Lately I have had people telleing me they have called. But the phone showes no missed calls. Sometimes I also have calls from friend Ihave as contacts, but the sreen only keep showing Home-screen or just the locked screen.
Anyone with a similar problem and suggestions? I still run the 1.48.40.1 ROM - have had no reason for upgrade, until now??

Are you sure you have signal when they call, If there is no signal your phone wont show anything.
If you are having this problem when you have signal then I would suggest possibly a hard reset and see if that works.
You are right about the signal.
Problem is, to-day I had a call I didn't catch soon enough. It was ringing normally, but when finsihed, the phone showed no missed call, which it should have. So I had a clear "evidence" of some malfunction. But maybe I try a hard reset befor upgrading if no one else has other suggestions - seems a less fearful procedure...
do you have any mods installed like s2u2 or cht? or something similar that deals with calls or shows information on missed calls?
btw a hard reset will delete all your data so backup ( but dont use backups between rom versions)
not sure if this will help...but is your missed call notification disabled?
you can check in many ways, but the easiest is to go to the "Settings" tab in Sense...then choose "Sound & Display", then go into "Notification Sounds" under "Ring and Notifications" and make sure the "Missed call" option is set to "On".
Thanks a lot for the effort. Unfortunately, it was ON.. And it must be, if it does not turn itself on and off, then every other missed call does show up telling me so...

First of all, great job on the special edition ROM. Maybe I don't get why we in general would all want to calculate sun positions or use some of the other zillion apps, but hey... it's still more stable and largely better working than the OEM crap.
However... the blinking message light you can set for SMS, at least for me, doesn't act happy any longer. It certainly will turn on but not off after you read a message. Anybody else have this problem? It also sucks (casually unrelated) that there is no audible repeat notification that a call or SMS was missed. My cheapo $20 Motorola has that feature working great!
Also, my GPRS connection is dead. Don't know where to go on that, it worked after I set everything after the ROM update... for about two hours. Since then, no dice. It'll probably be difficult to get T-Mobile to troubleshoot it considering that it's not really their ROM anymore...
Thanks for any insights!

Indeed, some bugs exist. I also notice that SMS notified flash light can NOT turn off after I read a message. I try a dozen of times, still can't find a solution. So I just disable that function.
Another odd problem, I set the sound for missed call. The funny thing is, the "missed call" tone immediately comes after the "ring tone" if I don't pick up the call. Sadly, the "missed call" tone doesn't repeat any more. How do I really know I got a missed call? :x
try this
http://geocities.com/myppcpe2003/index.htm
try this one: MY|PHONE|PROFILES
it resolves some problems you listed[/url]
So NOBODY cares? No audible missed call notifications...
I have all the latest and greatest, thanks to you guys, mainly XDA-Developers and Jeff!!!
Still, no audible reminders of missed calls or unchecked SMS. Despite searching around all over, can't find any software to make up for this lacking feature.
What's up? No solution? Nobody cares/doesn't mind checking their phones for missed calls and such?

Does the phone still work I mean can you place a call?
Also where are you located?
Yea the phone works fine, it's just how all these are. I've tested four of them, they ALL do it. You miss a call, get voice mail, whatever. There is no provision to get repeated audible notifications like you can on any regular cell phone.
The best you can do is have the light continue blinking at increased intervals.
I've used 3.16, 4.00.5, 4.0016, and now 4.00.11. Same thing on all of them. Radio is now 6.24, was 6.18. Was same thing.
I don't think it's a bug, but a lacking feature.
I'm in the U.S.
Why, can you turn repeating audible notifications of a missed call on?
I agree that both 6.24 and 6.18 are lame and thats why I'm using AT&T's Radio Stack version A.20.10.
Sorry never heard of a repeating audible notification for missed calls though but you might want to take a look at the below programs:

There is a bug on my Qtec 2020(FW:166)-
when someone calls me no signal goes to my QTEC(But the beep signal goes from calling phone)-sometimes signal goes only at the end of the call,and i see a call as missed.
what is it :?:
It is difficult to say exactly what could be causing this kind of problem.
Might I suggest some troubleshooting tips?
1. Backup your device
2. Hard-Reset
3. Try some incoming calls to see if they work correctly.
4a. If 3 did not fix, try flashing your ROM with the newest version.
5a. If that solves your problem, re-install all of your programs and you are finished.
6a. If it does not solve your problem, you may have a hardware problem, contact the vendor.
4b. If 3 did fix your problem, re-install your programs one-at-a-time, giving time for testing between loading programs. Only after you have proven that call reception still works do you install the next program. In this way you determine if a program you have loaded is causing your problem.
HTH!
if I understood you correctly, you have a problem where the Incoming Call bubble doesn't show, not ringing sound when someone calls you. And sometimes, it takes like 5 seconds delay before it shows or rings?
i experienced this after installing some phone related software. i suspected that the system somehow is overloaded, and the memory is somehow insufficient to handle incoming call and notify you in time.
Do you have RingtoneX, PocketZenPhone, IA Caller ID, Caller2Picture, Cell Profiler ... etc installed? What are the phone related apps you have installed? Or perhaps, could you list what are in your \Windows\Startup, let us troubleshoot the culprit.

