Anybody else had this problem? Third time this has happened to me now, alarm just isn't going off!
A soft reset always fixes it but doesn't solve the problem, a month down the line, it will do it again! I have even tested it by setting it a minute ahead and watched the phone, it does absolutely nada!
Am I the only one with this problem? Running 1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE (From HTC)

No, you're not. I've had the same issue. I've checked to make sure it's not been on silent, I've checked to make sure the day of the week is ticked on the alarm configuration....I can find no reason why sometimes it just won't go off! I'm using the same Rom as you, but I had the issue on the older Rom as well, so who knows!

Me too, I have checked everything, ensured the sound is still working and it did it on my old rom too. Annoying as hell.
Dunno, I use gAlarm and never had a problem. But it does fix an issue of most WM devices that can cause this, something about cleaning the notification queue daily at midnight.
I've not had this problem yet on my HD2 but I did experience exactly that issue on my Touch Diamond. Not sure how this helps, but it's not just the HD2.

Had the same problem, until i bought SPB time.. That is an awesome piece of software! fluid, fingerfriendly, beautiful AND working 100% stable!
The above sounds like a comersial i know But i realy am amazed about that software....
had the same issue and a soft reset did fix it
for me it happened because a change in time (daylight savings time change, i have no idea how it knew to change but it did)

I'm thinking about installing this new one. Has anyone done it? Have any thoughts yet? I'm kind of disappointed they removed AIM from there. Nice to have that in ROM. Saves some storage memory.
Anyway, if anyone has any reports on stability, etc, let's hear it.
Also, does this one come with another radio stack?
seems ok
seems ok for now. no radio in the distribution we got (only nbf ).
from my poin of view it's wiser without aim because i can stick up more content suited to my needs.
no stability problems (though only 8 hours )

FYI
The hard reset after bootloader mode has been fixed if you want to count that, its a big plus in my book. 8)
It doesn't appear to be fixed, at least for me. Hard reset after bootlader is still exist.
I thought about upgrading to the new one, but everything's working just fine under 4.0.0.16, so maybe I'll stick with whats working for now.
Then I won't have to reinstall all my apps.

Why not just do a full backup, upgrade, and then just do a restore
Restoring from a backup after a ROM upgrade is not a good idea, because the older files will override the newer ones in-turn causing you all kinds of trouble.

Sorry to hear that mine is still holding strong with no hard setting, call me lucky I guess!

Hi All, i cooked up a .16 ROM in Jeff's Kitchen (thanks Jeff you are a legend).
Only 1 new problem with my device, it's the backlight....seems to turn off after the timeout even when i'm using my device.....strange. Never had this problem before.
I've also noticed that my problem with contacts not opening and having to sort reset the phone to resolve the problem is still evident. This has been with 4.00.01, .05 & now .16
Anyone got the above problems with .21????? I'm going to wait to upgrade, from what i can see the changes in the .?? releases are vendor apps etc.
Cheers
Steve
PS - i was brave and cooked up an exe install, it worked just fine.

The problems I've been noticing since this upgrade are slowness, the occasional freezing, and loss of signal (more so than before). I might try re-installing to see if this helps at all.

After having no problems since Friday, I noticed the same issues happening to me last night...
The backlight turning off on me while I'm using it...a soft-reset solves it.
Other apps freezing resulting in me to do a soft reset.
I never had these problems w/.16, so I'm considering switching back; however, seeing Ronin's post:
I spent about 3 hours with a Microsoft Windows Mobile developer( from Microsoft) and he explained that our suspicions on Themes and hardware and SD resets are correct.
The versions of our T-Mobile and X2 WM 2003 were provided to T-Mobile in the early part of February. The OEMs worked on their versions to incorporate their unique "features" and there is a conflict in the way WM2003 Phone edition addresses memory calls (to ROM or SD cards)and WM2003 function.
The memory calls are typically made once a Theme switch is made. Remeber themes not only change Today's screen, but all other colors in the apps. Somehow, our WM PE overrides the memory allocation on the SD cards, renaming them and causing our erasures. This will sometimes happen when we get an SMS or have a custom ring or sound profile installed or after a soft reset.
So no solution for the issue other than " the lock" button. The default theme is a good alternative, but I suspect we will still have some more erasures related to this memory addressing issue.
Furthermore, it is unlikely that T-Mobile or other OEMs will fix the issue on their own volition...They are having many challenges with stable stacks and custom builds!!!

strange, i started developing problems with .21 yesturday too!
first the internet kept getting disconnected, i thought it was the GPS cozin it. but then at night the backlight started acting up. even when im using the device. a note on that tho, if i play movie clips, the light stayed on! it was a 12 minute clip, it stayed on the whole time, once it was over, light turned off.
also, i notice the gprs internet is extremly slower than b4
i must say, the ONLY thing i like about 2003 is the media player, it has better video rendering, i wish they made it installble on 2002
nothin wrong with that version. heh

