i am running black shadow with radio 1.43 and i have the same problem, the response time for hangup on shadow is really long!! i have to press the red cancel button 4-5 times to get a call to end
Try the latest LSVW 0616, it functions well and seems very stable.
Good luck.

Excuse me but was that REALLY helpful? If I was to post "my Chevy truck won't turn off" would you post "get a Ford truck, they do"??
(no, my post wasn't helpful either)
anyone else have this problem or know how to fix??
I had the same problem with the 143 radio.. First I installed the 141 radio and then reinstalled Shadow. works fine now.Try reinstalling Shadow.
could this actually be the radio? only reason i ask is i had just flashed radio 1.43 and shadow at the same time, can someone please tell if it is jus a radio reflash or do i have to go through and reinstall shadow as well?
There is a new 3g dialler made available by Jasjamming at his new home that will now work on the Shadow rom, this will probably help you.

Actually that might be helpful because the Chevy maybe doesn't work. I have had the same problem with Shadow and had to switch. I am using 1.43 and Schap's 3.30b now and it seems to be better. Custel's worked ok too - waiting for his next update.
Mark
Edit - Based on other posts maybe I should switch to 1.41.
Is this what you do just to increase your post count?

Maybe it DOES work, just not for you. Be careful when you dis a ROM here my friend, especially when you're using the latest GSM.
I had the same problem with Black Shadow IV using Radio 1.43 and 1.41, Now i use 1.40 and it is working fine.
i have tried 1.43 and 1.41 and neither fix this, ill revert to 1.40 and see if that fixes it.

1.40 doesnt work either...
Hi jwagman1,
Dont have such a problem. When testing black shadow with 1.43 with different software, there was a lot of issues - in general the rom was very unstable etc. - almost permanently freezing. The test (not very scientific) showed that all kind of battery status software are causing problems - My solution was to reinstal the shadow only, not using any battery status packages, and the rom is performing really well now.
The problem might come also from some kind of incompatibility with the network of your carrier - as I got the 1.43 is not Hermes radio. Pumpiron579, who had the same problem also seems to be on Cingular
In such a situation I wll install new radio (e.g. 1.40), and new Rom (not shadow) too, and see.
Same problem with me on Shadow. Let's try Shadow lite or dymond 3.5 BS, it's work fine for me.
(radio 1.43)
dont mean to sound funny guys, bet everyone is trying radios and no-one is getting the right effect, might i suggest that it is a common problem within shadow.
I have tryed backdating 1.43 -> 1.41 -> 1.40 -> flashing to 1.38
this is getting silly now, 20 mins per flash lol i have been flashing for nearly 80 mins (if i was on a street i would have been arrested by now lol)
Same problem here Custel v2.5, Radio 1.40.30.00.
Hang up button (hard and soft) will not work 25%+ of the time.

Hi forum!
Before anything, thanks for your invaluable help and support, without it I would feel even more lonly on my PPC life
OK, said so...
I'm having currently some problems with the phone part of this great device. Sometimes when I answer a call (with the hardware key) it takes 2 to 3 seconds before I can hear anything from the person calling me. The same happens when I hang. It takes time to hang the conversation, so I never know if it's really hanged..
Lately I'm having also problems with the "today" app I think. It never shows up and the upper bar (status?) does not change when I receive a call.
I went trhu a hard resseting and restore (Sprite) process 1 week ago, but I had the phone problems before that...
Thanks a lot for your help.
by the sound of it, you have upgraded to the wm5.0 rom, i have these problems also, until there is a known fix for the minor bugs, with the today screen you can just go into settings and today, then come out again, and what wasnt there before should be there now, also , have you tried to upgrade the radio rom too??? 8)
thanks for your answer! But I'm currently using wm2003. Though I'm considering switching to wm5 now we can if I don't get a solution to this
I normally use the phone for work-job and this minor things annoys me big deal!

PLease, someone help!
I have a Softbank X01HT, using radio 1.38 since a while and installed recently LVSW's 04/08 ROM
My device crashed during a call today... And since... no reception anymore... I get "No service" in my comm manager...
Can someone help ? I tried hard reset... no effect... Still "No service"...
Does anybody have a clue of what's wrong ? Could my radio have died suddenly ? (Please dont flame me... I ahve searched about it but didnt find people having sucha problem without flashing anything new !)
Thanks for your help
I would try to reflash the radio and ROM. Not sure what the problem is, but reflashing would be my next try (after the steps you already took).
I had something similar happen the morning after installing Black 2.0 (i dont think it was related to Black 2.0 though) also using radio 1.38 (1.38.00.11 trinity GPS radio to be exact) where i completely lost all reception and no amounts of soft-resets or turning phone off / on made a difference. I was really busy at work so had to put it back in the belt holder and forget about it when after about an hour or two it suddenly surprised me and started ringing with an incoming call so had obviously come good without me realising.
Hopefully yours may do the same (are you using 1.38.00.11 too). If it doesnt i would suggest flashing a newer / older radio to see if you can revive it.

