GREEN Button swaps to CALENDAR

Recently I am experience and incredible fact.
The green button to start a call NOW works as CALENDAR shortcut button (yes like the top right button)
The red button to END a call NOW works as CONTACT shortcut button (yes like the top LEFT button)
The 2 Contact and Calendar button (top left and right) DO work correctly.
I supposed some recently installed applications made this mess. Therefore I tried
- soft reset: no way
- hard reset: no way
- I PUT MDA 3 in BootLoader mode and I REINSTALLED MY rom 1.42 WWE
Now what happened is that for 2 days OK, the GREEN and RED button DID work correctly to start and end CALLS.
After 2 days, the strange phenomena appeared again!
Please note that I HAVE NOT INSTALLED ANY ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE!
I am very puzzled.
Please help

Maybe a virus?

I am getting crazy at this behavour...did i get a virus?
Thanks and waiting

I got it to the second time yesterday, but it just went away.
The first time it happened I did a hard reset 2 times and that didn't fix it.
The battery had to die completely
Is it a known issue ofr ROM 1.42?
Thanks and waiting
Saulo
did you try to REFLASHING ????
I was actually going to downgrade because the problem never happened in 2003, but my battery was dead when the battery was charged enough to start the buttons worked correctly.....
The second time it happened it just went away after a few hours (I was driving so I couldn't mess with it) when I got home it was back to normal.

Have you recently installed any software, let me know maybe it is related to some software??
Do you know how to UNLOCK the ExtROM and then install 1.42 o
Yes I have installed Windows 2005. Then since very unstable, I downgraded to Win2003, 1.42 (not the original 1.31
Now, in addiiton to his strange fact, (flipping buttons) I experience the flickering of screen, several times a week. A soft reset usually solves this new problem. But then it may reappear.
I installed the following softwares: CE Chinese Input
I thought it was the culprit, therefore i made a HARD RESET.
Then I tried other sfw, also trial Chinese Inputs.
But again this problem reappeared
Now I made a clean HARD RESET and NO sfw.
The problem reappeared.
Conclusion:
I guess something wrong in External ROM.
In fact in Device Information:
ROM version 1.4200 WWE
Radio 1.13.00
ExtRom: NONE
Do you know how to UNLOCK the ExtROM and then install 1.42 on it?
Thanks
Saulo
i have the same problem today. it has happened before. i think it is a glitch in the rom. i have hard reset and it went away before. this time no. i have hard reset and restore my backup and same thing. the culprit could be a bad wisbar install. that is what i think i did wrong, i installed wise bar and did not reset (forgot). then this morning woke up to the send button going to calendar. any suggestions. thanks.

I get a similar thing but my green button opens TomTom navigator
I also upgraded to WM5 and then back down again to the 2003 1.42

Phone will not come out of standby

hi guys,
has anyone experienced a problem where their Trinity will not "wake up" with the short press of the on/off button?
I'm sure I read about this some time ago and am trying to work out if it's hardware or OS related.
I'm running mUn's TE WM6 which I have been for many months now.
The problem has only started in the last 2 weeks or so.
I haven't installed anything new, but have enabled Push Mail for OTA mail.
It's doing it 1 or 2 times a day now and is very frustrating. The only way to wake the phone is soft reset.
When calling the phone from a landline, it does not ring and goes to voicemail.
Any advice or solutions gratefully received.
no one seen this then I guess.
Bummer (for me!)
Try hard reset

thanks John.
But do you have any fact based reason for this suggestion?
I'm happy to give it a go if there's more than 50% chance it will work.

