Titan hangs with black screen - HTC Titan

Dear reader,
I got a problem with my Titan for a couple of weeks now.
A couple of times a day when I grab my Titan and want to use it -> get it out of standby, it doesn't reacts to any input/buttons etc. just nothing. No feedback from capacitive buttons. Only way is to remove battery, insert it again and boot it up. But this occurs 20 times a day. I doesn't happen all the time though. But it is very frustrating.
It started after using the DFT rom for a couple of weeks. I hard resetted it, still same problem. Then I flashed the Dynamics7 rom, still same problem. So I start to believe that it's something hardware related, or maybe the following thing;
Though some other strange thing is that every time I hard resetted my device or flashed an other rom, and then installed the Facebook app, the FB app works fine, untill the first time my phone has the above mentioned strange bug. So after I restarted my phone, the FB app crashes while starting. And never works again... (FB app version 2.7.0.0)
Anyone with the same problem or suggestions?
Any help will be appriciated.
Thanks in advance,
Lars

It seems it has something to do with my mobile network or simcard or something. when in flightmode and using wifi it hasn't happend anymore fore some time now...

Well, I ordered a new simcard, in the hope that the problem would be solved.. But it has no effect. Tried 3 different roms, DFT, Dynamics7 and currently the standerd rom. All three, same problem.
As the problem becomes more frequent the last days, it also happens while calling, or other use of the phone, and not only when the device is locked...
Anyone with some suggestions?

Have you tried not installing any apps at all? Just running fresh?
Try not syncing your hotmail account either. Just let it run as a solo phone.
Also, while you factory reset what will be worth looking into is, having data connection switched off. Only using 2G.
I have had exactly same problem with my old Nokia E63. I never got around the issue. It was one specific operator (Vectone, UK) and every other company's SIM worked without causing issues. Maybe worth testing some other network provider's SIM from your friend?

well I found the problem. It's the Facebook app (not the integrated one).
Uninstalled it, problem solved. Installed it again, problem is back.

Data connection problems

Hey guys.
Tonight has been a very frustrating night overall.
I'll write my current problem here, so that those who can help can reply right away, below you can find a summary of the nights problems.
I can't get mobile data to work. It says its on if I go into settings, but I get no connection. If I add the widget in motoblur and try to toggle it, it says "Mobile Data is unavailable", and nothing else. Any solutions..? I have rebooted phone several times, as well as removed SIM card and put it back.
Long story:
I uninstalled Launcher7 today since I wanted to use something more "regular" before the release of the european ICS. After uninstalling it and fiddling around with Moto Home Fix to get the phone to even recognize that I have a default launcher, it got stuck in airplane mode. There was just no getting it out of it. Eventually I got so pissed of I just factory reset the phone. Now I have normal radio, and Wifi, but no Data connection. The error it gives is "Mobile data is unavailable" when I try to widget-toggle it.
If I go the long way in settings it says its on. Do I need to do something in the first time setup before it starts working? Its been so long I dont remember. I have registered my google account.
Please guys, help!
Do you have Verizon? I know in the Play store there is an app by Verizon to fix mobile data connection problems.

No, I have Tele2/Comviq, a Scandinavian operator.
However it seems that when I uninstalled the launcher it also cleared all my APN-settings. Which was.. A whole bunch that I manually entered. Oh well, guess that servers me right for not keeping a backup.
Will report this to the Launcher7 author, even though I doubt he'll do anything since its been a long time since last update.

Any progress with that "loosing connection to google services" problem?

Ever since I got my first Android device (Galaxy Nexus) I had the problem that Gmail and Google Talk just often won't notify me about new messages. It works fine sometimes but often there is a delay between a few seconds and several hours until it finally notifies me (if at all that is).
It's basically freaking useless. I just can't rely on it so I end up checking for messages and mail manually every few minutes.
Things that don't affect the problem:
Device and Android Version. Plenty of people reported this problem and it's just not limited to one device or version.
If the screen is turned off or not. It even stops working while Talk is open (not in the background).
How the phone connects to the internet. At home it's using the same connection as my PC, while it just won't notify me of an new e-mail the Talk client on the PC manages it without problems.
ROM/Kernel don't seem matter either. Also did plenty of factory resets.
All I can find are old and/or unanswered threads.
Like those:

I'd have ditched Android by now if there would be a good alternative. But it's either Android, iOS or Windows Phone...
Sign out of google talk and gmail.do a battery pull, then a factory reset, then try again.

my advice. backup what you need(ie. text messages) and just clear data, revert to stock image

I don't really get how this could help. Don't feel like doing yet another reset unless it could really have an effect.

ROM and Kernel don't seem to matter. That includes for example stock, Cyanogen and franco kernel.
Did a factory reset like 100 times before, just this time logged out first. Didn't help, how unexpected.
Another option, contact sprint, have them do a. Profile refresh. Also update ur prl twice. Now that I think about, it could be a slight network issue in connection with ur device (hard to explain)

I'm in Europe. No sprint here.
I'll replace my Nexus with an S III today. Guess I'm about to find out if it's affected too.
Will probably be hard to do any further tests with the Nexus because my SIM is going to have a little meeting with a scissor.
Didn't get too many messages yet but some of them were definitely several minutes late. Guess the S III is affected too. Just great.
Am I the only person with this problem?
Still happening and renders the phone mostly useless.
At least some ideas on how to pinpoint the problem?

[Q] Google Play is not working.

