Hey all,
I was unable to find this same issue, so if it was posted already sorry, but i am having an odd one. My phone seems to be freezing randomly after phone calls, staying on a black screen. However the led light still blinks, if i have a message or whatever, and the hard keys on the front do light up. It doesn't happen all the time, just some times after a call, and only happens with phone calls, and i need to pop the batt out to get it working.
Any ideas?
Thanks
JC
I do have the overclocktool installed but don't think or know if that would cause it
Do you have oct V1.5? If you do that is the problem there are numerious complaints in that thread about V1.5 locking the phone up during or after calls. It has to do with the dynamic clocking. some people have had luck by turning the dynamic clocking off . It didn't work for me so I went back to V1.4.1. I'm sure the issue will be fixed in the next release.

I have a problem that more people seem to have, according to the search. I couldn’t find the “audio” tab in my Bluetooth-settings, so that didn’t help me.
The problem is as follows. After 1 day the sound on my compact III mutes, including vibration. Sometimes it's after 12 hours, sometimes after 2 days, there's no distinct pattern to be recognized. Also, it doesn't seem to matter if you use the phone or not, since it sometimes is alright at night and the sound is muted the next morning. This is for all sound-events (warnings, incoming call notifications, messages, mp3 etc), however, you can make a call without any problems and hear what the other person is saying. Once you’ve hard-reset the device everything is back to normal.
It does get annoying however, since I regularly miss calls due to this bug.
I had the same problem on my Vario in the past. So I’m guessing it’s somewhere in the software I use, but apart from Total Commander and TomTom6 I haven’t installed any third-party apps.
Yup i've been having a slight problem with the sound. I thought it was like the endless knackered M500's that orange used to send me which had speaker failure after about 10minuites! (Swear they kept sending me the same 2 faulty phones - I had 5 in 5 days once!) But a play in the bluetooth seems to get it working again.
The other annoying thing is that if you leave the power management at the default settings then occasionally the screen blanks without being able to get the backlight on again - so now I have to manually turn of the screen. Stil aint much of a problem - ive had a normal days use, 2 hours of radio play, bluetooth and wi-fi on all day and still have 35% battery - wehay!
Hopefully there'll be a patch soon to sort out he glitches.
I forgot to mention I had the exact same problem on my mda Vario also. I always thought it was a problem with that specific piece, but apparantly not.
Could it be the vibrate.cab that I'm using to produce vibrations when you use the phonepad? Or should I really do some further research in the bluetooth-department?
Same problem here.
Phone becomes completely silent after 9 hours in standby mode.
I need to reset it to get back sound
Does someone know what is going on here ?
Please advise. Thank you.
I seem to experience no problems the past couple of days (fingers crossed). I used the 'speed up your WM5' tweak where you set the Glyphcache to 32768. After I reduced it to 16something the problems seem to have disappeared.
I noticed that this problem happens when for example email is automatically checked during night. If email comes in (and is not read immediately) the phone will start notifying in background.
Notifications are kept and only a program like "check notifications" will delete them manually. But still if you delete them, the phone then needs a reset
to work properly again.
This is not a memory issue, it has to do with the notifications.
I do not know how to solve it.
I've seen a couple of people post on this issue but not many is facing it so i'm wondering if it's cause by a certain software? Or is this just another bug in the 2.1 and hopefully it gets fixed in 2.2
I've got the sound manager app installed to activate the vibration again once it stops. Usually it's for my SMS but over the last 2 days, even when i draw the unlock pattern, it does not vibrate anymore until i re-activate it using sound manager.
I've read that it could be the battery being weak but my batt was at some 65% so i'm guessing that is not the reason.
Anyone knows what maybe causing this vibration to stop issue? Maybe it's an application causing it....my only guess is "Handcent".
I've had this issue for the last month.
I've tried a few different things and usually it comes back, one way or another.
A few days ago I discovered something that leads me to start thinking I have a hardware fault. My vibration disappears almost daily now but the last 3/4 times it's gone I've done nothing except give the phone a light tap (light as in two fingers on the back of the unit) and the vibrate function has immediately returned.
I'm just guessing but it kinda looks to my untrained eye that it's a hardware issue on my handset - it may just be mine though.
Ha....if that is the case then you probably have a faulty hardware. No tapping is going to make mine vibrate until i launch Sound Manager to reset the vibration setting
I'm gonna contact HTC and get it sent back in the next few days for sure. I think I'd prefer it to be a hardware problem (fixable) than a non-descript software issue that may or may not be fixed at some point in the future.
Well I hope there's a permanent fix soon for you
mine always has some problem with the vibrate too...
Anyone any news? The vibration of my Desire is not stable, you clearly hear changes in the speed/power. I contacted HTC and wait for their answer.
For your information, it does always work and I am using Android 2.2.
My vibration works without sound manager on 2.2. I have even had the phone turn off due to low battery and the vibration works once the phone is back on charge

HTC told me to hard reset the device. I can not believe that a hardware issue is solved by software reset ?

