I've set up automatic mailbox checking every 15 minutes. Works fine in general, but I've found two issues with it:
1) I've used KaiserTweak to disconnect active data session automatically after 1 minute of inactivity. Work ok, unless phone is sleeping. So, for instance, if GPRS/3G data connection for automatic email check is initiated while phone is sleeping, it WON'T turn off after 1 minute. When I switch phone back on from sleep and keep it awake for more than minute - then it will disconnect. Is there any way to overcome this problem?
2) Usually, when new SMS message comes in, phone is awaked and I can see the message straight on the screen. Unfortunately this is not the case with emails - when new mail arrives through automatic check, I can only hear new email sound and light starts flashing amber, but phone iself is still sleeping, and I need to turn it on manually.
Anyone stepped into these issues before and found any solutions? Thanks in advance.

It's dead easy - when you set up a new mailbox through wizard (username, password, servers etc.), the last screen asks whether you want to check email automatically every xx minutes/hours or manually...

Ah. Thanks for that, been bugging me for days
I'll keep an eye out for the issues you're having, see if it''s the same with my phone.
Ill repost in here, as i know what its like when a new thread is started, the first few replies are to search ... this is proof i have tried
Im also noticing that the "disconnect after 1 minute" doesnt work when in standby mode, which kinda defeats the object. Is there a fix anywhere so it disconnects after a minute even while in standby mode ?
Hello,
I have been a member for about 3 months or so but not been a heavy poster. (sorry about that)
anyway I have a small problem which normally gets solved by a few searchs but I don't seem to be having any luck.
I Have an Orange build kaiser (installed the today screen) and have hard reset the device a few times after encounting the same problem again and again (about to hard reset for the 4th time i belive)
back to the point, the problem seems to be a simple one in that new SMS don't appear on my today screen... weired?! and last night was the worst my phone was on charge but in standbye mode but my girlfriend couldn't connect any phone calls and when i checked my phone i had a mountain of missed calls and a bundle of txts which all came through at the same time on wake up..
(I've mentioned the fact my phone was on charge because search results suggest it was due to a 30% or less battery)
when i had the problem before I thought at 1st it was one of the many many cabs that have installed so this time i made sure i+I only had on the minumal
(forgive me but with the phone not being with me I am not sure on the names but here is the list)
HTC Home (maybe an old verison but i have tried many verisons)
HTC Home customiser (with IPHONE apps theme)
TOM TOM 6
HTC touch Keypad
A program to stop the phone connecting to the internet
A program that on start up my phone switches directly to the Keypad
Like I said used to install loads and loads of cabs but now limiting my self to a few to try and rectify the problem.
any one else had this problem? should i send it back to Orange? (I have insurance), will there be problems reinstalling TOM TOM? is one of the apps i have currently installed a problem?
any help would be much appricated and thank you in advance.
Does it exhibit this behaviour if you leave the phone in shipped condition, with NO software installed by yourself? If so, then it's faulty; if not, then install your apps one by one and test until you find what's causing it by process of elimination.
thanks for the reply...
I was going to leave it this time around with the dreaded orange home screen, was hoping someone else had a simular problem with one of the apps i have already mentioned
I'll give it a go tonight and see how it goes
thanks again for the reply
I've been using the original AT&T rom on my Tilt for a while.
For new message notifications, I set it to make a sound only (ie. no message on screen or vibration etc).
With the old rom, whenever Blackberry Connect pushed new email to my phone, it would just make the sound and stay off.
Now with the new 1.62 rom, the phone turns on with every new message.
I have installed all the same apps, the notification settings are the same (even the sound file) - so I have no idea if this is a "new feature" in the rom or not.
I usually keep my backlight on max with a 3-4min switch off but now with it switching on intermittently, I've had to keep it on min backlight and 30sec switch off - and it still drains my battery life before the end of the day!
Anyone else seeing this problem? I tried searching the Kaiser forums and found nobody reporting the same problem.
On a positive note, the new rom seems to have stabilized the phone. With BBC on previous rom, I had quite a few of the "phone freeze" problems daily. So far after the first day - no freezing... did I just trade-off one problem for another (albeit less critical)?
Thanks in advance for your help!!!
I don't think it's a new feature, because I haven't had that happen with mine. I hate to suggest a hard reset, but that may be your best solution...I'm not using blackberry connect, that may be the cause of the problem.
thanks snooginsguy for the response.
Well when the rom was upgraded that effectively hard reset my system. I just reinstalled my apps from scratch yesterday - so I'm guessing hard resetting again and repeating the reinstall probably won't fix things.
What's weird is using Blackberry connect on the old rom didn't do this previously. Anyone else with BBC on the new AT&T rom experiencing this phenomena?

