White screen with 6.1 - HTC Excalibur

I've been running the 6.1 rom for about a week now and I'm seeing an issue where when the phone is synced with the pc or when I'm in the middle of a phone call the screen goes all white. I quick key press and it goes back to normal but this keeps happening over and over.
I tried reflashing the rom, reverting to official tmobile then reflashing 6.1 and it still does it.
Anyone else?

Touch JOGGER 3 times in 10 seconds will open Lowlight.Attention,this will maybe make your backlight always on if you don't close it.
in 080318 this function has been closed as default

That did the trick! Thanks!

My phone recently started doing this as well. I try tapping the jogger bar 3 times, but doesn't seem to do anything. I'm I missing something this seems too simple for even me to mess up...

yep, i dont understand that lowlight thing, might make me sound like a dumbass haha.
i did the lowlight, and the screen popped up. iono what was there to do.

Hey just want to state that the 3 click thing was unchecked on my phone when i installed kavana 6.1 so i've click on it and i'll report back what happenes.

We'll it seems clicking the 3 in 10 seconds option in the jogger options keeps the white screen from poping up on me, will keep posted soon.

White Screen
So it i havent had anymore issues today, click on 3 in 10 option in Jogger settings.

Seems to be pretty stable now for me seems better with the 3 in 10 setting checked.
will report if i get it again.
Microsoft branded S621 Pro WM6.1 6.1 Made in Taiwan overclocked to 288 stable.

Wonder if someone could make one, a visual plug-in be sweet the pocket pc verson has a visual plug-in, so i'm surprised this one doesn't.
pocket pc verson: HHCv10final.cab
plug-in for visuals HTC-Home-pluginv1-0.cab

Why did this happen?

Using my Cingular 8525, was using Black 2.0 with no problems, but wanted to try LVSW's newest ROM, so I flashed to that. It ran good, but battery life was horrible, so I wanted to go back to Black 2.0, so I flashed to it. Re-installed everything, but my camera didn't work, if I pressed the button nothing happened. I did a hard reset, no luck, I reflashed Black 2.0, still wouldn't work.
My solution was to flash to an older LVSW ROM, and that worked, my camera was back. So, I flashed again to Black 2.0, and everything is fine.
What happened to my camera?

I was about to flash back to Cingular ROM and do a warranty exchange!
I'm running Black 2.0 on 8525 w/o camera issue.
You may want to remap the buttons, that's all I can think of.

No, it wasn't a button issue. If I went to start/programs and chose camera, nothing happened.
But, like I said, it's all working fine now after 4 million re-flashes.

pervert, quit flashing just for your camera.. i mean phone.. um
sounds like a weird issue though, but like they said before.. sometimes things happen.. the unexplainable mystery's of your phone...
it could be that your physical camera might have intermittent issues
I actually have the same issue. I have been running Black 2.0 now for a couple weeks or better (awesome build JJ) with no issues whatsoever, until about 3 or 4 days ago the camera stopped. Same issue as posted, button doesn't work, I tried going to the exe file, nothing. I tried loading a 3rd party program that is supposed to be better then the OEM Cingy camera program, it would flash up for a second and then disappear.
I am keeping my fingers crossed that JJ is going to come out with 2.5 and I will reflash my ROM and see if it comes back.
Funny, I have used the camera like 3 or 4 times since I got it...wouldn't have missed it but came across a pretty cool photo contacts/dialer program that I want to start using....went to use the camera for my first contact....and nothing.
JJ if your readin...please let me know if you release a Black 2.5, I would be all over it bud.
Cheers
Whats the Photodialer program called ? I was dissapointed in the 8125 and 8525s built in picture contacts, I mean if this sucker can do video calls why wouldn't they let me atleast have a pic of who I wanna call lol. Sometimes I think they treat this too much as a phone first and PDA second.
I believe it is called V2R PhotodialerPPC. Pretty cool compared to a few others I have tried. It is a today plugin, actually similar to the "Five" where you can rotate through the images with your 5-way. When you select a contact it makes that one active and then allows you to switch through that contact's different numbers rather then most others where you can only select one number from that contact.
Now if I can just get my camera working again on my 8525...
Cheers

Do you start up and shut down your phone often enough for it to matter?
I upgraded, mine doesn't do that... I don't see an option to turn it on?

you sure you upgraded to the release or did you get the beta?
my phone is vibrating too on power on/off...
Mine is vibrating too. I can live with that though
i find I am keeping the phone in my pocket and then restarting it more often. This is the best feature of teh upgrade IMO
The release, or what everyone is saying is the release (it has the media control thing on the homescreen, I guess the beta didn't?)

i can live with it too but its annoying.
Mine is doing it, I think there's something wrong with my phone, vibrate in general doesn't always work on it, and when it does, it's weak.
Anyways -- not sure why anyone would consider this change to powering up/down an issue...?
well i happen to find it annoying and if anyone happens to figure out where the vibrate commands are located i would like to know.
i have been looking off and on and have not found anything yet.
why do people like to turn off the startup/shutdown animations and sound?
seems like the same issue to me.
the HTC s620 has always done it. No idea why they thought this was an important feature, but I'm at least used to it already since I have been running HTC's firmware since it was released.
-Mc
For some reason, the "official release" ... it that's what it is... has been defaulted to vibrate. Go into your profiles and select Normal
i change my profile all the time.
currently its on normal.
did this work for you??
for me, it dosent matter what profile i am on. the phone always vibrates at startup/shutdown...
my dash is also vibrating on startup/shutdown... i think it's t-mobile dash wm6 default...

Light Goes off when typing Fast (I think)

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.

Interesting.... I just started having this problem as well. I went hard reset... not solved. I re-flashed (using proper procedure)... and it was solved for a couple of days... and then returned.
I then used the forum search function, crazy how that works and found this thread.
Hope that helps.
Are you using maniac's AutoKeylock ?
I have experienced this issue ever since loading Rose ROMs - didn't happen on earlier ones.
However, this last time I flashed to the latest update, I did not install AutoKeylock immediately after flashing. I left this off as I had noticed that the screen was going white 30 seconds into calls (which was the timeout I had configured in AutoKeylock) and I wondered if there was a correlation.
Can anyone else who has seen the issue comment on whether they use AutoKeylock or not. It is possible there is some change in the ROM that AutoKeylock does not handle well.
Thanks.

I think that the WSOA (white screen of annoyance) is tied to the low-light function and joggr bar. Go to joggr settings, and be sure that the checkbox with the lowlight function is disabled.
I had the white screen issue for a few days, tried everything.....as soon as I uninstalled GlyphCache 65535 found here, the problem went away

it comes and goes its just something messed up that happenes probably nothing to worry about, just little anoying is all.
Check power management registry settings
Hi,
I had this problem once and fixed it by changing the registry settings that control what happens when the device enters various power states. Search the forum about this as the answer is in there somewhere Hope this helps.

THe simple Answer is it is the ATT rom. IT is so loaded with crap that is freezes alot. Best advice would be to flash a custom rom.

Best I can say is the get Clean Ram, and advanced config from dev and hacking and make some minor adjustments and see if that helps.
