hi guys,
has anyone experienced a problem where their Trinity will not "wake up" with the short press of the on/off button?
I'm sure I read about this some time ago and am trying to work out if it's hardware or OS related.
I'm running mUn's TE WM6 which I have been for many months now.
The problem has only started in the last 2 weeks or so.
I haven't installed anything new, but have enabled Push Mail for OTA mail.
It's doing it 1 or 2 times a day now and is very frustrating. The only way to wake the phone is soft reset.
When calling the phone from a landline, it does not ring and goes to voicemail.
Any advice or solutions gratefully received.
no one seen this then I guess.
Bummer (for me!)
Try hard reset

thanks John.
But do you have any fact based reason for this suggestion?
I'm happy to give it a go if there's more than 50% chance it will work.

You might have loaded a program that is not liked. Use a backup program. If this does not work then load your backup after the hard reset and you will be back to where you started
P3600 with D810 WM6 ROM; also happens occasionally, recovered with soft reset. Seems to happen most often when I press the On/Off button twice too quickly.
thanks guys.
I'm going to try the hard reset route-I'll report back.
Some time ago this happened to me so often, but said it was due to some application, in my case was Slide2Unlock.
Since I removed by their consumption of memory it didn't happened to me.
(Sorry for my english)
Bugger, this has started to happen to me as well. Only 3 times in the last 3 days but if it keeps is up that will be enough for me to do a hard reset (overdue). Strange cause the only new thing I put on in the last week has been PCM 16 which is only a copy/paste exercise.
The fix in the Hermes forum is to force your device to sleep and not let it go into standby.
I have had some problems recently with DeviceLock 1.2 just ceasing to work and have to uninstall/reinstall to make it work again. I set it to turn the screen off when locked, as this does not put the device on standby, maybe there is the same issue with it going into standby by itself.
I have the same problem..i think that it has to do with the phone hanging..most probably due to some background programs eating too much power and memory and the phone just lacks till it hangs..happens when you have other programs that have hanged as well..my problem is with PocketAlarm..it takes so long to load my phone went to standby and the phone couldnt be called back..in brief the phone just hangs because of a program..i don think it has any problem do to with the hardware or strictly the OS..cant really explain..but the role the OS play in this problem is that it allows the program to make full use of the phone till the phone cant cope with it..its the core of the OS so it cant be avoided with any other versions or anything..sorry it seems rather unclear..hope you guys understand..
same problem for me ... from times to times, when a call hang up, i push a lot of times the red button for going back to the today screen and as it shows up, i click immediately on the Power button for turning off the screen. right after when i forgot to do something (approx 1sec) i push the power button and there it doesn't turn on the screen ... strange ...
what i've installed on it :
TomTom 6
BatteryStatus with today plugin ver 1.04.203 beta4 i put tray icons too.
i've bluezard for sniffing and/or hacking bluetooth devices.
OBDgauge too it's a software that works with a bluetooth dongle i plug into the diag port of my car.
and that's all. ah yes one more thing -> i disable the "HTC Home" because i don't like it.
Same problem here...
Still no solution?
I got this problem from some version of rom by Karmba. But V7.2 is OK so far. It seems happened when I close Egress reader by click X button then turn off screen by power switch. It then would not wakeup again. But if I close Egress and check the running programs from Task Manager to make sure the Egress is not running at the background, then I can turn on or off the screen freely.
So I think this wakeup problem is caused by some running program that was not closed properly by X button then crash the WM.
That was just my personal finding. Hope it help you guys a bit.
Hello,
I have a strange problem with my HTC Artemis (O2 XDA branded, bought in Germany, no lock)
It behaves unstable and indeterministic.
Unstable means that it crashes/stucks or turns off.
Indeterministic means that it happens when i plugg it to charger, when i'm syncing, when a phone rings, when using applications/tomtom or just i arrive to work and i find the device off.
When it crashes or i find it off, the biggest problem is to boot the device. It takes me typically 10mins, when i'm always trying to press the power button, push the reset button or unplugg the battery for a while in random order until i bring it to work.
After first crach, the device also often crashes or stucks again during the boot process.
Once, the device was so dead, that it took me two days to bring it into bootloader mode and then i could at least flash the ROM.
All these was happening with ARTEMIS TOUCH 4.01 WWE - LITE NO CUBE.
Yesterday, i switched to ARTEMIS TOUCH 4.02 WWE - LITE NO CUBE (burned FW twice) without installing any other applications and the problems are still here
My personal feeling is that it is getting every week worser.
When i bought the device (eBay), there was original FW with Win Mobile 5 on it, i immediately flashed to ARTEMIS TOUCH 3.01(?) WWE - FULL WITH CUBE, i can only remember that that time I had a problem with gsm radio - from time to time i found it stucked/off - to bring it to work i had to reset the device. So i flashed to 4.01 and this issue was away, but approx 2months ago, the above described behaviour has started and nowdays i'm fighting with it 2-3x a day.
so, can anybody help?

