Guest mwille Posted September 29, 2003 Report Posted September 29, 2003 Hi guys, Just had a freaky problem for the second time.. Phone's lying on the table, call comes in, a garbelled up bit of the ringtone is heard and the phone is shutdown instantly ! :shock: I've had the QTEK rom for some time now so I don't expect that to be the cause.. Moved the ringtones from the storage card back to ipsm but it happened never the less (the storecard turns unreadable sometimes, also unusual for a brandnew Sandisk :? ) Anybody seen this before ? Last app I installed was AIM's Identify.. was not running though the last time this strange problem arrised. Removed the app anyway just to see whether it has something to do with it.. Any and all pointers apreciated !
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted September 29, 2003 Report Posted September 29, 2003 the storecard turns unreadable sometimes, also unusual for a brandnew Sandisk :? ) Not unusual as earlier in the year there was a dodgy batch of cards doing the rounds :? Was the battery charge level low? Also if the card is not getting read sometimes try having a different card in the phone for a while and see what happens.
Guest mwille Posted September 30, 2003 Report Posted September 30, 2003 Been testing a bit yesterdaynight. Battery level was indeed not much, one indicator left, batterystate said I had 27% power. But after I posted the initial message it crashed with every call ! :shock: I kinda ruled out the storage card in this matter because I reverted to using ringtones in IPSM only.. Anybody know whether this can be caused by a registry modification done by recently installed program or something in that direction ? (grasping at straws here..)
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted September 30, 2003 Report Posted September 30, 2003 It is possible but if you are not sure what has been modified etc the only final solution is to try a Hard Rest :? Only do that when you are sure you have tried everything else.
Guest Richie M Posted September 30, 2003 Report Posted September 30, 2003 I would imagine that it is/was due to the low battery level - the phones do get grumpy when low on power :?
Guest mwille Posted September 30, 2003 Report Posted September 30, 2003 Well isn't it very odd that this only happend since the day before yesterday ? I use the phone intensively all day long, so batterylevel is always that low late at night.. Never had this prob before though :roll:
Guest pcheaven Posted September 30, 2003 Report Posted September 30, 2003 probably a dodgy card Try it with the card as supplied with the phone...
Guest mwille Posted September 30, 2003 Report Posted September 30, 2003 Like I said 2 posts earlier : I don't use the ringtones on the card anymore. And the problem persists with no card in the phone ! ;)
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted September 30, 2003 Report Posted September 30, 2003 If the battery is charged and you have plenty of free Physical memory then I can only think of a Hard Reset :?
Guest mwille Posted September 30, 2003 Report Posted September 30, 2003 Well... It's working fine now.. I'll have to wait and see what happens tonight when battery is getting lower again. I am having a hard time accepting this as the cause since it has not ever shown this behaviour in the past, low battery or not.. Damn, if i had al the time in the world to rebuild my ipsm I would hard reset the sucker right now. :evil:
