Unexplained volume drop to zero - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I hate to make this post, but was a solution ever found for the unexplained volume drop to zero issue? I have followed the threads regarding this problem, searched, wiki'd and just about everything else but still no luck finding a resolution.
Regardless of ROM or regedit it appears this problem just doesn't die. Absent a cure for the problem, it's going back to 6.0 over the weekend.
Thanks for any insight.

Well, I guess this means there is no solution.

Well, I'm new to Kaiser and it's problems, but this one is quite annoying. This is what I came to after many days of messing with it...
I'm using shifu rom, it works great. SPB shell is also installed on my Kaiser and S2U also, but the problem with sudden ring volume drop remained. It disappeared when I turned off ID call through the S2U, and now using just windows regular. S2U slider remained, just ID call function in it disabled. Now I'm trying to reproduce the bug, but fortunately no luck in that. So if you use it, just go to S2U2 settings/general/ID off. Worked for me, but I'll keep you posted if something goes wrong.
Cheers!

PROBLEM : Call drops after first ring?

Hi,
I'm having trouble with my Diamond. When a private number calls, it gets dropped after the first ring, before I get a change to get then phone even out of my pocket?
Its really frustrating... and its starting to do it on number, unbarred numbers?
Has anybody seen anything like this before? It doesn't happen all the time, but its getting pretty consistent!
I'm running SwiftBL 5.6 and Radio 100.05.25
Please help!

yes, I'm experiencing the same thing too and I'm using the official 1.93 rom.
as far as I know, it doesn't only affect private call and the problem is very random.
What I notice is the phone will keep ringing until you press any button or the touchscreen to answer or mute the call and that's the time the phone will drop the call....hoping to find solution too....
I had the same problem with the HTC 1.93 ROM. Changing radios made no difference. Switched to Swift v5.6 and all is OK. BTW am in UK on Orange.
even with 1.37 rom, i'm also having the problem....wonder does anyone know what's the problem and solution....
I had this problem after I've tried to sort out the 3 sec delay problem... After a Hard Reset and not playing with the 3 sec delay problem everything is fine....

hmm....I didn't mess with that delay at all but still the problem is there...
Lay your phone on the table and try again.
Most comes with the problem in your pocket.
As soon as the phone rings the touchscreen is enabled and it drops the call because it thinks you pressed ignore.
This problem can be solved by s2u2.
I had the same problem and solved it with this program.
It blockes your touchscreen unless you slide it from left to right completely.
Grtzzzz
Yeah, thats exactly it I think... because its always in my pocket, but I have the HTC case, which by the time I've either take it out of my pocket or out of the case, the call has gone!
Does anybody have a link for that app s2u2.
I will try this... because I tried changing the ringer settings and all sorts, and nothing helped! All the iPhone and N95 guys are slagging me at work! Apart from that its by far the best phone in the office
Cheers for the help!
Will report back if I find that and app if it works!

definitely not due to that problem. Numerous time, my phone was not in my pocket but on the desk already. A couple of time when the phone ring, I pick it up and press the answer button(touchscreen and hardware button) but it just drop the call....haizzzz
No one else has this problem?
I'm getting exactly the same problem (I'm using the official Vodafone 1.93 ROM)...really annoying!
I am getting this problem too... anybody have a solution? Whenever a private number comes in, when i click on the answer tab, the call will just disconnect... this is very fustrating...
I also get this issue, always with a private number and sometimes with a stored number. At first I thought it was becuase I was touching the screen when I first took the phone out of my pocket but like someone else said this also happens when its on a table.
Any help would be really appreciated!!