I have a similar problem, what's really strange to me is, that as far as i can recall it started happening 2 months ago or so also!! weird huh...
my device simply reboots from time to time! even while i'm making a call.
the weird thing about these reboots is that when it comes back to live i do not have to enter my pin to enable the phone! everytime i perform a manual reboot (by software, using the pin or remove battery) i have to insert my pin to able to make a call...
i have upgraded from 3.01 full touch to 4.02 full touch about the time it started, i have now 4.02 vanilla touch but problem still occurs from time to time.
any ideas?
Im another one to join this boat!
Bought an MDA C 3, two days ago, bought of someone from gumtree.com.
Worked fine for the first hour, and then locked up - nothing on the screen, no LED. Only way to get it going was to remove battery and then press power button.
I upgraded the ROM from the original t-mob UK WM5 to mechles fine release: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371182
The lock-ups / crashes have now become rarer, on average every 4 hours (before was every 1 hour).
There is no pattern to them either, although I have saw the screen trun all corrupted just before it happens. The last one was caused when I pressed the 'start' button.
I'm on a T-Mob contract, and lost my Kaiser, got ripped of when I tryed to replace it by a tosser on here for $375 Thief on the loose thread, and was hoping my luck had changed when I bought this one!!
It is T-mob branded and I wonder if there isn't a fix on here, would T-Mob repair it under warranty??
same "issue" with no entering of PIN after reboot. But not always

Every other function or software keeps working ! The phone is just not receiving any calls or sms. So you can miss an entire day of calls and sms without knowing... Only when trying to call somebody the dialer says 'Dialing...' and nothing happens. No connection.
A soft reset is needed to get the phone working again.
"
btw, now i'm again trying to turn the device on, it's again stuck. grrr
Hello,
i had a few weeks ago a similar strange behaviour.
After changing the sd-card I had problems to turn the device on. After a hard reset it began to boot but hang.
The I flashed back to original O2 ROM. Then I had a unpredictable behaviour. Somtimes no sound. Sometimes I cound not be called. Sometimes Error message "no sim card". After every reset i had an other error.
Hard reset and flashing was no solution. Removing battery for less than 4 hours has no effect.
Then I wanted to send it back for repair. I took of the battery. The next day I wanted to try a last time and surprise: The device works fine without an error. Its hard to believe, but the removal of the battery for more than 8 hours was the solution.
Now I use it for 5 weeks without a problem.
regards
Andre
It is Happening to my device too!!
It stucks every 2-3 hours!Tried many of the cooked ROMs but nothing.Also tried all the radio roms for 1-2 days.still the same!
It stucks with no particular reason.SOmetimes in s2u2 sometimes when am receiving a call.... etc.
Had the pin problem too for 3-4 times!
I will try your sugestion ANDRE and we will see!
Also i will try flashing the original rom,cid unlock and then flash the cood rom twice!
Fingers crosed....

I think mine is sorted now, thanks to a new battery.
Installed it on Wednesday and hasn't died/crashed once since then.
I did notice before that the battery was getting warm, and I stuck the handset on the vent of my AC in the car, and this seemed to make the phone more stable.
Got one from Deal Extreme or try the XDA shop.
It worked for me!!
bricked or not?
did my device get bricked?
last friday i wanted to change firmware and during step1-cid unlocking (device should never been cid locked) pda got stucked. So i unplugged it and since then i cannot turn it on or get it into bootloader mode.
the only proof of life is when I take away battery and plugg it to power supply, then the red diod turns on and off for 1/2sec.
any idea what to do?

so my device ist still dead
is there any possibility to hard flash bootloader (when corrupt)? or the only way is to change the mainboard?

the good sign are the leds that means you have a very good chance...the guy made the piont...check the wiki
random crashes are often caused by hardware malfunction...sometimes the connection on the motherboard stuck,get broken or make a short-circuit...so check the hardware
Ok here's my problem the Alarm clock no longer goes off when my phone is shut down it only works when my phone is on I'm not sure what I did to cause this .. rooted Xperia arc .

If you are referring "off" as phone is shutdown, it means that the alarm clock will not work. This is simply because the OS is not loaded and there is no power to the phone. This is same as your laptop or an computer where you shutdown it and try to run an scheduled task.
Hope this helps.
It's just one of the many 'steps down' from regular Sony Ericsson phones (the ones without Android). I've found quite a few actually. It'd be nice if Sony Ericsson could re-add these things to Android:
FM Radio Alarm
Custom Calendar reminders (not only the pre-set amounts of time)
Alarm while the phone is off
It's all little things, but they're all things I loved my Sony Ericsson Elm and G705 for that simply aren't there anymore. And that's a shame!

