After 3 months of suffering, reading, trying everything , this worked for me. 100%.
Try it. PLEASE post here if it worked and even if it didn't.

SETUP

1- Need 4.5 OS on device. I have an unlocked AT&T Curve 8300 with Suncom/TMo SIM. Installed 8300M_PBr4.5.0_rel152_PL2.7.0.90_A4.5.0.110_AT&T.e xe

2- 4.7 DeskTop manager installed. ( I have the 5 beta but stick with the 4.7)

3- Remove media card.

4- Perform the following steps: (This for XP PCs)
A- Go to a command prompt. Easiest way is to Win-R and then enter the following: (your directories may be slightly different). The important thing is to get to the Research In Motion folder wherever it is.

C:\Documents and Settings\Edward>cd \

C:\>cd c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader>loader.exe /resettofactory

You are now resetting the device to factory settings.

THIS IS NOT THE SAME AS USING JL_Cmdr Wipe Function

YOU HAVE TO DO THIS STEP. THIS IS THE MISSING LINK.

Once the phone reinstalls some factory files (about 2-4 minutes), the phone will now work. You do not have to reinstall the OS or any other file.

Try making some calls to landlines, other cells, etc. After you are pleased with it working, TURN IT OFF NORMALLY. Do not just remove battery with device turned On.

Install Media card. Turn phone back on.

Enjoy.

Once again, please post here if it worked for you. The feedback is very important.

Can't you just do a reset to factory with Javaloader?

[Raptor464]

Its exactly the same thing as resetting to factory with javaloader.

[AguilaFan]

Yes it is.
However, not everyone has JL.
You have it, use it.
I have it but was following instructions and wanted to do the steps most people will follow.

Anybody with the reboot problem do this yet to see if it works for you?

Hi, I have treid differet batteries, wiping, different OS but nothing works.

Did you back up all your data (contacts, calender, servicebooks and so on) and load it back onto the device?

Thanks,

I'm now sure it's a problem with my bb, not with my pc, coz another bb is ok. I have no idea except try to wipe.

Which data will be lost after reset to factory mode, contacts? settings? 3rd apps?

Argh did not solve my reboot problem....BB is soon going in that trash...

On good dags it only reboots a couple og times but this weekend it booted almost every hour!!!

Only extra apps are gmail and Opera but I have it syncronised with my outlook contacts and calender via DTM.