Backlight turns on!! Tilt WM6.1

I have an AT&T tilt and I just upgraded it to the WM6.1 ROM from the HTC webpage and since then I have noticed that when I turn of the screen, all of a sudden it just lights up for a sec and turns off again, without any reason, is there a way to fix this, do i have to flash it again? what do I have to do?
i have the same issue, seems like after i flashed it happened.. any ideas?
one cool feature is that when it flickers, if u press the screen constantly, it flickers.. like a strobe light.. lol
I have the same problem. It's annoying because I think I'm getting a text or call. and usually I don't receive texts, i have to see it light up then press the mail button to see if I have a new text. ARGH.
My Tilt does the same thing. It's a whiteish-gay light. It'll come on for short bursts or I'll notice it on in the middle of the night, and who knows how long it's on until I notice it.
I had upgraded to WM6.1 a while back, and didn't have any issues, but had to hard reset my Tilt and it has been doing it since.
It doesn't do it all the time, either. Weird.
Mine Does The Same Thing
I hope there is a fix some time for this ..
I'm glad i am not the only one, but havent found a fix yet
I seem to remember there being an issue with screen flicker when the Tilt first came out, I think it was related to having Telnav selected in the today screen items tab. Try removing the checks one item at a time from the items tab, I doubt it will be as simple as a software conflict but it could be worth trying.
I had an issue with SPB Pocket Plus on my today screen, once I moved it in to a tab on SPB Shell the issue disappeared.
Fixxed?
I dont know if it just stopped doing it, I am not paying attention anymore or if one of the many things I did finally worked, but the truth is i havent seen it do it again, Thanks to everybody
It been happening on my Tilt since I got it last month.
This is happening on my tilt too... only after upgrading to 6.1. Glad to see it is not just me, but very concerning that this is a problem directly in the 6.1 TILT rom.
Bump........
Any body have any luck on this? I continue to have this problem.
Adding my voice and another symptom
is anyone else having this problem:
1. lock the tilt by tapping 'device unlocked'
2. tap the power button.
3. the backlight comes on, no picture but instead of flashing it stays on draining the battery
4. tap the power button to turn the tilt back on
5. tap the power button to turn tilt back off again
6. tilt stays off.
the issue did not change with the backlight hotfix.
Maybe try another ROM
Finally, i found others with this stupid glitch
I thought it was a hardware error, so i had AT&T send me a warranty/replacement, and guess what... comes out of the box and STILL DOES IT! Has anyone with this problem tried installing a DIFFERENT ROM, like one from the XDA forums? I'm about to try that, because i am fed up with this. I will report if it works. ARG!
Sorry for the ranting. but in a way, i'm relieved. that there are others with this problem
... It might pay to just go back to Windows Mobile 6.0.....
-=ZYXTIA=-
Different ROM fixed problem, but just had more problems after. Sorry guys.
Me Too...
I am glad that I have found other people with the same issue as me. I thought it was just my phone, as I do a lot of backups and restores after I do something stupid with my phone and I also use a lot of beta/unstable software, and figured it was caused by these. However, it only happened after I upgraded to 6.1 stock ROM. Maybe somebody can figure out exactly why this happens, and then we can come up with a fix. I am just happy that I'm no longer alone with this issue
-Dave
I'm very pleased to know that it isn't just me experiencing this stupid backlight issue.
It started happening the second I upgraded to WM6.1
Funny thing is, it only happens to me if I Lock the phone (keys) and turn off the screen. If I just turn off the screen without locking, the backlight stays off.
It would be really great if someone could come up with a fix for this that doesnt require me to reflash my phone with some cooked up rom
has anyone tried this hotfix?
http://www.htc.com/us/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=67&cat=1&dl_id=269
i'm experiencing the same problem, will try it and post back as soon as i can
edit: didn't work. got some error about it couldnt remove the old customization tool or something like that
Running the AT&T 6.1 ROM and silly thing turns on by itself at 12 midnight. No connection to anything as I leave it in Flight Mode. Only goes off after I hit the Power Button. Drains the battery down to about half by the time I leave for work at 7AM.
Really is annoying!
Possible Solution
If you are still under warranty, call up AT&T warranty replacement (Customer service is 1-800-331-0500, and just ask for warranty department), and tell them you have this problem. TELL THEM YOU THINK IT IS A HARDWARE ISSUE, and they will send you a replacement, refurbished Tilt. The next one will also have WM6.1 on it, and do the same thing. HOWEVER, it is AT&T policy that after two replacements, instead of getting another one the third time, they give you a refurb of a DIFFERENT MODEL. That is how i got the AT&T FUZE (a.k.a. the HTC Touch Pro, a.k.a the "Raphael"). It doesn't have that problem. But otherwise, i have no other suggestions. i'm just sick of having AT&T screw up the phone's software, and then try to pass it off as quality.
Mine comes on exactly at midnight!
Annoying as hell...and the light from it wakes me up from across the room.

Sometimes I can't answer the phone with hardware buttons ;/

Hi guys,
I'm quite newbie... I've just moved from SPV c600 to DIAMOND. I've one problem that really makes me mad. At first I must tell that I've tried everything hard reset , than checking if any apps is causing that one by one-with no result. Occasionally I just can't pick up/refuse a calls with HW buttons. I use S2U2(installed yesterday), but this problem I had even before i installed that app. Does anybody of you experienced such an issue? Anybody knows the answer how to fix it? Thanks in advance
Same thing happens to me! It is like HW buttons work whenever they want but not all the time. If you install AEButton Plus you can remap HW buttons, but again the same thing will happen. The changes will work sometimes but not always.
I have a similar problem. Can you answer with soft buttons? Hoping some solution ideas will appear here or in that thread.
Same issue here.
I have added my experience to the above listed thread, and also opened a thread at Howard Forums.
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?p=12088702#post12088702
This has become extremely frustrating.
Sprint has not been very receptive to this either.
what works for me is to lock & unlock the screen.
unless it case is related to another problem which i have experience before as well. But this has gone away since i loaded a different rom from the original htc.
*edit
this should fix it

My buttons don't want to be touched...

