Now that the honeymoon period is over I have started noticing a few problems with the JJ. The most serious I noted is that when the JJ has gone through some use after its last soft reset it tends to freeze when a new text message arrives in the in-box. This does not happen when the JJ has been freshly soft reset and only when some time has passed since it was last soft reset. Since I have set the unit to vibrating alert on receipt of a new message the vibrator continuously starts operating and the phone freezes. To stop the vibrator you need to do a soft reset again.
Anybody had this problem??? I am planning to do a hard reset and see what happens.

Definitely related to some software that you have installed. I use sms everyday and havent faced any such problem.
Yes it does freezes your device when you receive new SMS, some time even I lost the SMS which was coming tru,..
Once I lost the MMS Account itself, then had to go for softreset and got it back again...
I've had the same thing happening. Very annoying. That's just Microsoft as we know it. We can't get out of the habbit of frequent softresets.
I did a complete ROM upgrade today and I replaced the Arabic ROM which came preinstalled on my JJ with the english version as available at the clubimate site. Without installing any 3rd party software I tested the SMS freezing problem and unfortunately it is very much there. This at least proves that no 3rd party software is to blame for this.
Now I am thinking that maybe I will have to dispose of the JJ as I so much depend on text messaging. The worst part is that as the JJ freezes on arrival of a new SMS the message itself is also lost and after doing the soft reset you can never tell from whom the message was.
I will really appreciate if anyone can help
Kind Regards

If you have an SD card inserted try removing it and see if the problem persist.
What i dont get is why this problem is unique to a very small percentage of devices. Many of use the device for SMS quite frequently and dont face this problem. I wonder what the triggering factor is.

I have this problem since I updated my ROM.
I posted this a few days back that the Jasjar tends to hang not all the time but most of the time when a new SMS arrives and in fact the SMS is also lost when you recover after a soft reset.
I thought that I will re-post this question because now more users would have had more experience with their Jasjars. For me this problem does not seem to go. I have tried even a hard reset and the problem keeps coming back even with no third party software installed.
I shall be obliged if anyone else who has had this problem may kindly post his views because this may put some pressure on the people at i-mate to come up with a fix. I fear that since this problem is being faced by a very small minority of JJ users a fix may never see the light of the day.
Kind Regards
I have a himalaya device with WM5 and have the exact same 'sms-lockup' problem.
Also, somethimes all the incoming calls are forwarded to my voicemail, even when my phone ison and the signal is strong and im not using my device. This can only be solved by a reset or after i made a call myself. Till that time no-one could call me!
The problems started when i installed another WM5-rom and a new radio-rom( 1.18 ). This was the first time a upgraded the radio-rom, so i think this could be the problem.
Im going to install the older radio-rom ver1.08 (recommanded in combi with WM5 by buzzdef.net). I hope this solves it!
I to have the same problem... Every time you open a new text message or even after sending message and when you get delivery report it freezes and you will have to reset.. but if you are in the middle of a call the phone still works fine but not able to use the PDA part because its freeze...
Have installed another, older, radio-rom( 1.08 ) and used it for almost a week... no freezes sofar!! I dont know if this rom can be used for a Universal device...
Just uncheck the "turn off device after..." option in battery settings and this problem will go away.
This was pointed out by user Khaled in another thread.
im also experiencing this after i upgraded to Second Edition. my Himalaya tends to freeze when receiving SMS. applications starts to slow down but will eventually recover after the SMS receipt notification, no need for softresets. i also noticed that currently, it would take about 10 seconds before SMS notification appears in the screen. im sure about this because i would know that an SMS is coming because my computer monitor, adjacent to my XDA, would flicker. so the turn-around time from the flickering of the monitor to the SMS notification would last around 10-12 seconds. is this normal?
I was so fed up with the SMS freezing problem that I sold my Jasjar, albeit at a much loss and exchanged it for a new one.
Just my bad luck the problem is also there on my 2nd Jasjar. It is exactly the same as the one I have sold. When I get a new SMS the unit freezes and has to be soft reset. Please note that this does not happen every time but say 1 in 10 times. Anyways this makes the whole system very unreliable. When your phone is in your pocket and an SMS causes it to freeze you will never know if now somebody tries to make an urgent call because your unit is not responding.
I have also tried the remedy / fix mentioned in this fourm to to Uncheck Turn Off Device but does not work.
My only hope is that this problem is fixed in the next ROM upgrade.
In the meantime I am evaluating prospects of leaving the WM platform altogether and going for a Nokia 9500
a friend just adviced me that it was my Radio version that is causing the problem. 1.18 has a lot of bugs including this freezing issue. so he suggested that i reflash my ROM and go back to Radio version 1.17. could somebody point me where the bug issues of 1.18 are listed here in the forum? thanks
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
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"
Keyboard only typing numbers from wake-up

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.

I have had the phone 2 days now and getting this a few times each day. The lock unlock things works for me cheers.
my keyboard switch to the number mode and freezes...and this problem doesnt solve even with soft reset.what can I do?!!!
hi ..
that has happend to me a few times. i have now put the new ROM on so will monitor the problem.
Hey guys,
Despite the fact that I have installed this latest rom (1.66), I'm still having the sms problem. They dont get stuck or anything, they just never arrive, and this happens alot, which is really frustrating.
Since no one is still complaining about it, I'm wondering if the problem only hasn't been fixed in the dutch release of this rom.
I did notice, theres also a minor sms update, which says its for 1.66 and lower. But this update has been released before the rom was released.
I'm not sure if this will fix my problem, and since it can't be uninstalled, I'd like to know your experiences with this.
Thanks
Bump, anyone? This bug is annoying the hell out of me.

Not saying that it isn't the device, but have you tried another phone to see if they arrive on that?
I had similar issues with my old Nokia E90, and it turned out to be a network issue (they had to remove a corrupt message from the server)

Yes, I have tried my old Nokia N95 also, which went well. Messages just sometimes do, and sometimes dont arrive. Resetting doesn't change anything, neither does it make not-yet-sent messages, be sent.
Steef have you solved your issue already?I had this issue on rom 1.48 dutch as well, after x applying the htc fix it happens rarely now.very annoying that htc does not seem to be able to fix this issue.
since my sent sms would be sent if I soft reset my device if the problem appears, I guess your problem may be of different cause. I have read that a hard reset fixes the problem for some people.
I would like to know when and how you fix your issue...
My Problem is whenever i use to get an incoming call,i slide it to ANSWER direction,and it becomes stuck over there..i tried calling to my hd2 through other phone and whenever i tried to answer it in my hd2 by sliding it to ANSWER direction it stucks over there without connecting,and on the other which i am calling keeps on Ringing..
what is this problem..atlast i have to reset to the factory setting then only it becomes OK.
Please someone find me a solution
thank you

This problem i have it since i upgraded my rom version (3.14.479.2)
i tryed soft reset, hard restet.......and nothing happen ! Still this problem....aaa help???
Hello,
I have the same problem. I have had this problem with the MIUI and the Cyanogen ROM. Even after updating it still gets stuck.
When I receive a call the screen turns black and I can only answer it by pressing the button, not by using the screen. After the call the screen is still black and the only way to use it is to reset my phone (take out battery).
Any help?
