I have a tilt and for some reason the last couple of days it will just turn its self off. It has done it twice while I was in the middle of a call. Any know what could be causing this. ATT stock ROM... Second one already exchanged one with same problem, No Software installed....
Me too! I have the same issue. I tried to reset Tilt (from Setting options) and it did not solve the problem. I am seeking ways to solve this issue before I have to call ATT.
Please Help!!!
this started happening to me about 1 month ago, it's progressively gotten worse (phone turns off after 2min call even with full battery). At first I thought maybe the phone was overheating because immediately turning the phone back on after it shut-off during a call the phone would get half way through booting and then turn off again.
Luckily my phone is under warranty for another couple weeks (cutting it pretty close!) I called att and they think it's a battery problem. they sent me a new one... I just got it today. Going to do some heavy use and see if I can get it to turn off.
keep ya posted.
charged the new battery completely and then ran it all the way down testing it with phone calls / internet surfing / downloads... no crash or power off. looks like the battery was the problem.
This is my las try, I posted this message twice in the XDA forum.
I guess if no one having this issue I'll not bother folks with this again and will try to leave with it...
The problem goes like this, when I'm out of cellular reception area the phone shuts down and the only way to turn it back up is to remove and put back the battery.
I suspect this is some sort of strange power saving setting gone wrong.
Any idea on what can I do about it? Registry settings or something?
ROM: 1.93.831.1
Well, without knowing any better I've have to guess it was a problem with the Radio ROM. Are you using .08 or .11 radio version? If so, I'd try 0.5 - it seems to be the most stable for the majority of people here. I had heaps of problems (random freezes/crashes) when using 0.8 or 0.11 that forced me into a battery removal fix quite a few times...
If you've upgraded your Radio ROM (by itself) then most people suggest doing a hard reset afterwards, even though you don't *have* to, so make sure you try that...

It happes to my diamond too. Now i've got the lastest rom with latest radio (05) and in a week it happened only one time (before it happens a lot of time during a single day..)..
I've buy a new battery today just to be sure that it not a battery problem. I'll let you know in the next days.
By the way in my case i've see that the phone does not shut down when goes out of signal, but before shutting down i hear a short sound than the signal is missed and then the phone shutdown. Many times i need to wait a lot of minutes to power on the diamond. I've also try to froze the battery in this cases and like a kind of magic it's possibile to power on immediatly the baby. (this is why i've bought a new battery...)
I do also experience this problem, after upgraded my ROM to 1.93.831.1, when I'm out of cellular reception area the phone shuts down by itself.
I bought it to HTC service centre, they say no problem was found but they reload the Rom and replaced a new battery.
The problem still persist when i enter a no Network area, the phone automatically shut down again ...
Any idea on what can I do about it?
Please advise .....
Ummhh. Having the same problem here! Read a PDA Magazine and it says all bugs from Diamond have been removed and thats why Diamond 2 is released!
***BUMP***
Need a fix quick please!
@mod: please can you sticky this for a few day?
found the problem... sent it off two tmobile and they just took the handset not the battery...
they said they found no problem and made no changes.... i received the phone after 1 month and i put the battery in and it worked fine... used it with my car charger and started again so i left the battery out of the phone for 2 days then tried and works fine now.....
Hello guys!
I'm having some trouble with my HTC Touch Diamond. I am running the latest ROM, and the phone has worked perfectly since I've got it!
But one day it suddenly powered itself of during a phonecall and I was not able to power it on again. I removed the battery, put it in again, didn't work. Took out the battery and waited for almost 30 minutes, tried again and now it worked!
Since then the phone locks up in no systematical pattern (when I wake up in the morning it mybe locked itself, sometimes when I listen to the radio or typing an SMS..). Do you have any idea what the problem might be? Can't type in the serial number as I just have managed to turn it on.
What should be mentioned is the behavior when trying to start it. Either the phone gives no respons, or it "buzzez" and the display shows "touch diamond", but the rom version is not appearing down to the right. When it starts, it starts just as it should and no error messages is displayed.
I have not tried doing a hard reset yet, which I must say is considered the last option.
Have anyone experienced something like this? Or does anyone have a suggestion about what might be causing this?
Thanks on beforehand
Edit: have performed a hard reset now (did not format the 4gb). But the problem is not gone.. The phone just died while surfing. Now it locks at the green windows mobile-screen just before the homescreen loads (if it even boots at all...)
Please help anyone!
Don't know if this is a new problem or a different appearance for a common problem, but my kaiser has taken to switching off when I browse the web (on battery). On charger it's fine and I'm posting like that now.
I'll start at the beginning
For Most Web Browsing I Use Opera 9.51 Beta 15894 over the last fed weeks I had recieved a number of low space warnings and removed various programs to try and resolve it without success. I went to check the size of Opera's cache and found the Application data/Opera 9.5 Beta folder was full of Corrupted files marked at sizes ranging from 18Kb to 1.3Gb (unlikely since the drive is only 256Mb)
I tried various routes to delete these files, booting into safemode, downloading scandisk style tools (which despite advertising only scanned/repaired mmory cards.) In the end I simply renamed the folder and recreated the original Opera folder.
Since then, if I'm using the internet whilst not plugged in, the phone will turn off after 15 minutes. The browser in use doesn't matter what browser is in use (opera and skyfire have both done it)
Sometimes it then has dificulty turning back on, reaching the Windows Mobile Screen and shutting back down. But if you wait a few minutes it will turn on fully.
In some cases the battery is still full and can go a whole day of idling/using apps/making calls and texting without problems but will shut down again on using a web browser.
I'm usually quite good at isolating problems, but this has me stumped at first I though an Opera bug or Virus, but skyfire ruled out the former and I can't find any information on the existence of the latter. Does anyone have ideas/suggestions?
I don't understand why it only shuts down on battery power, that's a strange one, but I guess the first thing to do is sort your low memory problem.
Have you tried clearTemp?

