Hi,
i am using stock alarm on my HD2, but after a month, it stuck at 7am. Every morning it rings. All stock alarms and appointments are off.
Only solution was hard reset. But after few weeks the same problem..
If i make full backup with spb backup, do HR and restore backup, problem persists. Can somebody help me with this?
Alarms are not allways at 7am, it seems that it freeze on some alarm i set.
I have stock windows mobile 6.5 and CHT interface.
Found simmilar problem, just on diamond2.

I have suffered this before, the only solution was a hard reset.
I could not find any reason for this whatsoever.
I would not advise using a backup as the backup may contain the problem and be the reason it starts up again.
Hard reset and set things up again from scratch, make a new backup.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Hope that helps.
as I recall Dotfred's Task Manager (free) and MemMaid ($$$, with 14-day trial) both have some kind of notification queue managers - maybe you could check the alarm list in any of those, and - if existing and possible - remove the annoying one
Had the same thing, solved it by by changed the alarm time, let it go of ones, after that i was abel to turn it of. Has not locked itself again.

Hello Guys!
I'm currently trying to have my hero in sleep mode most of the time. the big problem seems: when the screen is turned off (its like partial wake or something, i'm sorry i have the german version "teilwachzustand") my phone is actually 70-80% active of the time.
I determine this with the program spareparts. sadly it's not a specific app, it's just "android system" i reckon that this includes processes running and widgets etc. i haven't found a programm that watches which processes drain the energy.
A friend of mine has a stock samsung android also with spareparts, and his has a 10 percent active time when the phone screen is turned off.
So is the Hero (MODACO 3.1) just the way it is of do i have a bad widget or program running causing this permanent use of the phone?
(i have beautiful widgets (only the vibrate button and clock), astrid list, and mostly apps)
i tried one night loading an empty scene no widgets at all. and still phoneusage 70% .....
i am aware that processes are running, but not apps....
it seems that the "fring" process is running even if the autostart is deactivated and no inscance of the app is actually running.
also "saymyname" which i use to recieve calls.
if it helps i can list all of the running processes here. maybe there is a programm that is know for such issues.
thanks for your help in advance!
Yes. That sounds like partial wake-lock. (Teilwachzustand)
I didn't like Fring since it seemed to run constantly. Try uninstalling it temporarily and see if that helps. I don't know about saymyname, but why not give it a try with it uninstalled and see. If it helps, my partial wakelock usage is probably nearer 5%/10% on Android System, and that was with some pretty heavy usage and running stuff in the background. Normally it's a bit less for me.
HTH
Thanks for the Reply!
i've uninstalled taskpanel and removed my taskkiller app from the desktop and it seemes that the problem is solved 5-10% usage. (i use the taskkiller part from astro filemanager now)
I'm happy that the problem is solved.... (a pity though, because taskpanel really did make the handling very smoothly...)
My HD2 is rebooting daily at 11:30.
I do not know why. Can this be configured somehow ?
Is there a kind of scheduled task ?
I do not have any idea.
It could be configured but I cant see how you could have set it to do that and not remember......
is it always at 11.30?
check all settings in any scheduling type apps you might have installed....
yes, always at 11:30.
I even do not have an idea, what application can be configured to restart ever day at 11:30.
Is your HD2 brought second hand/a pass down? There's surely an app initiating a scheduled reset such as AutoReset. Check your apps in the Start Menu/Remove programs for an app that performs scheduled resets! If in doubt, check your \windows\startup folder!
have you installed and tinkered with CHT Scheduler?
The HD2 is a new one, with Vodafone branding.
Check the autostart folder, did not see anything special.
could be, but deinstalled it. How can I validate that ?
Somewhere in the registry ?
Believe I found it.
Exported the registry and searched for the string 11:30.
Found a Schedule below services call dald. Not sure what that means.
Deleted the schedule, will see what happens tomorrow.
BTW, did a Hardware reset, and did not put in any time like 11:30 (the entry survived).
I know there are a few threads related to this issue, but I don't feel that my situation fits into any of the ones discussed.
So after I flashed to the KE2 firmware for O2 phones (mine was PAYG), I started getting 'android.process.acore has stopped working unexpectedly' whenever I clicked on the 'history' tab of a contact. This is the only instance I've ever experienced that specific force close, and I can only reproduce it if I click on the history tab.
My phone is rooted, with typical root-related programs such as RootExplorer, Titanium Backup, JuiceDefender Ultimate, Lookout Security, AdFree. I'm running Touchwiz without any substantial modifications aside from some normal widgets.
I have frozen a few programs using Titanium Backup, but these were all from a list of supposedly 'safe to remove' programs listed here: http://samsunggalaxysforums.com/showthread.php/4811-Safe-to-remove-applications-list
I've already done flashed firmwares 2-3 times and factory reset my phone once due to a reboot loop. Everything else seems to be running perfectly.
Does anyone know what may be causing this, for example a system file I shouldn't have frozen etc? This isn't a huge problem at the moment since I don't really use the history tab at all, but I'm afraid this might have bigger repercussions if I don't figure out what is wrong with my phone.
Factory reset or reflash normal method of fixing .

