TyTN II Problems

There seems to be a problem with the Kaiser. After finishing a phone call on the Kaiser the backlight goes off and stays off and I cannot access the Start menu. I can access all other functions but backlight stays off and one still cant get into the Start menu from anywhere on the screen. I have to press the power off button quickly once and then wait a second, press it again to be able to access the start button or the light to come on. This is definitely a bug in the tytn II and I hope HTC is doing something about this.

I have experienced the same thing.
After the phone call. I did not hang up.
Instead the person at the other end hangs up and I tries to navigate away then the phone appears to lock up.
Could not turn the phone off either. Had to wait until the phone turned itself off. Once restarted everything ok...

I noticed this as well...
pretty crazy.

Hmm I haven't that problem. Danish HTC TyTN II

Do you folks have the password set? I have heard that that can cause this problem. Try to turn off password checking.

Hi @ All, any news about that problem?

I have a solution
I had the same problems and after installing all the ROM's and still have the same problems, I found out that the problem is not in the ROM it is in the 3G network, disable the 3G network and set it to GSM and all the problems will disappear.

This was nothing to do with 3g.
It was a pre-programmed fast sleep setting that was flawed. Download Kaiser Tweak and turn off all the sleep during call options.

Difference in memory in use
I have problem with my TyTN II, I don´t know why, but when I control the state of the memory in use, it seems to be 112 MB in use and 19,4 MB free. But when I control every item (Applicationdata, Confimgr, ProgramFiles etc., even including hidden files) and calculate total then it seems to be only 45 MB in use. Can anyone explain this
thanks

Start icon not functional

Has anyone come across the problem of a TILT hanging up (could not find common denominator when does this occur) and ONLY the "Start" icon (and the "start" button)is inoperable. i.e. all functions work perfectly, however I have no way of getting to the Start screen - only soft reset. Help anyone

Do you have a password set? Does this only happen after a call? If so, this has been discussed many times - just do a quick search.
If not, I´m afraid I can´t help you with your issue.
Good luck!

I think I had this problem also. I'm not sure what causes it, but it looks like ti appears after I try to use MS Voice Command.

I had this problem. I found it doesn't need a soft reset, just switch it off (hit the power button briefly) and back on again. Fixed it every time. Annoying but not fatal...

I am having a similar problem. I recieved an 8925 with a touch screen that doesn't work. No physical damage, but I noticed there is no start screen. I got it to upgrade to WM 6.1but still no start menu or system settings. It boots to the align screen but of course the touch screen doesn't work so that's all I get. Sometimes I get past that and the rest of the PDA seems to work with the keypad. I have reset it several times and still nothing. I removed the touchscreen and ordered a new one. Hope I haven't spent folishly. If someone has a clue to what the problem is I would be very grateful.

Tilt Freezes after the screen goes blank.... sometimes

Hello
I am a newbie here so hopefully I don't screw up to bad. My tilt will freeze sometimes after it has been in what I call Hibernate (screen turns off after 30 secs or so). What is odd is if I slide out the keyboard it will change from portrait to landscape but I can't make anything happen when I touch the screen. If I soft reset the device it works fine. Please help, I really don't want to do a hard reset.
Thanks
Garry

That happens to me sometimes too. You're lucky you can soft reset, I have to take off the battery for it to reboot.

Yeah, I thought it might be the cube, which I unistalled but I am sure it is something I have installed..... Just not sure what so when/if I hard reset. I know not to reinstall it.

I've had this problem as well, with the stock AT&T ROM on the Tilt. The phone inexplicably will not wake up. Soft reset will successfully restart the phone (for me).
When the phone is essentially "locked up", it will not receive calls - which sucks.
Playing with the settings, I (maybe) lessened the frequency of such lockups by increasing the Today Timeout to 12 hours (maximum). I don't know if this did it, but I've only had one lockup since - rather than two to three times a week.
I'm new to PDA type phones and WM6, so I don't know much - but maybe this will help you guys. It may also be complete coincidence on my end. Who knows?

I had the same problem with evey ROMs.
But since I don't use HTC home and HTC close program this kind of freezing disappeared.
I don't know which one caused the problem or wich version.
Try Spb Mobile Shell or Spb Pocket Plus for today screen. They are free to try.
It's a shame because I loved the looks of HTC programs.

Red phone button not functioning anymore

So all of a sudden (well likely not all of a sudden... I must have done something) the red phone "hang up" button doesn't do it's job anymore. It doesn't hang up when in a call, like it used to.
I think (stressing think, cuz I'm not quite sure) that this started when I uninstalled Resco Contact Manager but am not sure...
Anyway, wondering what I need to do to re-enable the functionality of that button.

have you eliminated the possibility of the button failing at a hardware level?
i mean to say, does the red key work to minimize all programs? does long pressing the red key work for whatever long press configuration you've set up?
if the ONLY behavior of the red key that is affected is hanging up a call, then don't fret...it most certainly is a software issue and it is likely someone will be able to help. but it would help the others to know whether or not this could be a hardware issue
for all software issues, the bottom line is that hard resetting solves the problem as a last resort

Did a soft-reset (for another reason) and now the key is working again. Minimizes programs, and ends calls.
Weird.

