Hi,
Has anyone had the same problem as this?
When sliding out the HW keyboard, the GSM signal always seems to disappear and then when sliding back again the signal returns to its previous state.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Cheers
That's a weird one ...never had that myself (just tried again before posting of course)
Is it the signal itself, or the icon / indication of signal? Just wondering if a custom icon set might have something to do with it?
Edit: just noticed you're on a custom ROM ...definitely worth asking the question to the "Touch-IT Experience 4" gang specifically (am on stock ROM2AA myself)
Is the signal completely as cannot send SMS when in landscape, occasionally it decides to come back but at a very low level.
I'm running itje's Touch-IT V4 which has the FLNix custom icons, but I can confirm that this also happens on a completely stock ROM when I first purchased my handset.
I'll wait and see if anyone else has any suggestions.
Mine used to loss signal on keyboard mode, not anymore after the second update of rom
I tend to lose wifi signal when I pull out the keyboard, but only if I have low signal to begin with.
i started noticing this too :S its annoying and weird

**(SOLVED)**I have a slight problem that started recently with my phone, and was hoping someone would know a possible solution or have heard of something similar.(before i go on, i have searched around the forum for a while, and saw no issue that is very similar)
Firstly, i have the stock htc/at&t rom, stock radio, basically everything out of the box aside from a bunch .cabs and games.
Basically, on my today screen, in the top right corner it displays the network coverage (i.e. 3G, HSPDA, EDGE, etc...), the volume setting of my phone(ring, vibe, silent), the battery icon, and the task manager.
Currently, the battery status indicator says full, however when i touch it and the battery power remaining screen comes up it shows 55%.
What i have figured out has happened is that the battery icon in the top right will display whatever charge the battery is at when i turn on my phone, for example if my phone is plugged into a charger and i turn on the phone, until i reset my phone it will display it as being plugged in. So while once i click on it - it will show me the correct battery power remaining, the actual icon itself is not working properly.
[its not so much the that it not working affects me very much, its the fact that it should be working and isnt is quite irritating]
currently the .cabs i have installed are:
HTC home customizer
Pandora Touch 3G dialer
A_C S2U2 (slide to unlock)
pocketmax quote today
jizy HTC action screen
HTC HTC Plus
Spb Time
HTC HTC Home
Of those, i have narrowed it down to probably being cause by the Slide to Unlock program, 3G dialer, or the HTC home customizer, but these are just guesses based on the time i installed the .cabs(usually do a few at a time), and when i noticed the problem started occuring.
As well i might mention that the .cabs i installed might not be the most up-to-date, so if anyone knows that an older version of a cab i have produced a similar problem, than it might be because i have that older version. like i said i have searched for a solution to this problem, but haven't had any successful results.
thanks.

did you ever install the battery icon installs from the thread below?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=289003
also you can check this registry key...
HKLM/securoty/resover/bitmaps
If you have 2 keys in there titled "BatteryIconIdStart" and "BatteryIconLevels", that could also be the issue.
Let me know if you have either of these keys in your registry.
Solved
tnx for the suggestions guys, but i found the problem to be in the Touch 3g dialer(not sure exactly where).
Uninstalled and problem is fixed.
So a word of warning, Don't Install The Touch Dialer. lol.

