Hi guys,
i received my 2nd hand T-Mobile MDAII 2 days ago. When i powered it on, i saw that the WM2005 rom came from this site. Since i have a small "issue" with my phone i thought i would ask here (since google does not know the answer)
I love my new device, that's for sure. There's only 1 slight problem. To save some battery life, i turn on the setting to go in standby mode after 1 minute of not touching it. But when the phone goes in standby, i completly miss all incoming phone calls and text messages.
I tested this last night :
I send an text message to a friend of mine, asking him to send one back after 10 minutes. My phone goed into standby, and i wait. Half an hour later, no vibration (i hate ringtones) from an incoming message or call. When i pull my phone out of standby it suddenly vibrates because i have an incoming text message.
Is there a way that i can turn my phone into standby mode, but still receive incoming phonecalls and messages ? I now keep it on all the time, just letting the backlight go off but this consumes to much power i'm affraid.

i have a really weird problem. When i recieve an sms my display does not turn on ( even though i have the turn on selected in notifications for 5min). Instead if i don't read the sms, display turns on after like 20-25min.
Any solution to this?
I had a similiar problem in that my display would not turn on when a new txt came through even though I had it set in the notifications. I switched it off in the notifications and switched it on using HD tweak and it works now. I can't comment switching on after 25 mins as I never left it for that long before reading a txt.
1024 Leo, USA T-Mobile version.
It only happens with incoming email, SMS and calls are fine.
When I try to reproduce the problem, I simply have to wait for the phone to check for new mail. The the phone notifies me about new email. If I try to turn the screen on, it won't. The hard button lights up, indicating the phone is on but I can't interact with the screen. Resetting the phone via the red button is the only remedy.
If I act real fast when new mail comes, sometimes I'm able to start sliding to unlock but it still crashes. If I'm really fast I'm able to even get to the mail screen but it still crashes.
But the crash does not occur if I'm already using the phone when new email comes in. If I want to reproduce it, I have to leave the phone "alone", with the screen off. If the screen is on when the new mail comes in, the crash does not occur.
The problem started occurring with completely stock phone, the very first day, without making changes. As I cab tweaked the phone, (no ROM) the problem persists, it happens.
Because of this problem, when I wake up in the morning, I can't use my phone because the screen doesn't turn on and I have to restart the phone so I can use it. My mail send/receive interval is set for 4 hours so while I sleep the phone receives new email at least once.
I investigated similar problems for TP2 and Touch HD but it does not help.
I backed up everything on my phone so I'm ready to make changes if you have any advice. I checked for: changing the email ring tone, wake up on new email setting. They have no effect on this problem.
After this happens, I tried calling my phone. It will not ring, but the hard buttons light up but are unresponsive, I can't neither pick up nor reject the incoming call. I sent an SMS to the phone in this state, it didn't do anything.
Do you have knowledge that can help me? Is anyone willing to try to reproduce the problem on their phone?
All you would do is set any ring tone for incoming mail, leave the phone with the screen off and "wait" for new email to come in. Don't do anything for a minute and then check if the crash occurred.
Please help, I hate waking up to a crashed phone that I need to restart every time. Because of this problem, setting a wake up alarm is useless.
If you can't help with this, at least is there any way I can "force" the phone to restart without removing the battery cover?
Thank you.

The same thing has happened to me with email notification. On just a few occasions the vibrating has not stopped until I pressed the end call button to make it stop. I think this has happened three times in what is now almost three weeks.
patheltic bug. feeling like my leo is going to spoile anytime.
Mine also does this and so does my mates. I've not tried a cooked ROM as yet because I've only owned the handset for a week and in case I brick it I at least want to have owned it for a month haha
Any further news on this bug? The only way I can find to stop it from vibrating is to press volumn down until the phone switches to vibrate mode then turn the sound back on. Bit of a pain!
im having this problem too...its suddenly vibrate for so long until i remove the battery.. happening several times.

hi guys
i have a slight issue with the hd2..for the first time i have been left frustated with the device due to the occasional freezes but i can live with that..Can i just add the battery life is also doing my head
my main problem, within the last week or so i have noticed that i am receiving text messages late ranging from 1 to 30 mins (obviously it shows the time sent on the sms) this is mainly when the phone is locked and when i press any button it will vibrate and notify me of the msg regardless if the phone is on vibrate or on normal sometimes if the phone is locked and i go to unlock it there be 3 or 4 text messages showing this is really annoying as you can imagine receiving a sms 30mins after it was sent
i believe it may be a handset fault as i am receiving the text but as soon i press any button it wakes the phone up and my sms appear what you think?
im running stock 1.72 uk tmobile , searched this forum there are a few threads whereby other users have experienced this but i could not find a solution? shall i call tmobile? have you experienced this? any ideas let me know ..thanks
For the owners : Does this device have a led notification?
For example , when you have a sms/missed call... Is there a led blinking to see if there is a missed call?
I dont wanna turn on the device to check that
yes there is a Mod for that, i was asking t he same question couple of days a go and i found the answer by googling it and guess what! i found it in this forum
but honestly i can't remember which forum or what i typed in google.
but it works well, when i have a missed call or message, the capacitive buttons lit but don't blink...
The green led blinks on a missed call, but has no other type of notifications. Not emails, SMS, tweets or Facebook messages. Red for low battery, green for missed calls.

pfff , and there is no setup to let it also blink on a SMS?
So now you NEED to turn on the device to see if you have an sms if you have the phone on silent?
Is there an option to vibrate every 10 min or something when a sms is received?
Yup, abit disappointed you can't turn it on for SMS/Email, but it's better than no visual alerts at all.
I think the best bit abit this phone is that it's few shortcomings are mostly in the software, which can be easily updated... *crosses fingers*
i've noticed that when you receive an sms, the phone vibrates (in my case, i only use viberation mode), and as soon you get the phone out of your pocket the screen turns on.
At first i tought I made the mistake to accidently press the power button while getting it out of my pocket, but afterwards when i took extra care the screen comes on when you take it out, it doesn't unlock tho.