Hello there, I currently encounter a very annoying problem with Google Play, of which solution is nowhere to be found:
1. Using stock ROM, Google Play becomes extremely slow and most of the time not working at all (Network error), while other applications still work well.
2. Everytime I factory reset, it works for about 5 minutes at reasonable speed, then the same problem occurs again.
3. Tried to reverse back to 4.1.1 but nothing changes.
4. Same problem with different WIFI networks and 3G.
5. Jelly Bam (haven't tried other ROMs yet but I believe they would) fixed the problem completely, but its lack of Samsung Apps and other amazing features (like Smart Stay, S Voice, S Note, ...) quickly made me reverse to stock ROM.
After trying every trick found on the internet (reinstall Google Play, clear the cache,...) with no success, and after two days struggling I am now completely exhausted defeated. My only hope is you guys who have had this problem before could help me fix it.
Thanks a trillion.
I recently had a lot of problem signing in, it turned out for some reason my WiFi and phone didn't want to play game with wpa2 but after changing router to just wpa and resetting all working again, I've seen intermittent reports along similar lines sporadically ever since s3 release
Did you try using proxies?

No, because I haven't got the faintest idea about that kind of gobbledegook as you well know

Yes, I did, soneone suggested 0.0.0.0:8080 but that blocks internet connection to all other applications.
I've discovered that uninstalling Google Play updates will help, but only for 5 minutes or so. After which time the problem persists again.
Now my only solution is to uninstall Google Play updates, (then the app will ask for updating at first run), install some apps as quickly as possible before the connection goes down again. Basically I have to repeat that process every second app downloaded, and that drives me insane!!!

That's interesting but in my case even 3G won't work, and the madness is that Google Play works crazily well in custom ROMs like Jelly Bam and like sh*t in stock ROMs.

I feel the pain, took me 10 days to finally get mine working, I did everything you did multiple times, exact same scenario, uninstall updates, get a connection, next time I go back to it,bam, no connection, tried different Roms, flashed to stock, everything!
I had something similar.
What I did was adding a second Google account, deleting the first one, log in, adding the first account back, then deleting the second account, and log in again.
Works for me hoops it's working for you.

[Q] Subtle Email Failure

Please excuse me if this has been covered; I've searched for it but couldn't find it and after struggling to make this thing work for six months, I'm getting desperate!
I have a Galaxy S2 GT-I900 running Android 4.1.2, baseband version I9100XXMS2, firmware update is PDA:LSW/PHONE:MS2/CSC:LS5 (XEU)
It does everything asked of it and I'm impressed after running an XDA Orbit for some years; but there are two problems with it (apart from the dreadful KIES syncing software!):
First, whilst it will download emails on command for a while, sooner or later it simply stops; the progress indicator stops responding. I can get it to start again by removing the simcard and the battery, reinstalling and rebooting, but sometimes I have to do this three or four times a day!
Second, I think I did, once, manage to send an email, but it was a long time ago........might be mistaken.
I've deleted and re-entered my email account details dozens of times (all three accounts are affected simultaneously) both on my own and under the supervision of an o2 "consultant"; after months of badgering, I persuaded o2 to send me a new simcard, but the problem remains. I'm beginning to suspect that the baseband version is wrong-I read somewhere that the correct one for this phone is I900DXLSD, but not being an expert, I wouldn't be sure.
My main email account is with TalkTalk (been with them since they were lineone), it's POP3 and I have enabled data download and switched off sign-in/authentication required. I'm using smtp.o2.co.uk for outbound (as I always have, although just to be sure, I have tested it with smtp.tiscali etc without success).
I'm back with my trusty XDA now (which works fine, if a little slow!) as the Galaxy is of limited use without email; if I can't get this to work it'll have to go in the hi-tech junk drawer or be subjected to a float-test which I suspect it will fail!
Once again, if this has been covered, I couldn't find it; sorry for the long post. Anyone got any ideas?
Sounds like there might be something more fundamentally broken with your setup. But short of a fresh install of the ROM have you tried using a different email client. K-9 works quite well for me and I use it to manage 4 different imap accounts from 4 different email providers.

Looks like I fixed it!
Thanks; I finally bit the bullet and carried out a factory reset. It worked.....so far. email is "ok", although it often fails to login and sometimes says it can't because the password has changed (!). Also seems to be less than accomplished at sending email, but time will tell. Now I'm busy reinstalling my apps and sorting out my settings all over again (I'm not too keen on Samsung knowing absolutely everything about me!).

[Q] S6 restarting automatically (?)

Some days ago my S6 edge started restart automatically when it is connected to wifi. It restart several times if using a my mobile (app, calliing, etc) or not. When my S6 is connected to 4g this doesn't happen. How can I solve this problem? Hard reset? Sorry for my english. Ty!
I have that problem also but i think is not wifi related..
I think it has something to do with the update they rolled out a while ago!
I did the hard reset. The problem continues. I reinstalled almost all app's that I had before. If the problem is some app it will be difficult to know what app is causing this problem. Maybe, may the problem be caused by hardware?

No, why?
Thank you all for help. Sorry for the delay to reply, but I did the hard reset again and this time I installed individually each app to see what app was causing teh problem. Yesterday I reinstalled last app and finally the smartphone doesn't restart more connected to wifi .
However, another problem is happening :crying:. The wifi stop working. The smartphone remains connected to the modem via wifi but I can't access websites, whatsapp stops receiving and sending messages, etc. Without explanation it returns to work and minutes later stops again. If I turn off the wifi in S6 and use the 4g it works normally.
I think the problem is not on the network or modem, coz my notebook and other smartphones can connected to wifi normally.
Sorry for my english guys.
