[Q] Problem after upgrading to nordic 2.1 - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Upgraded to Nordic 2.1 as per forum, WORKING GREAT, only issue I have is that when I leave my phone sitting idle (unlock screen) it shows 'NO SIM' in phone briefly and then goes back to normal. Never did this with Donut 1.6, is this just a gremlin on my phone or are others getting the same?
Sorry to the mods if this is posted in the wrong place.....

This used to happen to me with 1.6, have not noticed with 2.1. Was usually when I unlock (screen) the phone...

seems to be ok when phone isnt idle, just sometimes when its idle its showing 'no sim' and no-one can phone or text me.

"No SIM card in phone"
I also get this when the screen goes off. It's as if the SIM Toolkit is stopped when the screen goes off, and is restarted once the phone is active.
Rogers x10
rooted
2.1

Have you guys tried removing the battery and sim, waiting 5secs and putting it back in and rebooting?

Yes, I just tried it. No effect.
It's almost like being phone-less. Can't put the phone in my pocket with the screen on, can't receive calls with the screen off. ps- Just drained the battery from leaving the screen on.

Hmm Im not sure what the problem may be. Since someone else mentioned they had experienced this on 1.6, I can't say its a possibility that the new firmware is having trouble reading an "old" sim card.
I just browsed through the phone and I see under Location & Security settings theres an option for sim card lock. Could there be a problem with the default config from flashing? It might be worth taking a look at.

"No SIM card in phone" - still
The Sim card lock is a feature to password-protect the sim card. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Can_a_sim_card_it_self_be_locked
I have not set that up.
I figured it had to do with the services running because after running a task killer for the first time, it killed the sim card. The phone automatically started the service again. This is what seems to be happening when the screen wakes.
If I could edit the services that go to sleep with the screen, that might work. If I know where that was.....

Ok, try removing the task killer and restarting the phone. If that what you said is true, maybe the task killer is the problem

I had been testing several task killers, One must have been always running in the background, even after killing all of them before setting the screen to sleep.
Uninstalled all task killers, restarted. Back to business.
Sometimes what seems most hidden is the most obvious.
Thanks for pointing out the connection kindred7.

Qtek Keeps rebooting itself, without switching phone off!

I just got back from Dubai this morning, and I recieved my first call from the plane. Fine, it worked.... but then...
disaster struck!
The phone has the "no signal" message when I click on the reception icon. I've tried to click the "turn phone off" button but nothing works...
I can't get into the phone settings in the start menu to change networks...
I'm trying to back-up to SD to do a hard reset, but the phone re-boots itself every 4 minutes! The device is also very slow in responding to the commands. E.G. when I place my phone code it takes 3 seconds just to type in the number... strange! I have 48 / 64 MB free in memory and a 256 MB SD card...
I can't connect to activesync because the decive is not being recognized.
I took out the sim card and am using a crappy nokia until I get this deal fixed.
I searched the forum for possible solutions and some came close, but none popped the cherry...
Have any of you experienced this specific situation? Is there anything I can do to recover my data before hard-reseting the Qtek? I made about 30 new contacts on the recent trip and was going to sync when I got home from the airport... but the 1010 keeps passing out on me!! It's like giving a date a full bottle of Crystal Champange before hitting the bedroom... Sucks!
HELP!
Have you tried a soft reset without the sim or sd card in the xda?
From My experience, I faced this situation (very slow response) once when I selected "Calib/Debug" option by mistake from the GSM menu in the bootloader. The only solution was to do select "Reset" from the same menu but more than once. Hope that will work with you.
PS: if you didn't go to the GSM menu, forget what I said ... your problem might have another cause.

