HELP | TyTN unable to wake up after power off!!!

Guys
I am facing a really weird problem which is becoming increasingly frustrating and driving me nuts.
I usually charge my phone overnite using the stock charger. The phone powers off after a while as per the the settings (15 mins I think) and stays like that throughout the night. But in the morning it fails to wake up totally. Nothin works. So, I am forced to soft reset it everytime this happens. This has happened quite a few times now.
Any ideas why this might be happening? This is killing me because the alarms dont sound and the phone is totally dead in the morning.
ps. I am using the stock HTC ROM (1.18, 07/22), on Cingular UMTS.
Thanks in advance.

Dude, I'm getting the EXACT same thing!!!! I'm using using the stock TyTN ROM! I have no idea what's causing it, or even how to fix it. I thought it had something to do with software, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. I need help too!!!!

) .. that's crazy .. maybe this is the next SA ... jk ..
but seriously ... maybe there are more folks with this prob ... let's see if anyone knows any more details about this or how to fix it ..
And the really strangest thing is that this doesnt happen to me in the day .. it powers off and wakes up fine .. but then it's never powered off for that long ..

Mine seems to happen when it's powered off for a given amount of time. It's insanely annoying because I have to reboot, and I hate rebooting the phone.

I've experienced a lot less of this behavior since moving to the 1.20 radio ROM...

I'm at the 1.20 radio, and I'm still having the problem.

I too am having exactly this problem. I have flashed the Cingular 1.34 ROM but it seems that the ROM doesn't matter. (I notice the bluetooth and or wifi lights are still on, the screen just doesnt come back to life).

Hi, you probably already tested this, but your device goes into standby mode with WiFi on it will become locked and unable to power on.
But it has happenned to me this sympton without WiFi connected.

Well I used to think there was some truth to the freezing being related to certain apps... and I suspected on mine it was PhoneAlarm causing problems.
Last week I hard reset and re-installed everything except PhoneAlarm but am having freezing if my TyTN is not used for some time (does not have to charge to freeze!)... And yes, I do kill ActiveSync and WiFi when I know I will not be using my phone for a while. My conclusion is that there's more to this and that maybe a newer ROM from HTC will address this - anyone know what the status is on this??
BTW, anybody else having alarms going off constantly on re-boot or MS VC reading out ca. 2 weeks of appointments on soft re-boot?

I still don't think there is a definitive answer on this. I've heard quite a few things to fix it; but I don't really have any of the software that's mentioned. Someone said it was because I had Opera installed (so I uninstalled it), then someone said it was because of the ActiveSync Advanced Network Connection option (I unchecked that), last someone said it was because of SBSH PocketWeather, and to take that off the today screen. Well I'd rather not do the latter, so I'll test these two and see how it goes.

I think it's the today plug-in issue. I hard reset and left off PW and it didn't lock-up for 2 days. But like you, I like it a lot.
So I'll deal with resetting it.

For me, it's just Pocket Plus, Resco File Explorer and WA Lite on the Today screen along with the standard stuff .. really nothin that needs to connect to the connect to the internet .. and still ..

The one that caused the TyTn not to wakeup was Wisbar Advance. Since removing it, I've not had any issues with the pda not waking up from power off.

Ok, what are you using in its place?

Well after uninstalling Opera, and unchecking the check box; I had the problem again! ( So annoying (.

Well i'll post my problem too
I have missed class twice in a week because the phone alarm never rang in the morning. The phone was frozen and i had to reset it in both cases. I always leave it charginf over night and now i'm afraid to turn it off anymore for fear of never waking me up in the morning

guys,
I am suspecting the issue is related to the today's plugin. After a few days of experiments, I believe the battery level reading utilities such as SPB pockets plus or Resco today plugin might be the one we are looking for.
Not only uncheck it, but also un-install it, hopefully, would help to solve the problem.

I have no today's plugin, just the standard stuff, en i do have the same problem

Give the Fake Server Trick a try, which worked for similar symptoms on the old Axim x51v: http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showthread.php?t=112638
If your problems are caused by the same thing, then this is to do with Activesync launching itself automatically. This in turn causes windows mobile 5 to stop waking up from standby, requiring a soft reset. No idea why.
I did the FST straight away when I received my TyTN and I don't get any of the problems you describe at all. It's worth a go!

Trinity keeps hard resetting loop !

Hi all.
I've had my Trinity for 3 years now, and all of a sudden, the phone keeps doind hard resets without notice.
I tried to install a different ROM, even a 6.5 one, but this problems keep happening.
Any idea what's the problem??
Thanks in advance.

Anyone??? no one had a problem like this before?

me too
OK,
now I have the same problem.
Screen suddenly get black with backlight on. Only option then is taking the battery out or wait until it's out of power. When this happens, Trinity will start fully reseted next time with every data on on it loss.
And yes, this happens over and over again, so you can really call it some kind of loop.
Good news however, that flashing new ROM would be almost wasted time.
Then it would be even dangerous whilest this happens on flashing.
Also I feel that it does not happen when all automatic power saving options are deactivated. Maybe it happens while switching the backlight off?!
Do you have SIM-Lock? Because I still have and GPS also not installed with oldest Win5 Rom ever (caught on ebay )
Any solution?
Thanks for every idea.
EDIT: I found also this threat beneath. This problems might be of same value.:

Sudden issues

Hey guys and gals, any help would be appreciated because I'm at a loss.
My sons Mogul was working fine for about 3 months now, but last week it started doing something weird.
First problem is that when it goes into sleep mode, it won't come back out, he has to soft reset it every time.
Second issue is sometimes when he soft resets the phone, it will just go into a reboot loop several times until it would finally start properly. The reboot thing would happen sometimes out of nowhere too.
Any ideas on this? Anyone ever run into these issues together and figured it out? I'm really about to throw in the towel because I've searched and only found issues that were partially like mine but nothing dead on like this. I tried reflashing it with the same ROM that's been on there working this whole time but that didn't help.

