bad phone in XDA2
Hi Jamiesteo
I had my XDA2 for almost 5 months and the phone facility is terrible, you will come across many more irritating faults and the best way to dial with it is just getting use to it (if u can) and hopping that developers will solve this finishing touches to an end
Hi guys!
I can't tell you if this is XDA related or not, looks like this is not so
"general".
Have you checked your phone is NOT in silent mode? Even if the phone aplet is not "on top", you should hear the beep and it should vibrate (If you have configured so)
Also DON'T close the phone aplet from the memory settings (running programs).
I agree however that the XDAII weak part is everything surrounding the "phone" part of the device. Microsoft is to shame here, but after having used a Sony P800 for months, I should admit that the XDAII is "at least" a decent" PDA, which the P800 is NOT AT ALL.
My phone "wish list" is so large, that it should be Micro$oft initiative to poll users about how to improuve this. Bluetooth being the first thing to fix!
:evil:
My XDA II does the same, i get people telling me it was ringng but it doesnt ring at my end, never found a fix for it but it is very annoying
phone software probs
have they ever updated the phone program? I mean I had an XDA before my XDA 2 and had this prob. Also found it annoying with the minimize rather than close of programs so downloaded various solutions for this only to find they had problems with the phone program not being able to close when vbar or such like was running.
Spoke to UK XDA warranty peeps and they said havent heard of probs with phone program so either we are dreaming of probs or no one else telling them phone program has bugs.
Hello get with the program you xda developers this is the way forward and fix that camera its shocking in anything but perfect light.
All these problems are caused by 3rd party software installed by YOU! I'm 100% sure, that after hard reset without installing any other software, your phone will work great.
You can then try to install your software and find out which is causing your problems. There is so many crap in software for Pocket PC.

Must admit I tend to agree. I have been using my XDA II since released in Malaysia some months back and have not encountered any of the problems you guys a relisting. Only time I do encounter any sort of problem it is because of a conflict with a 3rd party application.
Ed
Tend to agree here as well - with one additional comment. Some problems just don't come from the device but from the mobile service provider. Their backend computer susyems are just crap and sometimes give me a free signal and no ring tone on the other end...
Again, I have posted a few times about the phone service.
1. SMS messages from subscribed services, but with names of my friends as the sender. Very odd. And Yes, I have put the names in right.
2. SMS messages sent to my friends end up at completely different recipients in my address list.
3. Photos of my friends appear randomly when unknown callers ring me.
The errors seem to be occurring at the exchange, as the message and number are correct when I send them. They better sort this out soon, the relationship with my girlfriend is hanging by a wire after my flirting SMS(s) went to her instead of a girl in the office. How I laughed...for about 10 seconds!!
whats the crack?
if i ring my vario now, when its in standby, on the phone im using to call it, it conects and rings 3 times before the vario jumps into life and allerts me, giving me about 5 -10secs to answer b4 it diverts to voicemail?
its only recently started to do this??
mines done that from the start...doesnt really bother me, as i dont get many calls
i think i read on hear some one had found the registry settings to keep it 'powered up' in standby mode so it would ring immediatley, however the battery life sucked...
its causing me to miss alot of calls, really need to sort it
are your ring tones on your sd card? I read that that might be the problem.
yep they are, hmm will transfer it to the phone and see if that helps
after a few decades searching:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=42674
my ring tone was on the phone not the card
cheers minty, i had searched but couldnt find anything usefull, will give that a try , looks promising
yeah...the search function is a pig!
good luck, like i said...your battery life may change
ring dam loud but still about 15/20 seconds before the phone makes a noise, it switch on after about 10second then rings 10 later!
still aint sorted it?
miss call constantly due to this the phone rings for 30 seconds, but starts to ring 20 seconds after the person calling gets the ringing tone?
Hi Fil,
Do you have PocketZenPhone or a similar profile app installed?

no pocket zen install, tho i dont know what that or similar is!
is that something i need? or something thats causing the problem?
Using Molski's 2.26 rom my Qtek 9100 rings with no delay at all, witout any modification. So if you don't mind flashing your Wizard, give it a try!
Hi,
Not something you need to solve the problem, just that some of these profile switching apps can cause a delay in the phone rinnging.
By profile application I mean a program that allows you to have several different settings and switch between them to change volume, ringtone, set to vibrate etc...
Thanks.
may try a new rom then, as the phones filled with crap anyways, could do with a clean out :lol:

It's a standard thing regarding PPC's, though as has been said before you can change the registry, but battery will suffer (SLIGHTLY)
If you don't want to, you can download Tweaks2k2, which has a fix to stop the 3sec delay, from www.tweaks2k2.com. There you will get a trial version which works for three goes...
Only takes one go to tick the box and restart your PPC though, and problem fixed.
Best Regards
NICE ONE and just like that its sorted
looks like that tweaks is a good tool! and at $10.85 or £5.72 ish worthy of a purchace 8)

