Hello Everyone,
I have a Cingular 8125 with the original 2.25ROM. Every once in a while (about once a day), when I try to press the power button to return my phone from standby, the screen will not light. The green LED light showing that the phone is powered on still keeps blinking, but the screen will not turn on, and I have to soft reset my phone with the reset button on the side, or remove the battery in orer to get my phone back working.
I have done a hard reset and this problem has not changed. Does anyone have this problem, or seen a fix for it? I am thinking it might be a problem with some of the reg tweaks I have done, or with a program.
The problem programs I am thinking may be contributing to this are Wisbar Advance due to memory leaks, or PPCProfilesPRO. The only real reg tweaks I have done are Molski's Customizing tweaks and the A2DP hack. Could it be a hardware issue? Any help would be much appriciated.
Thanks.
Sorry I cannot help more, but I remember Wisbar Advance doing that to my h6315 WM2003 based device. Then again, it would sometimes do it on it's own too (but very rarely w/o W.A). I hacked it to make A2DP work, and it did not cause such problems on it... but again, totally different device, but similar CPU.
Hi
My XDAII doesn't start as it just hangs at first boot screen and nothing happens there after. Sometimes charging takes place and sometimes, it doesn't charge while plugged with a wall charger.
Any suggestions for this problem?
ya, I can put this ini bootloader mode and I have tried a no. of diff. ROMS (WM SE 2003 and WM5 as well).
Help
yes this is exactly whats happening to me I have a lovely functional XDA 11 which works like a charm THEN I bought a second on EBAY (Stop laughing !!) which sometimes boots sometimes doesnt - sometimes it even starts and goes all the way and functions for up to a few mins then freezes and has to reboot and is then dead as a mullet!! I take the battery out and wait a while and she starts sometimes again sometimes take a few attempts - Help any theories?
I have exactly the same problem with the blank white screen after the o2 splash.
But in addition, I get screen flicker and fuzziness on the occassion that I DO get it to work (after leaving the battery out all night).
same problem i am with u

There are some tips and tricks to stop freezing and hanging. One key one is to put it into sleep mode yourself by pressing the power key NOT let it go into sleep mode by itself. Aside from that have you tried the things mentioned here:

I have try all tips from http://michael-channon.spaces.live.c...ng%2fHanging but problem is still the same. I`m afraid it`s could be a hardware problem. I have put a light rom, there is no additional software in. Ihave also put a new batery, make test with pocket mechanic - get no more ideas. If I swith on hermes in safety mode problem is exactly the same. Sometimes system is stop responding directly after swith on, sometimes it`s take few or about 20 minutes.
Any ideas?
You could try a Hard Reset or changing the rom. Remember to back up everything first, I'd do both a contacts backup and a full backup. That way if you still have the problem after the full backup you can try a HR again but setup everything from scratch.
It may be bad blocks, so you should use MTTY to check this.
If you do decide to upgrade the rom, MAKE SURE YOU HARD SPL 1ST.....
Cheers...
Alter flash to HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O4 my phone often automatically reset,
even I try another version, it same
anyone know why?
PS: anyone has original room of i-mate Jam
I am too. anyone know why?

Me too, I lost my contact list because of that
My first guess would be your batteries are already weak. Try using a newer battery.
I´ve got nearly the same problem, but when my magician is off (sleep) too long it wont wake to WinMo. The only way to make it boot was holding pwr button for few seconds what made it hard reset... But when i formatted my battery 2 times, then used batclear just to be sure, it works like new!
Ps. My battery is AwFuL. It even does not have the front lid!
first is ur battery or your backup battery only,otherwise your phone is completely corrupted..........

Hi all, i just got a Qtek 9090 with WM2003 (ITA). I upgraded to WM6.1, but now it has some strange problems: first of all, when it goes in standby, sometimes it doesn't wake up. If i have to reset it, most of times it doesn't boot (it shut down before WM loads) or i get R: None G: None and i have to reset again (otherwise the phone won't work).
The lock at the boot doesn't happen when the phone is connected at the USB port (i think that's because it charges, maybe it's a battery problem?)
Another thing is that i can't turn it off: if i hold pressed the power button, it deactivate the backlught but the device stays on, and if i make another long press, i get the backlight back again... I had this problem also with WM2003, maybe it's normal?
What do you think? Whan can i do?

