I was wondering if anyone else was having the following issues with the new T-Mobile upgrade, and if anyone had any ideas on how to resolve them:
* The phone turns on sporadically when it is in my pocket. I think this normally happens when it tries to connect to GPRS
* The phone doesn't give me notification of my voice mail all the time
Thanks,
Dan

I'm seeing #1. In my case it looks like it's every time that the Inbox checks the email. Beta Version 4.00.16 didn't do this (so I might go back).
I had #2 occasionally even with PPC2002. Do you go in and out of coverage areas? This can cause problems, I think.
tmo never fails....
the ghost affect was an issue with the previous tmo betas...but it was not a prblm with att's latest rom
I have a different issue with my newly upgraded rom from tmo:
everything works fine
...except :shock:
wen i press the power button to turn the xda back on, it wont do anything at all
the button works to turn back light off, and to turn the unit off, but not back on
Im about to try with sum other Roms, but has any one eperienced this issue, or might know what might be causing it? (additional soft)?

I had to restart my computer to solve this... Sometimes, you need to restart the XDA also.

Upgraded Driver
If you allow the TMOBILE upgrade to install the new updates for you, it also installs a new driver in to your XDA that illiminates ALL upgrade problems from what I have seen.

Upgrade
I have done a hard reset on the phone and I run into the problem when I first start the upgrade. It goes through an initial setup of "unpacking" and after that is when I get the error on the pc. The device connects fine with ActiveSync.
I'm having the turn back on issue, and also some times my text messages don't seem to come through.
I was thinking that maybe when it turns itself on, it's a text message trying to come through or something.
My texts end up coming through in a group!
yep, same here on the sms and missed calls...
i got voice mail, from 3 days ago, show up today!
and.. sms from midnight lastnight, came today at 5pm
although, i DID make fone calls this morning, so... the out of range thingie dont apply here..
also... i cant print to IR anymore!
I just upgraded with T-Mobile.16 ROM and Radio. The only bug im experiencing is when I receive a new sms, and I read it already, the notification of "1 unread SMS" on the Today panel won't go away.
I'm also having a hard time setting up my connection settings (MMS and GRPS) for the advanced section of the connection won;t show the proxy settings. Any1 who has a solution for this? I'm usign the mobile in the Philippines that's why I need to setup the proxy per connection and not per connection group.
Upgrade
Nevermind! I hate when it's something simple like disabling the antivirus on the pc. DUH!! :roll: I have yet to get any sms. Will keep watching :shock:

I am yet to received any errors like this. The only time I seem to have the XDA turn on is when the reception fringes and it hunts down better reception. It only takes a moment of poor reception to interfear with how it receives a message and than the system waits several hours sometimes to send it.
T-Mobile as with many other carriers like Verison and AT&T state to excpet up to 24 hours for SMS messages to get through to your phone.

Yes, I had this issue today and I then unistalled the KSE TrueFax Trial (which I installed yesterday) and now the power button is working correctly again. The only way to power up the XDA was to do a soft-reset.
HTH...
i didnt think xda 1 had fax capabilities! atleast I couldnt get them to work, could u?

FYI, I had the same problems with the XDA-developers Special Edition ROM. I go into many building where I get no signal at all. My guess is that, if the SMS message fails, the T-Mobile network will retry it, but sometimes not for quite a long time.

I have a similar problem. When the device powers off automatically (after about 3min) I can't get it to come back on. Doing a soft reset actually makes it do a hard reset. Also, while it's in this "coma" state, I can receive a call and hear the person on the other end, but they only hear a ring and can't hear me.
T-mobile had no clue what to do... as usual.
Hi to all,
I have just officially Mango updated my LG Optimus 7 four days ago. Overall I'm very pleased with this new OS version, despite that in my country (Mexico) some services don't work yet (bing vision, artist art in lock screen, turn by turn navigation with bing maps app, etc.).
I started to think that WP 7.5 was almost perfect, until i discovered a 3G connection issue that didn't have before. Since yesterday I have noted that sometimes my 3G connection doesn't work after i turn it on: the 3G logo doesn't appear near to to the signal bars and, of course, i can not navigate in internet using internet explorer. I also found that this issue gets temporary fixed if i reboot the phone.
Using the search tool in this great forum, i've found that very few people had this same or similar issue , but it was before Mango update!. Since it appears that nobody got a solution at all (other than rebooting the phone or turning on-off airplane mode), i would like to know if anybody here have had this issue after Mango update and if there is a better solution than rebooting.
Thanks in advance for your help, have a nice day and keep enjoying this wonderful new OS.
P.S. Sorry for any writing misspell, English is not my native language
Hi, I was in Mango before and now i have received the official update as well. I also saw that the Bing search page does not fit the screen and also does not contain the bing audio to identify songs. Does it happen to you as well? Regards and thanks

