Im currently using the imate rom 2.16.9.1.wwe Rom date 2/6/06 extrom version 0 2.16.9.101
It has been working fine for the past few weeks and the performane increase has been much better. I was also using the oush mail which also worked well. Then a few days ago I started to have a few problems with the phone, basically it would look as if it was working the lights flashing, however when I went to turn it on it wouldn’t turn on. The only way to resolve this si to soft reset the handset. This problem is now occuring on average 2 times a day! I havent even installed any new software!! Thwe only major incident before this started happening was I used skype twice! But havent used it since! I have also stopped push mail cause I thought this maybe the issue but it didn’t solve it!
Its so annoying cause I think the device is operating normally cause I see the flashing lights however it cant do anything cause it has frozen!
Any ideas???
I was thinking of going for a hard reset but if I restore my backup ive taken with spb will this not just reintroduce the problem?
just to add for further info i have no apps running and the
program memory is total - 44.01mb
in use 19.67mb and Free 24.34
thats after a soft reboot!!
This might be a really silly suggestion, so appologies if it is, but could it be just the backlight turned off for some reason so it looks like the device is off when it is actually on?
No, I don't think that it is the backlight as I am also now experiencing this same problem ... approx 1 - 2 time daily. You think that the phone is functioning until you try to use it. Only option is soft reset.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
no at present a soft reset is the only cure and even then it may occur again later on! Bluey HK are you using the same rom as me??? the imate one?
its done it twice already today and its only midday! the last time i was just browsing the web, closed the browser, then switched it off and then couldnt turn it back on! Do you think it may be a memory leakage issue????
This happened to me yesterday on my T-Mobile MDA. I am running the latest T-Mobile_RUU_Wizard_2210401_221_20710_ENG_US image from xelencin.
What appears to have triggered the problem for me was attempting to connect to T-Mobile's My Email app to download mailbox settings while the signal level is too low or intermittent (Wi-fi and Bluetooth were disabled).
The backlight would not turn on and I could observe the My Email app trying to access the server.
it sounds as though it may be a bug connected with a GPRS connection???
ahh its done it again, this time i wasnt doing anything just died! I think i am gonnna have to do a hard reset cause this is making the phone unuseable!
if i do a hard reset and then install a back up is there a high possibility that this will reintroduce the bug???
its not the backlight
my 8125 is having the same damn problem. its nto a backlight issue, as it just stalls, and the past 4 times its done it, i've just removed the battery and turned it back on as a soft reset wont work, and i can't it to react to any commands. this is either a software issue all our phones are dying. i was having this problem with summitter's previous 2.17 rom, then updated to the recent 2.17.11 aku 2.2 rom... thinking the upgraded rom is what it needed...NOPE... still crashed. almost all instances i believe are when the wifi connection was active. but i could be making that up, i'm positive on 3 occasions it was with a wifi connection active. but not too sure about the 4th.
this is making me insane, and we need to figure out whats up~!
to expound on the problem:
one time i was in the middle of checking voicemail, then tried to delete, but the screen wouldn't light up, and it wasn't responding to my option 7 to delete command. the other time was in the middle of a phone call. something's up....
i am having the same issue with my 9100, its running the latest offical rom, mine does it whenever it feels i dont believe it is wifi or gprs related as i have the problem at time when i have been using neither.
there does not appear to be a link to any software i am using either
any ideas?.
yea- i get the same sometimes, i go to take my phone out of standby and it wont do anything, the power button doesnt work- the light just flashes. sometimes it freezes on the today screen, the power button dont work or anything. really need to sort this!
any ideas? any1 else get this? its where u put ur MDA in standby, and next time u press power button 2 turn on nufin happens, but the leds still flash at the top!
yep i still get the problem! still no cure!
I have exactly the same problem... I just pick up my device from my pocket to use it, I press on the power button once but the device won't wake up from the standby mode. I wish someone can give us a cure.
Low Battery...
