Can anyone know why after upgrade XDAII to T-mobile the ringintone sound turn clikli (diffrent) and I have update the extended rom also the same.
I have encounter the same situation, the ringtone vol turns too large and cannot lower it as i try to adjust the setting. I suspect is the problem is came out from the file-MIDI56.sa.cab inside the extended ROM
I think you can soft the problem, you can use the T-mobile, UK extended rom and reinstall the Midi.cab then will soft, because early I try and soft the problem, only when I upgrade time modify the extended rom from asia, then come to this problem.
I better have a try tonight. Thanks for your suggestion! :lol:

Elo,
I've just upgraded my XDA II to the new O2 UK ROM (.187). Before the upgrade, it was rather sluggish when turned off. It would take anywhere from 1 to 5 seconds to swith off after the button was pressed.
Now that I've upgraded, the problem is still there, AND it's now really slow to turn back on when the on/off button is pressed.
Any suggestions guys?
Thx,
B
I have the same problem but it occur from ROM 1.72 O2 UK.
I don't know the reason why it happen but it doesn't occur in ROM 1.60.
I try to remove all today-plugin but it still occur.
Does anyone have idea about it?
I have exactly the same problem. I haven't noticed that in the old O2 1.60.50 cersion but it is very bad in the 1.72.187 I have.
A couple of times it didn't turn on at all! It was only after a HARD reset it came back to life!!
I removed to O2 Active User Interface thing, and that made everything speed up a lot. Including the On/Off function.
However, after about 2 weeks, the problem has returned. The system in general is quite speedy, however the on/off is once again nice and slow.
Ergh.
Anyone got any suggestions?

I have searched this and could not come up with any fixes, but here goes.
On my 8525 most of my front buttons would quite working (Send, End, OK, Start Menu, and Both Top Menu select buttons) on every Cingular 2.06 Rom. This would be a daily thing that could be fixed by a soft reset. Then I upgraded to XDA Live 2.0 everything worked great for a while when all of a sudden all of the front buttons stopped working, all of them except the dpad. I did a soft reset and even a hard reset, and every time it would still not be working. I freaked out the only thing I could think to do is to downgrade to the original Rom 1.34 that was on it when I received it so I could try to send it in for warranty. After the downgrade all the buttons have been working now.
So in my mind I am thinking this is a software issue rather than a hardware problem. But if that is the case what would cause this? Is there any kind of fix?
I really want to put WM6 back on my device, but not at the cost of my hardware buttons.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Aww cmon nobody has anything to say and nobody has ever run into this? Should I just try to reupgrade with different radio and BL. Would the BL or the Radio have any remote relation to this problem?
Need your help here GuRu's.
Never heard of this problem before. There is a fix for the 8525 keyboard in the XDA Live extras, but I'm almost certain it doesn't affect the front buttons.
I'd almost say that its a problem physically with a broken/barely connected button membrane or something similar.. and the action of you moving the phone to reset it/pressing the button is enough to connect it again.
If you're sure its working 100% now, try flashing XDA Live again and seeing if it kills it again!

Just a couple ideas. First, what 3rd party apps have you installed after upgrading and have you changed anything in the "softkey" program? Also, when you said you did a hard reset, was it a real hard reset, or just a power down? Some people at first get the two mixed up.
Also, the radio and bl wouldn't have anything to do with a problem like this.
Like TAURUSBulba said, I would think that it HAS to do with some cab/registry or executable you install that is common to all the ROMS that makes it do this. I would suggest you check out your installed applications and research what might create this problem.
The Rest was an actual "hard reset" with nothing else installed on phone except for system files (fresh system). I did not think the BL or Radio would have anything to do with it, I just wanted to be sure. I will try to re-upgrade to XDA Live 2.0 again when I can find some extra time. I will post results if anything changes or I continue to keep having this problem.
I appreciate your feedback.
Thank You
I have tried about 5 different WM6 roms from here mostly Gullums roms(VII, VIII, IXb, X). I am sure there are other roms that I cannot remember. By the way thank you to Gullum for his hard work cooking these roms. They seem to work fine for a few days then my device's power button will not turn on the screen and I cannot pick up a call or use the device unless I do a soft reset. The last rom I had which was VIII would require a hard reset and a lost of data. My question is wether this is the roms which have issues or just my device which is dying slowly. When I first got this device I had to ship it back to Spain because the motherboard died after a few days of use and flashing from WM5 in Spanish to WM5 in English. Has anyone had similar issues with their qtek s200 after flashing.
hope it might help!

hope it might help u out
I am now trying transformer 1.1 and so far no power button issues. Its only been 24hrs. The problem tends to happen anytime but usually after 1 week of installing. The other issues I was having with the other roms listed was that the program would get stuck on the second screen past the initial ipl/qtek screen. Hopefully this rom will work.
I have this problem as well, but believe it has to do with Pocket player. Are you using any applications that listen to button events?