USER FAULT Not KERNEL PANIC UPLOAD MODE

Does anyone know what this is, Or why it happens. my phone would crash and this screen would pop up. I did alot on my phone before it started to happen. I think it has something to do with GPS, but the only other people I have seen on the net to have this problem have different stories.
One says its after he rooted
Another person on the T-mobile forums reported it but didn't give a suspected reason.
Mine did it after three things happened I used the supl.google.com gps fix, and my battery showed an overheat warning when charging turned off. And My girl tried to send 15 pics she took to herself and cousin one through E-mail and the other through mms. The email and text messages to my girl gave me error messages that and a way to solve the problem (which didn't work) The only thing that worked was deleted her thread and the email.
I have since restored factory setting to see if it fixes the problems. I'll keep everyone updated.
If anyone has any ideas or has had this happen chime in maybe we can find out whats going on.
Factory Data reset was useless, it was a waste of time. It appears to be related to the GPS. After thinking about it, the radio probably burned out when i was trying to use gps while charging it in the car yesterday, it had to be 94 degrees outside probably hotter on the dash. The phone actually reset to the battery indicator and flashed a battery heat warning. Gps didn't last last long after that. It was the next morning when I started to get the error.
Called rep, and he gave me an exchange right away, no questions, will be getting another phone sat. or monday.
I realize this is a little old, but I just wanted to say that I just had the same problem today while I was using a navigation tool (Waze). I thought it might be related to the app, but maybe it is the GPS as op said.
I do realize this thread is months old but, likewise, I just had the same thing happen to me.
I wasn't using GPS though, I was simply trying to tether through usb.
Next thing I know the "kernel panic, upload mode" screen came up rendering my phone useless
I pulled the battery restarted, and did the same thing yet this time the screen didn't come up allowing me to tether and search the issue.
From the google search results I came across a thread where a guy said it had something to do with task managers/killers. He said since he unistalled the version he was using "advanced task manager" he never had the problem again.
which led him to believe it came from the wrong proccesses being killed or stopped by it which caused the kernel to crash.
Likewise...I too was using a task killer--Auto killer. So I uninstalled it as well, and now use the system default task manager to kill unwanted apps manually.
So far so good...Idk if this is the solution, but to any future readers that run across this and are having the same problem, I suggest you rid of any task killing apps that may be running. Manually kill apps on your own, and let android handle the rest.
I'm not saying dont use them at all but...unless you are an advanced enough user to understand how they work a little more, your best benefit is to leave it be.
Here are some tips that helped me fix this issue:
1. As someone said earlier, uninstall task killers. It's better to install an app that changes the os default task killer. I use autokiller and I use the preset optimum. This way the os can manage the processes and it will stay stable.
2. If you have setcpu, make sure to go to menu, autodetect device, and then set the minimum to 200.
3. If you flash a rom, if it's possible use a clockwork recovery image instead of using Odin.
After these steps, it never happened to me again.

I was using Autokiller too....I uninstalled it and everything seems fine, Idk, may had nothing to do with it...because I've used Autokiller for quite a while, way back on my G1 and never had that problem, oh well...appreciate your input.
I had several "kernel panic" warnings on my handset which I replaced. If I remember it was after using Google maps right after an update and it was hot as a ***** and could smell components melting. As far as autokiller the experience I had was that say I was online Google reader decided to check XDA for instance,go back to Steel would have closed the App out.this happened using visual task swithcher and the default last used programs panel. So I don't use it for that reason.
if your phone is Loki, use Odin, you'll be Thor.
Thread moved to Q&A.
I think this is related to some applications. This is happening to me also, I am on Stock 2.2 Rooted. First I noticed this one when I was online on Nimbuzz and my yahoo account was logged in through nimbuzz, and when I started Yahoo messenger with the same login ID I got "USER FAULT NOT KERNEL PANIC". It happened with same scenario again & again. So I dont use both together.
Again I noticed when I kept my phone on charging through USB connected to a PC, sometimes my fon went in the same Panic mode without doing anthing.
Somebody needs to find out why this is happening. some application or process is causing this problem which needs to be find out.
Vibrant Crash Response
I have the same problem! It's happened about 20 times to my phone. It crashes, gets hot as ****, and gives me the 'user fault kernel panic upload mode' screen.
I think I've narrowed it down a little though.
Things I've noticed:
1.. It only happens when the phone is charging, never on battery.
2.. It only happens after the screen is turned off, never while I'm using it (anywhere from 5 min to hours after the screen has been off).
I'm guessing its some kind of background process that uses a lot of processing power and overheats the phone..
Hope this helps. Be sure to post up if you find a solution.. I don't want to burn it up!
Just for confirmation sake are we all seeing the same Kernel Fault error? are you seeing the same codes?
RST_STAT 0X4
PMIC_IRQ1 0x0
PMIC_IRQ2 0x0
PMIC_IRQ3 0x0
PMIC_IRQ4 0x0
PMIC_STATUS1 0x0
PMIC_STATUS2 0x0
Also i have tried three different Kernels so i am pretty sure this is going to be a hardware issue.
I may be wrong though, in my case it could be a task killer.
Need help! What can we do?
My cousin had the same problem but, It did happenned on battery power, he did not activated the GPS or Google Map.
The phone is practically bricked. It does not boot to android. We tried everything and came up with no results. Even we get the battery off and waited like a minute or so, plug it back and try to turn it on and it just got us to the same screen with the message saying something about kernel panic upload mode and a bunch of red numbers at the upper left corner. He does not installed any task killer either.
I think he was trying to install a .zip file from the SD Card in clockwork recovery mode. Now we can't even get to recovery mode!
What can we do?
hardware problem
I have been running on I997UCKI4 rom. Now a days the phone suddenly keeps getting into "user fault kernel panic upload mode" and phone would not even go into 3e recovery mode.
I have to take out the battery and put it back again. It keeps heating up until I do that.
Please help.
My original vibrant had this error...
turns out was bad hardware, replaced phone and havent had the problem since.[lots of other problems but not this one]
good luck
i have some issue too

do anyone find any solution please?