I had this happen to me once recently...for me it was becuase my battery was too low. Freaked me out, because everything looked good, but I would power on and get nothing! Right after it started it powered on for a sec then quit. I had to put it on the charger and leave it for a couple hours to get a good solid charge, then everything was fine. Hope this helps....
thanks for the response, unfortunately mine is definately not related to the battery charge!
mine hasnt done it in the last day, ive been leaving it a while before putting it into standby. i used to exit my app (messaging or whatever) and shut it off straightaway, but i give it a sec or 2 to make sure its all good
and its doin ok so far!
In the past couple of days, there has been three occasions when the PPC (Orange m700) would not resume from standby by pressing the on/off button.
It was still on, but not responsive at all and required a soft reset. It would not wake up with a regular pre-set alarm, and nor with a phone call either - calls sent straight to answerphone.
I uninstalled some software after the first ocasion, as I though that may be the problem, but apparently not.
I can't find any other forum posts on this probelm either
Hmm, I'm having the same problem since upgrading my P3600 to the latest official HTC ROM. Unit appears to be in standby but cannot be woken using the power button. Haven't tried calling it in this state to see if a call will wake it.
No idea what could be causing it, soft reset seems to fix the problem.
Anyone else with this problem?
before i have same problem like both off u, did u install u'r device with c3 st4r wm5 cr4ck?? because when i have install with that prog my device in black screen i couldn't wake my phone again & tried to call my device but the phone not active, now i'm using the original c3 st4r serial number from dopod for free, my device just work fine
I have recently noticed mine doiing this as well, although if i hold the button down for a while it will eventually wake up. I dont have a crack for core but have a serial posted on the XXXXXXXXXX site- didnt get a serial or the program with my dopod..... can someone help me with a different serial?
Mod edit we do not make WAREZ suggestions on XDA-Developers
It's happened on mine a couple times recently. For the moment, I'm attributing it to running the gmail applet...no theory, just based on practical observation. A friend recently installed opera mini and had the same problem on his device (it's an HP6515). Could it be the midlets?
i dont use midlets, and i have the same problem and worse... some times everything stops working even in standby mode, or when i use it it crashes and i have to wait some time before using it or i have to soft reset after a long period... it is not a software problem because i uninstalled alot of heavy progs, but i think that mini sd might be corupted and the apps using it crashes,(us when i listent o the musing file paths are gone and i have to softreset)
im just trying using the mini sd as hdd in windows through the phone and do a checkdisk and defragment to see if the problem resists.. if it does ill paint blue my trinity and throw it to the see *(greek exprsion).... ime so ungry of those stuck problems, and i think we gave so much money and we cant even recieve phonecalls...its a pain in the a**
This has happened to me on occasion.
I am wondering if you guys check mail (use HDSPA?)... I have a feeling this may be the cause...
happens every now and then, suspect batterystatus plug-in which is not really meant for trinity, but could be some other software...
For the past three days the phone was frozen in the morning.
I have two alarms set to get me up, and there have been a couple of reminders (tasks), so I wonder if these are related to the problem? The alarms never went off!
Also my phone memory is now round about 12mb, so I also wonder if this is an issue?
Also, it has taken me 2 soft resets to get the phone working again after it froze the past 2 times
I have noticed the same issue for a while. In my case at least I think it relates to wifi (and maybe BT). If left on my phone doesnt typically emerge from standyby. If I switch off then I dont seem to have this problem at all. Maybe not just me?
Guys, I suspect you have a software problem. I know it's painful, but you can do a hard reset to the device so that it returns to its clean initial state and test for a few days to see if it's recurring.
Then you'll know if it's a software problem or hardware one. Also, it helps you to explain the situation when you ever need to return it.
Had the same problem. Drove me absolutely nuts. Had phone exchanged 3 times and did numerous hard and soft resets. Virtually no additional software on it. Finally resolved after switching to WM6. Thank god!
i think it's a hardware problem.
