Backlight Defaults to MINIMAL After a Call! And Other Problems.

Good Afternoon
I had a new TyTN II Delivered from orange after mine was nabbed at the weekend, and i locked it remotely. When i make a call now all is hunky dory, but whilst in that call if i go to press START for example nothing will happen, so again i try another way and press X to go to the today screen to then press start, Nothing happens.
I inform my caller ill call them back, and end the call by either pressing "End Call" or pressing the Red Button, and then instantly the Back light defaults to a very low setting, and it did NOT do this on my previous TyTN II.
I have spent a fair while looking through here and google (and also MoDaCo Forums) trying to find a solution. I only know of one other person on MoDaCo who has the problem, and i have tried hard reset on the device too to no avail.
It is a Orange HTC TyTN II, so i have called them also for advice and they know about as much about it as i do.
This is a plea for someone here maybe to lend me a hand and sort this out, otherwise its going to collide with the nearest large surface in the next few days ha ha.
Thanks again for reading, and I hope someone can help me!

screen off
I select don't blank/turn screen off in a call, as I often want to enter dtmfs for mailboxes, or conf calls, downside uses a bit more battery

Hi mgr2003.
I have these options set, and it doesnt make a blind bit of difference unfortunately. I was hoping for some kind of CAB file for a fix? I dont know whats wrong with this device but its not as good as my previous TyTN II.
Sean

This question keeps being asked about once every week since the TyTNII came out. Sorry, but it is getting a bit annoying....
Once again: it´s caused by a bug in the HTC ROM and happens when a device password is set and the backlight times out during a call. Solution: disable the device password or - if you want to keep the password - push the power button twice after a call and you are back in business.....

That would be an all well and good answer but i do not have a password set on my device, so the answer doesnt justify?
Cheers for the Advice though.
Sean

I also have that problem with my tilt....when i am on a call the screen turns off..How can i disable this?

In that case I apologize for my somewhat rude reply. Your problem description just seemed to fit that bug exactly....
Sorry, have no idea what else may be causing that behaviour. Good luck, and if you manage to fix your issue be sure to let us know!

Did you use Kaiser Tweak to disable fast sleep?

Hi
I havent done anything to the device, it is exactly as shipped by OrangeUK. Its only 3 days old now, so not even had a second to do anything but use it.
Sean

I have an Orange TYTN II and this bugged me too.

Follow instructions on thread and disable Fast Sleep (advised)
Normal Backlight and Power Settings will still be active

PROBLEM : Call drops after first ring?

Hi,
I'm having trouble with my Diamond. When a private number calls, it gets dropped after the first ring, before I get a change to get then phone even out of my pocket?
Its really frustrating... and its starting to do it on number, unbarred numbers?
Has anybody seen anything like this before? It doesn't happen all the time, but its getting pretty consistent!
I'm running SwiftBL 5.6 and Radio 100.05.25
Please help!

yes, I'm experiencing the same thing too and I'm using the official 1.93 rom.
as far as I know, it doesn't only affect private call and the problem is very random.
What I notice is the phone will keep ringing until you press any button or the touchscreen to answer or mute the call and that's the time the phone will drop the call....hoping to find solution too....

I had the same problem with the HTC 1.93 ROM. Changing radios made no difference. Switched to Swift v5.6 and all is OK. BTW am in UK on Orange.

even with 1.37 rom, i'm also having the problem....wonder does anyone know what's the problem and solution....

I had this problem after I've tried to sort out the 3 sec delay problem... After a Hard Reset and not playing with the 3 sec delay problem everything is fine....

hmm....I didn't mess with that delay at all but still the problem is there...

Lay your phone on the table and try again.
Most comes with the problem in your pocket.
As soon as the phone rings the touchscreen is enabled and it drops the call because it thinks you pressed ignore.
This problem can be solved by s2u2.
I had the same problem and solved it with this program.
It blockes your touchscreen unless you slide it from left to right completely.
Grtzzzz

Yeah, thats exactly it I think... because its always in my pocket, but I have the HTC case, which by the time I've either take it out of my pocket or out of the case, the call has gone!
Does anybody have a link for that app s2u2.
I will try this... because I tried changing the ringer settings and all sorts, and nothing helped! All the iPhone and N95 guys are slagging me at work! Apart from that its by far the best phone in the office
Cheers for the help!
Will report back if I find that and app if it works!

definitely not due to that problem. Numerous time, my phone was not in my pocket but on the desk already. A couple of time when the phone ring, I pick it up and press the answer button(touchscreen and hardware button) but it just drop the call....haizzzz
No one else has this problem?

I'm getting exactly the same problem (I'm using the official Vodafone 1.93 ROM)...really annoying!

I am getting this problem too... anybody have a solution? Whenever a private number comes in, when i click on the answer tab, the call will just disconnect... this is very fustrating...

I also get this issue, always with a private number and sometimes with a stored number. At first I thought it was becuase I was touching the screen when I first took the phone out of my pocket but like someone else said this also happens when its on a table.
Any help would be really appreciated!!

