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..

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 ?
So, I left my Artemis in my RAM Aqua Box waterproof phone case attached to my motorcycle while I ran into the store.
I came out, started the bike and started the ride home. That was when I noticed the white screen and my tunes had stopped playing. I've seen it happen before (while turning off the phone in camera mode, etc), but a simple soft reset always fixed it. Not this time...
For two days now I've flashed it back to factory, installed my latest ROM (twice), reconfigured all my settings, etc, only to have the phone seize up by fading to the White Screen Of Death. The only fix is to remove the battery and let it sit for a bit. I have found however I can get the phone to run longer if I put it in the freezer for 15 mins, then it runs as it should until it warms up.
Sometimes it will work for half a day, other times it will fade out even before the soft reset boots up again. It really doesn't like being plugged in to charge or sync.
Now for some more background info. It did get deathly hot in the case I have because it has a clear face, is sealed, and it was sunny. Also, I started the bike when the phone was plugged in. I've heard this is bad for the charging circuit, but I'm leaning to the overheating as being the seminal event of the start of my sorrows because I've started the bike/truck many times with the phone plugged in. Did my luck run out?
What have I done, and how do I fix it?
i have had a white screen problem on my phone to it would go like this when just left on or when wanting to flash it in boot mode i have taken both sim card and memory card out and i have found that the memory care is curupted and works fine now will have to formate the memory card in order for it to work properly in the phone again
htc artimis 02 orbit
Yes, you can remove your memory card.
Just had similar problem. Possible reason: ROM update. Possible solution - ROM changed again (different) and hard reset. Hopefully everything will be ok. Until now (9 hours) - it is!

Did U ask the service guy abt the screen problem
I m facing an awkward problem with my WFS's touch.... It works pretty fine with everything for sometime but after some irregular time, it starts acting erratically and I simply loose the focus on the screen...... the touch buttons automatically start acting until I lock the phone using power button.... As soon as I do so, it works like a charm again after sometime....
Notes:-
1. It doesn't happen in any particular ROM.
2. It doesn't happen in any particular apps.
3. It doesn't happen in any particular time interval, it just happens, sometimes after 10 seconds only, and sometimes not even for half an hour continuously.... (I was watching a movie on phone on mxplayer.... It worked pretty fine for about 45 minutes, and all of sudden, the touch closed the movie....... I turnt the screen off and then again came back, then it happened again within 10 to 20 seconds continuously for about 10 times so I got pissed off and kept the mobile aside.......)
4. I have tried almost everything out there related to touch fixes for WFS, like unlock freeze problem solutions etc, but neither of them happens to work in my case.....
5. I just have a hunch that its moisture problem.... I guessed, that when I use my phone's screen continuously, it works like a charm like earlier, but when the screen gets heated up ,it starts reacting erratically......
If anyone has any solution of at least knows the accurate problem, I wold b really thankful to them...........
I have tried using different ROMs, Kernels etc...........
If you think it's something related to moisture. Put the phone in a rice container for 24 hours. Take the battery, mmc, and back cover first. Shut down the container tight. The moisture should be take care of.
It can also be faulty connection or another hardware problem.
This also happens to me so you are not alone. Though I have grown used to it, it is still a pain in the back side at times. I also press the power button in order to temporarily remedy the problem. This is a hardware issue either to do with as said moisture or overheating.
well...what happens with mine is when i press the power button to unlock, touchscreen doesnt respond for some time and i am unable to unlock the device. But after that touchscreen works fine. Sometimes i even cant recieve the phone! And if even a single tine drop of water falls on screen...entire screen stops working!
That happend with mee too...i just send mine to hTC service center(ahmedabad)...they replaced touch screen and motherboard for free,though with s-off with custom rom...they didnt denied for warranty,lol....!!!
Now every thing works fine.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using xda app-developers app
Lucky you smartboy....
Well as a solution I too went to customer care center they said they'd have to update the touchscreen firmware and would require a special card to do so, and for the time being they didn't have it and hence they would send a request to other center to get it.... I'm waiting for their reply when they get it....
Thanks sukhijit for the moisture solution.... I'd try that also....
Hi! This is my first time posting something here but I had no choice since a troubleshoot the handset in every single way that I could
Heres my situation, I bought a Samsung Glaxy S4 Mini GT-I9190 last month, then I was riding the bus to go work and suddently my cellphone starts getting stucked, then I restart the handset in order to refresh it ( Regular restart not forced or anything like that ) When the cellphone succesfully restarted the screen wont come up, I heard the booting sound, the lockscreen sound, even I heard some messages coming up but the screen is totally in blank
Already troubleshoot the handset removing the battery, removing the SD Card, SIM card and wait for 5 minutes but the screen didnt show up again... My handset is not rooted and I never dropped or damage it or anything like that. This situation is very frustrated because I HAVE to make so many calls to my girlfriend and my daughter and I'm not allowed to do it.
Can you Pleeeeeeeeeeeease help me out with this!? If you can its well appreciated !!! :crying:

not sure if this will help, you can try a master reset, also you haven't rooted the phone, but did you flash it.

:laugh:
Well I take my handset to the assistance because it was under warranty so... I need to wait 15 days in order to have it fixed or they give me a new one... Thank you anyways for helping me out !!! :laugh::good:
Sorry I think I might be a noob but I'm trying not to be...please be gentle.
I have a problem with my Wave Y GT5380D
I wanted to give to it someone so I did a factory reset - which I think was a big mistake! (read others have had similar problems after doing this)
At first it worked but wouldn't connect to the network - then I realised the SIM card was probably dud (had had it a while and it doesn't work on another phone) .
It was a Virgin phone but when you turn it on it gave you the option of Virgin and Tmobile - I had a valid Tmobile sim put that in and it seemed to work fine - sent and received a few texts....then disaster. :crying:
It keeps rebooting - you get to the home screen for a second and it reboots. (So the samsung screen, bada screen -if you put in a SIM card it lets you set it up/pin unlock -but no time to enter anything/get to settings etc)
I've tried using firmware recovery and intialisation in Kies -it doesn't recognise my serial number...
I've tried flashing it - but the only file I could find didn't contain the boot files...and I guess this is a boot problem?
Does that sound right? and if it is is can you point me in the right direction to find them...
Or does it sound like something else ?
Grateful for any advice... (but I am new to this so in stupid person terms would be appreciated!)
Thank you
(Right now I hate Samsung AND Bada - I want to scream, cry and jump up and down on it - updated to android because Kies/samsung wasn't recognising my phone - I couldn't even download Bada apps! Spent hours on this - couldn't get my contacts off it, then took hours to save my texts as even a text file....now this :crying: And actually in lots of ways I prefer Bada ... more user friendly )
a
I had the same problem with it. I did a factory reset then after a while it it closed out of nowhere then restart, stay up for 2 seconds then reboot again. I let it 30 minutes to do the same restart thing hoping it will change. Then I went to a phone repair shop and it reflashed my wave y. I got it back yesterday and after 2 hours of using it I went on the widgets screen and pressed the refresh button for the news. And then I figured out what was the real problem because it started doing that again . So I went to the repair shop again and now I avoid entering that first screen with the widgets :victory:
I advise you to do the same thing I did because they can fix it for like 10 euros (was the price for me) and never enter that screen again :good:
Thank you for your reply
I thought I must be too much of a noob.
I took it to a repair shop and they said they could fix it (for £10) but then got it back saying actually they couldn't. I suspect they can't find the boot files either.
Can someone point me in the right direction for a full upload - including the boot files?
It is so frustrating because it was a perfectly good phone :crying:
he is right
