When ever the phone is in standby for a few minutes or so, it refuses to power back on when I press the power button. The only way to bring the phone back is a soft reset. While it is frozen in standby mode it does not receive phones calls, emails or texts. Im running lvsw 03-26. I noticed it didn’t happen with lvsw 3-20…but it was happening with both versions of xda live. I did a few hard resets to see if that will get rid of it…but nothing. I tried searching high and low on the site and even read wiki for answers but no one seems to know what is going on. I saw a few people post up the same issue but still no help….so I decided to open a new thread. Can anyone help?
It happens. Do you have a Storage Card in? If so, take it out for a while and see what happens. What 3rd party apps are you using too. I know Wisbar Advance causes this issue. Can you list what you're running and maybe I can see if you're having the same problem I was.
I've had the same problem with most WM6 roms. Having upgraded to BlackEd2.0 the problem seems to have gone though...
are you running a today plugin off storage card perhaps?
none of the roms i've tried had power on problems
Sometimes you can have that problem with having a cluttered SD Card or having a program that is accessing online in the background.
I have a 512 storage card. I’m not running much 3rd party apps…I have Mundu IM, Microsoft live search, Google maps, WM black commander, macromedia flash player active x…and that’s it. I Had mundu, live search and Google maps installed to my storage card. After reading rabanJR’s post, I uninstalled them from the card and installed them to the phone. I then went back to the card and deleted all program folders and files….I also did a general clean up of the card. Lets see what happens now.
Also to swampy…im not running much of anything on my today screen….just the messages, calendar and the com manager plug in that came with the rom. That’s all. Lets hope for the best.
Bad news, it froze up twice again today. I’m all out of ideas….any more suggestions?
funny thing, that just happened to me today. greed led was flashing, but i couldn't get out of standby mode without soft resetting. maybe some kinda software issue? Its the first time it's happened to me since going to wm6. i did notice it before however.

maybe try a hard reset?
What Radio Rom?
Have you flashed a new radio lately? If not, what radio ROM version do you have? I had an issue with my TyTN that was definitely a radio issue. Flashed to 1.38.0.11 and haven't had a single issue with freezing since.
Just an idea, of course.

yes sir...i tried many hard resets. A radio upgrade is one of the things i tried...i saw a few people trying it. i went to 1.34 though. im going to flash to 1.38 riiight now! im desperate right now. i'll let you know how it goes.
I had the same problem until I upgraded to black 2.0. I had the radio 1.38.0.11 from the time I upgraded to wm6 and my 8525 was freezing until upgrading to black 2.0 solved my problem.
well i have good news. i upgraded to LVSW(2007/04/08) last night...and so far so good. didnt freeze once today. hope the issue is gone for good. thanks all for the help.
same exact issue here running LVSW 03-26 (goes unresponsive while in standby, green blinking LED, soft reset to recover). 2gb card installed...i'll try removing it to see if freezes go away.
rzanology: if LVSW 04/08 fixes the issue, please post back and let us know!
installed (all to device, not card)

will do...one more note...i updated to 1.38.11 i think it was. what funny is right after i updated the radio the phone froze on the first standby. while i was coming back to post i saw the new rom update for lvsw.
This has a been a long reported problem on WM6 ROMs. 'wont wake from sleep' is the common phrase. Radio and bacground app using net I think was the problem, but no real solution if I remember correctly. On LVSW 3 26 I have gone weeks without this though. In the beginning LVSW 3 26 still did the freeze but after a week it stopped and works pretty good now. Sounds like MS is behind it since it makes no sense at all. LOL.

