[Q] Treo freezing up please help - Palm Treo 750

I'll try a different approach, my treo 750 started freezing up during texting, then it started taking a little time when I refreshed the screen for the time to adjust, any advice. I've successfully downloaded ms 6.5 but seems to still be a problem. Is there a fix for this freezing? Thanks

Well, you could try to downgrade to WM5 and then upgrade back to WM6, other than that the Treo may have reached it's end of life. Or it could be like mine where the battery is a problem, like it needs to be replaced.

god!! thanks for a reply mangatron, finally, I thought everything was fixable, maybe I'll try the battery from my new(er) 750 and see what happens. Thanks again for the reply.
While I have you, is there any progress on a reliable wm 6.5 rom? I've tried them all on here and all seem buggy. I really prefer that rom to 6.1. Thanks again for the reply.

WM6 - Where'd the camera app go?

Been running WM6 since it first leaked. Been running it without the AT&T crapware for a few weeks now.
This morning, the camera app seems to have disappeared.
Anyone have any ideas, short of a hard reset?
TIA.
camera application Treo 750
Well, I've the same problem, but even before upgrading to Windows Mobile 6.
From one day to the other, the link for the camper application was gone.
So it's not possible to use the device.
Anyone, who can help us?
I too have randomly lost my camera!
Just updated to 2.25 but that didn't help!

jog dial light up - Roll back WM5 help

Hi All,
I used the perfect english wm6 rom on my 2125. Everything is perfect but one thing. The joystick lights up my phone when it is locked. The thing is sensitive and will be popping on all day killing my battery. I search for hours for a fix but I cannot find one.
I may need to roll back to WM5. I see HTC has the ROM posted but I am unsure what steps to do. Can I roll back? Any guides out there?
Thanks

to go back to wm5...
just connect to active sync then, reflash any wm5 TORNADO rom that you like...
Thanks. I got my last issue worked out and can stay wm6. At first autokeylock was not effecting the keyboard and joystick. I enabled the screensaver and it works perfect now. I have a blackjack but actually like this phone better.

DEAR ALL:
Last week, I flash my kaiser to a new ROM with ver 19199(wm6.1), it work very well until today evening. there is a strange problem with my kaiser.
The problem is : THE SMS Inbox date is alway wrong display. for example:
TODAY is 7 MAR 2008 AND the TIME is 4:00 AM. NOW ,I send a SMS to my kaiser. Soon my kaiser received the SMS, it display" 8 MAR 2008,7:00 PM. It is absolutely wrong, there is only few second interval.
At first, I think this is a ROM bug, so I reflash an other ROM (6.1 19174)and reflash the same radio. but the problem still exist.
Now, I feel this is a HARDWARE problem , I have no idea, help me, please, thinks very much!
in addition, the SMS in the SEND BOX and draft BOX is with nomal display , only INBOX SMS have this problem.

I get the same problem as well. But it's only with certain text messages and voicemail messages
I am waiting the solution, it confuse me all night
Eather it is your operator that has the wrong timezone set (i had this happen to me) or maby you should check out your own timezone on the phone. Hope this helps
first thinks for the above answer.
the timezone on my phone is right.
I just reflash my rom to 6.0 18538, the SMS with normal display . So this is a bug with 6.1 rom(19174 & 19199), not a hardware problem.
I hope the boss to solve it.
I think this is register table problem , can modify the register talble to solving it.
NOW, I export the register table of the ROM 19199 & 18538, and hope finding the key through comparing them;
I don't know this way is correct, or exist a more efficiency way.
I realise I had a naive idea , that is impossible to solve this problem through my above idea.
Tell me the what can I do ! help.
Nobody hnows? ??
Not only is there differences in the time .... do you realized that you stated there are 2 different MONTHS ???
one is "MAR" .... the other one is "MAY" !!! is this a typo or is it fact ??
The timezones might seem to be a possible guess/solution.
but if there's a typo regarding the months as well ... that could be the reason why you get no responses !!!

I made a mistake , now I correct it , It is 3th month, not 5th month.
I assure the timezone setting is correction, that should be a bug of the WM6.1 ROM
Hi,
I too am having this issue, where the time is incorrect on the incoming sms but when I reply it shouws the correct time stamp on my sent message. I am using Duty 6.1 rom no cube released March 4. It's is an inconsistant error as it does not happen all the time, only once or twice so far.
Anyone getting this error??? I am testing it out by sending txt messages to myself and notice that the time I receive them is stated as 4 hours prior (ex: if i receive it at 1pm, it shows 5pm)
Anyone hav any ideas on how to fix it?

