I have cooked T-Mobile ROM 4.01.00 and 4.01.16 both of these make pocket pc turn on everytime.Also SMS when sent goes to Outbox or in drafts.
Can anyone help me to slove this problems or better ROM
Use the AT&T 30.09 ROM.
Although there is an issue with volume (search for attenuation on this site) I definitely prefer it to the T-Mobile ROM which made my device turn on at random times as well.
nothing wrong with 4.01.00 .. most of these 'turn on' issues are related to either scheduled Outlook refreshing ... or weak phone signal which will turn on the device to gain it back
It's definitely not acceptable with a device that turns itself on in the pocket and starts draining battery and accepting input on the screen.

I use it instead of a phone, and as I would normally keep my phone in my pocket that's also where I keep my Qtek. It has been there for the last 18 months or so without taking any major damage. I have a screen protector, but that's about it.
I think you have a bigger problem than damaging your phone.
After 18 months, isn't it time you changed your pants!?
Ok, it hasn't been in the same pocket continously for 18 months. And I usually put it in my jacket rather than in my trousers.
What I wanted to say was that I treat it more or less the same way as I would treat a normal mobile phone.

but you see, I believe normal phones are better built than this fragile device ... just look to the the propability of having a broken screen out of the simplest bending force ... or, how many times did you drop your Nokia to find it's still working ????
Just be careful
Well, I've dropped my Qtek a few times as well. I'll admit it has not been as frequent as with the old Nokia 8210. But I haven't had to get a new display unit for the Qtek which I had to do for the Nokia.
I try to go easy on the connectors and not to sit on it with all my weight. That seems to be enough carefulness for it to last for at least a couple of years. The only visible damage is a few dents and that the paint has started to wear off at certain spots.
T-Mobile ROM 4.01.00 and 16 are working well except AT&T ROM A30.09 having sound problem.I-Mate ROM 1.66 or other ROMs can be installed in XDA 1.
Wirless modem is not available,where can i find?

That's my first time to know that!! ... is it the same ROM image specs ?? ... Have you tried it yourself ? ... normal .nbf file ?
Biso, you said it works well for you. What about the SMS problem? I just got 16 and when I try to send SMS they go to outbox or drafts, only to tell me later that the message could not be sent. Any help would be appreciated.
I'm sorry not to be aware of such problem on 4.01.xx ROMs.
Have you checked the SMS center number ?
start, settings, phone, services, Voice mail and SMS, service center
Thanks,
For some reason, when I installed the TMO ROM, the SMS Service Center was wrong, and I had to add a + to it. Now the ROM works great. I really like the dual volume controls. Thanks!!!!

I've had my T-Mobile MDA Vario for around 5 months now, and its OK, but it does crash about once or twice a week (needing a soft reset), which makes it unreliable (I can't receive calls until I reset, and I don't know its crashed till I try to use it).
I also have a problem after soft resets with the alarm.
It is also a bit slow when I have a few apps running, such as Pocket Streets and Word Mobile.
Due to the crashing, it's time for a Rom update, but I'd like to stick with T Mobile for warranty reasons if I can.
Des anyone know if T-Mobile are planning on releasing an updated improved Rom for download ?
If not, what is the best Rom download recommended ?
Best Regards,
Andrew
When you say it crashes, what exactly does it do? I've had mine from T-Mobile for about the same time, a little longer maybe, and the only trouble I have is sometimes after the sync it becomes very slow, I soft reset, then it's fine, but that's it. If you're experiencing something more serious and regulalry, I'd say try to get it replaced on warranty. Maybe you're running low on memory? (if that's th case you can move a lot of stuff onto a memory card rather than keeping it on the main ram).
Regarding a ROM update, contacted them a couple of months ago and I was told that this would be announced if and when... so no set date yet it seems

It just freezes (normally it is off in standby at the time, and refuses to restart or do anything - occasionally the screen is on and freezes).
When I try and use it, nothing happens (the green phone light continues to flash, but no calls are actually received).
I got the phone unlocked through T Mobile, so I don't want a replacement (from the Carphone Warehouse), as this won't be unlocked, and I'll have all sorts of problems trying to convince T mobile to unlock it.

