Mod, please move my message to Hermes WIN Mob 6 forum
I upgraded to WM 6 with the repackaged version of the ROM WM6 Dopod WWE 3.54.707.3 yesterday and mighty pleased with it, however I have one problem and I do not know if it is ROM related or just some setting I've screwed up in the process of changing a lot of settings.
When I turn off the phone in Comm manager and turn it on later the phone will not find the network and keeps asking for the phone pin. Entering the PIN you can see it searching on the antenna icon at top of the Today screen but then it just pops up the Phone PIN screen repeatedly.
The only way to get the phone back on is a soft reset. Pretty annoying as I turn off the phone regularly each day
Also I do not have the old flight mode/wifi balloon now when tapping on the antenna/wifi icons in main sceen, I assume this has been dropped from WM5?
Any ideas guys?

Do a Hard Reset then test the ROM out for a few days. If you are not satisfied with it try one of the cooked WM6 versions (since they are superior).
Thanks
I will play with it as you suggest, also forgot to mention the keyboard no longer illuminates :-(
My radio too is an old version 1.03.03.10. Should I upgrade it first before flasing another ROM ( I have Hard Spl loaded OK)
After adding all my email settings for different accounts and loading apps I don't feel like a change of ROM for a few more days ;-)
Thanks,
Al
i think the problem is with your radio, try any radio at least 1.23 and above
I've been on WM6 since the second day I had my hermes, about 3-4 months ago. I've been on 4 or 5 different trips on planes requiring flight mode. Various LSVW and Sleuth ROMs used with various radios from 1.38 and on...
Not once, despite many layovers, have I had an issue with the phone not coming out of flight mode.
So, in my experiance, no, not a WM6 bug.

I have almost the same problem, but in my case it doesn't ask for PIN code. If I disable PIN request, everything is fine. Try to do the same and see if it's OK. This is the first ROM with this behaviour, but I can live with it in exchange of the amazing speed and phone respondivness !
I haven't seen this problem, but I do see a problem with opening a data connection after being in Flight Mode. It tries to connect to the provider 3-4 times (with quick connects), and then fails with an unable to connect message. At that point, I need to reset in order to connect to data again.
seems to be like the same problem that i am having!! i think its linked to the SOD bug, my herm100 continously reboots the 'radio' part of the phone.. when making a call the phone shows full signal however after placing the call the signal drops before connecting and it searches again for network... im sure that the phone is doing this whilst in standby mode too (maybe linking to the SOD problem) and since you've got you pin request on it seems to be cycling and asking for a pin code!! hope we can find a solution i've tried a few things but nothing seems to cure it!
Did anybody find a solution to this? My TyTn does the same
Hello,
I have a strange problem with my HTC Artemis (O2 XDA branded, bought in Germany, no lock)
It behaves unstable and indeterministic.
Unstable means that it crashes/stucks or turns off.
Indeterministic means that it happens when i plugg it to charger, when i'm syncing, when a phone rings, when using applications/tomtom or just i arrive to work and i find the device off.
When it crashes or i find it off, the biggest problem is to boot the device. It takes me typically 10mins, when i'm always trying to press the power button, push the reset button or unplugg the battery for a while in random order until i bring it to work.
After first crach, the device also often crashes or stucks again during the boot process.
Once, the device was so dead, that it took me two days to bring it into bootloader mode and then i could at least flash the ROM.
All these was happening with ARTEMIS TOUCH 4.01 WWE - LITE NO CUBE.
Yesterday, i switched to ARTEMIS TOUCH 4.02 WWE - LITE NO CUBE (burned FW twice) without installing any other applications and the problems are still here
My personal feeling is that it is getting every week worser.
When i bought the device (eBay), there was original FW with Win Mobile 5 on it, i immediately flashed to ARTEMIS TOUCH 3.01(?) WWE - FULL WITH CUBE, i can only remember that that time I had a problem with gsm radio - from time to time i found it stucked/off - to bring it to work i had to reset the device. So i flashed to 4.01 and this issue was away, but approx 2months ago, the above described behaviour has started and nowdays i'm fighting with it 2-3x a day.
so, can anybody help?
GiZMo

