I am close to seeing if my XDA2i and TT5.10 can swim better than it navigate without locking up . . .
I installed the corporate version when hard reset, and performed a clean install of version 5.10 as requested by the tom tom support team.
TT5.10 works like a dream . . .. if you dont get a phone call (locks up) or dont get a text message (locks up) dont want a traffic update (locks up) - in fact it probably works best if you do not switch it on . . .
After 10 updates to my online question, because getting to play a round of golf with the President is easier than speaking with anyone at tomtom, they replied . . .
"Thanks for the feedback. The issues that you mention should have been resolved with the update to version 5.10. I'll contact our technical team about this, and will get back to you." (yeah, right)
Thanks for the feed back? THANKS?? Maybe it should be us XDA2i users thanking TT for wasting our time getting lost because their update is more premature than me sharing a bed with a supermodel.
I contacted O2, because when someone calls me on my trusty XDA2i (locking up TT) the phone line is totally dead when I answer.
O2 said . . .
"The XDA2i has an upgrade due for release very shortly. We haven’t been given a set date yet, but I would suggest checking the website each day for the update - www.my-xda.com
Hopefully their new ROM will sort this issue . . . TomTom clearly not tested TT5 on an allegedly supported device . . .
Incidently when I ask TT to unlock my old TT3 code (because TT3 actually worked and I want to re-install it) they said . . .
"Unfortunately we can't unblock your Product Code for Navigator 3 at the moment, as this was code was blocked when you ordered the Upgrade"
If any one has any solutions, or a sledge hammer, I be very grateful
Hi there, im currently using TT5 with hardly any problems(im using i-mate ROM) but there are a few that may cause it.
Firstly the SD card has caused alot of problems for people, i use a 1gig card and it is the cause of most of my problems.
However i think the root of the many problems the 2i has is ... The ROM.
As O2 say they are releasing a new ROM soon and i can bet this will sort alot of the problems your having right now.
in the mean time you should think about installing the i-mate ROM which has made my XDA2i more stable.
I have an XDA 2i & can use Tom Tom 5 wiithout a problem, bearing in mind it is version 5.0. I haven't experiencd these problems you have mentioned.
My first XDA2i did play up (freezing up at random times!), after a quick call to O2, they replaced the unit & so far I haven't had the same problems. I just put it down to a glitch in the system.
I am however interested in upgrading the ROM as my version is the same as yours & from what I have read on this website, it seems that people find it worthwhile upgrading their ROMs to iron out the glitches. But is it safe to use upgrades meant for other devices?
I'm also using TTN5 without a problem, version 5.0 with the patch I posted here, before applying that patch it would crash fairly regularily, now however it's fine.
I have had problems when using a 1gig card on my XDA2i. It seems that any gsm/gprs activity causes the SD card to disconnect, thus freezing/locking up the phone, especially in TOMTOM. If I switch cards to a 512mb or 256mb the card does not disconnect and everything is fine. I had problems with the phone locking up whilst navigating and a call coming in, whis was with tomtom 3.07. Moving to tomtom5 cured all of this. I'd definately say it's a ROM problem with the XDA2i as my 1gb card will without fail disconnect when I switch on GPRS.
roll on ROM update....
I am running the i-mate 1.11 ROM and I have hardly any problems compared to when I was running the O2 1.10 ROM.
Rarely the phone will lock up when I hang up a call, and sometimes GPRS will fail to reconnect after a call, but in general it is *very* stable compared to 1.10.
WM2005 on the XDA2 has been perfectly stable for me, but alas, I sold it last week, and am now stuck with a more buggy device/os.
I upgraded to the imate 1.11 rom and now my bluetooth head set disconnects when the unit powers off. A call will come in and i have no headset icon. This worked fine under the O2 UK rom
Any ideas ????????? :? :?
yeah i tried the i-mate rom as well and was no good on my xda2i kept freezing the pda after i exited tomtom
i don't think it is the sd cards either that is causeing this as i have been though 3 cards already and there was never any difference allways locked up ..BUT the best i ever got was a clean install then using tomtoom updated traffiffic fine and the whole i did it about 10 times but as soon as it hit the gps cable thats when it all froze on me
I haven't experienced either of those problems with the 1.11 rom, and I use TomTom 5 (well, 5.10 now) and a Jabra BT800 headset all the time.
So many of the issues really are random.
Until about 3 days ago the sound on my phone worked perfectly, I have installed dutty's rom for about 1 month ago. On friday or something the sound simply dissapaired from the phone, and now I am only able to hear sounds through headphones/earplugs.
I have discovered that if i press the wheel on the side inwards, the sound returns as long as I am holding my finger there. What is causing this, and how can i possibly fix it?
I can't anylonger hear when the phone is ringing or anytthing
What radio are you using? Try updating your radio and reading the wiki.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=DuttySeriesKaiser
Problem: I have no sound.
Solution: You need to install a Windows Mobile 6.1 radio.

