I am currently using PDAViet 40005 Cross and am finding that occasionally after a soft reset, and always after Sprite Backup has gone through a backup, that my backlight is off and will not come back on until I find my way, with some difficulty in the dark, to settings/backlight where I find the slider is on 0. I drag it to the right and the backlight comes on. From then on it is fine, until the next backup, or reset, or occasionally the next time I press the power button to switch the device off.
It first happened with the Gullum TNT V4 ROM, and now with PDAViet 40005. I am wondering if it has anything to do with PocketEvolution's ScreenLock because that is a common factor and is an app I install last of all. I have removed this app, but am still getting the backlight problems.
My PDA is a Qtek S200. If I am going to need to revert permanently to WM5, is there a ROM available online?
Any advice welcomed. I have rectangular eyes with the number of ROMs I have installed over the past few days. Note I have always followed instructions, including downgrading to the recommended WM5 ROM in between.
If I could map the brightness slider to a hard button it would be useful - if there is no other solution.

did u install SPB Pocket Plus? if yes the problem is because of it !
the best WM5 ROM is Aserg AKU3.13 search it to find !
No, I have installed PocketMax Phone Alarm, PocketEvolution ScreenLock, Innesoft Cash Organiser, eWallet, SPB Backup and the battery status app that seems to crop up everywhere.
I suppose the answer is to reflash, install each app one at a time to see when the problem occurs.
Thanks for your reply, ebaskar.
I went through the time-consuming procedure of re-flashing, adding an application, checking the backlight, adding another and so on. I still couldn't pinpoint the cause of the problem - all seemed to go well, then suddenly the backlight went off and wouldn't come back on until I found my way to the backlight settings and puller the slider over again.
I decided after flashing with goodness knows how many ROMS that I am going back to WM5. I downloaded and installed Aserg AKU3.13 and after several hours all seems well. It even looks like WM6.
The only problem I have now is one I have always had - the default entry method. I'll post a thread about that in the main Prophet forum.
did you find a solution to this problem?

Well I found out what caused it. I bought a new HTC Touch and was very disappointed to find I had the same problem. It was PocketMax PhoneAlarm. As soon as that app was installed on WM6 I had the backlight problem. Even uninstalling it did not resolve the issue - I had to do a full reset and reinstall everything apart from PhoneAlarm.
It then tried PocketZen, a free alternative to PhoneAlarm. The same thing also happened with this app.
It appears that any utility which messes with backlight settings will cause the problem on WM6 - I have no idea whether it affects all phones, but it certainly affected my Qtek S200 when flashed with several different WM6 ROMS and my HTC Touch with an official out-of-the-box WM6 ROM.

Hi,
Running w2k3se 2.06 wwe for a day now. Looks quite stable. As this is intrim build (in between dcs and CHS version) there are bound to be bugs.
Most have noted camera failing the landscape. I think it would be better if we can list the bugs so that we can try to solve them.
I found many of the bugs cropped if we used older external rom files with w2kse .
Good that many of us are coming out with home cooked extended rom files. The big problem is to find which of these files are better and which are not.
Let me give you example MIDI56.sa.CAB give a better performance than MIDI561.sa.CAB. And rember the cleartype of 1.60 to 1.72 and so on.
The other problem with cooked extrom is that 70-80% file are same in many of them with very few new files. I am on dialup and it takes quite a bit of time to down load 6MB file just to get a customised cab. Also the server will have that much of load.
So my sugestion is we need a repository of file which are included in extrom. Why not seperate the cab files and just publish their customised config.txt in the post.
I think we need to create a thread of only those files. Suggestion are welcome.

OK! Lets starrt the ball rolling.
Noted the followings for v2.06 ROM posted by mystery man:-
1) Sometimes the bluetooth icon on the Today screen would mysteriously disappear. Worst case is when the Today Settings don't even have the Bluetooth Profile although the blue light is blinking.
2) The camera menu got stuck in landscape mode after repeated switching from portrait-to-landscape and vice versa. Soft reset could not resolve the problem. However, after some time of use the problem automatically resolves itself.
:roll:
"The phone is not ready. Wait 15 seconds then try again"
This is when accessing the phone icon in the settings menu, or when trying to send an sms message.

