Locks after typing "I" in TXTMSG - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

My 8525 has been great for ages now.
I haven't had time to change any settings or mess with new roms lately.
But it's been very stable, so I've been happy with it lately..
All of a sudden today it locks up everytime I type "I" or "i" by itself. If the letter "I" is in a word it seamed to be ok. This only happend in Text Messaging. I am using the number "1" instead and it's been fine since.
Oh and I used the Slide out and the on-screen keyboard Both did the same thing.
I've rebooted what feels like a million times today.
I'll probably just reload with a newer rom tonight but it's the strangest thing I've ever seen.
Maybe the phone thinks we are a team and there is no "I" in team...
I am sure nobody will have any ideas.. but it was worth a shot posting..
Now everybody will think I am crazy..

Anything starting with I does it..
So I am thinking the dictionary is corrupt...
Anyone know where this file is?
I'll do some searching when I have a min but thought someone could help right away..

Time zone popup
I am having the same issue... was not happening on stock ROM but have had the issue with the 2.5 manilla on multiple roms.. the current rom i have only pops up once in a while.. but previous roms were having the popup every few seconds.. would like to know if anyone has figured the issue out also...

I think its an issue with Manilla 2.5. Thats why I have that feature disabled.
Are you guys using TP2 in T-Mobile service? I am using TP2 in AT&T, I thought maybe that was the issue! But I guess its the compatibility!
yeah its on tmobile for me tmobile branded as well... does it in all roms it sems very annying i was doing a recording and it popped up stopping my record same with video .. NOT GOOD.. hope someone who knows an answer will respond cus im surprised anyone did at all at this point
It has to do with the bands, if you are on 3g and lose 3g service it switches to edge which brings up the time zone pop up... it's very annoying.
ok well that kinda makes sense its nice to have a reason for its stupidity lol ... so why isnt there a fix ? the kaiser and mogul never did that.. the only thing ive sen was a rom i tried that had in the changelog something about time zone fix or whatever but it still happened on that rom too
This also seems to occur quite often after locking my phone and unlocking it with the pin number. Makes sense after reading this topic why the time zone selection appears after you unlock it. If someone can create a cab fix for this, it would be most appreciated! Thanks.
I am having the same problem. I tried to ignore it but it is getting kind of annoying. I have flashed about 6 different ROMs in the past week and it is happening with all of them. After finding this thread, I tried to make some changes to see if I could get the Time Zone settings to stop popping up and may have fixed it. I noticed that under "Items" in the "Today" settings, HTC Home was selected in addition to TouchFLO 3D. I disabled HTC Home and have not noticed the Time Zone settings pop up since then. If someone else can try this, we may be able to confirm this as a fix for the Time Zone pop ups.
If you go into settings>personal>phone> time zones that should fix the problem. I've done it on all my flashes and it works.
OMG
someeh
been looking everywhere for this fix thank you much!!!
It has been over 4 hours and I have not gotten a Time Zone pop up... Has anyone else tried disabling HTC Home? If so, please post your results.
Since my last post I disabled auto update of timezone and still haven't had one. I was going to flash a different rom because of this, THANKS FOR THE ADVICE!!

keyboard only types numbers???

I have had a bit of a search and found simular problems but no answer, so wondering if anyone else has had this problem,
when using phone keypad for a few messages it just starts inputing the numbers not the letters? and i haev to end up doing a soft reset ???
I have got other keyboards to use but got used to the standard keypad.
anyone got any ideas
Press the key marked "ABC"

Yep, this happens about once a week.
Usually when I receive a text message and want to go in and reply to it - the Phone Keypad input only types numbers no matter what. To get around it I have to lock/unlock the phone a few times to get it out of this frustrating bug.
I've had this problem myself a couple of times, and I've found that closing the keypad and let it re-open itself by pressing the input box often solves the problem. If I open the keypad myself by pressing the SIP button, this problem occurs more frequently.
for me wen dat happenes i click on back then all messages and then open d sms from der and the keyboard works fine.... no need to soft reset......
the ABC button doesnt work, as mentioned it only seems to do it when i reply to someone,
i will try the going back button then try again, hmmmm anoying little thing
thanks for the feedback guys
Guys do not worry its just another bug of HD2 (literally an expensive crap )
i believe htc would have done proper homework before releasing set ..
HD2 has broken my heart

Stop being so negative and read some of the good reports on here.
Back on topic, I've had this phone for nearly 2 months now and have never experienced this problem. Also, it's only been reported by a handful of the many users on this forum.
The best thing you can do is report it to HTC. If you don't and it never gets fixed then you've only got yourself to blame. If you tell HTC and they never fix it, then you can start moaning about them.
I have experienced that bug too, I recently upgraded from O2 branded 1.43 firmware to HTC 1.48, but haven't tested that for long enough to know if it's still there. If so I'll try and report to HTC if I can.
As promised - I've just had the problem happen with my current firmware, 1.48. After clicking through from the HTC messages SMS view to reply to a message. Keyboard opened in QUERTY mode, though I'm pretty certain I had it set on keypad to send an sms a few minutes earlier too. Toggling open/close, ABC/T9 modes, keboard/keypad, shift and number/text modes also doesn't cure it.
Lock and unlock the screen (from the start menu), its caused by the lockscreen.exe crash, which causes a number of things and is very common.