You might have loaded a program that is not liked. Use a backup program. If this does not work then load your backup after the hard reset and you will be back to where you started
P3600 with D810 WM6 ROM; also happens occasionally, recovered with soft reset. Seems to happen most often when I press the On/Off button twice too quickly.
thanks guys.
I'm going to try the hard reset route-I'll report back.
Some time ago this happened to me so often, but said it was due to some application, in my case was Slide2Unlock.
Since I removed by their consumption of memory it didn't happened to me.
(Sorry for my english)
Bugger, this has started to happen to me as well. Only 3 times in the last 3 days but if it keeps is up that will be enough for me to do a hard reset (overdue). Strange cause the only new thing I put on in the last week has been PCM 16 which is only a copy/paste exercise.
The fix in the Hermes forum is to force your device to sleep and not let it go into standby.
I have had some problems recently with DeviceLock 1.2 just ceasing to work and have to uninstall/reinstall to make it work again. I set it to turn the screen off when locked, as this does not put the device on standby, maybe there is the same issue with it going into standby by itself.
I have the same problem..i think that it has to do with the phone hanging..most probably due to some background programs eating too much power and memory and the phone just lacks till it hangs..happens when you have other programs that have hanged as well..my problem is with PocketAlarm..it takes so long to load my phone went to standby and the phone couldnt be called back..in brief the phone just hangs because of a program..i don think it has any problem do to with the hardware or strictly the OS..cant really explain..but the role the OS play in this problem is that it allows the program to make full use of the phone till the phone cant cope with it..its the core of the OS so it cant be avoided with any other versions or anything..sorry it seems rather unclear..hope you guys understand..
same problem for me ... from times to times, when a call hang up, i push a lot of times the red button for going back to the today screen and as it shows up, i click immediately on the Power button for turning off the screen. right after when i forgot to do something (approx 1sec) i push the power button and there it doesn't turn on the screen ... strange ...
what i've installed on it :
TomTom 6
BatteryStatus with today plugin ver 1.04.203 beta4 i put tray icons too.
i've bluezard for sniffing and/or hacking bluetooth devices.
OBDgauge too it's a software that works with a bluetooth dongle i plug into the diag port of my car.
and that's all. ah yes one more thing -> i disable the "HTC Home" because i don't like it.
Same problem here...
Still no solution?
I got this problem from some version of rom by Karmba. But V7.2 is OK so far. It seems happened when I close Egress reader by click X button then turn off screen by power switch. It then would not wakeup again. But if I close Egress and check the running programs from Task Manager to make sure the Egress is not running at the background, then I can turn on or off the screen freely.
So I think this wakeup problem is caused by some running program that was not closed properly by X button then crash the WM.
That was just my personal finding. Hope it help you guys a bit.

Constantly rebooting

Okay I'm having a problem with my TP2.
I've had it about 6 months now and had no problems until now. Earlier my battery died and now when I turn it on (after it being plugged it) It says Touch Pro 2 then just reboots. Does anyone have any idea whats wrong with it? I've tried taking out the battery leaving it a while and putting it back and i've tried taking out the memory card. Still nothing? Any ideas please?!
Thanks, Chris

While Powered off Hold Down the send, end and power button for about three seconds....Push volume up and it will restore to factory. You will lose all info.
I just tried that, it flashed on the screen with 3 colours and then it rebooted. :S Is my battery fried or something?
Thanks for the help

Make sure its charged and try again. after you hold down the keys it will propt you to push volume up to reboot. If it just keeps dying for no reason your battery could be shot, but could be a issue with the phone itself.
Okay thanks
I just tested something... When I've been testing this it has been plugged in. When I unplug it, it wont turn on at all, this is giving me the idea of a dead battery? Should I buy a new one? And whats the best battery to buy because I've looked and theres all these differen mAh ones?
Thanks
Have to found a solution/cause to your problem. My tp2 is constantly rebooting since morning. It wont event do a hard reset.
I had this issue (continuously rebooting) this weekend. I couldn't even get it to hard reset. Had to pull the battery out just so it wouldn't drain. I finally called Verizon for assistance. We did finally get it to hard reset (as described in previous post). They advised that if it happens again to call back and they'll replace it. Still don't know what caused it, and I'm ganna cry if I have to hard reset again! I suggest you call your carrier. If you're battery is already fried, they should replace it (after only 6 months).
I've had my TP2 (Rhod500 running Windows 6.5) for about four months. I've had intermittent issues with it restarting randomly, freezing, etc., but this was my first major issue. I really dislike this phone!

