HTC Tilt Froze

When I downloaded Blackberry onto my AT&T Tilt memory card the phone froze. It will not reset. Always goes back to Green Windows Mobile page. Any ideas? Do you find this valuable?

Blackberry Connect must be installed on the device memory, it even tells you this in the installation instructions (http://www.htc.com/us/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=67&cat=1&dl_id=69"...
At any rate, you can try removing the SD Card and soft reset the device but if that doesnt work, you will have to Hard Reset the device (removed everything you have loaded and done to the device) to try and recover.

If you tried a hard reset, (look in the photo section) for the right buttons and that did not work, which it should have worked if it was done right. Your next step would be to put your phone into bootloader and reflash your rom. Do you find this valuable?

Tried that. What is a bootloader? Where do I find one? How do I reflash rom? Do you find this valuable?

Bootloader/Cold Boot mode allows you to run the ROM update without having to be able to navigate the device.
Download the latest ROM from www.htc.com to a PC.
Connect the device to the PC via USB. Note: Activesync and/or Windows Mobile Device Center will not “see” the device.
Restart the Cold Boot/Bootloader Mode on the device.
AT&T Tilt: If the AT&T Tilt is off, press and hold the camera key and press and release the power button. Follow the on screen steps.
If AT&T Tilt is on, press and hold the camera key and press and release the soft reset button.
AT&T 8525: Press the OK Button (located on the left side of the device) and the Power Button while doing a Soft Reset.
USB should now show in the lower portion of the screen on the device.
Run the ROM Update.

I had the same problem. I tried what browntannis sugested and that did not helped. Finally I had to return the phone to AT&T. Because of that problem I am holding for a new model to replace the Tilt. Do you find this valuable?

You should exchange the phone for a new one. I have 4 Tilts being used in my company. We had various freezing problems while running WM6.0 (1.57) which improved with WM6.0 (1.62). When we loaded WM6.1 that seemed to solve all the freezing problems. I have just upgraded to the Fuze and it works well, except for some Bluetooth/Voice Command conflict problems (which HTC is working on). I wouldn't hesitate to get another Tilt or upgrade to the Fuze. The higher resolution screen on the Fuze is really nice, but the smaller format makes the QWERTY keyboard too small for me. I personally am waiting for the HTC Touch Pro 2 which should arrive in the US in Q3,2009. Unfortunately, I'm hearing it will go to T-Mobile not AT&T. Hopefully AT&T will wake up.
