Has anyone had this happen?
Syncing with my Vista computer using BT. I dont (forget to really) turn off BT on my HTC 7501 and if I turn off the computer and say don't look at my HTC 7501 device for some time, around .5 - 8 hours, then try to turn it on the device wont come on. I can see the Blue Tooth light lit on the HTC 7501. Gotta do a reset to get the 7501 to come on.
It seems the BT freezes or is 'searching' or something. Anyone know what this is?
I had bought an HTC 7501 begining of July and this happened so much it pissed me off, so I returned it after 5 days (after attemting to take it apart also . Failed misearably because did not want to damage the device.
Here it is 15 August and I love the device so got another one and its nice because it has all the updated FW, no more "test device" stuff on boot up.
To give some more Troubleshooting tips. I had an ATT 8525 for 3 days end of June that did the exact same thing. Returned it because of this and the stylus holder broke.
One thing I am going to do is remove Vista on my computer and put XP on and see if it still does it, but anyone have an more experience with this?

I also use Vista and generaly do not have any problems with syncing both with USB cable and bluetooth.
But sometimes Vista for some reason refuses to recognize my X7500 as registered device and then happens, what you have described (no matter whether on Bluetooth or USB). However it is Vista (the same happens sometimes in my other comp with WinXP), not my X7500, to be blamed. In such case I have to restart Vista and everything comes to normal state.
The bad part is my computer is off and I am usually in bed or just getting up in the morning 8 hours later to find my device wont turn on. Also cant get calls in on my 7501 device when this happens because cant get the unit to turn on, which is very bad for business.
In reallity I gotta remember to turn of my 7501 bluetooth before turning the 7501 off.
But again this was happening with my ATT 8525 WM5 device also.
So, it is BT and ?Windows? related?

It is windows not BT.
I usualy do not switch of BT in my X7500 at all. I use Jabra as headset. I also use ny X7500 as internet access point while of the office, so the BT is almost always ON. I just switch X7500 off or let it switch off automaticaly. Itconsumes no more then 5% to 10% of battery during the night. Of course I have to charge it every day or sometimes twice a day if I use it hardly.

This has been happening on two diffrent PCs and with diffrent handsets (Both with the XDA min, and now, the Universal).
Once in 5, I plug in the universal, and WHACK!, blue screen? Pc has crashed?
I have noticed that this tends to happen when the Universal is low on power, has anybody else experinced these?
It happens to me sometimes. Generally, its with my laptop it hibernates when inactive. When I boot it back up (with my XDA plugged in) I get the blue screen of death :?
No idea why!
I have two Win XPs on my comp. In one of them (very old installation) JasJar works just great, I can sync it without any problem while in the other one it just brings BSOD immediately upon USB cable is plugged in it (well as soon as it installs the driver) so in that Win (my primary) I use Btooth connection to sync, only.
I have no idea why is that and I am planning to reinstall XP ASAP... or someone clever will indicate what is going on and save me a lot of time and trouble.
The only way to avoid this so far
is to only plug in a well charged Universal. This is some sort of power surge bug...
It happened to me also, especially when I ran live update of norton antivirus. Sinece I unistalled norton, it doesn't happen anymore.
I had my JJ for 10 Days. Tuesday i woke up with the Speaker above the screen NOT Working (when in PDA mode). It works when i twist the screen and make it in a Laptop mode.
Actually if i twist it half way between the PDA and laptop modes it works.
Now, i am thinking this could be a connecter issue, right? It can't be a software issue!! can it? I hardrest, and softrest.
it was working fine when i went to bed Monday night, Never dropped it nor hit it hard anywhere.
The funny thing is every time i bought an I-mate PDA starting with the JAM, WIZ, and now the JJ, I have always had problems with the Speakers.... Nothing else. Maybe it is just my Luck.
Any ideas?
Ok, I will try to make my probmen more clear...
I bought my Prophet (QTEK S200) in March and everything has been working fine (also bluetooth) till few weeks ago when, all of a sudden, my prophet start taking more than 4 minutes to boot. I try removing some hacks or uninstalling soem programs, but nothing. After few weeks I realise that actually also BT is not working: in comm manag, there should be an X on the BT button when turned off, but I see none; instead the BT icon is green but the blu led is not blinking. I try clicking on he BT button several times, but nothing changes: still the icon is green, no X and no blue led. I try also with SETTINGS > BLUETOOTH > MODE tab: I check the "Turn on BT" box and press ok, but nothing, because when go back to the tab the box is not checked anymore.
Yesterday I uninstalled an old version of Skype and installed the nw one, turned on my WIFI and chatted for a while: all ok. Then I open PIE and browse some sites and all of a sudden the prophet freezes. I soft reset (with the stylus) and guess what: the prophet takes less than 2 minutes to boot. I try to soft reset few more times: same fast boot. So I go and check the BT: it works properly now!!!!!
An finally I plug the USB cable to sync the prophet with Active Sync 4.2: sync is done. Then I soft reset again and guess what?!?!?! 5 minutes to boot and no BT working!!! SGRUNT!!!!!
Ok, I say, time for a hard reset: I press the two buttons on the left side and I use the stylus, press green button at prompt and hard reset starts. Guess what? The prophet takes 5 minutes to reach he windows logo and the first time wizard. I try 3 more times, same result. And when the prophet is up and running (after restore of original settings) BT is still not working...
I do not know what to think. To me it looks that the BT problem and the long boot are related. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Try the Hardreset. If the device will work well after that - it is just software problem. If no - sorry...
As i said, I tried hard reser, and still not working

