Help..Jasjar going into auto powersave and no response on button press.

Greetings,
I just upgraded to the 2.02.00 ROM last night but still have the occassional lockups. I need to do a soft reboot to get the phone to respond. I believe when it locks up, the radio is still running since I see the blinking Green LED for the GSM. I have to switch off the POWER MANAGEMENT option of "Turn off in x min in not used" for battery power to be able to use the device for calls. The only level of battery saving I am stuck with now is the Backlight auto-off and the beam settings.
Is this something others are having as well or are any applications the culprit?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Regards
BHAMEED

Try the power button

All buttons..including the power button...no response.

try holding down the power button
or setting the backlight to atleast one notch.

Urm... uh... ah.... eeee... aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh.

I can confirm this behavior on my MDA Pro (G3).
All ROM versions the same like Bhameed's on my MDA, ...except bootloader of course.
Anyone else noticed this on 2.02.00?

Hold on, can you guys be more specific with this? Are you absolutely sure it doesn't come back on when you PRESS AND HOLD the power button??? Really sorry if I sound like I'm being pedantic, but just from what you've written it sounds like you don't know how to turn on the phone???

hahahaHAHAHA!!! awesome reply spyder
ok, yeah i was thinking this is an issue of not being able to turn on your phone.
yeah what's going on that was different from before?

There have been only few moments where you think "Surely not"... I hate those moments, I'm just hoping this isn't one of them! If it is a genuine problem it's pretty serious and needs to be addressed, but if not.... well, I don't think I should say much more
Please please please say this is all a big joke. I'm tired, please excuse me.

I confirm this behaviour!
And more!
My Qtek freezes... freezes... and then PUFFF. Dead.
I wait some minutes (30 minutes) and I can turn it on again.
I'll send it to qtek.

Mine has a thing sometimes where there will be a pause between pressing the power button and it coming to life... sometimes if I get impatient and press the power button again it will turn it back off before it's come on.
I don't really get it though. Does it freeze while it's still on, or while it's turned off? If it freezes when on, there's plenty of info about how to prevent freezes (mostly 3rd party apps + reg tweaks).
If it really does freeze when off, then please let us know anything more on the issue that you can.

Mine freezes everywhere. Bootscreen, Pin code menu (when u type your pin). It depends.
then pda doesn't turn on.
Many problems.
Just go to the assistance. :\

1.Sometimes it freezes while its on. For Instance I had program opened and then whenI tried pressing X to close nothing happened. I had to use the red hardware button to close. Wonder why.
2.I too agree while the phone boots and is searching for network, it takes very long, Meanwhile when the pin enter screen come up, unless the network is fully searched one cannot enter the sim pin code, it has few freezes. or at time the phone signal icon disappears on top bar and again you need to reset the phone.

Again, I don't have this problem for some reason... I get very few freezes at all.
I think we're getting away from the original point of the post though... and normal freezing is well documented in most OS threads with means to prevent it.

Same here...Confirmed. Tried all button combinations to get the display back (short presses and long ones), but then end up having to do a soft-reboot to finally get the phone to work properly....

And then you don't have other problems? Like freezes?
EDIT: I flash the original rom but the problem still here

I wonder if this could be a memory leak like someone suggested.... I'm sorry guys, I haven't experienced this problem, and I haven't seen any posts about it until this thread, is there any chance you guys with this issue can keep an eye over your memory status over say a couple of days to see if there's a leek and keep us posted? Once we find out what the problem is it should make a solution easier.

I experienced this problem as well using a cooked WM5 ROM on my HERM200 the only fix I found was migrating to another ROM. I'm currently using CUSTEL_Cing_v1.3, the battery life sucks but I love WM6, it is so much faster, I'm still tweaking and trying to resolve some other issues but other than that I am quite happy with it.
If you are experiencing the lockup I would suggest moving to another ROM as an option, that worked for me. Although a clean install usually fixes a lot of problems.

My Polaris Keeps Vibrating

Hello all...
just got my polaris last month. everything was ok, the phone was NEVER been dropped or what so ever. i treated it like my baby. but sometimes something weird happened. my polaris keeps vibrating when there is incoming message. and it keeps vibrating until i have to soft reset it. anything else wont do. the X button, task manager etc. everything in my polaris is original. anyone had this problem before? please help!
thank you

It has happened to me a couple of times.
I've no idea why, I have also treated my phone gently as is my custom with all my technology. There do not seem to have been any side effects though and it has only happend twice since i got the phone three months ago.
I don't think it's much to worry about.
*fingers crossed*

Just flash new rom, it helps

No, that won't help. Got the problem 3 times now, i think, in more then 6 months. Got the problem with the original, bepe and with the latest udK Diamond ROM. Just soft-reset and wait till the next time it happens

If your phone gets stuck vibrating, you can turn off the vibration by triggering an event that causes a vibration (instead of having to reboot the device). I used to have to send myself a text message (I have my phone set to vibrate for incoming texts) and that would do the trick. Now with the latest S2U2 builds with the volume control enhancement, I just use that to turn vibrate on and off (it will vibrate when you turn it to vibrate) and that does the trick as well.

hmm...i guess there is no absolute solution to this problem.

