Phone - Calender - contacts - Not working - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

I have these odd problems with my hermes. I have tried to find a sollution in the wiki and other places in this forum but I failed.
Hence the new topic...
Yesterday my hermes went banana. When I start it it vibrates and gives me a warm welcome by playing a little melody for me. ... About 5 times..(never did that before)
The more serious problem is that i cant use it. I cannot access the phone part, so i cannot call anyone. I cannot access the calender either. If i Press it it flashes for a second but nothing happens. The same with contacts.
The network symbol has a ! next to it. And under network it says nothing. There is no network.
I cannot sync it either.. the computer says it cant sync.
What can I do? What happened?
thank you

I do not know what to do

Phone application (radio?) not responding!

Hi,
On my XDAII (1.72) I sometimes experience a not responding phone/SMS application or radio stack.
People trying to call me are instantly redirected to the voicemail, and if I try to make eiter a call or send a text message, respectively the phone application is stalling or the SMS 'Send' button stays in the 'pressed' state.
Soft-resetting the phone or toggling the 'turn off radio' function re-establishes the radio.
Does anyone knows of a solution?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated and possibly rewarded with a 6-pack Heineken beer
weird, mines just done the same thing. I sent an sms and nothing. I was then taken to the phone screen and it said something like invalid sim something.
I'm wondering if the sim card is not locked in place. I was fiddling around with mine yesterday and maybe forgot to lock the sim card in place.
Just a thought but maybe worth checking :wink:
what radio version do you have ? I recently have the problem that when people call me, the ringtone goes for about 2 seconds, then restarts, etc.
Meanwhile I can do nothing ( green button don't work) . When the caller hangs up my phone returns to the normal state.
I use radio 1.18. Thinking of downgrading to 1.17 which people say is more stable.

The SIM is firmly locked into place
ah..... :shock:
Hello folks,
I have the same problem now for a week... It's driving me crazy... At
some point in time during the night or the day my Qtek2020 gets weird.
The result is that people trying to call me can't connect but to viocemail,
and I can't receive SMS. The only way I can see that I am having this
problem is that whenever I try to send a SMS I get a message "your SMS
cannot be sent", and if I try to make a call, the phone seems to dial out
normally the first second, but then the DIAL-button (which is color-less)
becomes green again...
Please, if someone knows what's wrong or if someone had the same
problem and solved without having to default the whole thing, please
let me know what is the solution.. It is really annoying, so I now have
to randomly reset my phone throughout the day.
PS: my battery is now on 4% so I have to look for my charger, and
after that I can supply with info about radio-version etc. I am running
WM2003 by the way, and I've had no problems like this before, this
unit has been working fine until now. I guess it's a sw-bug? And I
am also wondering if this problem occurs whenever I pass a place
with low signal.. hmm, it's so annoying..
Thanks for any help!

I've been having problems similar to the OP for 2-3 weeks now (found this thread in a search before posting). It's damned annoying, as it means you can't really trust your phone - am I meant to reset every morning, or more frequently? It seems an intermittent problem, in so far as I've been receiving and making calls as normal, and then you someone asks 'did you get my text?'. Gritting teeth, you call the phone from a landline to find that calls are going straight to voicemail. After a soft reset all missing texts are received immediately, and calls can again be received.
When in this state other PDA functions seem to work as normal. However, I suspect that the power display is "suspended" too. On performing a soft reset after experiencing this problem today, I immediately got "your battery is extremely low", whereas before the reset I recall it was around 50% (vBar image). As others have stated, one clue that not all is well is that sent texts do not get a "Message sent" confirmation.
I've been racking my brains as to what's changed recently on my PDA. For family reasons I've been making a lot more calls than usual, but I also added TomTom Navigator 5 a couple of months ago, and so have started intermittently using BT. But I don't use Sat Nav that frequently, and this problem seems more prevalent.
I'm conscious that I don't have latest and greatest ROM, etc, but am vary about attempting upgrades without strong reasons.
Has anyone seen and solved this issue?
Have you tried cleaning the contacts on the sim card? After a while dust and general wear and tear can mess them up. Also as it's obviously(?) a phone problem it might be beneficial to call your service provider for a new sim card.
That's what I had to do last week. Wish you the best anyway.
It can't have anything to with the sim card as I'm having this problem with a brand new sim card.

