MY XDA II Keeps Resetting! - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

ROM Version: 1.60.00WWE
ROM Date: 12/03/03
RAIDO Version: 1.1.0..
Not sure why, but happens twice a Day now! :roll: :roll:
HARD REset!
Any advise would be helpfull....

Looks like we got nearly similar problems
a day back....the blue LED lite (but I'm not using any BT device) and I couldn't do anything....even soft reset nothing happened....open/reinstall the battery....haha...it hard resets by itself
Today, at nearly the same time, same thing happened. But I remembered to off the BT so that no one can bluejack me....so why did the blue LED lite...and nothing could be done?
I really dunno why, when it happened, the softwares were the same factory default (I had no time to install any software) and the baterry level was 60%..
Rom version 1.66WWE
Radio:1.08.00
Hope someone can help me......PLEASE

azbro how often does that hapen to your xda?
Mind you i have noticed the BT light come on..however the BT is turned off from the device! How odd :roll: :roll:
Help!......

my bluetooth led also blink 1 or 2 times sometimes when i turn it on

ahhh...but my blue tooth light flashes even when i dnt turn it on.. :shock:

Tweaks2K2
Hello guys..you need this super application to shut off those LED's for good, and thus saving power!
Many more tweaks in here too!
Enjoy! :lol:

A device that does a Hard reset by its self, unwanted, un-asked for, most allways has a problem with the battery or the connection to the battery.
This is true for a BA, have no prrof that it is also true for other devices.

leds use very very little power i renember buying a logitech mouse optical and the case wrapping had a red led to emulate the led in optical mice
that led was powered by 1 AA batt and lasted for ages
i doubt that people can measure much difference in batt life by turning off the green and even blue led

The Point
Listen here...negative comments are not welcome matey! LED'S can annoy people, so my FULL app helps eliminate this, and also many other tweaks enclosed in this fab app! Any minute power saving is always welcome! :x
I am here to help! :evil:

is there a new rule in the forum where one can not share info and opinions if some dont like that info / openions ?
if so then that rule passed without my knowledge

Get the Point!
Understand my point dude, and then we can go forward!
Try to reword your comments in future so they don't cause conflict, OK?
END! :!:

not sure which of my comments were hhmmm undiplomatic
dident even know it was your program or know the program in general
just talked about leds really

Hum let us have a look here,
Rudegar has 3165 posts.
engager has 3 posts.
Think Rudegar would have seen that new rule.
I for one fail to read any negative comments about your application.

There wasn't anything negative about his post at all.. Bad day?

A loose SIM card will cause an intermitent hard reset, adjust the rails that hold the SIM in place, worked for me!

Battery
Hi All,
Regarding this issue. This is my point of view. I myself have this problem too. Currently I am using XDA II with WM2005. I surpose the problem comes from the software part *maybe the battery meter reading error*..
When using the phone, when ever I reach 37%, the phone will auto off, or maybe it hard reset? I dunno as WM2005 got persistant memory. But I know the situtation is the same, Boot up, blue led, den keep resetting, unles you plug the POWER SUPPLY .. not power thru USB direct from computer.
I tried a test, and am sure its software problem. I put a new battery on test, the battery went to 25% and then same, it shuts off like the previous.
So, anyone have any idea where to get a software that maybe.. reset the battery meter?

Me too, I had upgrade the rom from 1.60 to 2.06, when ever the battery hit below 50%, it sometime turn off by itself or hardreset even I did not turn it on.
I downgrade it back to 1.60 rom and working fine now.

you dint say if you are using some batery program you can disable radio and use pda with radio off and find out if its not radio thats killing the batery at 25% and that remove bad sim conection also
there are also some sd cards that request power even when not in use so thats a test to
use a program to check the batery full charge it and test
i have two bateries for my xda 2 one last almost twice the other the stong one was made somewhere in japan and the weeker one in china that doesnt mean anything cos i could find the companies envolved only where they say made in .....
hope thats helpfull