Vario ROM Upgrade
This will make some laugh...
I receently emailed T-Mobile customer support asking where their latest ROM upgrade for the Vairo was located..
The answer I got was "I have read your manual ... and ROM upgrades are not possible".... what a lot of use they are !
Just have to keep my eyes peeled in here...

Since yesterday my ok, windows, on and off hook and -- buttons aren't working anymore. The button in the middle and the cursor are still ok. Any ideas?
Due to the fact that the "--" (left and right) are not working I can't even do a hard reset.

Hi all,
OK I did a hard reset but it didn't work. Still no go :-(
The black coating is also peeling off. What a nice device.
mine just packed up too
more and more bugs are showing up every day passes... I somehow knew It would happen.. I don't think I'll take the risk of buying a p3600 through import without warranty after reading all these problems..
Good luck man
Trinity working well ..

While I dare not say my Trinity will be problem free, so far it has served me well. Everything is working as it should and the internal GPS has been enabled without a single problem. I'm on the test ROM (AKU3.3) and so far the performance is much better than my old Dopod 838 Pro (Hermes).
So far I have been very impressed with HTC built devices. A friend of mine's Dopod 838pro (Hermes) went into the pool accidentally, and it refuse to boot. After 3 days of intensive 'drying' it finally came back to life and it is working problem free until now.

My personal advise to you would be to test the 3G call on that device before you buy it. The only advantage the Tytn has over Trinity is:
1) Flash light & Macro Picture
2) Keyboard
3) Additional hard button (Messaging, IE, 3G call)

The main reason I'm considering it is that i can buy it from here in israel with warranty, I don't wanna risk buying the trinity abroad.
I don't really care about 3G calls, I never use it, but 3G internet speeds aren't bad
the keyboard seems a big advantage over the trinity. The main advantage of the trinity is the small and pocket form factor, but unfortunately I can have it only by importing it

ok cheers, if it's any help they have repaired mine twice for this issue. Originally it went in for the peeling paint, but while they had it the buttons failed the test so were replaced. Then when they bodged the repair and it went back again, again the buttons failed the test and they replaced again.
Then when I get the phone back...the buttons don't work! Incidently before they started repairing the phone I never had a problem with the buttons
Hi!
I know that this thread is quite old but I prefer to post in this thread rather than opening a new one (sorry if I am not doing well but I am new at the community )
Yesterday I was working on a P3600 and suddenly all buttons stop working. The irDA also did not work. I have left the phone all the night without the battery (I really don't know what I was trying to achieve ), and this morning the buttons (and the irDa) did not work yet. Now, after a hard reset, it seems that all is working as it should.
My questions are, why after a hard reset? (it seems to point out a software issue); is this problem related to the touch screen problem I've been reading about in the forum? (perhaps the cause is the same); and finally, is it likely to appear again?
Thanks in advance
ROM version: 1.15.412.2 10/23/06 (original one)
Radio version: 1.20.00.11
ExtROM version: 1.15.412.101
My D-pad select, down, right and OK have been getting steadily worse requiring more pressure to use. Mine isn't software related. Just sent it back today asking for the black peeling issue to be repaired as well.
I held out as long as I could hoping that any issues had been resolved by HTC. I'll post when I get it back.

You will probably have to get return authorization through your retailer.
It's been about 2-1/2 weeks and no word from HTC. I emailed them today. I will be sure to post when I get it back regarding GPS Rom and peeling.
Just got it back - all pretty again. They replaced the bezel and switch board. Still has old rom but I am happy.