Yup.
I had the same problem as well. Currently back on WM 6.0 (the ship version for Rogers).
Exactly as you said it, my text messages were approx. 4 hours prior. (I would receive the SMS at 5 p.m. but it shows 1 p.m. - You stated the other way around)
And before I noticed it with actual text messages (it was working previously then all of a sudden changed) Rogers offers a service (WhoCalled) and at that time they were 5 hours behind
hmmm, ****. I don't want to reflash AGAIN.... but maybe no choice. I'll keep trying to figure it out for now.
btw, how are you liking the Rogers ROM? hows the battery life and reception?

meehh
it's ok. I came back to this because I found that there was a lot of instability issues with any of the 6.1 roms out there
i'm just giving this a shot for a few days to see how it is
the radio it comes with isn't so great, especially not for GPS
I seem to have a lot of issues with all of my radio's I try.. bad luck I tell you

Ahh i c. I'm using Dutty's 6.1 ROM (released Marck 4) and radio 1.58.21.23 and have good battery life, great gps and reception. I noticed ur in T.O., im in Ottawa.... so if your gonna try a 6.1 ROM again I'd suggest you give the radio mentioned above a shot..
Ok, well after flashing a few roms and testing it IS obviously a WB 6.1 issue (to say the least).
Hopefully we can narrow it down a bit more....
I'm using a ATT Tilt, on the Rogers network in Canada. And using Dutty's new rom (as stated in my signature).
What model are you guys using??
If it is a Tilt issue with 6.1 ROMs thyen this should be moved to the Tilt specific issues thread.
Please post back.
Also, Can someone (whoever is able to) change the name of this thread to reflect that the problem is SMS Time Stamp being incorrect, not DATE? thanks
Thanks

I was working with two of the 6.1's
I tried the original shipped 3.02 and dutty's March 8 - I liked the original shipped one, Dutty's unfortunately did not run well for some reason. I found that it hagged quite a bit and a lot
the Polaris radio wasn't good for me.. a lot of the 6.1 Radio's seemed fine on my end, but the person on the other end could hear a lot of static and crackling. The new Niki radio was great for GPS and everything, but it would always cut out during a sentence when talking to someone and i couldn't hear what they said. Sad, i know.
As for the time bug, Dutty's I noticed it with every SMS, whereas the original Shipped 3.02 was just only for the "Who Called" SMS messages.
Oh, BTW, I hope you're not painted up like a Sens fan in that picture LOL

When you call Rogers, try to say that you're a student in like IT or whatever and ask what makes Name Display work. If we can find that out when get get it out of the Rogers ROM and we'll be able use it in other ROMS (hopefully)

Problems with official wm6.1 release

Hi all,
I have just upgraded to the official WM6.1 release. First everything was working fine, but after a little while phone began to dial numbers like crazy and the device became unresponsive.
Any thoughts?
Has anyone else experienced the same?
Many thanks,
Chris
If I understand your symptons, I think I had the very same problem some time ago.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=384791
I only fixed it by getting a replacement. Later, it turned out that my photo button was 'broken'.
Check all your buttons, maybe the problem is situated there. Maybe not...

I think there were other reports of this in one of the two main threads on the official release. Have you installed any other keyboards/SIPs?
I wouldn't blame this on hardware yet, especially if you don't have the problem with other ROMS.
Gents, I also flased the new official rom but have had a number of occassions where the device has stopped responding. Soft reset is the only thing that resolves. Sometimes it freezes, as if it is 'hanging', then suddenly works again. Not sure why. Tried a hard reset but still have same problems. Thinking bout flashing back to the WM 6 rom. Any thoughts?

Hard reset before customization. aka At the screen where is says "tap the screen to begin to setup your device."
If that still doesn't work then after you are done with the customization flash the 1.65.16.25 radio and see if that works.
skype and tcpmp dont work. lots of freezes and lots of error reports wanting to be sent to microsoft. the most adventurous firmware uograde that i have ever experienced and it ate up the whole of my sunday and it is yet to eat up more of my time.
very irresponsible of htc to release something as unripe as this. i doubtv anything got tested before the release.