Help before I put it through a window XDA2i

6 month old O2 XDA2i only program loaded is TT5
ROM version 1.10.00 WWE
ROM date 12/24/02
Radio version 1.00.00
Protocol version 1337.39
ExtROM version 1.10.124 WWE
Being used in corporate mode 0506 code
Here's the story... needed to use phone to call an ambulance for my fiance (she smashed her collar bone and now has a titanium plate and pins) 10weeks ago.. batt at 12% turned it on and caught the camera button whilst pressing the phone button. screen went all funny - vertical lines. Soft and Hard reset failed!!! had to fully charge before I could initiate a hard reset.
Some time after that the camera disapeared and media player started when camera button pressed. Camera missing from programs. Battery discharged at an alarming rate, you could watch it go flat!!!
Soft reset same problem
Hard reset and started running in corporate mode. All fine.
TT5 installed and it works fine although the it takes ages to find the GPS and sats compared with TT3. Same cables, gps and XDA, It also 'looses' signal where it didn't with TT3 and that is with two setups different cars. Almost as if the set up has gone deaf.
Camera disapeared again and battery going flat.
Hard reset
Camera goes again, this time I track it down to the windows folder and copy/paste the shortcut to programs.
Works for a bit then goes (battery ok now)
repaste it, it goes again
Hard reset all working fine.
worked well for a few weeks then I got a Jabra BT205.
Paired great, worked with TT5 great, calls great.
Then it stopped working with the phone, no TX/RX audio via BT205 just clicking. Tried soft boot, dropped all the pairings, re paired still no good.
Hard reset and its al back fine, headset ok TT5 ok (still deaf)
THEN I find I can recieve text messages, can reply BUT when I go New Text or click on messages it wont open, screen flashes and does nothing. nothing is shown as running in the memory bit. So I cant initiate a text message.
Hard reset and the same problem with texts, but now it will only get 75% of my address book from the back up. try to active sync to get the rest and it says it has done it but hasn't.
Hard reset again, still same problem with texts but gets all the address book from the backup. NOW it will only active sync as a guest.
I cant get it to do a full named sync.
Should I just take it back under warranty??
If you are going to suggest I do updates then great Ill do em BUT please talk me through them, post working links where I can get them. I just want it to work properly. I haven't got the time to continue to mess around with the thing. I need it to work, be reliable in doing what I want of it. Be a phone, be a camera, run TT5, run word and excel. Then it would be nice if I could be like others on here who have got em working. Have a film or some comedy on the SD card for the times when I have a moment to spare, even install some other software and games.
I want to do that but not continue to waste my time with unreliability, resets and the frustration of not being able to use it when a life is at risk!!
Thanks in advance
ARRGGHHH
Thanks for reading...... please help!!!!!
I have it running, address book ok, TT5 OK, programs run OK, BUT can't active sync as it will only come up as guest on my PC and I still can't initiate the messaging part ie MMS or Text.
I would try running it without any additional software. If it still displays this strange behaviour I would definitely return it for a replacement.
sounds like you have a faulty one to me try upgradeing the rom to the current image and for the gprs setting etc for o2 the a cab file somewhere on here that will install the settings for you do the upgrade and see how that goes if it still plays up then send it back
I would download the latest ROM from the O2 site and flash that and see if there is any improvement.

ohhh
Thanks for that. I hope it's going to sort me out. How long have they been on the site?? Im sure I only checked the other day (but the way time's flying for my that could have been 2 months ago!!!)
ohhhh
well I have only soft reset once since the upgrade!!!! but that was when I was trying to switch between text message and readingthe setting to text the otherhalf

VERY weird problem

Hi all
I have a (see subject LOL) since a day or 2.
I was playing a game (bejeweled) on my machine when suddenly the game starting to be slow (it happens sometime if I don't reset my device for a few days and then everything is fine after a soft reset, so I decided to soft reset my device.
After that, it restarted and all then stayed on the windows logo (the one just before windows come up).
I waited and waited and waited, nothing. So I decided to hard reset my baby (it's no problem to me since I had not installed any special progs).
Set up OK, install of carrier options OK, set up of M$ exchange OK but THEN, as I was trying to sync my calendar with my exchange server, it stays hanging at "Synchronizing" (ONLY at the calendar section) and can stay like this forever, and when I soft reset, it hangs again on the windows logo. (for the record, if I ONLY sync my contacts, everything is fine).
I tried everything, by that I mean different RADIO, different versions of WM6 (all of them actually. NOTHING helps.
I KNOW for a fact that it goes wrong at the sync of my calender cause I took the problem from zero (that is hard reset, ISP settings and then sync) so I'm sure of where the problem occurs.
I also check the exchange server to make sure my calendar wasn't "too" full, that's not the case.
The only thing I have NOT tried yet is if it goes OK on WM5.
I NEVER had that problem before, just since 2 or 3 days.
Anyone any Idea??
Thnx
This may have absolutely nothing to do with your problem but - a long time ago I read some posts where folks had problems syncing when items in the calendar had notes attached at the pc end - for some reason these notes became corrupted and huge in size when the attempt was made to sync with device. As I say probably not your problem if you do not attach notes to calendar entries.
mike
thnx mikechannon, but indeed I do not have any notes in my calendar, never had AND I do not sync with my PC, only with exchange.Thnx for the tip anyway.
BTW, I just put another ROM on it now (RUU_HER_CINGULAR_2.06.502.3_1.34.00.10_SPL1.04.exe) witch is a WM5 ROM and I have exactly the same problem. After a sync with the exchange server I'm back on the Windows Mobile Splash screen and it's stays there, so it's NOT a WM version related problem.

