Okay so I think I know at least A solution but I'm hoping that someone here will be able to suggest something besides a hard reset.
I've got a Cingular 8125 a couple of weeks ago. Flashed it to the latest imate rom. I kept it from installing the custom imate stuff but did install some of the Cingular cabs.
Now I'm having a few problems with the phone. It's quite a list.
A) I can't enable wifi at all. At one point I could but the phone locked up on me while I was trying to resetup my connection. I had no choice but to soft reset it. Now I can't enable wifi at all. If I click on it in the comm manager to turn it on it will sit there with the spinning wheel like it's enabling then go back to the same icon with the x on it. I've tried turning flight mode on and off, etc but nothing seems to help it.
B) the phone HAS been locking up. It will just sort of freeze and stop responding. Sometimes I'm able to get to the memory settings in control panel and still have available memory (it's usually been around 16 MB of program memory when this has occured) but even so closing everything will often not help. Even if it unfreezes then it will usually do so not much later and often it just won't unfreeze.
C) sometimes I can't close out the phone application. This seems to happen when Magic Button is running. I click to close it and it goes from the phone to my call history. Closing that goes back to the phone again. I can't get to the Today screen. Pressing the red hangup button would sometimes fix it but usually not.
D) voice command is REALLY wonky using my BT headset (Scala 500). Okay, I know it doesn't officially work with BT headsets and I could live with that. But why does it have to be so damned random?
1) Sometimes pressing the button once will get me the chime. Usually it just gets me a lower pitched tone. If the first press doesn't get it then typically a second within a short time will. Sometimes it takes three though.
2) At one point the phone would usually play my selected ringtone and announce the incoming call over the headset. Other times I would only get the default incoming call sound on the headset and the phone and voice command announcement are over the phone speakers instead. In the last couple of days I've ONLY been getting them from the phone.
3) While typically when I'm using the headset with voice command the feedback DOES come over the headset, sometimes it gives me the confirmations from the phone instead
I think there were a few other flaky issues too but this is the majority of them. Also many of them were present before the rom upgrade so I don't think it's responsible for most of it.
edit: oh, one other thing is that after the ROM upgrade I can't get the default input to stay on anything but keyboard. Even if I change it, I turn around and it's back to keyboard again. I'm thinking, though, that there's a reghack for this?

I have the same problem with you. Can anybody help?
any solutions i have the same problem
Try this: back up your PIM, then flash phone back to OEM ROM (cingular, t-mobile, whatever it is for your model). Then unlock it again (if needed), and flash the ROM again. If it's still garbage, try reading the thread for the ROM you loaded (chances are you're not the first to experience this problem, and the other testers of that ROM may offer solutions). If it's still garbage after all that, consider using a different ROM altogether. CRacing's CR86 Touch HD and SVI's ANGEL are both quite nice, and VERY reliable for functionality.
Hi Guys,
I use TomTom Navigator with earphones when walking around (interviews and the like). There is no way to lock TomTom Navigator and the Today Screen lock plugin stops TomTom updating.
Because I'm walking and have earphones I just want my phone in my pocket, who want's to be carrying a £400 phone out in their hand in London? Problem is I can't find anything to lock the screen. It has to be triggerable from a hardware button and not take focus from TomTom... Has anyone else come across a program that does this?
Thanks
I've found ScreenLock.PPC2003.cab.
This is 99% what I'm after. It locks all but the dial and end keys and the main problem was the locking of the screen.
I'm still after better options if anyone has any, but if not this will do.
Greetings all, Wonder if anyone can help on this one.. we supply mobiles (Orange M600, O2 Orbit and HTC 3300 currently) with our delivery driver software on , this software interfaces with TomTom (currently 6.030) to route drivers to destinations , when the unit goes into suspend/sleep mode (ie the power button is pressed) and then woken up (power pressed again) tomtom minimizes itself and anything else thats running at the time ie our software, anyone know how to stop tomtom from minimizing or how to stop it from taking everything else with it - contacted tomtom support who are (unsurprisingly) a waste of time.
I think tomtom minimises itself by design when you press a softkey or power. for instance whilst navigating if I want to check my email I hit end call and it brings to today screen up.
only thing I can think of trying is in today settings switching off today timeout.
don't think buttons are configurable in tomtom.
hope this helps.
thanx 4 the response - unfortunately this won't sort it - the users will inevitabley press the powerbutton when using the device and this just minimizes everything when power is turned back on - if tomtom isn't running at this point there is no problem.
I have HD with TomTom v7.915 (9196) and MS3.
After a phone call the screen doens´t return to TT.
Any ideas how to fix this.
As I tend to use TTN when I'm driving, and hence on a BT headset, I've not seen this problem.
WM is not always that elegant in handling multiple, windowed apps. Once the main phone dialer grabs the screen it doesnt tend to go away again afterwards so you'll probably find TTN is still running but in the background. A quick click on the Task Manager button shoudl bring it back up again.

Mine does normally return to TT7 but as stated above, if it doesn't the window will still be running in the background and can be opened again from task manager
I'm running WM 6.1 on my HTC Snap. Recently I installed TomTom navigation software. It works perfect, only the screen is turned off after about 30 seconds /1 minute of inactivity. Is there some sort of exception list for the tomtom exe so I can still use it.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I use Garmin myself but TomTom should have a similar setting.. look for a setting that disables home screen timeout so as long as the program is open the screen will not turn off.
Just a heads up. You can download my program here which fixes this problem.