From what I get he didn't flash anything new or change anything? I would try a hard reset and see if that fixes it if not flash a new ROM and Radio that is known to work and if that doesn't work trade it for a refurb from your provider.
I just tried both hard-reset and installing a new rom. It is not working as I have seen yet. I don't think its a hardware error because i have never lost the phone on ground yet, and it has never been in contact with water. I have also tried to reset the software, but nothing helps
I also can't remember installing a software or making any changes other then gps fix previously before the problems started occuring. Might it be possible that somehow a change or something somewhere have made my phone uncompitable with the current radios?
As I said previously, I get trough the headphone. the odd thing is that i get the sound on the phone back if i press the scrollwheel inward a bit hard. I think there is a registry error or something somewhere.
Though this is very annoying because I can't hear when the phone is ringing. The phone is too big to be in my pocket, and then i need to keep it in my jacket.
I would be grateful if anyone could provide a solution to this-
though i have read through the wiki, and I find it strange that a rom and radio that previously were working, suddenly stops working.

I fully agree. I have the same problem with all Dutty's ROM. Once I pair the bluetooth device the first time and have it connected, from then on the sound goes to bluetooth headset. Thus, I miss calls if I am not wearing my bluetooth headset 24/7.
When the bluetooth headset is disconnected, still there is no sound from the phone. Again, I miss calls.
The Radio which I use with Dutty's ROM is alway included in the ROM.
Maybe, some registry settings?
KOR!
But the strange thing here is that the sound worked perfectly until some days ago, but maybe i should try to just reset the whole phone back to its original setting, and then reinstall everything?
I think its just annoying that something like this occurs when the phone is working perfectly.
Though i don't need to wear headsets when i am talking in the phone; the inbound speakers are working as they are supposed to
Ok, i have tried every radio possible now, and none of them works

Try to install a different ROM which has built in Radio with the ROM. Such as this:

Hope this is helpful.

flash it to original radio and rom, if it still does not work i think it's time to get that replaced. you may have to warranty it.
How do I do that? If there is any help, I have 2 other htc kaisers at home if there is possible to retrieve anything from them

Just flash some other ROM and see what happens. Either flash the ROM from the link I have given or flash the original ROM.
Spend half an hour and you will know if it is software or hardware problem.
The easy way is to download the ROM from the link given above and let us know the results!
KOR!
Same problem here. I noticed that it only happens after pairing it with bluetooth. I was on the ROM for a month before i pair it with bluetooth and then voila ... no sound.
However, my problem can be temporarily solve by resetting the phone. I was about to flash to the latest Dutty's and see how...

You should have made this post in the thread of the ROM you're using!
You don't have a signature so we don't know what the @#$% you have on your phone.
It's not like Dutty only has 1 ROM out.
There's several individuals who go thru Dutty's threads & help individuals like yourself.
So, if you post there....you will get the help you need.
Moderators.....please close this useless thread !