hi
i have a problem some time my artemis turn off i don't now why
can any body help me please
I have the same problem
For anyone to do a proper problem determination, we need to know what rom you are using, what windows version and pref. also what applications you are running.
tanks for replay
i use mw6 i don't use any rom
but the phone turn off and the battery show 60%
tanks
i have the same problem, i used different windows 6.5 roms and at this moment i use Artemis touch 4.02 full with cube. witch is a stable rom. with this rom i never had that problem but now i have. i also tried different radio roms. anny solution?
Could it be a bad battery? My phone's been charging at 16%. I do a soft reset and suddenly it's up to 70%. Then at 60% it shuts off. I turn it back on again and I get the red flashing light signaling low battery before it shuts off again. I turn it on again later and it shows 40%. I've ordered a new battery for myself. Hasn't arrived yet.
i also ordert a new battery, i hope this is the solution...............
i was having the same troubles with my artemis ,i read some posts about this
problem especially one talking about a cpu issue ,i followed his advice ,i just reflowed the cpu ,and all things became right, but it so early to have
a definitive opinion ,i will use my phone intensivelly for a month and post the results
i'm having same issue also. have try warranty my unit (change system board), but same thing happen again (can;t turn on when press power button). although using the original Dopod wm5 ROM, same thing happen after warranty.
now i'm using WM6.1 V34 by PDAVIET ROM till now it's working fine. if i've update any additional Todays Item (Pointui), same thing will happen again (hang)..

battery problem

i have artemis mobile htc p3300 since last few days i m facing battery problem while talking on phone it gets switch off while it was showing that battery power is 100%
is there any software to solve the problem
please help me
Hi Kapadiatapan. I don't think that there will be any software for that, but however, you could search for that. Or take care while talking. I mean that you could press the switch off button mistakely.
Try anything to make it right or then perform a hard reset.
Thanks
...
buy a NEW battery..
charge full <----- while turned OFF!
when green led shows, its done..
simple fix dude..
sorry..
i have had this problem before mate..
trust me!

TP2 Will only charge when switched off?

I got mine from Vodafone last night. It will only charge (at least the charging light will only come on when the phone is switched on).
It stays amber for a reasonable amount of time, then turn green. But as soon as I turn it on the charging light goes off.
The battery meter at the top of the screen shows FULL, but if I go to Settings and check there the battery shows down at one single red bar. The phone shows no inclination to switch off (even when not plugged in) with the power meter down at one red bar.
Any thoughts ideas? Bad Battery? I don't think its the charger as I have three and have tried them all.
TIA
Did you make sure that checkbox in the attached screenshot is unchecked? I accidentally checked this one time and took me forever to find out why...

Thanks for the response.
Yeah, I did look at that. It is unchecked, and really only applies to when you are connected to a PC via USB cable.
I'm getting this with wall chargers.
Gave MrMiyagi a hand. All that was required is a hard reset and the problems is resolved. Seems when Vodafone flashed with their horrible branded ROM on they didn't hard reset properly.
Just for reference incase anyone else encounters the same problem.

Bah humbug ... I was going to hard reset anyway ;-)
It's just that you need four hands to do it on this phone. Kinnyfaifai kindly supplied the extra set of hands
Final point on this to help others who experience the same thing I did.
The root cause was that I installed MrRusche's Blue theme (originally designed for the Xperia). Works great get a lovely blue instaed of manky green highlights.
BUT he included in the CAB a 1% battery driver which was screwing the battery reporting up.
Installed the 1% battery driver from this forum after installing the Blue theme and everything is rosy again. The phone will once more charge when powered on

XDA Orbit not running right

My XDA Orbit went crazy today, first I couldn't start him at all, he wasn't react on "power button". After few attemts he finally started. I connected him to PC but he turned off after couple minutes. From this moment I can't start windows, it stops at starting screen (with IPL, SPL, GSM, OS). After a while screen starting to quakes (like a low frequency on CRT). I tried hard reset, it won't help and run it in bootloader mode but Orbit just reset.
Additonal info:
IPL 3.04.0001
SPL 3.04.0000
GSM 02.67.90
OS 3.4.0.0
ROM: Original WM6 from O2
Can anyone help me?
Have you tried a different barttery?
No, I didn't. I don't know anybody with artemis to borow another battery.
EDIT: I checked battery voltage, it's about 3,85V and now i noticed something, on battery sticker is printed it is for ARTE160 3.7VDC-1200mAh but on the phone it's printed ARTE200 5VDV-1A. Is that can cause the problem?
Finally I forced it to run in bootloader mode and flashed with the same O2 WM6 ROM. He started and I was abble to flash USPL and other ROM. It's better but still sometimes phone just poweroff with no reason

