Hi there! I hope anyone of you has a solution for my problem; it is really annoying. I have a QTEK 9100, which I have recently upgraded to the latest English version 2.17 using aWizard. Everything was working just like a charm. But I have a weird problem. When I turn on the device lock (on today screen) and don't use the device until it turns off, I cannot get It out of sleep mode. No chance to unlock again... all I can do is a soft reset and this is not too amusing (at least for me :wink: ). Do I miss something elementary?
Any hints to solve this are warmly welcome!
I know that this won't solve your current problem, but you might want to upgrade to the latest ( German ) QTEK 2.18
I ran the 2.17 ENGLISH before, without problems and flashed my MDA VARIO last night to the 2.18 GERMAN QTEK - works like a charm too!
Thanks dreamboxer! I've tried that yesterday evening, but the result has been the same. Could you try something for me? Turn the device lock on (today screen), then wait until the device "turns off". After a while (around 5 minutes) try to turn it back on. In my case the device does not respond and I have to soft reset. Thanks if you have the time!
there's no problem with device lock today plugin in this and any version rom. turn the device on (by pressing the power button) then pres left softkey (Unlock) and finaly TAP the Unlock button on the screen. if this isn't working there's might be some third party app you're using that is making a problem.
Hi dddrko
Thanks for your answer. Your instructions are exactly what I was trying to do. I have no third party applications installed at all for limiting the cause of the problem. When I press the power button to turn the device back on, there is no softbutton because the device hung up. Sometimes I see the soft button, but after using it the screen turns white and I have to soft reset.
Thank you anyway for your help!

i think i have the same problem, but i think you will find that the device does not hang but rather the backlight turns off and it is not possible to turn the backlight back on with a screen tap. what i have to do is look very carefully and go into settings -> backlight -> and turn it back up to the top of the slider!
Thanks s4vva; I've had that problem every once in a while as well. I wonder if I am the only person having this problem. Can anybody confirm not having this issue please?
Thank you!

Just bought mij S100 and already a problem. My phone automatically shuts down the display, this is nothing strange. But when I want to turn it back on again using the on/off button, sometimes it does not react (sometimes it does). When this happens, i also cannot receive any calls. I tried to call myself with another phone and it did not ring. It looks like a crash to me. When I do a soft reset it works again.
I have the newest Qtek rom (1.12.00 WWE / 1.12.550 WWE) installed. Originally the phone came with T-mobile software.
I hope someone can help me with this problem.
If there is a problem with the power button, then you can go into Settings - Button Lock - do not lock buttons. This way you can turn on your device using any of the green or red buttons.
hi robbertje,
sometimes i have the same problem on my MDA compact (=imate S100).
on/off button does not respond - display dark.
soft reset resets the MDAc and everything is ok.
then a few days no problems. if this problem occours then more times.
I found out that if my MDAc is in this state and if I pull the SD Card out of the device, the screen is on but frozen. The time which is shown an the screen is not correct. Seems that it shows the time when the device went to the freeze status.
Also battery is very low after such problems.
I used to have it when I first upgraded to big storage. A hard reset seemed to fix the problem. What I found was that the screen would react, but it could be up to a minute after I hit the power button. Same thing when the screen was on, I'd hit Start and wait. After a while the start menu would pop up. This was before I even managed to install any other software so it's a windows bug that's fairly random. I haven't had it happen for a few months now, though.
I think PPCProfiles made the problem. I reinstalled PPCProfiles and it seems that the problem is solved but I will see ..................
Hey, I've already ur problem. It's an hardware problem!
The mess is that, when the PDA is cold (strange, huh?) it won't reactivate, causing to do a soft reset. Mystically, the LEDs are still functioning (I mean, if it's green, it will continue to blink BUT doesn't change for any reason)
The only way to fix it is to send it to the repairing center. Sorry for who is out of warranty.
Cheers,

