on/off button doesn't react...

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...

Dude,
You can Hard Rest your device through Clearstore only when the device is running. I assume your device is not powering on, so Hold the Camera Button and the Third button i.e, the Comm button and with your stylus push the reset button. Hold the first two buttons till your get factory reset message on the screen. Once on that screen, press the green button, ie. the call making button. The device will restore itself to the factory settings.
Good luck.

Please help me, nothing happened my qtek s200 is dead i have the same problem suddenly it turned off and never went on again, i replaced the battery and nothing happened just a red light turn on when i connect it to the wall charger. Please help

There are some tips and tricks to stop freezing and hanging. One key one is to put it into sleep mode yourself by pressing the power key NOT let it go into sleep mode by itself. Aside from that have you tried the things mentioned here:
http://michael-channon.spaces.live....BlogPart&partqs=cat=Hermes+Freezing%2fHanging
Mike

I have try all tips from http://michael-channon.spaces.live.c...ng%2fHanging but problem is still the same. I`m afraid it`s could be a hardware problem. I have put a light rom, there is no additional software in. Ihave also put a new batery, make test with pocket mechanic - get no more ideas. If I swith on hermes in safety mode problem is exactly the same. Sometimes system is stop responding directly after swith on, sometimes it`s take few or about 20 minutes.
Any ideas?

You could try a Hard Reset or changing the rom. Remember to back up everything first, I'd do both a contacts backup and a full backup. That way if you still have the problem after the full backup you can try a HR again but setup everything from scratch.
It may be bad blocks, so you should use MTTY to check this.
If you do decide to upgrade the rom, MAKE SURE YOU HARD SPL 1ST.....

my HD froze, hard reset not working

Hi all, first time poster long time browser I checked the wiki and did a search but couldn't find a similar post. Here goes..
Yesterday i tried to connect to this protected wifi at a coffeeshop, but my HD did not manage to connect even after entering the network password. In the end it froze. The home screen was showing, i could feel the vib when pressing the screen, but no action happened. I did a soft reset, but that didnt make a difference... nothing working still, while it is still trying to connect to wifi.
Then I first did one hard reset. I managed to get to the screen where i am asked to touch the screen in order to configure the device. While i could feel the vib, nothing happened. I did a second hard reset, ended up at the same screen, but this time there is no vib when pressing the screen... and still nothing is happening. Same situation when doing a third hard reset.
I am lost for ideas.... Have anyone of you ever experienced something similar and what did you do to resolve it? Or have anyone any suggestions as to what I should try next??

Very bad dude,
what you can do (i dont know if this will work).....Flash your original rom again. it is a kind of a hard reset, but maybe this will work.
can you boot to boatloader (three color screen), and see the text USB when connected to pc?

Hi Kadir,
thanks for your answer.
I am trying to flash my rom using the excellent tool Hard-SPL package from OliNex, but to no avail.... i keep getting error message 202 meaning that it can't connect with the device...

This may sound obvious, but just in case... have you tried to remove the battery when the device is turned off? Is the only way to ensure you are fully turning it off, in case you have some kind of 'static' acting up. I had a similar issue on a PDA and also in my notebook, and was solved by removing battery.

hi,
thanks for the advice. I wish this was all it took, but alas no, i am not that lucky. I am starting to think this is a hardware issue....

can you see the 3 color screen?(when phone is off push power on + volume down button and keep volume down pushed).
if yes can you see it you are now in the bootloader. just chech if you see text usb, this means its connected.
and then flash, no 202 anymore.
do not use hard spl if you want HTC to repair your phone(warranty issue)

Don't you have to disable USB connection in ActiveSync too? Or was that just me?

I found the Flash program killed active sync anyway, but you're right all the guides say to disable it.

Problem while booting my trinity phone

Hi,
I have got my trinity phone one year ago and never had a problem since last week. When starting my phone, it stops on the first screen (with "orange" logo) and nothing more happens.
I tried to reset it without succeed. The phone is not detected by the "activeSync" to make it flushable.
Help please !

my problem is mor or less the same... only that dont apears any image on screen and the green led is constantly on...

I have loaded a long time ago an old version of ROM Gelly.
This ROM worked perfectly to a friend who suggested to do the same with my trinity.
The PROBLEM is that when i try to open the pda it freezes to the first srceen showing the rom version and after....nothing!
I tried to load again Gelly from the bootloader, it begins to run, it runs about 1% then the trinity makes a flash (this means it loses the connection with the pc) and then shows me again the first screen....
Please i need help!

me to. i try install the rom original and my pda is living again.
try this to

hi,
2 things ...
have you tried a hard reset ? (hold both softkeys & hit reset button)
and when flashing:
when you first run the rom upgrade from PC with phone on Activesync, it is quite common for phone to hang at the bootloader screen ...
worry not -
just re-run the upgrade from PC again immediately, without disconnecting or attempting to switch phone off.
(the word USB should be visable on device under the coloured bars)
if you do get hung up at bootloader screen a hard reset should at least get you back to where you were, and you can try re-flash again.
hope this helps,
regards,
Kevin

My trinity won't work anymore...
Hi all!
My trinity wont't work anymore. When i press the ON/OFF-button, the display is lighten up a bit, then the buttons are lighten up. And nothing more.
When i will go to bootloader mode, it is the same.
And when i will to a hard reset, the trinity ask me to press SEND or END key for restore factory default or cancel. When i choose the SEND key, on my display some ridicoulous letters appear, but nothing more.
When i try KITL mode, everything is the same.
Can someone help please?
Because i can't do something on my trinity
EDIT (maybe this can help my helper ):
After some time, the display and the buttons are not lighten up anymore.
When i try to charging the battery, it only works, when the buttons are not lighten up (when i switch on, charging is ok; when the display is lighten up a bit, charging is ok; when the buttons are lighten up, charging won't work; when the display and the buttons are not lighten up anymore after a time, charging is ok)