My HTC Cruise got splattered with beer last night and now its constantly vibrating, i mean...even if i turn off the device it still does it. Tried soft and hard reset, dry, clean, dry again and nothing happened, still the same. It only stops when i remove the battery of course.
The weird thing is that it vibrates in a less strong way than normal vibration. is this a known issue? How do i solve it? doest it have anything to do with the water detector on this type of phones?
Please, someone help me its really anoying to have a phone vibrating like that in my pocket lol. Thank you in advance.

Weird Fuze Power Button Issue

I have been experiencing a periodic problem where the screen on my Fuze will be on, and it will not dim or go to sleep. Even if I press the power button it does not shut off. So the screen stays on completely and will, of course, eventually wear the battery down. While this is happening, it is not frozen - I can still use TF3D. The only way to get the screen to go off is to do a soft reboot, after which it will perform normally (including the power booting working like it should). This happens about once a day.
This generally seems to happen when the phone is charging. When I unplug it, the bar at the top still shows the phone as connected to the power. I also notice that the battery seems a little warmer than usual at the times when charging causes this to happen.
In searching the forum I found one other user who had this issue, but did not see any fixes. Coincidentally or not, that other user was using Blackberry Connect, which I am also.
Anybody else have this problem? If so, any proposed solution?
While I am at it, I have a Blackberry Connect issue as well. The phone will periodically (usually, but not always, in the middle of the night) just stop receiving Blackberry Connect e-mails, even though everything in the Blackberry software looks normal. Again, I need to soft reboot to fix it. If anybody has experienced this or has a solution, it would be helpful also.
Thanks in advance.

my button seams to have quit working all together, soft reset doesnt help, tryed the hard reset mabe im,doing it wrong. it never ressets data basicly has the same efect as a soft reset.
not sure if its a hardware or software issue at this point. it randomly pops up the are you sure you want to quit txt.

Battory compleatly drained overnight, put it on chager and power button works again. No settings where lost that i see, kind of rules out a hardware issue.

Black screen of death

The other day, I hit the power button on my touch pro, and the screen didn't come on. I did a soft reset, and it started working again. Now today, the same thing is happening, but a soft reset isn't helping.
The screen's back light comes on, the LEDs on the buttons come on, and the phone seems to be working fine. I hear all the sounds, including the HTC sound while it is booting, and the new message sound, but the screen stays black. It still recognizes touches, it just doesn't show an image. I want to do a hard reset, and will if I can get it to come one one more time, but its been about a month since I backed up my contact list. Lesson learnt there. I'm afraid it might be a hardware problem since I don't see anything while its booting either.
Anyone know if this is a known hardware issue with the touch pro? The phone is less then 3 months old, and I've been real careful with it. I haven't dropped it from more then 2 feet, and even that was onto carpet. Its the Verizon version if that makes a difference, and I'm running one of the NFSFAN roms. Its not the newest one, but rather the one posted on October 19th. I doubt its the rom, though, as I've been using it for around 2 months with no issues.
EDIT: Ok, I went into the bootloader to see if it was hardware of software. I figured if it was hardware, the screen would be black, and if it was software, it would be the rainbow. Sure enough, the screen stayed black. Hit the reset button, and the screen actually came on! Go figure. Went to do a backup, and the screen literally crapped out on me while I was watching it. Definitely a hardware problem.

similar with Touch HD... kinda
I've been having a similar problem with my Touch HD. The problem is very intermittent though and is sometimes hard to reproduce. The screen and phone will be working fine then once in a while when I push the power button to lock the phone, I'll unlock it and the screen stays black. I know that the phone is still on and even unlocked because pushing the buttons at the bottom makes the phone vibrate. The only consistency in reproducing the problem happens after I do something major on the phone such as making a phone call, browsing the internet, sometimes charging the phone. Other than that, I can sit here and push the power button all day and it'll come on and off with no problems. When the screen does go black I've taken the battery out repeatedly as well as repeatedly rebooted the phone until it comes back on. I've tried doing hard and soft resets to no avail. I've tried deactivating "turn off backlight if device is not used for" and "turn off device if not used for" without any resolve. After this I've even left the screen on (disabled backlight off) to see if it flickers or shows any sign of being faulty and it seems to be fine. I'm currently on Dutty's HD WM 6.5 Leo R5 WWE rom, but this has happened with two other roms (NRG, LIA). Other info include:
OS: 5.2.23016
Manila: 2.519192828.0
Radio: 1.14.25.24
Protocol: 52.64.25.34H
I guess the only consistent software has been my radio. Please help! Any advice would be awesome. I've tried google search and xda search without much help. Thanks