Strange problem involving power button, screen and soft rest

Ok, this is a slightly weird but VERY annoying issue..
Today I stopped being able to turn my TP2 on from standby.
What actually happens is when I push the power button, the phone activates, but the screen remains blank.
Pushing the volume buttons turns it up and down ( I can hear the tones)
Hang up and other buttons work ok.
The soft rest button does nothing.
Pulling out the battery restarts the phone, and the screen then works fine. Power button can then be used to turn the screen off, but will not turn it back on again
So long as I then keep the phone awake, all is well, as soon as it sleeps, I am back to the same situation.
Problem number 3 is that the Charging LED is no longer lighting up, but the phone is charging as normal.
I have hard reset the phone, and also flashed the latest WWE ROM from HTC, to no effect.
Charging LED is off even when the phone is shut down.
errrm...
Any ideas???

OMG, i am having the EXACT same issue. powerbutton will sleep phone but not initiate the screen to turn back on, openeing keyboard lights up the keys, closing lights up the buttons under the screen. Ive also hard reset etc.
Any help!?!?
I'm gonna try task29 and see what happens, could that be what caused it? Thats the only new thing ive donw
hmm, also noticed that when booting android, i get an error message: Something used micropkit_lcd_ctrl. This function should no longer be used.
Since the problem deals with the screen/sleep could this be a hint?
BTW: task29 doesnt help at all =[ cant anyone help?
Are you using Windows Mobile or Android?
Hard reset and see if the problem goes away.
running windows mobile and android. Cant boot into android because I receive that error message previously stated... Hard reseting doesnt help =[
Running WM, and I've done 2 hard resets and a ROM flash.
Interestingly enough, the last thing I did before having problems was to run up and play with the latest version of Android, using the cab install version.
Is there some code for that (perhaps used for the power button to intercept the press) that could be remaining in rom after the reset???
Clutching at straws here...
Ok, found this at the end of the Android thread:

thanks a lot, man!
this pretty much solves it - mines' also working now
Note: Flashing hard spl seems to have fixed mine too!
Hmm... could this HSPL also cause a problem with not connecting the device to PC? (device is not reckognized)
Hard SPL Reflash
Hey there, did you just reflash Hard SPL and evertything was fine? or did you hard reset and reflash your ROM also after reinstalling Hard SPL?
Thanks!
Michael

I just booted up into my current rom(firestorm) and didnt let it sleep, plugged it in and flashed hard-spl, and it works now!! So dont hard-reset, just flash over your current rom.
Hmmmmm...
Just out of interest (as I'm always updating and playing with android) which version screwed with the phone?
Although it seems to be resolved, I'd rather not have to go though the bother of re-installing HSPL
I was using the cab install version
Project Android 031710v2.cab
Just to note further, before using it I had not installed Hard SPL, nor had I flashed my TP2 to any official ROMS

Continuous flashing of welcome screen on boot

Hello everyone. I am using an unrooted HTC 10.
A few days ago I switched off my phone overnight, in the morning when I turned it on, I noticed that the HTC welcome screen flashes and then goes back to to black and instantly flashes again, while vibrating every time it flashes. Sometimes it would do that 2 times, sometimes more. And then finally it boots normally and the phone would start.
It happens only when I switch off and power on my device, not when I restart it.
I've done a factory reset but that doesn't seem to resolve anything, as the issue still exists.
Thank you, in advance, for any responses.
Your help in any form, such as suggestions and opinions, is much appreciated.

It's the same as with the buttons back light and the charging LED, and has been mentioned numerous times all over different threads. It's a software and hardware self-check when booting up. Mine does the same during boot up.
