Lately my Blue Angel keeps loosing screen calibration. I don't know why and its annoying me. Every now and then, when I select any of the icons or touch stuf towards the bottom of the screen, the device will not respond.
Only after calibrating the screen will it work properly. Does anyone have this problem and perhaps know why it is doing this?
My devicde information is:
ROM version: 1.40.00 WWE
Radio version: 1.12.00
strange...have the same problem...but i have wm5...don't know why...it's really annoying so i will do a hardreset
Think I might do the same. Its almost enough to make someone want to sell the device lol.
Did the hard reset fix the problem?

Tried various WM2002 or 2003 ROMs, and settled back on WM2002 as it seems more stable, but I still have a problem where the phone seems to turn off (no green LED blinking), and when you press the top button to turn on the PDA it is as though you have warm reset it. I think I might be missing calls because of this and will have to change the phone if this is the case. Now when I know I might be expecting an important call I have to keep checking the green LED is blinking! I also get periodic SD card erasure unless I write protect it! Overall it is a nightmare to use because of these two issues.
ROM versions:
3.17.03 ENG
ROM date 5/15/03
Radio 4.21.00
Protocol 32S54
Hi mate, my XDA does the same thing - I have upgraded my ROM too (see profile for version etc.). Best thing I can offer to you is that it resets when bumped or knocked (like if I put it down on my desk a bit too hard), the screen will go wierd and then reset. Don't know why this happens but I keep checking my green light for flashing too. My vibrate function no longer works wither. I plan on calling O2 tomorrow to follo up the issues.
Well, I had the same problem with my QTEK 1010, os 2002, until I downloaded a very good clock/alarm software: pTravelAlarm (make a google search for it). among its functions is a very good one which is Chime, (in alarm menu) it wakes up the device each one hour so it will not get stunned. Now I never miss a call. The only disadvantage is that it makes the battery lasts a bit shorter than before.
john banks, there must be something loose in your device, carefully disassemble it and check all screws inside, if all ok, I'm afraid you might have to send it to a repair shop.
after installing the SER 1.2 special version from xda developer, my XDA run smoothly and I can see the sender of SMS anymore
Following a couple of previous spontaneous hard-resets, my SPV2000's now developed a liking for it, and I've got a completely repeatable hard-reset issue...
All I need do is press the telephone "Green" button!
What's odd is that if, following the hard reset, I hit the green button after the PDA's started up, but before all the Orange McGuffery installs, the phone just pops up fine. Soon as the Orange stuff's installed, it's back to green=hard reset.
WTF? Anybody else had anything similar?
If that is the case, it would seem that something in your EXtRom is the cause.
I suggest you try updating your rom, or just generally cooking your Extended rom.
Instructions on working with your extended rom are here:

Is that as scary as it sounds?
BTW - I've just tried to demonstrate this utterly-repeatable behaviour and... it's working as it should. <cries, bangs head on table>
I had a problem with my first M2000 in that it wouldn't soft reset. Whenever I tried it would just stall and would take over an hour with the sim card out before it would work again.
Finally get a replacement and I found the rom was insanely old. After a couple of questions in the upgrade folder I *just* flashed the phone with the latest rom and a slightly modified extended rom. While it does look tricky, its not.
Look here for more...

And it's back at it.
The phone was ringing, I pressed "Green" to answer it, and got a hard reset. Restored the backup, pressed "Green", and got a hard reset.
This is getting VERY depressing.
Has nobody ever experienced similar? <whimper>
<UPDATE>
It gets worse! The f**king thing's now wiped my contacts and calendar in Outlook.
Excuse me, I'm just off to take to drink.
It would be worth you trying to upgrade the radio to v1.08.00.
My SPV had the audio problem and it seems to have cured that (tho I haven't re-installed much of the 3rd party s/w I had on there yet) so maybe it will help you too.
I upgraded to v1.10.00 initially (from v1.06.00), but couldn't get my wifi link to work properly. I then tried v1.08.00 and everything seems fine.
Me too, just started this week
I am also having spontaneous hard reset problems with my pda2k. I have been using it for about 6 months and for at least two months with all the sw I now have on it. When I press the power button to bring it back from sleeping it starts the "time to align your touch screen" crap. I am fairly sure it is NOT my ROM but in case anyone needs to know that:
ROM: 1.22.00 WWE
Radio 1.06.00
Ext ROM: 1.22.162 WWE
The only other remote possibility I can think of it some combination of the aftermarket 2200 mAh battery combined with the very high side seat bolsters in my new car. Perhaps I am twisting or stressing my unit in my front pocket when getting into or out of my car and that causes a momentary loss of contact with the battery contacts. I have tried to duplicate that with my hands but have not been able to. I guess I will not put it in my pocket for a while to continue testing. To the fellow who lost all of their contacts. I sympathize! That is why I set my ActiveSync to NOT actually perform any updates. I know many like the features of AS but it is not transparent, bidirectional enough nor stable enough for me to embrace. I use Sprite for backups instead and keep the data on my pda2k as "primary". Any more insight on such new and random hard resets is appreciated.
Good info on Himalaya forums also

