When i press the home button, the screen stays black for like 10 sec, and then shows me the lockscreen. Also when i make a call, the screen turns black and i only see my signal strenght, battery and wifi indicators. So i cant hang up after i'm done with the conversation, when people call me, i can answer, but i also cant disconnect. Sometimes the force close popup of the process com.android.phone comes up. This is very annoying, does anyone recognize this problem and know's what i can do?
I reinstalled DarKy's rom, I don't think it's a software problem.
something you might want to try to solve the phone problem is downloading a different phone app from the market and setting it as your default phone app. for example "dialer2" fpund in the market might work just fine for you
I've got a strange problem with my Touch Pro. It works well for two years and one month after end of warranty (don't ask me why) it starts freezing.
I've got standard ROM, I've made hardreset and use only device without any software installed, nothing helped. After few weeks I've noticed that it freezes mostly when some sound is played: when is playing alarm or when I'm typing in navigation with sound enabled and so on. It also freezes in some incoming calls: I was able to pick up the phone and it freezes after 2-3 seconds of the call. The call was not terminated, but I was not able to hang it - only by soft reset. It doesn't freeze in each call - it's quite unpredictable.
Later I turned off the sound and keep only vibration. Phone works without any issue. Of course, when I turn the sound again on, it freezes after a few tests...
Do you have any idea what can cause this? I'm getting angrier after each freeze and I'm sure the device will fly through the window soon if I don't cope with this...
Standard ROM as in non-custom? Do you have any additional programs installed or additional mods applied? You mentioned doing a hard reset, do you experience any issues with your TP immediately after the hard reset or only after any app installation or mods? May need to narrow it down to something more specific. I have no issues what-so-ever with a custom ROM (see my sig) nor additional mods or applications. They'll have to go after my at&t Fuze with an EMP to get me to buy another phone...
It's standard HTC ROM version 5.05.405.1 WWE with Radio 1.01.25.16. I have no problems for two years with this ROM. After the device started freezing, I've made hard reset (twice), but it obviously isn't a software issue - it froze even after clear install with no additional programs or mods applied...
When the TP is frozen, radio still works (so when it freeze in a call, I can continue talking). Sometimes it freeze when I don't answer the phone - funny is it looks like someone is still calling, even the LED is blinking, but I can't do anything. HW buttons won't work, neither power button. Display always stays turned on (as well as I can remember, it never freeze with display off). Soft reset is the only way out of this...
Yeah, I've seen that once or twice (the screen freezes but lights still blinking while the device is stationary) but not lately and not with the ROM I have installed on my at&t Fuze. Have you installed any additional apps or made and modifications? When's the last time you flashed your device? I can't promise you that flashing will solve the issue as it seems very intermittent and random but perhaps it's tied to a specific phone app or mod?
I've got same problem as You.
I was change a roms few times and still not work correctly.
Has anyone can help ?
I still think it's a hardware problem. I have no freeze for two weeks - but it's only because I'm using vibration mode instead of sound. I'll try to disconnect internal speaker to check if it's the source of the problem...
I was in the service and said that it found none of the above-mentioned defects.
They found that this may be dependent on weather conditions (humidity, conditions of work ect)
It is strange, because it rarely encounters this type of problems.
Personally, you're the first person (including me) who has this type of problems
I have not found anything on the forums in my language.
I'll try to look somewhere.
Regards.
sorry for my English
I used this radio and stopped freeze

