Diamond freezes couple times a day..... - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi I've looked around and wasn't able to find an answer.
I've had the Diamond for about a week and it seems to freeze on me atleast a couple times a day. The only way i can get it back is if i take off the battery cover and do a soft reset from there.
If someone tell me where i can find the answer to this fix or even if someone can tell me how to fix this problem i would really appreciate it.
Also would this problem stop if i flashed it with a new rom? and if yes and someone knows which rom is the best for the Telus network, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks for any help at all guys!

Hi, have you noticed any particular patterns for the crashing? Any particular software being used?
By the way, "brick" tends to mean permanently dead, for example after a bad flash:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brick_(electronics)

Well actually nothing in particular and plus i have lots of ram to spare as well when it does this. Like anywhere from 120mb to 150mb free ram.
not sure if anyone else is having this problem, i mainly hate the freezing because of the soft reset button being under the battery cover, was so much easier on my old titan

i'd try a hard reset. i'm assuming you know what the entails. usually fixes strange issues for me when a solution is not immediately available. but someone more brainy will have a solution for you later. i'm not at all familiar with cdma diamonds.

When I first got my Telus Diamond it was crap, the interface was slow, tf3d was unreliable, playing mp3's was painful to say the least and the battery life was horrendous. I later flashed to a custom ROM and will never go back. Custom ROMS will improve everything from the performance to the freezing and even improve your battery life. As for which ROM I would suggest. Right now I'm on Juicy 3.2 but I have played around with a number of others including MightyStableRom or MSR, last I tried was 2.2 or 2.3 can't remember. Really it is a personal preference whose ROM you go with. The two I named you can't go wrong with. Once you try it though trust me you will be hooked. I've flashed my Diamond like 20+ times already, so much fun and great improvements. Let us know if you have anymore questions!

Thanks a lot guys!
Could anyone point me to a thread where it tell me how to flash my CDMA diamond step by step?
I'm willing to try anything because i love the phone but hate the freezing and the crappy Batt. life.

Hey majorassface, since your with telus and you have flashed your phone numerous times now, do you know where i can download all the telus stock stuff like the spl, radio rom, & stock rom?
So if for any reason i need to take it back to telus for repairs i can flash it back.
Thanks again!

Please HELP.... FAULTY phone

I have a Tilt, with the newest cooked hyperdragon rom! I love my phone and have loved this forum from day one.
I have put many roms on my phone since I got it about a year ago. I have probably put a total of 20 different roms on there. And now I am starting to think that my phone has had enough.
Since this last rom and the one currently before this one have started acting "tweaky" per say! I know of course the phone does not have a virus, but is acting like a virus would.
FOR EXAMPLE, when I open a new window part of the window before it is is still present like lets say the bottom bar of the home page or the Top bar!
It's also acting very slow at times.
I know that I can do the good ol' hard reset. But at this particular point I don't know if that is going to work because I had done it already and It didn't fix the problem. And unfortanuately I have some things on my phone that I had purchased and have no way of saving. If you have a good idea, maybe a program where I can clean out the phone, or perhaps suggestions on what program etc.. might be causing this! Thank you so much in advance!
Try flashing to one of the HTC or att roms to see what happens.

Here are some simple questions..........
Did this happen right after installing this rom? Did you have the rom on there a while before it started? did you install any other software between installing the rom and when the buzzing noise started?
Have you tried hardresetting ? ( complete wipe and reinstall of current OS )
Have you tried other spl's? ( as the spl controls things on a hardware level?)
Honestly, to me as a hardware tech, it sounds as though its hardware related. I had a backlight inverter on my laptop cause an odd buzzing sound, but ... maybe its not that...
poor I tried to port hard spl 3.56 but to no avail.
I wish if someone else can help me out. This is really getting very difficult for me to listen to calls with this buzz sound in the back. Kindly help me someone. someone said its a problem of moisture but I am not sure if it is. Bro kindly suggest me if it is the case.
Not much any of us can do at this point -- it sounds like a hardware problem.
Send it in for service.
anybody had this problem. Poor the service company is closed for few days.
I hope someone can help me out with his experience. I wonder if the moisture thing is correct.
How about you answer some of those questions. That guy is trying to help you.

He obviously cannot speak English and is posting through google translate, but still some details would be helpful.
I think the Humming (Bee like noise) is to do with the way the backlight works, try turning the brightness all the way up! It mihgt eliminate it. Mine has always made that noise but since it got replaced (broken usb port) it does not make it as loud much to my relief!
Find some reason to get it replaced

Ans:not specifically as I do Rom flashing every other day & there was no problem after that ever.
Have you tried hardresetting ? ( complete wipe and reinstall of current OS )
Ans:Yes I tried doing that but to no avail.
Have you tried other spl's? ( as the spl controls things on a hardware level?)
Ans: yes i did as i mentioned my last post. but didn't work either.