Yes, I am. It used to be that the screen would come on for 5 secs. and then turn back on after an email was received. Now it just turns ON until I turn it OFF. I'm going back to one of the WM6.1 ROMs today, but not because of this.
I'm having this issue as well.
It's also happening with BBC & some of the leaked WM 6.1 ROMS.
I 'solved' it by installing S2U2 on the phone, since it keeps the phone locked & turns the screen back off after 30 seconds.
I'm having the same problem... upgraded and now every time an email comes in the screen turns on.. .sucks... someone find a fix.. please..
If you run phoneAlarm from pocket max...there is a setting under the advanced settings which automatically turns off the phone (hibernates it) after a system notification...and saves loads of battery power.
I don't run BB connect on my Tilt, but I bet that this would do the trick.
I've got the exact same problem. It's killing my battery. I may try turning back on the horrendous BlackBerry Lock application, which pretty much locks up the UI (and in many cases blocks notifications that I DO want to hear). The lock application also caused my Tilt to grind to a halt about 50% of the time, so I had to soft reset just to make a phone call. I'll look into some of the add-on apps mentioned here as well.
What's sad is that no one supports BlackBerry Connect. I contact HTC with a different issue, and they said "We only support BlackBerry Connect on the Tilt", to which I obviously replied "Uh, I have a Tilt, so why can't you help me?". They then came back with, "You need to contact RIM, who created the application". If you go to RIM's website, there is no way to contact them unless you have a support contract. Anyone know of a way to report bugs with this app?
I'll post anything I find that fixes this. It's annoying having to keep my Tilt hooked up to my PC all day long so my battery doesn't die at noon.

Can anyone confirm if this phenomenon may be specific to BBC 4.0.0.97? I don't use 1.62 but do use BBC 4.0.0.97 and see this happen. It didn't happen until I 'upgraded'. Coincidence or not?
I cannot remember which one, but I did experience this with a rom awhile ago. But my rom now does not do this with email messages...it only does that with blocked phone calls when I use magicall. So to counter this I have installed slide2unlock so that it comes on for only a few seconds and then cuts off again. I do not use BBC btw and my rom is Sleuths 6.1
Ok - great - I guess I'm not the only one having this happen. This last week I've been repeatedly getting the "battery is low" warning before 6pm - which is inconvenient since I'd like a phone to last a full day w/o having to charge it.
With the previous rom, I never had to charge it midstream - and I've had this phone since it came out on AT&T last year.
Regarding Deltaflyer's question about whether he thinks it's BBC .097 - that could very well be the case - especially if other folks not using the BBC are also not experiencing the problem.
I'll see if I can try uninstalling .097 and reverting to the old one (I think I have it saved somewhere) next week...
Fix for phone switching on
I have the same problem too. I use activesync to sync over the internet to my Exchange server. In Sounds and Notification, if I uncheck the "Events(warnings, system events). My screen doesn't light up anymore. Hope this helps!
I confirm : switching back from bbc 4.0.0.97 to .92 stops waking up the device when receiving a mail.
At least will save my battery
I'm on scap's Rom

thanks for the suggestion sanguy888.
That's typically one of the first things I do when I setup my phone. Only in this case, it did not resolve the issue.
Sounds like ben5757 has confirmed it's the bbc update.
ben5757 - would you give us an update in a few days - please to let us know how .92 is working with scap's rom? Anything freezing?
Thanks in advance!
I'm on a Tytn II, operated by SFR (France), Schap's ROM 4.31, BBC connected to a BES server.
Had installed BBC 4.0.0.97, but each email wakes the device fromsleeping mode, and consumes battery much too fast (more than 60 mails per day...).
Have uninstalled .97 and installed .92. Works without any problem since 2 days, and device remains in sleeping mode even when receiving pushmail.