I'm with you on the media player AND the slow GPRS...it's r-e-a-l slow. I wasn't sure if it was worth mentioning but your account of it confirms it for me.
great!
I updated to 4.0021. T-Mobile device bought in USA. I live in Europe.
Now I have band switcher, good GPRS connection (no breaks), auto-response.
One problem: some web page said me "you cannot open this page because your browser does not use cookies. please...." blablabla
?
I see this meeasge first time, previously PIE did it (shown) ok. I checked settings of PIE, cookies are running. Any ideas?
You know what, I've just done some connection tests at www.texan.net/speed.htm and I'm currently getting the following connection rates:
81.5kbps, 104kbps, 81.6kbps
I get these readings by going to that URL, and in a 10 minute period I would run a test twice at the beginning, then twice again on the 5th minute, and two more times on the 10th minute, using the 2nd reading each time (in order to get the reading with a cleared cache).
- with these speeds (I'm used to similar readings on my other WM2k3 PPCs and connecting via Sprint's CF2031) pages come up so quick, but on my T-Mobile MDA, running WM2k3 v4.00.21, w/RS6.24, plus my new 64MB onboard RAM from PPCTechs.com and 3 bars on the meter, pages are rendering much s-l-o-w-e-r than what they should.
Going back to either 4.00.16 or even 2k2 is starting to look even better right about now.
Since I upgraded to .21 I do not receive all my calls and do not getting some SMS messages.
I'm testing it until friday and if it keeps this way i'm going back this weekend to .16 which was very very stable and I liked very much.
I've had this problem for awhile now, and i was just thinking it was some 'quirk' with the T-mobile ROM, but recently i've installed the new ROM, and i'm getting the exact same problem, so i really am confused now :/
(I haven't installed any apps, or hacked the device in anyway btw)
Basically, i'll be composing a standard TXT, and the brightness on the screen will go to maximum (as if it's been plugged into charge) then when i come to pressing 'send' it does nothing. Then i close the messaging app, then whatever i try to load, it comes up with a 'this program is unsigned' error, all the txt on the screen does white, and basically everything looks screwed.
If i go into task manager and close the messaging app, then the screen goes back to its normal brightness, but the application errors still continue.
The only way to get around this, is by rebooting the device, but then once it's reloaded, it seems to randomly loose my latest TXTs/e-mails!
Really starting to annoy me now!
Does anyone have ANY Idea what might be causing this, or experienced this before?
Any help appreciated!
Thanks
*bump*
No one else had a similar problem?
OK and another thing ive noticed, when i go to the lock options, even if i type in an incorrect PIN, or even if i click 'ok' it just bypasses the lock screen! How s**t is that!
I've got no idea what's up with this phone, but i'm really pissed off with it now, i'm sending it to t-mobile for their engineers to look at, but im 99% sure that they'll run a few simple tests on it, and declare that it's totally fine, then send it back to me... GRRRRRRRR :evil:
hey same thing happening to me too.
mine too sometimes goes to full brightness while composing SMS. If u then switch off the phone(by power button), it comes up with a message box asking for driver. In the end, i hv to reboot the device.
And the poor part is that it doesnt happens all the times. This has started happening to since I have upgraded to latest imate ROM(I have O2 Exec). I had similar problem with the latest Qtekk ROM.
The only thing i d not installed was 'ms_.nbf' from both of the ROMs,which is actually represent the 'extended rom' of HTC devices.

I'm going to assume it's a hardware issue..... possibly..... because ive had the exact same problem on the past 2 t-mobile ROMs. So annoying :S

I used to suffer from this problem at least 2-3times a day. And it was very frustrating too.

Hmmm I might give that a go. Which ROM contains all the network setting information? Was that the "ms_.nbf" file you mentioned?

yes, its the ms_.nbf which contains the network settings. In other words, it the one, which represents the extended rom of your device

Well that crappy problem has happened again today, so in a minute im gonna install the latest QTEK ROM, fingers crossed
Recently it has been turning itself off for no reason. I also notice if I open and close the phone a few times it turns off as well seemingly at random.
Anyone else have this issue? I hate looking in my pocket to find my X1 off. it has a full battery so what gives?
yer i had this problem a few times.. update to the new R2A Rom.. should fix it
thanks i'm a bit scared to upgrade though. I'm not sure which version to use for US X1a.
OK I have to ask this again. What's the deal with my X1 turning off if I slide the top open and close too quickly? Anyone else have this issue? The phone just straight up resets if I open and close the slider twice in a row while it is in standbye!
hmm, glad....
to see that i am not alone..
I have the exact same problem on my x1.... i am running the Xion 1.1 swedish rom on it so i will try to update to a newer version to see if there is a difference.
maybe it's just a screen energy saving? click power button will call the screen back
hmm
Nah that is not the problem, the damn device reboots itself completely when closing the lid... however mine works if i do it "with care"...
Updated the software in the phone last night and no difference...
Bah!
Solved... i changed the battery and after that everything works swell... bought a new cheap one.. So something was fishy with the original one... China Copys FTW!
Since german firmware version 1.66 my device sometimes stops working while not in use . Only solution then is to soft reset via the button near the battery . I have no tweaks in use.
Anyone else has that problem???
I´m curious since I hadn´t have the problem with 1.48.
no problems here.
flashed 1.66 on 02.02. and no lockup till now. have installed some minor things after flash, softreset once, still running without issues (4th day without reset). on 1.48 i had to sr every day cause of the "sms issue"...

Are you sure ??
I had the same issue til i knodest that i had 2 cabs installed, screen sensitive and vibration cab, now is ok here
i've also a german device - but unbranded. 1.66 firmware runs very good.
maybe you should try to make a hardreset.
good luck
Same here. I've not at all any problems with 1.66 in German. The device runs totally flawless and it seems as if all bugs are gone... In my opinion the device became with 1.66 what it should have been right at the beginning when HTC started to sell it for ~€600,-
I'm kind of heavy-user - I use my HD2 every day more than 3 hours, have installed quite a lot of apps (~30 at least) - have never encountered any problem or freeze. Do a hardreset and keep in mind what you install to your phone - 1.66 itself definitely is not responsible for your issue...

Thank you very much for your suggestions.
I will try a hard reset
there still seems to be a major issue
when you watch the discussion on the subject in handy-faq.de.
I personally do have some trouble with this too.
Did anyone investigate where this could come from?
The device is idle for 1 - 2 hours in the pocket, if you press a button, the button lights are on but no reaction. The only way is take the akku out and reboot.
I am running starbase64 ROM latest version and am getting sick with this.
Any ideas guys?
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...

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
