Ive Noticed Ever Since Purchasing My Tilt (about 3 Weeks Now) I Have Had To More And More, Have To Sleep On The Couch (my Wifes Doing). Is There A Rom Or Hack For This Problem.
......sorry I Could Not Resist.......
Maybe you should see if there's a CAB available that will remove her. I know there's a Yellow cab ready at all times
Also, see if you can find a registry hack that will disable the annoying capitalizing of every word in your posts. We Don'T Have To Capitalize Every Word Cause It's Annoying, and it wont qualify you for better parking if your CAPS lock is only partially disabled.

I have had the same problem! And it got pretty bad for a few days, until I figured out a solution.
This is a bit complicated so pay very close attention (or you may want to jot these instructions down to refer to later):
1. turn the phone to look at the right side of the unit
2. locate a tiny button with a little red symbol on it. (You may have used this jewel of a button to awake your awesome Kaiser (a.k.a. at&t Tilt) phone when it has fallen asleep (while you got distracted for a few moments).
3. PRESS this button for only 1-second and release. I have learned - through trial and error - that this button also turns OFF the phone. BUT DONT WORRY! It's not really off, its just sleeping and you will still receive calls, text messages and even calendar event reminders (whew I worried about receiving these!).
I know these instructions can be very stressful, but they may have saved my marriage. I would highly consider you trying this procedure at least once an evening (like during meals, when your spouse is trying to communicate with you, and especially (grin) at 1am while your laying in bed browsing the xda-developers forums for all the cool tools, cabs and Roms out there and your wife rolls over and says, "don't you ever put that thing down??!!"
;-)
Sorry about the caps i wa not paying attention.

You have to make sure you get the right kind of cab though... It can be confusing because here in the DC area yellow cabs aren't yellow, they are bright orange??? You must be very careful because you must be sure you really want to do that before you run the cab. It is usually very painful, difficult, and expensive to uninstall the wife update. Even then if you manage to partially uninstall the wife, if you have added new devices to your PAN while the wife update was installed then it may take up to 18 years to fully uninstall the wife. It wrecks havoc with your network settings, and often once uninstalled the wife update will often take half of your network resources and permissions with it (sometimes all of them!). Also be very careful of MIL.dll. It often installs itself in the background when the wife update is being installed. MIL.dll is often considered spyware, nagware, and often it falls within both categories, but there is often nothing much that can be done about MIL.dll without uninstalling the wife update. Some feel it is worth starting all over again with just a bare-bones system, but most feel that the benefits of the wife update outweigh the negatives. It is better to live with the occasional problems that the wife update may cause, than to try and remove it.
Try hard reseting her. Hold down both of her soft nipples and stick your stylus in her butt. That should get quick results. haha

I'm using Dutty's special Bottylicious ROM. Works great with softcore resets like that! haha
LMAO! Maybe you could just install another cab Iv seen around, It's called abitontheside.cab, it can be simply installed without going through all the bother of unstalling the wife update. Just make sure you dont run both at the same time as Iv heard they can conflict with each other.
I bought my wife an iPhone, now she can't say anything because she spends just as much time surfing the web and playing with the other 4 things you can do with an iPhone
Hi!
was working night shift. when I looked on the ground and noticed that the screen on my phone was on. so I graped it to turn it of, when I realiced that it wasn't the screen but the flash on the back next to the camera. its not as bright as when the flash is actually turned on in the camera menu. and the only way I found to turn it of is by pulling the battery out, anyone had/has a similar problem.
Michael
there was someone else who had a post about this before - search "light always on" or something like that but there was a recent post with someone who had the same problem
I did a search. not that i didn't do so before. the only thing that came up was for a different phone (wizard) not for Xperia. been looking around now for the last couple days and haven't been able to find anyone else with a similar problem. well at least on the internet.
any one else

I wonder if he/she did ever fix it. well if I can't fix it soon I will have to take it back to the shop.
Edit: after posting I did another search and wolla. found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485701 . this might explain it a liitle bit. after reading does posts I think I better not wast my time. since it really looks like a hardware issue
well. send it off to three on monday. they called me back yesterday.
the LED is allways on due to the wiring on the main board being corroded. we have disconnected the wire. because the damage is from corrosion we can't fix it under warranty. we are sending it back to you today.
were did the corrosion come from. its never been anywere near water.