reseat yr sim card if u have connection issues...
Castrow,
The bing screen fits well on my phone, however, i don't have bing audio service too. I hope this feature (and others) to be available soon on our countries.
Magpir,
Thank you very much, i'll try your suggestion, maybe it's the sim card altough i never had this problem until i upgraded to Mango version.
I'll post again if this solution works.
Best regards,
I had this issue in the past, until the NoDo Update was released!
After NoDo, ISSUE SOLVED! Internet connection outside Wifi perfect, and it managed perfectly. BBBUT
Now mango is launched! WTF! The problem is here again! After mango, the 3G connection is wooooooooorrse! Who else feel the same situation? Anyone that felt, could solve it somehow? It seems that drivers are not updated, I don't know. Please, don't say that it may be my Carrier! IT IS NOT! =)
Let's find together the solution guys!
Hi ralex3000,
Let me tell you that i've followed the Magpir's suggestion and it has worked at least during a day. I haven't used the 3G connection very much but i can tell you that every time i turned it on, always had a clean and quick connection.
This is what i did:
1.- Turned off the phone and pulled out the sim card.
2.- Turned on the phone without the sim card. (Why?, eerr...i don't know!)
3.- Turned off the phone again and reinstalled the sim card.
4.- Finally, turned on the phone.
Please let us know if it worked for you. I'will update if anything else occurs (i hope not).
Regards
i don't know if this is a feature or a bug, but:
when the phone's ringing, you can hang up by pressing the volume rocker up or down.
Bad news guys, the issue appeared again, so reseating the sim card is not a solution.
I'll keep searching forward.
Boredtoday
I'll try to test the bug/feature that you are experiencing, it must be a feature, maybe we should go to the official wp7 page to learn more about it.
Best regards
is your optimus sim unlocked? i have some issues in my sammy focus, and to fix it, i just enable ADC flag , reboot the phone and all works fine. Here is a thread to made this in LG Optimus 7
bing voice
change the regional settings to see more options on bing search. i still hate some delay when answering. and still hate to see my phone without skype

Now for a more permanent solution... Do you think we should contact Samsung about this?

I don't have the problem with the 3G connection on my LG Optimus 7, but other than mails and some random search I don't really use the data connection too often to assure that I don't have the problem.

When I had the same problem on my omnia 7 I solved changing my Network Operator and then resetting it. To do that Samsung has an app called Network Profile.
Managed to get a HTC Desire for an absolute steal of a price as the seller had managed to forget his lock pattern and hadn't set up a google mail account to bypass the lock pattern. Having used Android phones before I knew that if I could just figure out the correct combination of buttons on startup I'd be able to reset the phones to factory settings and have a working phone.
So, I quickly bought the phone, figured out the "Power+Vol Down" combination and ran a factory reset from within that menu.
The phone restarted and I went through the setup and everything seemed fine, until I tried to send a text/make a call.
When I send a text message, I get the message sending failed error and it retrys various times before the phone finally gives up and stops trying.
When I try and make a call the phone just hangs for a couple of seconds on the dialing screen, beeps and cuts off (as though I have no signal).
I assumed that the phone had been blocked, hence the seller was selling it so cheap and he had come up with this story of locking it out, but after having a play I realised the internet was working perfectly and I had full HSDPA signal. Now correct me if I'm wrong but I'd have no sort of connection if the phone had been blocked by the carrier?
I assumed this was a software issue and have updated from 2.2 to 2.3 but still the same issue. After updating, I've also realised that I am unable to change network carriers (I'm on TMobile and they now share networks with orange).
My sim works perfectly in other phones and if I put another sim in the Desire, it still has the same issues. The phone is locked to TMobile (not that I think that would matter), running the official HTC 2.3 Gingerbread release and as far as I'm aware my APN settins are all okay.
If anyone could shed any light onto what is going on here, and hopefully to a fix then it would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in adavnce