Can you point me in the direction of .92? I have .97 installed and the waking up every time an email arrives is driving me nuts. Only other version I have is .84. Thanks.
Try this

I would add that I have doubled my battery lifetime
Wanted to thank ben5757 for all his support.
With the AT&T rom 1.62 & BBC .92 - my Tilt no longer switches on after each email. So far after a day's worth of email pushing - about 75 emails, I have experienced no freezing issues and battery life is back to my original Tilt days (which was only needing to charge nightly).
Talk about a win-win situation!!!
I'll see how long I can keep the device running w/o a soft reset!
The best thing was I didn't need to hard reset to downgrade to BBC .92. Just had to uninstall .97, then install .92 (after a soft reset). Also had to tell my corporate IT that I had to reactivate my corporate BB account. I was back up and running in less than 15mins!

I've had this issue with BePe 0.97, under same circunstances: charging at night.
But I had an additional issue, as the phone was endlessly restarting. It showed the initial screen and vibrated, but before it showed the ROM and Radio version it restarted again. Eventually I was able to put the PIN and boot WMobile, and I quickly turned the flight mode on (as I wanted it to be stable at night, as I needed the alarm this morning).
I've no idea about what happened, as I had made no changes, but lastly the phone only charges 2 bars during all night long, and I can't connect it to the PC via ActiveSync. (I don't know if it can be related to this problem...)
Hi all,
I am working on the official HTC rom (I believe it's 1.37) and have not installed any unknown software...
1.35 rom on my wife's TD, same problem as yours
1.37 rom on mine, same problem, abeit less frequent
now both on 1.93 rom, no problems.
maybe give it a try, been pretty smooth on both TDs so far without any tweaks done
1.93 restarts
My HTC Diamond restarts during recharge at night.. i have 1.93. this sucks.. Anyone else have this issue?
try doing a hard reset.
i had some issues like opera not working n some others that i can't recall offhand b4 when first upgraded to 1.93
i did a hard reset and have not had any issues since
funny thing is, everyday at midnight, if i were wake the phone, the minutes flap on the clock will start to flip non-stop till the exact minute eg. 12.39am; the minutes flap will continuously flip from 12.00 to 12.39
My diamond also does random restarts. Not only while charging at night, but during the day, while working with it, too.
I tried a lot of roms. On some the restarts where less frequent, but still there. Any idea what I can do about it?
Greetz
Hi,
My Diamond also random restarts. I try 3 type ROM (original CZECH, original ENGLISH, Dutty), but Diamond random restarts. Any idea???
(sorry for my english )
Hard-SPL or warranty return
Dare I suggest it, but if you have this issue AFTER a rom change, and/or after a a HARD reset then the only thing left is your SPL (Hard or otherwise)...have you "played" around here yet?
If you have and this has made no change I would be beating a path to your handset provider with you warranty card for service repair or replacement!!!

My HTC Touch Diamond has 1.93 installed and it's still happening.
Have 3 HTC Diamonds, 2 working fine and 1 got this problem since the day I bought it.
Anyone has link to download the 1.35 ROM? Thanks.
I dont think that it has something to do with Hard-SPL. I had the problem with the original rom to (never flashed).
I now used Aztor Rom, didnt install any apps, but the restarts still happen. I have the feeling that they only happen if applications were running.
Maybe the storrage gets to full?
Tonight I am going to install Panosha shine on v2.0 with a bigger pagepool- maybe that helps?!?

