Help plz. Im having a strange prob. It seems to happen about every 24 hours.everything runs fine then all the sudden things start to stop working my program files just go away it happens with diff roms its happened when iv not instaled anything and when i have a bunch of things instaled. Its like somthing is just eating everthing. And if i do a soft reset when it restarts its like i just did a hard reset and its a 1st run. Im totaly lost
any ideas plz
bump back up
are your programs installed on internal storage or on sd card?
happened to me that programs installed on sd card "disappeared" when power management disabled the sd card slot...
just a thought.
nope everything is instailed in phone mem i dont even have to instail anything its happened 3 times today its like something eats the files even system files just vanish and im forced to soft reset but when the phone restarts from its soft reset it is just like i did a hard reset and have to wait for it to set back up
I am afraid that there is something seriously wrong with your phone if this happens. Can't be a virus, since it happens also straight after a "hard = soft reset". I am afraid your internal memory is damaged by something, or was never right to start with. Bring it to service.

Ive been having some problems with my tmo wing lately in terms of extreem lagging. Ever since I have used pocket mechanic to defrag my storage card, everything went to sh1t on my phone. I cant boot my phone with my storage card in the slot or it will just reset when it gets to the green windows mobile background. And most importantly, whenever I open "Messages" on my phone, it takes honestly 5 or more minutes to open, then another 5 to open sms/mms then another 5 mins to open/reply to a sms. My program memory is usualy always ATLEAST over 10MB and I had batery status running and while i was opening these windows at the task bar it showed it was using 0% or minimal processor usage, so im assuming that it's not executing properly... does someone have a fix for this? can someone help me out? because to temporarely fix the issue i have to reboot the phone... thanks!

Here's something you should try.
Remove the card then insert it into a card reader at your computer. Copy everything on it and then format the card using FAT16.
Now back-up everything possible on the phone. (in your case this could take a while). Place the back-up file on the computer, if you use the card for back-up reformat it again after you complete the process. Then hard reset the phone and check to see if it still has this problem. Place the empty card inside the phone and try to copy some stuff to it. If everything is ok, restore your files using that back-up you just made. Check to see if the problem manifests now. If it does, clearly there is something rong with your program configuration and you may want to reinstall all your programs manually.
If the phone still runs slow after a master reset you should try to rewrite the phone's ROM as a last resort option. (your back-up copy woun't work after this). If it still runs slow even after this, then... well that's bad. It's something I call "the dead slow card problem". I've tried to find a fix for this for about 3 years on different htc products, but with no succes. The good part is that there's a very small chance this can happen in the normal every day usage. Try this things first and tell me what happens.
wow... Before i even attempt this surgery, i just want to say thank you very much for taking the time to write all this. it's very appreciated.
Before i try all this, i got a few Qs.
What do i use to back up my stuff on my device? or do i just copy paste important stuff... if so what about extensions and associated files...
And what involves a hard reset? does it effect the registry tweaks that i have done? in the end... what will be reset?

I was just listening to some music in S2P and then a message comes up on the screen and says I got low memory left, so i checked and it's only 0.09MB, i took a soft reset to check if it helped, it didn't.
It was 45MB earlier today, only stuff i installed is the new S2P for diamond and wifi and wlan button from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398050
And i installed it all on the 4gb drive not on the phone.
So i lost 45 mb without saving anything on the phone, what could have happened? :S
Please help me with this, I really dunno what's wrong.
Have a look at your PIM.vol
I and other peple I know have all had problems with it becoming absolutely massive.
It's in the root I think
Rory
I just tried to soft reset it and now i cant turn it on, it freezes when im about to write my pin code :S
If i need to do a hard reset, can i do when its turned off as well, and could someone say how i should do it. And what do you think could have caused this? I was only using s2p while it happened.
Check PM
Hi,
In the past couple of weeks, i have had to perform a number of soft resets as my Kaiser was hanging. I didnt think much of it, putting it down to probably low memory.
However today it hung again whilst in IE and so i did a soft reset. Then it would boot only to the 'smart mobility' screen showing
R 1.27.12.11
G 22.45.88.07H
D 1.81.00.00
I started to get worried as it would not proceed past that screen. I tried several more soft resets and then decided to remove my 2gb microSD card, which helped it boot to WM6.
It would not show that the phone was connected to the network although the wifi was connected ok. I tried disabling the phone in the comm manager but that made no difference.
I then removed the SIM and it recognised that it was missing and shut down in 10 seconds.
I re-insterted the sim, but it still saw no network.
Then a number of other errors came up, such as quickdial.exe is missing, as well as a few others.
When i inserted the MicroSD back in it started to load and most recently 'should we disable phone alarm' at next start. Which i could not click as it had hung again.
Now, with or without the MicroSD or Sim it is back hanging at the 'smart mobility screen' again.
What should i do?
Thanks

First thing in such cases is a hardreset.
Yep, just doing that as you posted.
I really wanted to avoid doing that though.
Well, its done now, and now to re-install everything.
What do you thing was the fault? or cause for the hang ups.

