Good evening,
I have a big problem: my Touch HD switches off itself for about two months now. Maybe it's a Task 29's fault? I don't remember, but it may have happened since I did it the first time (but I'm not sure).
Sometimes, the phone works the whole day without problems, but today, for example, it has switched off several times. And often after that, I can't switch it on. I press reset or remove the battery, but nothing happens. Only after some time with removed battery, it works again. But even then I have to press the reset button sometimes, because it stucks in the "smart mobility" screen.
Changing the ROM didn't help, I tried some...
Oh, and it seems not to be a contact problem with the battery: I can shake the phone or press on it and it keeps switched on. At the moment, it's working, but don't know how long it will last...
Is there anyone who can help me?
Thank you in advance!
I have same problem did you fix it?

Just bought mij S100 and already a problem. My phone automatically shuts down the display, this is nothing strange. But when I want to turn it back on again using the on/off button, sometimes it does not react (sometimes it does). When this happens, i also cannot receive any calls. I tried to call myself with another phone and it did not ring. It looks like a crash to me. When I do a soft reset it works again.
I have the newest Qtek rom (1.12.00 WWE / 1.12.550 WWE) installed. Originally the phone came with T-mobile software.
I hope someone can help me with this problem.
If there is a problem with the power button, then you can go into Settings - Button Lock - do not lock buttons. This way you can turn on your device using any of the green or red buttons.
hi robbertje,
sometimes i have the same problem on my MDA compact (=imate S100).
on/off button does not respond - display dark.
soft reset resets the MDAc and everything is ok.
then a few days no problems. if this problem occours then more times.
I found out that if my MDAc is in this state and if I pull the SD Card out of the device, the screen is on but frozen. The time which is shown an the screen is not correct. Seems that it shows the time when the device went to the freeze status.
Also battery is very low after such problems.
I used to have it when I first upgraded to big storage. A hard reset seemed to fix the problem. What I found was that the screen would react, but it could be up to a minute after I hit the power button. Same thing when the screen was on, I'd hit Start and wait. After a while the start menu would pop up. This was before I even managed to install any other software so it's a windows bug that's fairly random. I haven't had it happen for a few months now, though.
I think PPCProfiles made the problem. I reinstalled PPCProfiles and it seems that the problem is solved but I will see ..................
Hey, I've already ur problem. It's an hardware problem!
The mess is that, when the PDA is cold (strange, huh?) it won't reactivate, causing to do a soft reset. Mystically, the LEDs are still functioning (I mean, if it's green, it will continue to blink BUT doesn't change for any reason)
The only way to fix it is to send it to the repairing center. Sorry for who is out of warranty.
Cheers,

