Hey guys
So my 1,5yo atrix started giving me trouble about 2 months ago. After i talk on phone, i take the atrix from my ear to end the call, and the touch doesnt respond. Instead it gives erratic commands to the system, windows popping up, or just doesnt do anything. If i use power button to close screen and to open again, it works again perfectly.
First thought i had was that i had some Raindrop issues, from sweat. But it doesnt seem to be that, ive wiped it and still wont work until i push power button. Used the fix, no go. Also, i think i was sweating for 1 year before that too, right? )
Ive tried switching roms, tried few cm7, also some blur, same issue
Any thoughts what could be causing it?
Thank you very much

I noticed earlier today my phone kept freezing.
the phone HAS been freezing on me recently, at least once an hour
but now every 3 minutes it freezes or resets itself. I have missed a LOT of calls and ttext messages etc.
today has been a disaster. i havent even synced my numbers and contacts. what should I do?
if you haven't installed anything new or tweaked just before the problem started:
as usual - backup and hard reset...
There is a free program called "pim backup" that will backup all your contacts, messages and call log. Then you can do a hard reset.
my phone freezes before I can even back up anything. its the worst
now it seems like if my phone is plugged in and charging, it gives no problem, but as soon as I unplug it, frozen.
im going to try to find PIM backup to see what that can do
wow now I have a bigger problem now. my phone fell and the transcriber cracked so only part of the screen works with touch BUT that was before I hard reset the phone and now the screen align is appearing but I cant touch all of the targets
is there a way to bypass this?
When its at the align screen you can plug it into computer and connect with active sync. Delete the Welcome shortcut from Windows/startup and soft reset. That should skip the alignment. Sorry to hear about the phone. I have a couple moguls if interested PM me about it.
I am having the same issue he was before he cracked his screen up.
I get freezing whenever the phone goes into standby and it will only restart with 2 hits of the reset button. Also it is a coinflip as to whether it will actually start up fully or just keep soft reseting for an extended period without ever loading up fully.
Anyone have any incite or ideas. I am running a ppckitchen vs of windows mobile 6.5 now. It is a kitchen version with few added programs. However I also experienced something similar to this issue with Titan Reloaded 1.3.4 as well but it stopped so I never bothered looking into it. Now this problem occurs about 10-15 times per day and it is frustrating. I am out of warranty and cant send my phone in because I replaced the housing myself.
Thanks
Dave
Also, I have US Cellular if you need to know that.
Thanks

I had the same problem kind of. Out of nowhere mine would lockup or freeze randomly. Usually after being in my pocket, after hitting all the buttons or squeezing it, it would work again (sometimes but usually after numerou reboots) but then lockup shortly after or flipping the case open and closed. Finally took the case off my phone and blew inside it today put it back together and havent had a lock up all day (1st time since i started havin the problem). It wasnt rom related as i had the same rom for a while, tried reflashing to different kinds of roms and radios but same random lockups. Somethin musta been loose
Well, I went to take my phone apart, probably the 8th or 9th time that I've done it and I ended up ripping the cable for the screen right off. So no more HTC for me for awhile. Unless of coarse someone wants to mail me a cable for free (im broke in college and my rent is due soon.) By judging by how easily the cable ripped I would bet the crease I found right by the rip had already had a slight tear in it.
Thanks for your help.

