Panic Mode

OK.. my wifi card was not working, no blinking light, so I exchanged it at BB. Got home put in the new one and the screen froze so I did a very hard reboot and the screen did not change. So I did another and now the NX60 is stuck in perpetual reboot... it will not recognize the screen press to get it going... anyone have this happen before?

I hate to bring this up, but the hold switch?

Also it's is a remote possibility the new card is bad, did you remove it and hard reboot?

Sorry, hope you get it going,

[vansouza]

I only wish. It is stuck where the image of the Clie spins till you tap the screen for the first time... just keeps spinning...

I have seen this problem on Palm III's CLIE N710's and now apparently the NX70.

When it is in perpetual reboot press the power button for a little and release like you are doing a hard reset. You will get the "Erase all data" prompt. This of course is performing the hard reset. But it sounds like you lost it all already anyhow!

Feel like a fool... it was the new Sony screen protector... waisted $20 on two of them and each did the same thing... when I removed them my little baby came to life... there is a God...

I never recommend screen protectors for a variety of reasons, they actually can do more harm than good!

BTW, I am glad that's all it was, I bet you feel more relieved than a fool!

Larry, maybe you should give NetFront a second chance!

Maybe you need to remove your screen protector,

Maybe that was ALL that was wrong with NetFront!

HeeHeee

I am glad you solved it

Some posts have been made here about strange behavior due to the screen protectors, but nothing as serious as your problem.

I tend to agree with Larry, screen protectors sometimes do more bad than good.

I had put a screen protector on my NR, could not get dependable stylus function near the edges.

I think because a portion of the protector had gotten under the plastic bezel surrounding the screen.

Non-the less, happy it all worked out for you..

BTW, do you think that was what the problem was with the first WiFi card?

[vansouza]

No, because the protector when on after I got the new wifi card... so so most of you run without a protector? Might make a good poll question.

NOT on an $600 device, the SCREEN is to beautiful to scratch it; I coul care less on my old VISOR, but this???

*Phew, I do use the sony screen protector and have experienced no problem...