Wow, I thought I was crazy becasue nobody mentioned this issue before. I had this problem from day 1.
However, i recently noticed that the 1.38 Radio was eating up my battery life and downgraded to 1.34. This combined with installing Black2.0 seems to have taken care of this problem. I just came back from a weekend away from my phone (which i know is a crime since it is so much fun to use) and it woke up right away.
What Radio do you have?
How long are your phones in standby when it happens?
well....bad news again. even after the new rom update it is still freezing. do you guys think this is hardware? I never froze on wm5...i can't see it being a hardware issue. im almost tempted to call cingular and have them send another one, but i dont know how to go back to wm5. for me, the phone will be in standby for 30 minutes or so....then wont turn back on. any more suggestions?
try disabling everything completely.
1 events and notifications
2 beam auto receive
3 bluetooth
4 wifi
5 put device into flight mode
6 all startup items (including those in rom) move to a temp for now
7 disable activesync
8 disable push email
9 disable all today items
1. disable error reporting customer experience
11 remove anything that reads the sd card
12 remove sd card entirely
13 remove sim card
literally disable everything that runs automatically or otherwise.
power down ur phone by pressing power button for 3 secs. shutdown. leave it for 20secs.
power it back up. then test it now.
if u have a problem now then it could be scary bear notifications fix only. u could have a notification queu problem that is causing ur device to contradicory items simultaneously.
this could be caused activesync so no matter which rom u use it comes back via activesync of calendar or tasks.
if at this stage its fixed then bring things back systematically with the most important first like the sim card. turn off flight mode
c how u go. sometimes pda just gets confused and doesnt wake up from a sleep to well (bit like me in the morning... sometimes bed and sleep is just way to good compared to work/life)...
good luck.
Hello,
First and foremost I should note that I tried searching the forums but I was not entirely sure what to search for. I tried a few different queries and they yielded negligible results for my issue. Now, onto my issue:
8525 with wm6 black 3.01
I have my 8525/hermes/tytn/etc/ set to turn the device off after 3 minutes of inactivity in order to preserve battery life. Sometimes, this poses no issues and I can just hit the power button to turn it back on when I need to. Other times however, and perhaps more frequent, I press the power button and nothing happens. Try as I might and regardless of how many times I press the damned button, it will not turn on. I have to use my stylus to do a soft reset in order to have my phone back in operation. Needless to say, this has gotten very annoying. I have since turned that feature off but now my battery drains far too quickly.
Is this a known issue or has anyone experienced similar issues? If so, is there a fix for this? If not, would ATT accept my phone for a warranty exchange with this greymarket software on it? If not, can I just flash it with an official ATT image and then send it in? Thanks.
It's called Sleep of Death... SOD... I had it and I flashed the official AT&T rom and havent had it since.
thanks.. looking into it!
How many apps do you have running. Where are they installed also. I currently run Black Majik, and NEVER have the SoD, or soft reset, so I think it's the stuff you put in your device that may be causing this. Flashing a new ROM wont always solve this, since you and I have the same phone, I think it's what you put in that may cause this.

running? usually just whatever program I have opened since I have it set up to completely escape the program when I X out. As far as where things are installed, everything is installed on my device sans iGo.. However, this issue arised prior to iGo being put on my SD card.
Try this. After a hard reset, load one app to your device, let it sit, test it, and then do another. take your time. See if something you load is causing this. I did a HR on mine cause I had tons of crap on there, loaded stuff slowly and noticed the ButtonFlo CAB is what screwed my ROM from working good, so got rid of it. Since then, its awesome.
Leave the Black and go with JJ's Majik. Is the only ROM to date that hasn't SOD'ed me ... and I run the same apps, the same way, on all the ROM's.
http://wmblack.info/
is this so? i'm going to try at&t's wm6 for a bit, see howt aht works..
Don't belive so
I read a lot of threads regarding the problem, i tried AT&T and same problem, others had it with black, now i am having it with latest LVSW, may be a software problem, i had it using SPB WEATHER and SPB TIME, i hard reset install all but them, worked fine for two days, installed TWEAK2K2, problem came back, now trying without TWEAK2K2, but i doubt problem can be solved
My Opinion
been running through threads all over, just found out that there is no solution, because when a program pushes the unit to wake up from standby it freezes, this program can be weather, alarm, mail, active sync, and even a CALL can cause this, so it's a permanent bug in wm6 and PPC :-(
Hi,
last week I installed Artemis Touch 3.01 ROM. Sometimes my phone is not available although it is turned on and the signal strength is high. After sofreset phone is working again. Is there a solution for this problem?