I have the Sprint Touch Pro and have had it since it first came out. Recently I have had 2 issues pop up.
1) After a while TF3D won't open up emails or allow me to type new emails/texts. The solution is a soft reset. I find my self doing that 5-8 times a day.
2) The physical keyboard sometimes stops working. Occasionally a soft reset fixes it. Sometimes I have to reset a few times for that to start working.
My guess is that there is a Hard Reset in my near future (damn). Anyone else experiencing these issues?
I had the second issue happen to me as well as the mic not picking up sound. I took it in and apparently one of the ribbons was messed up. They replaced it free of charge for me. So I'd go into a store and tell them what's up.
what is weird is that the screen will still rotate when the keyboard slides out. Must be a different connector for that.
If they don't replace it I might hold out for the Palm Pre.
Yeah. sounds just like the problem I was having. It would come and go. What really sucked about it was that it would be working just fine and in the middle of an email stop working and I'd have to finish the email with the touch screen. that was the hardest part.
Thanks for the suggestion Notasevil, Sprint is replacing the unit. Hope I get a new one and not a refurb, but beggars can't be choosers. It'll be nice to have a clean install. Perhaps my redfly will start working with it again.
Hope everything works out for you.
*Edit
And I've noticed a few other post on other forums and heard from other people that they are having this same issue so it might be a manufacturer defect.
I have the same problem but it seems to be an issue with arcsoft. The program freezes the whole phone for about 2 mins. Then the keyboard comes back once the messages sync up properly. Its really starting to piss me off because its to the point its just faster to soft reset and I'm doing it 3-5 times a day now.
ive had problems with the email too...i got my touch pro in december..so it doesnt affect just the older ones..
Hi,
I've just joined after getting linked to this site. Seems like a huge site with plenty of info but unfortunately after a few searches I haven't been able to figure out my problem.
I recently followed a guide on here for replacing the digitizer on my xperia x10 and I followed it to the letter. After re-assembling the phone it refuses to switch on and there is no response when I connect the charger.
A little history.....
The problem started when I dropped the phone in water. I know I have been told that it would never be right again etc etc but I did everything I could to dry the phone and for a couple of months after the incident the phone would switch on and display perfectly and the buttons would work fine also. The only problem was that the touch wouldn't work rendering the phone useless as I couldn't even unlock the screen.
Anyway, every now and again I would switch the phone on again to cHeck if it had made a miraculous recovery but no joy. After asking some questions I decided to replace the screen/digitizer. I remember the last time I tried switching the phone on a few days before taking it apart it wouldn't switch on. It simply gave out a few flashes from the LED. I put this down to the battery being dead and carried on replacing the digitizer.
The only response I get from the phone now is when the charger is connected to my laptop and I remove the battery, the LED gives out a red flash every 2-3 seconds. Although this doesn't happen all the time. Most of the time I get nothing at all. I must add that I did charge the phone at least once or twice successfully after the water incedent so something else must be causing this.
I have heard of issue with these phones not charging but I don't see why this would happen to mine if it wasn't even being used. The phone was only a month or two old when damaged.
Sorry for the long winded introduction and if anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate hearing them.
Thanks,
Gav.
anyone had any similar problems to this before?
I know this is an old thread, BUT my X10 won't switch on either now :/ not dropped it ever and ive never got it wet, i turned it off due to it being laggy and unresponsive and now it won't turn on :/ no ROM's not rooted just stock anyone have a fix ? and no i have tried putting it in the computer for the SEUS to fix it but nothing unresponsive
I have recently (the last 3 days) started experiencing some really strange Twilight Zone type stuff with my phone. It originaly started when my phone suddenly went into "Driving Mode". My phone's screen now switches on for no reason and stays on indefinitely. If I switch the screen off with a quick press off the side power button - the screen then stays off - like it's shutdown. Nothing I press or do can bring it back on again. Requiring me to battery pull - and then the whole process restarts. It's very intermittent and doesn't seem to be related to any particular app.
Once my phone is back on, the battery has dropped considerably (screenshots attached). I've been Running Cognition S2 1.51 for a few months now without any hassles.
The phone initially struggled to connect to any of the Samsung chargers I have - it appears to charge now, but connecting to the PC doesn't initiate the MTP app anymore and only charges. This is my baby and I'm really concerned there's a massive hardware prob. Just not sure how it came about as I didn't do anything different from what I've done in the last few months. Any help would be massively appreciated as I'm now using my old wave and it's just not the same as my SGS2 - like being back in the dark ages.
I've reflashed a nan-backup from before the problem started and it still does the above. Is it my Ram? My CPU?...
Please let me know if there is any other info that may help you- help me.
I've started to have the same problem a few days ago too, randomly my phone will enter driving mode and voice recognition keeps coming up randomly too. I have also been getting weird USB messages saying that things are connected when they aren't.

Well I cleaned the inside of my phones Micro-USB port with a new dry clean toothbrush (asd mentioned in a forum somewhere) and that seems to have sorted out the non-connecting issues. You may want to try that... Though I'm still having huge problems with the screen turning on by itself and staying on indefinitely - and the phone blacking out shortly after. Give the toothbrush cleaning thang a go - could solve your problem.

Have you found a solution to this as yet? I've tried absolutely everything I can find, in all available forums; with no success.
Anyone?
have same problems :x
YOU IZ NOT ALONE!!!!
My issue has been happening for awhile but its gotten a lot worse lately.
My screen, when on, will randomly start "touching" places. When this happens, it appears as if a phantom finger is pressing various things and it is causing a lot of issues. Also when this happens, the 4 buttons on the bottom stop responding. i have to use the power switch to turn the screen off and then back on again.
any thoughts on how I might be able to fix this?

Are you rooted/flashed a rom? If you are you should definitely wipe everything a few times and flash a new rom. If you aren't I would perform a factory reset.

It has happened across multiple roms. I will try again though.
If nothing else works, try SGS Screen Booster. My Rez has been having the same problem recently, and it's seemed to help quite a bit.
The right below the status bar, there seems to be a gap with what is and what isn't working properly, so I set everything to the max and lowered the response time to be as quick as possible.

Happens to me also. Do you have a screen protector maybe? That is what I always thought my problem was.
Certain chargers or USB cords with grounding issues can cause these problems. Does it only happen when it's plugged in?
I had one were it would cause the same issue when plugged into the laptop, but only while the laptop was plugged into the wall.

The title of this thread would have me more excited if "rezound" was a young hot female.
sorry for the absence.
it happens I'd the phone is plugged in or not.
no screen protector or case on the phone either.
I have done a full wipe multiple times now and different roms as well.

Eh, mine does this as well. It's been happening more often in the colder weather I get into. So I just turn off the screen and let it sit in my pocket for a minute so the screen can warm up, and then it works. I swear, these Asurion replacements suck.
I'm having the same issues with my Rezound. I also have a lot of issues with the soft keys not working now ( Far more often than the random screen touch issue ). They won't respond at all or they will start randomly start clicking. I also notice that when they stop responding usually I can put the phone to sleep, then wake it back up right away and they will start working about 10-15 seconds later. Even when they are working I often have to hit them multiple times before it takes. This happened with the stock rom. It started happening shortly after I received the most recent OTA update, however I assume that is simply a coincidence and nothing to do with the update. I flashed the phone recently with CM10 hoping it was an issue with the ROM itself but the problem persists. This is a shame too because other than the screen issue it seems that CM10 would have given the phone a new life as it looks and runs so smooth on the hardware. I highly doubt I will ever buy an HTC again, we have had two of them and they both start having hardware issues much faster than they should for what they cost.
Im using the unofficial cm10.1 build with no mods. i went through and wiped everything twice. cache, system, boot, battery settings, rotation settings. i flashed the latest at the time (build from 4/3/13) and now my phone is working properly again. no more hanging up on people caue it preses by itself, no more emergency dialing.
hope that helps anyone who might have the same issue.