I've had the exact same thing happen twice now. Everything is going along fine and then suddenly all the keys stop working until I do a hard reset. The touch screen keeps going as normal. I haven't tested the IRDA but it appears that USB and active sync don't want to go either. A hard reset solves the problem but then I have to reinstall things which is annoying.
There must be other people out there with this problem. Has anyone come up with a solution?
I don't think, that there will be a fix...seems like a hardware problem to me.
I have nearly the same....the red and the green call buttons don't work properly!
For me they work immediately after a soft reset and then stop again within about 30 seconds. Hardware or software? it would appear to be software but I had the same issue using the official T-Mobile WM5 and still umder Black Satin WM6.....
think I'll flash back to official ROM and take it into the shop tomorrow!
Hi friends,
Please give me advices on this situation.
I bought a HD since 05/2009. I installed many cooked ROMs and it still fine until now.
When i've turned off the screen with power button and then turned it on, the screen still black, but i still can touch on it and it vibrate each time i touch. I tried to soft reset by push reset button at the back, pull out the battery .... The screen is always black, but the phone can start up and vibrates when i touch on the screen.
I thought the screen consist of 2 parts, one for displaying and one for touching. And the displaying part is died.
Then i connected it to PC in order to re-install with the ship ROM, and so strange, the screen work again right after i plugged the cable. But i still re-installed it with the ship ROM. But the error came back many times in few days later. And sometimes the method "connect to PC with cable" didn't work.
When feeling hopeless, i left the phone alone in some days and the screen suddenly works.
And now it has just turned back again and i dont know if it will be back or i must have it repair. (There is no warranty service for HTC in my country.)
Thanks for reading, i know that my English is terrible.
Check the backlight adjustment. As ridiculous as it may sound, with a rom I had it sometimes went to zero light on its own. Plug it and make sure that all settings are to maximum light, with the automatic function disabled, and see if it happens again.

This happened to me once and I removed battery and left phone overnight. In the morning I insertedbattery again and problem hasn't materialised since.
However, if your issue keeps returning it looks like you would need to get phone fixed under warranty as it sounds like a loose connection between motherboard & LCD screen

So sad, the issue occurs again when i need to make an important call. It drives me crazy because i were on the street and i must went to a post office. Then i realized that i do not remember the phone number.
I must get it fixed at weekend then i may sell it away. I'm dreaming of HTC Leo but maybe i will come back to my old iPhone 2G until Leo's price drops.
Thanks all for your help and listening.
Sorry to hear of your problems
If it was me, I would send the phone away on warranty and just use your iphone in the mean time.

Hi,
I have recently purchased my HD2 and its been a couple of months now since I'm utilizing it. Barely exploring my phone features, it hangs 20 times in view of the following encountered predicaments :-
1) Receiving 2 simultaneous SMS
2) Receiving an MMS
3) Pressing on any of the keys on the phone whenever receiving an SMS
Well, the list goes on and on. So, in resolving this issue, SIS (Malaysia) had agreed to change a new phone for me. And so they did. Tested it on the spot and everything was working fine, but just after a few days later, the problem reoccur itself again. This time, the entire phone hangs up. No keys can be activated, neither the phone can be turned on.
Firstly, its a brand new phone, so this kinda problem should not arise. Secondly, its no doubt troublesome to flip the back cover and press the tiny red button to perform a soft reset. Why in the darn first place the soft reset button isn't placed outside ? (just liky my old TYTN II)
So I have read a couple of forums with regards to this matter and came upon two conclusions in the end. One, the Manila.exe is the main culprit towards the hanging of the device and two, the HTC Sense application program has a flaw in between. Well, there's a temporary workaround though (that is if you do not want to flip the back cover over and over again), which is to leave the phone idle for 48 hours, let the battery drain itself off and then recharge back the phone again.
48 hours is a long time to wait though, and as a professional worker in my line of work, I really do not have that much of an ample time to linger around waiting for it to run out of juice. I'm totally very much dissapointed with the purchasement of the HTC HD2 as not only the technicians at the SIS (Malaysia) could not get to reproduce my predicaments, they cant even get to solve the hanging issue which I'd reckon, that's what I've been spending most of my time on my new phone (rather than to explore what is has to offer)
Is there a work around to the HTC Sense / Manila.exe problem ? Other suggestions would be to turn off the HTC Sense, but you know what ? Turning off the HTC Sense will be something like buying an Aston and driving it at 40kpmh all the way till the south of France !!! The phone's interface will be dull, and not to mentioned, it will be more a less pictured like my old TYTN II
I do not really have such problems for the HTC TYTN II though, not even one hang moment. Please XDA developers / experts, I'm indeed begging for a solution in resolving this reoccuring problem that somehow not only it will tarnish the brand HTC, it will also loose faith of the end consumers in the market.
why don't you ask SIS to change the phone again?
Just want to say one thing ... "Stock ROM's Suck" , hate to be that blunt but the stock ROMs they put on this beautiful hardware just seem to be time bombs, waiting to explode when you get them home ...
Should flash that sucker!!
To dan138zig
Well, that was my last resort to them, in order to solve it once and for all. I've been travelling to SIS to and fro for 4 times and yet the problem is still left unresolved. They've even tested it in their environment and it works fine (for the 1st two visits). But somehow, they manage to simulate the issue and they replaced the chipboard.
Now, replacing the chipboard was to the previous original phone, though even after the replacement, it still didnt solve the problem. So ding dong here and there, and after several "consultations" with their higher level managment, they agreed to change a new phone for me, off the hook (not undergoing formal procedures, whereby I'll have to wait for another two weeks)
So, getting a brand new phone I'd reckon my miseries will be resolved, but then the hanging problem reoccur itself today again. It seems that the HTC Sense is the main culprit though, after reading a few forums off the Net. And for a "premanent" solution (that is if HTC does not come out with any ROM / fixes / enchancements), I've gotta turn off the HTC Sense feature.
Well, buying a phone that cost 2K plus had already put a large damage in my wallet, now having to face this consequences after the purchasement is a real icing on the cake. What do you think ? If you're in my shoes, what would you do ?