Yes, install Touch 2.1 and everything is ok. Other solution is to use soft reset when it´s happen....
I'm also had this problem after installing version 3.01. I normally happened twice a day.
Now I installed HTC original WM6 ROM, and the problem still happens(although not so often). I'm thinking the GSM chip is broken in some way...
hi,
I had installed O2 Premium 2.0 WM6 WWE ROM, 5.2.1921 SDHC Full for 3 weeks. It happened the same to me once a day. I had to do softreset as an only solution.
Now I am trying Touch 3.01 for 4 days and it did not happen. I wonder what makes this bug and if there is a solution to fix it.
If u know the solution or reason please let us know.
I think it's a problem with the new radio upgrade, I went back to 02.98.90 and everything's ok.

Does anyone also has this problem with Touch 2.1? If not I will try it because it also has Radio 02.98.90 ...
I had this problem with Touch 2.1 & Touch 3.0 (Radio is 02.98.90) I can't call or send SMS out (it say not available wait for 15 second) but can receive call and sms to me!
I tried newest Touch 3.01 (Radio 3.07.90) and the problem fixed, I did not see this problem 2 weeks ago!
Same bug but difference cases so I think this bug is not by Radio, so please try install another ROM
For me Radio 3.07.90 is fine!
By the way, you don't have to soft reset, just close and open the phone in Comm Manager
had same problem for the first time...
hello all
I have written the following in the main 3.01 thread:
I just want to address this point, I had a Qtek S200 (I am not sure but it may be the prophet) and I have experienced similar problems, this was also why I have sold it after 3 months... - what I am trying to say is that this may be either an HTC or WM related problem.
However, I have not experienced this with my artemis wich I have since september so far and I have used wm5, touch 2.01 full and now since release 3.01 full, but it is also rather hard to find that bug...

unfortunately, I have now also experienced the problem, I was not available. However, I was able to make a phonecall and receive a SMS from which I took notice of the problem.
I must say, I would not have much of problem to close and open the phone on comm man. or even soft reset, I would just like to prevent to do it too often. How do you guys find out that you are unavailable again? The reception does not seem a good indication as it was full when I was not available...
Thanks for your comments,

Im having this problem too since i intalled WM& first the HTC official rom, and now with touch 3.01..first i thought it was some app but the problem still exists and the annoying part is that i dont know when the phone app freezes and i dont receive sms or phone call alert. I always have to check to see if i have phone or not anyone discovered a solution?
Anyone? It's happening at least one time per day

It sounds like you're talking about something else. I think the OP was saying that his signal shows full or good and when he tries to make a phone call, it says the phone is not ready or available. You said you're able to make calls and SMS, but with this situation, you cannot connect to use the phone at all except BT, Wifi, & GPS. I'm assuming you mean that people can't reach you when they call but your can still make phone calls. ? I've had that happen to me on other phones in the past. I always thought it was a network issue.
I too have this problem and I've had it on the Touch ROMs and the Premium 2.1 ROM that I'm currently using. I've used radio 02.98.90 & now using 3.07.90. I can't remember if I had the issue with 02.98.90 though. But it's the same as the OP. The signal shows full but you can't make a phone call or anything. If you go to the Comm Mgr and try to turn the radio off and then on, it will not turn the radio off. The signal still shows full but no connectivity. This usually happens to me if I go a few days to a week without soft resetting. I reset my device maybe once every 2 days to avoid the problem.
So I'm not sure if it's a radio problem, ROM problem, or hardware problem. It doesn't happen that often so I just live with it but I'd love to learn what the source of the problem is and get a fix (or work around) for it. I was just thinking yesterday that maybe I need to go back to radio 02.98.90 but from the posts, it seems that it is happening on this radio too.
What happen to me is that the pda works normal the signal strenght too but when i press the green key to acess the phone or go to lost call or so nothing happen. And when the phone rings when in this state it only lights the keypad light but wont ring or show anything on the sreen and wont register a lost call or any SMS..

