MDA Pro crashing randomly when composing TXTS - Heeeelp plz!

I've had this problem for awhile now, and i was just thinking it was some 'quirk' with the T-mobile ROM, but recently i've installed the new ROM, and i'm getting the exact same problem, so i really am confused now :/
(I haven't installed any apps, or hacked the device in anyway btw)
Basically, i'll be composing a standard TXT, and the brightness on the screen will go to maximum (as if it's been plugged into charge) then when i come to pressing 'send' it does nothing. Then i close the messaging app, then whatever i try to load, it comes up with a 'this program is unsigned' error, all the txt on the screen does white, and basically everything looks screwed.
If i go into task manager and close the messaging app, then the screen goes back to its normal brightness, but the application errors still continue.
The only way to get around this, is by rebooting the device, but then once it's reloaded, it seems to randomly loose my latest TXTs/e-mails!
Really starting to annoy me now!
Does anyone have ANY Idea what might be causing this, or experienced this before?
Any help appreciated!
Thanks

*bump*
No one else had a similar problem?

OK and another thing ive noticed, when i go to the lock options, even if i type in an incorrect PIN, or even if i click 'ok' it just bypasses the lock screen! How s**t is that!
I've got no idea what's up with this phone, but i'm really pissed off with it now, i'm sending it to t-mobile for their engineers to look at, but im 99% sure that they'll run a few simple tests on it, and declare that it's totally fine, then send it back to me... GRRRRRRRR :evil:

hey same thing happening to me too.
mine too sometimes goes to full brightness while composing SMS. If u then switch off the phone(by power button), it comes up with a message box asking for driver. In the end, i hv to reboot the device.
And the poor part is that it doesnt happens all the times. This has started happening to since I have upgraded to latest imate ROM(I have O2 Exec). I had similar problem with the latest Qtekk ROM.
The only thing i d not installed was 'ms_.nbf' from both of the ROMs,which is actually represent the 'extended rom' of HTC devices.

Ahh, well i'm glad im not the only one!
I'm going to assume it's a hardware issue..... possibly..... because ive had the exact same problem on the past 2 t-mobile ROMs. So annoying :S

why dont u give a try to other ROMs like imate, qtekk. May be, you do away with this 'annoying' problem somehow

Well i've had problems with the past 2 T-mobile ROMs, so i'm thinking that it's not really an issue with the software.. but i really dont know. Have you fixed the problem, or are you still getting it?

Hmmmm interesting
How frequently did you have the problem before? + can you keep me updated if you get the same problem again on this new ROM? Thanks

I used to suffer from this problem at least 2-3times a day. And it was very frustrating too.
Till now, not a single problem with latest qtekk ROM, FABULOUS is the word for it !!
No problem at all till now. Popper, you should give it a try now

Hmmm I might give that a go. Which ROM contains all the network setting information? Was that the "ms_.nbf" file you mentioned?
Thanks

yes, its the ms_.nbf which contains the network settings. In other words, it the one, which represents the extended rom of your device

3 problemes with my Athena, please help :=)

Hello guys,
my 1st problem, the connection to the internet by wifi is always interupted every minutes and I need to reset the wifi connection. It's weird because I've got a strenght signal. It's not comming from my PC because I don't have this problem on my Eten M700.
My 2nd problem, sometimes when I get access to the microdrive, the device just gets stuck and I have to reset.
Third problem, pictures taken with the device have a green or purple tint on dark parts of the shot. Just take a look at the folowing picture.
Thanks a lot for the help ! Long live to this wonderfull forum !
Edit: Yesterday I put the great PK3.0 ROM in my device, but it didn't solve any of the problemes. Though I still enjoy the new rom and really admire the work behind it !

I solved the wifi problem. In Settings->Wireless LAN->Power Mode, I checked the "auto turn off WLAN if not connected" and put it to the maximum value wich is "5" (may be changed in the registry perhalps). Also put the PowerSaveMode to Best Performance (though changing only this parameter didn't help before).
For the microdrive access probleme, I figured out I have to wait at least 30 seconds before accessing the system again. Do some people already faced this issue ?
I could't figure out anything for the pictures problem. Also I know we can't rely on a new version of coolcamera, they stated yesterday on their forum they would not support Athena because of the Imageon chip.

My MD seems to hang sometimes too I reformat it yesterday, so I'll try to wait 30sec next time... I'd really like an upgrade with a flash disk !

Hello EmpereurZorg,
I'm from France too living in Nice (we don't have the right to speak another language here until we do a translation lol). Let me know if it hapens again. What about the color of your pictures ? Does it do the same like mines ?

SMS Problem Solved

For everybody there is update now available on HTC website to solve the probelm of SMS's getting delayed in the out box.
http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=812&news_id=407
This update for HTC HD2 messaging lets you reach out to your friends and family with instant notifications. Keeping in touch has always been very important, and this update delivers just that: fast and reliable SMS messaging.

Sorry I think this has been posted already

Thanks for the repost then, because I missed the original.

likewise. this is much appreciated. Short and to the point, without having to trawl through a massive post

Thanks! I didn't see the other post either

For all we know this fix does nothing to address the sending problem. We have zero confirmation that it does anything.

Correct. We have zero confirmation that it either fails or succeeds. Why not join in with the other people trying it to find out?
It took me a couple of weeks from first getting the phone, to getting the SMS problem. Then, after the ROM 1.48 upgrade I didn't have the problem for a few days.
All my SMS since installing the fix have been sent, and I've received an appropriate amount back, so I can confirm that my SMS is currently 100% working. Whether it will work as well next week, I can only tell you then.