hi,
few more bugs on 2.06
1. After playing around with landscpae and portrait several times, phone would loose last two rows of buttons both in landscape as well as potrait mode. Soft reset corrected it.
2. MMS composer is not started if you choose from programs, but this can be bypassed by going to the outlook and start coposing.
If you notice startup folder of w2k3se several of the w2k3 startup programs are missing. Is that why SE is faster and I noticed my battery now lasts longer than W2K3 ;-)

This is something I've always seen if trying to access any of the phone's advanced functionality right after a reset, even with my old XDA.
This is akin to trying to access phone numbers on ye olde ubiquious nokia phone SIM card right after turning on.
Hi everyone,
I would like to kick start a thread for any application installed in the latest SE rom by mystery man. The rom seem stable nevertheless some apps seem do not really prepared for the changes. (i mean from WM2003 to WM2003SE). Let begins........
1) Battery Pack Pro v1.11-will make your today screen screwed up. How? Go Start-Settings-Today-Items-then click OK and closed it-you will get what i meant here.
Will continue to report.......
Best Rgds... :lol:
Wisbar advance freezes and requires soft reset after telephone has been used/or whilst attempting to dial.
XCPU Skalar - you have to update to version 3.85, lower version keeps system to hang
Tillanosoft Pockettweak - update to 4.2.7, lower version destroys font settings
PocketZenPhone - update to latest beta 11 version, older versions are not able to switch phone on again
Can someone tell me what is the function of "Today timeout" which constantly showed 4hrs at Start-Setings-Today?
Well why must that function included in the today settings? The problem is now and then my today screen showed nothing or clean even though i unchecked the Today timeout box to disable it.
After all i suspect something is not right wif the Today timeout option and nothing to do wif Battery Pack.
Anyone experience the above problem? :roll:
Calligrapher 7.4 (just only 7.4 ,older not has this problem)
after i install and use for 15 sec. ,then screen is locked up cannot tap anymore but Button still work.
I do soft reset and disable it then 15 sec ,screen lock again.
Only one way to solve it by using cradle sync with desktop and select remove calligrapher and then soft reset ,it will work normally again.
It may from defect in version 7.4 or conflict with XDA II.
PLease take care ,if you decide to use this version
Problems with SE (both dcs's & mysteryman)
Hey there guys!
I used this weekend (in fact starting friday evening) to upgrade my T-Mobile MDA2 from ROM 1.72 (radio 1.14) to ROM 2.xx and radio 1.18.
Although I did a lot of reflashing up to now - I want to thank you all guys for this forum, because everything I've learnt about my PPC is from here. It is shame that I cannot contribute via paypal because Bulgaria is not included in their country list.
Now.. Here is what I've experienced with my mda:
I upgraded from 1.72 T-Mobile WWE to 2.02ti... All cool - until I started to load the device with programs. I mean - it is cool and fast and nice and colorful..
A guy mentioned that SE boots faster - I can's say that - the phone would show the first boot picture, then fast will change to 2nd and then (in 2 to 5 seconds) the bluetooth led will flash (if at all) at least 5 times and then it shows the today screen or will stay there forever :-(
I understood that:
* xscallar 2.8x would not work - it freezes the system;
* sbp pocketplus 2.1 would hang the system or/and the today screen;
* sprite backup 3.0 hard-resets the system (3 in 2 times after finishing scheduled/normal backup);
* gprs monitor 2.12 would hang the today screen;
* cleartype is a way worse than in 1.60wwe
* if the system works, compared to 1.72 - it is flying! but :-(....
These problems appeared both in 2.02ti and in 2.06, no matter what extended rom I install (if I install any at all - because thru tears I tried that one too ;-) )
The (X) sign for closing programs disappears constantly and some programs could not be closed or [ok]'d :-(
Bluetooth 1.5x would either not work properly or would not work at all.
about the extended rom - i noticed this:
MMS15024_WWE_Hima_OzUp.sa.CAB, despite the lower version compared to MMS2.0.0.13 incorporates in the outlook folder and doesn't take additional space in the today screen. Also it provides sending restrictions as 100K, 200K, MAX - ;-) which is kewl 'cause I missed the ability of my SonyEricsson P900 to send unlimited in size MMS messages.
CallerIDB10, provided with 2.x SE versions cuts about 4 pixels from the bottom of the CLIP pictures and I don't like it - it has no new features or anything
For conclusion:
I liked the look of SE versions - it is really neat and fast - when it works.
But non of my really needed sofware would work as expected.
I went back to T-Mobile 1.72 (edsub's version) and I will tell you guys - there is nothing as stable and fast as it is.
This is my first post here, and I read this forum for more than 8 months. You guys rock!
Yours,
Dean

I had a big problem with 2.06-mystery man . Stuck on the every second
boot . So I had to do Hard Reset all the time.
After that I switched to 2.02 and all I can say its the most stable ROM
I know from 1.60 .
The reason I am posting here is :

I've notices that 2.06 sometimes freeses during boot when SD-card is inserted. It boots normally when SD-card is out and inserted when device finishes booting.
Cleartype in 2.06 can be tuned to look fine with cleartype tuning tool from Microsoft. I can upload it if needed.