Have you tried getting a new SIM? Sounds like the problem only happens when its talking to the network, and as you've had 2 handsets, i'd give a SIM change a go.
On the plus side........... at least you get 48hrs battery life.......
Not much use though if your phone doesnt work I suppose.....

Well, my SIM's working perfectly fine though, it does not give me any form of problem with my old TYTN II neither with other HTC devices I've checked with a few friends of mine. I do really suspect its the Sense that's the real culprit in the hanging of the device. Just really hope that they clear up this predicament with a new release of the ROM

haha, forty eight hours of baterry life ? well, I wouldn't bet on it. Have tried using it extensively and even before it reaches sunset, the battery is out. And guess what ? It's a brand new battery.
The phone's terrific, but sadly, the battery isnt. Its just like you are viewing a beautiful girl from bottom up till the next and the next thing you know it, viewing her face just makes you wanna vomit over and over again
So that's how I could sum up the HD2 as a whole. Most comparison commentators out there did place the HD2 side by side with the IPhone 3Gs. Both eventually also will end up running out of juice in 48 hours when you're performing your day to day call basis

The HTC Support and Releases still does not solve the problem, mate. Its something that HTC R&D as well as the QA team needs to sit down and extensively test the entire device from bottoms up till all forms of problem is resolved thereafter.

hmm, well you did not get what I meant, but that is ok .. I meant the version of the roms suck .. I like WinMo, personally I think Android with is BigBrother Back door is just as bad as the Iphone ...
I just got my HD2 back from repairs after 1 month now, I had the problem where the phone freezes up when I recieve calls. This got fixed, and I have not noticed any of the symtoms I had earlier. But now...
1. The FM-Radio does not work.
2. When I connect my phone to my computer, my computer sais: "One of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it. for assistance in solving this problem, click this message." And just connect - disconnect - connect - disconnect.
3. When I turn on my cellphone, I get a warning: BTTrayCE er ikke et gyldig Pocket Pc-program. (BTTrayCE is not a valid Pocket PC-program in English)
It just kills me that the phone that actually won the "Mobile of the year '09" by Amobil.no, sucks more than the Iphone.
Should I just send my phone back to repairs again, or do you guys have any idea how to fix this without using another month in repairs?

First off, I'm sorry to see that your phone is having these issues. Mine has worked like a charm ever since I installed the first custom ROM.
Now my question; have you HSPL'ed your phone yet?
You could try installing another (custom) ROM and a newer radio version to see if it helps.. It might aswell fix your problems.