I have the same problem, which started today. My XDA Exec seemed to be frozen, so I soft reset, now it's stuck on the Windows Mobile splash screen.
I've got data I need to get from the device, so don't want to hard reset (sounds like that wouldn't help anyway).
Can't think what has caused it.
- I upgraded to Radio 1.15 the other day, but it has been working fine.
- I changed my connection to GSM only, 2 days ago to try and stop the Disconnect problems on 3G/GSM, but that has been working OK.
I've tried removing the battery & SIM but no joy.
I'm running Helmi 1.1, and have been for months.
Can anyone help?
Hi all
In the meand time I had my baby sent back to HTC (BTW, they did NOT look for the SuoerCID what so ever, My guarenty is still intact ;-)), they looked at it and sent it back to me. I don't know what they've done but the problem is still here.
I tried (just to be shure) to sync with my desktop and THAT works fine so I would think it's a server related thing.
However, I deleted a lot of things on the server but the problem remain so now I don't sync with the server.
Today I will install the new Black V2.0 and try it again.
I'll let u guys know.

I had problems getting my tytn to sync with my SBS running exchange 2003 SP2. It was due to SP2 adding HTTP compression which screwed syncing to some mobile devices. Sometimes i would get error 0x8503001A and sometimes it would just lock up! Check out this link for a fix, well, it fixed my problems anyway

May also be worth having a look at http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/activesync/exchange_errors.php for more error code info. I know you dont get an arror code, but something may shed some light for you!
@JamesAub
Thnx m8 for ur reply but I'm using the free mail2web exchange server witch use do be fine until (Iguess) too many people started to use it LOL. Then it stopped working.
I just install Black 2.0 and tried right away, the prob is still here so I'm 99,99% sure that the prob is on the server side.
I'll try to make a new account to see what happens.

I have a support message from mail2web, that there server experienced some delay problems. I changed my mail2web exchange to my work exchange server and all problems dissapeared.
Today I checked the mail2web box again and it seems to be working for now.
Good luck!
Well just to say how gooooooood the Black V2.0 is, I'm able now to reset my device when the exchange server hangs and it does NOT stay on the windows splash anymore. The problem is however still not resolved. I sync slowly the one after the other and I'm able to sync my contacts fully and see them. When it gets to my calender, it is syncked BUT when I want to open my calendar I just get the wheel forever. At least I konw now I can test without having to hard reset.
BLACK EDITION V2.0 ROCKS! THE BEST. you can pass the word ;-)

HELP! Messages not showing...

