TyTN: ht630f21xxxx
No problems yet accept SPB backup screws up the .NET CF so Tweaks2K2.NET no longer functions after a restore...
This ticks me off :evil:
One more lovely issue
If I soft-reset the device while it is being powered via USB (doesn't have to be sync'd, just being powered) the device locks up at the Windows Mobile Splash screen...
Fo Some reason SPB Backup screws the registry during a full backup (yes, it is installed to main memory) so I have to restore with no registry then restore a backup of the registry with Resco Registry...never had to do something so stupid with a new PDA
Someone seems have found the root cause (in japanese)

I found the issue to start after a week, starting on the right hand side, and then moving towards the centre of the screen. Happens all the time now.
Voda v1605 S/N - 626
Somebody with the problem needs to disassemble their TyTN and power it up with the front cover completely removed and the digitizer assy loose. If there's a mechanical issue based on the gaskets or some other case ideoysncracy, the alignment issues will immediately disappear. If my TyTN starts acting up I'll do this myself. We need to divide this problem to conquer it by answering this first all-important question:
Is it Hardware, Software or a combination of both?
HTC's own repair kit tends to indicate that its hardware and that the above test will resolve any issues. However, there have been reports that software changes solve it too and these are backed up by a compelling video that shows a person tapping on the same spot of the kbd SIP and sometimes it would register the correct key and sometimes it would register the key to the right of the one tapped. If the problem were hardware, this wouldn't happen; the offset tap registration would happen consistantly.
Sleuth255, unfortunately it is a hardware issue.
HTC is replacing faulty units and repairing (changing the LCD) if you don't have the original box.

I partially concur. Here is the video that I referred to earlier which, after closer examination, has made me change my opinion as to its root cause:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQIVv4b2jOI
(notice how his alternating finger pressure on the right side of the case is causing the alignment to shift right by one char).
Nevertheless, I still see posts such as this one which point to a software related cause as well:
mcalbala said:
I had the alignment issue, and the phone started to slow down, I bit the bullet and reimaged the phone (clear memory and reset to factory default), reinstalled software and resynced, and the problem went away totally - seems to be part of the software for the Tytn - Good that it doesnt seem to be hardware related

Maybe there's two completely different issues that are being tied together here.
save yourselves the headache and send it for replcement ...!!
:roll:
@sectorlord: I'd say hard reset first and run for a day w/o re-installing any software. If alignment problem re-surfaces, send it in because you've got the hardware problem that HTC has identified.
Why be without your TyTN if its not hardware? Remember: I'm not disagreeing with the hardware hypothesis here. It's obvious that one cause of screen alignment problems is digitizer/case related. What I'm saying here that there may be two seperate issues here, both of whose effect are screen alignment issues. If this is true, posters following the "just send it in" rationale who actually have the second software related issue, will be sorely disappointed when they get their TyTN back after an indeterminate wait based on regional service differences because the problem will crop right back up after they restore from backup.
I myself can't ignore data just because it doesn't fit the model. Calling this problem solely hardware ignores the data that I posted above from mcalbala as well as countless other posters who have reported similar success from hard resets.
I guess I'll just have to wait for that first post from someone who sent their TyTN in for the fix only to have the problem crop back up to see if my "two problem" hypothesis is correct.
I agree with you... I know some people have success getting rid of the issue by :
1) Hard reset
2) Upgarding ROMs
3) Loosening up the screws
4) Offsetting the calibrations
5) Unticking the USB-PC options
etc ..etc..
I tried all of these, and my unit improves but never totally fixed. I am trying to save you the headache I got.. if you can swap it..do it !
I returned my Trion, and bought a new Dopod838pro WWE HT636XXXX yesterday...
Knock on wood... It's a gamble on my part. I just trust Dopod HK, that they will release these units when this issue is resolved, and they release it last Thursday starting with HT636XXXX.
Is it fixed...I dont know... but surely I will be screaming on SIS if not..
:twisted:
Few days ago I received my repaired tytn back. SN HT627.
According to the serviceburo it should now be repaired according to the instruction of HTC.
parts used:
1x Gasket, Keypad.Apache For.
1x MYLAR,LCM CONN, BREEZE FOR
So, hopefully this really solved the problem.