I have Vanilla 1.0 and I had that problem two times a week. It was caused by enAlarmPPC -alarmclock program, which freezed TomTom Navigator when loading it and caused that problem too. When I took enAlarmPPC away, it has done it only once during 30 days.
The problem was annoying, because I thought all things are fine, and I did not know, that I cannot make a phone call or to receive it or to send and receive sms.
The only program i have for alarm e spb time now but i will try to remove it to see if it works. Thanks.
Just got this issue today directly after connecting to wifi and updating weather. Phone was working fine - no resets or malfunctions for 5 days! The only thing I've done today that I haven't done in the past 5 days was connect to wifi. I just noticed my signal was full at work and I know it's usually about 4 bars. So I tried to make a phone call and got the following message:
"Cannot complete the call. The signal may be unavailable or the phone number may not be valid. Verify the number or try again later."
And when I try to connect to GPRS, I get this message:
"Cannot connect for an unknown reason. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap Settings. If the problem continues, reset your mobile device according to your manufacture's documentation and try again."
This is all while the signal strength is full and the green light is flashing. I just doen't know Maybe it has something to do with the Comm manager. I haven't used the Comm Mgr in 5 days either, so could be issues with it since it seems to be ineffective at turning the phone on or off in this condition. Hopes someone can figure this out.
same problem
I had touch 2 installed and it worked fine for months. but last 2 weeks the phone freezes and I can't do anything and have to soft reset.
Now I installed Touch 3.0 and again the same problem. once or twice a day when I press a button, the screen stays black doesn't respond at all. sometimes I start a app (random) and it just freezes and I have to sof reset.
remember i worked months with Touch 2 and never had the problem!
Already tried to take spb time but still freeze the phone app with no warning and random..only one time after two day but i miss a lot os sms or important calls since i have to chech everytime if its stuck or not
Here is how it happens :
i slide the keyboard out, write an sms or something , then slide the keyboard back in quickly : it soft resets itself.
It also happen when sliding the keyboard out and in without doing anything else.
This doesnt happens 100% of times of course, but in 2 days, it happened to me twice. And it pretty annoying.
I dont know if its something i have installed or not, but i dont see how it can be related (have tomtom, Batti, skype, Resco File Explorer, CorePlayer)
Am i the only one with this problem?
Thanks in advance if you can help me
Seems like the power cuts off sometimes you slide it. (in other words, it's broken). Return it and ask for another one.
Little chance this is the cause of any software interferrence.
But first try a hard reset... if that doensn't help, than you can consider a RMA
Hi,
I've had exacly the same. It looks like we did get a monday morning device
I've returned it to the shop and got a new one, this one is fine. I would suggest you do the same.
Toolman
hmm, mine is also doing that as well. Hard reset did not fix it. Bought from Techrific in Melbourne. Just negotiating return now.
Although my issue is not really a reboot. The phone just does an ungracefull shutdown. Have to power it back on.
i did a hard reset.
And so far, no unwanted reset... I am crossing my fingers.
FYI : unlike my first time, i didnt install Tomtom 7... i dont know if its related or not. So i just wanted to know if those experiencing those unwanted reset also had Tomtom 7 installed ?
May not be the same issue, but be aware of this problem with TomTom7 on the TP2...

