i bought 4 qteks from a dealer in Romania. all of them had the same problem: after configuring the mailbox, i did a soft reset and they disaperared. upgrade to jasjar didn't solve the problem. please, help me !!!
Mine stays, but only by waiting for longer than 3 mins before soft resetting.
This is apparantly a 'feature' of WM5. New mailboxes/emails will stay in RAM for the first 3 mins, and then pass into ROM. So as long as you wait 3 mins then all is good.
10x. i will try that tomorow. where did you read about the 3 minutes?
Read it in an msdn blog somewhere.

Hi all
I got a O2 orbit. It is ok for everything, but Valid time in QuickGps was not updated when i connected to PC or WIFI, it updated only Download Time. I tried to many time by installed Copilot6 first or after...as the same results. Another point, I did the hard-reset to be back manufature system, Quickgps give me the same result. What is the problem with O2 QuickGPS? (normally, QuickGPS is always updated itself when it is connected to internet connection)
......Help me......

Hi
i have the same problem.
I can connect and download, The download time is updated but the vald time shows EXPIRED.
i have had to disable the reminder..
hi
i have just set the date on my Orbit to the 7th december and quick GPS downloaded and showed 3 days on the valid time..
reset to correct date ran QuickGPS and valid time has reverted to EXPIRED.
Yesssss..indeed
......... WHY? it works when the date is not real......why?
thanks.....
Yep,l I have the same problem, I turned the notification off until I find a solution.
Have you installed the TomTom desktop on your pc? If not do it and then put in your tomtom sign-in and password. It then opens everytime you connect your Artemis
Snap - same expired message (and over enthusiastic startup of Copilot).
So, not having read this thread I've already done a hard reset on my XDA Orbit on the basis that there was an error in the ROM. (I sought a ROM download in another thread)
but... At the moment I have not loaded Copilot... and I'm assuming it's not just diue to that!
Also, based on the feedback others are giving (not TomTom's advice) I'm probably going to get TomTom6 and ditch Copilot. Probably flash and copy flash onto my 2gb mini sd.
HI
well HAPPY NEW YEAR just fired Orbit up to go out for a hike and QuickGPS now functions correctly can only think there must of been an issue ith the received data. i guess time will tell.
FYI i've been for a small hike using Memory map on the Orbit, been there done it and the Orbit still shows 50% batery left so i have left the application running to see how long i can get with the GPS running alongside memory map very impressed so far..
i'll post a note how long it lasts..
Hi
Well with memory map running and backlight set to dim after 3 minutes i received low battery warning 10% left at 7 hours 45 minutes. device switched off after approx 8 hours and 15 minutes.

I'm back up again too. on my XDA Orbit.

My QuickGPS wasnt working either so I turned notification off. But got TTNAV6 working today, went to check QuickGPS for first lock on and it had already updated earlier today! Maybe it was an issue with HTC's / TomTom's server. Anyway appears to be working now.

