Hi, having lots of probs with tomtom and my orange SPV M3100.
It just hangs - sometimes on the tomtom menus sometimes whilst driving
pressing the END CALL button to return to home screen then the small tomtom icon in the bottom corner to return into tomtom sorts problem out.
It hangs/freeze/crashes randomly - can be every 10 seconds to 5 minutes.
I have tried a hard reset and reloaded tomtom with no other apps.

tomtom GPS V1.20
I had that problem too. I've used all versions of TTN, hard reset and installed only TTN and nothing fixed it.
Then i've upgraded my ROM and it fixed it.
I'm now using an AKU 3.3 ROM with TTN 6.03.
Cheers
bit of a newbie to all this - where do I download the rom from?
just noticed you have the Herm200 - I think mine is the herm100
will that kill all my orange settings on phone?
Cheers

I'm afraid so and forget about warranty...
I had no operator branding on my device. You should read more about flashing the ROM. It was my first time flashing a ROM. I just got lucky with it.

I did the same upgrade (Except Radio is 1.27), yet I still experience freezes with TT 6.03 sometimes...
I had this problem, I stuck my card into a card reader and ran chkdsk and got a whole lotta errors, I then formatted the card and reinstalled and everything worked and has been working since

Hi, had the same problem here. Tried everything. Eventually installed AKU 3.3 Rom and TomTom 6.03. This works, no more problems!!!
I have SPV M3100 running Tomtom 6.010 (7720) and has same freezing problems.
So, I have been having problems with my PDA lately. It refused to turn on randomly. With other ROMs, it randomly crashed, or rebooted, or I just had blank white or blue screens. Different problems with different ROMs -- but all random. Lately its so bad, it rendered my PDA useless -- now sometimes it doesn't even boot, the blue imate bootscreen gets corrupted...
What's wrong? I'm suspecting RAM problems, which ain't good
Hi KTamas!
Try putting it into bootloader mode and from there, do a complete OS+radio ROM upgrade.
Use the latest 1.15 radio along with the latest official ROM. I would prefer the official O2 ROM. Go to the below link to download the latest O2 rom. For phone number, it will take any number

Best of luck!

Been there, done that. A dozen times. Tried serveral AKU2, AKU3, Crossbow ROMs. Different behaviors on different OSes, but all unstable one way or another (well, one time, one AKU2 was mostly stable... well, mostly... but when I went to crossbow, then back to AKU2, it got worse).
hmm..indeed a problem unheard of.
Have you tried flashing it with AKU1.x rom? They are, i guess, avaliable on imate's FTP

What advantages does 1.15.00 have over 1.14.10? I'm right on the border of a 3g cell and OCCASIONALLY get a 0 bar 3g signal, so am just after the best radio rom to get a strong clear signal.
Thanks!

Elsewhere on the forum, there is a post which say that the difference between 1.14.1 and 1.15 was minimal and that there should in fact be no differences between the way they operate.
However, that was in the midst of a number of posts which all said how much more reliable 1.15 and that the Uni felt faster with it.

Remember, no ROM is entirely stable but you do sound like you have a hardware fault.

Have you tried a new battery? I was having similar problems and took it to the service centre and they confirmed it was the battery (mine was about 14 months old). All working fine now with a new battery!

My battery is around 9 months old. Anyways, I took my Uni to a private repair center... I hope they'll be able to fix it.
Please let us know what the problem is but I think its a voltage control unit of the mainboard.
i had some issues a couple of months ago.. tried all the roms, drove me mad... turned out to be due to some corrupt sectors on my sd card.. bought a new one and my Uni was rocksteady (well kinda) as ever =]
good luck
Hardware: Dopod 818Pro
ROM: Qtek S200, 2.20.7.34 World Wide English, Date:7/10/06, Radio: 02.47.21, ExtROM:2.20.7.114
Software Installed: E-Sword 3.01 (Bible Software), Mapking 2007, Select-Radio, MobiPocket
How's the problem happened:
After Hard Reset, simply install above software, and start the 10 hrs test by launching E-Sword, Mapking and Select Radio, keep the radio playing, by sharing Internet connection through USB to PC.
10 hrs later, or around, you will possibly find either,
a. some icons "white out", not able to run by clicking on them, if you do click, they will give you a program is not certificated, or something like that being mentioned at other threads.
b. Today Screen lost some lines.
c. System may hang later.
IMHO,
1. It looks rather like the GDI resource running out in win98 system.
2. The originally seemed random error now can be repeated by above procedure, time related, always around 10 hrs.
3. Not to specific software, any above software can cause the same problem, just choose SelectRadio as example, since it also test the network connection.
Anybody experience the same problem and any suggestion? It's not a big one, however, annoying when you need to keep running something.
It would be very grateful if somebody can offer me a suggestion on the cause or how to debug it.
J install this rom
J Have problem with:
Today Screen lost icon
Keyboard don't work etc...
The best rom WM5 for Prophet is : JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021 ( ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship.zip )

