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.

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

Unique problem - Dialer screen pops up whenever I switch on phone

Hi everyone,
Im facing a very unique and highly irritating problem on my phone. I own a HTC P3350 (Love) handset with a built-in WM6.0. It was working fine till yesterday. Suddenly since this morning whenever i switch on my cell or get a msg or miss call, the dialer screen comes on. (Its as if the green dialer button is stuck, i checked if thats d problem, but that isnt the case).
I even restored my registry and stuff from an old backup i had made. Even that didnt help.
Is it a hardware or software problem? What should I do about it?
All suggestions are welcome. Please help me.

Welcome to forums
Perhaps a hard reset could help
Good luck,

@orb3000: i tried hard resetting too, twice actually. But the problem wasnt solved. Any more ideas??

another thought crossed my mind. What if i assigned some other action to the dialer button and see if it still persists?? i can then rule out if its the hard button problem.. Think it'll work??

The best way to know is testing it!
And what happen if you remove your SIM card? problem persists?

Ya it persists even if sim card is out. Im so frustrated that i'll start plucking my hairs in some time. If a msg is open when i switch it on, it starts dialing d no automatically. Its so damn problematic.
Will the company repair or do something about it? Its 8 months old..
Could it be a virus??

Sorry I dont know what else to recommend, but hopefully another more experienced member can give you better advice.
Be patient!!

oh.. thanks all the same..

can u do me a favour and try to boot the phone up wth the headphones plugged in???

no that didnt work either,,

i just hard reset my phone and i have removed the storage card from the slot. i have not restored from my backup nor have i synced yet. my phone is as good as new with no contacts or appointments. And now the problem has disappeared!! But that doesnt help coz at some point of time i'll have to restore my device which might bring back the problem.

are you using the ones that came with phone and do they double up as handsfree
my line of thought as i had a kaiser with a headphone fault were the wires that made the button to call work were faulty
this meant that everytime the headphones wires were twisted a certain way the dialer kept popping up and dialling numbers
so thgere fore if ur handsfree was connected and then the phone came up without dialer this would mean that there is a hardware fault
my only suggestions now is to flash to a different rom
if the problem persisits then its a hardware fault and youll need to contact vendor or seller

Hi everyone. Thanks for all your suggestions. But none of them seemed to work. I'll just write my problem in detail once again:
My phone - HTC P3350 (Love) with WM 6.0
ROM version: 3.17.720.3 WWE
ROM date: 21/01/08
Radio version: 02.94.90
Protocol version: 4.1.13.44
ExtROM version: 3.17.720.103
My exact problem -
1. Whenever i bring back my phone from stand-by mode by pressing power button, the green call receive button somehow gets pressed from the 'inside' and depending on what window is open the action takes place. For eg: if im on my today screen, the dialer screen opens up; if im on the dialer screen, the last dialed no starts getting dialed; AND THE WORST PART - if someone calls me when my phone is on stand-by mode, the call automatically gets received (coz the green cal receive button virtually gets pressed)!!
2. The super-added problem is that if i press the power button to put the phone into standby when im talking to someone, the speaker phone gets activated and then exactly 3 seconds later the call hangs up.
The problems are so weird and 'funny' that im getting to think its a virus doing all this.
What i tried doing -
1. i hard reset my phone and restored using sprite backup. The problem persisted.
2. So next i hard reset again and restored using PIM backup and restored only the contacts. The problem disappeared for a day but reappeared.
3. So i hard reset again and this time i didnt restore and i also removed my storage card. And now the problem has become unpredictable! It appears sometimes and sometimes the phone is completely normal.
Im trying hard to find a pattern as to when it appears for eg: whenever the battery is low; only during the evening, etc. I dont know but i've not found out any fixed pattern (which i expected if it was to be a virus)
My current status -
I disabled the 'Turn off device if not used for' option in Advanced Power settings. And i never put my phone on standby. I just use the device lock option. But the problem is that battery running out twice faster.
This has just temporarily treated the problem but the basic problem still remains....

[Q] HTC TD2 Power On-Off - Virus?

My TD2 keeps wanting to turn off - the power off screen comes up (do you want to turn off your device?). If I select yes, it shuts down and immediately restarts. If I select no, it pops up again within a few minutes.
The device doesn't respond to the power button. I can't perform a hard reset, soft reset works OK, but problem continues. IF left sitting, the phone goes to sleep but wakes up soon after and the power dialog comes up again. If I remove and replace the battery, device starts OK but problem continues.
It may be coincidence, but this started hapenning the day after I (stupidly) opened a strange MMS and tried to play the attached "video" - which didn't play.
Haven't tried to reflash ROM - not sure what ROM I should be looking for. Current ROM version is 2.31.841.6 (64646) WWE. Should I just look for that? (This is a Telstra TD2 that I have had for bout a year - bought online)
Thanks.

[Q] Green screen meaning booting trouble

Hello,
I'm using my TP for two months and there were no serious problems with it since now. Today I was looking for some things by Opera browse, when - suddenly - SMS arrived [yeah, that sort of things happens]. Because of my ability to destroy everything connected [bad word..] with electricity, WM [original ROM, version 6.1] froze - after few minutes it was still insensitive to any touch [and button, including 'power off'], so I pulled out a battery and turned device on. And here starts the drama - Windows didn't want to boot, just showed green sreen with WM logo, part of start bar and stayed like this for long. Now, having some more resets done, it freezes on the green screen, not showing anything else.
Ok, I know that probably the best solution would be hard reset now [actually I guess, never did it before, don't even know where to get a 'new ROM' <- don't see it on included CD]. Of course, but I have some important data there! If there's any other way to do it, or - at least - to get back things from main memory [especially messages and contacts], please tell me how. I repeat once again: it's very important for me.
Thanks in advance,
m.
