HD2 strange behaviour. - HD2 General

I just connected my earpieces (Creative EP-830) and entered the music tab. Then I started to play a song, put it in sleep mode and all of a sudden it starts to skip songs from 1 to the next but it's also fast forwarding every song! Also when I press pause to stop it, it just continues again over and over again when I press pause. Not only this, it also started to call people when I wasn't even touching it. It was just lying on my desk!
I hope someone can help me!
Thanks.

Installed HTC HD2 Music stability fix from HTC support page ?

I'll try it out and report the results thanks!

yo, any results by now?
if i connect other headphones than the stock ones, it occasionally calls the last number i dialed when i put it in my pocket with screenlock on (only when sense music player is active). >_>
too bad i can't recreate the problem since it only happens once in while, but its so annyoing.
could this be related to voicecommand? even when i disabled it, it sometimes reenables itself, when i put it in my pocket.
im running Miri & DINIK ROM v17 (awesome) btw, don't know if it is much of help.

The bug returned but after using the htc music fix again it worked as normal again. So you could say it's working.

Two days ago I had the same issue with my device.
Didn't know about the music fix, but i found the problem!
I changed all the audio-file associations with the help of coreplayer - with the result, that sense lost it's "files" ... with the same behaviour as you described!!!
another problem occured: None of the sounds were played ... after noon i saw that i've missed several calls, tasks, appointments and so on..
if hadn't recognized that, even the morning alarm would've been of no use!!
i was lucky having a complete systembackup - transferring it to mSD, double clicking and configuring some minor settings - and voila my system ran like nothing happened...
in short - it's probably a re-association problem of sense's services with the audio-formats! (yes, i tried uninstalling an rebooting! )

Freezes and no alarms

Hi all
I have been experiensed a lot of freezes lately wich renders my wizard completely unresponsive. I usually takeout the battery or reset with a pen or something.
Also more an more the alarm doesnt go off. This used to work fine. Like this morning, I wake up (late) and grabb my phone, is shows time 0630 althou its like 0700. When I tap the screen it changes to the correct time and all the alarms go off (i have several alarms, due to a serious snoozing problem).
I have WA2 and WAD on it and alot of other nice apps.
Tips hints or comments anyone?
Maybee its just time to clear it completly to get rid of all the junk i installed but I really dont want to.
/d
Alarm Problem:
I too use the phone to wake me up in the morning.I had this exact problem with the stocc ROM and some installed apps. Once I upgraded the ROM I haven't had the problem.
Freezing Problem:
At times it seem like I'll get this problem especially when I hit the bed for the nite. Not sure why but for me I've link the problem to ActiveSync. For some reason that is the only thing on my phone that kills the ram and makes it freeze. Even if you shut it down it will start up again. I haven't had this problem lately since I upgraded teh rom and I perform a soft-reset about every 3-5days. What I did to make sure everything would be ok would be soft-reset of the device before going to sleep.

TyTn freezes and/or does not "wake up".

After searching for ages for a solution I am now about to throw in the towel.
I would so love this phone if I could get my problems sorted out
My phone randomly...
1. Does not "wake up" when a call or text message comes through. When I do switch on, only then do I get missed call notification and text messages.
2. Phone does not "wake up" when the power button is pressed (about 3 times a day) and I have to soft reset. (LED's still blink to indicate the phone is active)
My ROM: 1.35.222
Radio: 1.18.00
I have uninstalled anything which could have been a problem and only have Ewallet installed.... I even went as far as removing two magnets from the pouch.
Pleeeeeeeeese someone, have the magic solution for me.
But have you ensured that you have done these things?

I did two things on the same day that have stopped this problem completely....
1. upgraded to the beta cingular ROM (2.06? - AKU 3.3)
2. installed any apps that will be running frequently to the phone memory (Voice Command, Phone Alarm etc)
I just bought nice standalone LCD Weather-forecasting station with Alarm built-in
I can't afford to not get awaken on time.

Thanks for that but I had already tried all the solutions.
However... I think I may have found the problem.
Although I had removed all programmes, the one thing I did since my last post was to remove a dialer skin I had installed (my last resort). This seems to have made the problem go away (two days with no freezing so far)
Any comments on how on earth a skin could effect my TyTn?
I agree with you, I uninstalled a dialer skin (JPLDialer_Au24_Black from PaulyA) because it was conflicting alot with Magic Button.
The other thing I did was removed an item from my Today Items - Newsbreak (an RSS feed which needs an internet connection). I put it in my menu instead, and this has decreased problems as well.
Things seem to have improved slightly, and ActiveSync isn't opening as spontaneously like it used to.
Mine didn't turn on twice (it wasn't alarm, I manually tried to turn on) and it froze. I then rezlized it happens if you have something sensitive installed on storage, because when device wakes up the storage doesn't wakeup as quickly as the device.
So everything that remains in memory most of the time (today plugins and other stuff) I install on the device, not storage. No freezes since then, fingers crossed.