Unable to scan for networks (wifi problem)

Every time I turn wi-fi on, it simply says "Unable to scan for networks". Does anyone know how to fix this. I hard reset and that didnt help.
Try a full power outage. Pull the battery. Sometimes you need to clear voltage from hardware (especially radios) in order to clear the glitch.
If you find it necessary to do this a lot, there is a deeper problem.
If this fails, take it into the store.
I took it to the store and they said its a known bug.
They said they are fixing it in an update soon.
I don't know if its true...

I had the same problem, it started when my phone dropped below the threshold for the power saving mode, I believe I went into those settings and disabled some things and got it working after a reboot (turn fast boot off)

I'm having a similar issue, my wifi goes into sleep mode and says "unable to connect to wi-fi" when i wake the phone up, but then immediately connects back to wifi. I tried changing the wi-fi sleep setting in spare parts, but nothing fixed it.

Do you have wifi set to "never sleep" in wifi settings??? Also if your running spare parts+ it also has an option to set wifi to never sleep. Also are you running any apps that puts the phone to sleep??? Also in display settings try changing your screen off time to 10 min.
Locked & Loaded
I tried the "never sleep" setting in spare parts, but the setting doesn't hold when I exit the program and open it again, it goes back to "android default". I don't see anywhere in the phone wi-fi settings to change the sleep options.
I'm unaware of any apps I'm running that put the phone to sleep, and I'm not sure what the display settings accomplish but I can try it.
None of this happened before, only thing that really has changed for me is that I got the iGrip car dock and the phone has seen dock mode a little bit. That and I went to a house with spotty wi-fi and my phone would connect and disconnect at the range of the router. I've had other issues with app/camera freezing, I'm hoping it's sd card related or perhaps due to ota's not taking correctly. I'm gonna try a sd card format/phone data reset to see if that remedies all the issues, otherwise I might go in for an exchange.

BS. You shouldn't have to wait for a custom rom for your phone to be running normal. Take that **** back again.

This happens to me. I have noticed it only happens if I have had my phone get below 30% battery at some point and the power save mode kicks in. For some reason it is not switching it back once power save mode is disabled.
Sent from my iPhone with the bigger GeeBees.
The setting isn't located under Wi-fi, look under Power, you should see the options in there. Turn power saver off, or adjust it's settings, and see if that helps, I wouldn't use spare parts
I did a full phone/sd card reset, and the problem STILL exists for me. Spare parts did restore itself as one of the applications that got restored, I uninstalled it without running it though. My phone settings seem to have gotten reset as well. I don't get it, my phone was fine even with spare parts installed before.
I might try another reset and see if spare parts still restores itself.

[Q] Weird issue with notifications and ring tones changing

I have had my Rezound for 30 days today. This morning while driving into work my phone was on the Verizon GPS dock and the died due to low battery. It was the first time I actually let it discharge completely. Later at work I got a call and the ring tone I set up for that person was different. I went into all the contacts I assigned ring tones to and they were all changed. I then opened up GO SMS and all the notifications I had assigned were all changed as well. There does not appear to be any rhyme or reason to the pattern of the changed ring tones and notifications and nothing else on the phone appears to have been affected.
I used to have a problem like that occasionally on my HTC EVO 4G, but that was only when I was restoring some nandroid backups. Obviously that would not be the case with the Rezound, so I am left with a question. Was it an issue with the GPS Dock or the battery discharge completely? Or could it be that it discharged while on the GPS dock? I searched the forum and could not find anyone with this exact same issue so not if this is something new or an old issue. Minor annoyance I guess, but we all know how long it takes setting up your ring tones and notifications.
Mine did the same thing yesterday except that it had a charge.
Then last night it just started boot looping for no reason.

Now that I started looking at the phone it started flickering so I am thinking I might have to do a factory reset to see if that fixes it.

