SMS Issue - Possible Fix - HD2 General

Saw this on the VF forumn site - mine is ok but may help others:
try this...
Go to start, settings. Press menu -> all settings. Next connections. Advanced network. Now goto the fourth tab “SMS Service”. Instead of GSM Preffered, put it on GSM. I did this last night, and since I changed the setting my sms’s are working.

Good idea, and thanks for sharing, but that's been posted on here many, many times, and it works for some, and not for others, but then it works for a while for some, but the problem comes back.
As far as I'm aware, the only robust solution is to switch off HTC messaging.

I told this solution 2 weeks ago. It solved the problem for me too ^^ but apparently, the others didn't try ^^

This solution was posted about 6 weeks ago, but like I said, it doesn't work for everyone, and those that it does work for it may stop working. That's the experience that other users have already reported.

WM6 Password issue

Hi All
I have searched on the forums for a bit of advice on this issue, and it seems to be a WM6 problem (some comments on other xda-dev device-specific forums but none i could find on the shift).
Every so often, my shift decides not to recognise my password, and therefore i need a hard reset. Not good after i spent all the time liberating it! This has happened twice now.
On xda-dev forums for other devices, they suggest you hold the 'on-off button' for 10 seconds after setting the p/w the first time, which will work around the problem. Unfortunately, the shift doesn't have such a button for the snapvue bit.
This seems to be a WM6 issue, which is made worse for the shift given the above issues (losing liberation, no on-off workaround).
Does anyone encounter this on their shift as well? I am surprised not to see it on the forum, so i hope i didn't miss anything. By the way, the solution 'don't use password' is no good for me, since to sync with my work server i must use one - and it comes on every 15 mins maximum without use!
I am intrigued also because i have a new HTC touch dual, and this p/w problem does not happen at all?
Odd. Any thoughts? Thanks all,
Nick
Anyone there
Hi all
sorry to bump this up, but I am just wondering whether the lack of replies since I posted this the night before I went on a job for a week is because of:
a) i am the only one who experiences this and thus noone knows how to fix it
b) anyone who does know has already posted to another thread i cant find?
Sorry to bug, just wondering.
Cheers, Nick
Never had this issue in any wm6 device.

Same here..
Just an odd thought, are you using a long password? WinMo really only likes a 4 digit numerical PIN for password as it is a system originally designed for PDA's and enhanced for mobile phone use. Hence unlock via keypad.
Thanks
Hi guys
thanks for that, no i am using a 4 digit password.
Interesting, it seems to have stopped since i wrote the first post, have taken it away on 2 major work trips and it's all good. However, i have not liberated it again yet. I think i am going to re-liberate it and see whether the issue happens again.
There are definitely postings on some of the other forums here on xda-dev, so it is a known issue, but maybe i am just unlucky....

Musicid - shut down after 3 days ?

Anyone had a problem with Musicid after 3 days?
I had it working fine and then today (about 3 1/2 days after install) it stopped with no warning.
I un-installed it and checked the registry and did a fresh install and it worked again fine.
Curious ... I like the app but it's far from critical.
Anyone had a problem with it after a few days ???
Sorry MODs - "I must not post when drunk, I must not post when drunk, I must not post when drunk, I must not post when drunk, ..."
This post should be in the Themes and Apps folder (?) - still have experienced the weird musicid problem, works after new install.
you cheater i bet you copy/paste that.. ahhahaha
i havent experienced this problem with musicid btw
Well I re-installed (and checked the reg first) and now it works OK - I guess I must wait another 3 days to see if it continues to work
...
my version is working fine more than 3 days later! about a week in fact!

UPDATE: all working fine now after many days.
I suspect the problem I had was down to the crap OS and not musicid.
Could anyone please tell me where I can find this app? I've searched the forums but must be looking in the wrong place, or just being a newbie.

european time jumping 1 to 3 hrs ahead.

after last weeks time fiasco now im having another problem.
the time (uk) seems tokeep jumping forward one hour.
anyone else or is it just me?
had been fine all week after the domestic time change.
after resetting the clock a few times and a soft reset the time seems to be sticking......
im guessing this is something to do with the us time change......
either way, thankyou htc/america for getting me to work an hour early.