My noobish, random shot-in-the-dark guesses:
-maybe it's power related, a different battery might help, and/or eyeball the power contacts for dust/corrosion. Colder weather could have exacerbated this issue.
-moisture related, drying out for a day or so in a warm/dry location may help. Dissassemble as much as practical, at least pull the battery & slide out the keyboard.
Good luck & let us know what you find.

HTC Legend suffering Standby on Death (SOD)

hi all,
i having my 1st Android phone (HTC Legend), but my set suffering Standby on Death (SOD), not sure if the right term. When it on standby, I not able to wake the phone; only way to remove the battery and on the phone again.
However, during it 'freeze' mode, try calling the phone; won't ring but caller doesn't get any engaged tone keep trying connect tone.
Please advise if any1 experience the above or any steps I can do.
** Try searching the web, only found SOD on Win phone.
Cheers.
Edit/Delete Message

The same thing happend to me yesterday, for the first time (I pulled out battery to reset it). I had a few random resets last few days, but I do use my legend for app development testing, so i'm not sure if i somehow provoked the problem.
Offtopic, but just looking at logcat output of a normally running Legend you get impression that there are a lot of unfinished stuff, especially HTC applications (news widget is terrible)

I'm also seeing the same random resets on my Legend. Not sure what when wrong. I have a bunch of apps installed but I don't know if this relates to any of them.

It happened again just now. Restarts on daily basis now

just make a hard reset

Ok. I did a hard rest. And i don't want to install any apps, let it run in vanilla flavor for 2-3 days and see if it happens again.
If it does, that means it must be caused by one of the apps installed before

I had some SOD's, but after a complete clean and reset to original setting, everything disappeared.
Maybe it was a problem coming from installed software...

clean reset, wiped out everything. reset after 15hrs of up time. i'm going to RMA this thing

Hi all - first post here...
I have not long had my first HTC handset - and I really like it, but nearly every day I get this 'SOD'...as described here.
I had to remove the battery to wake it up again only this morning.
I have noticed, that it only seems to do this when it can't recieve the weather data (under the HTC clock)? the handset never seems to hang etc while it has this data?
Have others seen this? Could it be a bug?

Why not bring all SOD threads to one?
As I see all SOD's are same on all devices.
There is bunch of symptoms but if you have sod than you are experiencing some or all of the symptoms.
General help is to hard reset few times than flash shipped ROM then hard reset again few times then flash your favorite custom ROM or leave shipped, and reset again few times. And finaly set network to GSM+AUTO in Phone band configuration. Or try to change SIM with another network operator.
All of this helped some people but there is many who did not solve the SOD with this nor anything else.
I know I am posting in more than one thread same thing and it is not double or triple or X posting it is just help request for people who could finaly understand what is problem and help us all.
Sory, and thanks in advance.
Weather is not problem on my device, I did try turn it off, disable auto update of everything .... no difference.
Even I leave it connected to USB and it have the internet connection all time and I do not have SOD, I have DIM of death screen dims not turn of and if I disconect it and pres power to go to stand by or to turn off screen I can not power on device until i pull battery out few times - 4 - 5 timesto be precise or sometimes even more.

I got a new replacement unit and it works fine since. I guess my old unit was really defective
Sent from my Legend using XDA App

I have had to have my handset replaced now. My SOD contiuned and then the Mic gave up and no-one could hear me in calls - made it unusable as a phone. I also had battrey issues where the phone wouldn't charge and the battery meter read wrong.
All seems fine with this replacement handset.....

anoying white screen

Hi guys, this is my first post here and I hope someone can help me please!!
I got my phone 5 weeks no problem till last night,
basically when I am in screen lock state and then go unlock, I keep getting this anoying WHITE screen which coveres the whole screen and only on the top in narrow blue band it say "wiedges setting" to get out of this, I have to press the return button (on the right ) and it goes away , this happens everytime I go to lock position (after it stays in that position for 5 minutes or more),
Also I noticed even DURING my call after about 5-6 minutes through out the call this white screen appears and it ALWAYS goes away as soon as I press the return button.!!
so please tell me how to get ride of this?
if not, how to reset the phone without losing my apps and data? if I do factory reset is my apps will stay in andriod market, or do they also get deleted?
my phone IS NOT rooted phone.
what can I do, this is really killing me, as its everytimes into my face.
Please help me...
thanks so much
ps. is there any way that I can reset the phone to previously saved version! (3 days ago lets say),?

Sounds to me like an app causing this, as it seems it wants you to alter some settings.
Can you think of any apps you have installed since it started happening? It is usually always the fault of a dodgy app when you have issues.
I am not sure you can restore the phone back 3 days if you havent already done a backup.
Restoring your phone won't necessarily help as you will probably end up re installing the bad app once you are done.
I would try taking off some apps that you installed recently or anything you think might affect the screen.
Good luck and i'm sure someone else will be able to help
Biff.
edit: if it only started last night, is there anything you've installed just before it happened?