yes i found out this problem with the BT files... I had this problem too.
So i didnt install it yet since my hard reset, so i will wait a little bit before testing it out .
But so far, no more problems with my TP2, i dont regret upgrading from my Kaiser
I had the Standby of Death SOD this is when the phone fails to come out of standby with a power button press. This issue only affects some people on some networks. I'm not sure if its a network problem or a software problem but as only a minority of people have it, I suspect its mainly a network problem there is a software solution.
The solution is to change the phone settings band option from auto 3G/2G to either 3G Only (WCDMA + UTMS 2100 in Europe) or 2G Only (GSM + AUTO) depending on your requirements.
Also read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540943&highlight=standby&page=2 where the resolution was to get a new SIM.
Obviously this only solves the problem when the crash is because of the sim and/or settings which impact the sim. To rule out a software cause its best to start with a hard reset.
had this problem once: I switched on the camera, and then left the device on the table for a long time - so it went to standby.
I could not wake it up by the power button after 20 minutes, but as an incoming call came, it was ringing with a black display, and I could answer the call with my BT headset. screen was still pure black
finally I pushed the reset button and since then everything is fine - I still feel this was connected to the camera.

Yeah if it only happened the once then that was probably the case, if you have the problem on a regular basis and you know its nothing to do with the camera (becuase you never loaded it) then you have the problem I am describing.
I have exactly the same problem has Terta.
I'm 100% sur that it's the camera that make this bug I have tried all my weekend to reproduce the bug a lot of time and it was always the camera...
Hope someone can fix this bug cause now I can't take any photo without soft-reseting my phone. Very, very, very annoying...
I messed around with the sound app SRS WOW HD for a while to get it work on TP2, with this installed, mine did exactly the same thing.
Sometimes it happened straight away (first sleep), other times it happened a day or so later.
Uninstalled, it did not happen again.
(Not the SIM or Camera for me)
Go figure!

Yes I guess there are many reasons for the Standby of Death, if you have ruled out all software causes such as the camera or installed apps then have a think about the SIM and/or the settings that impact the SIM.
Its the last thing most people will think about. It worked for me and got rid of a random SOD problem 2-3 times a week which coinceded with being in weak 3G areas (where the phone might switch bands automatically) although that never occured to me at the time.
You see I haven't installed other applications nor do I load up the camera and leave it running so I couldn't figure out what was causing it, it just happened randomly not connected with anything particular that I was doing.
i hope there is some kind of magical solution for this because i just got my Sprint TP2 today and I have this issue everytime my phone goes into standby. Pushing the power button wont bring it out but every once in a while opening the keyboard does. I have to continually reset my new phone just to use it
PS; beyond this annoyance, I love it!

For the past few days I have been restarting my phone thru the soft reset. I think this is a windows issue...it has happened to me even without having the camera app running, and yes I checked the task manager. Hopefully this will be fixed when windows mobile 6.5 comes out, since Im getting frustrated with this phone...I have the phone for about a month now....grrr Stand by of Death!!!

so its not just mine then? this is ridiculous
Right, i had got seriously fed up with the standby of death happending, so i decided to contact HTC Europe directly.
They went over the usual 'factory reset' and 'update' solutions before coming to the conclusion that either there is a loose connection/faulty screen or there is some confiliction between drivers of the pre-installed software.
Because all HTC phones have 2 years warrenty as standard they have asked me to send if off so they can invistigate the problem and send me a replacement.
So if anybody is in the same boat as me a suggest you contact HTC and arrange a fix/replace.
Hope this helps.

Add me to the list, seems to happen when I am charging my phone and it hits 100%
This phone reminds me of all my previous Sony Ericsson phones....very unstable OS' ... Makes me regret of getting this one and should've gotten an iPhone...but then again I'm pretty sure iPhone's have issues that apple fanboys aren't admitting. The reason that made me not get an iphone is because of ATT's ridiculous plan pricing...Its crazy!!!
if you are on sprints network, take out the sim card. This has fixed the issue for me. Used to get SOD a few times a day but opening the keyboard and then pressing the power button used to get me out of it. This was really annoying, and i read that it may be issues with the sim card. Took that out a week ago and havent had a SOD yet