Very worthy, it's always being updated, and has some great features
hi everyone.
i've search around the forum, but havent found the solution yet.
i'll try to explain my problem clearly now. when i make a call, the other person cannot hear my voice, or it's way to soft to be heard.i can hear the caller clearly though. The signal is okay, so thats not the problem. To figure out whether the problem is due to the hardware(microphone) or the software, i plugged in the headset, and the other party can hear it clearly. so i thought the hardware might be the culprit here.
i did a second test, i try to record my voice using the note application, and my voice was recorded excellently. so, right now i think the real problem has something to do with the software, NOT the hardware.
as i said, i've search the forum, and here some of the solution that i tried but didnt work.
1. HKLM\Software\HTC\AUDIOGAIN(x)\RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME = CC
and HKLM\Software\HTC\AUDIOGAIN(x)\EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME = CC
2. hard reset
3. try various rom
4. hkcu\controlpanel'soundcategories\incall\initvol = 0 or 6 (both didnt work)
5. set the call volume highest (still sound very weak)
FYI, i didnt use bluetooth stack or bluetooth headset. please, does anyone have solution for this. i cannot afford to use my headset all the time.
any help would be much appreciated
so, no one willing to help? hmm..this forum is not as helpful as it was before year ago when i first joined it. thank you anyway

You've GOT to be kidding. No responses in 6 whole hours?!? I can't believe the total lack of help around here. Just like every other forum, you need to wait at least 24 hours before you bump your post.

as u can see, by the next 24 hours, this thread will go into archive, and DEAD. the same thing happen to my previous 'asking-for-help' thread. maybe some of the guys think this is just a stupid thread create by a lazy-to-search noobie. whatever. or maybe magician people is more helpful than wizard's.hmm we'll see how it goes
I am having to same problem and would like to resolve it.
Me three.
I have a BT Headset that isn't stereo and does not support A2DP - and it never had this problem. Audiogain does NOT work on devices not manufactured by HTC.
I have also experienced this problem, its hard to tell but i think the problem started after installing voice command, ihave since had the phone restored to default rom and it was fine during this period, i now have new rom with vioce command built in and problem has come back..try uninstalling VC if you can or use a rom without it on.
Whenever I'm on a call I can't take notes because the the buttons that have numbers on them only do numbers during a call, no matter what application I am in. I've tried it with numlock on and I still can't type letters. Does anyone know a way around this? I'm using a black rom, does it do this on the official one? I would really like to be able to take notes during a call.
Noticed this on WM6
Which version of WM are you using? The keyboard on my Cingular 8525 with WM5 functioned normally, even during a phone calls. But the problem you described surfaced when I upgraded my 8525 to the leaked WM6 ROM on this website.
I'm hoping that when AT&T releases their official 8525 WM6 ROM upgrade that this problem is corrected.
I'm using Black Satin
I've got the same deal going on here with my WM6 Cingular USA official version...reg edit in the works?
Hey just to confirm on this issue, I have the exact same problem with when I recently upgraded to WM5 to Schaps_WM6Pro_WWE_3.57a_Full.
I also hope there is a fix for it, cause WM6 looks pretty good. Unfortunately I probably won't see WM6 from Rogers any time soon.
got the same problem with my softbank X01HTC w/ WM6.
Don't have this problem with Imate Jasjam using WM6 Black 2.5 rom
same problem here ... can anyone point me in the right direction? How about a reg dump from a working ROM? I'll do the diff if someone provides the data
There are a number of threads on this topic already. No one has yet to find a solution and some of the brightest minds are working on it. I am not one of those minds, however, I compared the registry dumps from during a call and not during a call and saw nothing that would make a difference. I would suggest "subscribing" to this thread (and the other ones to be safe) so that when someone posts an answer you will get an email. Unfourtunatly, you will also get an email when someone post "Me Too!", or even when someone is just being grumpy about the "Me Too"s.
Me too!
T-Mo 3.60 ROM has the same issue on my 8525... anyone find differently?
This has been the standard since Windows Mobile 2003. so people have been complaining about this since the Blue Angel days. The phone application that comes with WM takes control of the keyboard when there is an active call.
Using a different phone application is likely the only fix. Since most of you hate the phone application that comes with Windows, this shouldn't be heartcrushing for too many people. Which phone applications don't force this behavior? I have no idea, but I'm sure someone can let us know.
Of course, you can still use the onscreen keyboard when on a call which doesn't have this issue. I know this is painful for those of you who are morally opposed to using the stylus, though. To me, having the keyboard extended while on a call is awkward at best.
I'm not sure why this became such an active issue all of a sudden when the problem (or feature) has been around ever since the very first WM phone with a keyboard on it first appeared, although I think this is a nice indication that these devices are finally starting to catch on with new people.
You must be a very slow typer. It's a huge issue. I've ROM'ed my HTC Wizard & Hermes many times and have only had this problem with the WM6 image ... while i'm with you on it not being specific to the image or WM6, i don't agree that it's not important.
If you're saying a new phone app will fix it, i'm all about it but don't downplay the issue because it doesn't bother you.