any one can help !!! please
Hi there,
i'm also having lot of troubles with my Prophet.
My opinion, but not sure as many other are using it successfully, it that it comes from the A2DP patch.
It started by the phone feature. I can't use it without using the Bluetooth headset (without headset, i have only noise in the speaker, also in the headphone plugged on the bottom). Then it started with Bluetooth that woudln't turn on. So no way to make calls anymore (shame for a phone...). And from this evening, i see issues also with WLAN!!! I can't turn it on.
Hard reset, flashing a new ROM, Radio ROM doesn't change anything.
I am desperated, i now need to flash it back to German O2 ROM and give it to repair to O2. Hoping they will not see it has been flashed with other ROM.
btw: could someone taking German <please> find me an adress for an O2 shop near Aachen? I can't find by myself on the O2 web pages. Many thanks in advance.
NO BT!!!
thegios, I exactly have the same problem, did you find a solution to your problem? NO BT, 5 minutes boot up time!!!

telephone replaced... (under warranty luckly...)
it looks like the broken bluetooth affects somehow the boot procedure
Oh no... I have this exact same issue... so it must be the ad2p hack... did we all have this? My phone take 5 minutes to boot and no BT too.... exactly the same!!! check my threads~~!
I did no ad2p hack
m... so the dealer wasn't able to repair it? i already have a mother board replacement... i don't want another one...
repair? do u think that for them it's cheaper to repair than to replace?
the dealer we have here seems to beleive so... they refuse to give replacements. and all they do is provide shotty repairs so you have to keep going back. its frustrating. This phone has caused me a lot of headaches.
I bought it in a big mall, so what the shop did is to package it and send it to the dealer and in 8 days i got back my same phone with simply the WHOLE motherboard replaced, which means new rom, new mac address, new everything
only front and back cover are the same
maybe.... cos I found a tape to cover infrared, so maybe they kept nly front cover, since also the power button feels different (not it is harder to push it)
loki bluetooth problem

myself too !!!!!
i have done all you said but same problems
i noticed that when you got windows mobile screen if you dont see the blue light
you can anyway reboot cause you wont got bluetooth at the end of the boot
when i associate a bluetooth gps, it s sucks...
anyway i m in the same s**** .
i think it's a hardware problem....
waitin for any another experiment to solve this f*** problem...
its a hardware... I installed a new rom and bluetooth worked until it was reboot... and also it would stop working when i left the phone alone for a few hours... MB had to be replaced...
my prophet also needs more than 4 minutes to boot. but my bluetooth is working and i don't see any other error. what can i do?
Was working fine this morning, alarm went off etc and checked my mail. Put it into my pocket to read on the bus, got it out and it wouldn't come out of sleep mode. So tried reset with the stylus, no luck, so then pulled the battery and powered on.
All I get now is the green light coming on and staying on and that's it nothing else. I've got Hard-SPL the last released version and Shamanix Ultimate rom which has been fine for the last few months. And yer now this.
I've tried removing the sim card, the storage card and plugging it into windows. It detects something, brings up a network device but then I get nothing after that. I've tried using RUUWrapper to flash another OS rom but it still won't go. (This only happened once)
*Update* Somehow after plugging the usb cable in and holding power and the ok button to get the tri colour screen (even though its staying black) it managed to attempt to flash a new image to my phone. It said it was successful but its still not booting. I'm going to try and reflash the radio and hard spl but any other ideas? I tried looking for mtty to go through that way but no luck.
i had the same problem like you any help oli, pof or any one who could help to come back our hermes??
you sure its even a software problem? it seem to me like a hardware problem, like ur lcd screen is dead or something. i would try a remote control app like mymobiler and see if there's anything there first

