[Q] January 6, 1980 ... - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have been suffering from this from about 3-4 months ago..
after few restarts the phone suddenly think that the date is january 6, 1980..
in about 2-4 AM..
It started at first when I went for a vacation to a different country and I thought maybe this change has messed him up.. but months have passed and probably alot of ROMs and kernals and radios have been changed but still, I run into this problem every few days when after a restart the phone thinks today is 32 years ago..
It only happens when I put the clock on "automatic"..
after it happens a "Hot-Restart" is enough to fix it.. but no less..
Is this familiar to anyone? anyone ever heard about it? if so please tell me what shell I do so?
If not, I can live with this problem..
Thank you,
Yarden.

Where did you buy the phone?

I don't know.. I bought it from a dude in my country.. how can I check it? And how difference does it make?

Doesn't really make that much difference but most cases of this I've heard happened to sprint and att users.
January 6th 1980 marked the use of the 1st GPS. Phones use it to automatically acquire date and time. That date is probably set by default. Uncheck automatic in date and time and it should be ok.

I met the 1980 issue too. But it only happenes when I change battery. Rebooting with the same battery would not trigger the problem on my DHD.

well for me its not every time I change battery its kinda randomly per ~5 times..
Isn't that bugging you every day to restart again, so you don't got solution?

You can try app clocksync.

Like hte previous post, there are apps that can fix this problem, check the market

Artemis turns off during phone call

Hi,
my Artemis turns off every now and then and I'm getting a bit pissed off by the phone. Because it happens exspecially when I'm talking to someone. The error occurred first about two weeks ago and i tried to fix wit an hard reset, but that didn't worked out. I also don't think it has anything to do with the battery, since it also turns off while being connected to the charger.
If anyone knows help, I would be grateful.
i had the same problem and the solution is ......
a new battery
My XDA Orbit is doing the same thing - randomly switching off when in use (either phone call or browsing the web). Its being doing this for over the last two to three weeks and I, too, am getting pissed off with it. My Orbit is over two years old so I'm suspecting the battery although the battery meter states everything is OK. I've just purchase a new battery on-line and, when I receive, I'll let you know if it cures the resetting issue.
Alistair
thanx, that is at least a problem with an easy solution.
@ ajmcfarlane: thx, I'll wait for your post.
Received battery on Saturday and early indications look as though it has cured the problem of the phone resetting. If anything changes, I'll keep you posted.
Cheers, Alistair
great, I'll order a battery right away
i also got same problem in my p3300 so did changing battry really solvd problms?
It will cure it.
awesome.. i think most of us have purchase this amazing handset more or less the same time..
all of our devices loosing out on batt.... no bad..
can any one please update the price of a new battery ?
i am in india now.. will be going to singapore this month end to watch the formula 1.. are there any options to buy it in singapore to save some money on it ??
how much is the new batt ??
I have over 200 of these devices in their various guises, and I can tell you that this is a very common problem. If you are lucky you only need change the battery and the device will be fine. If that does not improve matters then good luck as I am yet to find a solution when the problem is not simply the battery. At the moment my best effort is to flash the device with an upto date original ROM and change the battery. It seems to help but I can't say it fixes them as I have not monitored how the reflashed devices perform yet. I will post when I have used the reflashed devices for a few months and see how they go on

Hi radcarash,
do you have any findings? I got the same issue with one Artemis, and it seams the battery change doesn't help at all. I'm just wondering if you found already another solution to cure this world wide problem.

Battery suddenly dies in less then 8hrs?

Hey Guys
I have my tp2 for like 3months now, and till so far i like it very much!
Until yesterday, my phone started to run out of battery in like a coupe hrs after i fully charged it. Today, same thing. Could this have something to do with the fact that i installed some apps couple days ago? My cpu percentage is fine btw.
Or could this be a battery failure and does battery goes with my warranty?
Greeets,
Kay
hey whats up man, i dont have the answer to your delimma. but ive had my euro unlocked tp2 for about 2 months too and i started to have the same issue about a week ago. so i just wanted to let you know that your not the only one out there.
Obviously, your battery should not be dead only after a couple months. It's highly likely that you've got an app acting up. A sure way to know is to hard reset, don't install any apps, and see if you've still got the same problem.

automatically turned off

Hey guys i think ive got a problem, i have my a100 for a week now and i'm happy with it. But one time i used it, suddenly it reboots this was a few days ago. And just this moment i want to wake up it from sleep mode, but it was turned off, although it still has 50 % of battery. I think it's not that bad but i want to be sure that it is not a hardware problem. You have an advice?
Thanks
Try to reproduce the problem, and if you're able to, then just return it for a new one.

I did a funny think. I choose elgiganten [email protected] It didnt work until the release on 2 april. And then it was all about being able to go a distance. They had it in uppsala so i went stockholm to uppsala and got mine. Unfortunatly i got a used one that someone else had opened so i returned it and got a new one just 20 minutes later :=). So now im almost happy. Just one thing, i dont understand, i cant se 1.26 anywhere on my phone. Only 1.20. sumthing on the software version.
Regards
Baddar

I got my replaced but its the same problem with the new one aswell. Will take contact with HTC after the easter! Will use my SGS I9000 so long till it's been solved That phone is a phone you can trust on in any weather
Seriosly why do I se software version as 1.20... Anyone else in Sweden have this?.. I just saw a screenshot that showed 1.26.. and that is standard.and I don't se any uppdates avalible for my phone.
Also does everyone get a android is upgrading on restart. It says optimizing application x of y... Like it goes through all my apps n optimezes them everytime I restart my phone..

EDIT:
I went back to elgiganten. Apparently i had gotten a review version. Just changed it. I just showed them that if i tick the usb debugging mode it crasches so i got a doa. They where like no we have to send it to service but i showed him that i have only had it for so few days and i cant work with a phone that hangs all the time. So he changed it. No probs :=)

[q] [urgent help] hox restarting motherboard problem

Guys,
I am just a person like you keep watching the post, but my situtation turned out to be the worst.
I brought my HOX 6 months ago, I unlocked before 2 months and installed CFW CM10 and others. I was playing acutally with different CFW. When I got really board and wanted to go to orginal Firmware (sense) I wanted to reinstall. I did that by formatting relocking. And then one day I installed what's up and then the problem started. They phone started to restart 1 or 2 a day and it started to become more often. That time there was no JB. So I thought I will have JB and I tried many FW and nothing worked. Everything keeps restarting.
But I remember just after What's up its all happened. Now recently 20 Days before JB OFW came I updated the same by going back to the nandroid 2.17 and installed JB. But still the issue was going on. It never stopped it started to restart every 30 min - 45 min.
Now a week before I gave the phone to Customer Care (service center) today I called them to ask for an update and they r saying " please get your phone back, we cannot do anything, the unoffical sofware has damaged your mother board we need 16 K Rs for replacing the same"
Now what should I say when I go to collect the phone ?
Is there a way that we can fix this ? As I can see how can a software could damage a phone ?
NOTE: While charging the phone ever restarts !!!
This isn't going to help but I thinkthey are using that as a cop out. I'm no expert but the only way I can see that happening its out the Ron caused overhearing to the extrey. I hope I don't have go get mine repairedfor whatever reason.
Good luck mate