It's easy for me to see this because unlike other people the sending problem happens for me 100% of the time.

Then how can you confirm this fix doesn't work? Maybe you have an other problem. I only heard people telling that they can't send messages occasionally, that's quite different from 100% of the time.

i never had problems before but i've installed this fix anyway, haven't noticed any difference,
the slow loading of conversation sms is still there, hope they fix that soon
for anyone who is having an issue, i suggest starting fresh with the fix, try it see if it works

You should calm down, there is nothing wrong with the PR. Every company does that. Don't expect a hotfix which will solve your particular problem. Others don't have.

That's annoying. Especially considering some users are reporting no problems with older versions of the msging ap installed. It shouldn't be particularly difficult to load a lot of plain text.

For what it's worth, the situation with slow loading of conversations got worse for me with the fix. I only had two contacts where it was slow, after applying the fix it's most (if not all) contacts. I've never had the sending bug, so can't say anything about it. Uninstalled the "fix" for now.

Maybe it was a fix for the number instead of letters when yo have had a longer sms conversation all of a sudden you got only numbers instead of letters.
To solv I have to change keyboard and then type some and then change it back to get letters again.
Is it just me who have had this problem?

HTC published a patch over a month ago.
http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=291&act=sd&cat=all
Will need to run after every hard reset as not in the rom.
M.S

i could set the mp3 as ringtone even without the patch

It is not the deal that you can't, but it has bugs.

I have the same problem 3. I download a patch from HTC Taiwan. But got the software crash two times on MP3 ring tone.

Have you disabled the Single Volume option?
It happened to me when I disabled the Single Volume option, and went away enabling it..!!
It just happened..!!

apply the patch and problem is solved.
I had the same prob and now it hasn't happened anymore since...

Hi, my gf got the same problem. Can you please send me the patch? It's not available on HTC's webpage any more.
Please send me a pm.

I think it has been removed by HTC as there were bugs in the patch which used to crash few other applications like HTC Album. It used to show some javascript error.

I have the same problem. I kinda' solve it in december last year installing the patch on htc.com. It's true that the patch caused other problems (I got errors in the music tab and in media player) but I prefer my phone to ring properly.
The problem is that I've done a hard reset a couple of days ago and the problem began to show again . I can't find the patch anymore on htc site .
Could someone send it to me? Thank you!

Well if you guys still need it let me upload it somewhere then ..i still keep the files. although it does fix the issue, each time you slide towards music tab, it gives some weird code error issue which is why they remove it (emailed them regarding this)

I'm having the same issue, just missed a call from my boss today
If anyone could provide the patch it would be greatly appreciated.
Also I did a research on google and got alot of results where people complained about their htc phones (various models) not ringing. Some think that it has something to do with time.. If the setting "turn the phone off in .. minutes" is on, then the time goes off. When you press the power button after a while, then you see the time jumping from i.e 14.21 to 14.28 instantly.
I'm hoping that this patch will solve the issue though on my touch 2
-edit-
I wonder if it works OK with the default ringtones.. didn't test with those much, changed to mp3 the same day I bought the phone and it has been doing tricks ever since.
That would be great, LacusClyne!

Enjoy guys ..hope it work.

If problems occur after installing htc patch, then be brave enough and flash a newer/cooked ROM and all the above mentioned issues will be gone for good...

@LacusClyne thank you very much for the uploaded file .
Did someone tryed to convert an mp3 song to another format (wav or anything else) and try it that way? Cause I understand this is a problem with .mp3 files...

Galaxy A3 2016 Nougat kwyboard issues and problems, lagging

After the update the keyboard can't follow my typing speed...its so hard to write fast as I did with 6.0. It is very interesting so sometimes It is going ok for a half minute, but after that agin slow...I need a help !!! I tried everything. :crying:

I believe he mentioned reset to factory defaults (at least this will help you get rid of the most problems after the upgrade, including most of the problems with lagging UI)
The lag (probably we are talking about the same thing) will keep appearing as I mentioned even after the factory reset however only during CPU intensive tasks (at least based on my experience), i.e. enabling the network and trying to write a message the same time - during this time all background sync tasks will kick in and CPU would be kind of busy - letters will appear a bit slower and some touches may not be registered. So in this case you could enable network... wait a bit (minute? two?) and try to write the message. The same seems to happen if you start updating the apps from the Google Play and at the same time trying to send a message (or use a messenger).

Which is your problem? The touchscreen don't work fine or is the keyboard? Have you tried to change keyboard? Like Gboard etc?

The problem is the slow. I can write only with a minimum slow because if I want to write faster, the phone cant keep the speed and miss some words. I touch the words but the phone isnt answer for that and miss it. I mean " some touches may not be registered" but sometimes the phone has got the old 6.0 writing speed and it can keep it. Very interesting, but Its so annoying

Same issue to me...
Hello,
I'm totally agree with zsoltie95. I've got the similar issue. I tried other keyboard (G-Board, SwiftKey, Samsung Keyboard...) and the issue persists. Not every time, but very often. I don't have solution at this moment and it is very annoying...

For me A5⑥ does have this minor issues , but I figured out this might be related to software itself, if you really notice the transition speed of 6.0.1 it's bit faster (slightly), however it's a different thing on nougat. What I'm trying to point at is maybe the transition speed makes it no so smooth.
*Just my thoughts , don't mind if wrong.