Hey yesterday i noticed a major issue. I was sending quite a few texts and in turn receiving quite a lot back. However after receiving about the 1st four messages they no longer began show up and my tone didn't go off. The only reason i noticed that something wasn't right is because the screen lit up and when i went to inbox there sure enough was an unread message- even though the screen never displayed a new message!!!
Today I'm still experiencing the problem...along with an obviously related issue. Ocassionally when i click on messaging it simply won't open and i find myself soft resetting the phone or turning it off and back on.
Obviously this is a major problem for me!...Please help me! Everything else is fine!
Oh and sometimes the phone randomly wakes up :/
bump!
i got the EXACT same problem, it is so annoying..
it shows no number of unread messages at the enveloppe on the today screen, however when you go in the message boxes there clearly are some unread messages, both e-mails and text messages..
is there ANY way to fix this? it's so incredibily annoying!
Have any of you tried removing some old messages?
I know I had some trouble with messages opening slow, but when I deleted a bunch of messages (and emptied the "deleted" folder), it worked great.
tried that just now with no luck, works on no other panel either..
I deleted my messages too and also uninstalled xperiatweak as ive heard this can cause problems...i havent yet had a chance to check the progress but as for the messaging tab opening up i dont seem to get that issue anymore *touch wood*. I
have noticed however that i get the occassional overload of device.exe errors and i mean overload...once one pops up about at least another 5 do! Even if i press send report or don't send report...it happens. I end up pressing the panel key :/ There are some definate bugs that need sorting.
Actually still no luck with xperiatweak gone...i got quite a series of device.exe errors and then after they'd gone i went to click on messaging and once again nothing happened...nor would contacts show! i think i may need to hard reset the phone!
megh i'd hate having to do a hardreset, don't want to lose my installed appz and having to install plus configure them again >_<
ive just done a hard reset...which i agree is a pain! But wow i forgot how fast the xperia is...i think im going to keep which apps i install to minimum and only install what i need. Obviously the error has been picked up from somewhere... What apps did you previously install? Maybe we have something in common?
torch button, mplaylist manager, neoFTP, pocket scrobbler, remote touch, skype, total commander, xchange r8, youtube panel, google panel, windows live panel... oh yea and tomtom7..
probably some stuff i left out due to them already being uninstalled.. maybe they left some traces in register i dunno..
pardon my french but f*ck this, i just did a hard reset too, will install the english rom too.. stupid dutch windows mobile.. (i know it's not the languages fault but it's an ugly language )
After hard reset...it has just happened again. I then thought it might be vistahide battery as come to think of it it didnt happen before that...been sending testers after getting rid of vistahide and everythin else ok. But i only have the new panels installed...no other add-ons now! So god knows!
Still experiencing this problem from time to time...very annoying! Hard resetted twice and no luck as such. It really is very annoying as i often miss messages if i don't see the screen wake-up Please...anyone know a solution or have this issue? Thanks
Bump .
Anyone?....
"zoelucker
Oh and sometimes the phone randomly wakes up :/"
noticed it happens whenever my mobile got a full bar 3G receptions... what about you guys?
Yes ive noticed a random wake-up and ive thought 'oh that must be another message with no sound grrr' then i look in messaging and no message...so wasn't that and was jus a random wake-up.
It is really starting to irritate me now and today my alarm didn't sound when it's been fine since i've got it! I wondered if the problem was connected? Do you think the new update (well not officially released yet)...the new rom or whatever would solve the problem? Please any light on this...the messaging one is my main problem because I can just set another alarm clock but for messaging...its what a phone should be able to do. Thanks.
Seems like there are few people who are experiencing this problem.
I have the same problem as you all are. I've tried emptying the message but no luck.
If hardresetting doesnt work, then the problem doesnt related to any kind of software we installed?
yea i hard reset twice so i know it doesnt
Its driving me mad now! Its the only issue i have with it and its a real shame because i love my X1 otherwise. Do you think the new FW will solve my problem?
I was receiving messages fine 20 mins ago and then 5 mins ago i got a random screen wake-up but thought it was a message that hadn't come through properly so i tried to go into messaging but it wouldn't open up....i tried everything. clicked it so many times. changed panels. nothing. in the end i had to soft reset the phone :S

Problem with microphone????

Hi!
I have tried to find the answer, but unfortunatelly there is no one.
I have a problem with my HD. The problem is that microphone stops working during the call. I can hear other person, but they cannot hear me. It happens randomly, after a random time of duration of a call.
It was repaired (mainboard was replaced), and everything was working fine for 2 weeks.
And the same **** happend again. So I got back to the workshop and they performed "standard fabric procedure", did hard reset (again) and told me that it is ok. Naturally it wasn't, and that fact I met next day . Now they are going to replace mainboard again.
What is going on?
Have you got such bed experience?
MJ
Are you sure you don't just accidentaly hit the "send" key while holding the phone ?
Just my two silly cents...
Hmmm annoying problem #1 in many LG KS20s including mine. Fortunately it was fixed after 3rd or 4th rom release. It was software-based problem, hope this one is too and gets solved soon
Mysterd, I checked it many times. Screen was always blocked.
I even changed my sim card.
Service had changed mainboard second time but the bug get back again.
Now I have found out, that it can be the issue connected with synchronisation with exchange server. But I will check it when phone will back to me from 4th visit in service...
Hi,
And this is the issue. I checked it many times. My voice disapear just when synchronisation with Exchange server starts (each 15 minutes), and when there are any data to download. What more, I found that others cannot call me when I'm surfing the Internet on my phone!!! They are redirected as if I would be inaccessible.
How can it be???? I never happend with iPhone. I also checked it with iPhone. There is everything ok.
And one thing more... I tried with other WM phone (Asus P750), and there is the same. No one can call me while I was surfing in the Internet, but synchronization didn't start during the call.
Can You help me???? Pls.
Regards
Marcin
