Slow answering incomming calls

hello! i've searched but didnt find any help with my problem. When my jasjar rings (incomming call) and after i press the answer button (the green one) i need to wait about 1 to 2 seconds before i can hear the person that is calling me...strange...did this ever happen to you? how can i solve this problem? Thanks in Advance

Yes, i have the same problem on my MDA Pro
After pressing the green button, i have to wait 3 secounds with speaking.

I had the same problem and now is solved.
In phone/options/band select WCDMA (not automatic)

i think that didnt solve the problem...sorry...thanks

I have the same probelm on the incoming call. However, i finally realized that it's the problem on the Pocket Plus V3.0.4 installed on the system.
It appear to be normal once i removed the program.
It's the case for me, and i hope it would help you as well

I too have this problem with my I-Mate Jasjar. I need to wait for a few seconds after hitting the answer button before I can hear the calling party. I did a hard reset and installed the latest wwe ROM available on clubimate site. The problem still persists even without any third party software installed. So I do not blame pocketplus for this problem. I think this is a software/hardware issue which should be addressed in a ROM upgrade.

I have the same problem with my JasJar. I have also updated to the lates ROM from clubImate by advice from clubImate support.
Sometimes the phone does not even answer the call at all when pressing the green button. This is becoming an even more expensive phone since I have to call back so many people on account of missed calls
Seriously, It cannot be right that a problem like this exists on a phone in this price range. ClubImate support even said they had never heard of this problem before.

i did a few hard resets and the problem persists without any extra software installed. "Very bad bug". i've already test a K-jam and it works beautifull...i'm sad

Got my XDA Exec today. It's pretty good but is not the same as my XDA2. Even less phone. More PDA...
If I turn my machine off in landscape mode and then close the lid with the screen out (like the XDA2) then when a call arrives it takes ages to answer because the screen has to rotate first to portrait mode.
If I turn off and close in laptop mode (landscape) then it rings immediately and I can answer it immediately using the hinge buttons.
Maybe it is the same for you?

i have noticed it seems to be quicker to goto portrait than to landscape in all respects of use

ok, lets try it...thanks

how i test it: jasjar "on" charging, open in portait mode. same delay.

L to P is roughly twice as long for me.
going to L i get twist and flip and the display is done ready and waiting
going to P i get twist and flip then get a 2s ish of L before it flips to P
this was battery power
*** its the same on mains and battery !

When my Exec is on, the rotation is pretty much instant. I have no apps running. It's only when a phone call wakes it up that the rotation is slooooow.

My Qtek 9100 also take app. 5 sec before it rings, and the S100 I had before was the same. My dad has an XDA mini, same problem. It seems like pocket plus will increase the problem, but even without any extra software its not working perfect. Its strange after such long time, they havent been able to solve simple problems like theese.

I also get this, Its very annying. Maybe they incorperated it so you can answer the call asap and the before it acually picks up, you have a few seconds to turn the screen round and see whos calling ect?

I have an Exec and there is certainly a knack to answering a call on it, but i'm getting better!!!
Firstly the voicemail seems to kick in way too early, i only get 4 rings of the 'ring' ringtone max before the VM kicks in, sometimes i think it is less, but i may just be going deaf! does anyone else find this a problem?(not deafness)
As i usually have the exec closed in my pocket, this is how i answer a call.
1, Hear the first ring, if i don't it's too late already!
2, Drop everything, and remove phone(ha!) from case and open into laptop mode only. If i rotate all the way into PDA mode the screen takes too long to change and the call goes to VM before i can see who it is.
3, Answer call after seeing who it is
4, Rotate or close screen and put to my ear and wait 2 seconds to speak.
It's a real pain in the arse and very annoying.
Great forum btw, it's been very helpful, i knew bugger all about PDAs three weeks ago.

Which button(s) do you have success with?
The small green on the side,
the green above the other keys on the keyboard,
the soft key button,
or touching the screen?

If you're using the Exec on o2, you can adjust the cut-in delay at the o2 end. You do so by keying in/sending the following to o2:
**61*901*11*xx# [send]
(where xx is number of seconds, e.g. 30.)
Note: I think the maximum delay allowed is about 30-secs - at least I've never got it to extend longer than that!
I have found that o2 occasionally reset mine back to about 10-secs, so have it programmed into a contact number.

I've found something interesting.
I tried to swap two sim cards.
<boring>
The one originally in my phone was a sim card from Orange Denmark (where I live). Orange has since been bought by Telia, and this same sim card is now using Telias network. This is by design. It gives my the roaming symbol all the time since the buy-over.
To say the least, some things have been very ****ty in this process, so I thougt that I might try another sim card.
</boring>
I had another one from TDC (another danish operator), and bang! My Universal (Jasjar) answers instantly - every time - on all the buttons!
Could some of you who have this problem as well, please confirm this? Please tell what kind of sim card (and country) you are networking through, and try another one.

Button/screen lock coming off when I receive a message/call

I'm using an XDA2i with WM2003SE, though I thought that this would also be a poignant issue for those with XDA2's etc.
I have my device set so that when I press the power button it is effectively a keylock. The screen goes blank and doesn't respond to any input, neither do the buttons. This is a normal setting, not an external program or whatever.
However, when I receive a message or a call, the screen/buttonlock comes off allowing all manner of things to happen whilst the device is in my pocket. I must say this is particularly annoying when I have it on silent mode...
What I was wondering is if there's a way I can stop it doing this? I have found myself connected to MSN, launching applications, and various other things that have cost me time and money just because the screen/buttonlock won't stay on when I have someone contact me in any way.
So, can I prevent this happening at all?
Thanks.

earlier such was?