This is really weird...

Yeah it is a bit weird. I'm guessing as we both have the same 1.38.00.11 radio from the Trinity that it could have something to do with that. Thankfully, it has only happened the once for me so far but i will look at also upgrading to 1.40 if it happens again.
Let me know how you get on.
Oh and WooHoo my 100th post!!!

OK gotta go for radio 1.40 I guess...

1.40 seems to be working perfectly
I lost a whole Sunday... No idea what happened... But anyway took advantage of this to install a new ROM, new radio, etc...
Exactly the same has been happening to me. No idea what it is. Might try an earlier Radio to see if that fixes it.
silly basic thing, but make sure flight mode is off
I made sure of that, just had no reception. Really strange, but I was getting missed call notifications and voicemails and texts coming through.
Think the camera on my 8525 was working fine lastly before i downgraded my Radio to 1.40...I have tried updating firmware n number of times still the camera wont work...Hardreset softreset nothing is bringing the camera back...tried 3rd partycam tools and it launches and disappears in a sec... searched the forum and looks like im the only one...
Anyone have any suggestions ? do you think i burnt my camera or something?I do have an option to get it sent back..but wanted to see if someones suggestion here helps fix it so others can learn from me...
It was on black 3.01 when it was last working and tried everyones roms after it didnt work..

Ok its fixed now... Dont know what fixed it... maybe the constant upgrade of roms or the ppcreset... or pulling the battery out and leaving it for 10 mins... But finally i dont have to send it in for a refurb... Thanks for anyone who looked and thought of a solution... If anyone else has this again they can try all the things i tried...
1) Upgrade/ Downgrade Radio multiple times.
2) upgrade SPL multiple times.
3) Try all the cooked roms
4) Revert back to ATT wm5 rom.
5) Reset device with Reset PPC
6) SuspendPPC (These i found in the black rom under system Folder)
7) Pull the battery out for 10 Mins.
Hopefully something in this combo works... cant point out which since i did too many things...
This forum is great with info available here Thanks to all the chefs,the guides and WIKI.
Cheers...
Disappearing Camera? Me Too.
My Camera Disappeared a few days ago, the hardware button on the spine does not bring it up and the application does not run, it just brings up the photo viewer. I even run the exe and get nothing. Also note, "Brighter Screen" does not work nor "Bigger Screen". For the record it's a Hermes100 and its running ROM Pro BLACK 3.0.1 and Radio 1.41.00.10.
I am looking all over, but I can't find anyone with the proper solution. May I should take my Cingular 8525 back and see what they say, they are probably going to say it was my fault when they see the new radio and Rom, but the problem happened with the original ROM.

Did you do everything i mentioned above?
try different combinations. I had the exact same rom and radio as you...
when i downgraded the radio it took the camera out for some reason.
If i were you i will try different things before the last option of sending it back for a refurb.
Good luck
Hi ,
I noticed this on all the WM6 Roms ( never even used the real WM5 ATT ROM)
But when you open the qwerty keyboard and start typing fast the light goes off and then when you press any botton it goes back on. I`m just wondering if its my unit or is it just ROMs flaw ? I didnt see anyone talking about this so I`m starting to think its my unit. Thanks in advance.
Mine's done that. It usually goes off when the phone tries to do something else, like checking or downloading email.
Also, turn off the word suggestion feature, that just caused problems such as missed letters, and I think it added to the light turn off problem as well.

i don't think it particularly happens on wm6. it happened when i used jap wm5 by softbank, and it still happens with lvsw. thought it was more like a hardware issue.

it used to happen to me on black pro 3.0
It's happened on all WM6 ROMs that I've tried (Custel, LVSW, JJ). There was a dicussion on this, and changing the word completion helped but did not completely resolve the issue.

I use karma 11.3 to, yes no all time. Now i use u2us 1.05 and works well without problems.
Try this version and says something
I already use that version too (1.05). When the call is one of the contacts that i have foto, it doesn't have problems to display. The problem is when it was supposed appear only the phone number and the name of the person sometimes it turns black or rings but anything appear on the visor. Strange thing. I use u2us since the first version and i never had this problem...still now. Thanks anyway.
check this settings in S2U2
In S2U2 settings, check if " Blank screen on talk " is OFF ( both on Battery / External power )
Im using it and find no problem whatsoever on a g77 opal rom.