I have a trinity now, but I had this problem with my atom exec. it would do exactly that... turn off, not turn back on, power button doesn't work, people think im not answering my phone, alarms don't sound. I tried all the roms, including changing my WWE rom to a CHT rom, didn't work, same problem.
I'm interested in hearing why people think this is software related.
i have the same problem with my p3600 :| sometime it don'r resume from standby when i press poweron/off button :| any solution?
I think you'd better send it back to HTC.
I had the Standby of Death SOD this is when the phone fails to come out of standby with a power button press. This issue only affects some people on some networks. I'm not sure if its a network problem or a software problem but as only a minority of people have it, I suspect its mainly a network problem there is a software solution.
The solution is to change the phone settings band option from auto 3G/2G to either 3G Only (WCDMA + UTMS 2100 in Europe) or 2G Only (GSM + AUTO) depending on your requirements.
Also read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540943&highlight=standby&page=2 where the resolution was to get a new SIM.
Obviously this only solves the problem when the crash is because of the sim and/or settings which impact the sim. To rule out a software cause its best to start with a hard reset.
try this
problem phone freeze from standby often hapened to me then i try to install "SystemSecurityMonitorPro(V2.2)"
use it before turn on phone from standby
i dont know how it work but it working for me

I'm not going to try and correct you as there can be different solutions to the problem depending on the cause, my solution will only solve the problem if its because of the sim/radio/network, other solutions are to update the radio, get a new SIM, do a hard reset etc etc etc. If it worked for you then it worked for you and your post is welcome.
I've had a strange problem with my BA (SX66) with both the WM5 and WM6 ROMs.
After about a weeks usage and when browsing the Web using WIFI, the WIFI icon at the top of the screen flashes and then my screen goes black. If I try to reboot, it sticks on the Green Windows Mobile screen.
I have to clear the hive, and reboot losing all my data.
Has anyone else had this problem? I don't know if this is a hardware or software problem.
well here i have the same problem but mine is battery related (i think)
Xplode, thanks for taking the time to answer. We greatly appreciate the work you do on the BA.
My first thought was that it was battery related. However, I think it happened to me once on a nearly full charge. I did the No, Yes, Yes hard reset and will test it once again.
I wish HTC would make a Blue Angle II with 3G.
I cold booted my BA and didn't add the HTC Home cab. It appears that the HTC Home cab was causing the problem. I ran the phone for several weeks without HTC Home and I haven't had a problem with it locking up.
Now I'm trying Helmi's ROM with Explodes HTC Home.

I had this problem b4 when it stuck in the green windows mobile screen. I thought it was backup software issue, but then realise that a lot of people had this issue with different circumsatances...
the only solution worked for me was to clear the hive and restore backup data. Some people suggested in the forum somewhere (I forgot which one) that you have to go to bootloader screen, and then reset... or keep reseting until it works (i think some dude did it 18 times and finally worked )
It happened to me about 5 times on helmi's rom.
since i moved on to minhanh's rom, never had this issue anymore, but i still keep doing a lot of backups, just in case it happens again.
Now, I am waiting for Xplode's new up and coming rom and hopefully this issue will never occur again
Hi everybody
Many times, after powering on my HTC, I get this message : " There was a problem with device.exe".
Since then, the device is blocked
At this point, the only way to unblock it is with a soft reset.
Any idea to solve this problem ?
Thanks
Hopefully this is a software related bug. What applications have you installed, maybe it is some kind of incompatibility. Did you already did a hard-reset?
Otherwise you should try to flash a cooked rom, or at least the latest official rom.
i get this problem sometimes as well but only after ive used coreplayer 1.2.5
It could be, I have Core Player 1.2.5 installed too.
I have Coreplayer 1.whatever too.
also, I've been noticing problems with cprog.exe and services.exe along with device.exe.
i had the self same problem.. but i dunno where it came from. it happened a few hours after i bought it, i barely had any apps on there...
i just disabled the error message ^^ phone works fine though...

