I think its an issue with Manilla 2.5. Thats why I have that feature disabled.
Are you guys using TP2 in T-Mobile service? I am using TP2 in AT&T, I thought maybe that was the issue! But I guess its the compatibility!
yeah its on tmobile for me tmobile branded as well... does it in all roms it sems very annying i was doing a recording and it popped up stopping my record same with video .. NOT GOOD.. hope someone who knows an answer will respond cus im surprised anyone did at all at this point
It has to do with the bands, if you are on 3g and lose 3g service it switches to edge which brings up the time zone pop up... it's very annoying.
ok well that kinda makes sense its nice to have a reason for its stupidity lol ... so why isnt there a fix ? the kaiser and mogul never did that.. the only thing ive sen was a rom i tried that had in the changelog something about time zone fix or whatever but it still happened on that rom too
This also seems to occur quite often after locking my phone and unlocking it with the pin number. Makes sense after reading this topic why the time zone selection appears after you unlock it. If someone can create a cab fix for this, it would be most appreciated! Thanks.
I am having the same problem. I tried to ignore it but it is getting kind of annoying. I have flashed about 6 different ROMs in the past week and it is happening with all of them. After finding this thread, I tried to make some changes to see if I could get the Time Zone settings to stop popping up and may have fixed it. I noticed that under "Items" in the "Today" settings, HTC Home was selected in addition to TouchFLO 3D. I disabled HTC Home and have not noticed the Time Zone settings pop up since then. If someone else can try this, we may be able to confirm this as a fix for the Time Zone pop ups.
If you go into settings>personal>phone> time zones that should fix the problem. I've done it on all my flashes and it works.
OMG
someeh
been looking everywhere for this fix thank you much!!!
It has been over 4 hours and I have not gotten a Time Zone pop up... Has anyone else tried disabling HTC Home? If so, please post your results.
Since my last post I disabled auto update of timezone and still haven't had one. I was going to flash a different rom because of this, THANKS FOR THE ADVICE!!

i have had a problem that has been plaguing me and my phone for quite some time now, i have asked around and combed search engines for an answer, i have never found the solution, but i have found others who had had the same problem looking for an answer, after all this time, i have just found the solution, and it has fixed it 100%
i thought i would post it here to save the time and hassles for anyone else having the same problem
the problem is that my phone would change its time 1 hour almost every time i would synch it up to the computer, i changed settings on the phone in timezone, and also the settings for daylight savings, i modified the settings using schaps config tool, and hard reset my phone countles times searching for a solution, but none of these methods worked beyond a day or so
it turned out to be a setting in the 'phone' settings 'timezone' tab, tucked away in an odd place, this checkbox was left unnoticed [one could be forgiven for assuming that time settings would be somewhere around the clock section] i guess being in the phone section it 'may' be updating the time off a phone tower or something???
anyway, checkbox is labelled 'automatic change timezone and clock' and this needs to be left UNCHECKED
Almost been a month now and problem solved
i hope this helps out anyone else having this unique problem
p.s. this would happen with WM6.1 Roms and also WM6.5 Roms
This solution has been out there now for about..... 2 years...
You mustn't have checked EVERYWHERE...

i can't find where is the box that i have to unchecked.can you help me?i just bought a htc hd 2
so this happened last night and i thought i fixed it with some tweaks such as telling the phone to get time from the internet.
the issue is from some people just after midnight and i guess for a little while the texts think they are coming from "yesterday" at the same time.
so i have to scroll up a day to find their text.
anyone hear of this?
anyone with the phone have this happen to them?
so for the 3rd night in a row is happening.
i just went to phone settings and turned off time synchronization.
but whenever i reset the phone that setting automatically rechecks itself.
i just turned on the setting in sense to get time from the internet and that hasnt seemed to help
anyone that got the us hd2 let me know

Hi folks!
Few weeks ago, my HD started to NOT to show actual time on homescreen.
For example, as I'm writing this, it's 19:23 and my HD shows 19:05.
I didn't figure it out why it does that...
When I soft reset it, that helps, but after 12 hours (or so) it starts to do it again...
I did search for the solution, but without success...

That's exactly the same problem happen with my HD. Even I already flashed my ROM.
Anybody can help.....?
@ksunarko - do you get this straight after the flash? Or after you've set the phone up, installed the apps you want etc?
It could be an app you both have installed which is causing a problem... I've not heard of the issue from others though.
Although, recently my phone has twice shown the time as 00:00 on the wm6.5 lock screen, Manila is OK though. Soft-booting sorts it out each time. It's been alright for a couple of days though.
Problem report
Lately I'm having this problem too. Mine stays two hours behind. 2 hours that make the diference for my time zone. So I've synced my location and that did the trick. It changed my time zone back in the clock settings and corrected the actual time. But still this is a problem, because if this happens over night and you have set a wake up alarm in the morning for a important meeting you ain't gonna make it...
I recon there is a registry setting that defines your default timezone, so if you change that to your time zone should do the trick... I think .
Also,
I'm not sure if it's related but, since this started happening I'm having signal issues sometimes I can't make myself clear to the other person when talking. It's always braking up so I have to ask if he/she understood.
Also I was keeping it only on the gsm band to save some battery... and I figured it could be operator related or that something's gone wrong with GSM signal thingamagig so i've changed that to auto band (3g+GSM).
Should I worry, is my HD a gonner should I sell it, get a newer model...
What do you think abuot it?
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

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

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.
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...

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