Spb PocletPlus 2.1 is stable in my 2.06SE. The problem i encountered is the unstable widcomm bluetooth stack ( 1.5.0.801 ) which always "could not correctly initialized - BTTrayCE.exe) . can some one post some registry tweak for this?
@ mamaich
can you post the MS cleartype tuning tool please? thanks! :lol:
Phone Profiles is another one....
Using Phone Profiles 7.5 or 8.0, there is a dialog on reboot, 'Can't Find Window", (something like that), and it will not continue booting, only solution is a hard reset...
I can confirm the Calligrapher 7.4... will lock during boot, hard reset

Mine is working fairly well... I did notice the same problem you have, but I got around it by holding in the reset button until it reset itself (normally 5 secs or so). It resets fine every time. This is a pain compared to 1.66.00WWE. I haven't tried 1.72 yet. I would like to persist with the 2.06 version to see what bugs it has.
Recrem...
UPDATE:- Installing XCPUScalar Version 2.85 has completely cleared up the reset hang problem. I have configured it to auto start on soft reset, and minnimise on start. I have now reset well over 10 times and it resets as it should. I have XCPUScalar set to a min speed of 400MHz though...
I have only one problem with wm2003se 2.06 - at every call speaker mode turns on automaticly

Anyone pls HELP......
My list of problematic programs in SE
1. Mamaich's "Contact Button", which I miss dearly.
2. Pocket Zen Phone.
3. BTtools freeze Today screen. (not needed for functional purposes, only used to turn BT off automatically)
4. Still have to use EzWAP for MMS
5. Camera switch screen back to Portrait.
I just thought that amidst all the abusing by various people, and asking and begging etc, the people who actually have the rom should post their findings on it so far. Maybe say what os u used to flash, and then any problems you have had with it.
I used XP SP2 32 bit, and these are the bugs ive found:
1)I have this weird thing with the battery where even after being on 80% at night, then charging overnight, both pocketplus4 and resco today say its on 95%. The light is also green before i pull the charger out.
2)I had a problem with wisbar not showing the full start menu, in that some parts only had icons and no text, but a reinstall fixed this.
3)Opera also doesnt load my homepage properly. I have set it to the athena mobile 6 forum, and whenever i load it, it goes to www.htc.com. But when i click settings, it userdefined is selected and its the right URL.
4)Theres no top line on the tabs at the bottom in settings just the lines between "personal" "system" and "connections", ill post a screen shot if needed...
5)finally, audio sometimes doesnt resume when i pause a video and resume it.. but the video does..
Im not trying to complain here, just thought it would be good for the team to ahve somewhere to look to see the bugs people have, and maybe you can try and iron them out for the full release. that is why there was a prerelease after all.
Fianlly, please REFRAIN FROM POSTING unless you have the rom.
If your device has been "bricked" by the prerelease spl, please post in this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=385148 not here.
Solutions to bugs:
The battery bug: no soultion yet
Opera Homepage bug: instead of going to a page, then settings and clicking use current page, copy the url, and click user defined and paste the link there
The settings tabs graphic problem: Solved by a hard reset. a hard reset may also solve all graphics problems
The audio not resuming problem: disable wow hd [ people said this, i tried it, didnt work for me]
Thanks to the team for all their hard work!
Rory
3) Opera homepage was wierd for me in not working initially when I set it but ok now.
Think what I did different was to set it in "User Defined"
Its not obvious but you can finger scroll the opera settings pages down to show more options
4) Line is ok for me, running RealVGA 96dpi
5) try turning off WOW HD Settings
AP4 works great for me. Other than a few missing icons I have zero problems. The battery (new) shows 100% when fully charged.
