What operating system? Android?

The Display Pixels may have died do you have any warranty on the Phone?

Although it says XP, you should be able to do the same with Win7


I don't think this will control the phone though, only allow it to sync with your compture.

here is the latest activeSync version if you don't have it: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/activesync-download.mspx

Windows Mobile. I tried installing Android with no luck. but the prob was present before I tried to flash,(which i didnt do).

TY I have active sync. It lets me modify the files , music, folders, but what i am trying to do is see the Mobile phones screen on my desktop......if its possible

No warranty

What can I do with it...if i cant get it to work.

It still works but the LCD doesnt, I can hear the volume go down, the beeps and watnot. WHat can i do with it? besides sit on it or stare at it hoping it will go back to how it once was...

 

[heaumanepunk]

What operating system? Android?

I thought maybe the rom is the prob or something in the phone that can be fixed with a hard reset, but it wont reset....I tried installing android, but could unlock it...

IDK wat it is....very frustrating.
Before it completely stopped working it would go dark black screen but a simple push of the reset button would do it now it wont come out of that screen...

It charges and everything though...

If you can't do anything else with it and you think the screen is bad, you can get a replacement screen and DIY:



Replacement LCD screen can be purchased here: LCD Screen Display Replacement for HTC Touch Pro - DinoDirect.com and elsewhere. see what part you need exactly. There are also phone repair tools in the video you will need.