Piet

Reopening the question: A week ago suddenly the notorious screen alignment problem appeared on my device. Never had it before, now every 2 hours, sometimes after 10 minutes already. In my case the SA-problem has several appearences: one time it misallignes a bit to the right, the other time a far end to the left. But always in horizontal line. B.t.w.: in landscape mode the alignment problem always was gone!
So finally after trying everything I knew (from XDA) I did a hardreset with the intention to send it back for repair. But now after the hardreset my SA-problem seems to be gone! I'm testing for hours now, do everything what might cause the problem but nothing (till so far). I only installed TomTom 6 after the hardreset...
Could this be software (programs or settings) cause after all?
I believe my camera is broken - black screen. I'm not sure but I think it's happened after I upgraded to wm6.
Does anyone had the same problem and was able to fix it or the hardware is ****ed up and there's nothing to do?
Thanks
no....
honestly I don't believe that an upgrade to wm6 can "break" your camera...
... and then there is a simple test that you can try: come back to the original shipped i-mate rom (ftp://ftp.clubimate.com) and you see what happens.
but.... why don't you give us some more infos?
like: is a G3/G4 locked or unloked, IPL/SPL version...
hi
tommy
well, I did that. I restore the original rom and the camera still didn't work.
My phone is G3 locked and I installed on top wm6 from faria (a nice one!).
Of course it could just be that my camera gave up. Since I was not using it regularly and at some point after the upgrade to wm6 I saw the problem it was one of the link.
Can the hardware of the camera be affected by the overclocking?
hey~
i think i may have a similar problem (but the explination doesn't go in to deep detail)
when i try to snap a picture, about half the time it will snap....half the time it just goes black (the screen) and no matter what....it WILL NOT SAVE the photo.
i've tried changing where it saves the photos (main memory or sd card) as well as changed all the settings one by one (megapixels, fine:super fine, snapping type [full press etc] etc. etc. etc. i also tried changing settings via the advance config tool often mention onthe forums)
i haven't updated the rom (stock at&t rom is installed....i'm savy but not savy enuf to change the rom lol) nor have i updated windows (it always gives me an error...says it cant connect to the server or something, oh well i don't much care for micro$ucks anyways lol)
it's running windows 6.1 professional...i have plenty of memory free and hadn't installed anything new or tweaked any settings the day it stoped working....
any ideas?
~j
ps.
oh yeah, oddly...the video record function still works....
Camera might be out of the connecting socket - open your device and make sure it's connected. Failing that - the replacement cameras can be purchased fairly cheaply.
thanks i'll give that a try and let ya know if it works!
i appreciate the very fast reply it's nice to know im not the only insomniac out there lol

Moved since problem is not ROM related.

jwzg....thanks again
all....as to the suggestion of opening the phone case....well with my nerve disease i'm going to have to have a friend do that since my hands are often no where near steady...ill let ya all know if that works.
mean time i may also look for maybe some other camera software....like i said, it will snap the photo but it refuses to SAVE the photo....so maybe the software is corrupt who knows....ill try it all
~j
hey all~
so i dove into my system registry tonite....i tweaked some things, changed the localtion of where stuff gets saved, changed some 1's to 0's an vice versa an it now seems to work....hope it remains working!
~j
Must have been a bad camera package.
jwzg~
yeah who knows, i'm just happy it's working again
~j
Yes, it's true. My Wizard revived, but with a small problem: the backlight doesn't turn on not even after some Hard Resets and even on bootloader mode, the screen is dim all the time.
I've also changed the settings on the slider with no success and searched the forum and found no answers.
What can cause this and what is the "cure"?
Thanks in advance.
probs it the LCD find out what type of screen it is my mate can get hold f one at a decent price if interested

Thanks for the tip. Is there any way we can fix the light?
The screen works, the touch works, but it's far too dim to use it.
Anyone else?
You say you have hard reset it, but have you tried flashing a different original rom to it to see if that fixes it? It might be a hardware problem with the lcd but i did have an issue once on my himalaya after flashing a new rom and i couldnt get the backlight to work, but after flashing an original rom it worked again and then i reflashed a cooked rom and it still worked

I've already flashed the original one...maybe flashing it with something else could fix it...
Thanks again
OK, just reflashed with a WM6 ROM (TNT.1933_Professional___HTC_Home_Wizard.rar) but it's the same. I can barely see what's on the screen. The screen works, the touch works, but it's too dim to use it.
So maybe it's not the backlight, I think it's the front light...
I also have dismantled it and cleaned out the contacts, re-assembled and flashed it again with no luck...
Help?