Agile Messenger
http://www.agilemobile.com/
is an example of several applications that appear to install fine, but when you try and run them, don't start. Maybe a WM6.1 problem rather than AP4.0 ?
I REALLY do not like Agile anymore. First, they charge. Second they send your password as plaintext! How stupid is that???
And yes I do have the 95-96% battery bug.
Flashed using XPSP2 - followed the PDF exactly by updating radio to 1.57 first and then installing enableRAPI.cab before starting the update process. Have flashed before so did not need to install the drivers from boot loader mode, they were already there.
1: Task Manager icon missing at 96dpi
2: logmein seems to be an issue with WM6.1
3: camera album hangs when opening a video, needing a soft reset
4: WMP will not open in Portrait orientation in 96dpi.
5: The comm manager is still only filling a quarter of the screen in 96dpi mode.
6: Device hangs when trying to open BT SAP settings in 96dpi.
I know some people have mentioned issues with the USB to PC storage mode, but i have not tried this yet, but will report back when i do.
gonna keep testing to see what i can find and update this as i find them.
EDIT:
Fixed no. 4. - Whenever i tried to open WMP in 96dpi portrait it simply crashed and closed again. fixed in the following steps.
set real VGA back to 192 and reboot device
open WMP in portrait.
Got to menu/options and select the skins tab.
Wait for the skin to appear (this will take several seconds)
Once it has appeared on the screen, tap OK and then close WMP.
reset VGA to 96dpi and you're good to go.
This was exactly the same way i used on the WMP bug in AP2/3.
USB to PC storage actually worked VERY well for me Saved me from having to download WM5torage.
I haven't had any of thoose problems. I flashed it via xp and just clicked on the athena wrapper. my thoughts so far is that its a nice rom some annoying problems I had were the screen oriention changing when ever I soft reset. soultion was to copy the toggle to windows\startup and reset and it won't change by itself. as for opera I hated the 9.5 so I uninstalled and installed 8.65 I cant get tomtom to install on this rom. but was able to run route 66. had problems with palringo(im client) and it upgrades itself. I installed schaps configurator and maxed at all the settings. runs super fast now! questions I have for the team is why do they recommend upgrading to 1.57 radio? im using 1.38 with out any problems. another is does the new home screen require net frame 3.0 to run? or why include it in the rom. if im wrong correct me but isn't it a beta?
overall good jobs guys
tomtom 6.03 installed and running fine for me.
Only odd thing is that as you drive screen keeps swapping between landscape and portrait, so just used the icon to disable auto rotate.
What about a option for no bugs?
another thing i just noticed is that the device runs much qiucker using the netcf 2 rather than the 3 thats installed on it. another thing i noticed is that if your sending a message using the attached keyboard when your typing the sender it wont pre guess it. but if i use the sip it works fine
still existing the problem with the watch, as for AP 3. The phone each time you reset moves the zone to GMT +2
I don't understand the brick advice. It is a regular update of rom.
There too much programs no needed, still waiting for a vainilla version.
Now i see what you mean by the battery bug. I had not noticed it previously.
If i charge the device to 100%, showing in the settings menu, DCI battery bar, and also green light, as soon as i unplug the device, it drops to 96% almost immediately. I can actually watch the battery bar clicking down each percent over around 15 seconds!!
Windows media player not opening in portrait at 96dpi has been solved, simply go back to 192 and open WMP in portrait. Got to menu/options and select the skins tab.
Wait for the skin to appear (this will take several seconds)
Once it has appeared on the screen, tap ok and then close WMP.
reset VGA to 96dpi and you're good to go.