[Q] Problems - Reboots and Wifi

Hi,
After switching from my old trusty Desire, I'm beginning to regret getting the One s!
Anyone else having reboot problems? Mine hard restarts at least twice a day even if left completely idle (as it just has having been on charge for the last hour).
Wifi - Stays connected to access-points long, long gone. Was connected to my home according to the settings screen 5 hours after I left home. Data then stops flowing. Solution is to turn off and back on wireless.
HTC gave me a rather poor response. I have exactly the same apps (bare the new sense) on the new phone as the old, less even.
Anyone else having the same issues? I guess it's a software issue, but I want to return it if it's a faulty handset.
Thanks.

I think you should do a factory reset and then try the phone for a day whithout doing any changes to it. If it still restarts you should really send it back.

i have exactly the same problem. sometimes my device reboots without doing nothing. i had this on my black device and on my grey device after i gave the black one back. i contacted htc and the woman at the chat support just said it is a software problem and i should do a factory reset. to do that i should remove the battery (lol). because of that i think htc-employees are really unqualified.
same issue with wifi here.it stays a few hour connected without any problem. then it disconnects and doesn't reconnect.only if i turn it off and on again.It doesn't appear evertime wifi is on but it is annoying.i hope htc will fix this soon

Certainly sounds like we have the same issues. let's hope HTC are listening and fix soon.

I have also some reboots. I think at least twice a week. And always when the phone is on standby. I hope also that htc will fix this soon =)

Not only with phones, but look at Windows or games, they also have bugs at start, but with time most of them get fixed

Mine also only reboots in standby. In my pocket, on the desk, etc. It's never done it during use, and I do use it a lot.

WiFi problem is noted. An annoyance, but no deal breaker as long as I have the WiFi toggle on the home screen. Guess it will be fixed when developers get their hands on the kernel source.
Had the phone for one week come Friday, and had one shutdown (not reboot) this far, and that happened as I was surfing multiple tabs in dolphin. Guess the phone ran out of operating space and had to clean itself out in a bad way

Got mine today so will let you know.
Sent from my HTC One S using XDA

Had the same reboot issue since 2 days (at least once a day). I have the phone since 10 days. The last program I installed was "adfree". I couldn't use it as I have no root rights yet but didn't uninstall it. Finally I uninstalled it yesterday and no more self reboot since. Hope this helps.

I've had the reboot problem on several occasions. Twice the 'One S' has even got stuck in a reboot loop (after login the phone restarts as soon as I try to start an app or report the error). This problem seems to be related to some problematic app running in the background constantly restarting itself and not the actual phone or ICS.
SOLUTION (worked for me):
1) Reboot the phone.
2) When 'HTC One S splash screen' appears hold down 'volume down' to enter safe mode. (Note: If you hold 'volume down' while powering on the device you may end up in a different mode. Don't panic just choose 'reboot' or 'power down' by navigating with power button and volume buttons and try again.)
3) The text "Safe mode" will appear in the lower left corner of the screen.
4) Login and uninstall any app that may be causing problems. Reboot the phone and see if the problem has disappeared, if not repeat 1-4.
Hope it helps!

Just wanted to update this thread on my reboot problem. Since the OTA update the other day, I've not had a single reboot, yet. The wifi connection / disconnection problem seems gone as well.

this is happening to me as well. Once I turn on wifi/ wifi calling the phone searches for a network then freezes up and reboots.. it keeps rebooting until I turn off wifi. This all started for me when I got the OTA 1.78 update. No idea how to fix it. blah!

That's odd. I can confirm that since the update (more than a week now?), I've had only 1 reboot whilst in 'Dolphin'. I was getting them at least daily before even when not using the phone. It's reboot in standby. All my wifi issues have gone. Wifi now seems to work perfectly.
I use the phone quite heavily. I'm pretty convinced that the update has fixed or at least significantly improved the issues I was experiencing. Let's hope it didn't break thinks for others who were not having the issues in the first place!
<oh, and btw - I do use internet calling (only in the last week though since the update)>
