Hello,
I have just formatted my phones memory to factory settings and then installed some programs / applications etc...
Anyway, since I did not take back up, all of my contacts are gone as well as my other data.
After formatting, there were just e-mail addresses of my friends and nothing more. I could not understand from where they came from. My first question is this.
Later on, I added some numbers manually and some numbers by copying from my sim. But, I had changed my mind and decided to carry all contacts from my previous phone to HD2. In order not to be confused I deleted all contacts. Now, When I pick a phone number from history and go to call history my phone crashes :S.
Sorry, I have told a very long story but now summing up: What should I do if my phone crashes every time when I open call history of a number (even it is saved or unknown number)
An additional question: I have installed lots of hot fixes from HTC's support page. Is it possible those hot fixes made my phone slower / confused? Moreover, I could not setup all of the hot fixes from HTC's since it says my phone is not compatible with those hot fixes :S Is it possible those installations made my phone crash when I open Call History?
Please help me, If I cannot solve the problem I'll go mad :S
Thanx in advance,
Problems are solved after a new ROM

yesterday i was using my HD2 like always
this morning it had some error's (like: storage card2 instead of storage card, opera giving "invalid signature" errors, email setup erased, some gui modifications removed (small ones like the one to remove the bars in the main screen)
and after a few tries to restore it (and some soft resets)
the device suddenly decided to completely wipe it self and return to factory mode after a soft reset!!!
luckly i only "lost" some SMS messages (still need to find a good way to back those up)
anyone who has experienced the same thing?
first time i experienced this, i really hope the device is not malfunctioning (hardware like) and it was just a bug in the software
Sounds like some software went completely insane on your device. When you have a new setup, try to add software step by step and then try for while. Maybe you have a chance to identify the bad guy!
As for the backup, did you look into MS MyPhone? It synchronizes your phone content, including the SMS messages. This way you can restore them at any given time.
hi guys
I'm not really sure what my hd2 is doing.
I wanted to listen to music but it couldn't find any music files (I use the simple music player from within htc sense). So i turned it off and forgot to turned it back on. 2-3h later (now) I reminded myself and turned it back on.
The starting process war so slow and suddenly I expected something strange and it really happened:
Windows Mobile started complete new like after an rom upgrade or your very first starting.
Calender,mails,configurations,installed software - it all rolled by my mind.
But no,everything is still there.
Ok,I need to configure WLAN again and it forgot my mail password and some minor configurations are different but it seems everything is working...
Microsoft My Phone can't be started...
"is not responding and needs to be closed due unexpected errors.go to "all programs -> my phone" to start it again"...
my HD2:
rom version: 3.14.407.2 (GER) (the "latest" official rom from htc)
mila version: 2.5.20181527.0
So...
I have no idea how this is possible. I just turned it off and on again.
And I thinks it's very strange that My Phone isn't working anymore.
Maybe broken flash memory inside my device?
Time for a hard reboot methinks
I agree with johnerz it sounds like house need to do a hard reset of your HD2. But I sugest trying to vet Microsoft My Phone working first. Have you set up hour MSN live on your HD2 sense this strange acorrance? If not do so cause you have to set it up first before Microsoft My Phone willsign in and work. Also try downlodind and reinztalling Microsoft My Phone frimths market place. Wish youluck.
I have had the same issue, had to flash back to stock, then !twice! to the rom I wanted. This solved it.
Unfortunately there was no My Phone download in the market place. So I try surfing myphone.microsoft. com. It deleted the old version of My Phone and needs to restart the device.
After restarting the date is suddenly at some time in Nov 2009?!
Anyway...it's working and I can make my backups.
But what about the hard reset?
There are two ways to do a factory reset. One way is perform a clear storage process through the phone settings. The other way is to perform a hard reset by pressing certain buttons on your phone, in cases when you are unable to start up your phone and enter the phone settings.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
there is no difference between these two methods,right?
I will remove Sim card and memory card (just in case).
And you really think this will solve my problem?
Hopefully it's not a hardwarebased problem -.-
So,I will try the clear storage process via settings...
Before posting here, I looked extensively for someone with a similar issue reported and came up empty. I also tried PPCGeeks a couple days ago and got no response. I thought I'd run this issue by the real experts before taking my phone to Sprint "experts" so that they can swap it out. Here are the details:
My Photon 4G has been rooted since right after I got it about 8 months ago and has had no problems like this until now. The only app that has updated in the last couple days is Busybox and that was the night before this all happened. My battery died and the phone did a forced shut-down that night. I plugged it in, powered it up, and let it charge all night & then noticed the problem the next morning.
