XDA IIs will not power on (unless I hard reset) - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hello everyone,
I seem to have a problem which it doesn't appear that anyone else has had before.
The end result is that I have a PDA which works fine until I press the power button to turn it off. If I turn it straight back on, then it's ok, but if I leave it turned off for more than a minute or so, then it won't turn back on. The only sign of life is a flashing green LED.
Once this has happened, a soft-reset will just hang up, so my only course of action is a hard reset - this gets things going again - at least until the next time my PDA powers off! Since I can't keep my XDA turned on 24 hours a day, this is a bit of a problem. :?
This has only started happing since I upgraded my PDA to the latest ROM version.
Basically, I was having problems with Bluetooth on my XDA IIs, so I tried applying the bluetooth patch to my XDA to start with. This didn't seem to help so I went with the latest I-Mate ROM version. The upgrade process seemed to all go to plan, until I turned my PDA off - that's when I noticed that I couldn't turn it back on.
I've even tried re-flashing back to the ROM I had on my XDA before, but I still get the same problem whenever my PDA is powered off.
(Strangely, if my XDA is charging, I can leave it turned off for any amount of time without getting the problem)
Basically I'm left with a completely useless XDA.
Please help!
Cheers,
Steve

Please can somebody help?
Is there anything else I can change in the ROM to ensure that I'm definately putting my XDA back to a totally default configuration when?

what did you do *before* your diamond stopped turning on?? unless you had a completely unpredicted system meltdown of your diamond for injecting it with super high voltage. it is rare for it to not power off unless you did something ... so please elaborate so we can assist better.
Ok, yesterday i use the phone like anothe normal day, in the night i turn off the phone, and in the morning, when i tried to turn on, i have this problem, for example, when a tried to do a soft, hard reset, the screen is in black, when a conect the phone to the usb the screen is black, is, i left the phone alone, in 3 minutes the black screen again, i don´t know why.
any LED activity when plugged into USB?
I think it is a major manufacture problem
I had the same problem, taking out the battery waiting a while and inserting it back, will solve the problem for some time but it will happen again.
Finally I sent it to the HTC support center.
I don't understand why HTC didn't recall.
If you'll search this forum you'll see the same problem in different stages, some times it's a blank screen but the phone will ring and some are just freeze.
Hi, I've had my Diamond for about a month soon and it started earlier this week by not wanting to come on at all. Been taking out the battery for a few days but eventually got fed up and did a hardware reset tonight. Not long after that it just suddenly turned itself off and I couldn't get it back on again. I thought I'd pack it back into the box it came in and send it back tomorrow and took out the sim card. After that it came to life again.
Happened to get a call after that and that call was suddenly disconnected without any reason.
So I am not very happy with this phone at the moment. Would appreciate any advice or if you know for sure it can't be sorted maybe I should send it back and ask for another one?

Nothing, but one time the pc detect the phone, but later nothing.
No Led activity either on mine when it went dead.
When the Phone goes dead, try cooling the phone down as much as possible, and try starting it up again.....
There is a problem with the HTC Diamond in that it can cook itself (excessive heat), due to the auto over temp function crashing and not switching off the phone..... (That's what I have been told at least...)
I know over around 5 Diamonds so far that have had this issue, where the symptoms slowly get worse...
Have a look at this thread....

PLEASE P.M. me if you have any of the symptoms described in the thread...
I have been TRYING to get my Diamond fixed under warranty now for 2 months with little success... And I kinda need to know how wide spread this problem is to proceed any further.
could not turn on after blank screen ...
Hello,
I've had the same issue as rmorera, and after I hard reseted the phone all went o.k.. BUT after I reinstalled part of the small apps I use, the phone started to go off again. So, the problem seems to be in the software ...
I believe the cause might be the SRS WOW which I use. I installed the .cab, then the .reg file provided (ufortunatelly I don't remember from which thread I got the files ...). And shortly after, the phone stopped working. I uninstalled the software, and now it works! Could it be that the SRS WoW did this?
I tried to reinstall the SRS WoW and I found that if enabled for "Internal (Stereo)" instead of "Headphones" it gets my phone shut when the WM blanks the screen. If I select the "Headphones" options the issue seems to disappear.
Still, the SRS WoW damages the volume buttons action, but I think this issue is on another thread ...

All hardware buttons suddenly stopped working!