I got the same issue
I bought HTC diamond 20 days back. It is restarting automatically . sometimes while incoming call recieved or sometimes while calling others from contacts. sometimes in the night by itself getting restarted. more over sometime it is automatically switched off.
I am using ROM 1.93.720.2.
Can anyone help me out here
Turns off while charging and changes the clock
Hi guys, I noticed none of you had the problem like i did:
If I leave my Diamond to be charged during the night, sometimes it works just fine and nothing happens. But like this morning it really f*cked me up: It reboots and when i woke up (to the sound of the alarm clock) it was in the "enter pin" screen. TouchFlo3d worked just fine and I inserted the pin code and it's been working just fine since then. The only problem (which I discovered after my morning shower) came up when my boss called me and told me I was already 10 minutes late (work starts at 3pm). My Diamond showed me that it was still 2.35pm and I had been woken up by the alarm at 2.20 as I had set it.
So the problem: The device turns off during charging and changes the time of the clock (or the clock jams and doesn't update for a while...)
I have the 1.93.414.1 WWe ROM from htc.com and eveyrthing else works just fine. This problem was first discovered when I bought this device with the original 1.34 ROM I believe.. Updated to 1.93 and still it continues. Any suggestions ?
How did you enter the pin to boot to windows mobile? I have the same problem it keeps rebooting itself and I do not know what to do, I did hard reset but it did not help.
Thanks.
I start to investigate the wired issue...
I noticed if I put the Diamond to sleep (charge) after Midnight nothing happened and no restart during night , if I put Diamond before Midnight , then it may get Restart during the night..
The other issue I noticed the wired Clock between 00:00 and 00:39 as
some reported here, if you open the Diamond , lets say at 00:30 , u will see clock start from 00:00 to 00:01 , 00:02 etc till it arrive to 00:30 ,
I m using Second Today screen with Digital clock installed and found that there is no problem in clock , i'll explain:
During the clock moving from 00:00 to 00:30 (in the TF3D) I pressed on the Second Today and saw clock 00:30, moved back to TF3D and saw clock continue moving to the "target" 00:30..
I made 1 +1 (restart problem and clock problem) and found that the problem comes from TF3D...
To prove it I made this test - I put Diamond to sleep before Midnight ,
but after Shut down the TF3D from setting >> Today
and open the TF3D back during the morning...
Since I made it, No restart during night anymore...
So all you have to do is to close the TF3D to prevent from restert during night, and open it back in the morning..
Try it too so we can be sure it's TF3D problem..
Seems like TF3D needs to sleep too during the night
Bug in TF3d
On Duttys penultimate rom I had the clock issue but also when I went to contacts. TF3d wouldn't display them and reverted to the home screen again.

ok so i'm going to try and write down everything that is going wrong with my phone right now.
when i boot it up, touchflo will not start, i just see calender and contacts on the bottom. if i click on contacts, it takes a while to load, then just says enter a name on the top. with no list of my contacts.
i can not receive or send calls. i just had a friend try to call me and the middle round button and the send button blink, but no screen pops up saying i have a call. i try to press send and nothing happens.
i can barely send a text message, it takes about 10 minutes for the text message to load if it even loads. can't browse the internet.
calender works fine, google maps works fine, small games work fine, like teeter. age of empires will not load though. messenger will not load.
i can browse my programs though and go into file explorer.
activesync is giving me a message when i try to connect saying
"Activesync cannot connect ot the windows mobile powered device. to troubleshoot the problem, click ok."
the scan after says this
Unable to establish a connection between the PC and the device. Get up-to-date solutions to common connection problems. Please click the following link: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=65257
when i was drunk and camping on the weekend my phone gave me a message saying it could not start because it was not properly turned off the last time and said i would have to press the volume button to restart it, which i didn't do cause i didn't want to lose my contacts.
has anyone else had these problems? any way to fix it? or am i just going to have to do a hard reset?
also i'm not sure if the Pim Backup v2.8 works for the diamond? i'm in there reading right now.
another problem i noticed is that when loaded a text message, if its the first text i've gotten from a number it loads really fast, but when i load one from someone that i've communicated with for a while, it takes forever to load if it does. most times it just doesnt load and freezes for a bit.
I think we need some more information. Maybe if you answer these questions, someone can help you, before you'll have to hard reset..
The ROM version?
The TF3D version?
What software, like lockers, screen rotators, key mappers, task managers, battery savers etc. are running in the background (as a service)?
What does Settings - System - Memory say about free program memory?
Anyway, PIM Backup works fine on the Diamond. Good luck!