Have you make a HardReset?
The correct HardReset, not only reset and press Power button!!!
See in my HowTo Section...
and why not WM6.5.5 see here
yep, hard reset is a good start, but about your other problems:
the device does not really turn off, like other phones. pressing the power button makes it go to hibernate, the display turns off, depending on your settings, it locks the hardware buttons and it shuts off wi-fi, it hardly uses any energy but gsm/gprs stay on.
the device seems to be off, yet the phone is one and you can be called. that is the closest you get to switching it off. when you turn on airplane mode, the battery consumption is even less so there is not really a need to turn it off.
pressing and holding the power button always was for the backlight. many other devices open up a shutdown menu when you do that, that would allow you to turn it off, soft reset, or switch off the backlight, but for the BA, that is not the standard. however, if i read it right, d-two is working on remapping the power button, probably for that cause.
the R: none G: none issue is known and not a problem with your phone, whenever you run out of power or remove the battery for a second, the next boot will be w/o radio (R and most roms don't allow booting without it. that's why you get stuck there and have to perform a soft reset. back in the days of wm2003 i used to remove the battery when the device froze to reset it w/o the stylus, because it didn't matter then. with cooked roms, it is different, just like the booting splash screen or the way to perform a hard reset, many things change on a cooked rom.
the issue with waking up from standby, or the SOD (standby of death) is an issue, that most likely has something to do with a backup, restored after flashing another os, or maybe you didn't perform a hard reset, as stated by d-two. you should do that, now that the device is still new, you have nothing to lose
also, read through the tutorials posted by d-two and myself, whether you missed anything while flashing.
The "real" hard reset is the one i can get by pressing camera + record button and reset? If so, i already did it after flash (i use d-two 6.1 Manila ROM in WWE)
It shows me 3 options, i put on YES "Clean Registry Hive" and "Format Storage" then i press the mail button, the screen become white for a while and the next boot al seems to be ok.
It seems, because after some time i get again the "standby of death" and, if i press the reset button, the most of time it won't boot up again (it turns off before i can get to WM), if it works phone doesn't. All these boot problem can be avoided by connecting the phone to the usb cradle, so maybe it's also a battery problem, i think...
@ d-two: i'll try your new ROM, however before i've tried your 6.1 ROM
I've already read your guide because i've got Windows 7 and i couldn't flash without your tutorial
NEWS: installed d-two new ROM, after flash i made the hard reset selecting the second and the third options, then i get the blank screen and, when viewing the htc screen, it shut down itself like it did before
As always, with the usb connected, it has no problem :\
It can be battery power - battery is old, and it doesn't provide current [A], or voltage drops [V] and phone think, it's empty.
Maybe you can try with new battery, or buy 2 nokia bl-4c batteries and repair orginal battery (somewhere on forum there is a tutorial about that - but use bl4c, not bl5c like in tutorial - bl5c are too thick to fit)

That's what i was thinking (and that's i hope it isn't)... Now with another recharge cycle it seems to be good also with cooked ROMs, i hope it's solved
Maybe you just have to charge/discharge it for 4-5 times, and it will restore it's capacity. Mine BA was turning off when battery indicator was showing ~60-70%, and now I'm waiting for new battery (i destroyed original )
"charge/discharge it for 4-5 times" does not have an effect on Li-ion kind of batteries. This is probably a software problem. When you turn your phone on (after removing a battery) it always shows "None" for R and G, so just press Reset button and it will be ok. I use Reset to power it on Then you can flash 6.5.5 which doesn't have problems, and do a hard reset. There should be no problem at all..
I also got the problem with the stock ROM :\
The R: None G: None error is the less important problem
Got any luck fixing it? I've had similar problems before, sometimes it turned itself off when the battery was at 60% in WM2003. Did you update to d-two's 6.5.5?
Yes, now i'm running d-two's 6.5.5 ROM.
No, i still had the problem Yesterday i called to the assistance service and they said me to remove the battery and after a while recharge it.
I put off the battery yesterday at 16 and i put it again in the phone this morning at 8, i charged it but i still have the problem
This evening i called again and they said me that i have to send it back, i'll flash the original ROM and send it on monday.
That's a shame, i really like this device, even if it's not mine, my sister uses it and she's not a pro user, what a waste
Didn't understand, what "assistance service"? This is very old phone, I just can't believe it has some kind of warranty
I have another battery, and using it the device turns it off sometimes while it's in the stand-by mode! Don't know why, the voltage on it is fine, I have measured it while working...

I bought it on an eBay market and it offered 60 days warranty. It's not official HTC/Qtek warranty, but it doesn't make difference, as long as the device will work
If for you it happens only when it's in standby, maybe you just have the standby of death, the problem Chef Tony was talking about at post 3?

With this kitchen you can look the Vbase32 for SOD!!!
Well, i trust you that your ROMs doesn't have SOD problem, in fact this happened to me also with the shipped WM2003 ROM, it's a real hardware issue