Nexus Stops Sending txts?

Ok I have a nexus one and I'm using Handcent OS, and i thought it was the program itself so I Decided to reset the phone to factory, and try it. It seems that after an amount of time of the phone being on it stops recieving data and sending it..like txt messages and I get network errors.. Is this a common bug or is my device buggy? because when i restart it, it all works again..but when I use it after awhile it will fail sending messages... and then I have to restart to finish sending my txt message...
my phone is doing this too. i thought it was just me. It does it with the stock SMS and Handcent as well. Just fails to send messages or send/receive calls. I hope it gets worked out, I love this phone to death!
P.s. I am not rooted

I'm not rooted either, because I love the phone stock... I would rather keep my warranty intact just incase something retarded happens. But yah I think its a software bug...or something to do with the 3g signal and all that signal bug thing going on...I love my phone too its so sexy..I love making my friends Iphone look like a piece of trash with icons..
A few times each week I get the exclamation mark in the red triangle when trying to text and I after I try a bunch more times it'll either work or Ill have to restart the phone. But I can't remember having an issue with phone calls. Sometimes ill dial and it will just hang up but it always works right after when I call again. There are a Lot of software issues that Im sure Google will address through time. Hopefully that's all this is....

Ok good to see its not just me and I can go back to sleep next to my nexus one LOL (Fail) Mafian
anyone else notice the nexus one only flips one way and that left landscape and then back to normal? it doesn't flip in all directions when rotating the phone? Is that just my phone or is that known widely and will it be fixed?

I have this happen to me too intermittently. A quick reboot always resolves the issue. I just chalk it up to T-mobile network issues.

Same I think its tmobile too.. Oh well can't do anything about that..they just simply need to fix they towers...I got a tower about 3 miles down the road and its not very strong I only get 3g on the left side of my bed and I get edge when i walk to the right side of my bed lol
WE need a reboot application that reboots at night at least once everyday should fix it? ya think..Without root being needed....
Pinch to zoom needs to work in more than one spot... I've noticed in some spots it should be applicable and its not...depressing..
Glad to hear that I'm not the only one experiencing this issue.
It's not a T-Mobile network issue: If it regularly occurs, and rebooting your phone fixes it, then it's not an issue with T-Mo's network or SMSC, it's the phone.
Are there any bug reports filed with Google for this one? Does anyone else running non-stock ROMs have this problem as well?

One thing about typing its almost impossible to convey inflection so I don't know if you're kidding. If you aren't
, which would be weird, I don't know of any Android phones that flip any direction other than to the left for portrait. I'm sure there are custom roms that flip every which way but not stock
I'm not sure what you mean about zoom but it works in gallery, maps, browser and 3rd party apps can utilize it. Out of curiosity, where else did you think it should be available? I would say for documents but I guess that's a decision for the application's dev...

Facebook would be nice when your viewing other peoples pictures ya think? Some apps I'll list later but thats one of them
It happened on my G1 as well.
Maybe just some random Android bug ?
Y'all install handscent? I heard that causes a text bug..... thats what I heard so right off the bat I installed chomp sms and no problems...
I get the sms fail bug intermittently and I am on CM 5.0.4.1 although I never seemed to notice it before I started using Handcent. I do love that app though, is there a different one that is comparable?
Yes CM5.0.4.1 does allow for 360 degree rotation. You can flip the phone upside down and it rotates!

[Q] Keyboard and Calls Issues

I love my Epic. Recently I have had two problems.
My physical keyboard doesnt register every letter I type. I would say it has about a 90% accuracy. It is not a particular key that doesnt work. Anyone else having this issue? Would this be covered under the manufacturer's warranty> I dont have a Sprint warranty.
Many times when I place a call the first attempt I hear nothing and the person on the other end hears me. When I try the call again it works every time. Any ideas?
Much thanks!
the keyboard problem was discovered when the epic first cam out. There's still no fix or workaround, except that some people think disabling swype will help.
The calling problem is a software one. Are you running dk28? That's a bug with it. You won't hear nothing, so you hang up and then they'll call you back like "why didn't you say anything?" Lol
I tried ordering chinese food and my phone kept doing that so I had to keep caling and I'm sure we were all annoyed lol
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I read on another thread about the call issue, and someone said to "toggle" the speaker phone icon. For me the Toggle fix around works, also another statement was to wait for the timer to start counting before putting the phone to the ear and turning off the screen.
It's nice to know that I'm not alone. The Chinese food story is funny. People think I can't operate my phone!
Yes, I am running DK28 with a midnight ROM. T believe the keyboard issues was present when I had Eclair, too.
I'll try the phoej work around.
Thanks fellas.

Spacebar triggers emoticons or comma

Anyone have an issue on the DVP while using the keyboard that when you hit spacebar, it actually cycles over to emoticons or inserts a comma instead? It's happened a few times. A reboot seems to fix it for a while. And even if I just fiddle I can get spacebar to go, and then it might not do it again right away. But it's come back a few times now. Maybe something on the screen/capacitor could be broken? May need to call for replacement?
are you running the 7720 mango RTM? if so, i've been having my slider do some funny things as well, it might be related to the software. if so, we'd just have to wait until the official update is released from t-mobile before it's fixed.
I am on 7392 Nodo/Firmware fix.
The issue happens pretty infrequently... maybe less than once a week!
