Brodit Active Car Hldr : sometimes freeze and hardrst needed - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories

Sometimes (it already happened more than 10 times in 3 months), when I place my QTEK 9090 in the Broadit Actice Car Holder, the device freeze :
it cannot be turned on, the power light still flash green (no charge) and if I call my number with another phone I get an unreachable error from the operator and my qtek does not wake up.
Soft reset does not work.
Only hard reset :evil:
Anyony has the same problem ?
Cheers,
Olivier.

Having the same problem, looks like it only happens when it is sunny...
Don't have the answer yet. Some say you can change your device at your shop. Haven't tried it yet.

Yep. Same thing here as well!
I thought it was caused by software I have put on it (Pocket Plus or something). I never thought the Brodit active holder would be the problem. But as I remember it always happens when I put it in it's holder :roll:

I have installed rom 1.40 and till now still haven't had a hard reset with the carcradle...
Keep my fingers crossed! :roll:

I contacted pdashop.be (where I bought the broadit), got a repair number, and I sent the device. About 2 weeks later, I got a new broadit. It has frozen 2 times in about 2 weeks, but this time something new. It does not completely hard reset : altought I press reset while pushing ON/OFF button, the device makes a soft reset, just loosing date & time. Installed apps, contacts, calendar, etc ... remains. Strange :?:

O2 auto power off , please help

Hi all menber
I have O2 , normaly i using it no problem , but from 3 days ago , it often power off when i put it in the pocket ??? please help me
Thank you
When you say power-off you mean the little light stops flashing? Don't worry about the screen turning off, this is normal, the phone will continue to operate.
Just as long as your litte green light keeps on flashing all is well.
I've had a similar problem where my XDA switched off completely while its in my pocket and even during a phone call. Some time it takes two dozen attempts to switch it back on. I thought it was battery power but when i checked level in power settings it was 3 quarter full.
Has anyone experienced this problem, my XDA is one day old.
Thanks in advance.
I was going to ask a similar question. My problem is my XDA works fine while in the house but after a trip in the car 80% of the time my xda has no green light flashing then when I turn it on it acts like it has had a soft reset. I am wondering if this is a static problem.
My XDA Details
32MB Version
Special Rom 3.17.3
and radio 4.21
:evil:
We've seen all sorts of weird issues when an XDA loses signal for too long. You may want to upgrade Radio Stack if your version is rather old.
I have Radio Stack 4.21.00 is this the latest ? :shock:
I too suffer from this.
Sometimes i go to turn my phone on and it does a soft reset.
Never considered it resetting itself if it lost radio signal (using the latest stack)
Checking that sim flap is correctly place may help, if i bang mine then sometimes it resets (suspect that the sim card switch is being jolted)

XDA II keeps hard reseting

Has anyone else experienced this ????
I have an O2 XDA II with 1.72 , 1.14, and for no apparent reason it just decides to turn itself off, needing me to remove the battery. Instead of starting normally, it hard resets itself :/
Any advice welcomed
Just had that happen twice. It didn't turn off though; it locked up hard. The soft reset button would leave it on a black screen. Once I removed and replaced the battery, it was hard reset. Both times it happened on airplanes, maybe it's allergic to them...
What softwares do you install to your XDA2??
if u installed Pocketplus, remove it...
it caused your XDA to be death...
No Pocket Plus in my case, don't like it. I have several programs that provide the same functions, but had not caused a problem in the past.
Do you have a link to some evidence of the Pocket Plus problem?
Hello,
I've got the same problem with a new one. Just sent it back for exchange.
The only software it might have caused problems is iStatus, which worked properly on my old xdaI before.
So however if you've installed this software as well this could be a solution ...

xda2 hard reset
Had the same prob. too, fixed it by getting rid ofpocket skype.
i seemed to have cured the problem. although i'm not sure which cured it.
The XDA seemed to start hard reseting around the time I :
a) bought a spare battery from PDAMAODS (1400mAh). Am now using the original again
b) upgraded the roms from
1.66WWE (now 1.72.00)
1.10 (now 1.17)
can't remember (now 1.72.126)
c) adjusting the power settings to turn the device off after <5 mins for both battery and external power
I now have have the power setting set to constantly on, have put in the original battery and cleared the ext rom of ALL programs, and it now works fine, although battery life is now crap, as to be expected.
Hope this helps ppl with similar problems :/
Only time that my MDA-II has to hard reset is when I set Bluetooth function on. Maybe there is a bug in Bluetooth

XdaII Crashing and getting hot!

