Every work day at 4pm, my O2 XDA Exec changes the sound levels and switches my bluetooth OFF.
I remember setting this when I first got the phone, and obviously thought I could change it back. However I can not find what I did or how to get it back to the 'default' setting.
Anyone know?
re
if you have the original rom and have active ui(?) running...then on the today screen you'll find an option for profiles(?) or battery saving (?) ...been four five mounths since i had an o2 rom so am not sure....the same app shouls also be in your progs
Wahey! I hope that's solved it... MANY thanks..

Hi dude...
Well going in reverse from me, turn on the O2 active and select Extras, then power profiles.
From there you can set a timer up to switch a profile ON (inc. BT, WiFi, etc) at a certain time and OFF again.
I had forgotted how I'd done it in the first place...
And I'm not 100% if this is what you're asking but from my device information:
ROM Version: 1.13.82 WWE
Rom Date: 11/30/05
Radio version: 1.04.02
Protocol version: 42.37.P8
ExtROM version: 1.13.188 WWE

Hi guys,
My XDA keeps turning it's self on every 5 minutes or so. Even though there are no calls / SMS or events that I can see on the screen.
I've had to turn the backlight off, or it'll turn on in my pocket, and the battery will die within a few hours.
This happens even when I "Stop all" programs from running.
Any ideas?
4.01.00
Radio: 4.01
im with the same s/w version mine doesnt seem to do it that much only at night time it will just light up and light my room up making me wake up...
it doesnt do it all the while just every now and then..
lights up light goes off after 1 min then phone turns off after 5 min....
doesnt bother me much better version rom then hte others imo
Does it do the same after a soft reset ?
this is the "ghost in the machine"...there is no known way to get rid of it yet, I tried everything other ppl have sed to have worked, but mine still "wakes up"
If you have a German ROM, I would say that it is the HomeZone indicator. The device switches itself on with each BTS change.

Since there is still no official WM2003 release from O2 Germany there is no way to get the Homezone indicator running under that OS. The rilgsm.dll does not provide the appropriate information for HZ.exe to determine the current position (i.e. Gauss-Krüger coordinates of the current cell).
Perhaps other software is reacting to BTS changes? I'm running the 4.00.33 GER by T-Mobile, and this OS version doesn't behave that strangely.
Sometimes however there is a strange delay of a couple of seconds between pressing the power button and the device finally powering off. I've experienced that behaviour with all WM2003 OS versions I'v had installed so far (probably most of them currently around).

Dear All,
I wanna have some quick facts: Who have WM5 alarm not wake up issue?
The issue is- when you have scheduled an alarm (e.g. a morning wakeup call) and then suspend your unit, it fails to launch the alarm. When you turn on the unit, usually the unit realize the missing alarm and then re-sound the alarm for you. (Which is too late :evil: )
For people who encountered such issue, please enclose the following details:
1. Hardware (e.g. Qtek 9100, Dopod 838, i-Mate K-Jam, O2 XDA Mini S, etc.)
2. Firmware distribution and version:
a. IPL
b. SPL
c. GSM (hehe not quite related I think though)
d. OS
For me:
Hardware: Dopod 838
IPL: Qtek 1.01
SPL: Qtek 1.01
GSM: MDA 1.12.10
OS: O2 Mini 1.5.4.2
i have this issue only using spb time.
The internal alarm works without problems.
ROM 1.6.7.1 WWE
CPU OMAP850
WIZA200
OK, not all fact, but what i thought (until today) from reading many many posts.
1) Bad app design, no fix, wait for new ROM (possible, probable infact but maybe not)
2) When you change the alarm and standby the device before the alarm settings were saved properly (thus, when the device wakes it finishes the save and realises its past the alarm time) this is my fav answer!
I've had the problem in the past using my O2 mini-s UK with ROM 1.5.4.2 WWE. I started leaving the device for 2 min from setting an alarm to entering standby - no more problems.
Til today..
Yesterday i set the alarms like normal, used the phone for over 2 mins then entered standby with the mains charger plugged in.
At 4 am my 5 am alarm woke me, i turned it off, realised the time, almost threw my wizard out the window & went back to sleep for an hour. For info - the alarm WAS set for 5 am, the clock WAS right. Even when the alarm was going off it told me it was a 5am alarm & the clock was saying 4. The alarm then worked properly at 5.
Until there is a real fix for this i cant trust my phone to wake me, my old nokia's could manage the time & alarm, but the Wizard seems to find it too challanging
my 9100 does this all the time now. bugs the hell out of me.
i haven't heard of any other wm5 devices having this problem which might mean it's a wizard issue rather than a wm5 issue ?
:-(
It is a very common problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=31895
Please read through that thread first - and if at all possible, reply there.. unless your reply would be specific to the information requested by the poster here.
For what it's worth, I stand by my recommendation in that thread: just don't let your PPC go to standby, and use any of the freeware apps out there to turn the display (not just the backlight) entirely off. Your battery will drain only a *slight* bit more, but you will not run into the issue discussed here.
not sure where to reply. Probably here, it is less crowded and it is more of a WM5 topic here than a hardware topic there.
Anyway, just to let you know I have a MDA Compact 2 (aka HTC Charmer) which runs WM5. The alarm seems to worked fine so far. I have it set to 7am all day, using a the standard WAV sound. Works well.
I'm not sure if this matters, but the alarm works when it is in standby mode (aka one button will switch it on instantly) BUT it doesn't work if I had the device switched off (aka needs to bootup upon switch on).
And, the only problems that I had with the alarm is when I have a VERY big WAV file in it. The last time I had a 3.0MB WAV file as my alarm sound, the 'Reminder' failed to pop up and the alarm keep sounding. And if you had another alarm on it will still sound it together. Bit like a mixed up WAV in the system. Other than this, the alarm works well in Charmer.
I recently have a Dopod838 (I think) ROM (WM5) flashed into it and the alarm still works alright. Hopes this info helps.
Heya,
Yeah, if the device is entirely off (i.e. needs boot-up), then no alarm/etc. will run at all. In that mode, there is only enough power for the device to react to the button press to turn it on. This is similar to switching a regular mobile phone completely off. You'll miss any calls as well
I get the same problem, I just leave my phone on all the time.

If this helps, I use Pocket Candy as a screen saver and change the default s/saver to 'blank screen'. (Unsure if this completly turns the display off) but my phone fully charged with regular use (camera & vids as well) will last around 36 hours...
Pocket Candy can be found HERE:
I don't know how much people have been thru the same problem in wm2003;the reason why I have started this thread is to find out if there is an OEM secretly fixed the bug already. The time when I am using wm2003, OEM never really admitted the bug is fixed, but in fact the bug is gone after certain version of rom.
so hope everyone could post if you have the problem or not, as well as the detail rom version, so we could know if we could avoid this problem.
after I tried Menmaid and most all the solution on the internet out there, my alarm still not wake up from standby mode...
But yesterday, I found if i enable "voice commend" (which I disabled previously), the alarm will wake up from standby mode.
Hope that helps, my is MW 6.1
Had it at about 70% battery (around) last night, after 12 hours or so today, it refused to turn on.
I got it to turn on finally with a soft reset, and the battery showed 28%!!
I have no idea how it could have run down so fast, though it could have been something I left on (maybe wifi?).
I'm still surprised it would refuse to turn on at 28% though...
My Dopod 818 Pro is having this problem ever since I bought it. If I turn off the screen using the power switch or let it go to standby automatically, most of this time I can't turn it on again and have to do a soft reset.
I do not see a lot of Dopod users complaining about this problem so I am wondering if I have a faulty set. Other than this problem, everything else works fine.
i'm having the same problem. Do you think there will be a rom fix?
I just found an interesting observation regarding this sleep-to-death (STD) issue. If I left my Dopod overnight and got the STD problem the next day, the battery had drained considerably. It was fully charged the night before, but after 8 hours, the battery is only at 40 percent.
But since more than one person is having this issue, is it still a hardware problem?
This is not a hardware issue, its more like an unoptimised ROM issue. I suppose it will be fixed with an update in the future.
Leaving WiFi on does not matter because your device automatically goes into standby mode after a pre-defined time (3 minutes by default). In that case, even if you leave 10 apps running in the background, it won't make a difference for the aforementioned reason.
With the HTC Universal, what happened was that people would leave apps running in the background and once they are done using the device, they would just close the device thinking that it would shut off, but it wouldn't because the standy-mode was disabled by most people to get a snappier device. In such a situation, battery would drain rapidly overnight as the device hasn't gone into standby mode.
This situation will occur on the JAMin too IF there is no default standy-by mode set.
I have an HTC Universal (O2 XDA EXEC) and had the same thing happen to me two nights in a row. The battery was at 100% when i went to bed and i woke up and realized i was late as the alarm i had set didnt wake me up.
I had to soft reset the phone and the battery was down to 24% and then the alarm starting going off, a bit late though. I have had this phone for three days, and im not happy about this failing twice on me.
The only thing i have changed is running a coporate install (0506) so that o2 active wasnt on the phone.
Is there any fix for this??
Rom version: 1.13.82 WWE
Radio version: 1.04.02
Protocol version: 42.37.P8
ExtROM version 1.13.188 WWE
Go to Settings>System>Power and check the "switch off device after x minutes" option. By default it is 3 minutes, but i have set it to one minute as that serves my purpose. You will notice the drastic difference immediately .
It kind of sounds like an issue I've seen on my m600. It's a wm5 bug where activesync will try to connect all the time, randomly, even if your device is off. It can cause STD (sleep to death) and will. It's a simple fix. Just install the autosyncschedule.cpf and run it. It's a simple little .cab that will change some settings. Hope it helps
http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/bc/59d707c...amin/DisableSyncSchedule.cpf?bftVi9DBC7gsZI7r
If that link to my yahoo briefcase doesn't work, you can get this file at eten-users.net in the download section under /utilities/wm5. It solved all STD's with the eten and so far with my jamin. 8)
You can also fix the Active Sync bug manually.
To do so open ActiveSync on your WM5 device and tap on Menu>Add Server Source. Add any info to create a fake server sync. After that is complete go to Menu>Schedule and change the two dropdowns to "Manual" and tap "ok" at the top right.
Slept to death- I've sussed out why my device was doing this
I had an SD card from my i-mate Jam inserted, and after taking this out, the situation stopped happening. So if you've got an SD card in try running the device without for a while to see if that helps...
hi there, i have a question: my qtek 9100 drops the carrier very often. it turns on flight mode on its own... ive noticed this twice now after the phone is left on its own for about 4-5 hours...
i dont realise that has happened until i look at the phone and notice the signal LED isnt flashing anymore. then i have to press the icon, turn off flight mode and input my pin again...
is this normal?anybody heard of that?
i am running the rom i got when i got the phone which i think is pretty old...
Rom Version: 1.1.7.5
Rom Date: 9/22/05