I hope someone can help me with this, i went to bed last night and all i did was use opera and check my emails. I then pressed the top standby button to turn the screen off and went to sleep.
This morning i woke up and found i could not turn the screen back on. The home hardware button was lit up and nothing else was happening. Tried every button on it but the phone wouldn't wake up.
All I've done to the phone is hardSPL and have been running the Extreme topaz rom for the past 2 weeks happily.
I reset the rom to stock and no joy. I then did a hard reset and now its acting even weirder! After turning on, the screen is flicking between the phone dialing screen and the quick list screen constantly by itself!
Does anyone have any ideas? Its less than 3 weeks old!
So I've reflashed to stock rom and used the HARD SPL relocker and the phone is now only semi-broken. The rest of the hardware buttons are now working, but the power button at the top of the device may as well be dead. It has completely stopped working. it won't wake the device or turn off the device
This is a major bummer because the phone automatically turns the screen off after a minute and the only way I can get it back is to remove and put the battery back in. Looks like real bad luck for me. Back to warranty for repairs
Shortest time ever for a device to fail on me. Grrr.

Kaiser turning off autolatically in 10s

hello, i have got a problem with my kaiser, it is tuning off (entering in standby) in 10 s no matter the config than i make
thanks a lot
Oddly enough, I'm having exactly the same problem.
No matter what is running, even apps that are supposed to keep the device from entering sleep (like TomTom, etc.), it always enters sleep after about 10 seconds. What's weird too, is that if I press any physical button on the phone, it resumes from "Sleep" instead of having to push only the power button like you would normally do.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, I have a "AT&T Tilt" Kaiser, and am running a 6.5 rom w/ the eMobile radio.
Hello bro
i found a semi-solution hehehe
starting de audio manager and let it play a part of a music, after that it dont solve all problem but reduce it, some times the kaiser turn off after 2 min as the setting, some times it turn off in 10s
the most strange thing is than the pda never have this problem until today in morning
my rom is a pda-corner wm6,1
thanks
Don't know if it the same problem...
Hi guys got a kaiser bout a month ago and i love the phone haven't done any modifications to it all stock at&t stuff. Having a pretty unpleasant problem... when i go to turn on the phone the at&t logo pops up and then after a couple of seconds turns off, the battery is charged! I seem to be able to turn it on if i open the sim card door and leave it open till the WM6.1 logo appears, but then when i turn it off to put in sim card it turns off in seconds and does not come on. Now when it does happen to stay on for me after its been asleep for a while the touch screen stops working...
all stock kaiser
have done may hard and soft resets nothing seems to be working
don't have sync software
willing to do anything
HELP!!!
maybe you can put a modificated rom, my sotck phone come with wi-fi, internet and e-mail blocked. i put a modificated rom and it unlock all features. its just a try, but dont forget to read all the wiki about the replacement of the rom or you can brick you phone
good luck
i'm also looking for how to change this as tomtom on the move in the car is useless when the phone locks

Diamond reboot loop w. original ROM

hi there,
this morning, without any interactiom, i heard the vibration of my touch diamond restarting.(with original newest ROM from htc website that ran without any problem for several months). battery was about 80% yesterday evening.
but it wasn´t starting at all. after the HTC animation and the green windows mobile screen, it started again. after restarting for 20 minutes i took out the battery, put it in again and performed a hard reset as stated in the manual.
now, on the "rainbow" screen i get a message like
psoc diam stage_pvt 0x32
then i did the Volume-Up reset, and now i don´t even get the red version information in the lower right screen. as it doesn´t even start i cannot get an active sync connection.
any ideas? is my phone broken? i didn´t do anything special, and i wonder why it rebooted without interaction this morning.
any ideas what i can do?
thanks in advance,
jkersch
Mine started doing this about 2 weeks ago it woke me up in the middle of night while sleeping with its vibrator and start sound.
The only thing I have found is that my little reset button at the pen holder dosent work anymore. To do a hard reset i have to takeout the battery and then put it in, hold the volume key and enter key then power it to get it. Flashed by holding volume down and the power on, it hold for about 10min just enough to get the flash.
I managed to flash it once but it dosent help, it constantly reset at the thouch diamond screen. Some times i get to the green windows mobile screen.
As warrenty is out on my phone and ive given up and using another phone.
Same problem in a different thread
Have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5279740.

"Phone" and "Wi-fi" problem

hello xda
ive been reading these forums for a while checking out tweaks, software and other stuff, good stuff
but last night, when I wanted to check out my email, i turned on the wifi but after a few seconds, the wifi slider would go back to "off", i did a reboot and the problem persisted. meanwhile i noticed the "phone" was off too, so i tried enabling that too, no luck, same thing.
and something else too, after like 3-5mins of using it, the touchscreen crashes and i cant use it anymore, only buttons will work.
today i decided to do a hard reset, but that didnt fix anything. when i go to "communications" panel, everything is "off" except Bluetooth.
-if i turn that off, airplane mode goes on
-if i click phone on, it goes off after like 5 seconds, same with wifi
has anyone else experienced something like this ?
thanks in advance,
xerron
