My Nokia 770 works perfectly in regards to Murphy's Law: I was showing off my new gadget to a tech nerd collegue. I turned it on, and booted to the main menu, but out of the blue it made the little "bonk" noise and restarted! Then it booted up, and again about 30 seconds later it reset again, and again, and again and again....
If I hadn't pulled the battery it would have kept this up indefinitely
How embarrasing! I had to tell my buddy I'd bring it by and show him all the great features - when it wasn't restarting every 30 seconds. He looked at me kind of funny-like.
Now, of course I've made a few changes, including using flasher to gain root access, and USB host mode is on, and I've flashed the v.8 OS image, but I've been using it for days like this with no trouble. The only thing I can think of is that last night I installed a personal background screen (a 800x480 PNG image I created), but again - it was working fine last night...
Has anyone dealt with this before?
Is there a way to kick the 770 into a "recovery mode"?