Hello. I've poked, googled and searched around trying to find a way to fix this annoying issue.
Long story short: till 2004-2005 Wi-Fi N bands weren't legalized for civilian use in Russia. Now they are and we here still sometimes receive such devices which block usage of those bands. I've faced the same idiocy with Xperia S.
GB worked with channels 1-11 of Wi-Fi N (yet 12-13 should have been available too since Russia != US). Still it was bearable. ICS was the same (I've inquired about this issue a couple of times on the official forum to no avail).
Here the long-awaited JB update comes up (hooray) and bam - Wi-Fi N is blocked. Now if I pull out the sim card and turn on my phone - it will successfully connect to Wi-Fi N network. If I put it in and reboot the phone - the phone will connect to the N network for the first few seconds and then - as soon as it initializes the sim card - it will drop the connection. If I don't enable 'G/N mixed mode' on my home router, it will be sitting with no connection and showing me that N network but it would not connect to it.
Now as I told before I've been searching around internetz and was able to find some lose ends and few possible fixes to this issue.
1. Region code change. Doesn't work. It did before when the phone wasn't able to connect to channels 12-13. But now when N doesn't work at all this fix doesn't help. It looks like the problem lies deeper now.
2. Messing with wpa_supplicant. Works... sorta. I've replaced stock wpa_supplicant file with this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2399391 . It kinda works after that but starts acting up further down the line. E.g. it connects to a N network and everything's cool and dandy BUT when I leave my home and wake up the phone somewhere else I see that it still thinks it's being connected to my home network. It sees the other networks around it at the moment but it doesn't want to choose them as it kinda connected to my home one. Which is nowhere near. And if I get back to my home with the phone in such state - it won't continue to exchange data over my Wi-Fi network. So to fix that I have to turn wi-fi off and then on again but I don't like such a behavior since in my town there are a lot of free wi-fi hot spots around (in public transport, at bus stations, in cafes, etc) and I'd like my phone to choose and connect to open hot spots automatically.
So could someone please shed some light on how all this restricting thing works, what mechanism is responsible for available Wi-Fi modes except region code field in the databases and how do I fix that? (or break it?). I mean the second fix is almost works but it looks like wpa_supplicant wasn't hacked properly. Maybe there are other wpa_supplicant files available?
Thank you!
Edit: forgot to mention that I'm talking here about Xperia S, firmware versions are: JB .200, .211, .96
The same problem with my xperia ION from Syria , i try many APPS to change region code but no luck , and then change wpa_supplicant file but i face same your problem and i am suffering of about this problem , and i already change my rom from 211 to 96 and the problem still .

Yea, I saw few people here from Syria and from some other African countries also and they all had similar problem. Although I didn't know anything about legal status of Wi-Fi N bands in Syria so I've decided to create a new topic.
It looks like this problem is quite wide-spread and before Sony officially acknowledges it, I hope we'll get some help from devs around here. I wonder if the devs actually look through troubleshooting branch of forum. Something tells me they don't.
I mean if there are fixes available it shouldn't be too hard to modify something in the system to get that damn thing working. This wpa_supplicant fix is especially interesting but I can't find any tutorial on how to edit it. Google keeps silence.
Did you find any solution for this problem , because I try many article but no luck .

Hi guys,
I am experiencing a bug on my Swift where the phone reboots itself during almost all calls after a minute or so. When the phone comes back on, there is no record of the call in the call log! The phone does not reboot during any other activities. Phone details below:
Wileyfox Swift
Cyanogen OS 12.1.1-YOG7DAS2FI
Kernel version 3.10.49
Build Number LMY48Y
I have checked for another similar thread without any luck. Thanks!
I have a similar,though not identical issue. Phone keeps rebooting,seemingly at random,every other day or so. During a call, listening to spotify,idle on the desk...i have an untampered with original Os on the phone.
Cheers,
Me too.
Hi, I just registered to say I'm having the same problem. If you check the Amazon UK reviews too there are several people with this rebooting problem.
So far I have:
- uninstalled all additional apps I installed
- tried it with wifi and data off
- tried the other SIM slot
- done a factory reset
and it still reboots during calls. After the factory reset things appeared to work better in general (alarms now worked properly, and there were more options available, eg in the power button menu), but it rebooted 5 seconds into a phone call, which is a record. It's usually a few minutes into it.
The factory reset didn't actually delete my data (photos, files, etc), so I am going to do a reinstall via Fastboot now; firstly because I'll have to do that I guess if I want to send it back, and secondly to see if it finally fixes it.
I personally think the update process has screwed something up. It did an update as soon as it was powered on for the first time (it to 12.1), then a couple of weeks ago did another update to 12.1.1. It was rebooting before 12.1.1, so it is either 12.1 or earlier where the problem exists.
If it still reboots after a Fastboot reinstall then it's getting send back, and I probably won't ask for another. It's a nice phone, and a nice idea but I can't have a phone that reboots during >50% of calls. That's useless.
Pretty sure you can discount the update process too! I have also had this issue on cyanogenmod nightlies, I honestly thought I had inadvertently pushed the power button..but, NO
*edit* CM13 nightlies
That's strange as I have had no such problem with mine (bought in October) and mine is rooted with the unofficial builds of CM13... Maybe it is a manufacturing error and only on some devices...
Have you tried contacting Wileyfox?
I have not experienced this yet on the Swift when making or taking calls on it.
i'm on the latest cm13 nightly for crackling. each and every time the phone is called, whichever sim, the phone reboots. what a waste...
I have the same issue of spontaneous reboots, mostly during calls but also at other times. Spoke to Wileyfox who weren't very helpful. Has anyone found a solution for this?
Hi, I'm having the very same issue (appears a few are on other forums). Has anyone found a solution? I'm about to factory reset if it continues
Update
Hi guys, so i returned my phone for repair, and they gave me a new phone. Must have been a hardware fault I assume

