imate jasjar hangs and hangs and hangs...

my imat jasjar with the latest rom (1.13.53) and latest radio(1.04.02) sometimes freezes 10 times a day, forcing me to soft reset (sometimes 3 or 4 times in a row) before it works again...i have tried everything from upgrading the rom, hardressetting, changing memorycards, leaving the device on instead of automaticly turning of....nothing works..
the worst is when i stop using it and put it on charge during the night, it does not wake up in the morning...i have to softreset everytime and all calls and sms that came in during that time where not received...can anybody relate to this problem, or am i alone in this....i really like the device, but missing my calls and resetting ten times a day, makes me wonder if i should go back to my trusted magician...maybe a rom from another device (o2,mda,qtek) would be a solution ?
any help is welcome

I'd get it replaced as it shouldn't be doing that. I've not had a single hang on my XDA Exec since I got it nearly a month ago.

do you really think it is a hardware problem....i find it more to be a software problem...and i would not like to be without my device for 1,2,3 or even more weeks...anybody know if the qtek 9000 rom is available somewhere...having had a qtek 2020,9090 and s100 and also tried a few mda's and imate's, i find these to be the best roms in general

@jesax, I had a JJ and I used all the features (inc. video calling and UMTS downloads) but only had a freeze with SMS notifications and downloading emails over UMTS. You device could have a hardware problem. The other possibility is the ROM is corrupted so you should try to download a new copy.

mine randomly hangs when using Agile Messenger. Stable the rest of the time.
Planning a hard reset shortly, will see if this fixes it.

in my case a hard reset does not change anything...i have done three and have changed to the latest rom...no dice
does anybody know where i can find the original jasjar rom or a good working english rom to try out or do a downgrade...
i am reaching in the dark here....

@jesax, did you download a fresh ROM from clubimate? Your original ROM could be corrupted

yes, i downloaded the latest rom from the imate site...no go...still the same problems...i first tought it was a charging problem, as it happens every morning when i take it from the charger....i now left the jasjar untouched for a few hours in closed position without the charger, and when i opened it up, it froze again, leading to a softreset.....HEEEEELLLP

@Jesax,
If I were you, I would have falshed the ROM again to my device as I think there is some kind of corruption to your installed ROM.
To get the latest ROM version go to this site :
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/
If it does not open, just go to this site and you can open it from there:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_FTP_Site
You can get it also from this site:
http://www.clubimate.com/t-DEVICE_JASJAR_UPD.aspx
But your device must be registered to axcess to this site.
Flash the ROM to your device and try to use it without up-grading the radio version to 1.04.02..... if you experience the same problem so it's definately a hardware problem and in this case you have to give it back, but I think it will work properly "I hope".
If you don't experience the same problem again, it might be either a problem with the radio version or a problem with any of the softwares installed on your device.
By the way, can we know which softwares are installed on your device at the time being??
Please let me know the result.
Regards,

jesax, okay. So you have downloaded the new ROM at least twice now from the clubimate site therefore we can assume the ROM is okay. Also please confirm that you are not using any third-party apps. Are you using a 3G or standard GMS SIM. Try turning off the radio functions (Fn+->) and see if the freezing stops.

Jesax,
Are you using spb pocket plus or any similar software??

thanx, i give it a try but am getting fed up with spending hours behind the computer resetting this thing...
the software i am running are :
resco file explorer
gpspocketmagic
launcher
tomtom 5.1 installed, working but like to freez up also when in use
tweaks2k2
that's about it
i do not use 3g but do use gprs...it was switched to "always on" with the reg hack, but i turned it back (you never know)
i will have a try when i com home this evening to turn of radio function, and charge it overnight (how do i do this, without taking out the sim )

on the wiki ftp site i see there is a 02 xda exec rom i can dowload.
can anyone recommebd this ?
should i give it a try instead of the jasjar rom, and will it install as easily as the jasjar, or will it ask for id's and codes?
thanx guys

@ Jesax,
Before flashing the ROM again to your device just un-install tomtom 5.1 and pocketmajic and see the result "you can use majic button instead" .... if it does the same, you will have no option but flashing.
Don't get fed up...... your problem will be solved, the Jasjar is a wonderful device and you will enjoy it once your problem is solved.