I am having the same problem... just uninstaller the touch dialer, but unfortunatley, did not seem to fix the problem. I'll try reinstalling the battery status icon's mentioned above as well (I had previously installed them) in the morning... but for now need to get to sleep. I would like to know if anyone else using the touch dialer is having this issue though.
Hello,
I've been having a problem with a few of the custom builds (Timor, AthineOS, CellPro Evo), and one problem I've noticed with each of the ones I've used is that when I get a text it doesn't notify until I wake the screen back up. Once I do that it vibrates and rings, but its up 30min after I got the text. Is this a known problem with a fix or am I better off sticking with a stock ROM?
Thank You
Funny you mention this, because I'm having the same problem. I thought it may have been a tweak I'd done and was going to do a hard reset today.
The only cab I've installed is Microsoft MyPhone. And had to edit the reg to allow the changing of the notification light timing in the Sounds & Notifications settings.
Do you know if this happens before you've made any changes to settings or installed any software on the phone? I don't recall having any problems like that myself with Timor installed, but I'm also not sure I received a text in that time. I haven't tried the other ROMs you listed.
It seemed to happen after I edited the reg settings.
Doesn't seem to be a constant occurance though. I happened to me 12 hours ago, even after a soft reset. But now I just sent a test message to myself, and all is ok... weird
Well I've regularly installed My Phone, Marketplace, Bing, Groovefish, and MP3 Trimmer, but I'd rather not delete and hard reset everything to do a test if someone knows a fix
I haven't had this issue...I am using the Valkrie Firestorm 5 and even when my phone is sleeping my phone vibrates as I get SMS messages and emails...
Well I have hard reset and held off installing using the My Phone. Everything seems well with recieving on time...but now the screen turns on everytime i get a message. It didn't used to do that and I find it quite annoying..I looked around my settings and Advanced Config and couldn't find anything.
It happens in the stock HTC rom too.
It normally doesn't happen if you come out of the text messages and go back to the home screen after you reply to someone. It's a really annoying bug
Me too...
I thought it was the result of all the hacking, tweaking and breaking I've been doing on this flash since I've been using it as a "scratch pad" but the problem you are all describing sounds identical.
I will also second the Home screen suggestion. Hit 'End' after you are done messing with the phone to go back to the Home screen. There is definitely a notification bug related to not alarming/vibrating when not on Home screen.
Though I have observed this issue, this does not completely explain my problems. Sometimes I don't actually even receive the SMS or MMS until the next day or after rebooting my phone! Most of the time it's fine though. I'm going to do a clean flash and see if that gets rid of that issue.
Same Here
I have run across the same problem with a number of the cooked ROMs. I never really noticed the problem with the stock ROM though. In my experience some of the cooked ROMs are having a problem handling the text messaging. I have over 3000 text msgs in my backup and as soon as I try to view an older text, the systems tend to lag and freeze up to the point that I need to soft-reset. Im using Athine right now and so far it has handled the text msging just fine without freeze or lag, but it also seems to have the same notification delay bug that the other ROMs have.

Yeah I'm familiar with that bug. But I go back to the home screen 99% of the time then shut the screen. I'll get a message and the LED will start blinking, but only when I turn the screen back on will it ring and vibrate.
Same problem here with the cell pro rom

I have the problem with almost all of the ROM. Does anyone know if it could be a result of not using the right radio?
I could be wrong.. but I don't think it has anything to do with the radio. There doesn't seem to be any problem is receiving the message from the carrier, it's more-so the OS not notifying. This has only happened to me since trying the new WM 6.5.5 builds with Sense 2.5. Previous to these builds I have never had any issues, and only used EnergyROM with a COM2 build, and Sense 2.1

Im not sure about all the technical stuff your talking about...I just know that on almost every ROM I flash, when the phone goes to sleep, they seem to not do anything. Its only when I wake it up do I receive text messages, notifications and the weather doesnt update on its own in the prescribed time its supposed to according to the settings I have selected.
The radio version may affect the quality of your reception. So if you have no reception then that will obviously delay texts getting through, and stop you being able to get to the weather servers. But I can't see why it should have anything to do with delayed notification of texts that are already on your phone.
I realise this might not help you much, but on my EnergyROM (see my signature for full details), my phone gets texts fine when it's asleep.
The weather isn't designed to get automatically updated when your phone is asleep though. There was a recent thread on how to change the registry to make it do so, if you haven't done that then your weather stuff may well be acting correctly.

WHY DONT YOU JUST USE A ENERGYROM????? I dont have any issues with those roms and i just updated to the .88 radio. no issues as of yet.
an article on WMPowerUser, here, tells of 9 issues that have come up with the Mango update.
i.e. decrease keyboard accuracy, battery not updating, etc.
are any HD7/HD7S users experiencing any of the mentioned issues?
experiencing any other issues not mentioned? if so, what?