Same thing happend to me but I live in Sweden and got to work 2 hours early =)
well at least im not the only one
time is now 3hrs ahead lol
I am now back to Austria and f...... clock starts to jump again one hour forward.
Till yesterday have been in Cairo and it did not happen there for one week. Seems again a Europe problem
ok thanks guys,, changing thread title to european time.
I believe the solution (for me anyway) lies in the homedst and autodst reg entries...... haven't cracked it yet though.
got the same damn issue, i'm on GMT +2, the clock always jumps 2 hours ahead, though the internet syncro is off
happened to me, seems to be ok now taht i have turned off the auto update for daylight saving
Well I thought I'd cracked it........... 4hrs and all was well.............
then............ +4hrs a new personal best
Currently trying this reg tweak -
AndrewSh said:
The way to fix +1 hour is to disable NITZ service:
HKLM/Drivers/BuiltIn/RIL
NITZEnable = 0
TZEnabledAfterReboot = 0
I am not sure that the second value exists in custom or European roms - but it exists in OperatorPKG of Leo TMOUS (in my case).
Disabling NITZ you are to set up the local time manually but after reboots you will get no **** with clock settings any more.

Its the same as the gsm/umts fix posted in other threads except via the registry for people who dont have that option under phone settings.......
One hour in and all is well.......
Also found these cabs floating around.
The one from Dutty is the reg tweak above in cab form.
The DST Update is apparently an official microsoft release.
I cant confirm that I just found it on the forums.
I have opened up the cab though and it is a series of reg tweaks relating to the various settings for different timezones. Nothing malicious
Hope that helps someone.
yep same here, time keeps fluctuating through the day! really annoying, hopefully this'll fix it!
European Time problem
Hello
Hello
I post in an other tread (3-11-10) work fine:
(thx Desmoniac)
For time problem.
I just found the solution in French on French forum :
"Dans : Paramètres / menu / plus / personnel / téléphone / fuseaux horaires ---> v Change automatiquement le fuseau horaire et l'heure."
I try to translate (tks Google)--> Settings / menu / more / personal / phone / time zone ---> v Automatically changes the time zone and time Parametre
It's strange, but all other settings I try don't work.
This setting work (for this time)
@+
Another one with the problem in the UK
When I started looking for a solution I was one hour ahead. Now it's two hours ahead.
Didn't have any problems at the summer change
Ive been using the reg tweak I posted a little while ago all afternoon and Im pretty confident thats its worked.... try duttys cab if your not keen on getting into the reg. It seems to be the most popular solution across the board........
I Had contact with HTC NL about this problem. HTC gives the solution that dimond_cbr gives.
Other problems and this one about the new ROM will be reported to the technical service. So they can make an update.
So as everyone can report this problem and others with the new rom, there will be soon an update.
i solved the same problem using bsb tools. bsb tools have an option"autoupdate time" and it must be unselected.
Same problem for me.
Reply from the support at HTC.
-------------------------------
This is not a fault with the device or its software, your device updates its time automatically from the internet and from your mobile provider.
Occasionally there is a difference in the time from the internet and the time from your provider which can cause the time to appear to be changing when it should be the same.
Normally this will resolve itself within a few days, however, this is very inconvenient so we recommend you disable any automatic time updates on your device.
WM 5, 6, 6.1, start settings, personal, phone, timezones and disable automatic time updates
WM6.5 old Sense: start, settings, all settings, persoanl, phone, UMTS services, automatic time updates
W>6.5 new sense, Settings -> Data services -> Time synchronization -> Untick all here
Sincerely,
Alex
HTC
The same thing here, Czech rep.
I've got the same problem (Poland here).
I've disabled that Time Sync option in the Phone settings AND the Internet Time Sync in the Services tab... HOWEVER, if I turn the Internet Time Sync back on, I still get +1 to the time. So, assuming the option in the services tab is working fine, then diamond_cb's solution doesn't work for me.
Now, it'd be really nice if I knew which server the phone is using to synch the time. Perhaps that server still hasn't figured out that we're on DST here in Poland...
I should also note I'm running the latest version of Energy ROM.
Just the same problem here (UK, T-Mobile, and various 6.5 ROMs) - I thought my HD2 was in need of repair! I installed 3 other ROMS thinking the problem had been caused by a ROM update that I had just completed.
I wonder if this is an HD2 general problem or relates only to some ROMS.
Many thanks to those ahead of me here - as ever XDA forum comes up trumps. I just hope that stopping all service provider and Internet time updates solves the problems.
Today I had the same problem again, with the time change...
What about set that the telephone will update the time for example every 15 minutes?