I found out what was wrong.
I had frozen a service called 'LogsProvider 1.0' using Titanium Backup. Defrosting it solved the problem, and I no longer have any force closes.
I'd therefore like to reiterate that freezing LogsProvider 1.0 will cause force closes if you attempt to view the History tab of your contacts (and possibly other unconfirmed actions).
Thanks for the suggestion anyway, jje.
I have an HTC Desire Z, and it's been acting strangely lately. I hear it play the startup sound when it's in my pocket, meaning the phone has crashed when I wasn't even doing anything. I suppose it's time for a hard reset. I'm very reluctant to do this, but when I missed an important call the other day because my "com.htc.phone" (or whatever) application crashed and I didn't notice, that was the last straw.
What is a checklist of things I should do before hard resetting? So far, I've:
1) Backed up SMS
2) Taken screenshots of all my home screens so as to put the icons back in the same place
3) Taken screenshots of the application settings screens so as to install all the same applications again
4) Taken screenshots of some of the other settings screens, so as to use the same ringtone, background, SMS beep, etc.
What are some other steps I should take? I'm scared that I won't get my phone set up the same way again. My phone is great right now, it's just how I like it - except for the crashes.
Is your phone rooted? If so, TitaniumBackup (TB) would be all you need. You can get TitaniumBackup, free and paid, from the market. TB can backup your screen settings according to the launcher apps. For example, I use Go Launcher and when I do a full backup of Go Launcher, it will backup icons positions and everything else that I have changed in Go Launcher.
It may not be necessary to reset your whole device if your just getting one or two processes force closing themselves. The first thing to check is see if you have installed an app that might be conflicting with system apps (try and remember the last time it was working correctly and uninstall apps that you've installed since then).
If this isn't the issue you can also try to wipe app data/cache for the app in question. I hope this makes sense

Well, I'm not really sure what's causing the problem. My phone came installed with crapware, and lately I've found software installing itself on my phone without my knowledge. I know for a fact the "QQ Security" crapware the phone came with did indeed prevent my phone from functioning correctly.
Hello there! I have been having a bit of a problem lately. I own a BLU Dash 5.0 simunlocked from factory. It's a double sim model, which I have two sims, since the companies are spanish, let's call them Green Sim and Blue Sim (since that's how they are color coded in my status bar). It is also running Android Jelly Bean 4.2. Here is the problem. Ever since of March 20, a Chinese app appeared on my home screen, I don't know how, something called "Mobile Video" but the content was in a foreign Asian language. I suspect of my friend since I lent it to him for 15 minutes and then it appeared. Aside of this, the wifi and the Green Sim 3G was turned on.
I clicked on the app curious of it was something my friend downloaded from me, but then the app prompted me two options, I didn't know what it said since again, it was Asian. Next, I proceeded to uninstall it, going to my apps list, I was surprised to see another mysterious app, "Push_Down", that was the name. I uninstalled both Mobile Video and Push_Down. I thought I fixed the problem. Wrong.
Next day when I woke up, I found two new apps on my homescreen, and again, the Wifi and Green Sim 3G was on.These were Chinese also. I uninstalled them both and found once again "Push_Down" in my apps. After I uninstalled them, I thought the problem was finally fixed. Wrong again. Since this event, about every 2 or 3 hours, my Wifi and Green Sim 3G turn on automatically, but haven't downloaded anything new, one, because I have no credit left, and two, I have no internet at home. Ever since, daily I wake up, the same problem, the Wifi and 3G are on. I checked my SD Card, I checked my Phone Storage, both with 2 Antivirus (Avast!, and Lookout Mobile) and with Addons Detector. Surprisingly, nothing has appeared.
My last option is what hurts me most, to reset my phone, which I don't want to do since I have lots of apps installed, progress made with certain games and etc, etc. Also, I am not a root user, so I haven't rooted and won't root my phone.
Now, can anyone please help me? I am very annoyed at this happening everyday!
same problem...cheinese apps keep reinstalling
I too have had this problem for a few weeks now. Got a Chinese smartphone for Christmas (ok i know thats the first mistake, but it was worth a try for the money). mfaction royale mp720 (mpie comes up on the startup screen). Anyway i realised there where a few Chinese apps that came with it (pinyin and a app with a orange icon with a squirrel logo on it) so i unistalled these without problem. One chinese app i couldn't uninstall so i disabled it in the app settings
Everything had been working fine without problem and had been very happy with the phone until a week or so ago. started getting the apps described above installing. These include 'push_down' 'push_collect' 'filegogo' 'mobile video' and some others with chinese writing on them. I also get my phone setting itself to mute when these apps reappear. Keep uninstalling them but they keep coming back. Have tried AVG and Antimalware but they only flag things up as they install themselves, not the thing thats doing the installing. I thought that google account might be a problem so changed password and reset my phone to factory default. As a test i didn't connect back to google account. No joy. Although some apps have not reappeared some have and this morning a new one so i don't think its google account.
I did read some Chinese phones can have the malware embedded into the firmware but it's been fine for months. Perhaps there is a delay so your not likely to send the phone back then the malware begins. If this is the case then the only way round would be to root the phone then find the app or apps that are doing this. Not sure if it's easy to root one of these phones.
Anyone else had these symptoms after a full factory reset?. Anyone been able to sort it out? Anyone know of a guide to root his phone?
Hmmmmm....

Actually, as much as my experience from rooting, I haven't done it once again after a bad event I had, like almost bricking an old phone I had which for my good luck there was a way to restore it Ever since, I won't root anymore unless there exists a ROM backup by the manufacturer. But still, I don't know what's causing this. My phone has been fine since stock, I have more than 2 months with it! The problem started since last Thursday, which is why I suspect it's an app I downloaded or ad I clicked on. Any ideas?
(Also, thanks for your reply )
