Hey guys. I decided that I was going to try upgrading to the latest radio 1.50 the other day. And after having a few problems with missing calls I decided to go down to the last newest one. Well same problems. So I basically just worked my way back to 1.41 which I was using before I upgraded
Still had a few of the same problems. Not that many.
So now I went up to 1.43 and so far so Good. But I noticed that when I dial my own number it waits an very unusually long time until it starts to ring.
Wondering if you guys have any suggestions. It screwed me over last night as I was supposed to pick somebody up from the airport and never got any calls because of it.
Thanks
I am using
HTC Official WM6 Rom
1.43 Radio
Cingular 8525
Just tried Hard Reset and still same problem.
I've searched the board alot and havent really found this before.
The phone Rings right away when I hear the other phone ringing.
but when i dial the number there is a good 6 second delay until it actually starts ringing.
hrmm... i try to convince myself "if it aint broke, dont fix it" but when i see new radios and roms coming out I get excited, but now this just gives me more of a reason to stop messing around.
This is not a complaint about the "memory leak".
My mogul was acting fine for about two months now. I've done a few things like added the htc home and the better phone app. but nothing heavy. now as of this morning the phone just stops working. the screen freezes and nothing can get it to respond. I've had to hard restart the phone about a dozen times today. the only new thing I have done to the phone is paired it with a plantronics discovery 640. the freezing happens even when i have bluetooth turned off. This is very frustrating. over the course of writing this I have had the phone fail on me three times. this last time it brought me to the home page then became non responsive. What is going on? will flashing this with the dcd rom help? i'm at my wits end.
sounds like a bt issue to me although it would help if you posted your rom version.
there are several new custom roms available that deal with bt.
not to sound stupid but how do i find out my rom version?
EDIT: I've had BT functioning before with my holux BT gps unit for a month with no problems.
when i reboot my phone I get the sprint screen with this text at the bottom.
m 09 p acaaam-4070
b03 r 1.32.00
d 2.09
i hope this helps identify the rom version.

thank you!
sprint rom version 2.09.651.3
i installed dcd's newest rom (1.5.7) and the 1.4 radio rom and everything is working well. looks better than before.
Current Sprint ROM Version?
Does anyone know what the current sprint mogul version is as of 12/26/2007? Mine came with 2.09.651.3 (06/14/2007).
If you goto settings, device information under version it will tell you rom version. 2.17.651.0 is the latest HTC rom... hxxp://www.america.htc.com/support/mogul/software-downloads.html
My mogul was freezing as well. I would hard reset soft reset no matter what it kept freezing after about 10 mins use. I would then have to remove the battery for about 10 mins and then I could use for about 5 mins then remove the battery then only get about 2 mins of use. I went to the Sprint service store and they said they fixed it by hard resetting (which I told them I did already) and they said that they reset it by a different method (whatever that is). Well sure enough as I left the store and got close to home it froze. I was too upset to go back to the store.
I somehow fixed it by changing the Today settings from Sprint Default to Windows default (not sure if this did it) then deactivating Activesync. I think Activesync was the problem but not sure. Either way this finally fixed it.
Hope this helps.
I have an 8125 that I put the new TNT (WinMo 6.1) on over a week ago. Everything worked great. After 7 days of working beautifully with no problems or dropped calls, suddenly my radio quit working, at times showing intermittent signal but never allowing a call or text to go out or in. Then my phone spontaneously restarted and began glitching out (things slowed down, Voice Command quit working, etc.).
I flashed back to T-Mobile 2.26 and everything stabilized, but the radio still didn't work and now consistently shows no signal. I tried flashing various radios, including T-Mobile 2.19 UK, with the same result. I flashed back to Button's ROM, down to IPL/SPL 1.01/1.01, and everything works still except for the radio.
Did TNT fry my radio? Has anyone experienced anything similar? I am relatively new at this and desperate for help.
After some more testing, it turns out that somehow my SIM card was the problem. I don't know if it was related to any of the ROMs I had flashed, or simply because the card was old. Anyway, problem solved. If a mod wants to delete this thread, I say go for it.
hi all,
i have my TD2 now for some months and it already happened several times that it reboots automatically. Not just once, but several times in a row and after 4, 5 or more reboots it comes to the screen to input the pin...
I do not know how this is triggered but it is very annoying!
I use WM6.5 and some user programs like TD2 Tools (2d), MobiReg, NaviComputer, KeePass, Free42 Decimal,...
The TD2 Tools info screen gives: ROM 2.16.404., Manila 2.1.19193517.2, OS Kernel version 5.2.21869
Is this problem known to anybody? Looking forward to your advice!
Not sure what the cause could be but a hard reset mey be the only fix.
Hi,
After 13 months, I'm now getting this spontaneous rebooting for about 4 times on the trot. It can happen mid-call or just whilst it's sat syncing with my PC. The reboot always seems to happen about 10 seconds after Sense has started.
I am on Stock WWE HTC 2.53 and Radio as per below. I haven't changed anything recently but this started happening yesterday. I did think it was connected with my SD card but I've swapped it for another good one of different capacity and no go either.
I have also tried a hard reset. This didn't fix it either as the rebooting started again after about 10 mins. All I had done was reached setting up a partnership and syncing.
I'm worried that my hardware may be damaged, though I don't understand how.
Really worried now.
John
PS My Diamond2 has just rebooted 4 times whilst I type this and it's connected via USB.

