Missing calls and Wizard lock up - NEED help - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development

Hi, all.
I'm having strange problem with WM6 roms (tried Core.2n and Wrcx 1) ... basically sometimes (was not able to figure out after what) phone kind of locks up, so when I press "green" button, nothing happening (no "call" screen appears) and I have to do soft reset. At the same time I can open keyboard and screen will rotate. So it is not completely locked.
As a result ... if phone is "locked up" and somebody calls me, not only I miss this call, it also does not appear on "missed call list" and no "voice mail" indicator appears too. Even after soft reset !. Which means that I'm missing this call COMPLETELY without even slight hint that somebody called me.
I do not know what to do Two ROMs I tried, both have same problem. Driving me crazy !!!

Probably something you installed that is causing the lockup. Find the common software or tweak you installed, that's the root cause.

This phone is pretty much empty after hard reset. Also I installed SAME applications I had in WM5 (in WM5 I did not have such problem), except BatteryStatus.
Will turn battery status off and see.
Any other suggestions ?

Other apps I installed over to both ROMS:
- BatteryStatus
- start clean
- smartskey
- SPB Backup
- SPB Diary
- SPB Weather
- PIM backup
- PhotoDialerPlugin
- CorePlayer
- WM5Storage
BTW, I did roll back to standard WM5 from T-Mobile before upgrading to WM6. Also I DID hard reset after upgrading to WM6. My Wizard is G3 with 3.08 spl and 2.19 radio

Try completely removing batterystatus for a while and see if it happens again. It's been known to cause issues.

I did. And I did soft reset. And 3 hours later it locked up again. What surprises me is that once I push "green" button and see my phone locked, I can actually click "Contacts" and contacts screen will appear.
Looks like problem in Phone module or something ?

WM5 hung at startup screen

Hi,
I have just upgraded my Blue Angel's (BA) ROM to the WM5 AKU3.5.2 R5 Rom Kitchen v2 last night, but start having issues already!
There are a couple of scenarios that I found the BA will hang at the startup screen when the Windows Mobile logo appears.
1. The first scenario was when I changed my battery. I turned off the screen, pull the battery out and replaced it. The BA hung!
2. I installed SPB Pocket Plus 3 and uses the embedded RESET function (icon) to restart the BA. Every single time I did it, the BA hung. (And I have tried more than 5 times. It really started to piss me off!)
The only solution that I can get back to the WM5 system was to give my BA a hard reset! The paid was to LOSE ALL the programs I have installed!
Has anyone experienced this before? What was wrong with it?! Did I do something ridiculously wrong or just another bug (a big one!) of the ROM? If it's a bug, anyone has a smarter way to get around it rather than hard resetting the BA before the fix comes out?
Many Thanks!

Settings menu icons disappear on boot (Jwright's 2.12.08, and possibly other ROMs)

Hello guys
I'm facing a minor problem with my latest WM6 rom. It could be specific to Jwright's newest ROM, however I'm starting a new post since it may also happen on other ROMs as well.
Most of the times I soft reset, when my device (Qtek 9000) boots up most of the icons on Settings menu (specifically on Systems and Connection tab) disappear completely.
I also have the same problem with the SPB Traveler today plugin (it may or may not appear) but it isn't related with the Settings icons (one appears, the other not and vice versa).
It's not that big of a deal, since after a couple of repeated resets the problem is solved, but it's a bit annoying to have to reset my device 3-4 times in order to fix this :/
Anyone else facing the same problem?

:MSQuickApp corruption on Vox Dr Gonzo ROM 6.1 V1.1

Hi all,
i have been using Dr Gonzo's 6.1 V1.1 Os for a while. Recently i seem to notice issues like MSQuickApp corruption.
For example, after initial usage, i am unable to go to QuickApp when i press the Power key. it says, :MSQuickApp is corrupted or not found.
I cant go to any items in the slide menu.
But, after a warm-boot everything seems to work OK.
i have the following programs installed on my Vox.
Let me know if any of this app is buggy or i have a virus in my device.. !!!!!!
Cheers.
I had a similar error a few times. As you described it was gone after a reboot. But so far I couldn't find a reproducible situation when it happens. But it was usually after a long idle time for example over night.
yes you are right. after a overnight idle, i get this error.
i think i would go to bare minimum wm 6.1.1 from Doctor and add only few apps .
thanks for your observation [email protected]

Multiple Problems After ROM Upgrade?!?