This attached cab can let you have a look at what is taking up space.
Have you considered backing up and hard reseting?? That sorts out every problem!
At first I thought it was a battery/charging issue - which Opera certainly does affect. If I leave Opera running in the foreground during a charging cycle then a charge won't last more than a few hours - I think the browser regularly does refreshes powering everything on and using almost as much power as it's getting in to it. But the fact in this case that after finally getting it turned back on I have enough power to go the whole day suggests it's not that.
I saw the link for these utilities earlier today and will take a shot at using them. I worry however that these corrupted files showing a size in the Gb range may throw everything off and I won't find the real culprits.
With my two previous phones (HTC Wizard and Nokia 9300) Hard Resets left me with no end of problems - so whilst I have it in my mind it will be the very very last resort.
Well I hope one of the programs helps you find the problem.
As far as hard reseting goes, it should put your phone back to normal with everything cleared!? - a fresh start!!
If I didn't flash new ROMs so often I'd do this regularly anyway just to stop the phone lagging etc....
Before I hard reset I always think "if my phone got stolen what would I be gutted about losing" - I back those up and get it done!
I'm sure you can find some free backup software on a search, PIM backup is the obvious one.....
Good luck.
i had a siemens phone some years back that had a similar problem. when connected with a pc using a special data cable connection to the rs232 port and trying to sync, the screen dimmed and after a few seconds, the phone died
problem was, the battery was not charged when connected and was way to old and damaged and unable to handle the power consumption caused by the sync. the phone worked fine with a new battery.

@Operative1
I was thinking the same, especially when it started happening during phonecalls as well.
However yesterday I found that the file corruption problem had spread affecting several other apps as well as Opera. Pocket player was the worst affected.
So I went for a Backup and Hard Reset and it went off without incident. I've been intermitently testing Opera this morning and it hasn't done it yet.
I'm also know the corruption was affecting my registry, so I'm wondering if it was also affecting the charging/power management software.
I'll keep monitoring and report back if it re-appears.