Generally it's the first thing they think of to try, regardless of the fact it means you lose all your data.
Mine hasn't changed/failed since getting the phone in April (on its day of release)

That's what I think too. I will hard reset the device after my holiday and will take care of a backup myself. If this doesn't fix the issue I'll send it to HTC...
Bad Vibrations
I've noticed a problem recently, that I get vibration when the phone rings with an incoming call, or when I switch to vibration profile, and the handset also gives 'haptic feedback' when typing etc, but no longer vibrates when I receive text messages or emails, despite soft resetting, de- and re-selecting all the relevant options.
Running 2.1 on T-Mobile, can't tell you what software I've got on it as I stood on it and cracked/trashed the screen earlier today - phone still running, receives calls, seems to be receiving emails, but can't read anything at all on the screen.
On a side note, does anyone know how to get data off a running Desire with an unreadable screen?! I can't get it to sync with the PC Sync software because I can't get it into sync mode from the touchscreen menu
Phone is set up to backup to memory card, so I am now wondering if I can use that card in a replacement handset to restore my data to new phone?
Sorry for hijacking the thread a little! Ed
Hey all, today I just started having a problem with my touch input. Sometimes, it won't register my touches at all, including the hardware capacitive buttons at the bottom. Sometimes, turning the screen off and on will fix it, sometimes it won't.
Other times, I'll get what people call "ghost touches"; the screen is reacting as if I was touching it in certain spots when I'm not. Honestly, I can sit back and watch as my phone uses itself (it's really creepy actually).
The weird thing is that this just happened out of the blue. This morning my phone worked perfectly fine; I had never seen this issue before. Then all of a sudden this started happening. I am using CM6 nightlies and I have tried everything. I wiped everything, flashed the new nightly, flashed a stock 2.2 ROM (with Sense), changed the NovaFreq values, tried a kernel without the FPS unlock, and the problem persists.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue? If it has been over 30 days since I bought the phone, will Sprint still replace it?
i've tried searching this forum with no luck for results, so maybe someone can point me in the right direction...
just wondering if there is a fix for this issue, that apparently is a bug:
when receiving an incoming call, and while the phone ringer is turned on, it will ring for a split second then it will stop ringing. the call will still be coming through and i can answer it and talk just fine, it's just the ringer that is the problem. this happens randomly, and i've found numerous posts on other forums by searching google, but haven't been able to find anything here.
can't post a url so here's some quotes:
My Dinc sometimes stops ringing after half a second with incoming calls. I'd hear a very short ring and then it just stops ringing or vibrating. I just noticed this today after missing several calls with my phone today.
This problems comes on randomly and goes away in a similar fashion. This seems to happen only when the phone is lying screen down on a flat surface. I called HTC and they said it might be due to the sensor in the front and advised me to not put phone face down and always carry it in a pouch. This is not an acceptable solution. I carry my phone in my pocket and it can very well be face down in there.
Has anyone noticed this problem? If not, I invite you to reproduce this problem. Put your phone screen down on a perfectly flat surface and try to call your cell. I'm wondering whether my phone is defective or it's a much wider issue.
Thanks.
Update: Apparently there is a feature on HTC devices when if you're holding the phone and if it rings, it will mute if you put it on a surface face down. While this is fine, the problem with my device is that if I leave it on a flat surface, it will do that for all subsequent calls too (ring for half a second and then mute). Maybe my phone has a bug in implementation of this 'feature'?

It's a well known issue that HTC has not fixed and will most likely never fix. I've been through 3 Dincs because of this problem and they all do the same thing. Quite irritating! Nice phone except for this BIG bug.

is there any fix for this bug? and does anyone know if this bug is software or hardware related. currently, i'm running stock 2.2 rooted with city id deleted. thinking about flashing CM7 or another custom rom, and just curious if it will do this with those roms as well.
thanks for any help
Must be an issue with the stock rom. I've never had a problem. But I've also never ran the stock 2.2 rom. I ran stock 2.1 until root was achieved. Custom Rom's from there on out.

Also on my HTC Wildfire
This happens also on my htc wildfire android v2.2.1 (latest official rom), i think it is caused by the mute-on-pickup feature that is bugged in some way, even if i have turned it off.
So.. i have had a weird problem for quite awhile now but have been putting up with it..
When on a voice call when the screen goes off it will mute the mic, leaving the other person asking if i am there.. i have to shake the phone or hit the power button a bunch. It also doesn't wake up instantly when that happens, almost like its in a deep sleep. I don't have any battery saver apps or anything installed....
I am using CM11 right now with FL24 modem, i have tried other modems.. same issue.. This issue also happened on other roms incluing vanir and others...
I did a search and found one other person with the same exact issue.. but no fix posted, was hoping someone might have an idea on how to figure this out.. thanks..
Experiencing Similar Problem
I've been experiencing a similar issue for a bit over a month, too. I'm not quite sure if it was when the screen went off, but certainly within 15 seconds of making or receiving a call my mic cuts off. It sometimes comes back after -- I don't know if that's because I shake the phone around or otherwise get the screen to come on, although the mic turning back on and the screen turning back on do not happen at the same time.
I'm also on CM11 with FL24 modem on a Samsung Epic 4G Touch, which makes me suspect it's the same problem. Do you have a link to the other forum post?
I suspect it's a relatively recent regression with CM, because I installed CM11 on the phone at the end of October and everything was fine. I first started experiencing the issue a few weeks thereafter. I can't recall if it happened after upgrading CM, or if It was after I installed Google Voice (since removed,) or if there was no particular prompt.
