Guest jotto Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 From time to time (approximately once a week) my MTeor looses its connection settings. This makes it impossible to connect to the internet, wap, etc. In addition, my POP mail account is deleted. By restoring a previous backup (using Sprite backup) I'm able to restore these settings and the account, but it's quite frustrating. Has anyone else experienced this?
Guest Pennan Posted August 25, 2006 Report Posted August 25, 2006 Yes, mine did this after turning it off and on for the first time. But that has been the only time so far during the 2 weeks I have had it.
Guest Pagemakers Posted August 25, 2006 Report Posted August 25, 2006 (edited) Exactly the same thing happened to me. I hard reset and it did it again. I hard reset a second time and it did it again :D ....and once it has lost your mail settings you can not create the account again because it says the account name already exists!

Guest viskas Posted September 15, 2006 Report Posted September 15, 2006 did you find any solution for this problem?!? I could not find any different solution than resetting the phone all the times. quite frustrating... it's really annoying...
Guest Pagemakers Posted September 15, 2006 Report Posted September 15, 2006 Nope. No solution. Crap really.
Guest SecureGSM Posted September 16, 2006 Report Posted September 16, 2006 (edited) Nope. No solution. Crap really. HTC WWE MTeoR Radio : 1.06.00.10 RIL Version: 2.002 ROM: 1.13.251.2 Protocol: 32.37.7010.01H see if your MTeoR ROM any dfferent to this? Edited September 16, 2006 by SecureGSM
Guest jotto Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 The best solution I've got so far is to backup regularly using Sprite Backup and restore only the system settings when this happens. My tasks, calendar, documents, etc, are not reverted as those are not part of the system settings.
Guest Pagemakers Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 Sorry. That's not the point. The damn phone should not loose these settings full stop. Every smartphone I've had from the original SPV upwards has not done this so I don't expect a fifth or sixth generation phone to do this either. (not getting at you BTW).
Guest viskas Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 I spoke to italian HTC customer care. there's a "block" of units with software problems around europe. you can only solve the problem by flashing the unit with a new software. the update is only available at HTC repair service. there's no solution to the battery life problem. the only response to that could be a new improved battery on the market soon. the qualcomm chipset is too "hungry" when in 3g mode.
Guest Pagemakers Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 Thanks for the info. Strange they haven't released the software like every other smartphone manufacturer does.
Guest viskas Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 this is exactly what I told them. they had no reply to this remark. hope to solve the problem soon and to find the battery as soon as possible.
Guest SecureGSM Posted September 19, 2006 Report Posted September 19, 2006 Hello viskas! could you please post the ROM info to this thread as soon as you have your MTeoR flashed with the latest firmware? This info should help us alot. keep us informed. Thank you.