I'm using DejaOffice for my calendar and contacts (contacts are also synced to the native phone list) and I use companionlink to sync everything from my desktop (Windows Vista). When I looked this morning, everything in DejaOffice was purged including my preferences (screen color, alarm defaults, etc.). I re-synced everything, powered off and then back on, and had the same problem with everything being gone.
Next, I tried purging DejaOffice data and un-installing it, re-installing it, re-syncing and then powered off/on and once again everything was gone. Finally, I did a factory reset on the whole phone (and forgot to backup my voicemails in the process...grrrrr), re-installed DejaOffice, synced, and had the same problem once I power-cycled.
One more thing to note is that before doing any of this, I attempted a backup with "My Backup Root" and got a message that my phone was no longer rooted.
It seems like the internal memory on my phone is being wiped every time it's shut down. I know the quick fix is to not shut the phone down however I'd like to get to the bottom of this and see if I need to get my phone replaced.
Any ideas??? Thanks in advance for any help/advice.
<bump> and update:
I noticed that my "webtop version" is "unavailable"...not sure if that makes a difference to my problem. Also, when this problem first presented itself, I noticed it because the ringtone that I usually use (which was stored on the phone's internal memory of course) was gone.
Once again...any help or replies would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Hey guys,
Been having some trouble with Whatsapp on my phone for a while now, I have a problem where no matter what I do, I can't complete my profile to actually USE whatsapp.
I've had Whatsapp on this same phone, uninstalled it about 6 months ago, and I've just gotten a new number in the past week so I thought I'd try and set up Whatsapp with my new number.
Installed fine, verified fine, the problem is that every time I get to the Profile Info screen that I can not skip, I can either only EVER do one of three things:
A) Try and upload a photo and have it close after three seconds
B) Press next and watch it say "Initializing.." then close after three seconds
C) Sit there pointlessly forever on the Profile Info screen and have it not crash
While it's not too much of a bother that it's not working, (seeing as I don't have any like, saved messages or anything) I would still like to be able to use Whatsapp if anyone knows how to fix this problem
Alright, now my phone, it's a Vodafone 845 (Yeahhhh I know I need a new phone) and I'm running the Fresh Zodiac Fruit custom ROM
Happened to me too once when I was messing with my phone and dirty flashed to a new rom. When I restored my old ROM, it wouldn't let me log into whatsapp and freeze at the initializing screen. I don't have a solution but my situation was fixed by factory resetting my phone (wipe cache/dalvik/system/so forth), installing a new version of the rom, verifying that whatsapp worked and then restoring my apps with titanium backup. Good luck to you.
i have the same problem, stuck on initializing.
phone: i9100 sgs2
Hello, my name is Calin and this is my first post on this forum. Even though I have been reading this forum since I bought my galaxy s3 (don't think at me as a regular user, I only visit this forum when I have a problem, since my device is not rooted many of the things aren't useful for me around here).
As a regular user as I am, I didn't have to post a new thread to find a solution to my problem, but this time it seems that I just have to. Before I proceed I just have to say that it drives me crazy, the fact that I don't know what the problem MIGHT (not is) be. I am clueless.
In the past 1-2 weeks I haven't installed any new app, from google play or from internet (.apk, yes I did this with few of the apps). Even though I have installed apps with an .apk installer (from the market) I have always scanned the file on my pc, and then after I installed it, AVG scanned it on the phone too.
Today, I was browsing the internet (9gag to be more specific), one of my daily/hourly routine. If it matters, I was in the bank and I had a strong network signal (I wasn't using wi-fi). Suddenly, after a few minutes of browsing my phone didn't recognize my sim and asked for a reboot. I clicked on continue (to reboot). After it rebooted (note that I had a lock screen numeric password: 3258) my lock screen password changed from a numeric one to a letter based one, which, ofcourse, I have no idea which is. I have tried all the passwords that came into my mind, I thought it may have sync with some of my google accounts. It didn't. I have tried to enter 3258 password (I can enter numbers too). It didn't work.
Even if it is locked, it's just some kind of screen lock because I can see apps running on background (like 3g watch dog) and I can receive calls (can answer them but I can't call back) and messages (can't read them). The only things that I can do with my phone right now are: Switch Airplane Mode: On and Off, activate or deactivate mobile data, switch from silent to vibrate or sound and ofcourse, reboot and turn off my phone.
I have tried every possible thing I could've tried to make this work, like removing the sim. It all seems to be a software problem.
Note that I don't wanna root my device in order to solve this. Thank you.