Several bugs
I have installed AP4 according to the manual and it went like clockwork.
After four days of havy use I have noticed some problems:
1. On sunday and monday I had several problems with the microdrive. Several times the drive vanished in Resco Explorer or there were strange files, or complete directories were read only. Everytime a softreset solved it. I decided to flash my device again and now everything works fine.
2. I use TomTom very often. Installing works fine but with the latest versions 6.032 build 8351 and build 8355 I have problems. It happens very often when I am navigating and I change te route, that when TomTom is recalculating, the program gives a error saying that because of an error it can not calculate the route. Only a softreset solves the problem. Tomorrow I will test the wm2003 version 6.03 on AP4 to find out if WM6.1 is the problem.
3. Today I had several problems with the radio version 1.57. It was already installed when I used AP3. After entering my pin the device connected to the intenet but there was no trafic possible. A softreset solved it. But this happened several times today while driving on the road. I also noticed a problem I had in the past with my universal. While I had te problem I disabled the phone, but the connection stayed. There was also trafic. Very strange.
4. Another thing that bothers me is TouchFlo itself. Sometimes it makes it impossible to select text. Within TomTom the screen does not respond as it did in AP3. You have to press hard and for a longer time before TomTom noticed that you pushed the screen. The same TomTom has no problem on my HTC Touch Cruise (Polaris).
5. I used F-Secure for months now but now it will not install. I had to install compact framework 2 first.
6. I noticed another thing this aftenoon. When I was in TomTom te diable call button will minimize TomTom and you cannot see it anymore with WkTASK. First I thought it hd crashed but after starting it again I noticed that the program was running in the background.
7. This evening I was browsing with RSS hub and Opera. I was hitting a link and on te page was a flashvideo. After Opera had started the page was loaded but just before it was finished Opera shutdown completely.
8. I want to end this review with saying that I also have the probem with the battery indicator not showing the 100% energie level, the htc album freezing my device, iGO8 not wanting to start, Opera not wanting to start mediaplayer after hitting an mms link. Internet Explorer does, and several websites use a specific fonts which result in a webpage with very large text. E.g. http://mobiel.nu.nl/pda which normaly shows small fonts. I have no probem with it on AP3.
Beside all these problems I like the rom. Route66 workeds perfectly on AP4 so I can live with the TomTom problem. A few weeks ago my plus account ended and I did not renew it yet.
QAN
OK, battery bug seems to be getting worse, charges fully and light goes green, all battery meters read 93%, even when still plugged in!
I am also experiencing problems with the internet as detailed by Qan. It works fine for a while and then it stops and i have to soft reset. Am going to flash back to 1.50 radio as i never had a problem with that - although i am a bit worried about flashing a radio on the pre-release as it does not have the locked SPL that would be in the final release, but i suppose if i use an updater that only contains the radio, it shouldn't be a problem (famous last words!!).
I have noticed that my touch screen seems to be much less sensitive. This I am guessing is down to touchflo waiting to see if you are going to scroll and therefore it is not picking up the quick taps. Annoying, and possibly the one thing that will send me back to AP3 dual. The touch itself bugged the hell out of me for being so unresponsive on the touch screen, but the touch dual was much better. This seems to be at the level of the original touch and not sure it is something i can live with.
This is not to detract for the rest of the ROM. It is superb, and the current bugs are minor, and no doubt the guys and gals of the AP team will fix them all in no time. I just am not a big fan of touchflo and would rather it was not there. but hey, we all have our own personal tastes.
I am unhappy with the autorotation of the screen (you can imagine while you are driving).
The device is times no responding because maybe touchflo way of work.
I don't see special speed or capacity improvement from ap 3 and times speed is lower than generic 6.1
Bluetooth disconnect more often, but not sure if it is because I moved radio 1.53
The other point I see is that there are too much stuff programs for me. I use other ones and the problem is memory...
still waiting a vainilla version, if it is possible.
I would like to be a technician in order to understand the memory improvement this rom has meaning, may I ask somebody to explain please?
hello
I have strange problem with ALL of WM 6 & WM 6.1 that i tested here. (+10)
My Device is i-mate Jamin G4.
the problem with Sound. the sound suddenly stop and dissapeare. after reading from and search i found only 1 solution for that, I should go to Settings>Sound&Notification>Notifications and play a ringtone to get the sound back. In the case sound disappear whole system sound gone and even when somebody calls or SMS there is no sound. the above solution works in 95% of roms and if it dosent bring back the sound soft reset is needed and everything ok then.
another hint is that when press green call button and keypad appears if i press buttons for around 1 minutes whole sound system went and i should use the solution . i said that because i though it might help.
this problem with wm6 & 6.1 just forced me to use official wm5 which doesn't have this problem. this problem is not only mine as i have found on forums many have this problem.
Thanks for your attention!

I am currently using this 3.1, keypad tones working fine (do you mean this? ).... ( Mine is a G3)
1. Is your speaker works fine? ( like playing music...)
2. did you try a hard reset?
3. optional flash with the lazy tool,
4.
yes, I did all steps except 3. Ill upgrade with that and inform you the results.
BTW please press around 50+ time on keypad to here keypad tones. they suddenly stop! my device is G4. I know that G3 sre better than G4 in wm6&6.1
thanks
I've had a similar issue recently: Korand's WWE3.1 (WM6.1), been running faultlessly for 3 months or so, on a Prophet G4.
Without having changed any configuration, or any new programs, I lost "most" sounds. No ringtones, though I could hear the other person on a call, via either of the 2 loudspeakers. I tried to play an mp3, and I got an error message from Pocket Tunes/WMP (could not play...) - and no alarm calls
I went to Notifications, but could not play any files. I got sound back by doing a soft reset and/or running pocketmax's wake up tweaks (run clock/calendar cleanups - I doubt these had anything to do with it...)
And then normal service was resumed, phew. I missed one more alarm call, and since then, all has been OK.