I wouldn't advise you to do that.
There is nothing wrong with the jasjar ROM.... and it's the most popular.
Regards,

jesax, as I said in my previous post, you can switch off the radio using the following keys on your JJ "Fn" + "->" and select the All Off option.
Also remove all third-party apps and see if stability improves. If it does add one app at a time back to see which one is causing the stability issue.
The XDA ROM only requires a code for the Coroprate option (code is 0506), the Corporate option is the best to choose at it has no O2 additions.

thanx...i don't think tomtom5.1 is the problem, as i was having this problem before the install of tomtom...pocketmagic i can't remember when i put it on (so many resets, so many....)
i will give it a go
what's annoying is that it does not happen on steady intervals...it can freeze up twice in a minute, and then work fine for ten hours.

would you recommend me trying it, or is the jasjar rom actually better...i don't want to spend another few hours flashing the o2 rom, if it is no use

another question...maybe related...
i have noticed that when i open up my jasjar from fully closed to "laptop" mode, the backlight does not come on everytime...sometimes it does, sometimes i have to push the "on button" to light up...
my backlight is set to go out on batterypower after 30 seconds, and to stay on with external power.
the powersettings are : turn off after 1 minute on battery power and stay on with external power

@ jesax,
Most probably your ROM is corrupted.... in this case a hard reset will not work, but a fresh flashing to the ROM will be the best solution.

"FRING is LOADING" ---> and nothing else happens! :(

I've just installed FRING....
Sometimes ago it worked correctly on my ELF....
But now, after I flashed a WM 6.1 rom, it doesn't work anymore....
I launch it and "Fring is LOADING" window appears, but the program doesn't boot up....
Any chance to fix this problem?
Cheers....

Whats about asking the fring developers/support?

Maybe someone here has the same problem.....
And a solution to fix it!

There are problems with compatibility of VOIP apps and WM6.1. Skype doesn't work too.

I ma also having the same problem
Hey guys,
Im new to the XDA developer site, recently i have upgraded my Imate Jas Jam from WM5(Telestra) to WM6(3 Network) using "HERM_DOPODASIA_WWE_3.54.707.3_6275_CustomRUU" I have downloaded fring from www.fring.com/cab
Installation is successful, but when i start Fring it simplay shows up the screen which says fring is loading then close application, tried too many times could'nt make this to work, any ideas...
your help is appreciated

Hey Guys,
I have just had the very same thing. I have installed FRING on a new Kaiser. It starts to load and then does nothing. I have left it for a while and as in your cases nothing happens.
I was able to soft reset the phone and then 'remove' the programme. so that I didn't need to rebuild the whole PDA - done that enough times today!
What I do know however is that FRING DOES work on Windows Mobile v6.1 ROMS as I have had it working correctly on another machine that I have rebuilt (Hermes)
I will continue to test.

OK gents, not good news I am affraid - this isn't something that is FRINGs responsibility seemingly. It is seemingly more related to the ROMS that are being used. This would add up as it worked with my HERMES running a 6.1 ROM but not this KAISER equally running a 6.1.
I have contacted the FRING development team to see if there is anything that they can do however I am not holding my breath.
Kind regards
Warren

I've got the same problem
Fring is always loading and nothing more happen.

I've been experiencing the same problem... It loads up....the only thing I can see is the "Welcome logo" and nothing else...
I am using HTC Touch elfin
I think it's because of the cooked ROM I've been using on my phone - since didn't have any problems with Fring while was running on the original HTC Touch ROM.

I had the same issue and gave up on it, contacted Fring, was told that they are aware of the problem are looking in to it.

Solved in last version a few days ago. Download at www.fring.com

Its the same problem with the new version

bingo!!! fortunately it works for me..I am using the elfin with the specs in my siggie..fring works. downloaded the latest version. after first install, it was stuck..then did a soft reset and it started automatically.

Setup Application (first boot)

Hi all,
I tried searching the forums for this particular weirdness but could find it.
I recieved my HD2 last week and had the crackling ear piece problem, with no help from T-Mobile i decided to flash the device with the latest HTC Rom it corrected the problem and everything is working fine.
There is one little thing i have noticed though which is weird, when booting the phone for the first time when it had the TMO rom it gave me a pre-setup application or firstboot application whatever you want to call it.
With the new HTC rom it doesnt give me this when i hard reset is this normal?
Thing is when i turn off the phone for a brief moment it shows the same setup application as running in the background?

switch teh phone into airplane mode and you should find the background app comes to teh front and you can complete it.

wouldn't a task manager allow you to switch to it?

Geocaching GCZII (... 45) stops when downloading

I own a HTC HD2, and use for geocaching: GCZII; latest version. (..45)
I do use this great software for for 2 years now. It runs fine on my HTC touchflo, HTC HD but not at my HD2. It's not the general problem (cannot download...) this causes by the server of groundspeak.
My problem: the list is downloaded without probs, internet-connection is good, GPS is fixed. When I want to download the caches themselves, then after a while (after 'bout 250 kb) the prog shuts down. I tried for 500 caches, for 20 etc. but when I download them one by one, most of the time it works well (not always). I do have another fine prog: Gatecacher, but... the same problem appears. So I suppose it will not be that software. My device is clean and empty. ROM: 1.66.404.1; radio 2.07.51.22_2 It's not the provider 'cause my other devices have no problem.
It realy frustrates me 'cause after 3 wks I will be on holiday up to sweden, where are many(!) hidden geocaches.
Is here a real freak (yes) who can help me? Please..?
thx anyway.