Hi thanks for the update, I've just factory reset, if problem persists I'll try to get a replacement too! Was it quite a quick replacement process?

I'm in South Africa and have the same problem. Whenever sound is involved, I get random reboots. Calls, and music/audio books.
Not with videos though.
It doesn't reset any other time except when I've been listening to music, or on a call.
Been doing this from the beginning.
I thought it was Google Play Music, so downloaded different player.. That made it much less frequent, but then it started affecting my calls as well.
Not happy.
Hi, UK user here. I got this phone less than a week ago and have already had this issue a few times. Two spontaneous reboots on resuming from sleep, being connected to a large WiFi network was the only change from normal use here; then twice regarding calls, once when answering then immediately after reboot it rebooted again while the missed call notification was present, although still on the aforementioned large WiFi network. Unmodified, unrooted, Cyanogen OS 6.0.1 with two sims in use.
Same issue on my a1g2.
It reboots on wf swift Roms. It stucks in call screen on a1g2 stock rom. Strange...
i am having same issue, i make any call and mobile Soft Reboots itself.
So, much annoying cannot make a single call on this WileyFox Swift mobile phone.
Making calls is the main basic purpose of every mobile, but this phone just does not let me make a single call.
.Had this issue on Cyanogen OS 5.1. Now updated to Cynogen OS 6.0.1 having same issue. I have done phone setting HARD RESET and Clean Wipe 2-3 times. Still no solution.

Maybe it's the Dialer in Cyanogen OS, i installed the Google Dialer and made it default Dialer on my Swift, i don't have any problems with reboots during calls and i make long phonecalls. You don't need root access for this.
Although Wileyfox accept that there is a grounds for returns, I believe it is a software bug in Cyanogen OS 13. This fits in with using another dialler. You could also downgrade, or switch to Cyanogenmod.
Also, I only have found the issue when receiving calls, rather than making them, although I don't use a lot of minutes.
Sent bug reports to Wileyfox.. They're saying that what they see is a battery-pull reboot..
I tell them it's happening while I'm using the phone (music or calls)..
They say they can't see what the issue is.
Cos I'm in South Africa, sending the phone overseas is pointless.
Can anyone confirm that the Google dialer does cure a phone that does the reboots during calls ?
Just got a replacement swift from Amazon after Wilyefox service department had my phone since 16th of June. Amazon argued my case and in the end just sent one to me. !
Set phone up on wifi for my wife to use then put in the Voda UK sim, checked the APN setting were OK then tried making a few calls between our phones. first reboot was after 20 seconds or so and then after various tests it rebooted 4 or 5 times at which point I gave up for the night..
Any help appreciated or do I just give up now and throw in the towel, bought original swift in late May and never managed to make it work properly !!
Thanks

Well I've given up !!!
A second Swift was supplied with the help of a Amazon Rep.
We even got a £25 Amazon gift card from Wileyfox direct for all the trouble !
Set phone up on wifi, added all apps required by my wife. Put Vodafone SIM in and ...... Shutting down message.
Restarted phone and it did it a few more times. Ordered a replacement 4G SIM in case there was a problem with the 3G SIM we had. Activated new SIM and fitted it, worked for ten minutes then rebooted itself.
SIM is fine in any other phones I've tried.
Just about to return phone to Amazon, checked and my original swift is still sat with the engineer (since 16th June !!) according to the repair company website.
I feel sorry for anyone wanting their phones repairing after what I've been through.