WM6 ROM (TNT.1933_Professional___HTC_Home_Wizard.rar) <---- that isnt an original rom, i am on about a operator rom that was officially released for your device, i.e. mine is an xda mini-s so my original provider would be o2, so i would use an o2 rom update that was released by them.
What you have basically done is install a cooked rom from itsright. Whoever the phone was released by try flashing their original wm5 rom to your device to see if it fixes it. THEN try flashing the tnt rom
Ok, some new developments. The LCD is fine and working and there's no problem with the backlight. I've manage to find that the issue was the mainboard all along.
I've used another LCD (a good one) and the backlight was still on, so the problem might be the mainboard is fried.
So, anyone can help me out? I just need a new mainboard (can be with the USB Connector in bad conditions, cause I have some solder skills).
Please help me out.
Edit: The Thing now doesn't charge properly. After some time, I get a flashing orange led and my Wizard heats up like it's going to blow...
@All,
As a celebration for my 1000th post, I decided to open a new thread based on Tweakman's idea, which seemed to work very well in the Development and Hacking Section. The idea is simple, a single thread for all Questions, Problems, and Concerns regarding Blue Angel. This includes, but it is not limited to:
[highlight]*Problems with Flashing.[/highlight]
Can't get your device in bootloader? Did it freeze during flashing and now it doesn't get past the 4 colored screen? Are you a complete noob and need some guidance as to how to flash? Etc.
[highlight]*Have questions about which Rom is best?[/highlight]
[highlight]*Want to install software but don't know if it is compatible with your BA[/highlight]
You get my point. All the questions that I have seen/answered over the past couple of months are just repetitions of posts, threads, and things that are readily available on the wiki or in other threads. However, people are either lazy, don't know what a Wiki is / where to find it, or just flat out don't know how to search (or read the forum rules for that matter). Having something general (in this case a sticky) that says "Hey, if you have a question, you can ask here" should draw enough attention and start minimizing the number of new threads and posts opened by users (both new and seasoned). This way, we will be able to keep the development threads a little cleaner and smaller... hence making the site's search function work a little better in the process.
@Seniors,
Kinda like the Q&A team, I will need your help in trying to keep the influx of questions to a certain level by answering them as we see them. None of us are logged in 24/7 (or at least some of us aren't ), but if you guys see a question, please try to answer it. I know that xplode, Chef_Tony, markanthonypr, red_hanks, sun_dream, imatrix, +Que_PPC, motisu, and others normally try to keep this under control, but if we centralize it and contain it, we will have a cleaner forum.
Reserved for future use.

my friend has Blue Angel,he has strange problems.
in (sounds & notification),it didnot saved after changing any parameter,we tried by reflash the rom again,but nothing changed,also we reinstalled radio 1.15 but no change,also the ring tone of the msg is discontinue or irregular when played,and some times didnot wake up (of the device) when recieve a msg.
this is strange issued problems but in mine (BA) every thing is ok,this problems only in my friend (BA),I mate PDA2K.
any ideas?any suggestions?
thnx
notice:when we down grade to wm 6.1 every thing is ok

