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.

Stuck at boot screen

I'm stuck at the "Tap the screen to set up your Windows Mobile-based device." The screen on my HTC 8125 has been acting flakey... working sometimes, but mostly not. A friend thought he would help out, and thought hard reseting the device might help. Now I'm stuck at the tap this screen message, only the touch screen isn't working and is not accepting the tapping. Am I completely outta luck without a phone now?? At least before I could make and answer phone calls. Now, NOTHING. Just this screen. IF there is any way around this that anyone knows of, PLEASE let me know!!
Thank you

I think you have a hardware problem
Maybe the flex
maybe the microcontroler
maybe the rom Try a new again instead the one you have
for skip this screen alignment try to search on the forum there are many ways
I simply conect it to activesync even if it is stucked at this screen it syncs with your pc via activesync... then go to explore...Windows folder.... startup... and delete the file called welcome.lnk then softreset.

Yeah my wizard is stuck to @ tab the screen etc.
I can't connect to activesync becuase activesync does not detect the phone.
Nevermind!

thanks!

1. Do a soft reset. (small hole on the right side)
2. When screen is black hold camera button, this will boot into bootloader
3. Connect USB cable (USB will show over left softkey)
4. Try to flash a new ROM.
I did this process a few times with different roms.. the best I had was using the HardSPL process, and then the NBD_v8.3_8MB rom.

what did you do *before* your diamond stopped turning on?? unless you had a completely unpredicted system meltdown of your diamond for injecting it with super high voltage. it is rare for it to not power off unless you did something ... so please elaborate so we can assist better.

Ok, yesterday i use the phone like anothe normal day, in the night i turn off the phone, and in the morning, when i tried to turn on, i have this problem, for example, when a tried to do a soft, hard reset, the screen is in black, when a conect the phone to the usb the screen is black, is, i left the phone alone, in 3 minutes the black screen again, i don´t know why.

any LED activity when plugged into USB?

I think it is a major manufacture problem
I had the same problem, taking out the battery waiting a while and inserting it back, will solve the problem for some time but it will happen again.
Finally I sent it to the HTC support center.
I don't understand why HTC didn't recall.
If you'll search this forum you'll see the same problem in different stages, some times it's a blank screen but the phone will ring and some are just freeze.

Hi, I've had my Diamond for about a month soon and it started earlier this week by not wanting to come on at all. Been taking out the battery for a few days but eventually got fed up and did a hardware reset tonight. Not long after that it just suddenly turned itself off and I couldn't get it back on again. I thought I'd pack it back into the box it came in and send it back tomorrow and took out the sim card. After that it came to life again.
Happened to get a call after that and that call was suddenly disconnected without any reason.
So I am not very happy with this phone at the moment. Would appreciate any advice or if you know for sure it can't be sorted maybe I should send it back and ask for another one?

Nothing, but one time the pc detect the phone, but later nothing.

No Led activity either on mine when it went dead.

When the Phone goes dead, try cooling the phone down as much as possible, and try starting it up again.....
There is a problem with the HTC Diamond in that it can cook itself (excessive heat), due to the auto over temp function crashing and not switching off the phone..... (That's what I have been told at least...)
I know over around 5 Diamonds so far that have had this issue, where the symptoms slowly get worse...
Have a look at this thread....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2905775#post2905775
PLEASE P.M. me if you have any of the symptoms described in the thread...
I have been TRYING to get my Diamond fixed under warranty now for 2 months with little success... And I kinda need to know how wide spread this problem is to proceed any further.

could not turn on after blank screen ...
Hello,
I've had the same issue as rmorera, and after I hard reseted the phone all went o.k.. BUT after I reinstalled part of the small apps I use, the phone started to go off again. So, the problem seems to be in the software ...
I believe the cause might be the SRS WOW which I use. I installed the .cab, then the .reg file provided (ufortunatelly I don't remember from which thread I got the files ...). And shortly after, the phone stopped working. I uninstalled the software, and now it works! Could it be that the SRS WoW did this?

I tried to reinstall the SRS WoW and I found that if enabled for "Internal (Stereo)" instead of "Headphones" it gets my phone shut when the WM blanks the screen. If I select the "Headphones" options the issue seems to disappear.
Still, the SRS WoW damages the volume buttons action, but I think this issue is on another thread ...

Is my Diamond dead?

Hey everybody,
I was going out yesterday and I was in a bar when I tried turning on the screen of my Diamond, but nothing happened. I wasn't able to turn on the screen at all. So I pushed the soft-reset button, but again nothing seemed to happen. I didn't think too much of it, but this morning it still doesn't do antyhing. I managed to find out the following: it does seem to respond to volume keys being pressed; because I can hear the sounds and it will vibrate when I hold it down. The light thing seems dead, because it doesn't light up when I'm charging it. Also, I'm still able to set up ActiveSync connection and even flash different ROMS.
Any hints on what to do here? My device doesn't have ensurance or anything, and it was hard-SPL'd + SIM unlocked, so will guarantee cover this? (Device is not older than 6 months)
Kind regards,
ToxicWasted

Seems like a hardware problem, so you have to send it on guarantee but be sure to flash stock ROM and SPL back. If you need to use the screen of your phone try a program called My Mobiler.

Buttons Not Working and severe battery Drain

Hi hope someone can help. Over the weekend my TD2 started playing up. All of the hardware buttons apart from the on/off button have stopped working. I also notice that if I turn the screen off with a short tap of the on/off button, after a few seconds it comes back on again. All touch screen functions are ok. It also appears to be draining the battery very quickly, to the extent that fully charged at bedtime (no bluetooth or wifi on and a stable 3-4 bar signal) it will be comppletely drained by morning. As far as I am aware the phone has not gotten wet at all.
I have also re-installed the office HTC rom, which made no difference
Any ideas??

So you reinstalled the stock rom and did a hard reset?
You can try Tarkim's Keyboard controller and see if your hardware keys can be mapped to a different function.
That would help eliminate hardware vs software issues.

I have the same problem. Also my backlight keeps working and won't go off. Can't perform a hard reset because my volume buttons(and all other hardbuttons accept the on/off) aren't working.
Searched for the solution but can't find it anywhere. Who can help me?

Try clear storage app to HR.

Thanks for your reaction.
Yesterday I managed to put an official ROM on my phone.(latest from HTC site).
Problem only got worser. Phone gets complety stuck(directly after boot) in the volume screen. Sometimes its flashes back to the normal screen but only for 1 second. Buttons still aren't working so can't do anything with my phone right now( not even the hard reset methode you told me).
Started to think that this is really some hardware issue. Can't remember that water got in my phone or the phone felt really hard. Any solutions maybe?
Otherwise I think I just go to the store.

One last thing you can try is a Task29 explained here.
Use your official rom (right click on .exe and extract the RUU_Signed.nbh and place in task29 folder, then connect device in Bootloader mode and run the Task29.exe. Follow the instructions in the link.
