Apologies if anyone has posted about this already. My XDA IIi has developed an interesting characteristic; it skips a second every now and then, resulting in it gaining about 2 seconds every 10! Does anyone know what is causing this?? is it a virus or buggy software??
regards
Chris Norman
The only way to check that is to run the phone without any additional software, if it still displays these problems then its a hardware issue.
Hi Cruncheeee,
Did you fix this problem? I've just got exactly the same thing. Everything is fine apart from the clock gaining rapidly. As you say every few seconds it jumps 2 seconds.
Cheers,
Mark

Has anyone hard reset to rectify this problem ?
I don't know how to fix the problem as such, but i noticed my XdaIIi slipped out of time every so often, so i got a free little program called SP TimeSync 2.2 that updates my time from one of the atomic clocks.
If your sat watching the clock, in the settings thing, sometimes the clock hangs, then skips to the time, making it appear that it has skipped time, where as it actually just stopped updating the screen for a second or two!
XDA Clock gaining
Hi, I never fixed it as such - just hard reset the device which stopped it. However, afterwards I wondered if it could have been caused by PocketZenPhone (I remembered I'd changed some PZP settings just prior to the problem). May be worth un-installing PZP (assuming you use it).
Cheers.
Update:
I tried the work arounds (SP TimeSync etc) and I got quite good at finding websites with the time on but eventually I gave up.
I never found out what was causing the error, but a new ROM release from O2 gave the push I needed to do a hard reset, load a new ROM and rebuld my XDA IIi
It was first major update and I haven't mastered all the things to backup, I kept my contacts and appointments OK through ActiveSync but lost almost everything else so I'm now adding back the apps I'd grown used to deleting the O2 junk they supply but.....
the clock is now telling the right time again!

Hi guys, I did some searching in the topics posted here but could not find anything.
Got this problem the last few days.
My device (s200 dutch os) is suppose to go on sleep mode after 2min as adjusted in the settings-...well it doesnt always do that sometimes it goes in stand by and sometimes not.
Any ideas what could cause this or how to make it work?
I tried everything (i could think of) but hard reseting so far.
I installed Pocket informant recently and I thought maybe that was causing it but I uninstalled it now. However the prob still remains.
Thanks in advance.
Guys
I am facing a really weird problem which is becoming increasingly frustrating and driving me nuts.
I usually charge my phone overnite using the stock charger. The phone powers off after a while as per the the settings (15 mins I think) and stays like that throughout the night. But in the morning it fails to wake up totally. Nothin works. So, I am forced to soft reset it everytime this happens. This has happened quite a few times now.
Any ideas why this might be happening? This is killing me because the alarms dont sound and the phone is totally dead in the morning.
ps. I am using the stock HTC ROM (1.18, 07/22), on Cingular UMTS.
Thanks in advance.

Dude, I'm getting the EXACT same thing!!!! I'm using using the stock TyTN ROM! I have no idea what's causing it, or even how to fix it. I thought it had something to do with software, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. I need help too!!!!
) .. that's crazy .. maybe this is the next SA ... jk ..
but seriously ... maybe there are more folks with this prob ... let's see if anyone knows any more details about this or how to fix it ..
And the really strangest thing is that this doesnt happen to me in the day .. it powers off and wakes up fine .. but then it's never powered off for that long ..
Mine seems to happen when it's powered off for a given amount of time. It's insanely annoying because I have to reboot, and I hate rebooting the phone.
I've experienced a lot less of this behavior since moving to the 1.20 radio ROM...
I'm at the 1.20 radio, and I'm still having the problem.
I too am having exactly this problem. I have flashed the Cingular 1.34 ROM but it seems that the ROM doesn't matter. (I notice the bluetooth and or wifi lights are still on, the screen just doesnt come back to life).
Hi, you probably already tested this, but your device goes into standby mode with WiFi on it will become locked and unable to power on.
But it has happenned to me this sympton without WiFi connected.
Cheers
check out this search...there are a few topics on this already

Well I used to think there was some truth to the freezing being related to certain apps... and I suspected on mine it was PhoneAlarm causing problems.
Last week I hard reset and re-installed everything except PhoneAlarm but am having freezing if my TyTN is not used for some time (does not have to charge to freeze!)... And yes, I do kill ActiveSync and WiFi when I know I will not be using my phone for a while. My conclusion is that there's more to this and that maybe a newer ROM from HTC will address this - anyone know what the status is on this??
BTW, anybody else having alarms going off constantly on re-boot or MS VC reading out ca. 2 weeks of appointments on soft re-boot?
I still don't think there is a definitive answer on this. I've heard quite a few things to fix it; but I don't really have any of the software that's mentioned. Someone said it was because I had Opera installed (so I uninstalled it), then someone said it was because of the ActiveSync Advanced Network Connection option (I unchecked that), last someone said it was because of SBSH PocketWeather, and to take that off the today screen. Well I'd rather not do the latter, so I'll test these two and see how it goes.
I think it's the today plug-in issue. I hard reset and left off PW and it didn't lock-up for 2 days. But like you, I like it a lot.
So I'll deal with resetting it.
For me, it's just Pocket Plus, Resco File Explorer and WA Lite on the Today screen along with the standard stuff .. really nothin that needs to connect to the connect to the internet .. and still ..
The one that caused the TyTn not to wakeup was Wisbar Advance. Since removing it, I've not had any issues with the pda not waking up from power off.
Ok, what are you using in its place?
Well after uninstalling Opera, and unchecking the check box; I had the problem again! ( So annoying (.
Well i'll post my problem too
I have missed class twice in a week because the phone alarm never rang in the morning. The phone was frozen and i had to reset it in both cases. I always leave it charginf over night and now i'm afraid to turn it off anymore for fear of never waking me up in the morning