Hey homam,
Thanks for kicking things off
First of all, which OS were you having problems with? This is important because it could have been a bug in a rom that could have been fixed in a later version.
@mark,
I know I can count on you, buddy I need help from the mods as well though. I cannot redirect posts to here and/or close threads
My BA, keeps turning on from standby, by a light shock! I maen, if you press the Power button, and then you knock gently on it's back, it turns back on!!
I've set to "Lock all buttons except the power button", However, I still have this issue.
Well, I must confess that once it dropped off of my hand, and it's the result of that...
Any ideas?
by "it turns back on" i assume you mean it wakes up from stand by, it doesn't really start like after a soft reset, right?
since the BA's only battery activated wake-up is in the cradle and we are not talking about soft reset, my first guess is, the battery is not to blame.
have you checked whether you can use your camera at all time? i mean, the camera_detect does not usually run at all times but if the camera connector is a little lose, from now and then it could "discover" the new camera hardware and wake up, that is unlikely for normal devices, but if yours had a crash before...
you could refer to this site for checking possible hardware reasons:
http://www.land-of-kain.de/ppc/mda3/disassembly/
the hardware things aside, there are also many possible software reasons for the device to wake up on:
- update of titanium weather
- automatic email checking
- cell broadcast
- if bluetooth is on
- if beam is on
- automatic update of any software...
plus of course the usual:
- incoming call
- incoming text message
- incoming mms
- upcoming calendar event...
so please check the possible software wake ups first to make sure this is really a hardware issue, because that would be a shame, that could be tricky to solve.
or let me put it this way, if it is really the moving that wakes it up, you have the first BA with accelerometer
EDIT: last but not least, it could only be a bug, maybe a hard reset or change of the rom could also be a way to go, since spontaneous waking up is a known bug for BAs
Chef_Tony
If there was only a way to hack the hardware and make this work at least on Edge. I can live with everything else, but its a shame paying for a full unlimited Internet service and only getting G connection Sighhhhhhh
Ok, I had to let that frustration out !!!!!!

Wow! Tony! I really appreciate your complete answer. I mean it.
Yes, as you correctly assumed, I meant wake-up. It just wakes up and continues the routine WinMo operation; no soft-reset occurs.
It's less than a year that I've replaced the battery with a new one. I remember all the funny things used to happen when the old battery was dying. But non of them were similar to this one.
It can't be the Camera. Well, I'm able to use it all the time, and the "camera_detect" has been always loaded in the processes whenever I've checked it. About the looseness thing, ummm, I'm not sure. I tried to knock on it to see if it's more sensitive than other parts. I think the upper part of the device is more likely to wake it up by an easy hit (like knocking). but it's the whole upper part, not only the camera section nor the camera button.
Unfortunately, the software possibility, is unlikely to be the problem:
I've used many ROMs on my lovely BA which 3-4 times of them taken place since the wake-up problem.
The software and the usual reasons you counted, do wake it up. but shakes, too.
Finally, to be honest, I'm agree with you! This is the first Blue Angel with accelerometer. yeaaah! I did it!
I bet my friends that I can wake my BA up, without touching any buttons or screen! It's fun this way, but I comes to be annoying when I put it in my pocket or just put it on a table! and it wakes up... consider the forced battery consumption, unwanted screen taps if I don't lock the screen. God bless A_C! and... .
I know it's a hardware issue (((((
@raizaM: My Thought.... Have you ever taken it apart? One of my BA's had 3 loose bolts inside. All 3 were from what I think is the Radio/Antenna part at top. However, in my case, I had a rattle going inside. Thats why I put it apart. You might have something loose inside, causing a connection to arc when you knock on your phone. If you do deside to open it, there is a tutorial on the wiki on how to.

Hey mark!
I had that same issue a while back, but with only one screw (also from the same area as yours).
@raizaM
Just to knock off Chef_Tony's theory out of the table completely, try to erase camera_detect.lnk from \Windows\startup and SR your device. If Chef was right, then your issue might be gone. However, I would follow markanthony's advice and take it apart in case Chef's idea doesn't work.
Oh man, your not my hero anymore LoL.. and here I thought I would be the only one with a mechanic inside my phone.

Actually, I tried to remove "camrea_detect" from the startup once, but any way, I gave it a shot again... no success...
Frankly, I'm a lil bit afraid to take my lovely BA apart... :-s... What if... :-(
But, I guess sooner or later I need to do so. so what the heck... lets do it.
Maybe I'll do it tonight. Guys please help me through it. I don't wanna loose my Angel!

raizaM: You're not going to go that far deep. Only remove the cover. If you look at picture #4 on that link, the top green area has about 6 bolts all around it. Those were the ones that were loose on mine. 2 of them were rattling inside the phone. I still can't believe they didn't cause a short circuit. You don't need to go down into the camshell area. Do you use the sliding keyboard? If so, you could have a bad flex cable. But, don't worry about tha for now. Just remove back cover and carefull inspect for loose bolts. Don't over tighten them.

