Hi guys,
I have just bought an o2 xda ii and am having serious problems
was trying to establish a bluetooth connection with nokia 6600 and it just froze displaying the today screen
now xda hangs after switching on and nothing works only the bluetooth light keeps on flashing
cant try anything as it doesnt function at all.
Can anybody help
Isn't There anyone who can help me...??????
Isn't There anyone who can help me...?????? :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
when you mean turn on do you talk about turn on as in turn on the top power connector
or a softreset ?
if you mean top power connector then that dont reset the pda you need to do a softreset
if you did mean a softreset then i dont know any other way then a hardreset which of cause delete all your data
Inderts the stylus in the reset hole, if that doesnt work then as the man said you will need to do a hard reset and all data will be lost, hard reset is done by pressing power while inserting stylus in reset hole.
Hi
Thanks for yr reply
I have aslo tried a hard reset but no luck
The device switches on and freezes on the blue O2 screen or sometimes goes thru the setup procedure & freezes at the today screen
Tried it a couple of times
Is there any other way please let me know.
Thanx again :? :? :?
Which ROM do you use? You can try to flash your ROM. There are plenty of treads on this forum on how to do this. Make sure you don't use a USB hub when connected to flash you're ROM. Your MDA II must be connected to a normal USB connection (I learned it the hard way....)

Hi
Sorry for the late reply as i was out of town
Dunno exactly how to identify the rom version but when switched on it shows
R 1.05.14
G 1337.14
D 1.03.00 USA
Can u please suggest what to do
Thanx
You can see which ROM version you have by going to:
Settings, System tab and then Device information.
Mine says:
ROM version 1.60.00WWE
ROM date: 12/03/03
Radio version: 1.06.01
Protocol version: 1337.16
ExtROM version: 1.60.06
So I guess you can do a ROM upgrade. To find out how to do it, just do a search on this forum for ROM upgrade and you'll find detailed describcions on how to do it. Make sure that your device is not connected via a USB hub otherwise you can have some trouble getting it done.

Thanx for the prompt reply but the problem is that the device starts goes on thru the new device setup programme & hangs nuthing beyong that
So am unable to go to the system settings
Is there any other way i can see the rom version...
Well the colors at the beginning tell you which ROM you have (but are only very short on the screen so hard to read) but you can defenitely upgrade.

No Bluettoth Hardware Installed Error Msg
Hey, this sounds like the same problem I have too! I have just posted a new subject in the "Using It" section of this Forum. Does your device also suffer from the following i.e. when the software ha loaded and you hit the bluetooth icon, does this error message come up "There is No Bluetooth Hardware Installed on this Device"? Pls read my post below.
"I have an XDA II, bought from the UK. I live in E. Africa so sending it back is a hassle. EVer since I bought it, although it was OK for a few days, a msg then came up saying "There is no bluetooth hardware installed on this device". This means I cannot put b/t on or off. Also, it affects the performance of the XDA II as it crashes frequently and loses ActiveSync connections frequently. The odd thing is that SOMETIMES, after a hard reset, it's OK again. But then when I do a subsequent hard or even soft reset the same problem occurs! So it DOES work. But not consistently. I conttacted O2 by email & tel. They were semi-helpful. I returned the XDA II to the O2 repair centre in London by courier (expensive). It came back, apparently repaired, but they had addressed the wrong thing and the problem still persists! I am loathe to sending it back without trying something for it - if you have any suggestions. Perhaps I can try a Rom Update or something to see if it sorts it. Even O2 are baffled, but I do not have the privilege of sending it off again because of where I live. Any suggestions or advice please? Many thanks. "
'Frozen' O2 screen with bluetooth light flashing
Hi to all,
I 've been having similar problems since I got my unit last November. You may be able to relate with my problems.. screen won't respond to any taps.. when you send SMS, the 'Send' button freezes... tried soft resetting, sometimes lucky, gets back to normal... at worst, does a hard reset...
after a few months of no reliable answer from local and foreign XDA help.. i'm used to either removing my battery/sim.. wait for awhile.. try to find a place where there's better network signal.. then, puts back the SIM and battery.. many times a get lucky by doing this... but there are also times that I had to do hard reset.. like two hours ago..
Hopefully, some help will come ...
For those who have yet to develop a routine to address similar problem, you may try mine...
Helpless xda II fanatic(???)