I have a similar problem, what's really strange to me is, that as far as i can recall it started happening 2 months ago or so also!! weird huh...
my device simply reboots from time to time! even while i'm making a call.
the weird thing about these reboots is that when it comes back to live i do not have to enter my pin to enable the phone! everytime i perform a manual reboot (by software, using the pin or remove battery) i have to insert my pin to able to make a call...
i have upgraded from 3.01 full touch to 4.02 full touch about the time it started, i have now 4.02 vanilla touch but problem still occurs from time to time.
any ideas?
Im another one to join this boat!
Bought an MDA C 3, two days ago, bought of someone from gumtree.com.
Worked fine for the first hour, and then locked up - nothing on the screen, no LED. Only way to get it going was to remove battery and then press power button.
I upgraded the ROM from the original t-mob UK WM5 to mechles fine release: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371182
The lock-ups / crashes have now become rarer, on average every 4 hours (before was every 1 hour).
There is no pattern to them either, although I have saw the screen trun all corrupted just before it happens. The last one was caused when I pressed the 'start' button.
I'm on a T-Mob contract, and lost my Kaiser, got ripped of when I tryed to replace it by a tosser on here for $375 Thief on the loose thread, and was hoping my luck had changed when I bought this one!!
It is T-mob branded and I wonder if there isn't a fix on here, would T-Mob repair it under warranty??
same "issue" with no entering of PIN after reboot. But not always

Every other function or software keeps working ! The phone is just not receiving any calls or sms. So you can miss an entire day of calls and sms without knowing... Only when trying to call somebody the dialer says 'Dialing...' and nothing happens. No connection.
A soft reset is needed to get the phone working again.

btw, now i'm again trying to turn the device on, it's again stuck. grrr
Hello,
i had a few weeks ago a similar strange behaviour.
After changing the sd-card I had problems to turn the device on. After a hard reset it began to boot but hang.
The I flashed back to original O2 ROM. Then I had a unpredictable behaviour. Somtimes no sound. Sometimes I cound not be called. Sometimes Error message "no sim card". After every reset i had an other error.
Hard reset and flashing was no solution. Removing battery for less than 4 hours has no effect.
Then I wanted to send it back for repair. I took of the battery. The next day I wanted to try a last time and surprise: The device works fine without an error. Its hard to believe, but the removal of the battery for more than 8 hours was the solution.
Now I use it for 5 weeks without a problem.
regards
Andre
It is Happening to my device too!!
It stucks every 2-3 hours!Tried many of the cooked ROMs but nothing.Also tried all the radio roms for 1-2 days.still the same!
It stucks with no particular reason.SOmetimes in s2u2 sometimes when am receiving a call.... etc.
Had the pin problem too for 3-4 times!
I will try your sugestion ANDRE and we will see!
Also i will try flashing the original rom,cid unlock and then flash the cood rom twice!
Fingers crosed....

now, i will try to flash back original german o2 rom
I think mine is sorted now, thanks to a new battery.
Installed it on Wednesday and hasn't died/crashed once since then.
I did notice before that the battery was getting warm, and I stuck the handset on the vent of my AC in the car, and this seemed to make the phone more stable.
Got one from Deal Extreme or try the XDA shop.
It worked for me!!
bricked or not?
did my device get bricked?
last friday i wanted to change firmware and during step1-cid unlocking (device should never been cid locked) pda got stucked. So i unplugged it and since then i cannot turn it on or get it into bootloader mode.
the only proof of life is when I take away battery and plugg it to power supply, then the red diod turns on and off for 1/2sec.
any idea what to do?

is there any possibility to hard flash bootloader (when corrupt)? or the only way is to change the mainboard?

the good sign are the leds that means you have a very good chance...the guy made the piont...check the wiki
random crashes are often caused by hardware malfunction...sometimes the connection on the motherboard stuck,get broken or make a short-circuit...so check the hardware
Hi my P3300 ( artemis) has suddenly startet to freze and or turn it self off, only thing that helps is to take out and replace the battery, i have read all topics i could find with simmilar problems, and i was hopping it was my battery that was going old so i bought a new one, but it didnt help.
i have tried diffrent roms wont help,
i tried to "push" the battery closer to the conectors, no help and it's seems like its hard or software problem but not battery.
some times when i turn the device back on with out replacing battery it works but sometimes when i do like that it gets to HTC page showing rom info etc. then it fades out and i can see blackscreen but it "glows" and the phone is dead nothing works.
i chaged the screen a couple of months ago but the fault dosent seems to have with the screen to do.
It seems that it is a hardware issue. They replaced motherboard for me, it is working now.
hmmm i have no warenty left. and my phone does look used so i guess im screwd?
sorry for that..
an issue happened with me witha nokia mobile before and when i sent it to be fixed they told me there was a problem in the radio chip or something like that..
so try to install a different radio ROM ... that's all i can think of.
and sorry for your loss
i will try that, but the problem ocured before i change radio last time....
hmmm
I changed back to original HTC wm 6 (swedish) yesterday and the phone worked all day, and i thought i have solved my problem, but whilst driving my car for about 15 min and the phone was in placed in the a space in the middle of the dashboard under the stereo i found out when i toke it back up to call that it was dead......so i was wondering could it have something to do with heat or lost GSM coverage (thinking i have multiple faults on my artemis)
htc arte100 freezes on startup
can any one give solution for my arte100 it freezes on startup
how can i restore or put it on bootloader mode in order to upgrade it
thanks in advance
for the boot loader see the WIKI
if your device is unlock flash it with any rim you want.. if not get the original ROM for your mobile and then flash it..
for flashing try using RUU or the SD card flashing..
all can be found on the WIKI

