I flashed to pandora 1.05 a few days ago.
Now, since yesterday evening, and after several SR, my vibrate function doesn't vibrate anymore...
(a vibrator that does not vibrate seems a bit useless )
I wonder if it could be the rom's fault since I tried nearly all wm5/wm6 roms floating around, and never experienced this problem.
And, if rom is not guilty, anyone knows a way to have my pda vibrate again ?
Should replacing the battery with a new one do the trick ?
thx all for your help

I don't think that is a ROM problem. Still , just to be sure, you could flash any other rom, check the vibra function and if not working, mabe the little engine that does that is dead, or , if it's working, you could try flash back see if it wasn't a bad flash.

Yep ! I was planning to do that tonite. But I'm @ work for now and was hoping for a simple and fast solution....
Despite i'd prefer the matter to be rom related (no offense to mun nor "pandora team", they did a great work), i'm affraid i'll have to get a new battery !!!
NOTA : VIBRATION MECHANISM IS LOCATED IN THE BATTERY, RIGHT ???

In fact....no (ouch....)
I wanted to make a backup prior to make a hard reset to see if HR helped
so i DL and install spb backup.
I run it to get my backup
Spb reboots wizard...and VOILA, vibration is back to life, but I don't know why it stopped working nor why it is working back now nor the period for which it will last...

I've tried this new version found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1769023) hoping that it would solve the freezing-on-incoming-call problem that I experience intermittently.
I've unionstalled the old version, rebooted, installed the new, rebooted again for the sake of safety, but it doesn't show up in the screen, even if I've enalbed it in Today settings.
Are you experiencing this problem too?
@mamaich, and the others: how can we solve?
Hi Bro,
I've totally given up with any version of HTC Home Today no matter how cool it is as it locks up the phone when receiving calls.
The only solution to avoid crash is to run in portrait mode which unfortunately doesn't suit me. Instead, I'll wait for HTC Shift's SnapVue to run in Uni, why not? It runs on HTC Athena!?
Cheers!

yeah, even the HTC Home runs in the athena... it runs in the kaiser...and in the touch, too... so why shouldn't it run on the Universal...
argh... i hate the universal!!!
I think only a few of us are having the freeze/crash problem. Most Uni users don't seem to have any problems at all.

I don't think so. Most uni users switch ROM every 2 days and they don't use the PDA for anything serious at all.
If something suddendly stops working (as it is frequently the case) they just hard reset the device.
I want to use my universal and upgrade the ROM only when needed, when something really new comes out.

confirmed... hangs upon incoming call.... the phone would keep vibrating while all keys/buttons/screen area are locked, no way to answer it....does not stop so had to reset.

Nice to see "some" of you with the "crash on receiving calls in laptop mode" problem post here!
I use my Uni too as a PDA & a business tool & that made me to conclude that plugin is not for me. The plugin is a beauty but functionality comes first to me. Unless a solution can be found I've learned to live without it!
Going back on topic, haven't tried this version yet but the previous 2.xxxx versions installs well but causes the horrible crash.

How can you say that? When the device is in standby, no other program is running. When the device is on, HTC Home causes no major cpu usage (except maybe once a minute, when btw every plugin has a greater chance to use the CPU to redraw itself)
hello pals ,i have an O2 xda zinc & i think its a nice phone... it was working fine but recently the problem had developed that it turns off on its own when the
battery is at 50% & it wont turn on unless i connect it with the charger & the phone will only run normally if the battery status is above 50 %
i had updated it to wm6 latest rom but its the same ....moreover i cant replace the unit or send it for service coz i had bought it from grey market for a hefty amount & I NEVER KNEW IT WASNT A HTC DEVICE ...
I FEEL THAT I M STUCK. PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ HELP ME
Try a New Battery
Have you tried a new battery? Although you may think its getting a full charge maybe you got a bad or refurbished battery try that first.
yeah
Yeah i had tried that .... it didnt helped ................
62 VIEWS & ONLY 1 REPLY ... COME ON GUYSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
have you tried reflashing? to clean out anything that may be jacked up?
what have you recently changed? i think i would definitely try flashing a clean rom and see what happens there (back-up first of course in case it doesnt help and you want to flash back and get all your stuff back)

wow then, well...im sorry to say, but you're probably out of luck. if you have tried replacing the hardware as well as the software, then there must be some sort of problem with the battery connection or some other internal issue...something you wouldn't likely be able to fix.
sorry, good luck.
UMM i guess i m stucked .. can any one plzz gimme some idea whats wrong with my ppc
I sense that you might be desperate for ideas....
I've had some odd battery problems, too, and what seems to help me the most is to drain the battery entirely, or at least very, very close to it, and then recharge it without interruption completely.
AEBPlus has a "disable "power off" if not used function that might keep it powered up while you drain it, or might, on an outside chance, even solve your problem.
It almost sounds as if the unit is telling you the batttery is at 50%, but really it's just about drained. It could be there's something set somewhere to have it power off at 50% rather than 0-5% like usual, but the former sounds more likely to me. You might want to check to see what sort of time/usage other units like yours get out of a battery-full. Maybe just reading your numbers differently (50=0, 75=50 etc.) is the way to go.

