Hey guys I have JFv1.42 RC33 on my phone. Everything works great except I've been noticing that my auto rotate doesn't work anymore in browser and reg screen using "DroidSans Tweak Tool" I thought that the app just malfunctioned or something.
Today I recently installed "Shoryuken" an app involving the use of the accelerometer, and none of the functions were working, I thought it was just the app so i uninstalled/reinstalled and rebooted several times. Still doesn't work.
So I came up with a test to see try and figure out if the accelerometer was working or not, my beloved game, PapiJump. Sadly he only jumps vertically up. So thats when I figured my accelerometer doesn't work.
Is there a fix for this? If there is, what do I do? If there isn't...What should I do?
try to install the rc33 again. it happend to me too and a reisntallation fixed it.
amir
yea I tried that twice, it didnt work.
Anyone else have any ideas how I can fix this?
Did it stop after you did somethin new to your phone or just stopped for no reason? Drop your phone at all?
Hopefully its just a software issue, maybe you can downgrade to r29 check it then. If not i might just be broken.
Unroot and return to tmobile?
I think it stopped after i dropped my phone? But I'm not sure because I don't use my phone for much that requires the accelerometer.
Think u busted it
If u bought it from tmobile call them and tell them it stopped wokin suddenly. If not not much u can do... it might decide to work again someday. Google search g1 dismantle guide or accelerometer repair, somethin like that. Maybe someone has done this repair b4
EDIT: i dont recommend u do this unless u REALLY need ur accel. Its prob not worth riskin mricking ur phone over
OMG A FIX
Guys so today, my friends were messing with my phone and they guessed too many times on my password and my phone was locked out. I needed my email and password to unlock it. This has happened twice before sadly...anyways I was going to call tech support, but I needed yo unlock my phone. I spent all of the school day trying to unlock my phone, even though the information was correct it wouldn't not unlock. I got PO'd that I would have to hard reset, when I did, after installing some of my applications again, my Accelerometer worked again!
HOORAY!!! so if this happens to you, hard reset your phone before calling tech support maybe it'll work!
Haha, nice Peter.
Grats. I got the Shoryukin app to work too. Bwahahaa.
me too its amazing lol
I installed JF 1.5 and now I can't receive mms messages. I can send them but can't receive them. I tried putting a different sim in the phone, and now my accelerometer does not work at all. It seems strange that switching sims would cause this, but I can't think of anything different that I did. I switched sims before with other roms and haven't had this problem. I'm going to try resetting my phone later tonight.

I just bought my xv6900 2 days ago and i noticed that each time my phone goes idle as it goes to sleep and when someone text messages me i dont get a notification until i turn on the phone again with the button on top of the phone. and also sometimes i dont receive a call and when i next turn back on my phone it says missed call..
does anyone perhaps have the same problem or know whats wrong with my phone?
I have had the same problem and can't figure it out. I've done a hard reset and that fixes it for a bit, but no long term solution.
I have the following Software Installed:
SPB Mobile Shell
VIP Ringtone Manager
Shubaroo Group SMS