Thanks for sharing...
i'm having the same problems sometimes. it happens mainly after changing the volume via the up/down switch from off to vibrate or back to certain volume.
the solution is the same as in the first post is mentioned. go to sounds & notifications and there to incoming textmessage. play the ringtone. sometimes a second time doing that is necessary.
but as im testing many roms as well, it happens very often on wm6.1, not so often in wm6.
before i forget to mention, i own a G4 Xda Neo.
//edit: another problem i had once was after using Shadow Vista "My Edition"(wm6.1) from with the ring volume-tweak. during call i rised the volume a little bit and then suddenly my speaker stopped working. even a softreset hadnt solved that problem, then i switched often the volume and after MANY attemps i managed somehow to get it working again. i was kinda shocked
greets
guro
PS: somebody has also the problem when recieving messages and press a key to early that the orange flashled doesn't went off?
well, it looks as if there is not clear solution for this issue. well i think i should go back to WM4 and forget about all other wm6 speed and goodies.

Try a different WM6.1 ROM!
i tried lots of stuff to solve this issue...no luck at all, after flushing the stupid Thai rom, i lost the sound....still trying
well, I tried almost 90% of roms here. all wm 6.1 are having this bug . I found PDAviet 4.0.0.0.6 a bit better than other, the sound bug happens less in this rom how ever it is still there.
oh! i found this here!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371926
it looks as if this problem is with all roms, I think there must be a way to fix it on this biggest forum. still searching and reading an trying roms!!
hey guys,
since I moved to wm6 I was getting this bug, specialy with the sms notification.
but there was one rom which I did'nt have this problem if I kept the default rigntones. it was "Prophet_S4V.19701.01_F".
i'm flashing Prophet_S4V.19213.01_C, hoping it is that good too. altough I had the micro based on the s4v.19213 and and it was driving me crazy with this bug, I couldn't make it ring...
looking forward to help.
cya
well i only found a temporarily solution for this problem. i disabled the keypad tones and the problem occurs each 1-2 days once but the problem is that it is still big chance of missing important Calls and SMS I hope developers found a solution for this BIG wm6 & 6.1 issue.

not 100% of prophet does the same way~~~
1. did you really manually hardreset the prophet every new rom flash?
2. any software installed will affect the performance of it?
3. will it happens same when newly rom flash?

yes, i do hard reset by pressing comm + cam + soft > send button . each rom i try i first open key pad and press 30+ on it and i sadly see sound dissapear! it looks as if prophet is not compatible with wm6!
I am now back to the wm5 and eagerly waiting to see a solution or patch from the great developers here!
well. no fix yet pals?
i had some problem too and what I had to do is...
When ever I hold the pda, I will press the volume up button even in lock mode and if there's no any sound, that mean the sound already disappeared, I had to soft reset... I had this problem at least once in 2 days....
Hope there'll be a fix for this issue sooner...
Can anyone help me get to the bottom of theese issues....
Cant make phone calls. When I press the contacts picture it takes the phone about 2 mins before it starts to dial (if it works at all).
When typing texts it is very slow to respond often space bar will not work.
Sometimes when people phone me the loudspeaker is on and cannot be turned off.
Blank screen when waking up from standby.
General system hang up on home screen.
I am using G10 Dusk Ultimate 2 CHT HD2 v5.10 rom. But this happened with stock o2 rom also. I have hard reset sveral times but issue keeps occuring. This is the second HD2 I have had this same issue on.
I am quite new to Winmo although I fix computers for a living so I am thinking this is not a software problem and maybe its down to firmware? I am using radio version 2.07.51.22_2
If anyone can point me in the right direction or help me get to the bottom of theese problems I would be most grateful
I did once make some minor registry edits from the ""Leo's tips and tweaks" thread. Does flashing a new ROM or a hard reset erase these entries or will they still be present?

a hard reset will reset everything to how it was when it was first turned on
all issues were sorted by changing to radio 2.14.50.04