Let's bump this topic...
I Have the same issue... and only with a soft reset solves this. But after some time of use the issue comes back again and then I need to do another soft reset to solve the problem. I've been searching and experience with the phone and it seams to do this after using the sms feature...
Very odd...

Weird Kaiser Hardware Button Failure

Hi all, please can you help me with this!?
Firstly when my phone boots or is taken out of sleep mode it immediately activates voice record as if this button has been pressed. It then opens the dialler and types ‘EDFC’. If I open pocket word and then wake the phone up it also types ‘EDFC’ before doing the above.
My keyboard is not working and the only hardware buttons that function are the power button (only for a while), the camera button and the silver select button in the middle of the d-pad. The jog wheel and silver directional d-pad buttons occasionally come to life. The others don’t work (green call and red end buttons, ok, windows etc).
When I use the standard keyboard SIP on the screen the directional buttons and delete do not function?!
I’ve reverted to a stock ROM to make sure this isn’t the problem.
It appears as though my Kaiser thinks these buttons are being depressed, but I’ve checked them and they click normally and release when pressed (even though they don’t perform a function) so nothing is stuck down etc….
I’m going to use AE Buttons to try and unhinge the button functions for now, but it would be great if someone has any suggestions!!
Thanks in advance.

Update - AE Button won't unhinge the buttons or change their function to anything else (e.g. nothing). I can't stop this from happening every time the phone boots/wakes up!
Help!

Mine got the same symptoms last week except it opens quick something or other,and then the dialler dials 2547.The screen for my pin then comes up,which I can enter normally.Home screen fires up normally but the keyboard will not work or any buttons except the silver one in the middle.Searched a bit and this problem is very common although I cannot find a solution anywhere.Can someone please help

AE button didn't work?
When mine did that, I reset all the hardware buttons (not the keyboard, just the buttons reachable from the outside. A soft reset and viola!
That's the only solution I have. It's worked for me 2x.
Also try pulling the battery for 20 seconds or so and restarting. That has fixed my touchscreen not working after it gets spashed 3x. Yeah, my phone is old and abused, but keeps working.

Thanks for your replies - I've got Orange sending me another one in the morning now and sods law it's just stopped happening.... Taking the replacement anyway in case it happens again.
For my knowledge, how did you reset the buttons? I deleted some registry keys to completely stop them working (although I couldn't find the registry keys for the red and green buttons).
Searching on Google there are quite a few reports of this, but no one has ever posted the cause!

I am having the same problem... please help. My phone is going crazy. I did a hard reset but still didnt solve the problem....

I am also having this issue. Phone starts typing EDFC and then initiates the voice recorder. I reflashed various ROMs and regardless of what was flashed.. initially they appeared okay, then it started happening again. I also tried hard and soft resets. Nothng has worked so far.
I resorted to disabling the keys and some of the applications which I dont use which appear to be getting started/run (Voice recorder for one). So far I havent had the issue, knock on wood.
I think this is more than likely a hardware error. My tilt is actually pretty old so I wouldnt be surprised. If someone finds either the cause or a workable solution please post. Im trying to hold off until January when my contact expires to get a new HTC.

I searched and searched but found no solution for this and ended up getting the phone replaced.
HTC seemed to know nothing of such a problem....
Have you tried whacking it?!!?
Hope you get it sorted.

Hmm, yes, but I don't see how that helped my phone.
lol, all jokes aside, my friends, I ask in this thread as well,
what is causing this problem? I ran into this issue after ALL my buttons stopped working (except for the power).
I installed a new rom (I forget which one), and still nothing works except for power button.
It would be even better if someone knows the solution!

-Calling for Help-I'm still convinced it is a software/registry problem...
Okay, so there's no solution available for this weird problem of ours.
On the bright side, however, it is amazing that we can still use the phone, even after it requires servicing (some way or another). I have accepted this handicap that has been placed on my phone for now, simply hoping it will grow out of it one day.
But something isn't right. When I looked in the registry (trying to follow some directions I found within the wiki for when your keyboard STILL doesn't work properly), there was a discrepancy between what was supposed to be found in the registry and what was actually there. It wasn't that the values were wrong, it was the names of the values that were different. Why could this be?
Or even if you have moment of time, and you have an AT&T Tilt, and it works perfectly, maybe you could write up a run down of what you have hanging around in that section of the registry?
Hey, just so I can be sure, is there some place I can cross check what I have in my HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP with what is supposed to be there in a fully functioning AT&T Tilt?