Bro, with all my grateful heart, i would like to ask you for one favor. Could you pls be more specific on your PDA phone hardware (Dopod, or Qtek) and how long after your phone on did that happen? A clean installation?
I had pinned down the problem to my Home Screen Plugin from HTC, due to possible memory leak or heap corruption.
Now i upgrade to Korand's WM6 ROM without problem.
May still want to know the cause of problem to avoid it in the future.
Anyway, i will still download your suggested ROM for dissection...to see the difference. Thanks.
Since german firmware version 1.66 my device sometimes stops working while not in use . Only solution then is to soft reset via the button near the battery . I have no tweaks in use.
Anyone else has that problem???
I´m curious since I hadn´t have the problem with 1.48.
no problems here.
flashed 1.66 on 02.02. and no lockup till now. have installed some minor things after flash, softreset once, still running without issues (4th day without reset). on 1.48 i had to sr every day cause of the "sms issue"...

Are you sure ??
I had the same issue til i knodest that i had 2 cabs installed, screen sensitive and vibration cab, now is ok here
i've also a german device - but unbranded. 1.66 firmware runs very good.
maybe you should try to make a hardreset.
good luck
Same here. I've not at all any problems with 1.66 in German. The device runs totally flawless and it seems as if all bugs are gone... In my opinion the device became with 1.66 what it should have been right at the beginning when HTC started to sell it for ~€600,-
I'm kind of heavy-user - I use my HD2 every day more than 3 hours, have installed quite a lot of apps (~30 at least) - have never encountered any problem or freeze. Do a hardreset and keep in mind what you install to your phone - 1.66 itself definitely is not responsible for your issue...

Thank you very much for your suggestions.
I will try a hard reset
there still seems to be a major issue
when you watch the discussion on the subject in handy-faq.de.
I personally do have some trouble with this too.
Did anyone investigate where this could come from?
The device is idle for 1 - 2 hours in the pocket, if you press a button, the button lights are on but no reaction. The only way is take the akku out and reboot.
I am running starbase64 ROM latest version and am getting sick with this.
Any ideas guys?
Well this thing keep frustrating me for a while and now i`m not so sure what about it.
My HD2 hangs when i start any of GPS related software such as IGo 8.3, Amigo or Primo.
Sometimes it takes a half an hour without problem and sometime it`s just hang when i want to create a route.
Screen is just freeze and only way to get it back is to remove battery and put it back again. Sometimes he just reset by itself.
I`ve tried 6-7 diferent version of IGo.
Tried it on several version of Dutty and Energy roms.
i`ve tried with 2 SD cards and tried to format from the phone.
All this i`ve tried with radion 2.15.50.
if you have any suggestion please respond what to do.
one thing i didn`t tried yet is to start navi software from Android but for now i would like to run Win Mo and some igo version.
Regards
I have Duttys V18 and the same ROM as you have. And I have not experienced the problems you described. So either it is a GPS problem (hardware) or a specific iGo configuration problem.
Did you use the same sys.txt for every iGo version?
Can you use Google maps without a problem?
HI,
i`ve tried several different sys.txt version even i take Igo from my friend which is running Primo without problem on his HD2 but in my HD2 have same problems.
Sometime it runs for about 45 mins without problem and sometimes hangs for a 2-3 minutes.
GPS hardware is OK because i`ve test it with some gps utility which comes with NRG roms and it seems OK.
When i start Primo finding satellites lasts maybe 10 -20 seconds which is great.
Have you tried the software on the stock ROM? If it still freezes then you may have a hardware issue, perhaps heat related as navigation is quite an intensive task.
There is two more things to try but i`m close to admit that it`s mainboard failure problem
1. to flash stock rom and try it
2. to flash android nand and to try somekind of Igo navigation for android.
Guys, i have the same issue,my HD2 hangs when i am starting iGO, i changed my Memory card to 16GB class4 in case if theres a prob with memory card, and still the same, i flashed many NAND Roms and had the same result, don`t know how to recognize AGPS hardware fault, i am going nutts, it gets hot when hangs in the bottom section back side down to the battery, in the memory and SIM card section, what to do? do i have to install Win mo or just consult a hardware engineer?, please assist and advise.
No good news!
