My Himalaya not responding after sometime I turn it off

I flash the my hima with the TofClock 2.01a32WWE ROM, and it works fine, and I'm very glad with it.
But now, some time I turn off my hima by pressing the power button, the screen went black, after a while, I want to light it to operate, the hima keeping black, and the hima cannot operate any more, and I tried to call my phone(hima), the hima didn't ringing. Also, SMS, MMS, all function dead. But the same time, the 2 leds, Blue and Green/Red, flash like normal.
At this time, the only way to operate hima normally was soft-reset it by press the hole with my pen.
:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Is there someone experience this situation, and is there some way to solve the problem.
:idea: :idea:
ps: in the Settings --> System --> Power --> Advanced page, the 2 options can set "Turn off device if not used for" some minutes, when "turn off" time out, the same problem occurs like above, I called it Auto Turn Off
My device is Dopod 696 (Maybe Chinese mainland version of O2 XDA II).
:wink: :wink:

I also experienced similar problems, but with the 64 version.
After a while, when I tried to turn it back on, it began to act strange. First the automatic turn off backlight option was every time reset to 10 sec and then after a day or 2 I noticed that the screen was sometimes still showing some black lines. Changing the volume still gave the corresponding sounds, but nothing else seemed to work (or wasn't visible). Normal operating mode was only reinstated after a soft-reset.
I gave it a hard reset and restored a backup (using SPB). It's operating again, but it already contains the 10 sec change.
So probably have to start clean again and install everything from the beginning, but before I do I would like to make sure it will not happen again.
Appears like the Power Off option is screwed, no matter in which way I use it (button or a program).
Anyone have any thoughts on it?

zplei

with last rom and other

I have the same problem too, the only ay to have it back is softreset

i was using spb to toggle display mode.

someone said can be solve by reegedit. but how to.

anyone found a solution..?

Script cookers, please help!

Hey all, I am having an issue with my Tilt locking up after it goes into sleep mode or stand-by mode. Not sure which one, but it happens when I'm on a call or when I soft-press the power button, to force stand-by mode. I already disabled the "Fast sleep" & "Sleep", but it sucks the battery like crazy. I want to leave that feature on, but after a call ends after the phone goes to sleep, all I get is a black screen, like it's in sleep mode. All buttons don't respond, including the "power" button, so all I can do it a soft-reset. One thing I figured is that when I lock it BEFORE it goes into sleep/stand-by mode, I can still access it if I need to by waking it up.
I don't want to do a hard-reset right now, for those who are thinking that, & it was working fine on my stock AT&T rom, but noticed it on Dutty's 6.1 rom and now, Sleuth's 3.03 rom. I was wondering if there was a way to program WM6.1 to lock the device before it goes into sleeps/stand-by mode. I installed MortScript, but have no idea how to attach that file to run BEFORE an automatic sleep mode, forced by WM6. Any help or suggestions would be great!!! Thanks!!

This is a well known issue with the Tilt/Kaiser. It particullarly affects devices when BT or WIFI is left on & unattended.
I have used both Dutty & Sleuths 6.1 ROMs on both my devices, a Tilt & a TYTNII, without this issue occuring.
It did occur on the stock ROM, but only when left to sleep while using WIFI, GPS or BT. This can especially happen if you mess with the power properties of the devie with KaiserTweak, etc.

VOX Getting shut down automatically

Hi,
My VOX sometimes gets shutdown automatically. It happens at least once in two days. And whenever it shutsdown, I can feel that the handset has become slightly hot. I need to remove the battery and put it back to turn on the phone again.
But one strange thing I noticed is that, if the bluetooth was on when the phone went down, I can see the bluelight blinking even when the phone seems to be shutdown.
Do you guys know what could be causing this?
My Radio Version is 4..13.41_02.88.90 and OS is 5.2.1236 (Build 17741.0.2.1)
Thanks pals!

Sounds like it's over-heating possibly? If the BT LED is blinking blue, then the device is still on, I think you have some software that is either causing it to run at full load or causing a soft reset.

hum, maybe this has something to do with the problem already reported in some posts of some VOX's
the screen goes black, but the phone remains on
normaly if you wait a couple of seconds, and try to mess with the phone again, it will be alright,
sometimes i even have to remove the battery
some say the problem could be overheating as u say, but until now, i havent found any solution for this, i also am facing the same problem

Same problem for me when turning on the Wifi, but the phone turns off completly and the battery showing empty after turning the phone on, I have to remove the battery each time!
But when it's connected, my phone runs perfectly.
Maybe I have to change my battery, no?