I have the same problem , since 28 Dec. 2007, and need a help
Hi folks,
I am in serious trouble. My XDA Orbit stopped working yesterday. It turn itself off after a few minutes, the on/off button doesn't work any more, the screen turns white.
I ordered it on the first day it came out, so it is now 1,5 years old and I still have warranty. I will send it in for repair to O2, eventhought I am in the USA for a few more months.
They said i will get into trouble if other software is installed, currently, and since 6 months, TouchFLO is installed, but this does not cause my hardware problems...
Who knows where I can get the original WM5 or WM6 German O2 XDA Orbit ROM? I have to flash it onto my device.
THis would be a great help, otherwise I have to pay a fine...
I used the search function, but the mentioned ROM was offline.
Thank you so much!!!
login into the www.o2-online.de site.
there u can download the german ROM
Hi!
I have the problem, that my HTC P3300 switches off, from self, alone.
Or it crashes since i do settings in tomtom or other programs.
I had the PDA 2 times !!! at my nearest service partner. And they means that the PDA is OK.
Now i have the newest software on the pda, I tried 2 different storagecards, but the problem is not solved.
So what can i do?
When the PDA crashes or switches off alone at standby, i had to give out the battery a few seconds. ONLY after that it´s possible to switch ON the PDA.
can anyone help me?
Flash it with a new rom ?
I had similar probs a while back. Cant remember which rom i had installed. But i have flashed back to vanilla and no issues since.
The cause could be a bad flash....
Hi, thanks for answering.
Where can i download other/older ROMS for the Artemis?
Just to let you know - you are not alone. My P3300 is switching itself off all the time. I tried to re-flash with the same rom, did not help (did not try older ones). But I suspect it is really a hardware issue - because it switches of more often in a hot environment.
Hi!
Oh, that´s nice, that i am not alone ;-)
I am sad that my HTC Service Point means my HTC is OK?!?!
Yesterday i tried an other SIM Card, from an other Mobilephone Provider.
Now the HTC is running since 16 hours without self switch off.
I am inquiring how long this runs OK.
But i also think its a hardware issue.
add me to the list. same phone, same issues. HELP!
Hi!
The last days i tested my phone.
Firs with an other SIM Card, and no Storagecard,.
Then without SIM Card, only with a storagecard
Since yesterday i had an other SIM AND the storagecard on board.
As yet no crash.
Tomorrow i would put my main SIM Card AND my main Storagecard in the HTC.
We´ll see what´s going on...
Very strange...
A suggestion - let us compare the versions of the roms we have. I had this:
Artemis_Touch_4.02_Full_with_4_sided_cube.zip
(I am currently testing with original rom to see if it solves something)
i had the latest ROM from the HTC Homepage
I had the latest dutch version (original) wm6 from the t-mobile website and now the english version (wm6) from the artemis wiki page.
I've noticed that today it crashed only 2 times (before +8). lets see what happens ...
Since the last 3 days my HTC won´t switched off itself.
BUT, when i play as sample with WLAN Settings, or with the "transcribe" settings, the HTC crashed. Black Display, no chance to restart.
After, press softreset, and put out the battery the HTC starts again.
I played again with WLAN Settings an nothings happens, the HTC runs.
It´s very strange, because my HTC runs over 1 Year perfectly.
And now i have such troubles. The question is why...
I also wrote to the HTC support, on the HTC Support page in the internet, but i become NO ANSWER!!!
I think i´d like to buy a Nokia Mobile Phone.
today my phone proved me wrong. it kept crashing and crashing. tomorrow ill go over to the t-mobile store and see what they have to say...
thorx, how is it going over there?
edit/update: i reflashed once more, this time without the storage card in (dunno if it matters) and another sim card. So far (1 hour) i had no crash. ill keep posting with updates.
Hi!
My HTC does NOT crashed the last days itself.
But it crashed often when i change some settings.
As sample: changes in the WLAN Settings, changes in the transcribe setting, and so on.
It´s not really comprehensible.
No one could help... -(
i gave it to t-mobile today. 10 days to get it fixed, im in waranty so its ok
I have the same problem with my Artemis. 2 weeks ago I've put new ROM (Original HTC WM6.0) and the problem occurred so I think maybe solution is downgrade to WM5. This week I'll check it.
One (maybe unrelated question) - do you have iGO 8 installed? My phone problems started after installing it.
Duplicate post
I do not think that it´s a softwareproblem.
My HTC runs over 1 Year with WinMobile 5.
From one day to the other, i have this curious error.
Then i gave it to my servicepartner. They installed me the newest SW, with WinMobile 6.
The problem isn´t solved.
Now i give my HTC third time to my service partner. :-(
The HTC Support doesn´t respond my emails. :-((
Perhaps i only could sell my phone as damaged on ebay...
My Orbit switched its self off randomly when it was in my pocket so I didn't know it was off! It was completely random and started happening when it was around 8 months old.