Some software or setting you've done, or it was simply Murphys Law:
When the mistake could happen, it will happen
Should i upgrade the radio at this point?
Its like with PCs, u need to reinstall your operation system from time to time.
Hei all,
My Kaiser just the other night did something very strange and has not been able to fix it.
I turned it on, it booted right through then just like a stuck button it started to cycle through most programs starting and closing. The search engine starts up then it starts to write mmmmn.nmnm.mnnm. eee. and then stops .... ok this is just a few of the things it does.
Ok first I have soft booted and the same thing ... then I tried a hard reset ... guess what it will not hard reset. Yes two soft keys with the soft reset pushed in ..... but nothing!
Is there any other way to do a hard reset. I have no clue what is happening??
Thanks for the help!
Chris
Well guess what ..... after two days of trying to hard reset it finally worked .... perseverance ..... I guess fat fingers

Hi:
You can go into start/settings/system/clear storage. That will hard reset your device.
EDIT: Oops, sorry I missed your last line. Please disregard my post
Im soo pissed off right now.
So here is the situation. I'm hoping that I can quickly find help for the battle that me and my AT&T Tilt WM 6.1 are going through.
The name of the war -
CLEARTEMP ERASED EVERYTHING!!!!
So im at work on my office phone when my Tilt (which was in my holster on my hip) started vibrating... in three buzzes. I thought it was a message so I didnt answer right away.
5 minutes later I take out my phone to see who sent me a message but for some reason instead of seeing the S2U2 screen there was a "are you sure you want to?" block asking if i wanted to erase one of my programs because it was a unistalled registry, so the first thing i did was say no...... IT DID THAT FOR ABOUT 28 TO 30 DIFFERENT PROGRAMS!!!
Afterwards I exited out of Cleartemp to see if the programs were still on my phone but to my surprise not only were all of my programs gone but my storage card was completely erased and their was no settings folder and the only thing left in the programs folder was Games, tool box, file explorer and that fu3kin Media net.
I would have simply hard reset and used my sprite backup but there was no settings folder to get to the hard reset and my storage card was wiped completely clean.
so now i cant even hard reset and start from the ground up.
What can i do?
THANKS IN ADVANCE for taking the time to scratch your head in curiosity with me.
I would appreciate anyones help in helping me get through this War!!!
"THE VILLAIN"
Yeah man ClearTemp F'ed up my phone once too! Not nearly as bad as yours though, sorry to hear that.
ANyways, just hard reset using your soft keys and stylus. To do this, hold down your 2 soft keys they ones with the little horizontal dash on them the ones above the IE and mail icon buttons.
So push and hold those in with two fingers of one hand,
then with your other hand hit the soft reset button with your stylus.
Release the soft reset button and keep pressing the soft keys.
When the "This operation will delete all your personal data, to manufacturer default" appears on screen.
Press Green call button to restore manufacturer default,
or press Red call button to cancel.
had it happen to me as well
I had the same thing happen to me as well a week back, but fortunately I had just gotten a new card,so I recopyed all the info off my old card onto my new one... Im not sure why clear temp does that... but I dont want to use it again.. it has problems.
Hope you can restore it all the same!

I had the same problem lost a lot of mp3s and also my backups that were in the SD!! i was fortunate to find some old backup file and a SD card mirror folder on my computer and restored all, now i make sure i have both my internal storage and SD card copied to my computer.
Same issue. I ran cleartemp, my phone froze. I rebooted it and my storage card was corrupted. I lost most of the stuff on it. No more cleartemp for me, I now manually clean up ****.

Ditto.
Can anyone suggest any alternative auto-cleanup apps?
Theres a reason they call it flash-storage...
Never ever use SD/MMC/CF/USB Memstick/Other Flash-style-media for critical information or backups...
On another note I have been using cleartemp for nearly a year in a cooked rom and have never had a problem.
God! this is too much!! I've had this damn problem pretty much fromt the start (since I bought x1). Sometimes (in fact loads of times) x1 gets stuck and I'll have to soft reset it. When I do, it gets stuck when it says Windows mobile 6.1. And nothing else happens and then i'll have to soft reset it again!! Today it happened again and I had to soft reset it nearly ten times before It got normally switched on!! What should I do??! Plleeeeeeeeaaaase help. I'm getting fed up with this.
I also did a software update using SE. followed by a hard reset. Problem persists.
Flash another ROM? Sounds like some system file was corrupted to me.
That still happens to me - 6.1 or 6.5 ROMs made no difference. Though I have noticed now that the less you install on the phone, the less chance there is for the need to soft reset over and over again. I also noticed that if I turn wifi off before I turn off the phone, it's easier booting back up.
does this happen the same with the memory card removed?
Happened to me. Hard-Reset fixed the problem for me.
I already did a hard reset: Wouldn't do ant good. I haven't tried with mem card removed.
BTW it happened again but this time It came good at the 2nd attempt.

I've never tried. Do you get an error when you use it as drive mode? I sometimes get an error saying that the card is corrupted.
Corrupted memory cards might cause issues too, so try another card or remove the card, as another poster suggested.