I don't think in my case the phone is on (except for BT light blinking). Otherwise it should be in a big hung state where it is not able to respond to keyboards, power key or any interface at all.
Next time I encounter this problem, I will try calling my own number to see whether the radio is on.
I have been using this vox since last 8 months, but in the last couple of months I have encountered quite a lot of problems like radio repeatedly getting turned off, first call after restart hanging (not consistent but happens most of the time I restart the phone and try to make calls with in the first 20 seconds after bootup) etc.
Do you think an upgrade 6.1 would do any good?
Thanks again!!

I was having that problem too. I tried upgrading to WM6.1 and upgrading the radio, nothing worked. I sent it in and they replaced the mainboard, but now it seems to be worse. I just got it back though, so I haven't called them about it yet. I'm just looking around to see if it could be a battery issue.

My phone restart issue was mainly a hardware or loose contact issue. Once the phone fell down and after that whenever there was a long press on 0, * or # keys, the phone would restart.
After two days my phone fell down once again from my hand and this issue got resolved forever. Lucky me!

My S710 HTC original, shut down every day at 00.16. In the past was at 02.46, and I discover it since during my trip in asia I found the phone off.
More over the alarm is not reliable and cannot be used for this reason.
The following application are installed:
- Customisation from HTC for my operator TIM
- microsoft Office mobile upt
- pmCleanSP
- spWZTools
- Skype
- Tom Tom
HTC service told me to flash it with Rom update.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Suspending doesn't work any more

Hi,
after upgrading to WM 6.1 a first while everything was ok. But after a while suspending didn't work - when pressing the power switch nothing happens. After about an hour the display goes black and I can't get the pda to work any more without a soft reset. But when I receive a phone call or an sms, the display gets bright again and I can continue working.
Do you know how to fix that?
Thank you in advance!!

is it a ROM issue? the ROM you installed might be helpful to some here.

Hi,
I tried the original O² (German) Rom, the newest O² (German) Rom and the newest "Kitchen" - no matter what Rom I choose the problem still persists

I just detected the source of the problem: The powerswitch doesn't work any more - I can't event turn the device on or off by pressing it.
I don't want to send it back because that needs so much time and I don't have any replacement for the 3-4 weeks it need.
Do you have any ideas what else I can try (without endanger the warrenty)?
Thank you so much in advance!

You know I never use that button. Used to use it regularly when I first got the phone but not anymore. However, is there a way to turn on the phone without that button. I would send it back in but might be worth to see if any other guys here have ideas.

power button issues
got the same problem with my orbit 2, the power button has gone west. pain in the rear as it drains the battery fast, even with the backlight off. anyone any ideas for a fix, would rather not be without my phone for any length of time
cheers

TP keeps turning itself off every 30 seconds

Hi
Unless I'm actively using it my TP keeps turns itself off after 30 seconds no matter what power settings I use (and despite a factory reset and SPB restore). This isn't too much of an issue, except when I'm trying to use GPS/Satnav (TT7) whilst driving, where turning itself off is a real pain.
Could anyone please suggest how this issue can be resolved?
Many thanks in advance...

Is it physically turning off, requiring you to press the on key, let it reboot, or,
is it going to sleep, and you press the on key to wake it up?
If it is the latter, go to start>settings>system>power, click on the
advanced tab and change the backlight & power off settings there.
If it actually turning off, sounds like it might be a defective phone.

Thanks for your reply!
I've repeatedly altered the power settings but it makes no difference at all, if I set it to turn off at any given time (or not at all) it'll still turn off after 30 seconds. And to claify, it doesn't reboot, it just turns the screen off. It *feels* like a software issue, because it'll stay working forver as long as I tap the screen occasionally, something somewhere just counts down 30 seconds if i don't and turns off the screen...

The max time you can put on it is 5 min. The default setting out of the box is 30 seconds --which sound like what you currently have.
Set the "On Battery Power: Turn off backlight if device is not used for xxx MIN). Make sure first that that's checked, and select the drop down.
Eventually --to conserve battery power--, it will 'sleep'.
Your NAVIGATION software should have a setting to over-ride this to NEVER TURN OFF DISPLAY WHILE NAVIGATION.
Aside from that, there is no other way to keep the backlight on --unless it's plugged into a power outlet.