new ROM?
In this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=25761 it is said a new ROM wil fix the problem ...
Is this possible?
check http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=27956&highlight= too - may not be relevant, but it shows that power button wierdness can actually be the result of a dodgy battery.
remove your battery,and wait 1 day,my problem solved this method...
Hi,
Have next problems. After every power-on:
1. opens outlook mail;
2. have keyboard and main buttons locked. Stilus-screen is OK.
after pressing e (internet explorer)button or comm.manager buttons everything is OK;
3. pressing center button in d-pad opens ScreenAlign (as after hardreset), and after completing this continues normally as expexted;
4. cann't hard reset, because Send button don't operates as p.2 above.
It is Qtek 9100 orign.
Have flashed Qtec, T-mobile and Jam latest roms, exact same behavior
Can anybody help?
And sorry my poor english language.
Tiit
Damn...
My wizard acts exactly the same..... I've spent couple of hours to see if there is any solution of this problem on the forum... Well, there isn't.....:/ NOONE wrote a single word.... Even something like "there is no way to fix it, flush your wizard in the toilet"... Experts...
I'm sorry for being so annoyed, anyway i still request for help and I would be grateful if someone could give a tip
try to flash one of the 6 or 6.1 ROMS perhaps? If that doesnt fix it, then I dont know what to tell you!
I have this issue too. The only thing that works is to keep pushing on, under and around the Lock button on-screen. It will eventually unlock itself but it takes quite a lot of tapping
Hello,
I upgraded my ROM from QTEK web Site last week (2.17.7.6 FRE). Everything is running smoothly, but for one:
In the POWER control panel, I set up the Wizard to shut down after one minute when battery powered, but it doesn't.
So when the phone is in my pocket and rings, it wakes up and doesn't shut down. As a consequences, buttons are pushed inadvertently.
It used to work very fine before the ROM upgrade. I Hate using the 'lock' function, because I have to manually lock and then press many buttons on screen to unlock. I tried changing the settings many times, rebooting, etc, with no luck. The control panel for backlight control does work.
Does anyone have an idea of what's wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Guillaume
By "switch off" I meant "stand by".
Sorry for my english...
First Soft reset your device, see if it can "stand by", if it can, try to lunch the "Camera" and close it, try to "stand by" again, ifyou cannot, That 's the probem also with me. hope they will fix this in the next release, BTW did any one success to run the O2 2.21 on Qtek 9100, if someone do, please tell us how can you get it, since I have no way to unlock the CID.
My wizard is currently running nbd v9.2 and few days ago i was listen to HTC Audio Manager and it kept freezing so i ended the program and started the program back up several time. Finally i decided to restart the phone and i put it in my pocket, when i looked at the phone again the nbd screen was still on, i thought nothing of it, so i pulled the battery out and started the phone again. The samething happened the tmobile screen comes up and shows my IPL 2.26 ,SPL 2.26 ,GSM and OS. Then the nbd screen comes up and stays there. The screen will stay on for a minute or so, go off, lite back up and finally go out. And when i touch the screen nothing happens...i fear the worst . Can anyone help me?
You need to do a hard reset. follow these instructions:
* Press and hold both the Comm Mannager Button and the Voice Command Button
* While keeping those two buttons pressed, press the Reset Button with your stylus
* After about a second you will be prompted for confirmation. Press the Talk Button to confirm
That should hard reset and the phone should restart like new.
P.S. If you read a little oyu could get this without starting a new thread
Hi guys,
I have a problem with my HD Mini. I searched for it, but I didn´t find help. If the same problem is solved in another thread, please post the link.
When my device is in slepp mode (screen black) and I want to wake up (press on/off button) nothing happens. The only way to use the device is to remove the battery and turn it on again.
Sometimes I can wake up the device normaly (press on/off button -> slide bar down -> everything is normal), but only in 2 of 10 cases.
The device is running in sleepmode normaly, I can recieve messages, it vibrates and the green light flashs.
I tryed to fix it by an hard reset, but that didnt help.
I hope anyone knows how to fix it.

Same here, a hard reset didn't help, I mean problem comes out also with a clean installation. You can only remove battery or wait for someone to call/sms you..
Thanks... I have searched it, but it seems like there is no real solution to this problem.
but i´ve read somewhere, that if you put yout device to sleep when its in shortcut-homescreen (9 shortcuts), there is no SOD. It seems to work.
if anyone got an better solution...
try to flash ur rom, it looks like the device bricks.

OK, thanks for all your help.
Since wednesday evening my HD mini is ok. I can´t say how I solved the problems, I made a few hardresets and suddenly it works fine. Now I test some things step by step to look whether I can find the reason. At the moment I guess it´s something with the sd card...
If I will find something I will tell you, perhaps its helpfull.
ok, here some news.
since my last post my device worked well. today I tried to put in my sd-card and I formated it with the HD-mini internal formating tool.
after 5minutes i got the good old SOD, now I turned the card out again restartet the device and everything is all right again.