My solution was to cut up a credit card and use a strip of that to wedge in between the battery and housing. Previously I noticed the battery was a little loose and this solution has worked so far 5 months down the line it hasn't switched off since...
So, now my problem is solved.
I sended my HTC 3 times to my service partner.
After the third repair attempt, i become a replacement device.
They changed the hole pda, only the HTC case is my old one.
Now my HTC runs perfectly without errors.
I used to own a T Mobile MDA Compact 3 which I believe is the same as the Artemis.
The phone worked fine for me over the 18 months I had it. However I've since sold this phone on ebay and the buyer has reported a problem where it keeps cutting off via email.
I don't know if he's pulling a fast one or if this is a genuine problem. If it is a genuine problem how do I fix it? Any help would be appreciated.
The only problem I've had with the phone is a screen problem on it in January and went back to T Mobile for repair. They sent it back with a replaced screen and WM6 on it which the buyer is saying is likely to be the cause of the power cut outs.
If it is WM6 does anyone know how to downgrade the device back to WM5? Any help appreciated.
Rather than paraphrase his emails I'll just list them in order received:
Email 1 received:
"hi.. this phone keeps switching off compeletely. each time i have to restart. sometimes its after 10mins other times its later. do you still have any warranty on it? if so can you post me paperwork and i can possibly have it repaired. if not then its faulty. it just keeps randomnly switching itself off. ive tried hard resets. even downloaded latest roms from tmobile website for compact 3 but still no success. ?? only other thing i can try is reinstalling windows mobile....."
I asked him for the link used to download the rom:
Email 2:
"tmobile direct.. under support and software.. i worked for 02 providing data support on pdas for 7 years and now own a 60 seater call centre in manchester and sell consumer and business mobile phones.. look at my feedback. ive bought and sold many pdas. im familar with them. backlight and power settings are unticked. it just completely shuts down. same as would when you would when you do a soft reset. after a hard reset the only thing you can really do is make sure the latest rom or software is installed. its an intermittent problem and i cant replicate it all the time. when it does it just switches off completely. no error messages at all. on standby it fine. its when your using the phone, any application or even on the internet. did wm6 come with the phone or did you install this yourself. ive noticed wm6 is not available on this model by tmobile. they have taken it off their websites.. ive used wm5 and have never experienced problems with them. if wm6 was an upgrade do you have wm5"
Email 3:
"i will try another battery as i have more mda compact 3's... if it works with another battery. no probs. i'll keep it. if it doesnt then i will have no option but to return as its faulty. could well be the battery if you have used it for about 18mths.. will keep you posted. thanks"
Email 4:
"i have done a little more testing and here is a problem that i can replicate every 5-10 mins.. the phone itself if not used does not switch off. its when its used that i have the problem. i have noticed in the about section the phone originally came with WM5. so maybe its the WM6 that is not fit for the phone? WM6 is not available and not supported on this model by Tmobile. Anyway. if i log onto to the internet via gprs and am physically browsing after a few mins the phone will reboot itself and switch off. so if im on the internet but not actually browsing and have just a gprs session active, the phone is fine. its only when i am actually browsing a site - it can be any randomn sites its not linked to any one site.. regards bash - hope the above makes sense.."
Email 5:
"i still have not had chance to try with a different battery but when i do i will let you know. i dont think you are a rip off merchant at all. im just letting you know the problems i am experiencing. its not just the internet. its also when i use my own 3rd party software which i use on other mdas orbits and spvs and works totally fine. i will speak to tmobile in the morning and see if i can get wm5 off them as i think its related to wm6. if the battery or wm5 does not fix it then i will have no choice but to return it. will keep you posted. regards"
bump.
Any help really appreciated.
I have the very same problem here !!!!
Dont think its the battery because it started from one moment to another with a FULL battery
I had the same problem with my phone turning off during use for no reason even when the battery was showing it was charged.
I replaced my battery and all seems to be OK now.

Hi friends, I just flashed my cavalier 100 from WM60 to 6.5, it works fine but, I don't know why the keyboard comes off, any letters respond. Some times after many resets comes back again but,, suddenly turn off!
There is a hot fix or tip to solve this issue?
Thanks.
Does this only happen on the 6.5 ROM?
And...is your kmap file correct?
I downgrade to WME 6.1, and went to the agency and chage the SIM (2 hours ago) for now it is working. I didn't try the new SIM with WME 6.5 yet, but I will and let you know!
Thanks!