YES.YOU ARE RIGHT.
From your list i installed only POCKET ZEN PHONE(but i also had this problem before i'v installed PocketZenPhone).
WINDOWS/STARTUP:
AFlashMan
CFlashMan
CheckAutorun
ChgDflnk
IA_Caller_ID(MAYBE THIS IS BUG :?: -but i have not it ins.on my QTEC)
MMReg
NFlashMan
poutlook
stk
TFlashMan
GUYS,Please,help...
So,what causes the bug :?: :roll:
I am running PocketZenPhone also, and do not experience this problem.
Unfortunately, I still believe that a HR is the only way you can prove that the problem is caused by software you have installed and not the hardware. It sounds drastic, but you must start from a clean PPC and prove that it works, then figure out which software is causing the problem.
ok,i'll soon try it.
BUT i wanna hear from chriswo what to do,cos he got the same bug. :arrow:
I've got a similar sort of bug, not sure what causes it though and its a pain,
I cant get the volume slider for the phone to stay above zero, i raise it and it beeps as i do it, and i close the volume control, open it againg and it back at the bottom, If i recieve an incomming call, all that happens is the screen flashes with the incomming call alert but no ringing tone at all?
how are the phone settings set ?
as in ring type ?
and how are the sounds and notifications settings
just checked them and they all appeared to be ok, but i wend back in and changed my ring tone and then tried to change it back and it said
'this ring tone is not working properly, You may want to choose a different one to use.'
Very strange, so i am now using oldphone as my ring tone and it is working perfectly!, looks like one of my ring tones has got corrupted somehow
I had the same problem also
Fix by HARD RESET.
At that time I try to test many Phone edition program. (on XDA 1 2002).
After that everytime when I try to install some new program, I'll backup my data first.
so,i still waiting for chriswo,cos he knows this sort of bug...
whenever i click the recieve calls on my universal, i'll click the answer button.. and realize that it takes a lil longer for it to actually connect the call..
anyone here have the same problem here? any solutions??
tend to find it depends on:
1. THe phone skin you are using
2. Ring tone specific to each user
3. Caller id picture displays
4. Large ring tones
5. Other apps running simultaneously
6. How long since your last rom update
I think you will find that everydody experiences a 1 second to 2 second maximum delay
I am havin d same prob
Disable the skin on the dailer, and use a windows default ringtone. And a lot of free memory is always a plus
how to disable the dialer skin?
I believe it can be done here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Security/Phone/Skin
Then look for the DWORD "enabled" set it to 0
I am not sure about this though!!! You have to check google (like I did, and found this: http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_simpleboard&Itemid=59&func=view&id=5075&catid=36
I have the same when I get a call, but I can live with that. My problem lately has been that when I get an incoming call my entire device freezes. I can press whichever button I like, but nothing works except a soft reset and then I would have missed the call. Has anyone else had this too? I hope it doesn't happen too often or else I send it off for repair (I pay insurance for a reason).

jup, mine sometimes starts vibrating and just doesn't stop.
Soft reset is the only way to get my phone working again

I have the same problem. When the MDA is open, everything works fine. But when the lid is closed, the mda freezes after an incoming call and softreset is the only solution. Any ideas about that?
Could anyone explain me how can i hush up the strange "3 beep" to the end of a received call? Thank you!
It signals that your connection has been lost - if the person you are talking to hangs up first first, your trin will tell you that you lost connection with the beeping, if you hang up first, it will never need to give you that notification.
I looked around in 'sounds and notifications' to try to disable it with no luck. I am not a registry wizard, so I can't help you there - but it seems that a tweak would be the only way to do it.
Thanks for taking the time to read this..
Just wondering if there is anything I can run or enable on my ORANGE branded Touch 3G to show that I have calls diverted..
I very often have to divert to my works phone during the day time and sometimes forget if it is still diverted.. My other phone (works Sony Ericsson) has a symbol which stays at the top of the screen when divert is set..
Any idea's... Thoughts etc...
Thanks Phil
not sure if i got u right, as i am not sure if you and i do understand the word diverted the same way...
but if you ask for an indicator for missed calls, you can adjust the length of blinking for missed calls (start - settings - "sounds and announcements" (i got the german rom).
there you go to announcements and then you change the blinking setting for missed calls to "allways" or "not ending".
I set my phone to send any incoming calls to my other phone (divert).
Actually the network does the diverting but on my other phone (SE K850i) a symbol is shown on the screen. All my previous makes off phone have done similar and I could do with the HTC doing the same..
Thanks....
Phil
If you mean this function or something similar to this:
"Ignore all: This mode rejects all incoming calls and goes straight to voicemail. The phone will stay on only for data access. The rejected calls will be added to the call history log and the standard missed call notification will appear on the Today screen."
This is only possible with additional software (afaik), for example this one:
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/pocketpc-software/phonesuite/
(Free 14 days trial). I use it an it is very good, imo.
It ist not possible to see an provider-call diversion (= forwarding) on your handset (afaik).
The last line actually answers my question totally...
Thanks again for replying.. Phil