186504-ruu_9100_2170702_21707102_20710_qtek_wwe_ship
.exe file from xda-developers...
i was hoping to wait to get a mini sd card first before saving the rom, is it worth the wait?
Thanks for answering and helping!

Rom Date: 2/10/06
Radio Version: 02.07.10

ExtRom Version: 2.17.7.102
What ive noticed so far:
1 much much quicker interface, with no lag when opening keyboard
2 battery in taskbar at top, but in programs, only the time appears, so thats really really good (set it in start>settings>system>clocks/alarms>more to show clock all the time)
3 hasnt gone into flight mode for no reason, and i did leave it whole night
4 alarm clock works, brings the device out of standby and vibrates and rings like crazy ( by standby i mean the phone part is working but screen is off)
Cheers, i highly recommend this version!

I had the same problem using the same ROM. It first worked like a charm, but than suddenly this started to happen.
Finally I upgrade tot the latest Dutch TMO Rom (2.21.2.5.NLD) and now everythinh is ok again.
Sorry I can't be of more help
I've got exactly the same problem on my XDA mini-s only I'm using the BT Rom from their website, I'm begining to wonder if an Application we're running is causing the problem such as: -
Phone alarm
Pocket Music
Tom Tom
Resco file Explorer
Pocket TV
GPS Dash
SPB Backup
Any similarities?
For me it seems SPB Backup causes this problem. After reinstalling a backup this 10 seconds thing appears all the time.
Same issue...
I had the same issue, posted a thread....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=54991&highlight=
There are a few comments, including one that alluded to a hardware issue, but I did not get it resolved. Any other comments are welcomed.
just to get this topic up again.
I also have the same problem ans also after an automated backup (weekly) using SPB backup.
I restored an older file from SPB backup and I do not have the problem any more. It seems that this happened when the scheduled backup was used.
I think this is no longer an SPB Backup problem as there are others here and on the other post that are not using SPB backup and are still getting the same problem.
My ROM Version is 2.21.4.1 WWE
ROM Date 9th March 06

EXT ROM Version 2.21.4.101
There must be somebody out there who understands what happens when you select "device locked" that is causing this to happen!
The device lock feature causes this bug.
If you don't want it to do that any more you have to do 2 things.
1) Turn off device lock
2) Change the registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Backlight\Locklevel\
Change the "LockLevel" value to "0".
Then your phone will remember your backlight settings again. 8)
I had the same problem. But i did an upgrade to the dutch rom.
I did not have the device lock on so I don't know if that may be the problem.
There are a lot of this tiny little problems on my phone. but I always try new stuf on it, so I hard reset and reinstal very often. (Not restore from backup)
Gldrush98, you are an absolute STAR! I followed your instructions and now the backlight stays on for 1 minute as per the unlocked settings and 10 secs when it is set to locked.....Perfect many thanks.
No problem man, glad it worked. I had that problem too and I know how absolutely madning that bug can be! I don't know why they didn't fix this bug in the 2.2 roms.
