Is it normal to get a brief white screen before the display comes on when you hit the power button to bring it from standby mode?
maybe wisbar?
I get it... i have a suspicition that it is wisbar... but i don't really have a clue
Could be, I have Wisbar Advance too, but I seem to remember the issue was still there before I installed wisbar.
dont get it
hmmm i don't get it, but i don't think i have that wishbar you are talking about

Hi guys,
I have a HTC tilt and overnight something wierd happened to it. I switched it on and its was scrolling through the home tab by itself and now thats fixed but its scrolling through all the options in the start menu when it is opened. I flashed a new rom to it, but the same problem persists. When i press the power button to send the phone into suspend mode, the screen switches back on in 2 seconds. I would really appreciate if you guys could help me out. Thanks
check if ur jog wheel on the right hand side is stucked or what. that the only thing I can think of whoich scrolls without u touching.
I have tried that, it doesnt seem to be the problem because when its scrolling and i press any other button, it stops scrolling till the phone is on. But when i put it in suspend mode and it switches back on, the same problem. I dont know what could be causing this problem.
then i think its like a circuit problem or something, cause it means that something is being pressed at all times on a board, which excites screen and scrolling . did u put it in ur pocket and sat tight or something ! j/k
and u also said that it persists even with change of rom, so I think it might be a hard ware problem !
hmm..it did fall down like a week ago, but the problem just showed up last night. Do you think i should open it up and check it out from the inside. But if something is being pressed at all times then the pressing of a button shouldnt stop the scrolling and the phone shouldnt come out of standby by itself.

okay if it is in warranty dont open it up, even if isnt in warranty,uless u know how to fix it dont open it.
okay, so in first post u said, it was scrolling on home plugin and u stopped it. can u let me know how ?
well i just played around with it a little bit, did a couple of soft resets and took out the battery put it back in, and then did a hard reset. With that it stopped scrolling on the home plugin but then i cliked the start menu and it was scrolling there, then i flashed the rom and it was scrolling through everything i opened, contacts menu options and what not. It only stopped when i pressed a button and then it was fine till i didnt put it in suspend mode. After i put it in suspend mode it switches back on with 2 sec and the same situation. When i leave the screen on, it switches after some time but the QWERT keyboard under it is always on as in you can see the lights on from the small space.
anything, anyone, i did find a temporary fix, it i went into flight mode and switched on the wireless and the bluetooth. The pda remained in suspend mode and the automatic scrolling stopped. But I need a permanent fix.
This has been the most unhelpful forum EVER....
according to what you say it appears that problem is caused by your radio (radio) rom
try different radio first
try different rom second
best wishes,,

I have tried doing that, i changed from Duttys Hybrid Rom to the HTC tytn rom and i m pretty sure that changed the radio too...But i still have the same problem. I have heard theres a fix by ATT for the tilt when it does something like this, but i cant find it.
Any Help ?
not really try the xda wiki section
i never heard of that fix but try it - you dont have much choices
good luck
I just purchased a Tilt yesterday and I'm having the exact same problem. Sorry I don't have any answers but just wanted to let you know it's not just you. I'm planning on just exchanging the phone tomorrow since obviously no one has any clue what the problem is. Anyway...good luck friend.
Pez
Hey,
Ya i have heard of these cases, apparently ATT has a fix for it, could you be kind enough to ask them for the fix. I would really appreciate it.
Thanks.
yah i have the same problem as of the past few days if anyone can find this fix let me know please.
any news anyone ?
so now my phone wont hit the down button that much ne more its just the up button now, so im beginning to think its not hardware issue
all,I am using CM 4.1.11.1 with Community Hero Theme.
I know the reason for draining my battery but I don't know how to solve it, can any one help?
issue:
When you press phone END button to keep th ephone in SLEEP mode,
- Phone goes to SLEEP mode and the Screen light is OFF.
- But, the Light on Physical keyboard is not switched off some times.
To see this, Get into a dark room and press END button to keep the phone in SLEEP mode.
Once the Phone is in SLEEP Mode,Do not Slide your Keyboard, Keep as it is and observe the Light from space between Slider and keyboard.
(I observed while I was sleeping..my phone was off but there was some light coming out)
I think this is not happening all the times but I have seen it many times and it is draining my battery.
To solve this, I use to open the Slider Press END button and make sure the lights or OFF and close the Slider.
Has any one observed this? can any one tell me how to solve this?
Is there a way to disable and enable the back light of Keyboard?