I'm a noob who has been reading away for months, trying to learn as much as possible from the forums. This week I finally decided to try my hand at tinkering. I took my one-year old stock Kaiser and used JumpSoft to flash HardSPL v.3.29, then I upgraded to HTC ROM v3.28.405.0 (WM6.1) from their support website.
Since the "upgrade" I have been experiencing the following issues:
1. Occasional freezes (screen becomes unresponsive)
2. Some settings do not persist (e.g. backlight timeout, call display filter, etc)
3. The Weather Tab on the Today Screen can only retrieve the forcast when the device is connected to the PC or to a WiFi Network.
It seems as though the freezes can be fixed by installing the SPL that comes with the HTC ROM, but I have no idea how to extract it. Has anyone extracted it for us and posted it?
I haven't seen anyone else having problems with settings resetting themselves. Anyone have an idea on this one?
I have yet to find a clear fix for the weather problem...
Thanks in advance for all your help. This site continues to amaze me!
Well I guess it's not news to anyone that the HTC ROM is crap. BUT...it was news to me! Still hoping someone can help me out.
I assume You followed the standard procedure of making a Hard reset after the flashing was finished?
About the weather updating: Can you do MMS and get access to internet on the device using 3G or Edge
(The easy way is to test if QiockGPS work when not connected via USB/wifi)?
If not, check the connection and messaging settings (configure connections and MMS options if not autoconfig wizard is usable).
Thanks for the reply!
I did the hard reset, no problem there.
I fixed the weather update problem by editing my MEdia Net Proxy Settings. I'm not having any other problems with Internet, MMS, QuickGPS, etc.
Still hoping for fixes for the non-persistant settings, and for the occasional freezes...

Try flashing cmonex's HardSPL 3.29 as alot of people say it fixes screen freezes:
First Download cmonex HardSPL 3.29:
http://www.4shared.com/file/66276521...rdSPL_329.html
Flash cmonex HardSPL 3.29
1. Copy JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe and JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe to your device (NOT storage card)
2. Pull out the battery and reinsert it (this step *IS* important)
3. Connect your PC to phone with a USB cable
4. REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS !!
5. Turn phone back on
6. Run JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe on your device (make sure the USB cable is still connected). If you get a white screen then reset your device and now try JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe
7. After a few seconds "USB" appears on the phone display
8. Unplug and replug the usb cable after 30 seconds
9. Deselect "Allow USB connections" in Activesync connection settings (right click activesync bottom corner icon)
10. Now flash cmonex's hardSPL 3.29 (run KaiserCustomRUU.exe in the cmonex folder on your PC and follow instructions)
11. REPLACE SIM and SD CARDS !!
I know you fixed the weather bug but the official fix for that is:
1. Go to Settings - Connections - Connections - Advanced - Select Networks - Edit (MEdia Net) - Proxy Settings -> UNCHECK BOTH OPTIONS
2. Soft Reset
What intermitent problems are you having?