I did use HSPL before I sent my phone to repairs, but it did not fix any problems, therefore I do not believe in HSPL'ing anymore.. I did not notice any difference at all, after installing a custom rom, or radio..
I see.. Have you tried Task29 yet? (Formatting it completely)
And then installing the latest Radio + a custom rom? (Before trying this, be SURE you have HSPL'ed it!)
If you've already tried that, I think the only thing you'd be able to do is to get a huge stone (or your HD2 itself), put a note on it saying 'It still does not work properly', and throwing it through the window of any HTC office in your country .
Or just open a ticket/calling them saying it still doesn't work and that you demand a replacement/new phone, as how it is now it's kinda an expensive brick.

I just don't dare to do this, I have hacked TomTom, but this seems too dangerous, I'm still a noob in cellphone programming and stuff...

Or just open a ticket/calling them saying it still doesn't work and that you demand a replacement/new phone, as how it is now it's kinda an expensive brick.

Do HTC even bother about their customers? Doesn't seem so, seeing that if the cellphone should have any problems of this sort, they say you will get a new phone. But rather getting a new phone, I got the old one back, in worse condition than before.
Also, I wonder if they can check my problems? Because we have a law in Norway, if the same problem occours after 3 times repaired, you can either get a new phone or money back (same with all other electronics). So could I just lie and say I have the same problem + the new problems? **** the ethics ..

Task29 isn't that risky.. Just run HSPL again and get that done, then run the packed exe as found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=644781. As long as you press the VolDown button when it restarts, you will be totally fine. However in your case, I'd indeed not expect much improvement, as it really seems to be a hardware problem.

I think it is all the same with those big corporations. One customer, who cares? As long as their phones sell, why would they bother? Same story all over again.
I'd go for the three strikes = new phone way. However, it does suck to have your phone taken away from you for another month or so..
sorry mate..mine works like a charm since day one must be just u it still is the best phone
lmao it has some disadvantages (like tft screen,no tv out/hdmi out/crap loudspeaker) but lmao its still better than most phones out there
Load the latest HTC stock ROM from their website, looks like yours is quite old.

Guess what, it is the lastest stock, I just checked it.. Norwegian atleast, and I don't bother using other languages (even English). Just posted a ticket on HTC.com/no, and then I will send it to repairs again, and again, and then I'm changing to a Samsung Galaxy S..
I've heard Samsung support is even worse than HTC..
But indeed, the Galaxy S does have features that our phone lacks.. Still, I think the HD2 looks more sexy.

The HD2 looks way better, I do agree. But my brother bought himself a samsung galaxy s, and he's going to start making games and apps, so he could teach me a little bit, and if I have problems, I could go to him rather than sending it to repairs, (not all problems are easily solved on the intarwebz) and then I'd get rid of Windows Mobile..
Sorry to hear that you have such hard issues with your HD2.
3. When I turn on my cellphone, I get a warning: BTTrayCE er ikke et gyldig Pocket Pc-program. (BTTrayCE is not a valid Pocket PC-program in English)

I had the same issue too. TomTom replaces two BT files (Your bluetooth should not work by now) so the BT application can not start up properly. THIS fixes at least this problem (Use Resco Explorer or TotalCommander and unhide system files).
I hope you'll find help for your other issues, too.

I see, tho, will this problem only appear if you have hacked TomTom? Or with the real TomTom aswell? Just want to make sure before I send it back to HTC

How did you hack TomTom? Is that so you get free turn-by-turn navigation?

Well, instead of buying a licence, you hack it, using a keygen of some sort :S Didn't quite get what I did, but I used CMD to open a keygen and create a file :S Was weird, but hey, I did it... After 2 hours of trying
Easy when you know how, but im sure its not something that should be discussed on the forums. (WTB TomTom for sale from the australian site, as i feel its worth the cash)
anyway, darkkoushirou is correct regarding TomTom + Bluetooth.
I found it easier to install it to the SD card then factory reset. Once thats done i used total commander to simply copy a link back into your start menu.
Now that my custom ROM has XDA_UC i have set it to auto-copy the link back to my start menu after each rom upgrade
I know that when i got the handset i was trying many different apps, some of which caused issues. Once you get an idea of the ones you need, doing a factory reset is recommended. Then only install the 'good' ones.
