Weird issue - Touch HD General

Hi all,
When the screen is locked, is it still possible to accidentally dial a number. Today my phone self-dialed a certain phone number a few times without me knowing. I normally have the screen locked so I thought maybe it was my headset that was redialing since it has that feature. The weird thing though is that it's not always the last phone number that was dialed or received that is called so a simple re-dial activation can't be the issue. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ho'okani

I've has similar issues. only happens when I am connected via bluetooth. But both my headset and my car do it. I will randomly dial out number, very disturbing while i am driving. It does not happen often, and it usually is the last number called or recieved, but not always. I have had this happen on several diffeent roms now. the only thing I can think of would be something from the bluetooth stack.

ducktat, were you able to figure out what was happening and solve the issue?

I had a problem like that on my Touch Pro. It turned out to be the Rom I had installed enabled wake up with new text messages. So after I received a text, my phone would be unlocked and then pocket dial people.... On second thought, I wasn't "locking" my phone, just manually rutting it to sleep

Don't think that's my problem. When I look at my phone after this happens, the screen is locked however it is sometimes on a contact screen but not necessarily the contact I called.
Thanks,

Flashed to two different ROMs. problem did not happen with either. Running the latest energy ROM now, flawlessly. It does seem like a ROM issue.

Phone application (radio?) not responding!

Hi,
On my XDAII (1.72) I sometimes experience a not responding phone/SMS application or radio stack.
People trying to call me are instantly redirected to the voicemail, and if I try to make eiter a call or send a text message, respectively the phone application is stalling or the SMS 'Send' button stays in the 'pressed' state.
Soft-resetting the phone or toggling the 'turn off radio' function re-establishes the radio.
Does anyone knows of a solution?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated and possibly rewarded with a 6-pack Heineken beer
weird, mines just done the same thing. I sent an sms and nothing. I was then taken to the phone screen and it said something like invalid sim something.
I'm wondering if the sim card is not locked in place. I was fiddling around with mine yesterday and maybe forgot to lock the sim card in place.
Just a thought but maybe worth checking :wink:
what radio version do you have ? I recently have the problem that when people call me, the ringtone goes for about 2 seconds, then restarts, etc.
Meanwhile I can do nothing ( green button don't work) . When the caller hangs up my phone returns to the normal state.
I use radio 1.18. Thinking of downgrading to 1.17 which people say is more stable.

Hello folks,
I have the same problem now for a week... It's driving me crazy... At
some point in time during the night or the day my Qtek2020 gets weird.
The result is that people trying to call me can't connect but to viocemail,
and I can't receive SMS. The only way I can see that I am having this
problem is that whenever I try to send a SMS I get a message "your SMS
cannot be sent", and if I try to make a call, the phone seems to dial out
normally the first second, but then the DIAL-button (which is color-less)
becomes green again...
Please, if someone knows what's wrong or if someone had the same
problem and solved without having to default the whole thing, please
let me know what is the solution.. It is really annoying, so I now have
to randomly reset my phone throughout the day.
PS: my battery is now on 4% so I have to look for my charger, and
after that I can supply with info about radio-version etc. I am running
WM2003 by the way, and I've had no problems like this before, this
unit has been working fine until now. I guess it's a sw-bug? And I
am also wondering if this problem occurs whenever I pass a place
with low signal.. hmm, it's so annoying..
Thanks for any help!
Fred
I've been having problems similar to the OP for 2-3 weeks now (found this thread in a search before posting). It's damned annoying, as it means you can't really trust your phone - am I meant to reset every morning, or more frequently? It seems an intermittent problem, in so far as I've been receiving and making calls as normal, and then you someone asks 'did you get my text?'. Gritting teeth, you call the phone from a landline to find that calls are going straight to voicemail. After a soft reset all missing texts are received immediately, and calls can again be received.
When in this state other PDA functions seem to work as normal. However, I suspect that the power display is "suspended" too. On performing a soft reset after experiencing this problem today, I immediately got "your battery is extremely low", whereas before the reset I recall it was around 50% (vBar image). As others have stated, one clue that not all is well is that sent texts do not get a "Message sent" confirmation.
I've been racking my brains as to what's changed recently on my PDA. For family reasons I've been making a lot more calls than usual, but I also added TomTom Navigator 5 a couple of months ago, and so have started intermittently using BT. But I don't use Sat Nav that frequently, and this problem seems more prevalent.
I'm conscious that I don't have latest and greatest ROM, etc, but am vary about attempting upgrades without strong reasons.
Has anyone seen and solved this issue?
Have you tried cleaning the contacts on the sim card? After a while dust and general wear and tear can mess them up. Also as it's obviously(?) a phone problem it might be beneficial to call your service provider for a new sim card.
That's what I had to do last week. Wish you the best anyway.
It can't have anything to with the sim card as I'm having this problem with a brand new sim card.