I dont have any have the problems mentioned although I had the beta unofficially.
I guess people need to realize its always good to full wipe/hard reset a phone after every update and this is true for android phones as well and also a couple of restarts to a phone for the updates to sink in.
I feel the keyboard is faster as well and the voice thing works you need to enable it under settings to get it to work, same goes for attentive app which is now in settings by default.
The only problem I had was with the HTC hubs which wouldn't load or update and the hard reset solved those issues.
I think MS has done an amazing Job updating so many different devices from different manufactures so beautifully, its not like just one iphone from apple.
I wish people always do a hard reset / reboot phone before posting problems as these solve a lot of issues just like computers a restart is needed when installing new software
yes. too true, too true.

Not a battery updating issue, but just a worst battery than nodo.
Bonus:

battery. a different Radio could possibly help with this problem.
reception. have you tried any other Radios? link in my signature.
Keyboard disappearing...yes.
Also, sometimes the screen flickers when U press the Windows key.
I am talking about the accent colours of HTC Radar...Grey and all...
i experienced 1 or more of the bugs, erhaps the most serious one is after updating to mango , i couldnt find the linkedIn and twitter options in accounts!
did a hard reset and all came back
HTC released an update few days ago , since then no problems
Best phone i've owned build wise but i'm getting some strange problems that only restarting the phone sorts out.
I completely lose my signal and even turning airplane mode on and off, When you drag down i usually get EE as im on orange UK but it will say 0000.
Also i've had it when its constantly searching for gps even though i have no apps open or anything that would require GPS in the running apps tab.
The losing the signal is more annoying as i went a full day without realising so when i restarted my phone ide missed out on important texts and phone calls.
Other niggles is that it gets bloody hot when playing games and its got sense but i can live with the latter lol
But still the best phone i've owned.
Anyone else having any of these issues?
Haven't had any GPS problems, but I generally have it switched off unless I'm planning on using maps. The signal thing is weird - I haven't experienced it on the One myself but I have had similar problems in the past on other phones with Orange/EE, almost like the phone gets confused when it has no signal for a long time (which always happens at my parents' house when I'm visiting). Usually took a hard reset to sort out on my Desire HD, but not sure if it's the same as what you're talking about.
The one thing that does worry me is how hot the phone gets playing games, have to admit it's put me off a bit and I've been finding I've been playing games more on my iPad as a result. I prefer this new version of Sense to stock Android though hehe so no complaints about that!
Also Google now *****es about location services switched off yet when i go into it its on, this might be why my GPS seems to be always on.
UPDATE:
Seems im not the only one having GPS issues and it seems google now is the culprit: http://forums.androidcentral.com/an...now-keeps-saying-my-location-service-off.html
sorry for linking to another forum.
I am having really bad issues with GPS too. Sometimes it takes ages to get a signal and when it does it looses it again just when I'm getting to a difficult area to navigate....
Likewise I'm on T-Mobile (EE) uk and I too loose the signal where I have to reboot the phone. I just think its T-Mobile being crap in my area. Mostly it's ok though.

Hey there!
As of recent though that said I have never paid much attention till recently I have noticed my C6903 has a wierd issue mostly with LTE and to some extent 3G.
The issue being a signal drop, not to the point of losing the signal entirely but I can say put my phone on my desk and get -100db of LTE signal then turn on Airplane Mode wait a few seconds then turn it off and the signal will improve to around -92db then after between 30 seconds to a minute it drops back to -100db. all this without the phone moving at all
I'm on a locked bootloader and on the current latest version of official ROM and the Baseband that goes along with it, It is rooted and has Dual Recovery installed as well as Xposed however I am not using the RadioActive bug fix since that doesnt seem to affect my handset.
I was considering replacing my SIM with the network but have my doubts that would fix anything, if anyone has any idea whats going on that would be awesome!
Cheers
