Vogue is locking up - Touch CDMA General

My Vogue is only about 3 months old, but is already showing signs of age. Recently, when ever I try to access Messaging, it locks up, as in nothing works. I'm currently waiting for the battery to die down and see if that helps. Also, I have yet to have been able to get to Haret to boot into Android, so has anyone else had a similar issue? If I can avoid it, I would not like to flash the ROM on the phone. I'm using the Official Alltel 6.1 ROM.

Try SK Tools

Or Memmaid

If all else fails then try a hard reset.

Man, I know you prolly got a lot of stuff saved on there but you would be so much happier with a custom ROM! and if you dont like the Manilla then check out Conflippers last HTC home ROM. its still much faster than the stock Alltel ROM. Especially if you change the PagePool to 24 before you flash. His HTC Home Rom is in the 2nd post on this thread.

Working on it
Trying to use Memmaid, as soon as my machine recognizes that the phone is connected.

Nope, ActiveSync cannot even reach the device, so there's no way to Flash it or install Memmaid. So, Im out of options, except for the whole "brick" option.

Will it not go into bootloader? you can flash from that screen. In fact its reccomended.
Also you can hard restart you phone by holding the "send" and "end" keys then poking your stylus reset button.

Well this is just great

Funny Story about that. Those ignorant twats at Alltel told me this was a soft reset, not wanting to appear arrogant and rude, I did it, this was over the phone, and she then wanted me to add extras to my plan. Also is there any way I can get old programs to show up from my SD card?

HELP! TyTN freezes/hangs on startup

Hi!
I really need help right now. This is second time my TyTN goes wild this way.
I can start machine allright and I can put PIN-code in but little bit after TyTN hangs totally. It does not respond to anything.
Even hard reset is difficult to do because you have to be so quick to push buttons before systems freezes.
There is no extreme programs or any changes made after last hard reset.
1. Can I do something now on the road?
2. What have I done wrong that it goes wild like this?
Please help ASAP if there is something to do now without HR.
I dont think the freeze can stop the hard reset ... You should be able to HR even when your TyTN is frozen till the ice ages ...
This is not the....
This is not the main issue. I can Hard Reset... but what went wron in the first place? And twice in one week.
Few decent program installations and using ActiveSync in two machines... I think that is the reason somehow... But how to prevent this happening constantly.
Most likely, one of your programs is screwing it up .. You need to figure out which one it is ... Setup one by one manually and see what happens ..
Also, try installing SPB Pocket Plus .. that has a manual safe startup mode .. see if you are able to start up your TyTN in the safe mode .. instead of doing a hard reset everytime ..

Just another thing to check along with suggestions above. Do you use a storage card. If so does it still hang with the card out. And secondly is there a decent amount of on board memory free.?

Had this happen on a Prophet it turns out it was one of the 3rd party software apps installed, the author updated it and no more issues.
I would bet the same thing is happening to you on the TyTn
yer i agree with mark i had same prob with my htc tytn turn out to be a 3rd party bluesnafing tool
What program that...
...might be?
Nothing starts on startup. I mean nothing special that my friend does not have. And he has no problems at all.
My guess still is that problem is ActiveSync. Because in freeze I can see part of ActiveSync window. And ActiveSync starts automatic...
Is there way to prevent ActuveSync on startup?
Thank you for your replys.

_mike_ I wouldn't be that dismissive of that advice. Usually, just where you think your sure you have everything covered in a particular area so theres no need to check, thats usually where your problem is.
The fact is that you and your friend have two different phones. Are the model numbers, lot numbers identical? Did you both in stall the exact same software with the exact same version numbers?
I'm guessing that you missed something there.
You need to be patient and thorough when figuring our these issues.
The best advice to find the answer to your problem has already been given.
Start with a base WM5 build and your ext ROM software. Remove your memory card.
Spend at least a day or two in base config. This will certainly tell you if its the phone or the software.
If your phone stays good, add one of your programs to the phone and wait another day.
repeat this until you find out what's causing the issue.
It's not quick or fast, but it's effective.
Good Luck!

Let us know how you make out.
So what happened with this issue?
Mine has started doing this right after I installed pRSSreader and subscribed to BBc news feed
I took out storage card, soft reset and was quick enough to disable the today screen plugin for the offending app and then uninstall now everything's okay.
Maybe problem was caused by installing pRSSreader to the storage card confused:

There was an issue with pRSSreader 1.3.2 I believe. It happened to me. I was able to disable the today plugin and recover, but it took a few tries. It's supposed to be fixed in the latest version.
Freeze TYTN
I had the same problem after installing Nots Push mail 3 party software.
Each SR make my TYTN freeze.
I have used Memmaid in order to remove it from the startup program
It has solved the problem
Mine hung after installing and uninstalling psShutXp. After uninstalling, I kept getting a notification error message whenever I turned it on concerning psShutXp. Then, it just locked up for good. No amount of soft resets, powering off/on helped. After a hard reset and reinstall of my favorite apps, back to working fine.
I do occassionally lock my phone by accident and I get a little freaked out the next time I use it because nothing works. Then, I realize what I did and that I'm a moron and everything's good again.

