Hi everyone,
I have recently purchased an XDA2i from O2 and have an ongoing problem.
The unit has been exchanged once already as the original was thought to be the cause.
The VERY annoying problem is that my XDA keeps turning itself off when the signal gets low or is lost?
I've checked the main power save settings along with those in the o2 screen but the unit still does it.
Could any of you wonderful people shed some light on the problem? :?

Moved to the Blue Angel forum (coz that is the correct forum for this question).

What do you mean, it turns itself off? You mean the screen turns off, or do you mean that the phone part turns itself off (so that you get the X instead of the signal strength icon)?
How do you turn it on again once it's done this?

The green light at the top right of the xda flashes but to turn the unit back on I have to soft reset it by pressing the reset button (bottom left) as the power button will not work??? :?
If I can not sort it by tomo she'll be going back and I'll sadly be havin to go back to a standard phone. :?

The XDA2i isnt a blue angel is it? :?

Sometimes the on button takes a second or two to work. It's not *always* instant. Try pressing it as normal and waiting up to five seconds. You might find that the machine springs into life. (I don't mean press and hold - just a normal momentary press.)
I thought the XDA IIs was the Blue Angel, but I'm not sure.

Yes, HappyGoat made an error. The XDA IIi is an Upgraded XDA II with a faster processor and wifi. The XDA IIs is the Blue Angel.

Yup...my bad....should have moved it to Himalaya...and do these things when I am not drinking beers...

XDA Orbit Screen Problem

Hi Guys.
I've had my orbit for about 3 weeks now, and its been perfect. I had a spare 512mb microSD card lying about so I used that, but my 2Gb microSD card came in the post yesterday.
I put the card into the phone, and then plugged the phone into my computer via USB. The screen turned off, and no matter what I did, it wouldn't come back on.
I reset it using the small button on the side (sticking my stylex pen into it) and it restarted itself, showing the splash screen no problem, but as soon as you would expect the Today screen to show, the screen goes off. It get's weirder, because if I hold down the camera button to turn that on, the screen switches itself on, and you can use the camera no problem. If i hit the windows key, the menu appears, but if I try clicking an icon, the screen goes dead again.
Also, sometimes (not always, don't ask why) if I leave it for a couple of minutes, the screen slowly appears, as if the backlight is very very dim. But the second i tap anywhere, or touch a button, it goes off again.
I can still answer calls, and my alarms still go off. The phone seems to work perfectly, but just not the screen. I think that it might be the backlight having been turned so far down its off, but I don't know how I would go about reseting that.
Sorry for the long story, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

have you tried to make a hard reset?

Man I had the exact sane issue. Its to do with the backlight. I had to angle the screen to try and see anything on it, then changed the backlight to full and made sure it didnt switch off after certain time, everything fine since then. dont know how it happened.

exactly like fubofo wrote,try to unplug,screen should be visible again, check backlight prop.-and plug it in.

i have the same problem this appears sometimes.I think this is a damn bug that appears randomized.It happend to me like 6 times.I have the o2 xda orbit with german o2 rom.What's about yours? it dims the light under the normal makeable settings this sucks.And the camera works because the light settings goes automaticly to the highest settings in camera mode.

Hi guys,
I remember having that problem but it was when I tried some programs, including HTC X-button and another called Invisible Shooter. I haven't got any further incident after uninstalling them.
Do you think what you've encountered with may also link to some program you've installed?

Totally confirmed! Had same issue after replacing a touch screen. Thanks, guys, for a clue!

Tom B&B4.1 lite, screen crashed out

First many thanks to Tom for his great job.
I just intalled the 4.1 lite, and I also put back the softs I used in b&b4.0, but when I did a soft reset, I can not get the screen light up, the screen was just like dead, but the blue light of middle scroll ball works.
Now I get back to b&b 4.0 trying to figure out what is the problem.

CPU scale problem
I had a similar problem with the full version when the Artemis turn to sleep mode but the screen lit with a soft reset. I just deactivate the CPUscale option in BatteryStatus to make the screen lit again as before.

Me too had the same problem... the phone seemed to be working but no display... had to hard reset my orbit and it seems to be working fine for almost 2 days now.
Also the Brightness adjustment shortcut in HTC Home didn't work using it seems to be the problem for me

I had the same problem ...

I have the same problem
Don't know if it's because of installing some certain programs.

I also had this problem with the full version when the Artemis turn to sleep mode but the screen lit with a soft reset. When I tapped the screen the screen went black again (installed on it: tomtom, CM11.b, used softkey to change contact to use CM) . Did a hard reset yesterday today everything is fine but I havn't installed anything on it

if i use the xp off thing i get this everytime! use the power button on the side now mucho better

Hi, I had the same issue. after a soft reset.
To resolve it :
- Connect HTC to PC or power supply -> Light comes back
- Go to Settings / System / Backlight
- Move the brightness setting for "On battery power" to more bright.

Screeen off

Hi,
my XDA Orbit have the screen off.
I can activesync the PC, and I can flash the engine.
Now I have the original OS from O2 but the screen is off.
I suppose that the screen is not broken because sometimes is on (yesterday the screen show the HTC logo screen) but it doesn´t work.
I can access to bootloader mode too but I can´t see something on the screen, I don´t see the three colors on the screen, it is black and it don´t work.
When I power on the Orbit it syncs with the PC but the screen continues black.
I made soft reset and hard reset but it didn´t make something. I flashed it with others OS but nothing.
I don´t know what can I do.
help me, please
thank you

I had an issue like that waaaay back. Though mine was to do with the baclight settings, I just tried to navigate to backlight settings while out in the sun.
This doesnt seem to be your problem though as you say you have actually managed to flash new ROM to it?

will it be a software or/and a hardware problem?
thanks

Probably hardware as you say you have flashed new ROMs to it and still it shows nothing,