Could be a hardware issue but I don't think its the LCD. The lights to indicate bluetooth aren't flashing which I had on by default. Its also not even flashing the green light at this point. It sorta powers on but thats it.
*Update*
After a bit of time the light did start flashing green but no bluetooth. The red and green phone buttons also turned on (Dopod 838 Pro). Its also now appearing to charge off the USB. But still no link in windows. I can ring the phone but nothing happens, it rings in the phone im using but the mobile itself does not.
well in my case my device if i plug it in the charger it charges but no led indication if i turn on the device only the green led turns on but it stays no start of splash etc etc etc only i can put it in bootmode if i flash it dont makes nothing
Well I dropped the phone into the service centre. It is 11 days (taking into account the leap year) outside of warranty. I'm kinda annoyed because the tech there said 3 would normally replace/repair under warranty at 10 days out of warranty.
Either way i've got a quote of $140, they claim its the screen but didnt have a screen in stock to test so i'm waiting for that. Three may still cover it under warranty because its so close to the warranty period and well i've had a few billing issues with them before where they were at fault. Namely the charged my credit card which they had been for over 6 months with no issues and then claimed I had not paid them. It took two weeks and multiple complaints before they accepted my bank statement showing them it was paid.
Still waiting now at almost a week and a half but hopefully its just the screen and they will fix it for me. They were hesitant to but I believe they will cover all of it, at first only offered 50% of the cost which is a bit of a kick in the teeth when its so close to warranty and under statutory warranty it should be covered.
Will keep this updated.
so has anyone figured out a reason/solution to this issue?
Unfortunately no
Once three got the parts in and tested them in my unit they were still unable to get it to boot nor get into some kind of special boot diagnostic mode they use so it was declared a complete board failure and deemed uneconomical to repair.
As it was so close to warranty they are now trying to sort out what they can do, possibly a loyalty upgrade or something similar. I've given them ideas of what phone I would like to get and hopefully they can accommodate me else I will look at chasing the statutory warranty angle.
Hi,
This might be a newbie issue but my HD2 was working well up until few days ago when I noticed that everytime I make a call instead of ringing normally it does it in speaker (hands free) mode what caught my attention since I didn't change any settings.
I'm inclined to think that it might be due to some corruption in the software since I didn't find any optios to revert this so I was thinking on doing a hard reset but...
The other issue I have is that I tried to connect it to two different computers (that it used to connect without problems) and it does not do it.
It does charge on the USB but neither PC's recognize that the phone is connected.
I tried 2 different cables on the 2 PC's without luck.
So again I'm now more convinced that it is a software problem.
Any idea how should I proceed so I don't loose any data????
Thanks,
Look up "stuck in car kit mode" see if it's the same symptoms.
I look into it thanks...
I looked it up,but is not exactly the same.
It's stuck on loud speaker yes but not in landscape mode, if I rotate the phone the screen works ok.
It also goes to sleep so they are not exactly the same
It just does not get recognized by the pc when I plug it on the USB.
I just get the charging light and the little plug simbol on top as you get when you plug to external power but the computers don't make the sound (or any sign of recognition) that normally comes when you plug any USB device to it.
Unless this is just the start of it...
Well, after reading all 12 (or so) pages on that thread and cleaning the heck of the micro usb, wigling the cable in every direction this morning I managed to connect the phone to the PC and get rid of the loud speaker, so even if the symptoms are not exactly the same looks like it heading in that direction.
Bummer...
I guess it's time to start looking for a new phone.
