Device Lock problems with 2.17 wwe

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!

killed my orbit 2 - volume screen on startup window

Hi,
I've managed to kill my Orbit 2! Everytime it starts up it gets as far as the Windows Mobile splash screen then shows the volumn control (both levels turned down) but goes no further. The power button still turns the screen on and off and the screen still dims after a while with any key bringing it back to full brightness, but nothing happens!
Has anyone else had this problem?
Also, I've looked in the forums, but can't find details anywhere of how to hard reset this phone! The only instructions I've found relate to non-existent buttons!
http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_touch_cruise_polaris_hard_reset_soft_reset.html
Can anyone shed any light on why this is happening or how to hard reset!
Thanks in advance,
Nick

it is the bottom two buttons (below the answer & hang up) and the stylus for a soft reset.
When it asks for a confirmation hit the green answer button
Hope this helps

Thanks NC35 - that did the trick!
Luckily I backed it up on Sunday so shouldn't have lost too much!

Thanks
Having tried ( now three times with no help ever) to speak to O2 and ask how to hard reset following the start menu completely failing..... I was told it was "impossible" you will need to return it and use the "28 day" repair service.....
I have at last managed to restore - thanks to this posting!!
No comes the reseting process - which is a bit of a bore!!
O2 seem to have dispensed with any actual tech support at all!!

The procedure of performing hard reset is perfectly explained in the manual that comes with the phone. "hard reset" is included in the index of this manual, so it takes only a couple of minutes to find out what you have to do.
After all, RTFM ;-)

most likely flashing another rom will fix your problem

I have downloaded the hard-spl. I'm completely stuck. I can't connect my pda to activesync. activesync didn't detect my pda. by the way, when I reset the pda, screen that asked to press SEND for restore to factory setting turn up few minutes after resetting. press green button, screen automatically shows windows mobile startup screen. I'm still stress, |I'm sorry but I can't helped it..

Herald won't turn on.

My Friends HTC Herald won't turn on. I tested the battery with multimeter and it shows that it is charging but none of LED`s are on when it is charging. I have no idea what could have happened. Please help!
Sorry for my English

Check this thread first:

No picture is coming out. It is not bricked or something like that. Last time it was flashed about 4 months ago.
I even cant go in bootloader.

Anyone

Please do not double post to bump a thread. It's only been a day and not everyone had been online since then.
If it won't go into bootloader and it won't turn on, then it might be dead, unfortunately.

I want to tell that it turned on one time, but SIM card was not inside so it had to be turned off, but after that it did not turn on.
Sorry about that bumb.

is your phone back on? this happened to me recently. mine is hard spl'd. i tried pressing different button combinations like the power button and the 2 soft keys and it finally turned on. resurrected!

No , its still off. And I dont have HardSPL. What buttons did you pressed?

Are you surely unable to enter the bootloader?
(Press & Hold the Camera-Buton, in addition press for only one second the Soft-Reset-Button, hold the Camera-Button until the bootloader [RGB-Screen with max. 4 lines of text in the red container] appears!)

Screen is ON but stay black when I unlock the phone

Hi,
I just bought a HTC HD 2, French and unlocked version.
I have a big issue with my phone: The device start, I use it 10 Minutes then lock it (stand by).
When I push the wake up button, the phone seem to work but the sreen turn ON and stay Black... By saying the screen is ON, I talking about the backlight
I tried a Hrad reset several times but the screen is black at boot.
Can this black screen issue is caused by a software problem? Beacuse the screen work well for some minutes...
Thanks for your answers

If there isn't even a boot loader splash screen i would say its something major. If you have only just got it then i would take it back or have you flashed a custom rom or used goldcard to flash a different stock rom. If you haven't I would take it back.

I have had my HD2 for about three weeks now. It came with 1.43, but have later on upgraded to 1.48 and now Im running 1.61. Two days ago I started to encounter a really annoying problem.
When I wake up the screen and slide the button the home screen appear but after one second, the screen turns off back to lock. Then I can unlock again, and again one second later the screen is off and back to lock. This often continues until I remove the battery.
Have you experienced the same problem?

Optiknerd, Thanks for your answer. I called UPS on 24 December, they're coming today.
I was just hopping there was a solution...'cause it's hard to quit this phone....
I never installed a modified ROM. The firt black screen apaired 10min after my first use. Even at boot I can't see anything and I have to Push ON/OFF more than 20 times to wake the screen up....

Did you install any software when the phone was working okay?
Also, when you get the black screen, hold down the power button and see if you get anything. I've had mine go black screen on me and that brought up the quick list. I selected lock and it worked fine after that.

See this please http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=606093, let me know if you have the same problem as me,cuz I havefigured out a solution and it works for me at least 2 days.