I have gyrator installed,that's true... but I always close it(it is shutdowned) every time,so I think it cannot influence other active programs...so these errors should have other causes
help for me
i had the problem too. When i made a hardreset after the configuration of the device, the phone will configure the data connection. At this point i cancelled and configured the data connection myself.
At this point the problem with device.exe was gone.
Data connection / device.exe issue
Hi, a while abck i had some problems with services.exe crashing frequently. Even after a hard reset the problem persisted and there was nothing i could do to resolve it. However over time the error stopped occuring.
Now I am having a different issue. A few days ago i started to get a problem with my data connection, it would show as being active and connected but it would not send or receive any data at all. Tried this using Opera and google maps wouldnt download anything. The rpoblem would be disappear after a soft reset but then after the phone went to sleep and awoke it would re-appear.
Now i have started to get frequent device.exe crashes and after this happens my data connection stops working alltogether until i soft reset. But then the program will crash a variable amount of time later. I have not installed anything recently since this started happening. There doesn't seem to be any pattern to the crashes like I have read about on other threads, it has happened while watching the youtube app, browsing the web or simply waking up the phone and having the error report waiting for me.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions from what I have described? I am a bit unwilling to Hard Reset as this did nothing for my previous errors and having read other articles on device.exe errors this did not help others.
Thanks for any help!
device.exe
Same thing for me. Sometimes the data icon appear grayed. When activesync try to connect, device.exe crashed.
The only solution I found is to install addintimer and program task \windows\replog.exe /remote/all/h
Not very elegant but it works. Bug appeared after I updated ROM with official HTC Rom
MOD EDIT
I've merged 2 threads as both on same topic
After doing more reading i found that people on other winmo devices were getting this error on wakeup due to a problem with GPS.
After racking my brains thinking what could cause it i remembered i had lattitude on google maps. Since i've disabled this *touch wood* i've had no more crashes.
spoke to soon. device lasted 2 days instead of a few hours though.. progress at least :/
Same prob here....
Cant turn on wifi, bluetooth and cant connect via usb. Soft and hardreseted also flashed with its preinstalled orange firmware(ofcourse done with sd flashing). Same problems all time.
Is it hardware or software related???
BR
i have same problem but it appeared after hard reset and with out any installs
so i performed another hard rest till now its fine
Everytime error device.exe..
Every connection to pc it shows device.exe error.
I think its hardware
Do anybody help me? After changing old Manila theme I restore again the old one but the problem is 1. The volume icon disapeared when tap the left side volume heardware button . 2. the core plaryer 1.3.2 ver running without sound. How could I can solve this p[roblem?
Hi all.
I've had my Trinity for 3 years now, and all of a sudden, the phone keeps doind hard resets without notice.
I tried to install a different ROM, even a 6.5 one, but this problems keep happening.
Any idea what's the problem??
Thanks in advance.
Anyone??? no one had a problem like this before?
me too
OK,
now I have the same problem.
Screen suddenly get black with backlight on. Only option then is taking the battery out or wait until it's out of power. When this happens, Trinity will start fully reseted next time with every data on on it loss.
And yes, this happens over and over again, so you can really call it some kind of loop.
Good news however, that flashing new ROM would be almost wasted time.
Then it would be even dangerous whilest this happens on flashing.
Also I feel that it does not happen when all automatic power saving options are deactivated. Maybe it happens while switching the backlight off?!
Do you have SIM-Lock? Because I still have and GPS also not installed with oldest Win5 Rom ever (caught on ebay )
Any solution?
Thanks for every idea.
EDIT: I found also this threat beneath. This problems might be of same value.:

I experinced same problem anda discovered that was caused by using my blouetoth headset... stop use that device and nevermore have the problem... i'v heard here thiss issue..
I do not know if I had already said, but for me it worked with the procedure I linked in my last post. Say it was the screen plug inside. It sounds like botch but I have not had any problems anymore
