Do a hard-reset as it may be a piece of software or even just corruption.

and how do i do tht... it doesnot means clear storage is it.. coz if it is then i hav done it more than 100 times

HARD RESET:
0. Make sure the phone is not connected to the PC (via USB cable).
1. Turn the device off.
2. Press down the two soft keys which are the 2 top buttons (with dashes) besides the CALL and DROP buttons.
3. While holding the two soft keys, press the power button.
4. Keep holding the two soft keys until the screen prompts you to hard reset.
5. Release the two soft keys and press the CALL/SEND button.
The device will now reset.

It may vary from rom to rom, but tell the phone to get the time from the operator. Under Ookba´s rom, Go to START - SETTINGS - CLOCK AND ALARM - DATE AND TIME - make sure AUTOMATIC TIME/TIME ZONE is set to ENABLE.
I was having this problem too, and the solution I found is posted here!

thanks... post helped me also...

[FIXED] Message Scolling automatically to the Bottom [Screens inc.]

hiya, i'm using Sleuths Developer Rom v3.0, and its all been going fine untill just now ... completely out of the blue!
its easier to explain with pictures. So read my storey thingy:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
*Explains*
whenever i receive a message, or tap to view one, it automatically scrolls to the bottom of the message (Panel 4) and so i have to scroll up to see my message each time (Panel 5)
this happened completely randomly and it has happened to me before on one of JJ's roms.
i have searched, and done a Soft Reset, i've uninstalled the last application i installed (HTC Custom) to no avail!
i really do NOT want to hard reset as i have everything PERFECT on here now anyone got any ideas????
i must add that this happened randomly while receiving a message and it does it every single time!
would be greatly appreciated as hard reset is not my option ...
Thanks in advance
EDIT:
Ok Kasual has said that its the "D-pad fix" which can be disabled by downloading HTCustom (search it) and then go to "Pocket IE" tab and disable the Dpad fix, then soft reset and its fixed!
Yeah, I'm actually having the same problem. If anyone's got advice, I would appreciate it as well.
Great illustration
I also have that issue...
A hard reset fixed it for me. I have no idea why it happened, but a hard reset fdixed it. YMMV.
ah i foresee a hard rest then =/ argh didnt want to do that!! must be SOME explanation for it surely!!
thanks for the replies guys
I've had this problem with my 8525 since the day I upgraded to WM6, it has never gone away either.
D-pad navigation.
I am pretty sure this is caused by the "D-pad navigation" tweak. I also seem to remember that one of the newer roms is backwards (enabled is unchecked, disabled is checked). Try changing that tweak setting.
D-Pad Navigation
This is the behavior that comes with the D-Pad navigation tweak. You might want to make sure the tweak program is actually setting the registry to NOT have the tweak. I will look for the reference and post unless some one else beats me.
WOW many thanks Kasual!!! it is the D-Pad fix!
i'll edit my main post with a cure
many thanks
Although I never had this problem, I really appreciated your illustration of the problem (and the solution), which is really great!! Had a lot of fun studying
I wish many other users would be AT LEAST so kind to explain their problems with more than 7 words, such as "my dopod won't start anymore, suggestions??"

Problems/bugs

Well I'm also the happy owner of the TP2... But if have some issues/bugs that maybe some of you have a solution for.
When I restart my phone, sometimes manila doesn't start at all.
So I start it up manually, but then it seems that parts are not working. Like quantity notifications of the messages...
Also the device sometimes gives a message that it cannot connect to the gprs, while I have a network connection and other phones have no problem with the same provider. And then I notice that the H sign is very weird and there's no info about it in the manual.
Here you can see an image, the red arrow points to the weird symbol.

You can only modify the total sound volume and not ring or phone volume. That's not handy because my sms sound is too low.
Is there a tweak to change the soft touch buttons? Like Phone - Camera buttons to change to contact - sms or something else...
Greetzzzzz
pfffffffffffff
This is really ennoying... My battery was low and phone shutted down.
So I connection the power supply, started the phone and yeah AGAIN... stupid Manila doesn't start. No feature started.. I feel like throwing it away now.
Hope someone has a solution to it?
One issue solved...
Well I uninstalled SPB gprs monitor and now manila starts up fine.
I also set a delayed startup for S2U2 for about 20s, so that manila starts up first.
these have nothing to do with htc touch pro2 itself dude!
it's about the rom you installed in it,so pls return to your technician to get a good rom!
it's like you have super good pc,but the windows xp you installed is crap,then your pc will always get this problem and that......
FYI: rom means: OS(wm 6.5 for example)+Radio(GSM etc)+Extrom(touchflo 3d etc)
hello everyboby,
For the strange color of the "H" icon, it's mean you don't receive grps correctly in the place you are.Try to move to see a change.
For your problem of the TF3D's starting, i have the same problem when S2U2 was installed, see in the forum you can find a special version modified for TP2.
Hope, it can help you.
PS: excuses my english, i'm french
PS: nokiadashi, please change your font size and color. And try to answer with a different explication that's a problem with ROM like the differents reply that you post
bye to all

Smashed on/off button solution?