Please Help White screen, discoloration, and unresponsive touch

Hi all,
I have a T-mobile wing and it has the stock rom on it. Also, it is not hard spl anymore. I used to have open touch 6.1 lite diamond. The phone turns on and makes the keyboard sound. When it turns on there is a white screen but if you move the screen out so that the keyboard is visible you can see a discolored screen with windows mobile on it. Also, you cannot use the touch screen. The farthest you can get is the welcome screen that has the align screen but it wont align. Would anyone be kind enough to please help me with this issue. I greatly appreciate the help and great thanks to all in advance. I have read around in the forums and it says to buy a new screen, a digitizer, or fix the display drivers. I currently think it might be a software problem but I do not know where to start. Again any help is appreciated and thank you all again in advance for your help.

Have you given the unit some time indoors to warm up? Working for Garmin tech support, I have seen many wierd thing go on with screens and electronic device as a whole when it starts getting cold outside.
Then again, it may be something that is going on with the software of the phone. Something along the lines of a display driver.

Thank you very much for responding. Yes, I have let the unit warm up. At first this problem went away but it came back after. What do you mean by display drivers? Do you think I should hard-spl again and try a new rom? And if that doesn't work, should i open up the unit and see if the cable it tightly attatched? Before the discoloration, I was able to use my phone with open touch 6.1 lite, but there was a white screen when the keyboard was not visible. Also, when i moved the keyboard, the phone would work by allowing to me call and text but it would freeze a lot. I hope this clarification helps.

Mod please move to herald section because this topic may or may not pertain to herald mobile 6.
Would anyone please help me I would greatly appreciate any advice, thanks in advance to all. p.s. I added pics and the touch screen doesn't work, the physical keys kind of work when the screen is viewable.

Reply please!
did you ever figure it out!? oh wow finally i found someone with a similar problem. my wing was in my pocket at work when the first similar signs arose. ITS PRACTICALLY BRAND NEW! it did that for a while and now the screen is just all white=( PLEASE help! anything would be good. i just want to know if its fixable or should i just get a new phone. you can email me too at [email protected]

My Diamond's screen can not be aligned.

I have a hTC Touch Diamond and recently found the machine's screen can not be aligned. Not actually not alignable but sometimes it shifts to left or right. Sometimes, when the machine is recharging, making a call or using Wifi, it becomes hot! and it happens the problem. Today, I found it will has the problem when I holding it on my hand. I will need to perform the screen alignment 100 times a day.
Anybody could help to fix this problem? Or even though you tell me the term of this issue would be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Season Lau

I had this issue. The only solution is to exchange the device for another one.

Screen Scrambling Issue

Hey everyone. I have a problem that I haven't seen here on the forum. I changed the case on my x1 a while back, and since then I have a problem where my screen starts scrambling when it's connecting to Edge, and it won't stop until it connects back to HSDPA. I don't know what I could have done that would make it start doing that. Any ideas???

Which rom and radio version are you using? does it happen in landscape mode? have you tried a hard reset or other roms? can you take a screenshot or photo so we can get an accurate picture of what it is doing? Even tho it sounds like a software issue, would you be willing to open your phone up and check the screen cable and if not is it still under warrentee?

my rom version is 1.05.948.11 and I'm running R3AA011
my radio is 1.14.25.55
It does happen in landscape mode also
I haven't done a hard reset since the problem started but I think I might try, it's just gonna suck...
I haven't been able to take a screenshot of it because it never happens when I want it to which is reaaaaaally annoying...
It's not under warranty so I would open but only as a last resort, even though I've done it like a million times it's still a b****...

I did a hard reset and still have the problem, that rules out software. So I'm assuming it's hardware but exactly what is it that's causing it. And why would it only happen when the network loses 3g coverage. Some type of interference? I need some help please! It's driving me nuts.

i have the same problem too. can any one explain this?

i'm just guessing, maybe it's radio interference. what band is your network? do you loose some shielding when changing case? I believe there's some metal tape that's works as ef shield. maybe hsdpa radio frequency is too high that it doesn't affect internal parts. remember crt tube? ancient tv, radios?

sorry sir but i am not familiar of this things. out of warranty i disassemble it and change the whole case and the tft resistive toucsreen and it looked fresh as new cleaning the keyboard. checking the whole unit i found no problems at first but that occured after changing a custom rom.so i felt sad seeing my unit scrambles screen when connceting to 3g.. first i thought of the Apllication problem because whenever i close opera mini the screen runs fine even using it. but when i try manila and connect to weather it jumbles scrambles again...even changing roms didnt work at all so my suspect is what you are saying. so if you have any ideas on what location is that part that i am going to fix and add tape or somethin can you give some ideas or pictures and where the x1 internal part will be and i am willing to wait on your reply. i also have a link on Questions and answers section i also have on the link the sample picture of what is going on on my unit and background of it. please do have a reply thank you so much and god bless.

waiting for response thank you so much i really love my phone and i always want it to be perfect.
YES!!
i already found out the answer for this thing... the signal located at the bottom of the xperia x1 near the speaker is the main problem.. too much exposure to the signal reception can cause the screen to jumble. and for that conclusion i don't know what to shield to reduce the amount of signal.... any advice???