Mine has now spread and affects everything, phone calls, texts, last night it went using Pocket Player. I've been considering fully discharging and recharging the battery but these intermittent cut-outs don't allow it to fully discharge.
I'm going to be buying a new battery soon in hopes it fixes it.
Wow thats not good im kinda concerned now.. don't have money to buy a new phone!! let me know if the battery sovles the problem.. i hope thats all it is... ThanksS!!

8 hours in with the new battery and no problems. I've upgraded to a 2600mA one so I'm hoping the extra life will allow me a full charge/discharge cycle to prevent it happening again. I'll also be disabling charging duuuring internet connection sharing.
Sweet so no more turning off while browsing the web??? Where did you get your battery from?? Thanks!
A new battery would be the only fix for this. I had the same problem a while back with mine and I took a volt meter to the old battery and at full charge it was only out 3.6~V instead of the 4.2 so when something like a data connection was going the phone didn't have enough power to stay on and it shut off. it got so bad at one point that I couldn't even boot the phone without plugging it in.
anyone can resolve that problem?

A new battery fix my tilt problem
I replace the battery of my tilt on August for this
http://www.smavtronics.com/1600mah-l...lt-series.html
$18 dls shipped.
And since then has been working like a champ, no more reboots or going off, I have been using the Skyfire a lot in the last two days with the normal phone calls and the battery is still at 36%
This has been the best $18 dls that I have invest.

i try 'clear storage' in the settings, put 1234, after that i install the HardSPL, put a new room and new radio version.
hard reset its different?
how i do this?
sorry for the question, when i install a new room i do a hard reset follow this steps:
d. NOTE: After you flash the ROM, when you get to the whole "Please tap the
screen to begin setting up your Windows-Mobile based device", hard reset by
holding down the two soft keys while pushing the stylus into the reset hole.
You should get to a white-colored screen. Just follow the directions on that
screen and then reboot. This fixes many issues, and is also known to make your ROM perform at 100%.
my last choise is buy a new battery!
travelingsurfer, the battery do you buy is 1600mah?
i question this because my frind have a kaiser and i change my battery with him, but my problem not solved!
I replaced it with the exact same brand/model that was in there to begin with. it is 1350mah
Once I can get it to turn on all the way again, i'm going to backup everything and try the hard reset.
Help!! My XT has been running fine since I got it last September however since yesterday my device just shuts down when connected to network. Not a restart I actually have to physically turn it back. My device runs fine in airplane mode but as soon as I turn airplane mode off 3 seconds later off.
I am running a locked boot loader with non rooted 141 loaded through PCC so completely stock setup.
Is this looking like a hardware issue possibly or will reloading the stock firmware fix this?
Thanks

A quick update:
Issue sorted its self out in the evening, Managed to get conected to a network but only with data off, by the morning all was working fine again.
BUT
Later on saturday I had exactly the same cycle of issues again.
Device was fine all day yesterday YAY
However today has seen a return to being dead.
The difference being I didnt drive anywhere yesterday along with this rareity known as "British Summer". We have had some very warm days of recent and I am assuming the shutting down is a fail safe as the device gets too warm.
I guess there is nothing I can do but ride this out. Given we only have this sort of weather for about a week or so a year(if at all).
How do you guys who live in the more consistently warm climates cope with this device which clearly has heat issues?
Issue is getting much worse.
All last night it was out of action worrying as I use it as an alarm so ran it over night in airplane mode.
This morning working fine but now turns off everytime I send a text message.
I had an issue similar to this but it was whenever i connected to a particular WiFi network. For me changing the WiFi channel worked.

No issues linked to WiFi seen here just when connecting to network.
issues have only come up since I updated to 141. everyone says this one prevents these issues which I never saw on earlier softwares.
I have done a repair through PCC and will see how that goes now.
Ok, device is not fixed by the repair.
I am no longer having the device randomly shut down completely but the the device is restarting. It has happened 4 times in the last hour.
1- As soon as sent a text.
2- Moving some apps around in the draw
3- Sending another text
4- unlocking phone
Does anyone have any ideas at all what is wrong with my device. Running smoothly for so many months and then now phone is becoming completely unusable.
Not sure if related but issues dont seem to arise when on charge and issues today only started once batter got below 60%.