Oh, oh. Spoke too soon. After behaving for a while it's back to its old tricks.
Phone does not wake up to recieve calls or text messages. Of course I only find out hours later when I switch it on to use it and get 5 text messages and 5 missed call notifications

So many problems with new HD2

Hi
I'm having so many issues with my new HD2 i think i must have the unit they were using for footie practise in the stock room.
Anyway i got my unit from Handtec last week. It has been completely unstable but here's a list of what's happen just this morning...
The Sense music player, previously working fine stops working after i placed some additional mp3s on the sd card - pressing the music icon on HTC Sense results in HTC Sense restarting - every time. Only resolved by a hard reset.
Multiple occurrences of "A problem has occurred with device.exe" , i think generally when i try to turn on the phone connection but i'm not sure of this is always the cause or not.
The phone radio connection goes off and wont turn back on despite going into comm manager and pressing the on/off soft button multiple times.
I press the power button button to bring the phone out of stand-by and it goes back to stand-by a second later, over and over again. I haven't even got time to slide the unlock icon across the screen. Then finally after a number of attempts it will either stay on, or put itself through a soft reset without me having initiated it.
How long does it take for HTC Sense to load on others phones? It can take mine minutes to move from the Loading HTC Sense screen to showing the actual Sense interface.
After a hard reset and allowing the device to fully boot up, i promptly got "A problem has occurred with device.exe" as soon as i tried to turn the phone radio on. this is before doing ANYTHING else after a hard reset.
I then got "A problem has occurred with filesys.exe" when trying to get weather for the first time. then the device shut down. Then it went back to the behaviour of going to stand by 1 second after turning iton. This is all within the first 2 minutes of a hard reset.
I really haven't one anything to this phone. It still has the same ROM that it has when i received it - 1.43.70124 from memory. I would tell you exactly except at the moment its refusing to open the 'Software Information' screen in Settings-About Phone. It just freezes up instead (that's a new bug in the last 5 minutes, woot!)
Does anyone have any ideas? i'm hesitant to put the 1.48 rom on in case i need to return the unit and they refuse due to me changing the rom.
Thanks.
My advise is to flash it with the same ROM version. Maybe the ROM is corrupted. If that still doesn't work, get a replacement.

The Sense Music Player on my HD2 crashes everytime it's tab is selected when there are music files on my memory card. Since I need music on my phone, I disabled the Music Tab and got Conduits Pocket Player instead. Works great, and is fast and smooth.
Never had a problem/error message on my HD2.
I'm also using the 1.43 ROM, got mine from eXpansys.
Try doing another hard reset and see how it goes... It shouldn't be spitting out fault messages after a hard reset...
The sense music player seems to have a problem if you load too much music into a memory card at any one time.When I first got my 16 gig microsd card, I decided to fill it up with music, and when the sense music player tried to scan what was on it, the whole sense interface just froze and I had to soft reset ny phone.
I found a temporary solution to the problem by having the computer connected via ActiveSync and just transferring the files over whilst the sense music tab was open. This way, the program can sorta scan each song as it is being added rather than bomnbarding it with a whole heap of songs at once and causing it to crash.
By doing it this way, I've managed to put around 7 gigs worth of music on my phone. I hope htc fix this soon as well as it is obviously another bug with the phone.
Hey, don't be disheartened; my first set was like that as well. device.exe error on the first boot up, and pretty much your experience. Slow Sense UI loading, unstable device, etc. Get a new set if you can.
You only have one option- send it back
It's patently a hardware or initial ROM fault. Don't bother with trying to flash a new ROM, just get in touch with Handtec for an RMA

Thanks for everyones advice, its appreciated.
Attempting to flash the same ROM onto the device is a good idea, too obvious to occur to me! Out of interest, if I was to flash the 1.48 WWE ROM and it didnt fix anything, would it allow me to downgrade to the 1.43 WWE ROM again? or would the installer scream at attemptoing a downgrade?
It may well be a hardware error though, there's so many things going wrong. But then you would think a hardware error would stop it working at all. Maybe its some dodgy memory... well im going to try flashing 1.43 for now and will wait for advise on the upgrade followed by possible downgrade idea (in case i need to return it - trying to avoid that as im in Oz and trying for a replacement to the other side of the World at Xmas just sounds like a bad idea).
Thanks
stick on 1.43 and just wait until an official update has been released,
Why would you want to put yourself into such situation. Don't mess with the device. If you flash it with 1.48 and fail to downgrade whatever the reason is, you will void the warranty. Flashing 1.43 should tell you if it's a software or hardware error. If it's not a hardware and 1.43 solved the issues, you're free to do whatever you want with 1.48