guys,
I am suspecting the issue is related to the today's plugin. After a few days of experiments, I believe the battery level reading utilities such as SPB pockets plus or Resco today plugin might be the one we are looking for.
Not only uncheck it, but also un-install it, hopefully, would help to solve the problem.
Mark
I have no today's plugin, just the standard stuff, en i do have the same problem
Give the Fake Server Trick a try, which worked for similar symptoms on the old Axim x51v: http://www.aximsite.com/boards/showthread.php?t=112638
If your problems are caused by the same thing, then this is to do with Activesync launching itself automatically. This in turn causes windows mobile 5 to stop waking up from standby, requiring a soft reset. No idea why.
I did the FST straight away when I received my TyTN and I don't get any of the problems you describe at all. It's worth a go!
Hi guys,
i wondering if anyone of u had this problem.
I always encounter auto reset whenever i use some program.
Like for example
I was watching Youtube, watch half way it will just auto reset itself. sometime it will auto reset a few time b4 it becomes stable. there was once i on google map, same thing happen to me, auto reset. the latest was that i was on MSN, and listening to music at the same time, leo seem not able to take it. just auto reset on me again.
Seriously it is getting frustrating... wondering if anyone out here got solution to it? i realized my phone seem to be quite warm during charging. apparently there a time where i was on charging mode, i on msn and surf net, it just auto reset on me again! Also sometime when i use some app it seem warm to my HD2 also. dont know it is just me or im thinking too much.
I suggest you hard reset your phone and don't install any third party software, see if it resets again.
If it works, start installing third party software one at a time to see which software is conflicting.
you know what. just now my fren called. i was on charging mode, the moment i pick up, it auto reset!
I'm having the same problem and a hard reset didn't help. Any solutions would be welcomed.

I had the same problem with my Kaiser. Turned out the culprit was cheap chinese replacement battery I installed. For some reason the power could be interruped for a moment causing soft reset. This was never happening when the phone was just lying on a table, but every time this happned I was doing someing with the phone. When I installed the OEM battery, this problem disappeared.
but it can't be my batt, cos im using the orginal batt provided by HTC. *sigh*
I'm same problem, hard reset or install new rom is not help (I'm do all think about OS. and software) check in xda forum
h_t_t_p://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=716288
some of problem fix by send HD2 back to HTC. they are replace mainboard and problem gone.
For me can not send HD2 back to HTC. because I'm in Thailand but by HD2 from SIS. Hongkong.
Hope some one can help us to fix this problem.
hi all,
i having my 1st Android phone (HTC Legend), but my set suffering Standby on Death (SOD), not sure if the right term. When it on standby, I not able to wake the phone; only way to remove the battery and on the phone again.
However, during it 'freeze' mode, try calling the phone; won't ring but caller doesn't get any engaged tone keep trying connect tone.
Please advise if any1 experience the above or any steps I can do.
** Try searching the web, only found SOD on Win phone.
Cheers.
Edit/Delete Message
The same thing happend to me yesterday, for the first time (I pulled out battery to reset it). I had a few random resets last few days, but I do use my legend for app development testing, so i'm not sure if i somehow provoked the problem.
Offtopic, but just looking at logcat output of a normally running Legend you get impression that there are a lot of unfinished stuff, especially HTC applications (news widget is terrible)
I'm also seeing the same random resets on my Legend. Not sure what when wrong. I have a bunch of apps installed but I don't know if this relates to any of them.
It happened again just now. Restarts on daily basis now
just make a hard reset
Ok. I did a hard rest. And i don't want to install any apps, let it run in vanilla flavor for 2-3 days and see if it happens again.
If it does, that means it must be caused by one of the apps installed before
I had some SOD's, but after a complete clean and reset to original setting, everything disappeared.
Maybe it was a problem coming from installed software...
clean reset, wiped out everything. reset after 15hrs of up time. i'm going to RMA this thing
Hi all - first post here...
I have not long had my first HTC handset - and I really like it, but nearly every day I get this 'SOD'...as described here.
I had to remove the battery to wake it up again only this morning.
I have noticed, that it only seems to do this when it can't recieve the weather data (under the HTC clock)? the handset never seems to hang etc while it has this data?
Have others seen this? Could it be a bug?
Why not bring all SOD threads to one?
As I see all SOD's are same on all devices.
There is bunch of symptoms but if you have sod than you are experiencing some or all of the symptoms.
General help is to hard reset few times than flash shipped ROM then hard reset again few times then flash your favorite custom ROM or leave shipped, and reset again few times. And finaly set network to GSM+AUTO in Phone band configuration. Or try to change SIM with another network operator.
All of this helped some people but there is many who did not solve the SOD with this nor anything else.
I know I am posting in more than one thread same thing and it is not double or triple or X posting it is just help request for people who could finaly understand what is problem and help us all.
Sory, and thanks in advance.
Weather is not problem on my device, I did try turn it off, disable auto update of everything .... no difference.
Even I leave it connected to USB and it have the internet connection all time and I do not have SOD, I have DIM of death screen dims not turn of and if I disconect it and pres power to go to stand by or to turn off screen I can not power on device until i pull battery out few times - 4 - 5 timesto be precise or sometimes even more.
I got a new replacement unit and it works fine since. I guess my old unit was really defective
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
I have had to have my handset replaced now. My SOD contiuned and then the Mic gave up and no-one could hear me in calls - made it unusable as a phone. I also had battrey issues where the phone wouldn't charge and the battery meter read wrong.
All seems fine with this replacement handset.....