Not to discourage anybody, but I don't think anyone can really fix this. I'm pretty sure it's a hardware problem (I have this problem on my Touch Pro too)

hello all,
as i said in the original post, mine started just like yours and now the bluetooth does the same. i heard that the same chip is responsible for both wifi & bluetooth its an IC or smthn, so whoever knows where we can buy this chip , plz post it here,cz there is no software solution its hardware 100% ty
@ OP
The Wifi sometimes doesn't work because of the same " Microp" error . Follow the guide and see if it works for you.
DISASSEMBLING your device will be different from this guide , find a video tut on Youtube .
Disconnect and reconnect everything back and hopefully everything will be straightened out.

Best of luck !
im not gonna do it
i wanted to try it but i dnt have the right tools to remove those screws and i dont want to ruin them lol , if it works with anyone il send mine to some cellphone shop and he will do this work for me , il tell him the technique lol .
cz we dnt have HTC spare parts in here , so hope this works
thanks man btw
Hello,
I've got the same wifi-wont-turn-on problem since a coulple of months. I already tryed several radios and roms but without any succes.
Today I disassembled my phone, unplugged then plugged many times the mother boad, but the problem is still here
I know my phone fell on the floor someday, but I'm not sure that's why the wifi won't work anymore.
I have got the same problem bluetooth works fine but wifi dont
Bad news
my bluetooth used to work fine 2 , but then it died just like the wifi so get ready to lose it my friend
I had something like that with my Blue Angel, i was clicking on wifi in connections but nothing was happening. i was always fixing it with starting it from the wireless lan settings (where u set energy or quality). u can choose to start it from there (on the first screen). i was doing it few times and either was starting, either i was going back to connections again and start it from there and then it worked normaly. was some problem with the blue angel itself. i have no idea if this might help but u can at least try, just click both buttons few times and fingers crossed
Guys i am facing a problem..i already searched the whole xda but i didnt find anything..my problem is that my htc cant vibrate anymore...even the htc sence and even when im typing to send a message...at the settings is already set to vibrate all the mods..but nothing works!!any solution please?
did you try a softreset or hardreset? also what rom are you using?
i did soft reset many times...i use stock rom 1,66....!
anyone please??
Do a hard reset. Yes, it'll wipe out all the data and apps but its worth a try. If your phone still don't vibrate, I guess you have a problem with the motor or something.
yeah thats it...
a problem can be caused by a installed program or something else...
after a hardreset, it has to work..if not, you've got a hardware defect.

Check on the back of the phone if your led flash is "pressed in". That could cause the vibrate to stop working.

Same problem here. Flash cover was pushed and stopping the vibration mechanism. openning the back cover and pushing the flash cover so that it flushes with the cover solved the problem. Openning the cover will void your warranty though.

I had the same problem, and found my LED flash to be pushed in after reading this thread.
I opened up the case to correct it. But after putting it back together not only does vibrate not work, but the volume keys, speakers (both earpiece and speakerphone), flash, notification led, and camera all don't work.
I obviously screwed something up, but I have no clue what it could have been. I was very careful. One thing I'll note is that when I pulled the case apart, the volume rocker went flying. When putting the phone back together I got it back into place so that I THOUGHT it should work (it was seated properly and felt "clicky" for up/down movements.
But no luck, all that I listed above is non functional, and what I'm left with is a glorified 3.5 in tablet
Any ideas??

I had the problem and I logged a problem ticket with HTC Service center at Malaysia..
Subject: HTC Touch2 Self-Power Off intermittently and unable to power on again via the Power button.
Desc: My Touch2 was purchased on 16-Nov 2009. It experiencing intermittent self-power off problem when phone was left ideal for couple of second! Secondly, the phone was intermittent "freeze" when charging with power adapter. For both cases, the phone cannot be turn on via the Power button. Must perform manual Reset to power on the phone each time. I performed FACTORY Reset 5 times already; disabled the Touch2Flo; disabled ALL auto power off.. yet it did not resolve the problem. [ROM Version: 1.28.707.3 (66092); Radio Version: 3.49.25.05; Protocol version: 61.42t.25.31H]
The service center called and they offered to change the motherboard. I had it changed unfortunately the problem still persist. And worst still the touch screen didn't not respone after a while. I sent to fix and waited for another 2weeks, and changed the 2nd motherboard. I'm been using the repaired phone for past 2monts WITHOUT any intermittent power off issue.. YIPPI!
P/s: My batt Serial No: 1GKA299KQQ4912. Part No: 35H0015-11M. The HTC repair report did not mentioned whether they change my batt nor I cannot confirmed whether it was the "-07M". Anyway, I'm glad that my nightmare is over for now
gooddd
Hey good that you fixed it somehow. At the time i was having that turnoff problem thing, i really felt like ****, but after reading your message, i feel better off