Hi,
I now have the same problem. I have only a view programs installed. Each softreset hangs at the windows mobile screen.
As I don't like a hard reset everytime, my workaround is to enter the bootloader and do a softreset from there...
Is it cleared in between, what is causing the hangs?
good night
dsp
Im getting a similiar problem with mine after not having added ANY new software recently. Mine hangs at the HTC screen, and no matter whether there is:
A) sim card and microSD card
B) microSD card only
C) sim card only
D) neither
in the machine, it still just hangs at the HTC screen on startup (regardless of whether its a soft or hard reset), and doesnt even make the startup tone, or play the animation, all it shows are a few digits and such in red at the beginning. PLEASE HELP!
Mine has it too
I know its a year later, but has anyone found an answer for the Freezing / not booting / not starting of the phone?
One reason is if you have a BS rom installed. You need to install a stock NBS rom (make sure radio is stripped out or you will have to reflash yours) the reflash your BS rom. Make sure you back-up your contacts and messages first.
Cheers...

Soft Reset Causes Device to hang

I've got a bit of an odd issue with an XDA Trion/Hermes -
Basically no matter what ROM I use (WM5/WM6/Cooked) after installing a few apps (doesn't matter which ones - I've tried all kinds of combinations) when I do a soft reset the device will boot back up and hang at the Windows Mobile splash screen. If I hard reset the device functions fine again until I load some stuff on it. I've also seen it do this without anything installed - but it is a lot less frequent.
All in all I can't go more than a few days without having to hard reset and reload my stuff. Sometimes its one day, sometimes its multiple days. Restoring from a backup also causes this to happen - so hard resetting and then restoring is not an option. Also, I've left the device at the splash screen from a full battery to dead just to make sure I wasn't being impatient.
Anyone seen this before? Any ideas before I call HTC and ask them to look at it?
Suggest you do some searches on "bad memory block"

Will do - thanks for the suggestion!

Well did I did a bunch of searching as you suggested - spent almost 4 hours yesterday just on the forum looking for answers on this. Using "mtty" and checking in the bootloader I've determined there to be no bad blocks.
I've tried all sorts of different WM6 Roms, Hard SPL, you name it. All of them end up with the same problem.
The only time I don't have a problem is when I use an OEM WM5 ROM. Using an OEM WM6 Rom - I have the problem come back.
RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30.00_108_Ship == NO Lockup on Splash Screen

Any other ideas?
Mmm... well I think you need someone more expert than I. You might try a PM to the likes of MrVanx to see if anyone has reported this or some of the other developers for the Hermes Pof et al.
Mike
Thanks Mike I appreciate the attempt - I think I might just be happy with the fact that its working again. Its really just backup device to my iPhone but at least now I can rely on it again to hold onto my data for more than a couple days. I'll spend some more time reading all the posts. Now that I know what I have to do to get it working again after trying something experimental its not so bad.
Thanks again
I've been having the same problem with my 8525, it like sometimes more then not, it freezes at the green windows mobile. It is really frustrating, let me know if you have found a solution, but the problem with my 8525 is the lag, in it, I'm thinking of maybe switching to a blackberry 8320 if this problem doesn't get fixed.

Are you experiencing the same problem as the poster? I am not experiencing anything like it at all. I have a jasjam, and flashed with a shipped ROM first, and then with CRCinAU's version 11.2, what have you got installed on your phone? Just remember the specs of the hermes, compared to the likes of a raphael or even a polaris (touch cruise).
Don't go jumping the gun getting an iphone, read this bit for a bit of a review. I honestly not having the problems some of the guys are having here knowing my phone's limitations and what I can get out of my hermes.

I am getting the same problem as the poster. I have a Palm Treo 750 running WM6 from Palm web site ATT version 2.25 download.
After I load a few of my apps on there the phone will all of a sudden start playing up with the buttons not responding. I do what you should be able to do and soft reset by it all stops at the windows logo then end of story. Only way out is hard reset and set everything up again.