Titan keeps dialing last number called

Greetings all,
I did a search for this, but couldn't find any results. My business partner and I both have Titan's (sprint) with DCD's 1.6.8 rom. Mine works fine with no problems, by my partner is experiencing a problem with the phone. For seemingly no reason, the phone dials the last number he called. He believes it's random, but I'm betting that it's sitting too tight in the pouch and hitting the phone button and redialing the last number. But, to be sure, I wanted to run it by the forum to see if there may be something else. Anyone have any ideas?
Is there a setting to disable the hard buttons to test this idea?
Thanks All,
X2K
any good locking app should lock out hard keys, i use S2U2 and it works great

HD2 freezes after answering a call

Has anyone suffered this problem? Phone rings, I pick up the call, the screen shows connected and starts the call timer but you cant hear anyone the other end. hang up the call and the phone freezes with only a soft reset (taking battery out) works. I have a T-Mobile contract handset and was running the 1.43 rom. I thought maybe flashing to another rom might help so tried the 1.48 update but still having problems. I have hard reset and installed no software but still have the problem. Any ideas guys.....
Since I cant see this problem on the forum I'm guessing its hardware related. I guess I'm going to have to find the original T-Mobile rom and flash it back before returning.
hey, I had the same problem and had even started a thread today. I went for broke and did a hard reset and this has solved it. Back up all your info and hard reset and pronto good to go!!
I wish it was that easy for me. I have hard reset 3 times, the last time I didnt install any software just in case one of my apps was causing the problem.
Everything seemed fine for a day or so then someone called me and it crashed again.

it has happen to me 2 times in one month, first time i was listening some musique some one call and as soon the call ended it Freeze.
Another time the phone was on stand by and some one call, and could not answer the phone just freeze.
Why why why Is HTC brilliant
I have the same problem with my WWE HD2. It seems to be linked to music playback off a slow microSD card. I used to get the bug with a Class 2 16GB card if I happened to be listening to music while I received the phone. After tha call ended the playback would resume normally but after a while it would start to stutter (reminds me of a similar bug in the original Diamond, infact) and eventually stop. After that, the phone would just stop responding to any inputs.
After popping in a Class 6 8GB card the issue is gone.

Interesting you mention listening to music but for me the crash happens when the phone is in standby, caller id shows, then I hit the answer button and the call timer starts but I cant hear the caller. From then on, I can hang up and then a complete freeze. I wasnt listening to any music, the ring tone is on the phones memory not sd card, so not sure about the sd card connection. After my last HR I didnt install any software except resco file explorer and microsoft my phone. I still get a crash.
I was going to return the phone back to tmobile for repair but it sounds like its software related rather than hardware.
Flash,
Have a look at this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=468284 , act on it and see if it helps. Phone lockup in the way you described happened to me a couple of times when I first had the phone; no problems now.

Found solution guys! It was me not closing down the radio before pulling the headset out. I have not experienced the issue anymore.

What do you mean by "not closing down the radio" ?
Daniel
Sorry, I forgot the FM bit. In the past I used to listen to the FM Radio and pull the headphones out and the handset I thought automatically closed the FM app down. Any calls recieved on the handset after this would hang the HD2 after picking up the call. Up until the phone rang the HD2 would perform as normal, it was just an incomming call that triggered a crash. You could even make an outgoing call without a problem!
Now I close the FM app (by using the standbye icon on the app) first, then pull the headphones out. Not had the issue again.
Not solved for us that this happens to everytime... i can reset myphone and try to call right after the reset and it still happens.... I cant make a call or recieve a call at all lol
I had the same problem with radio rom 2.06.50.04 and 2.07.50.27 and miri's rom 6.5 v4.0.
Flashing to dutty's HG v0.8 rom with radio rom 2.07.50.27 solved it.
I had the problem with Dutty's v.06 and now have it with RoMEoS Rom....Don't think it is the Rom, and thought it was an app I isntalled until the OP said that he still had the problem with it even with no apps installed...

You might wanna try some different radio roms. Not really sure if it helps, but I guess the radio rom deals with calls etc.
Hmmm alright I will try that, I didn't think the radio rom's would freeze the phone...but I will try that as soon as I can get home.

issue calling one particular number??

I'm having a strange issue with my nexus one. This started a few days ago. I can not call my brother's cell phone with it. It will ring once and than I hear a beep and it just closes the phone app. I have not had this problem with any other phone number and he can call me fine. Has anyone else seen this issue?
I'm on t-mobile and my phone is not rooted also.
Thanks,
Dave

to rule out other possibilites have you tried to call him from a different cell phone or land line?
I can call him fine from other cell phones and from land lines. It even works if I call him on my nexus one using google voice. I still haven't tried switching my sim card back to my g1 to see if that allows me to call him.
to narrow it down, delete him from the phonebook and try again.
maybe his entry is corrupt and the dialler crashes whe trying to display the incall info.
Tried that as well. I deleted him, called the number without saving it and got the same result.
Going one step further (though I would swap and test with your g1 first if you can) wipe the phone and try again.
Try:
Settings>call settings>additional settings>caller id>network default.
It looks like your brown has some sort of blocked number rejector on his phone.
Update: I fixed it. I finally was home today to play with both phones and somehow I was in the block list on his G1. He claims he didn't even know how he did that. Is there a shortcut or anything that he could have hit by accident or in his pocket?