Many thanks again for your reply; As I mentioned previously I've already changed the power settings settings (frequently) and I'm definitely not on the 30-second default, no setting appears to make any difference, be it 5 minutes or 'never turn off'. It also happens when the 'phone is plugged into a power source too.
(And I have got the 'don't turn off whilst navigating' box ticked for the satnav but the issue applies generally, not just to the satnav, that's just where it's most irritating).
Is there any possibility something has changed in the registry to over-ride the control panel settings in this way?

How about doing a hard reset and not doing a spb restore? You realize that all you did when you restored the phone was restore the bug, right?
Edit: I doubt it will work, but you can try the backlight cab. It will restore all the stock backlight reg settings if yours are messed up.

Hi,
I have same problem as you. TP keeps turns itself off after 30 sec!!
And I am using TT7. So this problem is so annoying.
I tried hard resetting and install programs one by one. and check if TP is keeping backlight on or not. And I installed TT7 and worked perfect.( display is always on)
That was yesterday.
Today I was using TP, it happened again.
The registry setting is still 3min on battery, uncheck on AC power.
30 sec problem happens both status.
This thing did not happen before Raphael_Cingular_US_5.11.502.2_Radio_Sign.
TP worked fine for a while on this radio.
Now even I check " NEVER TURN OFF DISPLAY WHILE NAVIGATION" box in some apps. TP turn off backlight.
I tried backlight.cab, that did not work and still turning off.
(thanks anyway )

Somebody please help us out.

Did you try the cab? If that doesn't work, just flash another rom.

I am also having this problem. I did get it to stop once by going in to the registry and actually editing it. But it started to do it again after a wile. I am trying it again today and see if it work. I am using a trial version of BestRegEdit and was wonder if it could have changed it back because it was a trial. So if some one elce wants to give it a shot it us under HKey_Current_user\ControlPanel\Power\Display and you will change that 30 to what ever amount of time you want. I pick 0 because i never want it to turn off. Hope this helps Oyeah, does anyone know of a free resitry editor? This is my last day on the BestRegEdit Thanks

Uh, total commander, regedit, dotfred's task manager and probably a few more.

Thanx,
I tried cab, and did not work. So I installed test rom and works fine now. NO 30 seconds backlight off now.
[March 1st] New ATT test rom Radio 1.12.25.19 OS AKU 1.4.6 Build 20771
I will use this until new "Signed" and Works Ok radio comes.
* Recently I use resco explorer and regedit addon. Free app: regedit.Mrln works fine, I think. I have been using these for keyboard layout section.

Glad you solved it, I had an interesting problem, similar to the screen issue, wonder it it might be related. I flashed to a new rom over the weekend, and no matter what I did, the backlight would turn off after 10 seconds. You could reset it to 30 in the power profile, but after a reboot, it would revert back to 10 seconds. Reflahsed it, and after the flash, when it starts loading the customizations, it would freeze. Flashed again, and it hung at customization again! Downloaded the rom again, deleted the old one, and flashed and it worked and the backlight would stay put!
Maybe the one you downloaded was corrupt?
Anyway, glad you got it working.
P.S. The rom isn't an "official" that I downloaded, it was one of the 6.5 that the cooks on the rom page whipped up. I think it was just a corrupted download.

This issue has happened to me a few times. even while i'm still using the phone and typing the screen goes off.
very annoying.
I found it only happened to me using EnergyROM. when I flashed to a different rom the problem was solved.
recently I flashed back to the newest version of EnergyROM again (after the previous ROM decided to hard reset all by itself) and this issue happened again in the first hour!
I really wish I could find a usable ROM for once and for all

My Case: WMWifiRouter was it!
This happend even when TP under Test rom env. I just gave up and installed latest version cause this ver is less stressfull.
Luckly 30 sec issue did not happend for a while until I installed WMWifiRouter.
Just after I install V1.50 30 sec thing and happend.
KB0907027: [BUG] v1.50 backlight timeout issue
http://support.wmwifirouter.com/knowledge/KB0907027/
I Installed V1.52 and now works fine and no backlight problem.
If you installed WMWifirouter check the link.

I use EnergyROM as well and i noticed that right after a fresh flash, if you tried to modify certain settings using the gui (i.e. alarm times, connection settings etc) they wouldnt stick - perhaps a direct registry edit using one of the tools previously mentioned might force the device to remember the changes? this worked for me when i had trouble with my alarm times not being saved.
ive also heard that sometimes a soft-reset isnt enough to commit changes to the registry - i.e. once making a reg edit, cold boot the device - that is press and hold the power button and turn it entirely off.
hope this helps