Sweat (perspiration lol)?
or maybe if you live near the ocean?
When lights are always on like that it does usually mean there was or is some trace of liquid on the circuits or on the led itself.
When you receive the phone, try disassemble it and clean the corroded circuit with alcohol and it should be good, if its only the short causing the led to always receive power.
That sucks though...
I was the first to post about this issue. 4 months on or so and I still have the same problem. The light has remained on all the time since then, although not as high intensity a when the flash is on. It's no big deal, you get used to it, like the led lights on the side of the phone. I'd also like to say this has not impacted on the flash whatsoever. It still works

You mean to say that it has been running non-stop(minus restarts) for 4 entire months???
thats good news for me to know the LED is so durable.
so you haven't tried disassembly and cleaning it yourself, the corrosion that is. I taken my x1 apart already and its not that hard, just have to be gentle.
Yep. Although remember the intensity is not that high as when you switch on the flash to take a pic. And actually even though the phone is off the led remains on. It's the battery you need to take out. So it's been on constantly for the past 4 months.
same problem

so did you ever solve this problem? i have the exact same issue with my xperia. Any help would be appreciated.
Ohhkay, here is my issue. If my phone
1. Dies, when i put it on the charger weather it be the wall or the computer, and then turn it on it wont turn on completely. It shows a picture telling me to connect my phone to a computer.
or
2. If i turn my phone off manually by the lock screen button and then try to turn it on it does the same thing as if the phone died.
The fix is to pull the battery once its on, and then turn it on. Is this a common issue and just a part of one of the many bugs with this new OS? Thanks!
No problem here... better take it back and let em check it

I wouldn't consider your issue a bug at this point. You might want to take it to the store and have it swapped. If it happens on your replacement then its a bug; if someone else mentions it then its a bug.
Again, start with step one, take the phone back and have it swapped.
How long/complicated/tiresome/time consuming is backing up my ENTIRE phone to my computer, and then reloading EVERYTHING back to the replacement?

I'm not sure what you mean by backup as WP7 doesn't have any backup abilities. Are you referring to your music via Zune. All the apps you download are via marketplace which is in the cloud. likewise your e-mail which is also in the cloud.
You've got 25GB of skydrive for your documents that are also cloud based hence no backup. Again you may want to give more details by backup/restore.

It isn't complicated. It's actually very simple. Sign into Live.com and that will sync most of your info. Connect to Zune and the rest will be loaded.
I had to do it 4 times. I'm on my fourth HD7. Stuff like placing tiles and the arrangement of you main page is manual, though.

Tiles and settings is what it comes down to? Ok well even with this issue I don't really care if its there. My phone only died once, when I first got it, and there was only one case where I had to turn the phone off because of an app. As long as its not confirmed by Microsoft that it is a hardware issue, I could care less, it will get fixed if it is software related. So this thread made me come to this conclusion. "If its not a hardware issue confirmed by Microsoft then I dont care"

I just remembered, you also need to manually install the apps you got from the Market. They don't install automatically yet...later in an update, hopefully.

Yes, I agree; having all your downloaded apps (on your phone) sync to ur computer visa versa (computer to phone) would be great. To take it one step further have them sync'ed to your live account! That would be cool. To just input your windows live id on ur new wp7 device and everything but the placement of your tiles and settings would be there. Ahhh, we can only dream, lol. (or hope)
and here is a picture of my screen when i plug in my phone after i get the "connect your wp7 device to a computer" screen.

Actually I was more referring to the way Android 2.2 does it. Sign in to Gmail or the Market and all your apps will be restored. But that would be great...a bit thefty...LOL...if the apps could backup to the PC.
My phone does it too. But only if I let my phone die completely. After the "Break In" for the batt. I don't let my phone die. Usually always have some form of a charger close by. Should I look into swapping it out? I mean it's not that big of a deal for me but if it's something that should be avoided I'll go swap tomorrow.
I have had the issue a couple time but I figured out that I was actually pushing the power and volume buttons at the same time. I have the phone in the case from T-Mobile the Speck. The case seems to make the buttons super sensitive. I paid attention to what I was doing when I plugged it in and realized I was holding it in a manner while plugging it into the charger and computer that was applying pressure (not much pressure either) to the power and volume buttons. I took off the case for the day and didn't have any trouble. So it's back in the case now and I just pay close attention to where I put my fingers when plugging it in.