Jabberoo I can verify that this was caused by the SRS WOW HD program on my touch pro 2 as well. AS SOON as I uninstalled this application, restarted, everything was fine again.
I don't know if this will help anybody but if your phone suffers from SOD and you have TMO put it in airplane mode and see if it still does it.
I did that and it never went into SOD so that lead me to believe that the radio was the culprit. before that I tried everything listed. I don't have the 3G Plan so the 3.45.25.14 (T-Mobile) radio is the only one that worked for me.
I have the same problem.. just have installed spb mobile shell with mskip ultimate. I try to unistall all
I have a question: if I choose the 3G only option (WCDMA + UTMS 2100 in Europe) and the signal strength is low there will not be an automatic switch between 3G and 2G am I right? ...and i'm offline then

Confirming this....
I had this issue for a while now...I tried hard resets, ROM flashes etc. It all works fine and was stable until I flash Sps Wow HD (I just realized this). Yesterday I flashed the latest HTC released sense ROM and right now after installing all the softwares I had the SOD again. Fortunately I saw the 2 posts and thought I will give it a try...and guess what?
I uninstalled the Srs Wow HD and phone is back to normal...no issues till now...will report later if I see any.
I am going to tmobile to get the SIM changed anyways hoping that it will fix another issue I am having. Every day I have to turn the airplane mode ON and OFF at least twice to get my data connection back. Mostly after a call and sometimes in random the phone is unable to reconnect to the data, it gives me an error that the epc.tmobile didnt respond or something like that. If any of you know how to fix this issue...plz help
I have been Experiencing this so called "SOD". HTC touch pro 2 sprint. On the 6.5.5 Build 23569 i had MAJOR sod issues. Energyrom , mighty , titanium , you name it. Ive Task 29 and reflashed them all multiple times. Still SOD was there... But i may have found a temp cure for me atleast. This is what i did....
First , i used task29 , next i reflashed the stock 6.1 rom, check for SOD... still had it... i task 29 again. Installed titanium edition , without sense. SOD was cured, phone worked fine, tryed to install sense 2.1, failed, SOD was back. Soo...
Then i task29 again, then repeated task29 a second time at the boot screen.... then i flashed Energyrom GTX themed 21907 build june 27th......Once it was flashed unplugged my USB plug and plugged it into the usb wall plug i have . Installed LUMOS, light sensor still was inactive and no response, could not brighten and still nothing... Installed G-light right after lumos without uninstalling lumos.... Still plugged into the AC wall USB plug....let it sit. Still nothing, couldnt adjust or brighten..... So i task 29 AGAIN... then flashed 21907 build GTX themed again... once flashed, unplugged it & back into wall charger... Installed lumos.... SUDDENLY!!! the sensor worked, and was accepting light AGAIN! ...
So i ran the LUMOS wizard, followed instructions and my phone was SOD FREE!! Let it sit over night, was fine....I wanted to see now if i could overwrite / flash over GTX themed with DiNiK glass cause i liked it better... so i DID NOT USE task29 this time, just reflashed over GTX themed one With DiNiK glass... same build 21907 and followed all my same steps, with wall plug, installed lumos, did the wizard,.... WALAaa.... works still like a charm. Have been using and testing it for 5 days, SOD is gone as far as i know.... ALSO in options, under setting / system / power / batt... i turned off the option to charge it when plugged into PC....Not sure if it helps or not. But Something i did is doing the trick. Seems between the backlight, and something to do with my 2.0 usb cord thats messing it up.
Seems to be cured... Still not sure exactly what fixed my phone. But between all that, IMO i believe installing lumos and glight triggered something also i think not letting it charge thru the PC, and only using a wall plug for charging has something to do with it....Either way . now its back to normal working just great... ONLY running LUMOS cab, and all the games i want. Energyrom Build 21907 DiNiK Glass Themed june 27th.... HOPE this helps!!! Have a wonderful DAY!