Hi guys, I am not sure if it's the place I should post this, if not mods plz move my thread to the appropriated message board.
Recently my phone fell off my desk head on. Right on the top of the phone. Now the button on/off is not functioning. I can still use the phone but as soon as it close the screen I can't light it up again. In the options I manage the let the screen open at all time but...
Bell is asking for a couple hundred bucks for repair or couple hundred to cancel my contract.
I was wondering if it was possible to some how make the camera button the on/off fonction.
I haven't open the phone yet (screws) to check the damage internally, I may be able to fix it but I doubt it.
I'll post pictures later tomorrow.
Do you guys have any ideas?
yes, check out AE button plus, you can't set it to power on the phone however you can set it to power the screen on and off. However to turn the screen on with a button other then the power button you must change the settings in key lock under settings/system/key lock you must set it do not lock buttons, otherwise no button will function, the only thing is that your call end buttons work as well.
get AE button plus
set whatever button to power on/off the backlight
disable key lock on screen power off
good luck
wow jeez thx.
I had a very hard time to find it for free so here's the cab

Same thing happened to me. This is what I did and I fixed it.
1. Take the battery cover off
2. Look at where the power button is, if you look closely you will the the button "hinges on the right side"

[Q] Broken Home Button

I was playing with my phone the other day and the home button and the search buttons suddenly stopped working. Totally out of the blue.
I have tried different ROMs, and they started working again for an hour or so and then stopped again. The keytest in recovery registers the key presses.
What do you think may be wrong?
It's probably hardware, there have been other reports of buttons that stop functioning, run a search and you'll find them.
Repair is the only solution I guess.
I doubt its hardware, I tried setting the volume up button to the hone function with an app, but that does nothing either.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I hope it's not hardware too but this kind of complaint isn't the first

...and others.
Can you access the *#*#3424#*#* test menu. If you can run the button test.
Another think you may try, is booting in safe mode to check if they would work then.
If you cant get it working take a look at this.
Edit: This app has just been released on the market, search for 'button savior'.
The app was made for the HD2 but is working fully on my desire running cyanogenmod, haven't tried any other roms.
I hope you get it working and don't need it though

Some success, I installed CM 6.1 and had my home and search buttons back. THEN, I restored a bunch of apps with titanium backup, I soon restarted my phone and bam, buttons no longer function on the reboot.
My problems don't seem to be the same as the above links, keytest in recovery has no problems with the buttons, they have not been playing up over a long period of time, and they are not erratic. They either work or they do not.
I suppose I should uninstall apps till I find the culprit?
I can't think of a better fix than that, might take a while but at least you should be with a fully functioning phone in the end
Probably it's better to first install the quality apps that you know are not causing the issue, and then install one by one apps that are from not so renowned devs.

Hidden menus - ANT Settings

While messing around with the hidden menus, I turned on PRX/DRX measurement display , under RF -> ANT Setting menu. There seems to be no way to turn the option off again.
Can this have any impact on battery life / performances? Is there a way to disable it? If i click again on the PRX/DRX ON button, it reboots the phone but the option stays ON.

I cant find a clear answer what this is for some say fm radio others say its how gear talks wi5h the fone. I hate to make an example here thought this is why we dont touch settings we dont know about. U hqve no clue what it does and for all u no u coulda wiped ure phone. This is a big no no but enough of that u way no matter how many times u click it stays on. Only other way would to restore ure backup or it may been on in the first place. Or a factory reset if no backups
you may look into ant+ its part of the system it may give you more of an idea ive never messed with it im pretty sure i got it debloated outa mine

ANT+ seems to be a communication protocol for data exchange between smartphons and various types of sensors.
On the other hand, "ANT settings", in the hidden menu context, seems to stand for ANTenna settings...
Did some research and I'm starting to figure it out a little bit.
PRX should be "primary data receive" while DRX is "diversity data receive" (it could also mean "Discontinuous reception" ....). Both have to do with LTE-WCDMA (?).
I'm not into telecom engineering, but I guess having both ON it's the way it's meant to be.
What is strange, is the menu behaviour : initially showing nothing, then apparently enabling both, and now allowing to turn off either one function or the other but not both at the same time.
For the time being, I see no anomalous behaviour or battery drain.
Bottom line : better not to tamper with it, I concur. But it would be nice to know what exactly PRX/DRX means , and if the menu is merely a tool for reading network performances ("lte ml1 serving cell measurement") or it actually enables/disables antenna features.
PRX is primary data receive signal.
DRX is diversity data receive signal.
You can guess the rest of it....