I'd have to say that if you've hard reset and are on stock ROM, it would definitely indicate a hardware issue, as if something was triggering the soft reset button. Has the device gotten wet or anything?
Thanks for the reply. No not got wet or anything out of the ordinary. It started just last night whilst it had been sat for about 6 hours plugged into the HTC mains charger.
Looking at it more closely, it seems to happen 5 seconds after the data connection comes up. I guess Sense is checking the weather.
It has done 10 reboots now consecutively but every now and then it just seems to behave. This morning it was fine whilst I was out but it has been having rebooting episodes ever since I go home.
Oh well, I'll wait and see for a while and then panic. No money and the warranty won't be much use after a year........ Hmmmmm going to find the paperwork to check what the warranty actually is.

Try removing your cities in your weather tab and maybe play with your network settings in Phone\Menu\Band
Amazing! I was just about to post that switching to GSM only had stopped the rebooting.
This could only be temporary as I use a lot of HSDPA speed data. I decided to reflash the radio and now it seems fine on 3G. I'll keep an eye on it and report back in 24 hours.
I was thinking back to yesterday. There was a time when the wall charger was unplugged from the wall socket before removing the usb connector from my phone. Could that have caused a spike?
Thanks Bruce for taking an interest and the helpful advice.
Cheers
John
PS Cautiously happy now

