I've loaded .mUn. 1.25TE on my Trinity. I've had it once too, it was hanging on the new HTC logo. I've pressed the soft reset button for awhile and it was running again.
Yeah....and you've learned now to NEVER EVER reload a systembackup of a different previous ROM

Right, with so quick ROM udates backup lost every sense
What I suggest you and what I have done, as I have a 4Go card, I have created a folder where I have all my cabs and all my serial numbers, in case i have to reinstall it.
It takes me about 30 minutes to have the same environement that I had, and I have lot of programs (wheather panel, spb plus, spb diary, battery status, skype, tomtom 6.03, .....)
I have also all the restoring setting for these programs in order to not always have to set all my options every time

I have 1G SD card for while (wait for 4G) and I have same folder except restoring settings. Now I'll use backup for programs only. It's good idea. Thanks.

Hello everyone,I have the Vanilla ROM. 1.4 I believe, what has happened is that I had a friend look at my blue angle because he was considering getting one himself, he went to my Mobile Shell application from SPB, activated the portrait view (took time to load and he did not know that) so he decided to press is like a lot!!
So it tried to do landscape/portrait mode a lot! so we rebooted the thing. Then another problem came that the phone locked itself, and when trying to unlock the phone nothing worked, (press the "*" again to unlock the phone) that did not work at all.
After spending a lot of time I fixed that, then the screen alignment/navigating with the D-Pad was all screwed up, I managed to get to the screen alignment program and fixed that. Now I have this serious problem.
The phone cannot connect to my service provider (Cingular). And here is the funny part... Hard Reset does not at all!! very strange. Using a backup file I had useing SPB backup that also did not work.
(also I tried draining the backup battery and that did not work as well, guess the volatile memory thing in WM5 worked).
Please someone help me in this problem as I cannot use my phone! :'(
Fixed
Sorry about the post, I have fixed it by doing
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1164331
worked perfectly, reset the phone easily and now restoreing with a backup.
But if anyone can please tell me why Power/Reset did not do a hard reboot?
Hard reset is not enough
I've flushed my phone about 50 times during last two weeks.
I think, that there are some cases, that same data or state of "things" can survive flashing and hard reset. At least using helmi_c or my ROM.
Simply test: flash any helmi rom, turn on wifi and/or set button lock to wake up only using power button and perform hard reset. State of lock button is not changed, wifi tries to connect to any access point. Even reflashing with the same rom is not enough.
I'm guessing only: I think, that there is small bug - reset procedure checks validity of any particular block (or blocks) of data and skips initialization of same data it if is looks valid.
Maybe you have got the same.
Im soo pissed off right now.
So here is the situation. I'm hoping that I can quickly find help for the battle that me and my AT&T Tilt WM 6.1 are going through.
The name of the war -
CLEARTEMP ERASED EVERYTHING!!!!
So im at work on my office phone when my Tilt (which was in my holster on my hip) started vibrating... in three buzzes. I thought it was a message so I didnt answer right away.
5 minutes later I take out my phone to see who sent me a message but for some reason instead of seeing the S2U2 screen there was a "are you sure you want to?" block asking if i wanted to erase one of my programs because it was a unistalled registry, so the first thing i did was say no...... IT DID THAT FOR ABOUT 28 TO 30 DIFFERENT PROGRAMS!!!
Afterwards I exited out of Cleartemp to see if the programs were still on my phone but to my surprise not only were all of my programs gone but my storage card was completely erased and their was no settings folder and the only thing left in the programs folder was Games, tool box, file explorer and that fu3kin Media net.
I would have simply hard reset and used my sprite backup but there was no settings folder to get to the hard reset and my storage card was wiped completely clean.
so now i cant even hard reset and start from the ground up.
What can i do?
THANKS IN ADVANCE for taking the time to scratch your head in curiosity with me.
I would appreciate anyones help in helping me get through this War!!!
"THE VILLAIN"
Yeah man ClearTemp F'ed up my phone once too! Not nearly as bad as yours though, sorry to hear that.
ANyways, just hard reset using your soft keys and stylus. To do this, hold down your 2 soft keys they ones with the little horizontal dash on them the ones above the IE and mail icon buttons.
So push and hold those in with two fingers of one hand,
then with your other hand hit the soft reset button with your stylus.
Release the soft reset button and keep pressing the soft keys.
When the "This operation will delete all your personal data, to manufacturer default" appears on screen.
Press Green call button to restore manufacturer default,
or press Red call button to cancel.
had it happen to me as well
I had the same thing happen to me as well a week back, but fortunately I had just gotten a new card,so I recopyed all the info off my old card onto my new one... Im not sure why clear temp does that... but I dont want to use it again.. it has problems.
Hope you can restore it all the same!
-El
I had the same problem lost a lot of mp3s and also my backups that were in the SD!! i was fortunate to find some old backup file and a SD card mirror folder on my computer and restored all, now i make sure i have both my internal storage and SD card copied to my computer.
Same issue. I ran cleartemp, my phone froze. I rebooted it and my storage card was corrupted. I lost most of the stuff on it. No more cleartemp for me, I now manually clean up ****.

