now pda doesn't turn on and there is no light indicator for charge status
please, help me getting lovely artemis put right)
Hi, sintipon
I got the same prob, its started a few days ago, i can get it on sometimes but then it just locks up and when i try touch the screen it just flashes. I'll let u kno if ii find anything.
If u get anything please let me kno.
Mine is like that for sa month now... No luck whatever i tried... I went to service, and the told me that the board was off and i need a new one! Very expensive, i will change phone!!
will u think that this situation maybe relate to flash the device's rom??
or relate to some particular software which may lead to this crash??
display becomes black or becomes white..
hello guys ..
im sorry to tell you that if you encounter this kind of problem your Artemis is already crash.... and nothing to do with but to send it to service center. thats a CPU problem.
its ok if you flash your Artemis with the softwares you found here but be care you must know whats the function of the SW before you install . may be you did to much over clock on your cpu. Our cpu is only 201 Mhz. hmmppp..
last tym i try also to over clock tell 300 but 10 seconds later my display becomes white heheh... so change cpu..
may be 247Mhz is ok, like Artemis Touch over clock.
also a lesson for me..

I have this wierd experience with my Imate PDA2K, yesterday, when I open my phone (imate pda2k), the screen suddenly flicker... and then it fades. so i did a soft reset, as i thought would help me out of the problem...But to my surprise, nothing happened, it goes on flickering and fading, until such time, that the screen totally faded, all you can see is a whjite screen with no thing visible.. after minutes of doing a hard reset, still nothing happened, i leave that **** phone on the shelf. after 30 minutes, I checked it and all things back to normal, the screen was ok till a couple of hours, and that same problem happened again till now... What im gonna do? I always end up as if I will throw that silly damn phone to the trash can.. hehe.. What could be the problem then? Is the poroblem was on the LCD? Will the upgrade to v1.40.. solve this? Pls any idea, im desperate
u could try upgrading to 1.40but if that wont work, or if u rather not, if its still under warrenty, get ur provider to fix it.
Hey.. kan anybody help me?. My P3300 goes black several times a day?? i have flashed it back to its original ROM to check if that would help, but i didn´t.
The phone just goes black and i cant turn it on again without soft-resetting it. Sometimes the screen flicker and some stribes are showing across the screen before it turnes black??
I hope you can help me
Best regards Michael
i had the same problem, i send it to repair by t-mobile and they changed the lcd screen problem fixed
Seems to be a common problem, as I have exactly the same with my P3300. Send and email to the HTC customer support to ask if it could be a software issue (no reply yet) - but now that I read this post I guess I can send my device for repair right away...
I don't think the LCD is to blame for this issue. (why would the phone firmware "crash" - and unable to reboot ? )
@MicTh : those updates you've installed ? were they recent Mobile6 (B&B > 4.1, Vanilla 2.0,.. ?) from this board ?
I've got the same problem, T-Mobile replaced my handset twice (new IMEI) - reason "motherboard replaced" ???
I DO believe that USPL unlock is causing this problem now - too many MDA 3c's failing - while HTC 3000 / Orbits seem to run fine.
No.. I run the original WM6 ROM
No.. I run the original WM6 ROM, and I have also switched back to the one it came with, but i does not help
I'm getting this problem too... screen fades to black, and only way to re-start is to soft-reset. I have had two new motherboards in my original, and now HTC have replaced with a new unit, with factory WM6 and problem is the same. I was wondering if it was anything to do with software, as i do have a number of applications installed - but which one is to blame?
After I removed Spb Time, my P3300 works fine (for a week now)
pnyg
do I have sbp time? (is it "standard" or 3rd party s/w?) if I do, how do I remove it?
no, I've not got spb time, so its not that in my case....
I also experienced this problem when I installed Meschle 3.01 ROM. Cant remember if its vanilla or full version as I installed both.
I am now back to Original WM6 WWE from HTC. No problem at the moment.
first hang-up end with black scream
I have the same problem..I think
started with WM5 ..but even with WM6 is the same!
Problem description:
first of all app is hanging (ones a week)
first time rest ,its trying to start windows but will hang-up by start-up windows
second rest hangs on white scream (with WM version number)
further resetting doesn't help
white scream changes to black (some times in columns) and them totally black
some time the black scream is flashing
can any one help me?
i don’t know what to tray anymore? I think is some Hardware issue?