Hi guys,
I have this great phone for 3 days now and I have a big broblem. It's losing it's sound after some playing with apps and movies shot by camera. Movies would not play, just stay in black screen. At first I thought Talking Tom is causing this, because it was happening whenever i run it. Only full reboot was fixing the problem.Yesterday I did full factory reset with SD erase and set up my phone again with all e-mail accounts and apps, but NO TALKING TOM!
Today the problem appeared again after I was playing with camera and "Connected Media". No sound, movies do not play. On top of this I got a sudden phone restart !
I called HTC support, and after an hour explaining what my problem is they advised me to do a full reset again and NOT to install any apps from the market. I will use the phone for a day or two and see if it's app related issue....
Anyone having similar issues?
My HTC serial starts with HT15EV....
same problem
I'm having the same problem with my friend. bottom of the screen gets very hot. After 3 minutes the phone turns off the sound while playing the Tom Cat. turns off the phone during a conversation.
exactly! It's maybe app related...I'll report in a few days of testing...
After I've installed talking tomcat ( free version ) my sounds where gone.
After doing a factory reset everything went back to normal.
This has happened three times to me ..
Lost sound .. had to do a reset to fix the first and second time.
the third time .. i was able to fix it opening and closing / playing
with the sound Stuff..
Also Noticed the phone became un-responsive was very laggy.
This is a real problem ..
If it happens and you have all your stuff installed..
I am having the same problem with audio, sometimes I get it after playing angry birds, other times watching a video online. It has also made me late for work one day because I didn't realize the sound went out and never heard the alarm. I wonder if its a LOT of phones that have this problem.
The audio problems started happening to me too! The soound would cut out in the middle of watching a movie. Quite annoying,
So far I've only had audio problems whenever I launched the Talking Tom Cat, other apps I'm using aren't problematic.
I had sound go off during just normal use and very slow gps locks (10 minutes)
lost connection as well.
I don't have Tom cat installed but i put 4 films on my sensation and the sound will be ok for 1 and a half minutes but then it goes off u can skip to further in the film and it will work again for another minute and a half then go off again My alam has let me down a few times aswell . Not very happy
i am using TOM CAT on my sensation, but never faced such probl.
Serial starts wid - HT15ZV
For all those having these issues could you please post up the build dates ?

well the problem pertains to app related issue but there is work around install app name volume ace.. when ur fone sound dips down.... fire volume ace and look for sound bar...usually u'll fine system volume gone below 3. increase it via this app jst by simple slider and u r bk..... had this prob with desire hd and this app still works n holds gud...
I have same problem, It happens when I use talking tom for the second time without restarting. Then I have to restart my phone. I am using stock ROM !!
I dont think it is related but all of a sudden my alarms on my phone (alarm clock) dont make any sound I just get the vibration..... yes the ring volume is all the way up, yes it is checked to make alarm sounds while in silent mode, yes I have tried diffrent ringers.... the only thing I didnt try was rebooting the phone.
no sound
i have no sound in any rom.. it's been this way for a while.. i can hear through the ear piece but thats it.. i can't hear with headphones either...
So I had a Note previously, WhatsApp worked perfectly fine.
I notice now that there are a lot of weird notification issues now. I ran some tests and this is what I've found.
Screen On - Clear all apps with Task Manager. Exit to home screen. Meaning, WhatsApp is not running in the background, not running at all. I use my girlfriends phone to send me 10 + messages. I get NO pushed messages, no notifications. Nothing happens. I then launch the app and see that I have 10+ unread messages under her name. I click to read the messages, and exit back to the home screen (either back arrow or home button). I send another message from her phone, and NOW I see the notifications.
Screen Off - (sleeping but app is still in the background) - I send a message from her phone, get NO push notification. But... as soon as I hit the power button to light up the screen (wake from sleep), I get the notification in the bar. I read the message, clear the notification bar.. then put the phone back to sleep. Same thing happens. While the screen is off, I get no push notifications until I turn on the screen.
Anyone having weird issues with WhatsApp? It can't be the app because it works perfectly normal on my Samsung Note. I'm thinking ICS broke it some how.
The notifications works fine for me with whatsapp. The only thing is that when I hit clear in the notification bar and haven't read the actual message, the notification will reappear again.

