This morning I wake up, and connect GPRS on my phone to check emails as usual. Except this time, when it connects, my phone vibrates for a few seconds (even when it is not muted/vibrate mode) and the LED flashes red (until next soft reset). WTF!?!? I did nothing to it.....
Any ideas as to what is going on? Problem in registry?
These Pocket PC Phones from HTC are driving me crazy, when will Dell start making Phones?!
PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP!
.......anybody?
Are you sure that you or someone else has not changed
Start->Settings->Sounds & Notifications->Notifications
Connection Established or
Messaging:New Email Message
to vibrate and flash LED
Hi
I checked these settings, and NONE of them were enabled.
So, just thinking I might get lucky, I enabled them, reset, and then disabled them.....It works fine now.
Is there any application that might have done this? I hadn't installed any recently though.
Thanks for your help
Something like that happened to my olde XDA2 a few times before.
I'd get an SMS, or some 'event' would happen and it wouldn't stop vibrating. Wouldn't necessarily crash. Just wouldn't stop vibrating till reset.
I suppose it's some event that gets triggered wrongly, or (in my case), the "stop vibrate" co,mand gets lost along the way.. Harmless. Unless it's not..
:lol:

OKay, so I have had My Tmo(USA) MDA (HTC wizard) forapproximately 13 days. Today while trying to transfer a ringtone from my old phone via bluetooth, my phone restarted and stalled during the booting. I soft-reset the device and the same thing happened, and again a third time. After which I decided to bite the bullet and do a hard-reset. After the reset the phone goes even less into the boot screen (the rainbow icon does not appear like it did before) then the screen goes dim and the device shuts off. I have called tech support at tmo to no avail, I have also tried going into bootloader mode with no response. the battery was at 60% when this started so i know this isn't a power issue.
any thoughts, input or help on this matter will be greatly appreciated.
my safegaurd is to exchange the phone tomorrow, but this is a last resort.
EXCHANGE IT! Dont wait till its too late. Just get a new one. You weren't even doing anything that would normally cause this type of result. You have nothing to loose by exchanging it, other than a little time, any data on the phone is gone anyways.
You sure you did a hard reset? I don't mean to be a jerk, and I'm not saying you don't know what your doing I am simply suggesting that you double check. Make sure you get to the black "press send to format storage, any other key to exit" and press "SEND" =)
Hope you get back up and running soon; Lew
Swap it. You weren't doing anything that could have led to YOU "bricking" it.
I've done the upgrade by few days, and i've discovered this strange behaviours (don't know if they are already known):
-When i remove and put again the battery on the boot i see
R none
G none
D 5.xxxxx
so radio is disabled,
doing a soft reset repair the situation.
-Occasionally when i turn on flight mode, the phone goes off, and after few seconds it returns on automatically. Sometimes instead, the phone goes off, but the right green led continues to blink.
-When sound is off or volume is 0, and i receive a flash sms message (i've not tested with other events) the event sound play anyway (very annoying).
I have seen the first two problems (I'm using Antz ROM at the moment). I think they are both related...it's as though the ohone itself is crashing and WM5 cannot talk to it, which would explain the lack of driver version numbers on the reset. I had both after messing around with flight mode. It took a power down, wait 15 sec, then soft-reset to get me going.
I suspect it may be something to do with activating flightmode while wireless is on, but that is a complete guess.

Mmm, i think not, because i've discovered while wireless was off.
However i think that the worst problem is the sound playing when volume is 0...
Check those two:

I am using the 'standard' WM5 version, and this 'radio none' thing happens to me too when I remove the battery, so I guess it's WM5 related...
anyway soft resetting again works for me too
Anybody expereinced this problem with Kaiser?
My vibration alert sometimes (many times actually) did not stop until I manually press the power on/off button. I have set vibration on when I receive new email messages, etc. When a new email message came in, the device just kept vibrating (I can only stop it by pressing the power button). When it was working properly, it would emit just 3 intermittent vibrations instead of a long one.
Any advice on how to resolve this? Thanks.
I get same effect with push e-mail. After three or four e-mails it goes into infinite vibration and will not stop until I acknowledge that e-mail. Please, any suggestions really appreciated.
Yes, that's similar to what I have encountered. Anybody has any advice please?
Lol, sorry to laugh, but it reminded me of something that constantly vibrates
Any solutions for this? I have the same issue.
I've found that when the phone is on non-vibrate option but volume is turned down to min, the phone continually vibrates!
When in normal vibrate-only mode, it does the usual 3 buzzes!!!
Try it and see
I encountered the same issue with the Tilt.
Tilt Won't Stop Vibrating!!
Has anyone found a solution for this? As mail is pushed through, my tilt vibrates continuously until I hit the power button. This happens several times every day (and needless to say, it is very annoying).
Seems not much advices from the guru here .... or maybe this problem only happened to just a few of us?
For me, I still can't figure out the pattern. It just happened spontaneously so I can't really pinpoint at a specific fault or something. But I would be very interested to find out how come this problem is only bugging a few of us here .... hmmmm ...
I changed my settings when new email message received to non vibrate mode.
I'm also having this problem intermittently and it is very annoying. Please help on this one.
I am also having this issue but can't seem to track it down to a single set of circumstances.
I have the same thing - when volume is not set to mute and vibrate is on, it vibrates normally. When the volume is muted, sometimes, but not always, it vibrates continuously. I haven't found any kind of solution yet...
I have the Tilt with stock AT&T ROM.

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 ...
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