Hi,
I have a 8525 with WM6 and Radio 1.54.07.00. Every time I received a call it gets drop when I press the answer bottom. This happen 9 out of 10 calls. I have to call back to the number in the call history.
Any sugestion?
Do you want to tell us a bit more? Are you running the original radio rom that came with the phone or a version you installed yourself?
If the latter I would consider doing the following:
- Go with another radio rom, in case there are compatibility issues with this one.
- Might be a hardware problem so I would install the S2U2 utility by A_C (search on here to find it), set the options so that you can answer or drop calls on the touchscreen and see what happens. If the device allows you to answer calls via S2U2 and the touchscreen then you may have a hardware problem.
Let us know how you get on.

I have an 8525 with radio 1.54 jsut like yours and periodically I have the same problem...not 9 out of 10 times more like 1 out of 20...It usually happens when my phones been on for a while and memory is limited etc. I usually soft reset and its good
how long have you had your phone? if its old then maybe your button is broke????
Phone is practically new, only 6 months
I downloaded the WM6 from the HTC website and installed as is.

problem:
somethimes, so notr always, when i get a call, the pfone dusn't ring but vibrates and freezes at that moment. it keeps vibrating until the battery is flat. the only way to get it back online is to soft reset it.
anyone the same problem? any sollution?
thx

It could be a hardware fault, in which case there is not much you can do, except try a different battery (the battery is a common cause of crashes).
Or it could be your notification queue which has become overcrowded. You can either fix this by doing a hard reset, which will lose all your data, or you can try reading the following post which teaches you how to spring-clean it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333521
1.15.00 is the best radio ever....check your system hardware...
i have the same problem.
i had radio 1.09. or something installed when i had this problem the first time (this morning).
i flashed 1.15 radio rom and hard resetted, but it didn't help.
the poblem only occurs when my universal is not connected with a computer/ battery charger. i hope a new battery will solve that problem. (i have my universal for nearly 2 years now and never had a problem like this)
Try radio 1.18
I move to 1.18 from 1.17 and after a month I can say it has better reception and it´s working fine for me
Cheers
1.15.00 is the best for me, no problems, works perfect (with 1.18.00 the uni freezes and crashes all the time).
But, it depends on different devices and operators
i got my new battery yesterday, but my uni still freezed on incoming calls.
i deactivated the 'htc home' and the 'wireless' today plugin, and now it seems to work (i had some incoming calls but it never crashed).
hope that helps.
edit: apparently it doesn't. my pda still crashes on incoming calls.
maybe there's some problem waking up from standby mode?
edit2: the problem occurs only when the pda is in standby. the last 2 days i had standby deactivated, and it never crashed. the only problem is the power consumption.
edit3: this seems to be a wm6-only problem (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397973)
Guys, I'm noticing i'm having this problem, where by the bottom bar for the windows today screen, is appearing everywhere, especially during volume adjust.
For example, i click volume button, it will bring me to the volume screen right? if i look very very carefully at the bottom, i can see a very opaque image of the bottom bar, even sometimes with the words "calendar" and "contacts" visible! a soft reset immediately solves this, but after a while the problem comes up again.
I've tried the following roms
Aztor
Dutty
Diamond rom
Swift SBL
all with this same issue. Is it a bug, or is it a hardware problem? I tried taking a screenshot and the screenshot does not show the opaque "ghost like" bottom bar with the words calendar and contacts.
I tried switching off Touch Flo 3D, and sometimes after a while, it appears again. It can be best seen when the screen is black (not off, just black) especially when volume adjusting.
Is it just me, hardware problem screen problem, or a rom bug that everyone has?
just to clarify again, despite it being visible to my eyes, SPB screenshot does not show this "ghost like" image, and it looks perfectly fine in the screenshot
I dont see that but I think it can be a sort of 'memory' thing of the lcd-screen.
Same problem here
Hi!
I have the same problem here...
the Ghosting comes after using the phone a lot so I think it might be because the phone heats up.
All the roms I tried have the problem so I think its an hardware issue.
Just keep your screen off for a while (not the phone) and I think it goes away.
Also TF3D has nothing to do with it...The problem happens with or without it on.
If anyone has a soln I'd love to hear it!
great to see that i'm not the only one. was worried sick that it was a hardware problem
Hi Baronic i've nothis more than a month back... see this thread..

So you or me r not alone..
I used to be worried whether over next few days or weeks whether my screen will get worst, hence i used to keep screen very low brightness (with Spb shell)..
Over last 4-5weeks atleast there is no progress of the screen problem although it still persists..
Not finding a final answer, i've stopped bothering about it and just enjoy my diamond..
U r a senior member so, If u find an answer please dont forget to PM me..
Forgot to mention a tip... Keep brightness lowest and you'll never see it again.. (Although i like my screen to be brightly lit!!)
oh i didnt see those threads. primarily cuz i didnt know wat term to search for lol. if its a memory problem i think it can be fixed. will try and see how it goes, i'll experiment