It seems that you have the backlight settings set to dim/turn off too fast. Go to \Settings\System\Backlight and modify the settings in there (particularly the ones labeled "On Battery Power"). Then, soft reset the device (stylus on the bottom).
Hope this helps.

not the setting, it got black scren, its dead screen after running wifi or application, suddenly goes dead, black screen,.
Have you tried with another battery? It sounds to me like your battery is about to die. It won't hold the heavy battery consumption of Wi-Fi and heavy CPU usage while on Games. Try with another battery. Also make sure you followed Egzthunders suggestion to change your Power Settings. If you still need help, post back and include more info about your device, such as, what version of Windows are you running and how old/new is your battery.
i have a mda vario 2 ( hermes) i've been installed a rom called hermes_wwe_3.62 Malina2d now phone boots up fine but the touch screen dose not work at all ! can anyone help ? .
To get pass the alignment screen i had to create a file on storage card " welcome.not" and that got me pass alignment screen.
now i am a newbie so please all the help would be appreciated i did have a look for file called touch.dll to replace it but could find one. ( as i read somewhere that might be the problem.
my ipl -1.04 & spl-2.10.01ipro
i really don't know what to do i have tried to re flash the rom no luck there.
all the hardware buttons work fine.
Not sure about that one. Why not post the question in the thread from where you got the rom? That name doesn't ring a bell.
If not try flashing the stock shipped rom, or the at&t stripped to see if the issue goes away. If it does go away, then don't use that rom.
cant really remember where i got the rom from as i the phone is my little sisters. do you have a link for the rom you suggested
My sig has the stripped rom, and the shipped at&t roms. You can also find some programs and my roms there too.
And to be safe make sure that hardspl is installed.
If that doesn't fix it, there might be a hardware issue.
cheers for your help. i am going to download one of your roms and pray that might resolve the issue . what the latest hardspl ? i thought 2.10 was the latest ? how do i tell what is the on i have installed on the phone ? Hardspl and spl are they the same thing ?
If you flash one of mine, flash the at&t rom first, that will straighten out any issues with the memory.
if you have 2.10olipro, your all set! spl (or hardspl) is the bootloader.
no luck still having issue with the touch screen wont wont work.
the touch screen used to work fine before. all this it just became very laggy so i decided to upgrade the rom , i went to thru a few roms.
any other idea ?
i must say i do love your rom everything is set out all nice and neatly shame the touch isn't working.
Thanks for the compliment on the rom!
Sounds like it has some kind of hardware issue. If your inclined to take it apart carefully (I haven't taken mine apart yet), you might be able to check all of the connections, and for dirt or anything that might be the issue.
I believe there are disassemble instructions on the wiki.
Maybe someone with more experience in taking the phone apart can chime in.
touchscreen issue
i m having the stupid touchscreen issue i have tried everything ( including disassembly and removing gasket but it still does not calibrate
starting to hate that phone
Sounds like Digitizer could be dead.... Need to replace the LCD and Digitizer if thats the case.
The trouble with this is there are a few different things that could be causing this and just replacing the LCD might not fix it.
Sounds like it could be though. If you are having trouble, DON'T do a hard reset until you have installed an app called "remote screen alignment", freeware off the net. It copies the alignment info to the PC so you can do a quick alignment using the PC instead of the buggered screen. Otherwise you'll be going in circles for ever without being able to get into the today screen.
Cheers...
actually i have hard reset the device
the trick is to put a file called welcome.not on memory card to skip first time alignment
i'll change screen and see if it fixes itself later
i ll use the phone as it is till then
new lcd
i changed the lcd it worked flawlessly for 3 weeks then bang! the bottom half of the lcd stop to work
i think that the ribbon on the lcd got damaged when i installed it on the hermes the fact that it needs to be turned 360 degrees during assembly cause the problem any thoughts from you guys????