Can't make calls & won't hang up (HD2/leo)

Can anyone help??
I've had my leo for a while now and I love the phone with one major exception.....
Sometimes when I call a contact nothing happens then after an eternity, 2minutes, the call is placed. I have good network connection and have tried it with and without 3G.
When this error is present I also get a problem whereby I can't hang up.
This seems to be a software problem. I'm on the T-mobile network in the UK. Does anyone else have the same problem?
I couldn't find anything on the forums. I've tried stripping programs/software off and have tried both hard and soft resets. The problem appeared to go away after a hard reset but then appear again weeks later for no apparent reason.
I have the original ROM version (1.43.110.2) and no significant mod's apart from Cookie home screen tabs and a few simple registry tweaks.
Any help guys, I'm contemplating taking the phone back but will I just end up with a reconditioned model? Mine's in mint condition and I don't want to end up with some banged up phone.
Hi, Did the phone work before the reg tweaks and software installation? A new T-Mobile UK ROM was published on the 15th, it might be an idea for you to flash your phone, test it then tweak, if it doesn't work after you flash it then speak to T-Mobile. If it workls after you flash it but not after you tweak then there's your problem Here is the link to HTC's UK web site with the download. I'd guess that T-Mobile will have a link on their support site for it too, somewhere: http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownloadList.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=2.
Hope this helps.
Mine does the same thing. Also mine also freezes when I get incoming calls. After I talk to the other person, I can't hang up. It's frozen. I have to hit the reset button on the back or take out the batter. I have two HD2's T-Mobile US Versions on release day.
I did do some HD2 tweaks to turn on the LED when I get messages though.
I'm going to reset both devices and see what happens. Maybe the old softwares don't work on the HD2 even though it's for WinMo 6.5.
I really hope it work, because I hate to return the unit. It's a beautiful hardware.
Thanks CMMY, I'll try installing the new ROM as soon as I get a chance.
I didn't have the problem before installing software/tweaks; but then again it was only probably a couple of days before I played around with it. After I did a hard reset and reinstalled some software it was working fine for at least a week before the problem re-occured, which seemed quite strange. Today the phone is working fine but will undoubtedly return, the fault seems entirely intermittent.
Daily driver: I also have the same problem when recieving calls. I'll let you know how I get on.
Same problem here, my phone is 3 days old and I have to remove the battery to end most calls, did a master reset and thought that fixed it. Couple hours later it was back at it. I'm using a tmobile hd2. This seems to be a very common problem, hope they come out with a patch soon..
Same problem here, hope it gets fixed someday
same problem
all the same..

I have this issue across diffrent roms, soft reboot does not fix it. just fixes itself after a while
Hi
Did you find a solution to this problem?
I'm using GSM HD2 Europe.
This problem start occurring after a while when I was using 29 Aug Energy rom.
After a reset the phone work ok for few hours.
When to problem start, the send physical button does not work.
if I want to make a call I must use the "phone" from the start menu.
When I try to end the call, the phone software stop responding, but the operation system keeps working.
In order to end the call I must remove the battery.
I when back to the original rom 1.66 from HTC site.
the problem still exist but less frequently.
(by the way the original rom work much slower then the energy custom rom.)
I’m wasting so much time on this phone, and I’m on the verge of giving up .
I will be happy to get some help.
Thanks
Ran S
If you do not have BsB tweaks, but used tweak #44 in "Leo's tips and tweaks", this can cause problems for some.
can't hangup
I found the reason for this problem. (at least for the specific problem I had)
I'm using resco keyboard.
if I leave the Caps lock on after using the keyboard, then the "Send" HW button does not work, and you can't hangup calls.
by opening the keyboard again and releasing the caps lock the all work fine again.
I've also had this problem... Made me consider selling this otherwise great HD2, sometimes even running it over with a car
When I want to make a call, phone just won't dial - it freezes, but everything else works fine (only "phone app" freezes). So, I give up the call. Few minutes later, it unfreezes, and phone starts calling. Usually, from my pocket. Also, after a call, I can't hang up. I often ended up with removing the battery.
I tried everything...
Restarting the phone makes everything ok, but only for a few minutes.
Installing different app, tweaks, etc - nothing.
Removing everything and returning the phone to factory settings - nothing.
Then, I remembered to disable Sense. That was it. I have used the phone without Sense for months, and it didn't happen. Not even ONCE!
Can anybody here do anything with this?
I still want to use Sense because it looks awsome, way better than Windows interface...
You could try a custom rom. I have been using Dutty's latest and greatest without any of the problems you're describing.