The same exact thing happened to my HD7 twice around four days ago right after charging (my phone is just 5 days old). I had to take out the battery for the phone to turn on again. Never happened again though. I must have pressed something.
If it's still showing the download screen even if you're not touching the volume button, then the phone is touching the volume button itself. Call 611 or 1-800-937-8997 to set up a warranty exchange. If you bought it second hand, you're stuck with it.
Hi !
Sometimes when I start my watch It starts to blink in dimmed mode. If I touch the screen it stops and I got standby screen but when it goes to dimmed mode it starts to blink again. It can do this for a while and then work great all day whiteout blinking. Some times it has started to blink after I take it of the charge dock. I tried to reset the watch and when I did that it worked for about a week but today it happened again. Did a new reset and removed some apps from it to see if that helps.
Anyone else with this problem ?
Are you using an original watch-face or some 3rd party solution ?
If it's behaving identical while using one of the pre-made faces, you might have a faulty unit.

I use 3 party watch face. But the strange thing is that my watch works over a week after reset. Maybe it's because I have been doing things with it to much, changing watch faces and so on. Now I have removed some watch face apps to see what happen. It has worked for a couple of days now.
Skickat via Tapatalk
Same for me
My watch R does the same and I'm using the original faces, not a 3rd party one. It started doing this random flashing after about 1 week of use. But I noticed the other night that the charger (the travel adapter that plugs into the wall) was making quite some noise... I'm suspecting it is defective, and that it could have induced the issues on the watch.
Anyhow, contacted LG and am sending the whole package for repair & check, will let you know if the issue disappears. Definitively not acceptable for me to have such a nice smartwatch but behaving like that!

omg...seem like i am not alone...
mine is more like steph case....it will flash most of the time when i took it out from charger when 100% charge....it only flash like 3/4 of the screen. the flash is like max brightness.
initially i thought it only happen when i didnt use the adapter come in the package. but when i now use the original adapter, it still happen.
nothing can be done to stop the flashing until i power off the the watch this is depressing. i bought my watch direct from korea. now if warranty purpose, i will need to return it back to seller in korea.

Yeah... seems like a common issue if you ask me, I really hope LG knows how to fix this! In my case it was the same: only the top half of the screen was flashing. The other day, even after 2 reboots it kept doing it, quite annoying. I really thought initially that it was related to the travel charger making this frizzle noise, but seeing both your similar experiences, it is probably not related.
Can't you claim the warranty in Singapore? Before you return yours, let's wait and see if they manage to fix mine! :fingers-crossed:
This morning when I took it from the charging it started to flash, continued to do so even after a restart but then I just left it flashing and after a while it had stopped and now it have worked all day so far. Will probably appear tomorrow again. Will do a warranty claim on mine now.

Where did you bought yours? (I see your nickname and signature so I suppose you are in sweden ) ... Mine is from net-on-net. I have no probems with mine, yet, but, just in case things will start to go wrong, I need to be prepared .
As with any new release, looks like there are some problem units in the wild. I returned my first unit which had putty gray white markings on the bezel, flaky bluetooth and unreliable accelerometer and got a new unit with bright white markings, solid bluetooth and reliable accelerometer. Just like my Surface Pro 3. Took 3 units before I got one without bugs.

yup..mine always happen after 100% charged and then undock it from docking.
then if you touch the screen or touch the button then it will flicker.
but there is once ...the flicker just happen out of no where...fortunately i just step out from cinema hall...else it will be super embarrassment..
Here is a short video of my symptom, this is right after I toke it of the charger
https://www.dropbox.com/s/msltd8uocgwlxxi/MOV_0004.mp4?dl=0
This is not the worst scenario, when it is at its worst you can't see anything, it just flickers
I know it's dead here, but figured I'd ask...
My Glass sat for a while. It was working when I put it away. I pulled it out and now whenever the screen is active, it's blank, and it constantly plays a sound over and over.
Touchpad seems to work. It sounds like its doing something but the only way I've seen something active on the screen is if I take a picture, I get a quick flash of what I took, or framing marks.

Nothing definitive. I believe I connected it back up to the app and that seemed to help.. I may have updated it, I don't recall, but it did eventually stop and become usable.
I remember there was something I did that seemed to help and I thought to myself "well gee I should have done that to start"...only I don't remember what it was. I think it had something to do with connecting up, maybe screen sharing with the glass app? Not sure.