Hi,
My XdaII was running 1.50h for some time without any problems, then last week it did a hard reset for no reason and so I thought I would look at the newer versions of the OS. I tried 1.60b and then ran the DOC procedure. Everything looked good. After installing a few programs it started to do a hard reset at least once a day. Then it started dying completely, when this happened the device would not restart at all. I tried leaving it for a while and noticed it getting pretty hot. The only way to breath life back into it was to take the battery out for a couple of hours. I read something in the forums here about SPB Pocket plus3 version causing problems, I also had the problem others had with notes not syncing so I decided to try ver 1.60a and upgraded pocketplus. This has been running for a couple of days now without problems.
Since the post above I started installing more software and after a while it just locked up again, as if it had died. I tried soft reset - nothing, Hard reset - nothing. The device then started to get warm and so I took out the battery and it hard reset.
I have the following applications installed.
spb pocketplus 3 new version - trial
Transcreative magic button
Flash player active X
betaplayer
calendar +
Codewallet PRO 5
The device had been ok for two days with just spb pocket plus installed.
Any ideas? I am worried about it getting hot
Thanks,
Tony.
my xdaII have broken housing.trying to fix it just a little (but no luck,must find housing now).I have sometime similar problem,completly dead and warming.problem was from display connector(caused by opening).if this was not very good connected,xdaII sometimes work sometimes dead and warm-up.now with flex firmly connected works fine.
Thanks gabiz_ro. I might get it opened up and checked out. I have a feeling the probelm is HW.
Tony.

Star Trek restarting without notice

Sometimes when I call my wife I can't get through. When she opens her phone, it will ask her for the PIN code. Has anybody else seen this, and do you know what to do about it? No extra programs except for TomTom. Very little customization. Also when this happens, it will show that the batter is empty, but when the PIN code is pressed it will show the correct amount of battery time left after a little while. This happens totally randomly.
Go trade it for a new one.. only cure.
hhmmpp... having same problem also with the Dopod S300... auto reset and ask for pin... did you found the solution? else i would have to send it to the service centre already..
I have had the same issue with mine (rebooting without notice).
I read in a Cingular forum about a faulty battery cover switch (bottom right as your looking at the battery with the cover removed).
The quick fix is to take a very small piece of paper and place in on the switch. This will make a better contact when you re-install the battery cover.
sounds strange but since I did this (about 2 weeks ago), I haven't had a single reboot.

HELP! Phone Keeps resetting or freezing, what do I do?

I noticed earlier today my phone kept freezing.
the phone HAS been freezing on me recently, at least once an hour
but now every 3 minutes it freezes or resets itself. I have missed a LOT of calls and ttext messages etc.
today has been a disaster. i havent even synced my numbers and contacts. what should I do?
if you haven't installed anything new or tweaked just before the problem started:
as usual - backup and hard reset...
There is a free program called "pim backup" that will backup all your contacts, messages and call log. Then you can do a hard reset.
my phone freezes before I can even back up anything. its the worst
now it seems like if my phone is plugged in and charging, it gives no problem, but as soon as I unplug it, frozen.
im going to try to find PIM backup to see what that can do
wow now I have a bigger problem now. my phone fell and the transcriber cracked so only part of the screen works with touch BUT that was before I hard reset the phone and now the screen align is appearing but I cant touch all of the targets
is there a way to bypass this?
When its at the align screen you can plug it into computer and connect with active sync. Delete the Welcome shortcut from Windows/startup and soft reset. That should skip the alignment. Sorry to hear about the phone. I have a couple moguls if interested PM me about it.
I am having the same issue he was before he cracked his screen up.
I get freezing whenever the phone goes into standby and it will only restart with 2 hits of the reset button. Also it is a coinflip as to whether it will actually start up fully or just keep soft reseting for an extended period without ever loading up fully.
Anyone have any incite or ideas. I am running a ppckitchen vs of windows mobile 6.5 now. It is a kitchen version with few added programs. However I also experienced something similar to this issue with Titan Reloaded 1.3.4 as well but it stopped so I never bothered looking into it. Now this problem occurs about 10-15 times per day and it is frustrating. I am out of warranty and cant send my phone in because I replaced the housing myself.
Thanks
Dave
Also, I have US Cellular if you need to know that.
Thanks
Dave
I had the same problem kind of. Out of nowhere mine would lockup or freeze randomly. Usually after being in my pocket, after hitting all the buttons or squeezing it, it would work again (sometimes but usually after numerou reboots) but then lockup shortly after or flipping the case open and closed. Finally took the case off my phone and blew inside it today put it back together and havent had a lock up all day (1st time since i started havin the problem). It wasnt rom related as i had the same rom for a while, tried reflashing to different kinds of roms and radios but same random lockups. Somethin musta been loose
Well, I went to take my phone apart, probably the 8th or 9th time that I've done it and I ended up ripping the cable for the screen right off. So no more HTC for me for awhile. Unless of coarse someone wants to mail me a cable for free (im broke in college and my rent is due soon.) By judging by how easily the cable ripped I would bet the crease I found right by the rip had already had a slight tear in it.
Thanks for your help.
Dave