Mine saves the list fine, but when viewing the caches themselves, it closes without error.
Their website doesn't exactly help with lost passwords either, just shows a blank page!

GCZII latest version is working again!! (....45)
I've got the solution: disable the static menu, so do not activate any box. Works fine now! Gatecacher might have the same prob. I'll try this evening.
gr Willem

I had the exact same problem - with disabling the static menu it is working fine now again! THANXXXXXXXXXXX a lot, wivo!!!!

seems to be a bug
do you guys also have the issue with version .47
for me it was crashing not always but some times when opening the "description".
When I tryed your hint
disable the static menu, so do not activate any box

it seems it helps for now,...
But it seems to be a bug - we should tell the developer about this issue.
So please verify if you also have the issue with the newest version using your HTC HD2
many greets Erich

Just found this thread!
I have an HD2 running Eleganica v3. I downloaded GCz II and it worked for abit then I got the "Cache not found" error. On top of that it interfered with my phone so much (reset defaults, froze the phone, etc.) that I had to do a hard reboot and reinstall of the ROM to get it back where it worked (the phone). Was this just a freak thing or is there a conflice? I'm trying to get into geocaching and would like to use the GPS on the HD2 for that if possible.
Just had the same result with gpsed, another program.
Thanks!

i tried to search any nearby caches. then comes an error. (check your login data!) i know that is all right. my gc language is changed to english. gps is good. what can i do?
i use the garmin asus m10.

Serious bug: auto reboot using camera

Hi guys!
I'm experiencing a serious problem with my X10: Using the stock camera app causes (50% and more of times) a reboot of the device
I'm still stuck with the R1FA016 firmware (Spanish, Movistar) and i thougt this could be the problem since nobody seems to have a so bad experience
Today i tried the Vignette app on the market and the bug is still there... what could be the problem?
Thank you.

I know it is painful, but have you tried formatting the device (restore factory settings)?

mmmm... i was thinking about it... do you think it could be a solution?

If you're using a task killer, check out you are not killing any camera app.

No i'm not killing camera app... (anyway, atk is set to kill apps every half hour)
I just formatted the phone and the bug seems to be still here... rebooting occours even if, in Mediascape i try to view taked photos!!!

Then, try one more thing: uninstall ATK, reboot the phone and let it handle the RAM as it is supposed to.
Perhaps ATK is the culprit! I know it caused me a great deal of problems in the past, until I finally realised that task managers do more harm than good on android operating systems.

@sleepyManX1
the update is out already try OTA update......

I also tried to insert photo app and some services (such as facerecognition) in atk ingore list... the bug is still here
So i'm trying this way: disable atk from autostart...

I've tried a lot of task killers/managers and at the end something started not to work properly. Since i don't use them everything is always ok! I recommend not to use them!!

Hi guys!
Any suggestion about this issue?
(I restored factory settings again and did not install any task manager/killer... still the bug is here )

Try to re-install firmaware using SEUS Wish you all the best

Yes... seems to be the only way... and i think i will flash the phone with a generic italian firmware... maybe the problem is in the movistar brand...
I just need a windows pc... (i've a ppc ibook... so no virtualization possible!)

I also have this problem with my desire, apparently after a search in XDA, problem exists in Nexus one (which is like HTC desire anyway) and HTC G1, G2.
seems no solution yet, I flashed my phone and installed the latest radio and a custom rom, still no solution.
hope someone can fix it

sleepyman x1 i too am on the same firmware as u and get the exact same problem im on three network uk, iv tried everything and nothing seems to solve it,,,, the only thing iv found that helps the camera bot up next time is when finished using the camera is to press the back button to exit camera mode and not to use the home button,
hope this is some help to you,
any updates of this would be great, the update doesnt seem to be there for my reigon yet, ( According to SE anyway ) they pretty much told me to sit tight and wait for he 2.1 in the last 4 mths of this yr

Thank you.
PS. Just today forced SEUS to reinstall my original firmware and the bug is still here... in the next days i'll try with an X10i_Generic_Italian (X10i_Custom_IT_Release_R2BA026)...

Let me kno how u get on bud. ?? Would like to see the out come
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

Be sure that i'll keep you informed

I also have "reboot" problem, but my phone reboots random - sometimes when I use Google Maps, sometimes when finish phone call, even sometimes when the phone is idle. I tried factory reset several times, updated to latest firmware (currently R2BA026) but no luck.
These days I will go to my local SE support center, I have no choice ...