Mine had similar problems, my apn changed on its own and couldnt get a data connection, and my ringtones changed. I reset the apn to default which fixed the data but then I kept getting 1x when my wifes was on 3g. So anyway did a factory reset and everything working great now.
yeah, i thought it was go sms...go was changing my text noise to a SONG in my music folder lol...and my ringtone sometimes changed back to default, but that was because i had my ringtones on the external SD, when they should be on internal..everytime you plug it into the PC, it'll reset to the stock ringtone. but yeah as for tones, idk why that does it.
I am 'glad' I am not the only one, but not sure if I want to do a factory reset in case the phone got boinked or to just reassign the notifications and ring tones. If multiple phones had this issue and it seems to be on the day they had a huge network outage could that be the cause.
I've had issues with notifications changing randomly, generally when it dies or I do a full reset. My favorite was when I missed some important calls because it changed my ringtone to silent. I refuse to do a factory reset, though. Too much hassle, so I periodically check my sounds.
Sent from my Rezound in a tiny corner of hell.
Ugh, my phone wasn't doing this at all. Then I did a factory reset to try to take care of the Mobile Hot Spot issue, and now my notification sounds are changing.
Time for an OTA update, hTC!!
Has anyone been calling Verizon to report this issue? Squeaky wheel gets the oil or else we're just whining to each other on the internet.
isn't it , squeeky wheel gets the grease? lol
Temp Root
This only happens after I temp root. It unmounts the SD card and changes all of my custom ringtones for different contacts.
Leave more info of this buggy issue
My wife had the same issue once!!! But I haven't encountered after that, can you guys leave some info for reference? BTW, if ur custom ringtone is mp3. saved in external storage, did you remove SD card or set disk drive mode while issue happening?
My device
ROM version:1.02.605.6
Issue happened step: Can't repro!!
It's happening to me now and it started when I changed out my battery. Probably just a coincidence. Having to keep fixing ring tones is a pain in the ass.
KORM via the beast known as the Rezound.
I was having the same issue because I was temp rooting a lot. I fixed this by putting the ringtone and notification that I always use into the system/media/audio. This prevents it from changing it to something else, or to nothing selected, when the SD card is unmounted.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW... An HTC Rezound
Seen this a few times in recent days myself (Unrooted/ Stock). Not 100% sure, but it looks like the SD card is somehow getting ninja unmounted when the battery dies (or is about to die) because i'm also not able to access anything on the SD card after that happens. I'll try to test again today to confirm if this is the actual trigger. For me, a reboot automatically remounts the SD card correctly - restoring any missing ringtones/notifications in apps, without having to manually set up each one. The odd thing is that when this happens, settings > sd & phone storage still shows the SD card as mounted. Also weird: manually unmounting/ remounting the SD card via will let me re-access some files (photos), but ringtone links are still dead. A reboot fully solves the issue until the next occurance. This probably needs to be reported as a bug.
It has been happening to me a lot. Seems like I reboot my phone and at least 1 ringtone will default to Silent.
I just moved all my ringtones and notifications to the system/media folder. I will see if it sticks.

Confirmed yesterday that "about to die" wasn't the trigger. Will try to let it die all the way to see if I can get it to barf again.
I am having this issue also and it is driving me crazy. It is also changing to like a random ringtone and my alarm sound even has changed. I have not hooked it up to my PC in a few days and am not rooted or unlocked. Only thing I can think of is when I rebooted it since I do not let it die very often. I was beginning to think my phone was haunted ;P LOL j/k But seriously it should not do this!!
Same issue with downloaded notification tones and alarm sounds changing and/or resetting. It hasn't happened in a while. I won't speculate the cause at this point. Glad it's not just me.

Let the phone fully die last night. Plugged in & charged to about 75% before I turned it back on. Checked to see if Alarm was able to read SD ringtones. YEEEEUUUUP.
So it seems like this issue is random, which makes it slightly more annoying.
W/e, it's a bug that is somehow related to rebooting & hopefully it will be caught/ fixed by HTC in the next patch. For me, the issue is rare and a manual reboot fixes the borked notifications. I can live with that for a while.
I've had this happen on reboot as well. It, along with the network bootloop issue, seem to be completely random upon reboot and everyone needs to make sure to report these bugs to HTC. These are both VERY annoying!

Phone restarts randomly, and sd card shows corrupted

Hi,
My phone restarts randomly and when it comes back, the sd card isn't read. When I go to storage it shows corrupted, and says that it needs to be setup. When I restart the phone myself the sd card works as if nothing happened. I've purchased a new sd just in case, and they're both doing the same thing. Both have no read errors on my pc. When the phone restarts itself, it's a quick restart, shows the samsung logo then back to home screen.
I haven't installed any new apps, but I did do an OTA upgrade to N950U1UEU5CRK1 version. It started happening soon after
Random restart and loss of data
I myself am having the same issue. After the random restart I find that some of my apps will not work properly as if saved data is now missing. I have found that restarting the device again after random restart is a quick fix until it happens again. It was happening on a daily basis multiple times per day, but now I haven't noticed as much eitehr that or I am not paying close attention.