Must be some app conflict, I have my wife's treo with me at the moment and it is as good as new, can't imagine what would be conflicting with the treo tho

New to this...any help appreciated

Alright...so here goes. I have been out of the smartphone market for some time now and am getting this awesome phone tomorrow. I am friggin excited! Feels like Christmas in the summer! Verizon tells me that it will already come with the 6.1 update installed. Anyone gotten one recently to verify this, and how do I tell when I get it...also how can I tell the radio that it has? I also already wanna mod this machine, and although I am selfproclaimed computer savvy, I am a little nervous about bricking the phone. I think I def want either an iCRAP setup to piss off everyone at work, or nfsfans 6.5....although I would like to have someone walk me through it. I have to say, everyone on this forum has done an excellent job with their machines and I am impressed. Also, I don't know that this will even be an issue, but it will still need to function as a phone and pda...as I have read in a few different places that some cant use their phone function anymore, etc. And I definitely wanna get the GPS running ASAP, due to travel on the job. Any help will be greatly appreciated, and I will def help out anyone on here if I can. I also am not sure about when and when not to let customizations run...any help with that would be awesome too
i am also getting this phone from vzw thursday, they told me it comes standard with wm6.0 idk or care. as soon as i get it im gonna flash a custom rom.
Hey there, I'm a fellow Verizon user. It was kind of nerve-wracking flashing the ROM for the first time, but its really NBD once you get into it (be sure and try android too!).
Do your reading first, there are tutorials all over the place. Something to remember about customizations - Don't let them run on any official Verizon updates you see floating around the internet, as they will cripple your GPS. Don't let them run on any ROM designed for another carrier. If you're flashing a generic or Verizon-specific CUSTOM ROM, let them run.
And you can check in settings to see your radio and OS version and all that (under "about" I think, correct me if I'm wrong)
Have fun!
so if i run mr1 from verizon to get to wm6.1, then I SHOULD NOT not run customizations. What buttons do I press to do a hard reset before that comes up? But, if I were to do NFSFAN's 6.5 rom, then I SHOULD let customizations run. Also, could someone point me to a set of CLEAR directions on doing the flashes? I have read a bunch of them, and it seems they are all missing little parts.....probably something so familiar to the editor, they just forget to include in the steps.
Yes, the lack of CLEAR instructions as a stickey is a real problem on a lot of boards. I've read threads over 300 posts in order to get solid info. I don't mind searching for info, but jeesh, guys it is unbearable. Granted some of this stuff is not for the faint of heart, but there can be so much info, and sometimes it is often confusing and contradictory. The SR. members and the Admins need to get their heads together and take a month to provide the community some solid resources, and weed out some of the erroneous info here. We want to make having this phone FUN and Practical. A Case in point is trying to get GPS working. Have you guys looked at all the info on here about this. Granted there is variety of carriers, but it shouldn't be brain surgery.
Also chevyspd,you want to do a SOFT reset before the customizations. Use your stylus to depress the small hole in the bottom of the phone before they run. Should be golden. A HARD reset will restart the flashing process from scratch.
10-4....so only do a soft reset by only pressing the button in the hole on the bottom before customizations runs. That is very contradictory from about 50 other posts I've read so far. A whole bunch of them say to do a HARD reset, but I will remember not to. But, when I do a custom rom like NFSFANS, I don't have to do a reset at all....correct?
You wouldn't believe how many times I got flamed for that same kinda comment on other forums.....interestingly though....Also...if I flash to NFSFANs 6.5, are the cubes still active, or is that something from HTC that gets written over with a new rom?
So, my new phone already has 6.1 right outta the box. Interestingly enough, it went to the customizations screen as soon as I powered the phone up, so I immediately hit the soft reset. How can I tell if what I did worked, and if it didn't, how can I fix it so I can use 3rd party gps programs?
Wow; a lot of questions. I'm not sure about NFSFAN's rom. To see if the gps works, make sure you have the Settings>phone>services>location is set to on. Then make sure the external gps setting is set to Comm4, then hardware NONE, baud 4800, and allow Windows to manage gps. Do a Google search for HTC QuickGPS if it's not already on your phone (varies from carrier to carrier) and Install it; Run it, outside and allow it 10 minutes to get a lock. If gps is working, then you should be golden. You will probably need to turn the radio on after every re-boot; and be aware that leaving the radio going WILL drain you battery faster than usual. All this assumes you are using the stock rom, and not one of the custom ones; each to those varies, some work out of the box so to speak, some of them require tweaking.
Funny i just got the phone yesterday to, but i actually already had it for about a year lol, just replaced the one i broke on saturday. But honestly the first thing i did with the phone is put in my SD card and boot up Android....
I really want my GPS back again but i dont really want to go through the hassle of unlocking, flashing, unlocking, and flashing, but if you deem it neccessary. and maybe i will to one day soon. lol heres the link