I have similar experience too. I got my XDAII last November, it runs smoth without a single hang for the first month until one day in January, while using it reboot by itself, after that day the device will just reboot anytime anywhere!
Thinking that this might be caused by some installed softwae, I hard reset my device. After the initial setup then it hang while running the auto installation from the extended rom saying that some file is missing. I hard reset again and it still hang while running the auto installation but saying another file is missing. On the day alone, I hard reset my device for more than 10 times! Each time it will either hang on the O2 startup screen or during the auto installation. Until finally one time manage to pass through the initial setup and auto installation.
On the second day, I quickly bring my set to the service centre for repair, while I describe and showing the faulty set to the service officer, the device self reboot for another couple of times.
I took back my set two days later, the service officer told me they cannot find the fault of this so they re-flash the rom for me, and they have tested it with internet browsing, mms, sms etc without any problem.
The 'repaired' set works fine for another one month until couple of week ago it start to hang during some incoming calls. When call was received, I press the answer key to answer the phone, the device would just hang with the ballon still showing on the screen, i'm not able to answer the call at all.
Last Friday, I finally hard reset the device again and re-install some my software applicaton and games. Second day morning while I was waiting for my friend, I start to attach photo to my contact, just when I attached the first photo and click on the save, the device hang! I press the soft reset button and the screen goes off without rebooting. I press the reset button again but the screen just won't come back. I even took out the battery and put in my backup battery, still the screen refuse to come back! The screen only come back when I performed a hard reset.
Today i found another problem with the device, the free memory is getting lesser and lesser by itself! Just before I type this reply, I soft reset my device and leave my device on the momory status screen, the allocated momory for the program showing 63.02Mb, in used 16.96MB and the Free momory 46.06MB. Now the in use memory increases to 30.75MB while the Free memory drops to 32.27MB!! I did not run anything in the background, I did not even tough my device!!
Anybody here can help save my device?
I have the same problem now. It is really a nightmare for all of us!!!
Exactly
Have a very similar problems 4 days in the row. Self-Blackhangs without any knowing reason. Impossible to use device longer then 10 min. HELP!!!
P.S. Some days before I try to uninstall Intellisync, wich I try, but does not use for a long time. Uninstall was unsuccessful cause .exe was "in use". There problems begins. May be. After one of hard-resets I remove .exe manually and then uninstall prog, but problems persists.
Hi guys, Fortunatly I do not have the same problems with my XDA II but I was thinking maby it is a type of software that has been installed on the device, I have noticed that some apps can cuase VERY strange things to happen (Even some THEMES!!!).... LOOK out for this..
Maybe you could try and run the XDA II after doing a hard reset as bare as possible... As in not installing any other themes or thirdparty software for a day or two and see if the device still gives your any problems... Will be interesting to find out.. I have had resets on my XDA II from using some themes avalible from the O2 website (that users have made not O2, but still) and since using the default theme I have not had a crash or a reboot since... (THIS TOOK ME FORVER to find out)... but might be worth a try..
Keep us all informed how you go with things.. Hopfully its just a pice of software or somthing simple like that...
GOOD LUCK ALL!!!
So, guys, I think that there is a HW problem. MDA freezing during initial install or during HardReset before install. Maybe "motherboard" is microbroken or so on.
Week ago I return my MDAII to T-Mobile and they will repair it to some way. I will report this way to you all as soon as possible. Let we see.