An application not working is not HTC's fault. This is an OS upgrade and vendors need to upgrade their apps. I don't believe I have found an official/leaked 6.1 ROM that DOES run Skype....only cooked versions.

Hi,
I installed some other keyboard some time ago. But that was before flashing to this new upgrade. I suppose that they will be gone when doing so.
The thing is that it is working fine for some time, about 10 minutes after i flashed to this new upgrade and it begins to dial numbers.
If I do a soft reset the problem begins when I press any key.
Many thanks for any help!
where do you get offical 6.1?
where do you get the offical wm 6.1?
i go to the HTC website and log into the E-club click phone software updates and nothing happens....
i went to att website and cant find anything im actually talking to an ATT rep now but its prty obvious they have no idea what i am talking about as the girl responded with youll need to plug it into a Microsoft computer,

I had exact same issues, the device dialed all kinds of numbers, alphabets, etc and would not respond for about 5-7 seconds at random times.
I hear someone got that issue fixed by changing SPL and/or chaning Page Pool size to 16MB.
I hope someone can confirm that and make that a sticky before I revert back to this ROM, I am using 3.02 now.

Didn't change the SPL but changed to 16MB pagepool. The intermittent sluggishness is cured about 90%. Wish there was way to fix this 100%

This is the same issue I had. The freeze ups were driving me crazy. I got rid of it and am very happy camper again.
Beware changing SPL...
The file on rapidshare, SSPL-KAIS.exe may be infected with a virus. Trend identified it containing the PAK_Generic.005 virus/malware. Your mileage may vary...

i am aware of that. but somehow very popular 3rd party software just should be taken into consideration, not to annoy most of the updaters.
apart from the random unresponsivenesses, crashes and freezes, what i find pretty unacceptable, is that you cannot restore a backup from the old system although i was given backup software from htc itself. and we are talking about an upgrade from 6.0 to 6.1. had they called it 7, i would have understood the incompatibility.
i am new to the windows mobile world, so i guess i need to keep shut and swallow what is being offered as i dont have any other choice yet.
but the future is looking bright and we will look back at these occasions and have a laugh when sometime soon everything will be functioning seamlessly with the linux based android and palm operating systems. i heard that nokia too wants to join the fun. lets see.
for now, i will need to revert back to 6.0

(problem) restaring loops

hello guys, i recently upgrade my two friends kaisers from there stock att rom to anryls 21202 6.5 builds, i follow the wiki to the last letter, but both kaisers are experiencing some odd problem, both kaisers after a month or so of been upgrade started to go onto a infinite restart loop, both went till the today screen and imitiatly(typos galor) restart they did this loop until both batteries were dead, i recommende them to leave the battery out from the devices for a night or so, they both did and after that both phones rebooted normaly and performed normaly foe about 2 weeks, after this time the infinite restart loop started again, im out of ideas here guys, if anyone can help out i would greatly apreciated.
regards

Just reflash to a better build! Sometimes kooked ROM can do that after a period of time!
I had a somewhat similar problem. What worked for me was flashing the latest HTC ROM for the AT&T Tilt (flash whichever ROM is recommended for the Kaiser from HTC) and then re-flashed a cooked 6.5. Dunno why 6.5 has that issue, but flashing an HTC ROM helped mine. I now run TPC Elite 3.1 without any problems.

i know that lol, but restaring loops mean that something might be wrong with the onboard power supply chip or the battery its self, il try soberguy's solution, anyways thanks for both reply's appreciated.

I freaked at first, too. I couldn't get the damn phone to do anything, no matter what I tried. In a fit of rage it almost hit the wall. I spent hours frantically reflashing all the ROMs I could find, to no avail. Flashing over to the official HTC ROM, and then reflashing TPC Elite 3.1 did the trick!
I'm positive you'll be fine and there's no actual hardware issue with your device.

The devices are not mine xD, the two kaisers are from some friends of mine, i own a touch pro , im still trying to contact them both and tell them to do the oem rom flashing thing, but haven't got a hold of them, i will soon though.
Its probably a memory leak that is causing, sometimes kooked ROM's tend to do that. Just use a different ROM.
I had a similar problem sometime ago, coupled with random key presses. After reflashing, installing HardSPL again and whatnot, I found that the problem was humidity ...
I lived in Bangladesh. Holding the phone close to the AC and keeping it out of my pocket during the humid season fixed it. Dont know if it is the same for your friends ...
