2nd hard reset in 12 hours!!

ok guys, ive been hanging around this forum for some time (even though i havent participated <<< bad boy =P)
the thing is my phone kinda hangs, so i have to soft reset it, but wen it loads again, it stays on the cingular splash screen and just hangs, even though the LED's on top flash, but i cant do anything, i tried soft resetting again, but same thing, i tried removing battery, also no use...so the only option i had to hard reset it..
and after the torture of restoring all the applications and contacs and info, everything was fine till it froze again, so after the soft reset, same problem occured as above... >.<
my device is an unlocked cingular 8125, no overclock no nothing...only added a 1gb mini sd...
any suggestions??

What software do you have installed? It maybe a software issue ? After a hard reset try using it a day w/o loading your software to see if the problem occurs again. Then load your software one by one until the problem comes back. That's probably what I would do.

well its no specific software, it almost happened 2day too.
the first time i did the hard reset, last install i did was install PHONEPROFILE, then the 2nd hard reset, last app i installed was morphgear. and a couple of hours ago, i resarted, it took time to load back but it finally loaded.
could this be a rom problem?

May be your minisd - reports of this have been due to the card. try it a while without the card and if it made a difference format the card on the device with storage tools (google it). Which rom are you using? an upgrade in rom may solve your problems and give you a faster device.

this is wat i get wen i click on device info:
Rom version: 1.8.11.1 WWE
rom date : 11/24/05
radio version: 01.09.11
protocol version: 4.0.13.20
extrom version: 1.8.11.103
does it look bad? =S
(the date give me the idea that the rom needs updating maybe??)
as i said, this device had no "modding", no rom upgrades, no nothing..
i bought the phone, popped in the mini sd, unlocked the device using lokiwiz 0.2b
nothing else

Would go for an aku2 rom, the official leaked cingular one ftp://xda:[email protected]_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship.exe
Would suggest still try the phone without minisd in and if you do decide to upgrade rom back everything up.

as for software wise morphgear works fine on my device so i doubt its that i noticed that when i installed phonealarm on my fone it lagged to **** everything. gl on getting it fixed

ok, i searched around the forum for the definition of a rom and wat it does..
i KNOW that a rom is kinda like the basic files to run the device, but wat other jobs will it do? and wat changes will i c if i upgrade to AKU2 , and is there a ROM that has built-in arabic support? (i.e. arabic is supported w/o any 3rd party software)

problem with wm6

i installed wm6 the other day on my spvc500 and everything went well.
the phone started, but when i gave it a restart, it just wouldnt connect to my network...
it stays in NO service state and does nothing...
i really dont know what to do...please, help me...
i'm freakin for not knowing what to do....

WM6 problem & SPVC 500
HI,
I had the same problem and I know explanations.
Problem is in software which you installed after flashing WM6 to your SPV.
When you installing software everything is working on 100% ,but after restaring mobile
phone starting very long time ,doesn't have signal and time on main screen.
You have only one option ,re-flash WM6 again ![/COLOR]
Uninstall software hasn't influence!!!
be carefully with installation new software, I don't know where is problem exactly >
Here is list of software which is working without problems on my phone:
Extreme agenda 3.02
Smart explorer 2.1.4.553
SP Task Manager 2.1.1.315
Slovo ED
Adobe reader
Don't install :
profile switcher
cele task
If you are using different software you have only one way how to find "good" and "wrong" software.
After reflashing WM6 install only one program and restart the phone if everything will be working program is OK.
But if no you have to reflash WM6 again !!!
Be careful, all your data will be lost.

I got the same problem, after installing some software i got no network anymore.
Also the menue did not respond anymore on pressing 'Start'-button
I had to flash my Amadeus again, because also a hard-reset didn't help.
Now i think i have installed all the software again and it works still well
edit: 10 minutes after i rebooted my amadeus and BANG, nothing works anymore.
Crap.
I think the problem is 'facade', a tool to show a schedule on the homescreen.

it all works now
well, i managed to solve my problem...
the thing was to flash this WM6 and now everything works jut fine...
i can finally say that i am pleased with my c500!

Before I try this Version of WM6: Do you use Facade?
I flashed my Amadeus with WM5, installed Facade, rebooted and nothing worked. After that I flashed WM 6, did not install Facade and everything is ok

I got the same problem, but after hard reset everything was ok, so reflashing WM6 was not necessary.

My Camera will not work anymore??

everything was fine, no problems with the phone at all, than I installed Duttys 4.1 rom and ever since the camera doesnt work. I got the camera to work once since then by un-ticking the camera tab from the Touch flow, soft resetting, then ticking the tab again but now thats not even working. I have installed 2 diferent roms since then and it still doesnt work. also the photo album doesnt work from that tab anymore but does in the program list where as the camera doesnt work at all.
Any help would be great

Have the same problem myself and have yet to find an answer

I found a guy that used advanced config to change one of the camera settings but I tried it and it didnt work

When you flashed the ROM, did you put the phone into boot loader manually, or did the installation software do it?

the installation software did it

I tried that myself and it worked for a while (a couple days) then the camera stopped working again. That trick has not worked since that first time. I have changed roms a couple of times and still nothing.

Same here. Also I did accidentally install a rom with the wrong spl and had to hard spl after installing the rom. I think I went from 1.14 to 1.56 or something like that. I had a green tint to the screen until I did the hard spl. I have installed many roms since then and have not had a problem. I did not have a camera issue before this but the camera did work for quite a while after the spl issue. Hopefully this makes sense what I am saying.

so you are saying your camera was fixed after you "re- hard SPL'd" your phone?

No, I have an unlocked telstra phone and I had flashed my rom a couple times without needing to hard SPL my phone and never had a problem with flashing roms or the camera. It was only after I flashed to a rom that needed the phone to be Hard SPL'd and I didn't properly Hard SPL my phone before flashing the rom. I got the wierd "green tint" to my screen and realized that i had incorrectly Hard SPL'd. I quickly realized my mistake and then did it correctly and then the newer rom worked fine. It was a couple weeks later that the camera stopped working. I can't remember if I was on the same rom or not from when I Hard SpL'd my phone.
Sorry if this is hard to follow.
My thought is, did my upgrade without properly Hard SPL'ing my phone damage the camera or is it something else. Again, I have since properly Hard SPL'd my phone and flashed many roms since without a problem except the non-working camera.

well I don't know but I hard SPL'd my phone the day I got it with the 1.56 HSPL and I have used may roms on this phone. The rom I installed when this happended was duttys WM6.1 rom

I was trying to revert to an older Hard SPL 1.14 and install an older rom to see if that did the trick. Anyway, in my haste I screwed up and installed the older Hard SPL 1.14 and forgot to add in the older Rom so I ended up with the green screen of death. I couldn't get it to connect via activesync and put it in bootloader mode and re-Hard SPL'd it to 1.56 and the green screen was gone. I was about to go back to the Hard SPL 1.14 with one of Duty's older pre 1.56 Roms but thought I would check on the camera again one last time.
Now the camera works. Again, this is not the first time I have gotten the camera to work and I have no idea how long it is going to last but it is working and I am not going to mess with it anymore right now. I will leave the Hard SPL 1.56 and Miri's WM6.5 Rom that I have on the phone alone and see how it goes.
I know this is not a complete answer and I don't know if just re-Hard SPL'ng will work but it is worth a shot. Again, I downgraded first 1.14, screwed up the phone the went back to 1.56 and the camera started working again. At least I know that it is probably not a hardware issue as I have no where to send it back to for repair. All is well in Wisconsin for the time being.

Well two things:
1st can you just tell me exactly what you did, step by step. If I understand you correctly, I have already tried this but there may be a step or 2 that I missed. please include the roms you went from and two also
2nd, just called HTC and they said my the #'s my phone still has some warranty left and they will honor it in the states (I will reflash to tesla rom and the stock SPL before I send it)
Thank you for keeping me up to date on what you have done to get yours working. If your camera fails again, just call the # on the US HTC customer service site.

hello there ,
1.14 radio is the problem ,
try to flash new one which is 1.16 in same form
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529031
or try to get into 6.1 and then Hard Rest with out Upgrade to dutty ,
seems problem in driver...
best regards

I havent had 1.14 on my phone since the day after I got it...

I am not very good at step by step instructions but you have obviously done a lot of flashing already, I will keep it short. Again, this started out as a botched attempt to downgrade my Rom to an older WM 6.1 Rom using the old 1.14 Hard SPL. You might not want to do this as it will temporarily screw up your phone. If you do, here are the steps I took. Really not too involved. Please read all steps first.
1. I synced my phone and downloaded the older 1.14 Hard SPL and flashed it.
link
2. That screwed up my phone "Aweful Greenscreen effect" and was not able use activesync anymore for flashing. I then put the phone into bootloader mode by powering off the phone. Hold in top power button until it asks if you want to power down. Yes. Then when you power up hold the volume down key and the power button at the same time. Make sure your USB cable it still plugged in. Your phone should now be in bootloader mode.
3. I downloaded the most current Hard SPL 1.56 and ran the HSPL Wrapper Blackstone 156OliNex
4. After that the Green Screen problem was gone and when I checked my camera it worked. I took a couple of photos and no problem. I opened it first with the WM Camera Program button then with the Manilla tab. When I used the Manilla tab it had to map the camera/videocamera button as we as find the photo album. After that it has showed up in Manilla normally every time I go back to it. Again, we will see how long this takes.
Thanks for the info on possibly being able to return the device for warranty reasons to HTC.
Hopefully this helps and my links work.

if you don't mind me asking, what dutty rom did you install because this all started for me when I insalled duttys 4.1 WM6.1 rom

