Since a week my s100 freezes on the weirdest moments, like when i want to make a call, it freezes, when i want to open a message it freezes, when i'm in the menu, it freezes.
Now I tried three different upgrades, but the problem keeps coming back :?.. Is there a way to format the whole hard disk and reinstal everything (just like my pc :roll: )
I called with Qtek Netherlands, but they told me this problem is not on the guarantee because i could have used the wrong upgrades.. And its not very cheap to let them make my mda so maybe someone could help me with this so I dont have to send the phone to Qtek for repair, and save a lot of money :wink: :?:

I had the same trouble in my S110 after making bigstorage ROM. I tried different methods to cteate it, but it didn't help. My S110 frose for about 15-30 sec. in different cases, most reciently in different settings and menus. The only way I've found to solve this problem was to upgrade device with native qtek s110 rom.
Are you installing programs after updating the ROM? In that case, you most likely are running some bad software.
After a hard reset/ROM update, try running your device for a few days without installing new programs.
No, i don't install programs. But yesterday i discovered when i dont insert my sim-card, the s100 is working much better, but it still freezes al the time. Like when I insert my simcard it takes about 1 minute before it freezes, when i dont use my simcard, the s100 is faster, but it still freezes after about 5 minutes. But the freezing dont stop until I do a soft reset .. Is there a solution ?
Sounds to me like you have a hardware problem. Reinstall the original ROM and take it in for service.
My xda 2 mini
almost the same problem with my xda ii mini but i noticed a thing my phone works perfectly allright when on an external power supply but as soon as it runs on battery and the battery level drops to about 90 % it keeps on freezing...does this imply that there is a battery problem or something else?... :roll: :?
Well, I have the same problem, here's some helpful info if anyone can track this error:
It freezes from time to time, the screen is still clear, but I cant use it in any way so I have to soft reset.

Please help us solve this one!!
I don't think 16MB of free program memory is very much...
Whenever I am experiencing any inconsistancy with my PDA, Smartphone or whatever, a hard reset is always one of my first moves. That way I have a rather good chance of finding out, if I have a soft- or hardware problem.
As I said, hard reset and run it for a few days without installing any third party software, then you will know.
Guess I'll have to try that option then, but I was hoping for another solution that didnt include just running with the default programs
So you think that it might be too little memory free? What about if I apply the big storage "tweak" then (it looks like a pain in the arse to do it though) and then allocate more memory to Programs?

Well I took my mini to the local o2 repair center they at first told me a mere software upgrade will solve this thing so I was kind of delighted. But then they called me up and told me its a circuit problem and the circuit needs to be replaced and it will cost me 70%of the phones price. My phone was under warranty still I didnt want to mess around with the circuit thing so I took it to my dealer with a friend of mine created a scene and he had to change it for me.... now my new o2 doesnt have this problem at all....

I'm not getting why they first wanted to charge you, given it is under warranty??
Bastards! :lol:
I'll give Brightpoint a ring today and see what they have to say. And I agree, it should be under warranty.
Yes it was under warranty but my imei no was missing from there records and they were not ready to acknowledge my bill as I didnt buy it from an authorised o2 dealer....
@montana
Doing the big storage tweak won't give you more RAM to run your programs. Instead it gives you more space on /Storage to store your programs, which is an entirely different thing. RAM is what we want, and can't get enough of.
Only way to get more RAM is to make sure you install as many programs as possible on either the internal /Storage (yes, the 'Big Storage' thing) or on your /Storage Card, ie SD Card. If that isn't enough for you, try checking this forum for info on how to stop the Extended ROM from installing after a hard reset, and how to manually install only the parts of it you need.
@sankalp16
Great to hear! Well, as long as you have an official invoice, I don't think it matters where you got it from. Congratulations!
Just a quick Update:
I talked to BP and they finally decided to get me a new one, took a while and a lot of persuation though....
Anyways, a few days before I was supposed to change it, I think I uninstalled QOTD--Qoute of Today and it suddenly ran like a kitten again, Im not sure it was this app that caused it so I still got the new one :lol:

Ever tried to work without an sd-card inserted? I've read several times that bad sd-cards can cause freezes...
I've recently upgraded my MDAc with the T-Mobile 1.13 ROM upgrade from their website.
Everything else seems to be fine except for ActiveSync, it's very tempremental- I managed to sync up data on the first connection but later that same day, I connected the device again and it doesn't seem to do anything except charge. I don't even see the AS tray icon either.
Anyone else had similar problems (and solutions for it)?
Thanks.
Had same type of problem myself, fix was to shut down Activesync on computer completly and deinstall, the reinstall active sync(3.8.0) connect device and give a new device name.
Ok thanks- I will give that a go.... I've got AS installed on 4 PCs :shock:
Still doesn't work- I remember actually trying re-installing AS on another machine with the same result.
Think I may have to go back to the 1.12 ROM.
Try hardresetting device sometimes it takes more than one go to get it stable!!!!!!!!!
I've tried about 5 hard resets now...
But it seems to work for the first couple of times then no more.
Another thing, I tried installing Card Export again and the icon for that also does not show up on the tray.
Anyone know if it is possible to downgrade to 1.12 with a shipped ROM?
If u get an AS connection that is stable then yes
Just to 'close' the topic; I went back to 1.12 ROM and all seems fine again.
Hello all,
A simple question.
How can one tell what kind of a unit he has, is it WWE or is it ASIA or maybe another, I have bought my unit 2nd hand and since then had problems with the softwares and radio roms.
I have used WWE rom, and I just can not get all my contacts in, I have used ASIA and for a few days all was working fine, till something happens I reset the unit and either data is lost or the radio has no signal etc.
Another question, is it possible to stop the Automatic Customization after a hard reset???
Your help would be much appreciated.
WWE or Asia depends on installed ROM. Type can be Polaris 100 or Polaris 200, AFAIK, and is visible during hard reset.
What ROM are you using now? Looks like trouble with ROM or bad device.
Customization can be stopped, if I remember correctly, but you should check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355277&highlight=Polaris+tips+tricks
Hi,
Many thanks.
For the moment I am using a cooked rom Khanx 1.6 Pro.
I was really fed up with the Original Rom as I said it was fine for a few days, working smoothly, even backups by SPB were fine, and suddenly one day the unit froze and I had to reset after the rest nothing worked, all data lost.
Even after Hardreseting I was having problems with 'VDDemon' each time, only after re-installing the rom for a few times I was able to go back to working with it.
I mainly use the unit for telephone (ofcourse), mail, notes and sms.
By the way when I enter bootloader, I can see POLA100 MFG, and the SPL-2.20.Olinex, CPLD-2.
And what I meant about the Automatic ..., when you hard reset the unit you get a windows saying that in 3 seconds and automatic instal is beginning, how can one stop this instal????????
So really I am not even having fun with it at all.
OK, Pola 100 is here too, but SPL is original HTC.
Could you try device for few days with "bare" ROM, meaning no other software installed? Maybe it's software incompatibility.
For stoping customization check thread I mentioned, think it's described there. But I might be wrong, it could be some another thread. In any case, I remember reading about it here and a way how it can be stopped.
My Polaris is stable as stable Windows device can be...