i understand that you are using your phone alot, as most all of us do, but how many times do you open and close your phone that this is a problem?
i usually close the keyboard, press home, press end and all lights shut off. hope this helps.
palosjr, yes I do the same. But as I said it doesn't happen all the time.
Also, it happens only with CM 4.1.11.1. I am not sure what ROM u have.
search market for backlight off. I have a bronze G1 and I prefer the kb backlight never come on at all so I use this.
Thanks man.
Finger....thanks a lot dude.
I was exactly looking for the same....
I really appreciate your info.
Here is the exact app name.... "backlight off"
Hey, I have been given a phone off a friend to fix but it wont turn on. Booting normally, I get a vibration and then the backlight comes on but i cannot see anything. When i try to boot into the bootloader by holding the camera button and powering it on, the backlight comes on but nothing else. I cannot see the bootloader. Under both circumstances, I cannot turn the phone off. I have to pull the battery to turn it off.
Does anyone have any suggestions about a possible fix? Thanks
Havie you tried send when trying to enter bootloader? If it resets then you can still get to bootloader. If not, your friend has soft bricked and only way is to JTAG which takes strong hardware knowledge and steady hands.

ok im having the exact same problem. actually i thought it was a battery problem so i spent 77$ on a 3700 mAh new batter i guess tripple life... and got it yesterday booted gave same problems. black screen where T-Mobile should be yet the rom loads with scribble screen meaning u see part but it looks like the pixels are messed up. so actually decided to resort to what someone told me a Factory Reset so Pressing Camera + Power i got a Black Backlight screen yet wont show... and I cant turn it off without Taking out the Battery this has become a issue after installing cyanogen 5.0.7 T5... since then i Re-rom'd to superbad 1.2.5 same problem screen scribbles and stops im thinking did I fry it i dont even know how to google my problem because its pretty unique it isnt a battery issue its something in the hardware ... or am I wrong please send us some feedback... ill keep this thread in mind
Sorry, what do you mean by 'send'. I am a complete noob when it comes to G1's. I have worked out i can shut off the phone by holding call + menu + end but thats it. I still cannot see anything at all on the screen. I still only get a vibration on boot. How would I know if the boot has been sucessful but i simply cannot see?
Could the flex ribbon cable be nackered?
Hello everyone, this problem happened randomly yesterday. So the power button doesn't work at all when it worked fine before, and the LED charging light is now always green and always on. Also, when I remove the battery and put it back in, the phone automatically turns on! So, does anyone know what the heck is going on here? I don't think it's a ROM problem since i've been using my current ROM for the longest time (Kang-o-rama with CM6). If anyone has any clue or hints, please share! I'd like my N1 to work again Thanks!
That is definitely your power button that died on you...I've read you can turn the phone on by charging and taking out the battery then putting it back, I guess it works for you.
Maybe you could try another ROM/kernel to see if the battery led issue gets fixed...can you turn the screen off with the power button or what?
Nope, I can't use the power button at all. Can't turn off the screen, haha, so I have to wait until it times out.
Well then, there's your problem
I highly suggest you use a sleep widget for the sake of your battery and you probably are using trackball wake anyways I guess ^^
sigh, all right. so what do you think i can do to at least get rid of the constant green light?
Actually, I can't find that sleep widget you were talking about. Can you show me one on the market or somewhere? Thanks!
I use one called Lockscreenwidget. You can find a version that has simply changed the icon here: Link. I changed the icon to suit my own purposes (You can see in the screen shot thread) but if you'd like one made using your own icon gimme a buzz, it's easy enough to change.
Hey guys, im having a bit of a problem. My phone is shuting off on itself.
Everytime i turn it on, it boots up no problem, but when i hit the power button to turn the screen off, when i want to turn the screen on again by pressing the power button, the screen just goes deep blue, and turns off.
I haven't change anything on it for quite a few months now, so i'm not sure why this is happening. Im on Viper 3.5 i think or 3.7, using faux123 kernel, dont remember which version, but an old one with which i never had any troubles... rooted, s-on
Any ideas?
Thanks!

PD: Logcat in the .rar file...was too big for .txt
Really?? No one??
Well, just for further info... my phone appeared to fix itself, since it stopped doing that weird thing for a couple of days, but now is back... nothing ever changed, no new apps, or settings or anything...
Any ideas welcome
Edit: Attaching new logcats...

I think your power button is broken (or you may have a related hardware issue). Nothing but a root app can reboot the phone, and I've never seen that happen by accident.

Yeah, i thought about it being hardware but something is off... i mean, if it where the power button, then i shouldnt be able to turn it on easily, or it wouldnt turn off the screen properly, nor would it just start working alright for a couple of days... plus, it didnt recieve any hits or anything during, before or after the problem.
I also thought it could be the screen, but when its on, it works perfectly, as on the first day...
But yeah, I'm not taking hardware problem out of the table...just seems unlikely to me...
Thanks for your answer!

Edit: also, I just found out it doesnt actually restart...screen just turns dark blue, then it powers the screen off and it wont turn on when pressing power... but i know its on, because i can still hear notification sounds of incoming messages...
Edit2: Just tried same but instead of using power button, i used logo2sleep and home2wake kernel options, and did the on/off with them, and same result...dark blue screen then off and not turning on... so it cant be power button