It is possible but likely that caused a spike. Shouldn't matter which gets plugged in first, USB or charger.
Hopefully the issue is gone now.
Good luck.
Well, sadly, I spoke too soon.
It was fine all last evening with no reboots and frequent use on 3G.
This morning, after a sitting on standby for 9 hours, it started rebooting as soon as I turned it on to check email. Of course this was where it started downloading the weather as well as email etc.
The switch to GSM stopped it rebooting again, so I now need to confirm this is stable over time and then try further combinations of weather on/off and or older radios. Basically, I'll try anything as I have no choice right now and need the phone, email, web and satnav combination.
My wife has offered to sacrifice her shiny new Blackberry but she has finally joined the mobile email/web brigade and I don't want her to go back to a plain GSM phone. Plus, all my windows software would be written off before I'm ready to do that.
I'll report back if the situation improves although I think it's not going to get any better.
John
Just an update in case it helps anyone else.
On GSM with GPRS data I have had no reboots but shortly after switching to 3G, I end up in the reboot loop.
I have tried new ROM, new radio ROM and new T-Mobile settings. Still the same.
I shall now wait out my contract using GSM until December, at least I can use WiFi at home. I'll then change to something new........ Android, WP7 or even Blackberry!
Thanks for the help. 10ish years of MS pda's have been fun and I've enjoyed playing with ROMs and software but maybe it's time to switch.
John
So, you've flashed back to your stock ROM and with nothing else installed, the rebooting still occurs? Is the stcok ROM pulled from HTC via your S/N?
Progress????
Hi Bruce,
Yes, I have downloaded and tried the original 6.5 ROM and Radio from T-Mobile with the same rebooting problem. Furthermore, I tried some other ROMs before reverting back to the HTC 2.53 WWE - all with the rebooting problem on 3G.
HOWEVER, in doing all this, I noticed it rebooted specifically when the weather connected and downloaded an update. This would happen either manually or automatically.
I have now found that turning Weather updates to manual stops the rebooting UNLESS I actually do a manual update and then it will reboot.
Now, for completeness, I have reverted to the T-Mo 6.5 ROM again and proven that the reboot occurs when the weather is updated either automatically or manually.
This is so confusing as I am effectively replacing ALL the software with a new ROM and Radio but this problem now starts to feel like it is software. Does the weather update do something special on 3G? Something that browsing, Google Maps, email, stocks etc doe not do?
Well, at least I now have 3G...... just no Weather............. SOOOO confusing.
Thanks
John
That is strange. Weather would use the same connection type, just hits a different server.
Also, a typical weather error would only cause Manila to restart or fail to load, not the phone itself.
Flashing the stock ROM would initiate an MTTY Task 29 command that would wipe your flash drive eliminating the possiblility of reminence of a previous flash.
This has me baffled as well.
I found a couple of posts from other devices and it appears to be caused by a bad chip...
In my opinion this could be 'the beginning of the end' of the radio chip. My old Mio A701 did almost the same (not reboot but sometimes freeze) and finally it did not recognized any network and any sim-card; several ROMs tested.
Now it stays in my old car for GPS functions.
But maybe you are more lucky than me...

I've found similar on the Desire and HD2 forums too and was wondering if it could be related.
I'm still fine on 3G with no Weather refresh but checked this morning before going out, that actually performing a refresh did still cause a reboot.... and it did.
On arriving at my destination, 20 miles away, I tried the same refresh and it was fine.
At this point, I was starting to think it may be related to location services and my D2 is checking on it's whereabouts (with cell towers, etc) before downloading the local weather.
Interestingly, my home village, where ALL reboots have happened, does have much stronger signal now due to a very recent new cell tower. It was always 3G but now I get all bars all the time and higher bandwidth.
Now just come home, retested and it's fine! Auto Weather updates on 3G, Google Maps, etc...........
I'll keep a watch and let you know what happens next, I'm sure it's only a temporary respite!
Thanks again
John
Almost same problem with mine diamond2. Only most rarely. Sometimes it reboots once in week, sometimes once a day. I couldn't find any situation manually which causes reboot.

Since this episode of getting my Diamond2 back to working on 3G with no reboots and everything switched back on for downloading the weather etc, it has not rebooted once in 10 days.
I'm very happy that it seems to be behaving properly.
Anyway, just a quick update from a now happy again D2 user.
Cheers

i understand this might be a known issue (radio crash after froyo update). anybody know what to do?
rooted my phone awhile ago... upgraded to Froyo a couple days ago (leaked FROYO.DJ29) and things were moving along pretty well. today while the phone was sitting inactive, it decided to go into airplane mode.
the last thing it did was try to download a google maps update.
i'm completely unable to get out of airplane mode. if i unselect it, it says "turning on wireless connections..." but never finishes that. resetting doesn't help. taking the battery out doesn't help.
in fact, the date on the phone reset to December 31, 2004.... any help would be super appreciated!!
try flashing the di18 modem file. i fixed a couple of my buddys friends epics like this.
UPDATE: i turned off my phone for an hour and when i turned it back on it was working fine.
add it to the bug list i guess if others report similar findings
This happens a few times a day on my epic....I went back to 2.1....ill wait for the official froyo release
Happened to me once over a week ago was a bad flash wiped everything again and reinstalled been running this verson since with absolutly no issues actually I find it better then 2.1 as I don't hang up on people anymore when talking on the phone.