I've got Jocky's v3.29 on my Kaiser now, is cmonex's version different or is that link just a mirror for Jocky's HardSPL? If it is different, I will definitely give it a shot. I am hating my Kaiser right now.
As far as the intermittent problems, there are two bad ones that are driving me nuts:
1. The backlight times out after ~12 seconds, no matter what setting I have it on. Interestingly, the backlight no longer goes dim for a few seconds before the screen goes black as it did with the OEM ROM. This means that there is no warning before it goes dark...I'll be reading a NYTimes article and the screen just blacks out every ~12 seconds. I have tried changing the settings and powering down, soft resetting, even hard resetting--nothing works.
2. The missed call tab (under the clock on the right side of the HTC home screen) will only list missed calls. If I go to Menu>Filter and select "All Calls" it will show me all the calls going in, out, and missed, but as soon as I go back to the home screen and select the tab again, it will only show me the missed calls. I know that this is minor, but I really liked having all my calls there b/c it helps me keep track of call times for billing. Again, I have tried all manner of resets and this setting will not persist.
These two problems, along with the freezes, are the only problems I have noticed with this HTC ROM. HOWEVER, they are enough to make me wish I hadn't flashed. I am now scouring the threads for a stable and flawless cooked rom. Thinking of Dutty's Non-Cube Hybrid V2, but haven't finished reading the thousands of posts to see if all issues are resolved. Any favorites?
Thanks again for reading!

The link is to cmonex's HardSPL 3.29 and it has been patched so it is different and definitely worth trying if your screen keeps freezing as it fixed my screen freezes.
For the backlight problem try installing these 2 files then soft reset and see if it fixes it:
http://www.4shared.com/file/66385622/adca0889/SJ_LongPressEndKey_1_1_34078_1.html
http://www.4shared.com/file/66383254/298acc7b/Fix_HD_III_OPAL_Backlight.html
I dont think the missed calls screen problem is anything to worry about since you can just press the 1st tab at the bottom of the screen to see the all calls list lol.
Im using HyperDragon3 6th oct Rom and it runs great for me (with a few tweaks):

What does that "longpressendkey" cab do? I have seen it mentioned in the forum many times, but I still don't know if it is a fix or a small program...

LongPressSendKey (or End key for that matter) is an addon app to allow an app or function to be triggered when you hold down the Send/End key. On my Garmin.DK.4.3c ROM, I have the LongPressSendKey give me my Comm Manager, and my LongPressEndKey give me a menu of options (set phone to vibrate, lock phone, etc.)

Sprite Backup lockscreen issue after restoring

Wondering if anyone encountered the below issues with Sprite Backup.
1st issue. I had done full restores from 2 minor versions of Sprite Backup 6.5.x.x which presents the same issue.
After a hard reset followed by restoration from the Sprite backup, everything looks pretty normal and functioning great. So I thought.
The lockscreen kicks in. As usual, I press the End button. I get a BLANK screen with all the 5 buttons lighted up ! Not the usual screen where one had to slide to unlock the lockscreen.
The same happens irregardless whether I am using the Manila lockscreen or S2U2.
2nd issue is with partial restore. Somehow, I had deleted the Tools folder in the Start Menu and decided to perform only a partial restore by selecting this particular folder from the backup. After reboot, HTC Sense got started but after a minute, it freezes.
For both the issues above, I ended up doing a hard reset again and faithfully install my cabs all over again.
Anyone have any idea or fix for 1st issue.
I have backed up many times with Sprite. No problems. Stock ROM 1.43(?) WWE
Same problem
Same problem as discussed above. Sprite version 6.5.5.6, ROM - Dutty 4.1.
Would appreciate any solutions to the issue.
Personally I would use PPCPimBackup it is free, easy to use, and WORKS great, I even transferred contacts from one WM system to another phone.

I believe I had resolved this issue all by myself.
There is a restore option setting in Sprite Backup which by default is enabled to do a "Merge" operation.
The blank/black screen with all buttons lighted up was caused by the Today timer which was at the 4-hr factory default setting.
I am not sure how the "merge" operation in Sprite Backup is carried out but had since changed the default setting to "replace".
Last fortnight, I had to do a hard rest and then full-restoration from Sprite backup file. Phone is working normally.
I just upgraded from Elegancia 10 to Elegancia V3. The 'replace' option works so much better. I had to enter all of my CHT quick links again with the 'merge' option. The 'replace' option restored them all perfectly. Neither option restored my 'People' contact images properly. No big deal...
