XDA2i - Call Quality?

Hi everyone,
I have had my XDA2i for a week now and I'm mostly very happy with it. Unfortunately at least 50% of the time, the people on the other side of the phone seem to have a lot of trouble hearing me. I have tested it out myself and it does seem that it is a bit distance/cuts out intermittently for very short periods. My five year old motorola sounds better.
I was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem?
Unless someone points me to a fixable reason why this is happening I will be sending it back very soon. It also has a pixel stuck on green, which is mega annoying as it is very central.
Hope you can help!
Neil
p.s. Thankyou for the great forum, which has been loads of help!

nope, havent had that problem at all, check your mic settings

Hermes stops responding to screen taps/registering false ones - HW issue?

One weird problems I've been experiencing with my new Hermes:
After some use, typically half an hour or a little less, it the screen stops responding to my stylus. Resets do not help, but keeping it completely turned off for a while seems to help - it's almost as if its overheating (silly, I know, but that what's the only thing I can come up with). The buttons, all of them, work well though.
Another weird problem I also experience, that I presume is linked to this, is that it seems to start registering stylus taps - typically in the upper right corner, constantly. This leads to all programs I have running getting closed, and I have to to the same thing again - leave it of for a few minutes before it starts acting normal again.
I use The Black 2.0 WM6 ROM, but no one else using this ROM has reported this issue as far as I know. I've tried keeping it "clean", i.e. not installing any software on it, but that does not seem to make a difference. I was originally using a screen protector, but removed it to see if that made any difference, but it didn't.
The Hermes is brand new - got it a few days ago, does anyone have any idea if it's a hardware problem, or is this a known problem? I've searched these forums, but not found anyone else sharing my problem.

This is a rare, but known hardware problem. I have heard from six or seven people so far who experienced it, me included.
None of the tricks to solve the far more widespread "screen alignment problem" work. Only solution is to exchange the device.
Cheers

Thanks for your feedback Daniel - I've just contacted the seller to see if I can arrange a replacement. Though it's never the most welcome news that one has to replace one's device, I'm glad at least I know what caused the problem.
Again - thanks for your feedback!

Same Problem
I have the same problem. Since I got this brand new on eBay, I can't simply take it in for an exchange? Is there a fix for this? This is flat our annoying, and I'm about to swear off buying a PocketPC/Phone for good.
Can someone please help?

Hi Olesk,
I have the same problem and I'm on Dutty v2 ROM.
I never experience this problem before. This prob started after I start upgrading my ROM from WM5 to LVSW then to DUTTY.
My machine is Dopod838Pro.

White screen SPV 3100

Hello all,
I'm newby at the forum and sorry for my bad English. I just read all the threads concerning my problem, before post this, and a can't find any solution
I bought this phone on ebay faulty. The seller tell that it only problem was white screen. I thought was simple to fix with flashing but... I tried to fix it using all the solutions even i just open it and clean with a soft brush but no luck
When i turn it on i just see a white screen. When a plug it in ac adapter he charge and when a plug it at my desktop e charge too but don't syncronize with active sync 4,5. For this i don't know if is a software or hardware issue.
I can't put into bootloader too.
Any Help? I don't want spend my money in a new lcd without your opinion.
Thanks in advance for all e regards from Portugal.

This topic has been covered many times, which is perhaps why folk will not answer in a new thread about it.
Have a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321163
But in summary:
Flashing will not cure it.
A new screen will probably not cure it.
In many cases it is caused by a fault on the d/pad. Replacing that might be successful. In the thread above look for the bit about putting padding on a d/pad chip - that seems to have worked for many (but not all)

Hi there. I just open a new thread cause i had read all the things in the link you gave, with no luck for me. But thank you for the help.

Hello! I have the same problem with my Hermes. But I know how to solve it - at least in my case. I had to open PDA and look inside. There's a tape (strip?) which is connected by two screws. Well, one is gone. The tape doesn't lie as it should so I had to connect it by glue. Now it's fine. It was physical damage, flashing wouldn't help much, especially here but my thougts were similiar in the beginning.
Good luck and Cheers

Universal touchscreen/backlight issue

Sorry if you have read this already, I think I posted in the wrong section.:
Hi I have a very strange issue. My Universal only works properly when the screens casing is open. If it is closed... soon after my touchscreen stops working and my backlight may or may not function. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I love this site!

Have you tried doing a hard reset?

interesting
I have done a hard reset, but it doesn't really fix the problem. Does this sound more like a software issue, as you are the second person to ask me this. If I can't figure it out, I guess I will just sell it for parts. Ho-humm!

Sounds more like a hardware issue to me. I would open up the Uni and check the connections of the screen cable are secure. Step by step instructions can be found in the manual - see Wiki.

Help with Phoenix Automotive rkpx6 head unit

So, first off let me apologize for any naivety that I have when it comes to this. I purchased a head unit from Phoenix automotive, and have regretted it so far. I have seen a few different threads here and there about them but nothing super specific. I'm having a lot of issues with mine and have tried to do a lot of research to try to figure out how to fix the issues I'm having but I'm coming up dry. I have seen a lot of help on this forum though for multiple different things. So, hopefully you guys can help me out with some of the issues I'm having. I tried to follow the instructions about figuring out my processor to see if anything was answered under threads that have already been created but I am even having an issue figuring out the processor. I tried to use the terminal app and I will attach the picture of what came up but nothing that I saw on the terminal app matched anything listed for threads that already existed for processors. A lot of this is very new to me but I am not getting much help from Phoenix automotive. I will attach a couple extra pictures as well that gives a little more information about what I am working with. some of the issues I am having a regarding volume being too loud, the climate control system not working properly, finding a better radio app, and then just a couple little things. Hope you guys can help!
It would not let me attach the full links so I just took out the https part. But here are the three photos
