![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Have you tried a soft reset? If that doesn't work do a hard reset. I assume that you backed up your phone before the update. If that doesn't work, you may have to take it to a Verizon Service Center. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | brandon, Question. Will the factory reset revert the ROM? On the Palm OS it doesn't. I had the same issue on my 700P and performed a hard reset and that cleared up the issue but the update remained. |

![]() ![]() | sorry! i was thinking of the zero reset, and now that you bring it up, lou, i don't think it affects the rom at all. i believe you're right, post edited to reflect. |

![]() | i hear you guys talkin about Hard/Soft/Zero Out Resets...and how the Phone Radio will not turn on...i think its a problem with the update...I have a Sprint Treo 700wx...have the same problem...and it happened after it was updated to version 1.14...it still doesnt show it was even updated...but the phone doesnt work... I think it needs to be completely reflashed...the resets wont work...Ive tried them...the unfortunate thing is neither Sprint nor Palm are willing to give me a copy of the original rom to flash onto the thing...