If I'm not wrong, it's Android OS and not SE. Once the phone is off, the OS is unloaded from the memory completely. Just think your phone like your computer .
I still want my phone to be a phone
okay so my phone is a computer and not a phone any more witch angers me just a bit , some of my old sony ericssons had features that that some developers are charging for with there apps in the market like recording calls and I don't think having the alarm go off when the phone is off is asking for much
and a physical hang up button would be nice too I think touch screens are a bit of a fad right now that will wear off eventually even though they are quite useful all's I'm saying is we shouldn't forget how to walk just cause we have learnt how to fly otherwise we might crash and if I'm late for work cause my phone didn't go off you can mark that down as an EPIC fail in the not so smart so call smart phone category though I may be speaking to soon there might be an app for this .

I think you should first define what you mean by Phone Is Off.
If you mean the phone can only be put on by the holding the power button...I don't think this is possible at all (and never was).
If you mean the phone can be put on by any button and only the screen is off that's different story.....that should be possible since the phone is not OFF. It's similar to having screensaver on your computer.

your a crack head when i say the phone is off that means shut down turned off by the power button the phone is either off or on it's not hard to figure out !
I actually agree with him

I actually agree with him, I wondered what you meant by "off" because what really seems idiotic to me is the idea that the phone should perform any action whatsoever when the OS isn't even loaded on memory. Now if you had your phone on sleep mode and the alarm didn't set off, I can see how that constitutes a problem.

I'm sure everybody can differentiate between "Screen off" and "Phone off".
I don't know about you but it was pretty straight forward for me.

O yes, some phones had the alarm feature in the past, I remember from a nokia I once had. It sure was nice when having an empty battery or just switching off for the night.
But since I switched to WM and android later no phone could do this anymore. But he, who shuts down his phone ever nowadays
Sent from my Arc
This is about an alarm that can not survive when the phone is switched off
I am also looking for a decent breakfast about once an alarm to be alive when we turn off the phone.
because this is the first android phone and my favorite.
computer and to my knowledge only if we turn off the alarm can live as long as the power cord is not detachable and certainly with the alarm on through bios
I hope there is a way to alarm my life for android
Im totally with Torres77an. I've had 20 years of phone alarms that work when my phone is off. And by off I mean off! Lol
Now we can't get that feature? I don't care if I can put it in airplane mode all night. I prefer it off! Im actually using a 4 year old phone that has this feature... But trying to upgrade? Im picky and this is a feature that I want! Im not the only one. You'd think with all the technology around now that the manufacturers could sort it out! We had it in the 90's we had it up until a couple of years ago.
hello wonderful developers,
this is my first post in this forum. Need your help in diagonising the issue at hand on a newly flashed RR ROM for Note 2 N7100
RR-N-v5.8.5-20171206-n7100-final is the one i am using now,
Issuehone goes to sleep mode or some unkown state with screen in switched off state but if i make a call to this phone, i hear ringing from other phone. But Note 2 never makes any ring/vibrate and phone appears swithced off. no matter what buttion i click, it appears off. Only way to come out of this is to remove battery and start. Phone works fine for some hours, again goes back to the same state. its very wiered. I end up loosing all calls and unable to get any alerts as well which is very bad.
Please someone shed some light.
Did you post your question in the ROM thread?

Easiest is find and flash another rom. RR has always got some bugs since its first release (atleast for me).
I am using crDroid ,that rom is very fast ,smooth and bug free .You should flash that with pico gapps
Hello guys, I had a problem with my phone. I took a photo and the phone restarted alone. Then it started to bootloop infinte times. I do the reset button trick, I repaired with Xperia Companion, I flashed with Flashtool and it keeps bootloping every time. I send you two photos, the first shows you that it's switching on and the second where it does the bootloop with 3 red lights flashing. Can you help me?, or it's something hardware related?. In Argentina can't fix it if it's hardware because this phone wasn't launched in my country.
Okay something is going here. Sony Kill Switch activated in all Z5P?? because Why is everyone having this issue at the same time after like 5 years of smooth sailing?
OP needs to clarify what has been tried. Did you try all the basic reset tricks and holding buttons etc? if you did your last resort will be be allow boot loop to continue until drained. Then fully recharge and use the volume keys to skip the sony logo and boot to the android swirly flash screen thing. Safe boot or fast boot whatever it is
I starting to see a trend with the dates these issues are happening... hopefully this is just a user that has not tried the basics.
p.s.#Only responding coz noone else has bothered

Yesterday i Flashed my first Sony device. It failed 3 times before i got it to work.
Fist it failed on the PC, Then 2nd time It bootlooped. 3rd Time it finally installed applications. Then Bootlooped 1 more time.
I now have A Sony Z5 with 6.01. I am amazed that it worked but there are issues with both Sony phones and Xperifirm that seem to make it hit or miss
I am going to return my XZ3 becuase it is horrible. The Z5 Premium is by far the best Sony avilable. It is worth sending to SONY for repairs
@op
- Try again with Xperifirm / FlashTool 0.9.25
I did it, nothing happen. Same at always.
I keep it switched off some months to see if it starts again alone with the time but no.
It's keep bootloading.