Thanks mate for your concern.
but do you have any personal experience? or someone in your friend circle had this? i never seen anyone with this annoying problem. some mechanic said its a usual problem of the chip of every flip style phones.
@others
I am afraid if I gave you an impression of being non-english speaker. Kindly stay to the point. I am more concerned about solving my problem rather than showing my english language skills.
Hope some solutions from my friends are on their way.
--edited---
hey chumaleyex,
Brother I am please to see you taking so much interest in this thread but would you care to suggest me something constructive. I am very well proficient with software thing but zero about hardware so felt like asking. But it seems you are more interested in something else but not the issue which I want to get addressed. Kindly give your valuable views so I could see the problems eradicated. The service center of HTC in my city is close for 1week so have to do something with my friends help on xda only.
hope someone I see who had faced this problem or someone in the mechanical field. Thanks allover.

{roblem with lack of sound, PDAcorner ROM

I go skiing tomorrw so i need to try and get this problem fixed asap. I recently installed PDAcorner V19 and i adore the rom to bits. The only problem is randomly the sound will cut off. Calls are silent, txt messages/calls dont ring and adjusting the sound has no effect. It takes a soft reset in order to cure it, then after a few hours it goes back to being silent. I originally did a hard reset but it didnt seem to have any effect on it. I am on T-mobile, in the UK using radio 17.09.19.
Does anyone have any idea what could bec causing this? I pm'd the creater of this ROM but havnt heard back yet and i am really hoping to get it fixed before i go abroad. Does anyone have any advice?
thanks guys
(i have searched & googled as much as i can, but didnt find anything of use)
edit; excuse the typo in the subject, if i mod could adjust it id be gratefull!
You can try to flash a different radio to see if that helps or a different rom. I have that rom and do not think that anyone else is have those sorts of problems.
I had the same problem a while back and tried several different roms and radios. Nothing worked. I think it has to do with Voice Command and or bluetooth. Then all of a sudden it went away. Here is the thread discussing it, to see if it sounds like your problem.

W 6.5 Roms: Keyboard Problem

Hi guys, i'm using on my x1 windows mobile 6.5 rom since first beta. I have tried alla kind of rom. As far as i know i have always had a problem that create me some trouble. The x1 hardware keyboard seems laggy and very slow. Also FN key take a lot of pressures to activate. Someone else is having the same problem? Just to know if it's mine broken. I don't want to go back to 6.1 to try.
Thanks

I've had a similar issue to this too since using the 6.5 roms, also along with the lag it double inputs the character selected sometimes. If anyone knows a fix fort his would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Is it laggy and slow in every program? For me it works very well. Only thing is my m-key is kinda broken, not a software issue i figure though.

I have experienced same issues like you did. The Fn key works only when I put lot of pressure on it (didn't succeed to determine which is the most suitable position) so, I've been forced to find other alternatives (soft keyboards). But, what's important is to find out if this is a hardware problem or is simply related to the new ROM installments which I play with...
Any opinion/suggestion is more then welcome...
Thanks
It's not a wm 6.5 related problem... there're tons of guys having this problem, and soon they're going to increase, cause it seems to get worse with time...
my keyboard has reached an unusable state, and the left half of the keyboard type twice or nothing.
The first thing you can try is to longer the time for input replication... if it doesn't work, then send it to SE, and hope to receive it back in a little time
I'm waiting to find a good alternative to X1, then send it to assistance, and when it comes back sell it... never buying SE products anymore
searching with google get many results... this is the first:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=489331
oh let me tell you something real that is happening.
1.keyboard is crap if u dont use the buttons daily ,you will have this problem(i have it too)
2. same as my camera button( i press half way to auto focus and then press it fully to take a picture. but now it auto focus and when i press fully,the camera will auto focus again and shoot the pictures )
i dunno what is wrong with X1 ,but htc has make a bull**** things for SE.(happy that SE decided to leave them).
ok so seem to be an hardware problem; i'll dismount mine x1 to see if there's dust or something else under the keyboard.

I reached to the same conclusion like you did. Seems like most of the SE X1 keyboards have problems, as well like the battery life (btw, last night, in stand-by mode, my X1 battery drained out completely without having any process/program running)...
Speaking about SE X1 in general, yes could be taken as a kind of failure but we don't have to forget is made by HTC. So, they could be blamed as well for this lack of success!
Or maybe there was also a sabotage around, who knows?
time to get X2

Very Frustrating Problem - Please help me!!

Hey everyone,
My problems consists of:
- The screen/touch is off. I've done Screen Alignment, it works for a couple hours or so then it just starts to have a mind of its own again
- When I slide the keyboard out, the screen does not rotate, it's just frozen in portrait mode. However, responds to the keys I push on the keyboard, I've tested it by texting someone.
The ROM I was using was a Generic NAM R3A WM6.1 when this problem occured, tried to re-flash with the same ROM, no luck and finally a custom one (Touch X 10.8) and unfortunately, still no luck.
I've never dropped the phone or done any modifications to it. Am I doomed and will have to send the phone in for repairs or is there another way to fix all this?
Thanks

If I were you, I'd have it back in the shop in no time. But you will need to put back the original rom, otherwise your guarantee will be gone.
Good luck!
Don't forget to revert the SPL since you flashed it to hard SPL.
If You make a new topic then it's pointless to use not at all informative cries for help. It does not say anything about the problem you are having.
The title should say something about the issue so people who know something about notice it and can offer to help and people having the same issue later can find this topic.
Sorry, I'm new to this message board and not really around either.