The cube is way back when man, sorry but those things are old school already. lol so when you flash to the 6.5 NFSFAN rom it will not have the cube, but it will have titanium and manilla 2d, which in my opinion are awesome replacements

HTC Elf, PC - Phone File Transfer

Something that has been bugging me is the speed at which file are copied between my pc and my phone.
I was playing with my dads phone (The HTC Touch Diamond 2) and I noticed a nice feature, when the phone is connected to the pc it asks you to choose a connection setting, namely: Active Sync, File Storage, or Internet Conn Sharing.
If you choose the file storage mode, the phone appears as a flash disk type device with access to the storage card and files are transfered at the same speed as one would expect from a flash disk.
So my question basically is, is it possible to do something like that with my HTC Elf, I'm running WM 6.0.
Thank in advance.

Too late I'm afraid... did the whole rom upgrade thing, got a bit carried away and now my phone is bricked, so much so that it wont even power on... looks like it was my 1st and last smartphone.

It was working perfectly until it restarted after I tried restoring my dumped SPL and IPL. I don't know why it would just become so totally unresponsive, its never given any trouble before.

You cannot ever restore dumped spl or ipl, as you can get it from the forums.
Gold card method left.
Check the elf-upgrading forum.
Oh well, you live you learn... I was relieved to find that I still have 3 months on the warranty, and the phone is so stuffed up that I don't think theres even any way to tell that I had all sorts of funky roms on the device.
I started looking into the idea of restoring the device with the JTAG technique, but there's not much info out there re: the elf, so I thought I'd be kind to myself and just drive all the way out to Lab88 and get them to repair it.
Hold thumbs, lol...

Blackstone screwed!!! Help!!!

I have a situation out here..a TERRIBLE one
Since couple of hours back, its seems that the END KEY button is 'pressed' continuously. So I cannot use the device anymore as its always in locked state.
Figured it out because, sometimes I managed to unlock it but locked back again in no time.
Was using Dutty's Holy Grail.
Tried flashing other ROMS, even stocks ones; but they all stuck up on alignment. Upon restart, the unlock thing appears at the bottom (6.1 ROM) but its only for a second or so and that alignment things take control again.
I do not know if I've explained it well, kinda freaked out here
Guys, pls. do help me out...I've tried soft/hard resets, flashing...

When alignment screen appears have you tried pressing power on/off, as this should hopefully bring you back to lockscreen where you may be able to unlock device before going back to alignment screen.
If you are still unable to unlock device its most likely due to a hardware issue with button and its probably worthwhile returning device under warranty. Ensure you have returned to stock SPL & rom beforehand
Thanks a lot for your response.
Tried that too..pulling out the stylus unlocks it for a moment though, but still not of any benefit.
Warranty hmmm....I got it from UK as it was cheaper from where I live.
Anyway will try to get some local support.

If the country that you bought the device and the country that you live are both member's of the European Union you are entitled to a 2 year hardware warranty as long as you can provide the initial purchasing receipt/invoice
Also it helps if the phone is in stock rom with the official spl but that is not obligatory by any means.
Have you tried bypassing the alignment phase? Try this:
The solution, to skip or bypass the screen alignment process altogether.
How to do it: Create a blank text file called, welcome.not, instead of welcome.not.txt, and place it in the root of your storage card. Next, flash a new rom or hard reset and you're done. If all goes to plan, the "welcome" phase will be bypassed, and you will not be prompted to align the screen or set the date, location, time etc.
If for some reason it does not, go into the root of your SD and manually with your stylus or via activesync on your desktop create a new blank file in there and name it welcome.not. If it works then leave it in the root of your SD and it will allow the bypass with each new flash or hard reset.

That should at least get you past the alignment phase at least.

If the country that you bought the device and the country that you live are both member's of the European Union you are entitled to a 2 year hardware warranty as long as you can provide the initial purchasing receipt/invoice
Also it helps if the phone is in stock rom with the official spl but that is not obligatory by any means.

I cooked a rom without windows lock and welcome, but still can't use the mobile. Touching the screen only brings the back light up..doesn't do anything else
Don't know what went wrong, it was placed peacefully on a table, had used it 15~20mins back; and when i try to use it again BAM!
Have a feeling its the digitizer.

well, just after a day, the same problem occured. HD was locking on it own BLAH BLAH. Gave it back to the guy who repaired it and he fixed it again today.
Well, I didn't want to take any chances, so, just bought a HD2
EDIT: I was told that the problem was with the sensor, I'm sure he meant digitizer.
If you are sure that its nothing to do with the software, send it for repair. If not under warranty, get it repaired by someone trustable
Best of luck, I feel for you