I am not sure what you mean. Do you mean the windows music player. I am trying the transformer 1.1 rom but after 48hrs, today the same thing happened. I was just surfing the web on opera while in line to vote. It has happened while receiving a phone call as well and I cannot turn the screen on to answer. I did a soft reset and everything was ok. Unfortunatelly sometimes also what happens is that the software doesn't load and it requires a hard reset.
Actually i had the same problems when i use gullums rom for some reason.. I have had this problem with all of gullums rom except the coffie rom ! Try that and report back..
sorry, thread flush only~~
I also had the mentioned problem, especially with the battery <50%.
Sometimes, when I'm listening with the built in audio player and the screen is off, the playback stopps right after a track and the screen won't turn on again.
A softreset helped each time.
Also the phone is logged in in the gsm net, the caller hears the ringing, but the phone didn't ring.
Strange thing. I had the problem with ProphetTouch IX and VIII, yesterday I flashed number X.

I have had same issue with all of those. I'd hate to downgrade to wm5 to try it a couple of days and see. Maybe I'll do that.
After closing all running programs, especially Conduits Pocket Player, this problem seems to go away. I have noticed that when I start the pocket player and wait until the screen turns off, I can not turn it back on with the power button.
I my case it seems to be connected with Pocket Player, but it could just as well be ROM related. I'll keep looking for a source.
I hope there is a simple solution to this, as it is quite annoying.
i have the same problem b4 last time, when the batery status- lock device when wake up fuction is tick.
Hi there all,
<rant>
So I finally got around to flashing WM6 onto my hermes... to give you a bit of background; I had completely stopped using my hermes and had gone back to my ancient (in tech terms) Nokia 6230i after WM5 had become perishingly slow. It had become so much of a pain to connect to my parrot handsfree that I had stopped using that too... (£114 wasted). Also on every phone call there was at least a three ring delay from someone calling me, to my phone realising it should be ringing... not impressed.
So I thought that a flash to a WM6 rom might help, after having a look around for a little while, I went for Schaps 4.31, initially, its a massive improvement, the phone is quick and responsive, and generally runs much quicker, plus there are lots of nice little things like HTC home...
However the delayed phone ringing still seems to be an issue... when I am in the middle of using the phone or if the phone is out of standby and I receive a phone call, it seems to react much quicker than WM5 ever did, almost instantly realising that it should be ringing, much better. However, if the device has gone into standby, then it will completely ignore that there is an incoming call... It simply does not ring... I have just tried 3 or 4 times and my phone hasn't rung once, after I have hung up on my home phone I have been bringing the device out of standby to see if it has registered the call at all, as soon as I turn the device on there is a missed call on it...
This is so intensely irritating! As I am sure you can appreiciate! At least with WM5 there would be a wait of 3-4 rings beofre it brought itself out of standby and then it would ring, but with WM6, nothing! Surely I can't be the only one experiencing this? I can't even say that this might be just my hermes, as I had it replaced by vodafone about 2 months ago...
Sadly... I will be reverting back to my Nokia after I have written this, at least it is able to send/ receive calls without falling over... I cannot belive that I have a piece of hardware sitting on my desk that is, after all the bells and whistles, supposed to be a phone, and doesn't work as one!!! If an old Nokia can manage it why cant my hermes? At this moment there is a hermes selling on ebay of £139, I am very tempted....
Annoyingly my friends iPhone seems to do all the phone functions flawlessly along with lots of lovely web and data integration... It is still apple though..
Does anyone have any suggestions to improve my woes?
Sorry for the massive <\rant>