I've had at least 3 separate P3300s with this problem. I'm sure its a hardware issue, and I have finally persuaded my supplier to refund 75% of my purchase price, so I can buy something different. I am sure HTC must know this is a problem, but the uk repair centre seem unable to fix it, presumably as its a batch problem, and all the boards they have are faulty.
i have exactly the same problem with my Dopod M70 (Artemis300). Maybe it have some problem in the motherboard design which HTC should let us know
My orbit do the same, when it boot win everythink is working fine. Someone did say: When you apply pressure, it fade to black. I think it maybe have something with the housing design or battery.

I think i solve my own problem, after hours, i found out when we press in the back phone, near the display cable position, the screen become black and hang immediatetly. so i try to open back cover, remove cable and motherboard. Use alcohol to clean the contact display cable then put its together. Tighten motherboard, and wow, my Dopod M700 are back to life again, now how hard i press, everything stay fine. No strange behavitor for 5 days. GREAT!!!
Hope everyone think my experience useful

No it is easy(much easier than TyTN) to open Orbit/P3300, you have intructions in the wiki. First you check if you have right tools...

I find that if you apply pressure on the outside casing at approximately where the simcard would be it switches itself off....
Yes it's your post. I have same problem. My orbit is working fine all day, but it is on the desk, didn't touch it. I bought P3300 housing, so I will change it, maybe it fix a problem.
I have a problem with my Artemis. I'll try to decribe the problem and if anyone can help me i will be thankful.
When is Power on it works few minutes than it freeze and screen desapears. After that I try to power but it doesnt work. It needs time to accept the Power comand and I don't know where problem is... (i thing that it's about temperature but i'm not sure)
I tryed to flash with later software and win mobile 5 but the same thing happens.
Any help?
Please specify which applications you have installed and eventually which ROM.
I strongly recommand you to flash your device with latest ROMs like Black and Blue one or others (see the Windows mobile 6 section of Artemis)...
A hard reset would solve your problem anyhow I suppose.
Are you overclocking your CPU with some software? like BatteryStatus for example?
Please let us know...
Gues i fixed the problem
It not was about ROM... I have tryed flashing with Black & Blue, Vanilla etc. but the problem was the same. When I put the Phone in the pocked it freezes. Meybe it was problem with cooling.
Anyway I used a tutorial how to upen the phone, i opened it, cleaned it (using spray for clean) and now it works fine i gues.
Thanks a lot...

I had the same problem with mine....
The phone is fecked take it back to the makers and get a replacement..
I had the exact same problem with my P3300. It's a malfunction in the Motherboard. I've called the dutch helpdesk and because a hard reset didn't do much good the PDA was picked up later that day to be sent to Eurotwice, the repair station in Belgium. I got my phone back 2 weeks later, I started it and it froze again! So I immediatly called HTC Netherlands and again, the P3300 was picked up by UPS that afternoon. The second time I wrote a letter to the repair station and sent it with my phone. In another topic on another website I read that some other phone with the same problem had been fixed by replacing the motherboard. I got my phone back today and it works great! It hasn't crashed today, and I have confidence it won't in the future. So my tip to you and anyone who experiences this problem: Call the HTC helpdesk in your country and ask them to sent your PDA to a repair station. It might take a while but they fix it well! By the way, you have 2 years full garantee so it didn't cost me anything! Great service from HTC!
Had the same problem.
Power was on, then de screen went black and stayed black even after pushing the right upper side button. Had about 4.90mb free storage memory on the phone and 200mb on my card left.
Soft reset didn't work but a hard reset did!
I have the same problem for the last week
I tried to change Roms to original and back to manila, the same problem.
the artemis freeze suddenly without ant reason. after calls, before calls..
it's not wake up and it's show a blank screen. after few soft reset and battery replacement is wake up and work fine till the next time.
for now , I'm work with doppod original rom wm5 but no WIFI.
I think it started last week when I installs "B&B 5.0 love" rom, before that It work fine with pdviet manila2D.
problem upgrade my rom
I'm now have a O2 UK roms on my device.
I try update it to Touch 4.02, with the UPSL but it no working.
the bar with percents jump from 0% to 100% in sec. and I still having the same rom.
I read the uspl guide.
can yo uhelp me ?
Hi all
My t-mobile MDA III has developed a problem in the last 2 weeks in that it keeps locking up. When you look at the phone its looks fine, the green light is flashing away but when you try and switch it on, nothing happens and I have to do reset before it comes back.
I've tried changing the rom, I was using Black & Blue v5 for a few months and it was fine but that hasn't helped.
One thing I have noticed is regardless of which ROM I use, when the phone starts up it always says "Black & Blue v5"
A hard reset hasn't helped either
Any ideas?
Similar problems in here, without the "Black and Blue V5" situation.
I've allready exchange the battery, but with no success...
I've given up to be honest, I was on a call the other day and it switched itself off! I'm back using my old Nokia :-(
I'm due an upgrade with T-mobile but they can't make up their minds about when they are going to release the Diamond2, I guess I just have to wait.
Hi,
I'm dealing with this bug since the beginning..how often does it happen to you?Does it happen with a clean ROM,what apps do you install? In my case it's not so frequent but very annoying because,as you said, from outside the device looks like perfectly working (green light blinking)..but you can't even receive a call! As a result you have a nice brick in your pocket or desk without knowing it. Anyway I still think this could be a sofware problem...I have apparently the same bug when i do a full backup with Spb Backup:when finished and restarts automatically after 15 sec it goes into this "black screen" deeeep sleeep. Eveything goes ok if I manually choose to restart my device.My ROM is equipped with S2U2 running just after you switch on the screen,maybe it could crash the whole phone occasionally, cannot prove it...going to disable it and see. These are only impressions (and no solutions) but I can say that this problem occurs to me more frequently when i play hard with my Artemis (I mean flashes..install-uninstall things..). When the pocketpc is in normal use i must admit it's quite stable. All this to tell that hopefully the device is not broken...I got one motherboard already replaced and I can tell you that the symptomes where different (fading screen...watch out folks).
Ah,by the way: That "Black&Blue v.5" screen you have is the splashscreen from an old rom you flashed that hasn't been replaced by anything because maybe new roms you put afterwards didn't include any..You can take a look here to change your splash screen:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317726

