palm calendar.  My Zire starts acting tempermentally and may crash at any time.  I just found out that the PDA is dinosaurs and so its time for me to replace it with a cell phone.  I think buying the Palm Centro that has USB capability I need for synchronization to work.  Please someone tell me that this new phone will save all my old addresses and keep all my old entries in the calendar of the Zire by downloading this information on Centro?  Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I can't use Outlook at work, but they won't let me not use Palm OS (I don't know why). Thank you

    The answer is Yes.

    You will be able to synchronize your calendar and contact information for the Palm Centro.

  • iPad 2 keeps restarting while loading

    I was given an iPad 2 and said that it might not work, but I thought it was worth a shot. After plugging in it started but the battery was at 1% and after going through the whole upward for a few minutes, she has restarted itself. I thought that the battery must have has just been completely dead after you have not used for some time.

    I had reset and put to update via iTunes and set up as a new iPad. He managed to do throughout the this without turning off despite only be connected to a USB port I found strange.

    Now I got the charger for nearly an hour and the battery is only 3%, but it still keeps restarting and running with battery at 3%.

    Any idea what could happen?

    EDIT: left in DFU mode for a bit and it is always off

    Since it has been restored as new and the problem persists, we guarantee that it is not software partner. If you have tried a different cable and the problem persists, it is more that likely a problem of material and the iPad will have to be repaired or replaced.

    I would say to contact the Apple Support and run a diagnostic on the device because it can be a simple battery problem.

    Hope this helps

    I have a Toshiba PX1267E - 1 32-hard external drive 320 GB which keeps restarting itself whenever I try to copy large files.

    The whole device became unusable as most of the things I want to backup is more than 2 GB in size.
    AI? ve tried it on 2 computers to another brand and the same problems occur, less with one of the other brand but that is strange?

    Someone else had this problem?

    Hi, I just wanted to ask you which files on your external HARD drive? Maybe there is a problem with it?
    Another suggestion is, back up your data to another medium, go to your local dealer where you bought it and try it. If you encounter the error even by your dealer, then let them trade your car.

    It s better to exchange these stuff like external HDD´s because I lost my files (music and film) since my last external drive had a headcrash. :(

  • Satellite M40 - 277 keeps restarting - button / stop?

    I have the problem that the (per hour to enter acient) laptop Satellite M40 277 of mine keeps restarting unpredictibally. Initially I have if it was a problem of overheating, so I used SpeedFan and CPU-Burn a test, but the computer does not restart until the airflow to the bottom is fine (I consider that the entry of the fan on the bottom a design error, but it's something else). Now, if the air flow is a bit stuffy, the laptop stops at about 83 and then it will have difficulty to challenge. Ok.

    However when the laptop is about 63C it restarts sometimes and I feel, it can be a power button is stuck. I have XP installation so that it will always ask before you actually stop, and when I pick up the phone on the side (the plastic box where the power button is integrated in waiting) I often question of the judgment. NP, just click away. But I also feel that the button can get stuck and then the system turns off after 5 seconds of 'holding company' the power button.

    So I just tried to get a quick glance and we should normally be able to remove the keyboard, but this M40 is a challenge. Even after that the keyboard is free, I don't see the actual power button.

    Is there anyway to loook under high elegant green rim the power button? How to open this thing up?

    Hello

    As far as I know this little switch cover is fixed by 6 latches and connected with small flat cable to the motherboard. It just seems but if you don't know how to remove it you can damage these small latches and later you won't be able to fix the new.

    Anyway, if you think that this power button / troubled maybe just make the switch cover replacement may solve the problem.
    What say about it? Try to get the spare part and ask if anyone can exchange it for you.
    Of course, the best thing is to ask for professional help, but it will cool somewhat.

    Another way, do a risk and try to replace one.
    Let me know what you think of this.

    Good bye

  • Satellite L655-1E3 keeps restarting in an infinite loop

    Hello

    It seems that I have installed an update of the BIOS not adapted to my Satellite L655 1E3. Now my laptop is never reach the Windows startup and keeps restarting in all about 3 seconds after the Toshiba screen display.

    What I tried to do is reinstall my Windows with the Windows CD: does not not when starting on the CD/DVD

    I still have access to my data located in the hard drive when I took it out of the laptop and makes a transfer on the other hard drive.

    Can you please help me and suggest me some ideas to do?

    > It seems that I have installed an update of the BIOS not adapted to my Satellite L655 1E3.

    I m wondering how could I know if you would try to update the BIOS to the version that is not compatible, the BIOS update procedure would be interrupted and it is not possible to Flash the ROM module
    That is why I think this might be the case.

    However, you said that you see the Toshiba start screen.
    Question: are you able to access the BIOS of the F2 keys?

    In the case where this is possible, the value of the default BIOS and try to start the machine again.
    Where this is not possible, remove the AC adapter and the battery.
    Press and hold the power button / stop along 30 sec. Then reconnect both sides and try to turn on the unit.

    Your comments and good luck would be appreciated

  • Equium A60 keeps restarting after installation of the graphics driver ATI

    Hello

    Generally, the display driver installation should help. As you know sometimes it is not easy to fix this kind of problem and sometimes is much better recovery procedure.

  • Satellite A305 keeps restarting

    I have a Satellite A305-s6857.
    Windows xp 64 bit vista.

    This is what is happening, please bare with me it gets really confusing. Laughing out loud

    My laptop keeps restarting on its own.
    at first I thought it was overheating - so I downloaded SPECCY and clean the radiator using carbon Spray. CPU temperature average around 60 degrees.

    so after ANOTHER REFORMAT. the computer worked fine, installed all the drivers using the recovery CD. (computer remained without restarting)
    everything worked well. After you have installed all the drivers, I restarted the computer and it came

    "your account has been disabled. Please contact your system administrater' so I went safe mode created an administrator account.
    Another thing to install TOSHIBA came after rrestarting the computer where I would choose an account name and password.
    so after that I got through the process, he went on the desktop.

    After that, he did it again. Computer keeps restarting, sometimes only takes a few seconds, sumtimes lasts 5 minutes.

    RELATED ISSUE: Tuner FM from Toshiba keeps repeatedly installation and restart the computer.
    then I went to msconfig and disabled everything on start up.

    I don't know much about laptops, but in MY OPINION.

    It is a software problem, VISTA/driver problem, if its vista I think it has something to do with the admin default thing, cus when I am connected to this account, that it has not been restarted.
    but when this thing "account disabled" came and I had to use a new user, he did it again.

    AND ALSO: When in safe MODE, the computer does not restart.

    someone please get back to me.

    Thank you