Ditto.
Can anyone suggest any alternative auto-cleanup apps?
Theres a reason they call it flash-storage...
Never ever use SD/MMC/CF/USB Memstick/Other Flash-style-media for critical information or backups...
On another note I have been using cleartemp for nearly a year in a cooked rom and have never had a problem.
Suddenly my Sprint HTC Touch Diamond is running extremely slow. TouchFlo 3D will not start. Various things runs extremely slowly like tapping on the start menu takes like 20-30 seconds to come up.
Rebooted several times. Turned off TouchFlo. Phone's still as slow as molasses?
What to do? Flash the ROM? If so, which I'd hate to do, where do I get the original Sprint based ROM?
Update: For some reason \Windows\manilla.exe never gets run. If I run it by hand then Touch Flo comes up. But it's still kinda slow.
Who/What starts manilla.exe?
Simply do a hard reset, this will reset everything back to original rom as in a factory reset.

That would be wonderful if I didn't customize things. But I have - heavily. And I'll need to reinstall all my apps. I was hoping not to do that...

But this is the most likely reason it is running slowly... Needs a hard reset and start again - and be judicious with what you re-install.
Before doing a hard reset, have you tried a soft reset??
A soft reset for heavy users is almost required dally in some cases to release the memory from being attached to programs and the OS which is consider to be called "Memory Leaks." A typical problem for all 6.1 Roms.
This slow and sometimes unresponsive behaviour was what also experience as well. There are programs that help memory find it's home but sometimes a good old fashion soft reset is what's needed.
Last thing: Make sure that when you have flashed a new ROM to ALWAYS do a HARD RESET immediately. Not sure if you followed that procedure in your last flash. IF not, I'm afraid a soft reset might not be sufficient to remedy this issue for you.

This is exactly what I was trying to avoid. A computer doesn't suddenly go from running OK to dog slow when you have not changed anything (I only rebooted/soft reset). The running of manilla.exe doesn't suddenly disappear.
Everything I install I install for a reason.

Daily! If not hourly. WinMo is not known for being stable.

I'm well versed in what memory leaks are. 'Round here we call them bugs. Being in the business for some 30 years now I can tell you that having to reboot an OS periodically is a sign of an extremely buggy OS. Unfortunately that's what WinMo is.

There's a big difference between being slow and being suddenly SLOOOOOOOOOWWWWW.

I've yet to flash this phone. I was hoping to avoid it. There are so many ROMs to choose from, some better than others. And I'm not looking forward to having to reapply all my customizations...
i get a problem like this occasionally after a restart. I need to hit the green dial key to get it to ask my PIN. after i enter my pin everything is back to normal.
just an idea
sprite backup
What you should do is when you hard-reset the phone and you have installed all your must-have apps (and the phone still runs smoothly) use Sprite Backup to make an image. This way when things go bad again, just restore the Sprite image to that wonderful time when everything still worked smoothly and you won't have to install all the apps again. Only the apps you installed after the image ofcourse... depends how often you backup
Works like a charm.
Be careful though, when you flash another rom, you CAN'T use the Sprite image anymore!! You have to make a new image then.
Hope this helps.
A strange thing is happening to my phone....
when i restart my phone it shows launching touch flo...
but it never starts....
I get it working when I format the phone but it again fails to start when I load the contacts & messages from PIM backup
using original ROM version 1.35
Hi there,
i having the similar problem.
mine VIVA(aka OPAL) cannot be launched. it always show "touch flo launching" but somehow it shows no reponses. After hard reset, it will back to normal.
hope any masters from forum could help up as i not willing 2 hard reset every encounter this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Dear all OPAL user,
After research on this issue, i had found the root cause for this problem.
This problem caused by the restoration of backup message from backup pim.
for my case, my backup has 2000++ messages, when i tried to restore them to the VIVA that i had just refresh the rom. Then the M2D will reflect freaky damn slow. at last, i realized that M2D couldn't be loaded due to the 2000++ messages.
Conclusion: delete unwanted messages occassionally, it will relief some heavy loading for message display in M2D.
Good luck guys.
Hi,
my custom ROM flashed Blackstone has this nasty habit. After some days I try to turn him on but the screen stays just black. The only way to bring him back to life is to take out the battery. Because of these freezes I overslept multiple times as the Blackstone did not wake me up.
I tried Goldlocke, Gregor G10 and Topix. I always do a task29 before flashing a new ROM. I also tried multiple radios like 1.13, 1.14 and actual 1.17. Before I had Dutty 4.3 which did not have this problem.
If anybody can give me a hint about the problem I would be thankful.
Not sure if it can help, but...
Try to delete the "Application data" folder in your microSD card.
Bye, Marco.

sounds like ''microp error''..

I had similar problem, so I sent my phone to repair. Now I have new motherboard and display. Everything is O.K.

No lockup since almost a week now! It seems your "solution" works fine. Do you know the background of this behaviour?
...
probably you have installed something onto the sd card and not uninstalled it or flashed new rom, leaving the data still on the sd card and the device reading it as it would..

YES, I flashed original SPL, original firmware. The problem was still here. So i sent the phone to reclaim.
which folder in Application Data to delete?
I have two: HTC and Maxsense. In maxsense its just an image. in htc its databases and imagecache
...
delete entire folder..
Just tried myself deleting app data but still no joy....
I have found that my HD locks up in the dark !!
If I have the phone in my pocket, 9 out of ten times it locks up.. Only once it has locked up out of my pocket !! Screen lock is also on to stop any button press problems..
I have switched auto back light OFF and Pocket mode OFF but it still does it..
Any thoughts / Ideas please ???
try uninstalling neos drivers, and if you can't, install nmet cab to disable this drivers. in some blackstones neo's drivers seems to cause this problem.
...
solved??..
if not..
dissable "auto adjust backlight" in power settings..