I also had this problem, found it was nothing to do with the above, there was just one song that it didnt like the file name off. It had % and a few other sybols in it, changed the name it was fine.
Just wanted to update my own thread.
I tried reinstalling the 1.43 ROM completly as suggested and it seemd to solve most of my issues for a few hours then they all started showing up again along with more new ones... but...
I then went and bought a replacement SIM card from my carrier as my old sim was 6 years old. Put it in the phone and hey presto, my HD2 has magically come good! About 48 hours now, and considering i couldn't go more than a few hours previously without having to pull the battery, soft or even hard reset, im calling it fixed!.
Now i have no idea why an old sim would affect parts off the system that are not to do with making phone calls but all i can say is a new sim has solved all off the freezes, glitches, basically evrything. The device is just stable now. So my advise to anyone who thinks they have a bad 'un, at least try replacing your sim before returning it.
Oh and the old camera patch seems to be good as well.
I do love a happy ending.
LOL, windows mobile is never stable, I buy it just for fun.
you might want to edit the title of the thread now that your problem's solved so everyone can learn from your XP

Yep, if there is a foreign letter or some odd character in the title/artist/album of a song, it can cause manila to crash

HTC Sense cant find music after usb connection

First off, I hope this is the right place for this and that it wasnt posted before
Ive got my Leo now since 4 days and have noticed a strange bug. When I have the phone connected the pc via usb and afterwards (after unplugging of course ) try to listen to music in the music tab of sense, it cant find the files it had scanned in its library.
The music files are still on the memory stick and I can see them in the explorer and play them in nitrogen (or any other player) but the sense music tab simply doesnt find them anymore.
This also cant be fixed by restarting sense (switching to standard windows home screen and back to sense)
After a soft reset the music can be found again by sense.
If its of any help: Im on the German Tmobile stockrom becaus, well to tell the truth I was to lazy until now.
Hope you can help me
Mine also does this. Not sure why it looses the music library.
When you connect your phone to the PC via USB Storage mode, it practically disconnects the SD card from your phone so Sense notices it doesn't have the music, cuz it doesn't have the SD card in. So, it kind of sticks to the fact that it doesn't have an SD card even after you disconnect.
Anyway, if you give it a little time, it will be able to play the tracks again, cuz it will search eventually. Disabling and enabling Sense works for me, but again, after enabling again please give it a little time (5-10 minutes) to find all the files.
I know its annoying but...i don't know any solutions.
it has happened a couple of times to me too and I solved it by killing the audiomanager_eng.exe process. When I go back to the music tab, everything works again.
Sorry for reviving such an old thread, but Ive got a new question:
In the newer Sense builds my music is found without a problem after disconnecting my phone from the pc.
The only problem that still remains is that Sense doenst play the last track from where I paused it, but from the beginning. The strange thing is this: When I go to the music tab it still displays the right time where I last paused, but when I press play it goes back to the beginning of the track. This is mostly annoying when Im listening to podcasts.
Is there an easy fix, like changing a registry value or something?

My phone just went haywire

This is weird my phone totally went haywire for about 30 seconds. It started playing my ringtone so I thought someone was calling me. When I looked at the phone, it had the standard lock screen. I unlocked it and the phone showed a fuzzy black and white screen. Then a random yellow page, I also noticed the gps started locating me, around the same time, navigation appeared saying that I need a licence to use navigation. After all that, the phone went back to normal. What happened?
It's been happening all night. I had to put my phone on silent.

Did you ever find out the problem?
IDK about the Fuzzy black/yellow screen, but the ringing and GPS Location could be caused by someone having access to your HTCSense or other phone locating app (Such as lookout, bitdefender) account.
Interesting!, Have You found the problem or solution for it? Dont know about you but the last time my Phone did Something like that when i was playing 9mm game, listening to music and some1 calling me at the same time.
I had this a couple of times
ringtone kept playing and car mode kept launching, very weird, I didnt do anything, no one was calling. the phone was not docked or plugged in.
finally it was gone after I changed the ringtone.
Awfully strange I remember this happened to me when voice command came on whilst the phone was in my pocket.

This isn't normal operating behaviour...I think that if these sort of things happen the ROM is most likely corrupt and should be reflashed or replaced with another.
Clean your USB-port, I had the exact same thing (especially with the car mode), cleaned the USB-port with a dentists tool and it dissapeared (along with a suprisingly large ammount of pocket lint)
this is my proplem too , but only when i am charging my phone , it opens contacts and call them while i am sleepnig , and turn on bluetooth , now i make my pho offline while on charge , but i think it may be charger proplem as it isnt the original one , it is charger of blackberry , thats what i have