I am repeatedly facing the following problem.
When a call arrives, the contact pops up on the screen almost immediately, but it takes around 5 or 6 rings from the callers end for me to hear the ring on my phone.
Eg. You call me and i will see your name on my screen but it will seem for you as if i picked your call only after 6 rings, but only then my phone rings!! HELP me a lot of people are complaining that i am not picking the call immediately due to this...
Never faced this problem in wm 6.1 or earlier versions.
Somebody kindly assist me
Thanks in advance.
Hi !
I had the same problem. I think it happened when the screen was locked.
It got better after upgrading to a 23001 build.
Which build do you have on your phone?
greetz
Hi flushbeer! Thank you very much for your prompt response! Appreciate it.
I am using [July 4th][PDACorner] Ultimate-X2.V5 -23001|M2D|CHome|Enhanced Version
I even tried TPC Elite prior to that!
And yes u r right i think it happens when screen is locked. Even otherwise i think it happens.
Am using the 23001.x build only!
Thanks again buddy!
Weird... I use the same ROM and this is the FIRST ROM where I don't have this problem.
(I tried many 6.5 ROMs before and with all of them I had this Problem)
greetz
Sorry guys please read the rules, if you have problems post on the threads where you get your ROMs
Mods, please close this thread
sorry guy...
but i don't think this problem ist rom related.
in my opinion it ist build-related and therefore a more or less generic problem.
but it's not my thread anyhow
Hey it aint fair, nobody answers my question anywhere (( If only anyone can answer this.
Maybe it's becoz you are running some software that is not compatible with WM65. Like some builds of MS Voice Command. But you have to sort it out by yourself.
Edit: The way to find problem apps for your ROM:
Backup all your data;
Hard reset;
Install your apps one by one;
Every time after installed a new soft, soft reset, and check the problem occurs or not, if not, install next one, soft reset and check again, until you got the problem occured again.
Then you know it's the last installed app crashes with something. (Maybe not crash with the ROM, but other apps installed before it. To sort this out, you have to change the sequence of cab install and test again. For example, after already know the probs app, hard reset and only install this see what happen.)
What if you did not find it until installed last app? Congratulations, you already solved the problem.
This is the most foolish(time consuming) way, but it works on most cases for probs sorting.
Edit2: BTW, last time when I have similiar probs as yours, by using above-mentioned method, I sorted it out that it was caused by MSVC. (Edit3: Also if my memory is still correct, another badass for WM6.5 maybe the WM6.5 lockscreen,)
What radio are you using? Did you change radios and see if that makes a difference?
Hy,
I ve got the problem that suddenly my TP shows unusually hanging after a few minutes playing around. If i do a softreset then it hangs on the splash screen and nothing happens. I can do a hr then and the same story begins. After tast appeared i flashed some other roms to be sure that its not depending from the rom. Also i restored different backups, with all its the same... i fear that a part of the memory is defect ... Any ideas how to test the memory or other suggestions? thx in advance.... i dont want to use my microwave

Did this happen suddenly or did you do something before it happened (eg install something, etc)?
Mine just today won't turn on, I had it off all day and now it just sits on the splash screen.
Trying some things, if I figure anything out I'll let you know.
No, i didnt do anything special today or yesterday, but a week ago i set it up completly new, cause i had equal problems.... to set it up completly new with all progs and cosmetic "operations" costs me nearly one week so i dont want to do it again ...
If i find a way to solve, i will post here too

I flashed EnergyROM (booted into the tricolor screen by holding down Power and Volume Down), and it seems to be working.
Youre the lucky one, congrats...
I have a similar problem. The only change/new install is the updated version of Microsoft MyPhone. Now my TP will not connect to my telephone provider: T-Mobile. It just tries and tries but never connects.
Also, sometimes when I try to open any program, I get the error message that the certificate cannot be read. a soft reset fixes this but this problem is driving me crazy.
Is this another Microsoft update ****up?
same here: today more than 3 times problems with certificate or similar message ... thinking of the last timebomb in my old romeos rom ... was no fun..
Borisku,
Are you running Microsoft MyPhone? If so, did you do the software update within the past 4 days?
i do, but i didnt update ... ??? This morning my TP hung again, and i tried to sr it.... seemed to work until tp vibrates 3 times and then nothing anymore, no screen, no button, nothing
.... took out battery, left it out for 30 minutes, then i could HR again and restore my backup... since then no problems.... do you think it could run too long, getting too hot or something like this??
Greetz
Boris..
Edit: was too fast just 1 minute after i wrote that, tp hangs while in connection to active sync.... hr now, will test how it runs with pure romeos2 for 2 days now... rport follows
Edit II: The last days i always flashed from SD Card... i will now try to flash ROMEoS2 from PC ... maybe theres a difference, especially cause the text at the end of flashing from SD was confused. there were mor than one words at one place one the screen, and i found i typing on the screen RaphSimg.nbh, although the file is named as usual raphimg.nbh (without the "s" in the centre...)
I hope i m not too early: i think i solved the prob, maybe that helps somebody & prevents a tp from ending in a microwave
in preparing to bury my tp in the microwave i flashed back to the german stock rom or - correct - to the official update that can be loaded from the HTC Homepage; it contains not only the Rom but also radio & Splash Screen. I flashed it to my tp and was prepared to undo Hard SPL, but it gave it a chance.... and it ran like a VW beetle, flashed back to ROMeOS2, it runs.... i will wait till tomorrow & hope that it will not change to freeze or change clock Font colour partly as it did before...
Hope it will help somebody...
Greetz
Boris
Edit: its now 14th of december and it runs like a charm... seems like the failure is gone through flashing to stock ROM & then flashing ROMeOS again
Still is okay ...