Update
When I said I took the phone all the way back to stock, it wasnt 100% true. I loaded a stock HTC rom not a telstra rom.
with that being said, today I got the RMA # from HTC to have the phone repaired so I downloaded the newest updated Telstra Rom and loaded it onto the phone.By the way, My phone did not have the newest Telstra rom on it ever! When the phone was done, I started to prepair to load the newest stock SPL to go along with the rom when I notice the camera works..... What the hell?!?! I try loading a custom rom on it (miris 6.5 rom), camera still works! Hard reset the phone, camera still works. I don't know what this means but my phone is back on line with all features!
Thanks for everyones help and input

Keep your eye on it. It is almost like it slowly looses the connection to the camera and then has a hard time remaking the connection once it is lost. Then you have to do something drastic to get it back. I wouldn't mind so much if it only happened every three or four months but so far I have not been able to keep the camera going past two weeks without loosing it again. Keep me posted if yours goes out again.

Well that didn't take long. Camera is dead again. Going back to WM 6.1 and SPL 1.14 to see if that makes a difference. "unable to initialize" then camera and album disappears from TF3D.

What I ended up doing ( and I did it more then once cuz I tried to load a wm6.5 rom on it) was as fallows
starting with many different wm 6.5 roms, radio: 1.13.25.24 and HSPL 1.56
step 1: I flashed the newest telstra rom (Telstra_WWE_1.59.841.6_Radio_52.64.25.34_1.14.25.24)+
step 2: hard reset
step 3: flashed this custom 6.1 rom (gave up on trying to find a 6.5 rom that worked), L26 ultimate V3.55
step 4: hard reset
step 5: synced to my PC
step 6: loaded all my cabs (soft resetting after every 2 or 3)
Now Miris 6.5 V26 came close to working but when I would sync via PC or Microsoft My Phone it the camera bug would come back.
I am at about 18 hours without the bug. I have soft reset, changed the battery, synced the phone to my PC, called, received calls and text so far...

big problems

I have the phone for almost an year without having any problems at all.
Approximately 1 month ago i installed a theme (from this forum) and it worked perfectly untill i decided to change it with another one (also taken from the this forum).After the restart the main screen froze and the touch flo was not active.I could only scroll the menu and acces it.
Also, i could't change the wallpaper.
After this, i tried a hard reset and apparently everything came back to normal EXCEPT: the internet connection didn't work at all no matter the settings i've made and from time to time a "dont send" error popped up. The error was : AudioManager_eng.exe.
After this, i updated my rom (from the htc official website) and had another hard reset and still NOTHING.
In fact i noticed other errors as well.When i tried to acces the mussic tab - audioManager_eng.exe error appeared, when i open wm another wm error appeared.
PS: i also had the storage card formated hopping to solve the audiomanager_eng.exe error (no result)
What should i do now? I feel like i tried everything ...
PS2: i am sorry for the possible mistakes
english is not my mother tongue. Also please try explainig a sollution in simple terms so i can understand step by step what i am supposed to do
thanks

please help....

Have you tried a hard reset to restore everything to default? Or removing theme which started all problems? When you flashed a new rom you may have added more problems, especially if you didn't follow this guide. Depending on what rom you flashed your SPL may not match causing incompatibilities. Does the screen look distorted when you start/boot up phone? Does this discolourization go away when you press power on/off? If so you have a mismatching SPL. Read and follow the dummies guide to see if this fixes some of your issues.

I didnt flash the rom.I had an upgrade .This one: http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=2&dl_id=533
And YES, i also had not one hard reset but 4 or so.Can that harm the phone?

Active Sync worked now it doesn't

Hi All,
I was using a stock ROM 1.66 for about a week. All was well. Tried a few other cooked ROMs and again all was well. Have been using AxLor v5. It is a great ROM. I went to use Active Sync a couple of days ago and I cannot select anything except One Note, Files and Mobile Favourites. Phone is detected and syncs the available data without issue. Posted this on the Axlor thread 3 days ago, no reply yet. Anyway today I went back to the stock Radio and stock ROM. AS still doesn't work. Have done HR and SR. I tried someone else's cooked ROM and nada. Returned to Radio's for 576Mb and AxLor's ROM, still nothing. No AS. I have uninstalled AS aka v6.1, cleaned the registry and then installed again. Same thing, only One Note etc. After another HS I returned to AxLor v5 and Radio 206.50.23.3. Have done a Full HS using the Volume Buttons and PWR button method AND pressed the red button inside battery compartment AND using the system settings menu method. After all that Active Sync still does not work. Has anyone got any ideas?
Thanks

No one got any ideas here? Help me Obi Wan?

I had an issue like this and I deleted all the partnerships in active sync on the phone and resetup and it worked?>?
Oh and I had rebuilt several times and it seemd that the syn settings I think were conflicting as I was trying to syn external exchange and local pc with the same settings ... tasks I think it was

I see. Ok I will try this and post back. Thanks