It is a huge issue because with WM5 on my 8125 and on my 8525 this was NOT a problem. The letters worked as they were supposed to even during a call. It only began when I switched to to WM6. So WM6 broke something.
I didn't say this is a non-issue. But what I am saying is that this problem has been around for years.
It's possible that something from WM2003 was changed in WM2005, but made its way back into WM2006. I don't recall the problem on WM2005 on the Hermes, but I do recall it from earlier phones. But I also wasn't looking for the problem, either, and I don't generally text or do other typing when on phone calls.
Right on, has anyone found any more information about this problem?
Best I can tell it came in with all of the latest WM6 builds. Anything I've tried that's been labeled "official" or that is based on same has had the issue. I can say with certainty AT&T's WM5 didn't, nor did vp3G 2.0 (which was based on a pre-"official" build).
Beyond that, no clue.
eventually it'll get fixed.. what im really having issues now is overeating.. last night i had my phone plugged into the wall and was talking via bluetooth for about an hour and a half and my phone was extremely hot and had stopped charging.. i wish there was a fix for that and really am hoping i didn't buy a lemon 8525

Well, with the official TyTN ROMs having been released that way I'm beginning to have my doubts.
Does this work with the official AT&T WM6 rom? Anyone? Bueller?
Hi there,
I've recently had someone ask me how to resolve the following issues on the Touch HD.
End key, when set to lock the handset, isn't.
Ringtone ending too quickly, so the ringtone stops ringing, but the caller still hears ringing and the call can be answered (this is also happening on my HTC Hermes).
The other thing is, where the handset is shutting off overnight, meaning the person who owns the phone misses the alarms which were set, due to it being off.
Is there anything I can say to this person to sort these problems?
Thank you,
I think more people are inclined to answer you if you put a topic of note on your post.
"Some" doesn't really cut it does it.
As for your issues...perhaps the ring tone is set to only play once in the settings which is why it's stopping.
As for the lock...did you have S2U2 on at some point?
Remember the topic thing for next time please!!! I hate those sort of topics
Firstly, the topic is a minor issue, since I had already typed it, and it hasn't fully shown.
I'll edit it to reflect what it should've been, I'm not the typical n00b user of forums, and I do try to be fairly to the point.
Secondly, which part of "I've recently had someone ask me" do you not comprehend?
This is NOT my phone, therefore I do not know what has been done, and what hasn't been done.
The original user is someone who contacted me recently, and I'm trying to find the best way to resolve these issues.
As for the ringtone, I know on my phone its set to be continuous. Only by pure luck somehow I managed to answer my phone after its first beep this morning, half asleep, but it had beeped once from my ringtone and stopped ringing on my end.
If you can explain S2U2, that would be handy.
Thank you,
Upon reflection, do you agree it might be prudent in future to ascertain what steps have already been taken to rectify said "problem" before posting?
As for S2U2 - it's an application (there are others like it) that locks the screen of the phone - I have seen applications like this disable the default locking mechanism upon uninstallation. That was the reason for me asking - perhaps you could get your friend to check that?

I'm quite sure he understood what "I've recently had someone ask me" means - but you can't really expect us to help you in any way if you can't answer any follow-up questions! It's pure guessing this way!

S2U2 is a locking app available here: http://s2u2.ac-s2.com/
I've used it myself for a while and never had any issues. But I guess Wiggz is hinting at problems that might arise after uninstalling S2U2 (I hard-reset my device instead of uninstalling - so I have no idea) since S2U2 sorta does the same job as the standard locking using the end-key.
A hard-reset would probably fix all three issues - but I guess that isn't really an option if your friend asked you for help... :/
I'll have a look into the S2U2, and get this person to try it.
Since the handset has only recently been delivered from replacement, I can't see how a Hard Reset will work, but always worth a try.
What would you recommend with the custom ringtone issue? It happens on my hermes also, so not sure what would be causing this.

Are you sure the ringtone is of sufficient length to match the ring/pickup pattern - i.e. 30 second ringtone for 30 seconds before voicemail?
I had this problem with my alarm when I first used it.