[HELP] DHD wakes up by itself

Hey,
I have a major problem for a couple of weeks now. My phone just keeps waking up randomly and turns the screen on by itself. I have root and s-off and tried out a few roms. Sense Roms as well as MIUI roms... It does not make a difference at all, so I guess it can't be rom related. I have read a few more posts on the web of users having a similar problem but there was no solution given anywhere.
Also, my speaker automatically turns on when I receive or make a call. These two problems seem interconnected since there is at least one person on xda having exactly the same two issues...
Does anybody have an idea or a solution for this? I would be thankful for any kind of help! Thank you in advance!!!
I've a similar problem a bunch of months ago, my phone turn on automatically, without no logic. I've resolved the problem pulling out the battery for a night, after that the problem disappeared.
I hope that will help you to resolve your problem,
Rodomar705
Thanks, I will try that out tonight and report!
Ok, I tried it out last night, but it did not work
Does anybody have a different idea?

Did you check the date and time once you'd insert battery inside DHD? I think to solve the problem that way, you should leave DHD without battery until the internal battery will be totally discharged. It takes approx. 12-14 hours, and you can be sure only if turning on DHD you'll find time and date set to 12:00am, 1st jan 1980 (or something like that).
Yeah, it definately worked though, time was resetted as well. I turned it in today, hope to be able to pick it up next week. Before, I ran the Ruu to set it back to shipping condition... It still had the same error, so it is definately not rom related...
It is a huge drag without it... Already feeling uncomfortable ^^

Sorry mate!! Just wait for a week, ist not so long time, and you'll get back your phone as new as when you bought first time!! Hope this makes you feel a little bit of joy!!
Ok, I have gotten my phone back on thursday (after one week)...
SO far so good, everything worked again, they even set the proximity sensor right again... Then I rerooted it and put another MIUI on it...
On friday then, I put Vipermod back in and undervolted it by 50 mA... BOOM, the issue came back, I couldn't remove it, so I took the battery out and waited for 12 hours, as you suggested... and it worked... Issue was gone... Then I ran vipermod again and BOOM the issue was there again... It didn't even help to set the mA values back to normal, I had to reset it again by taking out the battery for 12 hours.
So my conclusion is that this issue is directly related to the actual USE (not just the installation) of vipermod... Can anyone confirm? Don't want to put out false information in the vipermod thread without having others to confirm...
need help also

If changing the ROM didn't help then it is an app issue. One of your apps is causing it. Time to look deeper
I have exactly the same issue! Also with the speaker sometimes. Really annoying. If an app is causing it, how can we find out which one? I'm using ARHD 6.1.0, but I've had the issue with older versions of the ROM too (with the same apps installed).

Only way to find out is to test them one by one by reinstalling them one at a time

[Q] Call quality issues resolved!!!!!

Hey all, just letting you know for people that are having the hissing, crackling, popping call quality there is a fix. I am on my 3rd g2 and started threads here and numerous other forums about bad call quality. Called sprint I can't tell you how many times. For some reason, tonight, 11/26, I called again. Tech support did some digging and found a workaround for call issues the g2 us suffering. It was just given to them 11/22. Unfortunately I didn't write code down as I did it because u figured it would be a dissapointment like all their other feeble attempts to fix problem. To my surprise, IT ACTUALLY*WORKED. So all suffering, five them a call and see if it resolves your problem, and please, post back with results. Its not a reset, you don't lose anything. Its a code that gets you into the service menu, and you disable something. As simple as that. Good luck and reply back.
Could it be the fix in the general section disabling EVRC_B? Worked for me.
That's it!!!!! I just don't know the steps to help the people that are having this issue. I disabled it and its like a new phone. Is there steps posted on how to do it for people?
OMGGGGG