Update...
About half an hour ago I completed a radio ROM update to 1.56.70.11, I thought that updating the radio stack might go some way to solving my delayed call issues.
Well it hasn't helped at all. The acquisition of signal, and the strength of that signal seems improved, but if my device is in standby then it simply doesn't wake up if there is a call coming in. This effectively renders my tytn totally useless...
Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this? I am sure I can't be the only person experiencing this...?
For reference my phone is now running:
Rom: Schaps 4.31 LITE
Radio: 1.56.70.11
Any help would be hugely appreciated...
Trinityj5.
You could try updating the os to fix the standby problem... Schaps 4.31 LITE is fairly old now, If I was you I'd try a wm6.1... They're fairly stable now and are pretty quick too. You could also try to update the .net framework on your PDA to 3.5 but this may require you to do some registry tweaking. Easier to find a cooked os with .net 3.5 already cooked in.
I've always had my phone wake up when a call comes in - even in standby so not sure why yours doesn't. Could be a setting you or your network have imposed.
Make sure you've Hard SPLed your phone before flashing though...
Cheers...
Thanks for your reply ultramag, I think I did at some point have a 6.1 ROM on my hermes, and I don't think it made any difference to the call delay issues. I will flash one again tonight and then report back...
Which 6.1 rom would you recommend?
Why would updating the .net help with incoming call issues?
Cheers.
For the wm6.1 roms I prefer the PDAViet roms and PDACorner roms. Other roms are good too but I like these ones best...
I don't know if updating the .net framework on your phone will speed it up but it does seem to speed up windows. I may be wrong, but if you can speed up the time it takes windows to register the call then wouldn't it speed up the time it rings?
I believe you can change the call forwarding time up to 30 secs if the network only gives you 5 or 10. Its in settings>personal>phone>services>call forwarding.
Hope this helps...
Cheers...
Will upgrade to WM6 lock phone again?
Greetings to All and Thank God For this Forum
I successfully unlocked my Cingular 8525 >year ago. I am still running WM5. I would like to use a micro sd card greater than the 2Gb now installed and believe that is possible with WM6 OS. I'm concerned that I not lock my phone if I upgrade with AT&T's download of WM6. TIA-
docwollf, not sure posting in here will get you very far, try posting in the main forum...
ultramag69, thanks for your suggestion about the PDAviet and PDA corner roms, I tried both, and still my phone doesn't want to work.... Do you think that flashing an "official" rom might help? There has been some mention on here that if your phone starts to become unstable then flashing an official ROM may help, do you think it might help me?
Does anyone have any idea at all why my phone might not ring when it's in standby? Its starting to become intensely annoying to be honest....
Trinityj5.
Try flashing the official rom first, then flash your phone with hardspl, then try the new rom. That may work, but it almost sounds like you have a hardware issue.
Thanks for your reply backspacepc,
When I said to install an official ROM, I meant one like the at&t one or the dopod aisa one, I don't have a WM6 ROM for vodafone, they never released one... would going back to the Voda WM5, then hard spl, then a WM6 ROM help do you think?
I am thinking the same as you about hardware... is there a firmware upgrade at all? I have tried over 10 different ROM's now, some WM6 some WM6.1, still no improvement on the ring delay....
If I hadn't have voided the warranty by flashing etc, I would be sending it back....
Any help is hugely appreciated, as you can probably tell, getting quite exasperated with it now...
Trinityj5.
If you downgrade the SPL back to stock and the original os back to stock then you can take it back under warranty. There are instructions in the wiki on how to do this. I believe you may ALREADY have Hard SPL on your Hermes (to check go to bootloader - hold power, OK button above flywheel and reset with stylus, hold in untilyou get to the tri-colour screen. If your SPL is 2.10 olipro, its Hard SPLed) which means you're gonna have to downgrade the SPL. Unless you supercid your Hermes.
You can find the downgrade instructions, I believe, in mr Vanx's tutorials...
Cheers...
Thanks for your reply ultramag,
I do indeed already have Hard SPL on my hermes, I put it there...
I have been looking at downgrading back to stock and then seeing if I can get it replaced, I find it unlikely that voda will even consider it to be honest... HTC might though...
Is there a hardware upgrade that I can try out at all?
Cheers,
Trinityj5
If you open it then you will DEFINATELY void warranty... If you still are within the warranty period its better to send in for repairs than to fiddle yourself.
There are manuals floating around (HTC service manual) that tells you how to take apart and put your Hermes back together, just do a search. Or if you want try Mike Channon's webpage, found at the bottom of his posts. However, if you still have warranty, thats the best way to go...
Cheers...
Sorry! I didn't mean hardware upgrade, I meant firmware....
Are there any firmware upgrades around? It strikes me that the phone doesn't know how to handle a call when it is coming in, so it just ignores it... A firmware issue?
Cheers, sorry again for the mix up!

1st thing I'd do is to check all my settings. Both phone and volume. Maybe, if you back up and restore the same settings, you've backed it up for silent or vibrate only.
I know that when a call comes through that its slower to wake up from standby when it also has to access the sd card for an MP3 ringtone....
Check out, with Schapps advanced config, how long it takes the battery & AC to resume from timeout. I set mine to about 10 secs.
Also, you should check how much time it takes before call forwarding kicks in. Go to settings>personal>Phone>services>call forwarding. You can set it to a maximum of 30 secs.
These may or may not help, I'm just throwing ideas out.
Hope they help...
Well I didn't back up my settings, it was a brand new phone when I started so I didn't have any settings to restore.
I have mine set to 10 secs too...
My call forwarding is also set to 30 secs...
Thanks for all your suggestions, I think I might downgrade everything back to stock and see what happens from there...
I'm still wondering what exactly is going wrong in my device... It must be some kind of programming setting that has been set wrong... utterly bizzare... can anyone offer any advice to this end?

Hi,
I have been having problems with my phone freezing every so often and so have found doing a soft reset quite often. I was going to do a hard reset on my phone and thought I might put on the HTC WM 6.1. Has anyone with the same phone as me put this update on there phone?
I just what to know if the update has improved the phone at all and what radio version you might be using.
Any help and feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks
My T-Mobile Touch plus was needing a "full power cycle" at least every day. Used to keep loosing the clock or weather images and only way to get em back was powering off then turning back on.
Followed the guide on here, but used hard spl 1.21.
Flashed with the offical HTC 6.1 for touch plus.
Much better, no more power cycling the phone.
Just waiting for 6.5 to come along and try that, but at the end of my contract im going to switch to Iphone since they have announced "cut'n'paste" at last. Plus it has does push email. Getting fed up with the screen on the touch plus.
Hi Shoei
Thanks for the reply. I have upgraded to the official HTC 6.1 now with hard spl 1.22
I have notice a difference with performance already, and no more power cycling.
