Hi,
I have this strange problem on my device...here's the description of the bug -
- When i have a phone call active, the start button goes dead...I cant click on the start button Even if i press the Win key, the start menu doesnt roll out.
- however, the close button and the volume icons are active
- when i try to tap and hold on the clock (to change between analog and digital), i get the circle of dots, but at the end i dont get the menu options for switching between the two modes.
- when i end the call, the start button is still disabled. If i have to re-enable it, I need to press the POWER button to turn off my device and turn it back ON, then it gets active again. However, this works only after i end the active call.
This started to happen ever since i installed one of the roms/radio roms (which i dont remember) and now, it happens on any ROM that i flash it with
I have no clue as to whats broken and this seriously gets on my nerves
Any suggestions or ideas?
thanks!
San
Damn, i take it that noone has had this problem.....anyone any suggestions which may help fix it?!
Cheers,
San

Did you try a DOC format?
It may help...

Hey Ranju!!!
Thanks for your response! How do i do a DOC level format???
Thanks so much for responding!
San
On a side note, your v6 rom is just amazing! I love it for its great stability on my device, and not to mention the perfect balance in terms of applications it comes with etc.!

Hi Dreamtheater,
Enter BootLoader, connect to pc with USB, load, MTTY and type "Task 28 55aa" this will restore DOC to original state.
You will loose all info on your device so back-up first.

Before you try the DOC format, try re-flashing the radio only rom. If you are using v 1.18 or 1.17, try 1.15 which is more stable.

I was running on R1.15...now i'm trying 1.17!
You suspect the problem to be with the radio? I guessed as much too...but it seemed like it happened two different radios and all the OS roms. Maybe something was screwed at DOC level, hopefully the doc format should work....
thanks!
San
Still no luck
I formatted the DOC and reinstalled everything, and it still fails...
All i need to do is, dial a number, shut the lid, re-open it and then try to click on the start button, doesnt respond
Everything below is functional.....
Sad :-(((
Why me??!
still no luck
@beasty, ranju
Any other suggestions? This is such a wierd problem. Is there something like a format of radio section on the device?
Thanks,
San

This is a very typical problem, I've no solid answer.
But lets try...
1. Run the CID unlock tool
2. Unplug the battery and plugin back after a few minutes
3. Start the device in BL
4. Flash the Radio 1.09, an original OS rom (i.e. from O2) and an empty extrom
5. Hard reset, screen align etc. (do not install anything)
6. Check the device status ....
Are you having the same problem?

thanks ranju,
let me give this a spin now....i'll post back after i try it. one thing though, when i tried a wm5 based rom, this issue didnt turn up.
one thing though....i actually cooked my own rom using a wm5 rom base and replaced the phone and outlook apps from wm6 and tried to run it. the phone module never powered on, and nothing worked....and went back to a wm6 rom after which. i'm not too sure if this has triggered these problems or a bad wm6 rom which i've flashed (i remember mo3ulla's rom which never worked for me and fubared my device completely....this could also be the cause....)
either ways, still hunting for a possible fix, and thanks so much for helping out! will post back bro....

Hi San,
If you have a history file in the root of your device can you post it for us please?
If not do you have access to Visual Studio and Platform Builder so that you can get a KITL output of this in action, then post the KITL for us?
Also, are you running any taskamanagers or additional apps?
Does the issue occur straight after a clean flash of a Vanilla Rom?
Cheers,
Beasty
@beasty
Here's history.txt attached....
I have visual studio, but i dont have platform builder....so i'm afraid thats not possible. If you could point me as to where i can get it, I could give it a shot.
Right now i'm going to radio 1.09, and checking if its a radio incompatibility issue...doubt it though.....
San
Oh dudes! I guess i figured out what's causing the problem, though i have no idea how to fix this!!!!!!
All this has started when my exchange service provider has migrated to exchange 2007 which makes it mandatory for me to have a password for my device. I have a 24 hr time out for the password, pretty much making the need for a password useless....
When i make a call and leave the lid open and continue to talk - no problems! the start button works as it should....
but the moment i close the lid and pull it open again, it seems like the display blanks and redraws (only happens if you have a password for your device), and thats when the start button gets disabled! Now, the only way out is to end the call, power off and then power on again......
This is confirmed, but how do i fix the problem? I should have a password, cant disable it.....and i always close the lid when i make a call! MS bug????
Thanks again ranju, beasty.....really appreciate it!
San

Who's there?
There are some known issues with password screen causing issues on some roms mate.
All I can suggest is dig through the forums to see if you can find a fix posted............I think J had a similar issue with one of his Roms and it was discussed in detail............
or flash to a different Rom and see if it is reproduceable.
later San

Search for 'business card battery'. Follow the instructions.
If that doesn't work, buy a new battery.
If that doesn't work, send the phone to HTC for warrenty service because hardware is broken. (If it was software you wouldn't see that behavior across multiple roms)

Acutally tried some things right now, but it seems the issue still stays.

sry but it isn´t.
i try it but i think it´s only to fix the problem with the night mode. my wifi sleeps just after a few seconds when display is locked. some apps like "advanced wifi lock" fix the problem.but my battery... that´s why i ask for another method to solve my issue

this is my problem for 2month TOO
i cant find answer and everyone in around say your phone and htc is a bad brand and ...
so i can't answer for which reason this happend
realy big problem for appZ like What's App
I'm just going to try out lowest screen brightness & never turn off screen and after that the advanced wifi lock & etting you know which works better on battery life. Tho im sure advanced wifi lock tops the other method.
I also I have the same problem, I put a link here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34967017 # post34967017 to try to find help, but from what I see, is difficult to solve.
Still seems that advanced wifi lock is best solution right now. When i get 100% charge level i shall try how fast it drains the battery
But the question is why only a few phones have this problem and why a app like advanced wifi lock can fix the problem???????
Mysterious! I tried out different custom roms and radios and the problem was always the same.
Maybe one of the developers of a custom rom can help?
I have a similar issue but its my WiFi hotspot that stops broadcasting signal when screen is off
Only on non sense ROMs

I'm on stock ICS, not rooted.
After using phone for a short time, and put it on charger my battery indicator get to 100% immediatly (when i plug it of after few seconds battery drop to percent before that). I noticed that when phone is little hot this will going to happen for sure. Then i need a time to cool it off and after that phone is showing normal charging. But sometimes it needs more time.
When that stuff happen my computer also don't recognize phone, just get 100% charge.
Just to add that phone is actualy charging when jump to 100%....
Also i had a similair problem on rrooted GB - Thiaz ROM
Try battery calibration app from Google Play, if it doesnt work then its hardware sensors or whatnot that doesnt work right probably.

Hi all, from some days I have a strange issue. Back button doesn't work if I set back gesture, but if I choose multitasking it works fine.
Already rebooted but nothing. On a Facebook group, another person tell me that has same problem, but whit a reboot it works for some time.
Someone other with this issue?
Same issue here from time to time, reboot normally makes back button work again.