Hi

I bought a new battery but phone still turning off and freezes. Now I can't even turn it on, sometimes it starts but screen slowly fades away and after few seconds its only black screen with black light. It's propably a hardware problem but what?
EDIT: I started it, working fine when it's connected with pc but when I disconnect it freezes after couple of minutes.
flisak
open the device and check the screen is connected propperly, piss easy, just be very carefull.
if this does not work buy a new LCD.
Hi, I have the same problem with my Artemis, did anyone find a solution? Can be a problem with the LCD?
And plus one here. The device always turn off, and is difficult to turn on again. Rplaced battery and is the same.....
I've got an XDA Orbit that periodically hangs (full black screen and occasionally this seems to drain the battery very quickly). I've taken it apart and reseated the connectors and these all look ok.
Seems to happen when you're taking it out of a pocket to answer a call etc. Sometime it just requires a soft-reset but occasionally it just doesn't respond. In these instances I have found that twisting it slightly across the diagonal (top left to bottom right bending back slightly) and then resetting the device seems to bring it back to life and it's ok for a few hour/days again. If I leave it alone, i.e. not in my jeans pocket - it's fine, so think it's hardware related but not sure which bit is faulty - screen, touch-screen, mainboard etc.
If I bend it the same as above when it's working the screen goes screwy and causes it to crash so think it's definitely this is what's causing the device to crash. However, the clock seems to keep going (I'm assuming so as in most incidents it doesn't seem to lose the correct time - although I might just be seeing the problem the instant after it has crashed) so don't know whether the mainboard is still ok.
Just thought it might help some if you try the slight twisting described above to see if that helps with these to get them working and if anyone has any ideas how I can work out which bit of mine is faulty I'd be grateful.
when I try to flash the ROM 6.5 for my HP3300 after 4% flashing it restrats again. Pls help me out. I think this problem might be with my Ext_ROM. How to unlok EXT_ ROM

Well it seems that I'm having similar issues with my Orbit.
I've been having problems with it for a few weeks and they seem to be getting much worse now.
Occasionally it would just lock up and freeze, but after frantic tapping it will unfreeze itself and continue working fine. But over the past few days it's been locking up regulary. Removing the battery was the only way to get it going again.
But now it just won't do anytihing. As soon as I start it up I either get a white screen (it phases in during the splash screen), or it'll start up, freezes after a few seconds, then eventually switches itself off. Hard resetting it makes no difference at all. Changing the battery didn't work either. I always keep it on charge overnight, could that be the problem? Maybe I'm just overcharging the battery (if that's even possible).
Note: As I've typed this, I've switched it on again only to find the battery's flat, even though it's been off for most of the day (I gave up trying to start it up). The battery usually lasts for the whole day - maybe even 2 days if I don't use it much. I had it on charge overnight as I said.
I'll try another battery to see if that works. If not then what can I do?

Everyday, at least once, my TP2 stops. Soft reset required.

Hi guys,
I bought a brand new TP2. I did upgrade it (flash ROM) with the one published by HTC (wm6.5 for europe, not linked to any operator).
Everything is fine except that, every day, it stops without obvious reason but always when I do not manipulate it.
It stays with a black screen.
This night it happened when charging. I removed the plug but the led (green one when charging is ok) staid green. Means to me that it's not a screen issue.
Power button does not help. Nothing happens.
I need to soft reset or to remove/replace the battery to have it restart.
I have read that it could be due to a certain threshold of app. memory (83%).
Thus I installed cleanRAM that, every 3 hours, clean the RAM. Thus I'm quite certain that is it not a problem of memory.
Any idea ? Suggestion ?
Thanks a lot for your help !
I've had the same problem, but only WITH cleanram. The way I solved it is to use the excluded list in cleanram so it doesn't tamper with tf3d. Now it works fine, no more soft-resets in the morning
You should try nopushinternet and SSK TP2 Dynamic Resource Proxy cabs. they will lower your usage up to 20%.
you could also try scheduled restart, maybe that will help if it is already resetting every day.

Welcome to the club. Same problems here but yet without result or ideas
I honestly have gone without resetting my phone in 4 days and it is running like I just reset it. Go through the forums and find the popular cabs to get an idea what everyone is using to help make their TP2 stable.
I think you talking about this problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619113
I think it's good thing to join our force in one thread.