Resetting the Rom
I have a phone where the hardware is malfunctioning, and i want to send the phone back for repair. The only problem is reinstalling the previous OS.
I had originally a norwegian OS (1.56.409.8711). I do have acess to another kaiser with the OS i want, so is there anyway to retrieve it from the phone?
The signature shown is incorrect. That was the earlier ROM giving me problems...
Hi Everyone,
I have been writing on this same topic over and over again. Following is my problem:
I bought HTC Prophet/O2 Neo and it works well with Windows Mobile 5. I wanted to upgrade to Windows Mobile 6 and other higher versions. I can upgrade to WM 6 as well.
But following are the problems I face with WM6 and higher versions:
1) When I send a short message (SMS) to someone my phone works normally but if someone calls me the phone rings at their end but does not ring at my end. I switch off the phone (put it on standby) and then it works okay.
2) IF the phone loses the signal anywhere it just keeps on hunting for the signal. In the meantime it shows the green light blinking indicating it does have a signal. Now if in the meantime any one calls me up the phone again rings at their end but I do not get any incoming calls. I do not get any missed call alerts either.
I have reverted back to Jester's ROM in WM5.0 it is working fine again with the following problems:
1) The voice quality is not so great and calls regularly get dropped in areas where signal is not too strong
2) The contacts do not have options such as "File As"
3) When you want to dial and you put in the first few numbers for e.g. for dialling SAM you put in 726 it will display all entries related to 726. Though SAM is a part of these entries it should be the first entry as it is someone I call more often.
4) When you are playing music and put the phone on standby the music stops!
I request you to advise me on how should I upgrade to 6.0 or further in the best possible way or help me resolve the problems in WM5 with appropriate apps
Also one thing I wonder is what IPL/SPL/GSM should be there ideally for WM6.
Also FYI my friend has the same phone upgraded to WM 6.5 and it works perfectly for him. I put my SIM card in his phone and it worked fine as well.
Please help.

Vinit Badani.

-this might have to do with correct settings did you check your phone settings or if not did you hard reset after flashing a ROM whether is WM 5 or 6?
2) IF the phone loses the signal anywhere it just keeps on hunting for the signal. In the meantime it shows the green light blinking indicating it does have a signal. Now if in the meantime any one calls me up the phone again rings at their end but I do not get any incoming calls. I do not get any missed call alerts either.
-this doesnt happen to me maybe there is really a network problem or better yet check your phone settings again there might have been an appropriate setting for this situation
I have reverted back to Jester's ROM in WM5.0 it is working fine again with the following problems:
1) The voice quality is not so great and calls regularly get dropped in areas where signal is not too strong -that happens really if signal is not so strong better find a spot where in there is an appropriate signal
2) The contacts do not have options such as "File As" -this is ROM dependent i think... some ROM cookers incorporate these settings in their ROMS
3) When you want to dial and you put in the first few numbers for e.g. for dialling SAM you put in 726 it will display all entries related to 726. Though SAM is a part of these entries it should be the first entry as it is someone I call more often. -you have to live with it i guess since your using WM 5
4) When you are playing music and put the phone on standby the music stops!check your media player settings there is a setting that says play music even on standby mode
I request you to advise me on how should I upgrade to 6.0 or further in the best possible way or help me resolve the problems in WM5 with appropriate apps
Also one thing I wonder is what IPL/SPL/GSM should be there ideally for WM6.nope IPL doesnt matter SPL should be HardSPLed if your G3 you should have 2.G3.4PDA or G4 2.G4.4PDA (read more on how you will know if your device is G3 or G4 on Prophet WIKI THIS IS IMPORTANT BEFORE FLASHING ANY ROM GSM its only for getting phone signals etc etc and sometimes this matter when your battery drains so fast
Also FYI my friend has the same phone upgraded to WM 6.5 and it works perfectly for him. I put my SIM card in his phone and it worked fine as well.
Please help.

Odd fault this (assume hardware) ! Just occurred with no recent software added.
Boot device or simply toggle radio off/on & it will work great but the following morning it will be unable to receive or make calls but carrier messages still work (GPRS account use ect)
Tried other SIMs & carriers & handset acts up the same.
Have tried quite a few radio versions & done a complete reflash of HardSPL Radio & New ROM but problem persists. Bit upset as handset is like new condition & I was happy with it :-(
Any ideas !
Anyone breaking a TouchPro !
whether your devices have invisible settings such as in SE Xperia ..?
I am facing a very strange problem.. I never took it seriously as of being careless thinking to switch ROMs if its not working den switching it might make it work bt till date ..I'm shocked...what could be this?
I am presently on Bond Sir's ROM of Tsunami Typhoon
Let me repeat the problem:
It shows that it is 'ON'
It doesn't send anything nor able to receive anythng :/
It always says: The file could not be sent 'if i send anything from a device or PC'
Other devices can detect its name if I rename but not in PC
Pls help, I am in need of things which I am not able to work it.