Same thing here just happened with me on my HTC ONE S , if screen if off and whatsapp is running i get no notification, however as soon as i press the power button immediately i get notified and the weird thing is the notification sound is the default ringtone while in whatsapp settings i have another tone set. Whatsapp was working fine. I tried reinstalling, force stopping, rebooting.
My phone is stock rom no root any help would be appreciated
EDIT (SOLVED): Disable Fast Boot under power options in settings, disabling it fixed my problem (Read it somewhere online)
I have problems with notifications when wifi is on. No problems w/out wifi
I have exact same issue on my Xperia Arc...with or without Wifi...I have ICS 4.0.3
I think it is phone independent issue...
i think you all should stop closing all apps from the task manager and everything would be fine.
you cant shut down all apps and then expect from them to work.
(at004 solution could help too)
Sorry to revive this thread, but I have a solution to the problem (I think) and I thought I might share it.
Some routers flag push messages as "Anonymous Internet Requests" which the NAT dismisses. This will effectively kill push and you'll only get your messages on the next sync.
To counter this problem you can forward the google push port to your phone.
You'll need a static IP for the phone. The port Google uses for push messages is 5228 on TCP.
Good luck with your problems!
ahh.. i got the notification problem.. there is no sound or vibrate for incoming whatsapp messages..
this happen affter i update the apps.. damn!

This happens on my brand new nexus 4
This used to happen way back when I first got my One X, but it is solved now. I thought it was because I had rooted and gone with a newer build, but I got a replacement One X stock with 2.20 and notifications work fine when screen is off.
Same issue in my nexus 4
I'm facing the same issue in my nexus 4.But this is applicable to the application which having the same properties of WhatsApp.For eg Viber.
When we are in the screen of Whats App and Viber i'm getting the notification otherwise not..
I also noticed one more thing unless we open the application the data notification in the signal bar is idle. I don't why its like that.Usually it should be always active.

Same here, with the same phone and running CyanogenMod 7.2.0.
Also seeking help on the same issue.
Seems there's no point to use this "instant" messager with this defect.
Go and complain with the makers of it as you have paid for it and using a custom ROM is 100% supported...
This is a users forum guys. If you install custom ROM some things may not work as on stock ROM.
We share experience and knowledge but not complaining about the product or demanding for a solution.
Go to WhatsApp website and tell them about the issue. I doubt they read this post.

I recently wiped and flashed both my and my fiance's phones. Both the exact same phone, and I used the exact same install method and rom. (CyanogenMod 9) They should both be the exact same... right?! Well having two issues which only work on my phone, not my fiance's.
ISSUE 1
So I am aware that the Samsung Galaxy S 4G has a known issue with sending long texts which popup with a triangle saying something like "cannot send message". In the past, we've split messages using Go SMS pro. I recently found an app called "BIG SMS" and it fixed my phone so now I can send loooong sms messages like normal and with any app! I installed it on my fiance's phone and her's shows the triangle, it goes away, then shows it was sent and received but nobody ever actually gets it?! What does that mean and why would it not work on her phone?
ISSUE 2
My fiance mentioned to me the other day when she turns down her audio using the phone's side rocker, it goes from low volume to mute and stops without going to vibrate. On my phone, I go from low volume, to vibrate, to mute... Where's that option on her phone?
For your first issue, you would have to install another modem. KG4 is the way to go for long messages. Here's a thread with modems that are compatible with the SGS4G. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192436
For issue two, does your fiancee have a different phone than you?
Thanks for the quick reply! No idea how installing a new modem works but I'll definitely look into it. We both have the Samsung Galaxy S 4G, and I flashed the exact same rom using the same methods, and installed the same apps. ONLY difference between our phones is that we just got hers and mine I bought when they first came out.
Installing a new modem is as simple as flashing it through a recovery mode. That's very odd how her phone goes to silent by the volume buttons. I have the same phone and cannot do that and neither can you.
Does she have vibrate off or intensity set all the way low? Maybe.

That is the mod I installed for both of us. I was used to the old android so now that we're on ICS, I'm not as familiar so I have yet to even find the intensity option. Under sound, we have the vibrate and ring turned on if that helps... That's about the only option I even see for vibrate without it being inside an app.