something i forgott to try?! or is this expencive toy gonna be a toy for my 8 month old kid?
Artemis goes Dead
I'm having the same problem, and have worked the same solutions. I noticed this started when I also had my phone underneath the radio in my car.
Replace radio rom
Upgraded rom to 6.1
New Battery
Unlocked Phone
Last attempt was uploading active sync 4.5 since loading version 6.1
I've got no solution yet, just posting to let you know we are in the same situation.
I have read about similar problems in different forums, and the conclusion is that it's a hardware issue. When I sent it in for support, they replaced the motherboard. I guess, there is something smaller wrong but they just replace it all.
No way.
Replaced battery, took out SIM and SD, changed ROM (finally it was long enough at life), but still:
Display freezes, turns white - game over.
I give up.
Until a few days ago I was very happy with HTC and my Artemis.

Since the XDA site is so valuable, I’m trying to consolidate my efforts to make a legitimate contribution to the site. Hopefully this post can also be of help to others.
These are just notes on what I’ve been through so far with my Mobile Compact iii. Hopefully, someone more advanced than I, will read through and possibly troubleshoot the errors I may have overlooked.
Upon returning from Germany, I needed to re-flash my ROM with an English version. Version of choice was the Blue & Black cube with WM6, thanks to the developer(s).
BLACK & BLUE v5.0 ROM WM6.1 CE OS 19716 ( Build 19716.1.1.0 )
First I used the USPL to temp unlock the phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
I then loaded the Operating Version, and received many stalls and stops via the White Screen of Death. (I have some theories on the white screen of death, but do not have the knowledge to confirm) I suspect utilities are running in the background and are being loaded. Impatience at this point could quite possibly be my nemesis
Second, I loaded the unlock to permanently unlock the phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400445
I re-flashed my ROM again the B&B cube. Still the phone seemed unstable, was shutting down and getting the white screen of death. I hard booted the phone many times, soft booted, battery out, and through no tangible reason of thought, the phone just did what it wanted to. Start, not start, and hung up at various points in the boot process, died in the middle of Wal-Mart.
I tried the over-clock on WM6, using WM5 over-clocking. Talk about unstable. I couldn’t find and over-clock for WM6, but now know it is an option in the Blue and Black Rom. Anyway my phone went out completely. To the point of not being able to get past the initial flash screen where the OS and IS version displayed and that was it. Left the phone overnight, nothing.
In a last attempt, I used the SD mini flash option found in WIKI.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_SD_Card_Flashing
I used my printer SD card reader and the adapter supplied with the SD mini card. Home PC recognized the storage device, right click and format, then did the rename file (NBH file to ARTEIMG.nbh) as found on the WIKI SD Flash page. I initially tried without the format, and only got to the Red Green Blue (RGB) screen. Since I received no indication of status, I started over, formatted the mini SD, extracted the file to the SD, renamed, to ARTEIMG.nbh and I also extracted the B&B Cube WM6 Rom to the SD mini, for I found a couple of post indicating the ROM also needed to be on the SD. I followed the instructions, did the Boot-loader. (Power Button, Voice Button, and Rest with Stylus, release stylus, continue holding Power and Voice until upload prompt on the phone). I received the Update SD image, and followed the instructions. Here I got the prompts indicating status of uploads. OS 1 started to load, OS 2 loaded, phone when to RGB screen. I left the phone alone for 30 minutes at the RBG screen.
After 30 minutes, I rebooted the phone, and the phone went through setup and auto-detected my current carrier SIM card. Has been working for the past hour and 20 minutes.
Since the phone is running at the moment, I will wait and see. Next step is to load the original WM5 T-mobile version via active sync. If downloaded from the t-mobile site, the ROM update isn’t broken down enough to rename the NNBH file..
I’m also waiting to load a new radio version, for I’ve read that may be the cause of some of my problems.
Another theory I have is that T-mobile sent out kill phone code to stop my phone.
Any feedback from the Pros is very appreciated.
I have the same problem: Link to other thread
Apparently there are many devices with the same (more or less) problem.
I hope someone is able to tell what is malfunctioning....
My XDA Orbit went crazy today, first I couldn't start him at all, he wasn't react on "power button". After few attemts he finally started. I connected him to PC but he turned off after couple minutes. From this moment I can't start windows, it stops at starting screen (with IPL, SPL, GSM, OS). After a while screen starting to quakes (like a low frequency on CRT). I tried hard reset, it won't help and run it in bootloader mode but Orbit just reset.
Additonal info:
IPL 3.04.0001
SPL 3.04.0000
GSM 02.67.90
OS 3.4.0.0
ROM: Original WM6 from O2
Can anyone help me?
Have you tried a different barttery?
No, I didn't. I don't know anybody with artemis to borow another battery.
EDIT: I checked battery voltage, it's about 3,85V and now i noticed something, on battery sticker is printed it is for ARTE160 3.7VDC-1200mAh but on the phone it's printed ARTE200 5VDV-1A. Is that can cause the problem?
Finally I forced it to run in bootloader mode and flashed with the same O2 WM6 ROM. He started and I was abble to flash USPL and other ROM. It's better but still sometimes phone just poweroff with no reason