What?

EXACTLY the same problem
yeah i have a similar problem im looking for some software that means it wont unlock unless i press power
because im pulling my hair out over this one
does any one know of some work around?

flightmode is the only thing i can think
off
doubt there would be a big demand for that feature
anyway
as a rule people want to be notifided that their device is ringing
and want to be able to answer the call
by pressing the pickup button
one can put a password on the device if one dont wish it to
go to today screen when it wakes up ringing

oh yes i want to know its happening its just i don't want it to answer and dial 3 other people before it reaches the top of my pocket
other phones dont unlock them selves when they recieve texts
its just if i don't feel it vibrate it doesn't stay locked or lock after the ringer gives up it then remains unlocked and free to do what the pockets desire

as i said having a password on the device
is a workaround
it's also a way to keep private data safe if it's stolen

yeah fair enough i just tried that and it doesn't ask for the password once it wakes up, Oh and i certainly appreciate the help rudegar
i have been eyeing up devicelock thats on some threads but that wont install on my blueangel
what we need is, the device not to unlock because of a txt or message, and to relock after a call disconnect
that seams to be the only annoying thing about this phone other wise its great and i love the still active communities

alright i may have found soemthing
http://www.modaco.com/Key-screen-lock-PPC-t204979.html&st=60
they were developing this program due to them being equally frustrated
the guy pocketmax came up with a program called screenguard i will be testing it over the next few days
and tonight ill let you know how it goes

odd i have my password timeout at 0
and sure i can asnwer a call without putting in the password
but it never leave the password screen
and i can see the clock and sms noti icon and such
but i can never get passed the password screen
of cause the password would be useless for data proction if that was not the case

argh, i think i've had it with this phone (wifi)

in a neverending battle with a phone that is underpowered and clumsy, i now have had enough. I figure i will give this one shot here before i buy a pearl or dash on monday (probably a pearl as the wm phones i have used have all seemed to be piled of ****e).
Everytime i try to activate my phone on my home wifi network, it freezes. Anyone experienced that, got a fix? It's ridiculous how touchy this phone is and annoying.
Actually, perhaps you can suggest some other fixes to annoyances.
I dial and then put the phone to my face, and poof, my cheek hangs it up.
After boot, the message button won't open my poutlook, it opens but doesn't display. If i hit the text or email entry on the today screen, it works fine.
Bluetooth won't work correctly, insomuch as it won't output to the headset but people can hear me fine
I get notification i have a voicemail, and i dismiss it.. so dismiss the bloody thing - i still have the notification by the clock, i want to REMOVE the link to voicemail by the left bottom softkey.. so i can see other notifications, annoying, annoying, annoying.
Overall i find this phone to be a bulky, heavy, clumsy, unresponsive POS. I know that's a negative thing here, but i am really frustrated.

Chill out, relax. I've been using the wizard without any problems whatsoever but if anything, the WiFi is a problem because of my stupid router (a WRT54GC). But even then, once it's associated, it's not a problem. I have a Belkin downstairs which is the gateway device and I have 0 problems associating and using WiFi with it. My device is an XDA Mini S.
Now, enough about me, here's a few questions:
When you say lock up, what locks up? The whole phone? Does pressing the keys bring up the keypad lights? Is this the case after a hard reset as well?
I can't use my cheek to disconnect the phone ...maybe because I have a screen protector on? I don't know but I never had this problem :S
No comment on the poutlook but mine works fine with everything so far :S
I haven't used BT for headsets but this might depend on the profile used by the headset.
I don't use voicemail so I can't say much about the notifications.
The wizard is by no means flawless but I have not come across anyone with the same problems as you...but then again, I've been away for a fair bit :S

the message notification is terrible. If there's a voicemail. You can't see anything else until you check it. Dismis just brings it back. All other dismiss fine. THisis on my sx-66 wm5

"Quiet display mode" on TYTN ?

Dear All,
Is it possible to configure the Tytn to keep the display *off* on
events like receiving a SMS, MMS or while a bluetooth headphone is trying to connecting to it ?
Kind regards,
Davide

So far I've not found a way to do it. Any particular reason why you don't want the display on? If it is because it's in your pocket then you can always get a case to protect the button...
Not sure what other reason you'd not be want to be notified. I suppose you could always switch the device off
Or you could set the display off timeout to be rather low...
Sorry, I'm not being helpful am I

Exactly. When the TyTn is in in its pocket case and an event arrives, it is possible that some button can be pressed and some application starts.
This is very annoying!

Ahh, for the button thing in pocket, i've disabled the front buttons on the phone and stuff and have got a hard case for use. No other way around it alas

Question concerning using bluetooth.

Ok so i decided to buy a bluetooth handset since i am receiving over 50 calls per day and i have this really annoying problem.
I have the cell either in my pocket or my briefcase or wherever, and then i get a call. I click on my handset, i talk, i click again, i am done with the call. Thing is that the screen stays active and numerous times i am either making calls, or press buttons i dont want to, because pressure is applied on the screen.
So my question is, isnt there a program which isolates the screen from lighting up except if you press the I/O button ?