I'm afraid this is a hardware failure, unfortunately I don't have the repair papers with me at the moment (i'm abroad).Try to take a look in internet,I'll do the same and tell you if I find something,keep tracking this thread! Ciao
Edit: there is a Customer Care Area at htc.com where you can write an email or call them. Here's a list of phone numbers from all over Europe: http://www.htc.com/it/CA_Hotline.aspx found with Google.
Edit again:If you consider to replace it yourself,you should take a look in eBay..it may be cheaper.
Will do that.
Tried other options, but ebay is suspicious..you can find something cheap..but what if it is the same like mine??
btw..today I got reply from O2 uk...warranty is expired for 1 month!!!!
....
Well .. Now here's what .. When I'm on roaming ...
The screen at times, doesn't unlock ..
hitting any button (including the unlock button) yields to nothing.. the screen just won't turn on ..
After repeatedly jamming some keys .. the screen unlocks. .. and everything works just fine .. till the next time, which could happen at anytime :/
What's sad is .. that my Wave's LCD , at times, doesn't even turn on while receiving calls..
What's up with this ??
There's also a ton of other issues..
I'm running 1.2 bada..
The phone just reboots randomly from the home-screen
The interface gets REAL laggy at times.. with nothing in the background.
Also , SIM REFRESHING Esp. just as a call drops out .. the network'll go offline for anything like 5-10 minutes!!
This is rendering the phone unusable!!
Am off to the service center to ask the m for a fix/replacement/ credit note
Just don't know what to say to them!
If any1 lives in India , any Idea of how the Samsung RMA system works ?? I've had to put up with hell when I got my HTC fixed in Okhla
+thanks to all those who contribute
Maybe you can reset your phone before giving it Samsung service center
That can be done from the settings menu
Best Regards
HEY!
Thanks for the reply !!
Well , the whole point was to simply get a new phone.. I'm going to try to get it swapped out for an S or a credit note..
The problem being-- I've been with bada long enough , and I refuse to wait even another month for the 2.0. I have another wave 2 at home , so can flash that and see how things work out later.. but for the time being , I need to get rid of this phone.
It's OBV. a software problem that manifests as a hardware problem.. at least it seems so
Anyway ,. my two months in Delhi have been marred by this phone virtually packing up as and when it likes.. so it's time to get a move on.
Just wanted to check whether mine was an isolated case, or whether these were permanent flaws in the device..
I did factory reset my phone after I installed 1.2 ( even that was not without heartache ) . Didn't help on my weekend trips out of station at all..