new ROM?
In this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=25761 it is said a new ROM wil fix the problem ...
Is this possible?
check http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=27956&highlight= too - may not be relevant, but it shows that power button wierdness can actually be the result of a dodgy battery.
remove your battery,and wait 1 day,my problem solved this method...
Hello,
I have a problem with my HTC HD. From time to time it shuts down without any reason. When I press the power button I can see the Windows Mobile starting...
Did any body else had this problem?
Is there a solution for this?
Thank you
perhaps your battery is not positioned properly or sitting a bit loose? Try a post-it (or something else thin) on the back of the battery cover..
Mine shuts down and won't turn back on without a reset every time I'm in an area with no signal, it basically stays off while I'm at work.
if you keep getting these kinds of nondescript errors and it survives a hardboot, basically there are three options left:
1) try to flash a different firmware or
2) take it back to the store (flash back first)
3) hope like hlll some guru here gets an eyefull of your problem and knows a quickfix (slim chance seeing the number of daily new posts here and the typical guru tendency towards development as opposed to a supportdesk)
I'd set my hopes on 1) or 2). Good luck however you choose.
Cheers,
Rick
Guys,
I'm having quite the same problem: the touch HD keeps turning on and off automatically, as if the power button is pressed (but its not).
Moreover, the power button just don't work. I press it and nothing happened.
I have master reseted the phone and also have changed its ROM, but the problem stills.
Unfortunatelly I'm start thinking that its a hardware problem.
I guess that a solution shoul be reassing the power button, disabling it. Is there any app through which I can reassing the power button?
Have you solved the problem? I have a similar prob, my power button doesn't seem to work when i press it, and if i soft reset (through HD Tweak) when it boots I get a warning message saying " Warning your device will power off and you'll lose your data, Yes No".
It's like the button is half pressed all the time.
Couldn't find any info on hard key remapping either.
I used to have a similar problem but it was with the screen....
The screen used to turn off suddenly without a reason but the phone is turned on and I keep receiving calls. After returing back to my Supplier in Egypt they replaced it with a new one after testing it for three days.
I'm using the new one sine 20th of December 2008 and nothing happened again
Well if you guys are in the US (or have HSDPA/UMTS disabled) then re-enable them (that should hopefully get rid of the restarts in low-to-no-signal areas).
Hope it helps
Problem
I 'turn off' my screen by pressing the power button. When pressed again to wake up, I find on a few occasions the time to be completely wrong. Since I don't wear a watch, I rely on my HD for time. It's a bit disconcerting.
Is there a quick fix for this?
I only discovered today that if I leave the power on say for a few mutes, the Touch HD times 'goes' to actual time. Anyone having this problem? Is this issue a fault with my phone?
I had the same problem with shipped rom that came with phone after a month of usage... it was anoying. So i flashed new rom and everything works fine. Actualy I testet several roms after that and this isue was only on my shiped rom.
Hi,
all of a sudden, the display of my HTC Touch HD doesn't recognize any taps any more. Also the soft-keys are not working. However, what is astonishing for me: If the display dims after 1 minute or so, tapping on the screen will bring full light to the screen, hence: the display recognizes at least some kind of fingertaps. Hardkeys (power on/off, volume) are still working, also the device at itself is working like always.
Hard-reset didn't solve my problem, I am stuck on calibrating screen which doesn't recognize my fingertaps... :-(
What I also recognized the last few days. When I activated the phone from standby (power-button), at least 5 times I saw the power-down-selection screen, though I never selected it before... Strange (in my eyes).
Has anyone had similar experiences, is this a hardware failure??
I use energy-rom WiMo 6.5 release. If it's important, I can add the release version.
Thank you for your replies

I had the same problem one year ago, it's like somebody is pressing and holding a point of the screen, so u cant do anythink.
I tried to hard reset, to leave it with no battery for one night, also i tried to put back the stock ROM, but nothing helped, so i just chaged phone.
This year the new phone broke and i tried again the HD and it was working again, but sometimes the problem was coming back.
So i descovered how to fix it...
U have to bend the phone a little bit... REALLY
U have to bend the phone holding it with 2 hads and pressing with your fingers on the side of the camera in the middle of the phone, I know is not so nice but solved the problem for me.
So remember, bend it pressing on the back of the phone, NOT ON THE SCREEN
Good luck
OMG don't bent phone! You might destroy motherboard! Probably your digitizer is dying, replace it as they're cheap. Motherboards are not.
Hi All,
My OPO2 becomes not responsive at all after keeping the screen off for more than 1-2 seconds.
Turning on and off the screen fast works well.
It is not really powered off because:
1. I can call to it, but there is no ring and no option to answer.
2. In order to turn it back on, I must long press the power button.
If I keep the screen on the phone works just fine for long hours.
I've tried factory reset, and even switched the stock OS with CM - and the issue reoccurred.
Happening only when unplugged.
Any ideas what else I can try?
Appreciate very much the help.
Same happened with my other Android device it would go unresponsive after I lock the screen I think it is a hardware related may be your proximity sensor is faulty check with service center.

Full wipe and try reflashing stock oxygen os 3.0.2 it may solve ur problam
Solved!
Hi,
Actually I had the capacitive buttons and the home button not working at all either,
so in this case it came into my mind that they may cause this issue to happen.
I have simply disconnected them both from the motherboard and the problem solved!
Obviously, replacing them is an additional option.
Thank you everyone for the help