i have yet to install any other apps that didnt come with the phone. and i read that forum link u gave me, it doesnt seem to be my battery because i know my battery was at 80% when this happend. its such a nice phone but this really pisses me off. wish there was a solution.
I am having the same issue. I called verzion and they know nothing about it. Everyone who has this please call. I really like this phone but if it doesnt work like a phone its useless.
I've seen same problem on a Sprint Touch so it's not specific to Verizon.
I had 2 Sprint Touch phones side by side and one would not wake up from suspend for an incoming text or phone call. The second Touch worked properly and they had the exact same configuration. No clue why some of the HTC Vogue's have this issue and others don't.
I would call Verizon and ask for a swap if they ignore your problem.
Well I did a hard reset and it worked great for few days! Now back to normal.. looks like it is going back to verizon. Not sure what to get though.
Got the same problem but some days it works fine and some days it doesnt. I througth i had to much stuff saved or downloaded on the phone but when i removed programs that i downloaded that i never used it didnt fix anything so im puzzled like everyone else here.
same issue
I have had mine for several months now, i just had to do a hard reset recently and my phone has done the same exact thing ever since. I thought maybe it was a problem with polling. I did notice this time I hard reset, verizon did not have me set my A key, instead they changed something on their side and had me do a 228 reprogram. So i wonder if something is being changed via this new method ( the guy told me he just figured out he could do it this way and not require me to set my akey ).
hi im new to android phones but i got 2 htc heroes, 1 for me and 1 for my gf, i rooted and installed fresh rom 1.0 on my phone no problems at all. my gf decided to keep hers stock.i had installed fresh rom and rooted my phone because i was having 100% awake problem, i tried everything i could read on the forums but nothing has helped. its not really that big of a deal considering im getting what i consider excellent battery life for my phone.
but my gf's phone has now started having a problem that i cannot fix, her vibrate on her phone just stopped working completely, i checked the settings and everything is enabled and everything looks good, so i did a hard reset which didnt fix the issue, then i restored it with a back up.
i figured at this time the best thing to do is go to sprint and swap them both out, im loving the phone, and the freedom to customize it, i just hate the 100% awake problem, and the no vibrate is a big deal as it vibrate with calls,texts, or keyboard feedback.
if you guys have any input on what it might be that would be great, but all these phones started having problems when they were stock and not rooted, with minimal apps downloaded.
Thanks in advance
Jon
When the phone is powered off and you very first power it on, it should vibrate right away. That is hard coded in to the phone. Does it do that?
If not then the vibe is defective.
no it didnt, i just went ahead and traded both my phones for new ones, both are working great, no more 100% awake for me and my gf has a phone that vibrates. Now its time to root and flash with Fresh 1.0 again.
TY for your response guess it was just a bad one
quick question, when you exchanged the phone, was it still rooted? im having the same problem with my phone and its a little annoying. ive been looking around to see if there is a way to unroot the phone, but it doesnt look like there is a way to do it.

yea it was rooted and still flashed with 1.0 they took it back no problems, since i was still under the 30days return policy.
vibration not working
i rooted my phone with just some rom i found and about an hour ago the vibration stopped working. this is bad for me, i need the virbation more than anything. my 30-day warranty is up but i do have the insurance on my phone, will they let me exchange it even though it is rooted?
Thanks
I was having a similar problem. I downloaded the volume control app and unclicked and reclicked the little vibrate icon above the actual volume level and it fixed it for me.
My HD2 randomly turns off when it wants to. Theres no set command or application that causes this. Usually it turns off when I make a call. The screen will show I am calling someone, and sometimes I will get away with making a successful call but now its getting much more frequent where I am thinking I am talking to someone and I dont even know that the phone has turned off. It usually happens more when I am making the call and less when I receive the call.
The phone also turns off because of the slightest of heat building up. Using Co-pilot for more than 20mins will cause the battery to heat up. But its not just Co-pilot that causes it, sometimes if its just being used for relief from boredom and and browsing through pics and emails, then it heats up a little and that will be enough for it to turn off.
Everytime this has happened, the HD2 resets, comes to the home screen(where the time and network is shown) and then resets again. This will repeat 3 to 4 times and then it either freezes on the white HTC screen with the red writing at the bottom, or it will just freeze on one of these screens that appear turn by turn to get to the home screen. In this case, what I have to do, I have to physically take the battery out and then turn it back on.
I've tried finding solutions in this forum and for some other problems that people have experienced (not the same as mine, but slightly different), experts have said to perform a hard reset whereby it brings the phone back to the factory settings and everything is wiped off the phone. I have tried backing everything up but it wont let me back up my contacts. Using ActiveSync it says, I must need outlook contacts configured but I dont understand. Can someone please tell me how to back up my contacts.
All of these problems are giving me constant problems daily when I am using my phone and is putting this amazing HD2 to shame.
I forgot to mention, I have:
OS version: 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
manila 2.5.19211619.0
ROM version: 1.48.405.2 (71924) WWE
ROM date: 11/18/09

no i havent had any reply yet.was hoping i would. i dont know how to bump this thread either.
similar problem here,
- on my unit resets and reset loops happen when battery temperature exceeds 31-32oC
(BattClock has option to display this info)
- hard reset / ROM re-flashing did not help
- someone on this forum suggested checking the battery connector pins on the unit - supposedly straitening them may help

