So I have been having issues with my voice mail over the past week. Sometimes it would work sometimes it would tell me I didn't have a mailbox on the server.
Today I called t-mobile and they went through all their steps to fix it. My voice mail started working again but now anytime I have any notification icon pop-up (text message, email, missed call) my phone lags really bad and about every minute does some sort of weird half reboot. Screen goes black, has to reload lock screen and all widgets just like when the phone first boots. I was wondering if anyone else had seen or heard of anything like this.
I am on stock JI6 firmware, stock kernel, with the four lock-screen mod, and the circular battery mod. I have not had a problem with either mod for the three weeks I have been running them. T-Mobile rep told me to factory reset my phone which worked for about 10 minutes then gave me the same problem again.
Any help would be much appreciated, I don't really want to go through the process of flashing with odin and setting up my phone another time.

I updated to rom 3.35.651.2 (official rom) about a month ago. I added all my warez and tweeks. Everything was working awesome until about 5 days ago. Now it's all FOOBAR.
I have to soft reset my phone several times a day (more than 5) just to make it usable. Else it just stalls and the screen shows bits of different things thats going on.
For example, on the home screen, i try to open a txt msg, and it shows the body of the txt msg, but the top and bottom bars of the home screen. That's it. It lags so bad only a soft reset will correct it.
I'm not sure what's going on but i read a while back others were having similar issues with the update. Did we figure out if that was a bug or is it just a few unlucky people?
I run memaid to clean it up and it still doesn't help. I was using spb back up but that doesn't work on this rom either, it just hangs although it appears to create a file, and the file is then unusable (the backup).
What are your thoughts?
Just so you have a better idea of how bad it is, i just made a call using one of the spb phone suits. It's the picture calling deal. I click on the tab to show the pictures, i click on the picture and the phone dials and the call goes through.
The problem is that unlike it did before, i can't even pull up the call status screen, which would normally come up on its own. During the call, i can't even switch to it, it's stuck on the home screen.
The call ends, and all you can see is the same thing since the call started, the selected contact highlighted. And it's stuck there!
Any ideas?
thanks
Flash a DCD titan [6.1] rom.
Dunno what you did, but it seems to be the installation [update of registry] that causes the phone to become so damn slow. Custom roms are lean and mean.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking of doing but i'm a noob with the custom roms. I read up on them when I updated to the latest official rom, but i was confused
I guess i'll have to try to figure it out again.
Thanks for the reply.
i am getting some lockups on my hd2.
i have had it for 4 days now and it seems to be getting progressively worse.
it seems to have something to do with texting.
when i text there is a long (20 seconds or more) pause before you can enter text.
sometimes after sending texts it wont go back to the home screen.. the phone then will lockup with only the start menu showing..
at this time nothing works.. i have to reset the phone via the HD2SoftReset button i installed from the HD2Tweak program.
any ideas on what is going on?
I had the same problem as you before. I fixed it by deleting my txt from time to time. So you don't store too many of them on your phone.
thats crazy, i never deleted the messages from my tmo 3g dash and it never crashed
hope they fix it soon with fw update

yea, it's weird. somehow it takes awhile for hd2 to load previous text messages.
its entirely the fault of the sense messaging app.
keep your messages to around 100 in and out and you will be fine,
or disable sense messaging and use standard 6.5 threaded and you can keep them.
not a great fix but still a fix
Ditto! I'm having the same issue - locking up and freezing... Augh!
I do not have any text messages on the phone and I get dropped data connections all day. If I power cycle it does come back. It also seems to have an issue with updating my "Current Location" on the home screen. All of the other locations weather update but the phone just can't seem to figure out where it is.
Any ideas on this one?
thanks
i was having those same data issues i just called t mo and they provisioned it properly. have you done that yet/
Every once in a while for the past month or two, when I receive a call, my X10 will vibrate and ring as normal, but the screen will be blank rather than presenting the caller ID and call answer buttons. Sometimes when this happens, it'll eventually show up, while other times I simply get a FC message regarding the phone app.
In the time since I first experienced this, I have upgraded my stock 014 firmware to 016 through SEUS via Rogers, and then this past weekend I rooted the phone to R2BA023, and yet it still happens.
I have disabled both Facebook and Twitter sync in the settings panel, and have tried changing my ringtone all to no avail.
Has anyone else experienced something similar, and maybe know what may be causing this?
I'm going to attempt some testing with various 3rd-party apps uninstalled, to see if it may be some sort of conflict, but I find it odd this has persisted through firmware updates and complete OS re-install (root).
Hi - Yes I've had this happen too.. not very often, but seems to be when I'm in the middle of doing something else.. Think it was when I was in Handscent SMS when it happened today.
Same it happen to me, i just beat on it until it blink up the damn slide. Which 9 out of 10, i will miss the call thanks to the stupid slide still being as slow as before the update.
OT (so apologies)... my swipe is super fast since the update... Are you running any task killers or anything.. (I'm not...)..

I generally do, but it still pisses me off. I have a feeling it's just SE's version of the phone app, but I can't be sure.
I'm using Phonebook 2.0 as an alternate contact manager, but calls still come through the default phone app, and I'm not sure if there's a way to change that without a custom ROM.

Yeah have noticed this issue sometimes. I am on generic R2BA020 uk firmware.
When the phone rings, the screen lights up but I cant answer cause the screen is a Blank blue screen for like 5-8 seconds. After which the slider pops up allowing me to answer. Never had this problem on the older firmware.
I dont use a task killer or handcent.
Hi there my xda-friends!
Every since I updated my phone to Froyo (official) I've had two problems. I unrooted my phone before I updated to 2.2.
The first one is pretty strange. A friend of mine says that my phone sends him a text with about five minutes delay, which says that I have received the text he sent me. He also has a Legend with Froyo on it, but so does my sister, and she doesn't receive any texts from me (except the ones I sent her of course).
This can be solved by restarting my phone, but it begins sending "I've read your text now"-messages to my friend again after about a day. Both me and my friend have tried to remove our conversations and such, (oh, and I still see the sort-by-time bug with my texts, but I think that's because the messages-app doesn't sort my seconds, only minutes).
The other problem I have is that I can't receive calls after a random amount of days, and I can see that my mobile-internet is trying to connect, gets a connection and drops it after a few seconds, and repeats, seen by the internet-icon in the system-bar(?). Then I know something is wrong with my phone (this time, I wasn't able to receive calls).
But again, this can be resolved by restarting my phone, but that shouldn't be necessary, everything worked in 2.1!
I would like Not to factory reset my phone, if you guys have any tips I could try before I'm forced to trying force-resetting.

I think only wipe can help you

Alright. That's too bad. But now I've factory-reset it, and so far it feels a little snappier than before, and I got the new market-app with the green skin almost immediately, so maybe something was aching up
I looked everywhere for this problem didn't find a topic so here it goes.
I LOVE this phone however I'm having a problem; text input disappearing or not showing up at all when trying to enter information. When this happens calls don't go out and I can't do anything network related. I've tried to type things into to other places as well to no avail. The only hope is resetting it everytime, and it can remain working correctly for 5 min or 5 hours, until it freezes again. I'm stock with the latest update, also running widgetlocker and launcher pro with various other minor apps. Anyone else have this issue or know of a fix? thanks
Still happening, I guess no one else has this issue?
I second you. I have the problem as well when text disappears suddenly as im inputting, and I can't see what I type, until I click send. This happens especially while I am on the Skype app. The only way to get it to work is to leave the conversation and step back into it.
Are you having the issue all over or certain programs?
All over. Can't send a text or call out. Other programs work just fine, but anything that needs inputted text doesn't work