Hi all,
I have the following devis info of mine:
ROM version 1.66.00WWE
ROM date: 02/20/04
Radio version: 1.10.00
Protocol version: 1337.18
ExtROM version: 1.66.101
This Rom works great, just search for it and upgrade!!
Wish you all luck!!!
sounds a lot like the problem I'm having.
Can any of you guys install a new rom at all? mine freezes up and activesync disconnects the second it does... So I guess when flashing your rom and having it freeze up on you, you'd be even further from a solution... thoughts pls
I fixed it guys...
seems a corrupted rom was the problem hitting bootloader mode (power + action + stylus) and installing a new rom fixed my problems
let me know how it works out for you guys
Hi guys, I have a Htc Touch Dual.
Now the device has started to doing some strange things:S
- When I slide the phone up, and try to use the touchscreen, nothing happens. It doesn't react at all.
- The TouchFlo "cube" thing pop's up pretty often, without sliding it.
For example, I press "Calender/Contacts/sms/start/ etc" then the cube pop's up out of nowhere.
- Somethimes when I press "start" I get into "Calender". And the same with the right side. When I press the "running prosseses" i get into "Contacts"
I hace re-calibrated the screen several times, soft-reset, hard-reset, flashed it with several different ROM's. But nothing seems to help.
Anyone who knows what this is? Some settings in the registry or something? Or is it the hardware maybe? Please let me know!
Thanks
I would've sent it in to be repaired before flashing different ROMs onto it myself. Sounds like hardware trouble. If I were you I'd flash your original ROM and send it in to be repaired.
sounds like a hardware problem!!!
send it to repair!
I thought so :S
But I don't got my original ROM
Norwegian 16 keys, do someone know where to find it?
And after i have installed it, I just do the "reverse harspl thing"?
Is everything OK after that? Or do the repairers check sometihing else i should fix before delivery?
Hi guys , had a weird problem with my end call/power button.
Out of no where my end call button stopped working. I've found its most annoying because i usually press it to turn the screen off ( lock the screen)
The button doesnt appear to be broken or anything and doesnt work when i press hard
I did a software factory reset this morning via the phone and the button started working again! but its gone 3 hours later again!
I havent recently installed anything and it appeared out of the blue... any help??!
Same problem here! Nothing helped, hard reset, another custom rom, back to stock rom and radio...nothing. Hardware failure, I suspect. Sending it back to factory under warranty. Never had a hardware problem before in 12 yrs using mobile phones.
kinda fixed it now, dont know how though, did a hard rest and formatted mem card, removed everything and didnt reinstall half the stuff i used to have inc all the cabs from here.
its working now on the new rom just fine, but its the first time its happened to me too, and i didnt even do anything !
try a hard reset and wipe and reinstall youre old cabs at ure own risk!

Hello there,
I have a qeustion:
My HD2 with the software in my sig, sometimes wont respond when i try to unluck it, or sometimes i cant press the W on the onscreen keyboard, could it be that the place where the W is on the onscreen keyboard, is broken?
Or could it be something with the ROM/Radio?
It also happends that the screen doesnt function at all, also the sensor doesnt flip my screen, i have this witl almost all HD2 ROMS, just pick one WM or Android and it does this frequently.
But sometimes there is nothing wrong, i can easy unlock and also press the W again.
Any tips?
Thanks!
No one?
Seems no one knows how to help
Ill be flashing stock SPL and ROM and return it to the store.
I think it is the screen it self, the little part where the W key is doesnt register touch anymore. (if someone says this could not happen for example, that would help, cause i dont kow if only a "part" of a touchscreen can be broken).
apparently is definitely hardware issue.
Sent in to HTC yesterday. waiting to hear back. conveinient tracking system, too bad inconveinient manufacture
Dear memeber
i have a new problem with my htc legend its sometimes when i need to do something the touch screen give me a wrong selection and other times it not respond ,,, i do a restart for the phone and it back to work .. but i can't keep turn the phone off and re on it if somebody no how to fix this error its will be great and i keep the screen clean from everything i keep clean it but that is not help
Hello,
It happens too with my old ROM (B0.4.8), but didn't find the origin of the problem.
Sometimes it happens with my new ROM (CM9 Beta4) but only when I charge it (when by USB), as soon as I disconnect the cable, the phone is functionnal...
yeah but its not a problem with the room because i didn't do anything for the Os on it .. it just start like this sometimes it respond other times no .. if it work you have to made a selection many time or restart the phone
I experience it too. As I remembered after installing HomICS Venus this problem occur. I do not know whether its ROM related or not. I tried to flash another ROM ex. BlaYO ROM and CRQ 1.3 but the problems still persist.
I had this problem too - sent it to HTC and they exchanged my Legend for a new one ----- as I heared it is a common problem and has to do with the grounding of the touchscreen -> that is why it works sometimes and sometimes it doesnt
Sorry to say that I too suffer from this problem. Also, the part of my screen, where the power widget on the notification bar is resting, is completely unresponsive. I need to use the trackball to hit those buttons. And also, sometimes the screen can just go bananas and go into spasmic movements on its own. In my frustration once I hit the screen really hard with my knuckles and that temporarily fixed the spasmic movements. But it still reoccurs. I assume I would need my warranty to replace my phone, but my warranty has already ran out.
I can also confirm that it has NOTHING to do with your ROM. It started for me when I was running CyanogenMod 7.1, but I still have the same problems on stock ROM, HomICS, Miui, basically any ROM.