I bought a new battery but phone still turning off and freezes. Now I can't even turn it on, sometimes it starts but screen slowly fades away and after few seconds its only black screen with black light. It's propably a hardware problem but what?
EDIT: I started it, working fine when it's connected with pc but when I disconnect it freezes after couple of minutes.
flisak
open the device and check the screen is connected propperly, piss easy, just be very carefull.
if this does not work buy a new LCD.
Hi, I have the same problem with my Artemis, did anyone find a solution? Can be a problem with the LCD?
And plus one here. The device always turn off, and is difficult to turn on again. Rplaced battery and is the same.....
I've got an XDA Orbit that periodically hangs (full black screen and occasionally this seems to drain the battery very quickly). I've taken it apart and reseated the connectors and these all look ok.
Seems to happen when you're taking it out of a pocket to answer a call etc. Sometime it just requires a soft-reset but occasionally it just doesn't respond. In these instances I have found that twisting it slightly across the diagonal (top left to bottom right bending back slightly) and then resetting the device seems to bring it back to life and it's ok for a few hour/days again. If I leave it alone, i.e. not in my jeans pocket - it's fine, so think it's hardware related but not sure which bit is faulty - screen, touch-screen, mainboard etc.
If I bend it the same as above when it's working the screen goes screwy and causes it to crash so think it's definitely this is what's causing the device to crash. However, the clock seems to keep going (I'm assuming so as in most incidents it doesn't seem to lose the correct time - although I might just be seeing the problem the instant after it has crashed) so don't know whether the mainboard is still ok.
Just thought it might help some if you try the slight twisting described above to see if that helps with these to get them working and if anyone has any ideas how I can work out which bit of mine is faulty I'd be grateful.

what is the best touch rom to use for my xda orbit. and where can i get it
Well it seems that I'm having similar issues with my Orbit.
I've been having problems with it for a few weeks and they seem to be getting much worse now.
Occasionally it would just lock up and freeze, but after frantic tapping it will unfreeze itself and continue working fine. But over the past few days it's been locking up regulary. Removing the battery was the only way to get it going again.
But now it just won't do anytihing. As soon as I start it up I either get a white screen (it phases in during the splash screen), or it'll start up, freezes after a few seconds, then eventually switches itself off. Hard resetting it makes no difference at all. Changing the battery didn't work either. I always keep it on charge overnight, could that be the problem? Maybe I'm just overcharging the battery (if that's even possible).
Note: As I've typed this, I've switched it on again only to find the battery's flat, even though it's been off for most of the day (I gave up trying to start it up). The battery usually lasts for the whole day - maybe even 2 days if I don't use it much. I had it on charge overnight as I said.
I'll try another battery to see if that works. If not then what can I do?
Hi guys!
I`ve got some ****ty problems with my MDA.
After some rome changing actions my phone started to act like moron.
To be specific, when someone tries to call me, phone rings about 15 secs then restarts!
Without SIM card it works just fine! It dosen`t restart and gets turned of until battery is totally depleted.
Wherę`s the problem?
I`m currently runnin` stock HTC P3300 ROM with spb suit.
(Got bored with all those new only problem making roms)
...
i recon either..
1. change rom..
2. get new battery.. (if device still restarts like you say) (leave it off while you charge it, green light when done)
Rn
1.
I`ve changed already 4 roms since the problem first appeard.
Everything started when i was using Emrulez WM 6.5 standrad edition rom
2.
Like I said... Without SIM card, phone works just fine.
Help needed!
yea, but with sim it's more drain from battery. Especially when someone calls you (this specific moment is the biggest stress for battery).
If your batt is dying it can't hold on steady voltage in stressful moments and PDA simply shuts down
...
new battery dude
Some updates
In last few days I`ve found the just right ROM for me and my arte
It`s the HTC 4.2 Touch Rom with 4 sided cube.
I love it!
The self restart problem is still here, so I`m definitely gettin a new battery.
Only bad thing is that I`m gettin new device... E72, HD2 or BB 8900curve
Hi guys! Yeah, it`s me again xD
I`ve got one very irritating problem.
When I recive sms on my mda it stays in inbox, but every next message that arrives (from same contact) deletes that old one... So in short words there is no message history!
As I said rom is HTC 4.2 Touch Rom with 4 sided cube.
Please help!