Dont know how to bump but I am BUMPing it like this so one of the experienced techies will read this and pass on some of their precious technological knowledge and shed some light.
Im having the same problems as well..... to the point i longer use the phone and switched back to my iphone. Im still hanging on to it and hope that android can be ported.... but man what a shame it could have been the ultimate phone.
I just phoned HTC yesterrday and asked them what they could do to help. I was told to do a hard reset (shock shock horror horror!) and see if it does anything. So after backing everything up and doing a hard reset I think my heart wanted to believe that this would fix the issue and so I performed the hard reset. Unfortunately right after, I had to use the phone to go somewhere and so I thought Id try using the co-pilot but before reaching that, it turned off.
I have been using it today and I still have those problems, its turned off randomly whenever it wants to. I have got away with making a couple of calls but that was because most of them have been incoming calls.
Plz technicians help me out....
Im thinking of calling htc and telling them to fix it, they said they could book it in?
i have same problem... randomly freez on startup screan or randomly resrat...
but i think if we never flash cooked rom, we havent this problems...
i think everybody who have same problems, have Europ hd2model with ramhack, and with lot of 3rd app.

Not all pal , Im from the Philippines and the same thing is happening with my HD2. Right now, Im just charging it while the phone is off . I phoned HTC Philippines since it is still under warranty and they said, they will need to repair the phone since the problem was the main board as they said.(Once you experienced that the phone heats up even when not charging, they believe it needs repair).
Mine is currently in for a warranty repair for random reboots. Even when at night it was doing it. I'm on stock rom and have never used custom roms. Interesting that when I called support they asked if it had overheated. or if it did it more when overheating - so I think the two must be related as far as HTC are concerned.
Hi there,
I own a HTC HD2 for about 7 months now, using it A LOT. Flashing rom's like crazy and never had any problem.
Recently I've been on a holiday (Mexico, very humid), since then my HD2 is having issue's.
Keeps freezing, screen goes black and then in resets. Often I doesn't boot which means I have to pull out my battery to get it going again (sometimes I have to yank out the battery 3 or 4 times for it to boot again). And yes, of course I hardresetted, re-flashed etc for several times.
Seems a similair problem.
I also experienced that in some cases, my HD2 vibrate's 7 times in a row when trying to boot (like somekind of error message for the HTC technies). Can;t find anything about it on the web.
Any of you guys experienced this as well??
Well I had the same problem.
Got to the point when I had to go back and use my old HD
Took it back to the store and complained.
The guy from the store opened it up, straightened the pins on the battery and it works like new now
Oke, I tryed that also, but maybe they are not straight enough yet. I will look again I hope that's the problem
Hello,
Lately I have been unable to send or receive text messages that contain pictures or videos. The error message is always the same "National access coverage not available."
I called Verizon, on Thursday of last week (1-13), and the technician was unable to figure out the problem. He escalated it to the next level and said that someone would be contacting me in a day or 2. Well it's now Wednesday (1-19) of the following week and so far, nothing!
Has anyone else run into this problem? If so, what's the fix? Any help would be appreciated, especially since Verizon has been no help at all!
I'm using a Moto Droid2 ver, 2.3.2 Rooted and OC'd @ 2.25Ghz
Thanks,
Scott