Ok, this might be the first real problem I've had with my tilt, in a sense that I have no freakin clue what happened or how to fix it. The front buttons on the tilt as well as my keyboard decided they wanted to stop working and I have no clue how to bring them back... let me start from the beginning.
I installed m2d about 2 weeks ago, its kind of laggy but I'm still impressed with the overall UI as it compliments the tilt. Some bugs started popping up here and there but through the forum I was able to make it run relatively smoothly. Last night my tilt wouldn't connect to my computer, the usb contacts might have gone bad or something, it only works when I put pressure on the cable to keep the contacts together. Than today my screen would wake up for no reason, with no programs or application running in the front or background of the device. It was annoying to say the least. Than I got my first text of the day and went to respond using the actual keyboard, no dice. No response from the keyboard. So as Im typing using the stylus I tried to delete something, and the backspace button on the touch keypad isn't working, so more problems. I want to try and hard reset the device to see if that fixes the problem, but since I can't use the hard buttons on the front of the device I can't hard reset (the scroll wheel, ptt, and ok buttons aren't working either) Is this anything anyone has ever heard of? My tilt is kind of battered after a year of use, but nothing significant has happened within the last month to make me think that something inside came loose, especially since this just started today and it was just sitting on my table all night. I appreciate any and all help. Thanks in advance.
might be "m2d" not compatible ... hair wired ..
I wonder ..whether we can install window CE from pc to h/p through usb link ...
"Last night my tilt wouldn't connect to my computer, the usb contacts might have gone bad or something, it only works when I put pressure on the cable to keep the contacts"
r u using original usb cable ..b'cos now a day I saw many only using normal "small" usb cable head which easily spoil the connector at phone ... too loose for that sharp..

having same exact issue
ya it happened to me sunday night, having exact same problem. keyboard doesnt work, and my front buttons dont work exept for the the center button which ends up opening the start menu (wrong command). Im over my 1 year warrenty and not sure what to do. Had to buy a cheap 40 dollar nokia for the time being, please help if someone can. Oh and I did a hard reset, and it didnt fix anything. Booted android with it and 1 out of 5 times the buttons came back, this is really weird/vexing.

Exactly the same thing has happened to me!! Coming on randomly, draining the battery really quickly and the same keys doing the same things as yours i.e. nothing or Start menu. The backspace and space don't work on the on-screen keyboard either. Is it the end of the road or has anyone the slightest idea what the hell to do!?!?!?
Same issue but slightly different
2 days ago I started hearing a noise from my phone that was not something I normally hear. After checking my phone I found out it was the voice recorder program opening up on its own. It started repeatedly doing this and recording automatically. I had to hold down the close option (X) and before it would stop. AFter a reset and when the phone wakes up it always does this now. Along with all these whacky problems my hard buttons stopped working. My scroll wheel and D-pad sometimes work and only the up, down, left and right arrows work on the keyboard. Camera button seems to work sometimes also. All others have stopped responding. Except for holding the power key. I just reflashed my phone to latest phoenix ROM and problem is the same. Is this it for the phone or is there a fix.
Anyone??? Please!!
Try this free fix
I had the same problem as the original poster. My fix was to download AE Button Plus trial and use it to reset my keys to their original setting. I did not have to do the keyboard, just the external keys. Now my tilt works like it used to.
This fixed the problem when clear storage and reloading roms did not.
It doesn't hurt to try since the trial is free.
Good Luck,
Will
same here... help pls...
any one yet has found a solution for this issue??? 2days ago my Kaiser suddenly started with same problems, buttons dont work and the recorder goes on, any one yet found a way to fix it??? thanks...
I have no idea if this will actually help anyone but I installed japanese input on my kaiser once and during the process a registry got edited that stopped my hardware keyboard and the hardware keys (front keys) from working and the fix was to correct the value:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\e0010411]
edit the 0010411 value to "00000409"
again I have no idea if this will help but it wouldnt hurt to check to see if the registry somehow got changed. Goodluck and I hope you guys figure it out.
didnt work...

Any idea how to fix it??

Greetings from Olsztyn Poland
Unfortunately, the problem returned it was only a temporary improvement, sorry
For my tytn2 after rom upgrade, the front buttons do not respond except the central one. the side buttons are responding under the win only but in the bootloader screen they don't respond. and I cannot make a hard reset.
I did a hard reset through the setting menu but still the problem has not been solved. Adding on that the keyboard doesn't work except the arrow keys.
Do anyone can figure a solution for that. except the hardware problem bec I am out of warranty.
Did anyone was able to solve the problem fully?
oo wow, i have the same problem. hope theres a fix
adding to that the the bluetooth is turnino on by itself even if I switched it off and the device by itself after time of switching it off it refuse to start again unless I did a soft reset.
I tried all the avilabe suggestion but nothing worked.
Hiya
This seems to be a problem with the TyTn II - there are several threads in this forum about it, none of which have any working solutions that I ever found...
I spent ages trying different ROMS, Radios and pressing of buttons and haven't found a solution - other than to disown the TyTn II and get another phone! I did pick it up again the other day and it is still refusing to have working buttons or keyboard (as reported by others, only the central buttons seems to work all the time as a Start Menu button).
I did manage to stop it eating battery at a ridiculous rate by turning it to specific radio settings rather than letting it find its own GPRS/ 3G and phone band. I think it was in this thread
I was considering sending my TynTn II to HTC, but I'm not sure it's going to be worth the postage and their service fees as I've already replaced it with a Touch Pro 2. Then again if we ALL sent them in, they might acknowledge some sort of problem with this model.

{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.