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, it didn't work. I updated it waited the 15 minutes. When it didn't work I rebooted the phone figuring maybe it needed to be refreshed or something, (long time windows tech, reboot fixes everything!) but still nothing. Just that same message.
I get the exact same error when sending or receiving MMS 50 percent of the time with the first initial try... *228 does not fix this.. verizon cannot fix it either...
OK, got tired of waiting for Verizon to call back. On the phone with 2nd tier support now for about the last hour, so far nothing.
Mine started doing that on mms after using juice defender app and I had to do a factory reset to fix it.
OK, got finished with the Verizon tech, who was very helpful, but we still could not resolve the issue.
She removed and reloaded my data from the server, switched me to another IP address and did a few other behind the scenes things but nothing worked. She suggested doing the factory reset, but I'm ready to give up troubleshooting this issue yet. If all else fails, then I guess I will have no other option.
Since sending MM text's in not a huge part of what I use my phone for, I may just wait for the next release of the software and hope that fixes it.
In the mean time I'll just keep playing with settings and searching Google and the message boards in the hope that someone can come up with a fix that doesn't involve having to wipe it.

I used to use that app, but removed it long before this started happening. I wonder if it left behind some orphan files that are somehow in there wreaking havoc?
Since the problem still existed even running the phone in safe mode, I would think that would not be the case, but anythings possible.
my phone does the same thing with same message... if i try again to download message it will usually come through, but if it happens on outgoing message it will never go through

That's the thing. Since so many people are having the same or similar issue, I just find it hard to believe it's not something on Verizon's side or with their software. This many people screwing up their phone's in the exact same way all around the same time just seem a little suspect to me.
Mine happened 6 months ago. Just reset it and see what happens. All your apps with reinstall by themselves.

Yeah, I guess I'm going to have to try something. I want to make a nandroid backup first just to be safe and then I'll give it a shot.
Thanks.
This is great!
So, I just finished the factory reset (which DID fix the problem) and was starting to configure all my custom settings when the Verizon tech I spoke with called me back. She said that she had just spoken to Motorola and they said it was a known problem with their phones! They are not sure what it is yet, but they are working on it. In the mean time, the only thing they can suggest is to reset the phone as a work around!
I asked the Verizon tech if there was any kind of documentation about this that she could send me, but of course there isn't. And there's also nothing on the Motorola site about the error either, at least nothing I could find.
While it doesn't make the situation go away, it does make me feel better knowing what the root of the problem is, sort of. Only problem is, there is no guarantee that it won't happen again.
i turn airplane mode on then off... works for me
Im having the same problem. I even reflashed to stock motorola, still does it. I noticed if i hold down on failed pics or tap download a few times it works. The problem seems to be triggering the data on and off from the send button.

Yes, I had heard that worked for some people, and I did try that but it still didn't work. Even so, that would only be a work around and not really fixing the issue.

Interesting, since I did the factory rest I haven't had a problem. If it happens again, I'll be sure to check that.
Im looking for fixes for my issues with the DVP.
First off I have 2 apps that wont download or update. I have an ilomilo update will not update unless using the wifi or connecting to the PC. The sims 3 is the same way. Trying to use wifi doesnt work and tends to lock up and needs a battery pull. Connecting to the PC doesnt do anything and havent figured out to sync apps doing so without buying from the marketplace from the PC.
Lately I have been witness some lag and hesitation for some reason, not sure if its going between 3g and Edge. But today i noticed it bad and was wondering if there is any fix for this. To further explain my situation i may be texting a message and it takes about 5 seconds for the first letter to come up then its fine. Not sure if anyone else has witnessed this issue. I cycled the phone off then on and hoped this fixed it. Havent really witnessed it after that.
Is their any fix for my issues I really need my apps to download and clear off because i paid for the Sims 3 and havent even played it yet.
i'd contact Dell and request a replacement, your phone shouldn't lock up when WIFI is enabled, it could be a hardware issue.
im on the phone with Dell now, I told him to send me a replacement.
But he also said Dell is working on an update to fix the WIFI issue whih is suppose to be released this Month.
Lets see if they actually replace my device or deny me, the guy said he had to talk to his manager
Well I figured out one of my problems but its still a problem they have to fix. I found out I cant let the phone sleep while trying to update apps or download big apps over WIFI. Weird, but thats the only way i could download stuff that was in quen

That seems to be a common issue. If I let my phone go into standby while installing an app it will often not come out of sleep.
exactly what i was running into. They need to fix that, i dont want to keep my screen active while while the app downloads
