Has anyone else experienced this ????

I have an O2 XDA II with 1.72 , 1.14, and for no apparent reason it just decides to turn itself off, needing me to remove the battery. Instead of starting normally, it hard resets itself :/

Any advice welcomed

Just had that happen twice. It didn't turn off though; it locked up hard. The soft reset button would leave it on a black screen. Once I removed and replaced the battery, it was hard reset. Both times it happened on airplanes, maybe it's allergic to them...

What softwares do you install to your XDA2??
if u installed Pocketplus, remove it...
it caused your XDA to be death...

No Pocket Plus in my case, don't like it. I have several programs that provide the same functions, but had not caused a problem in the past.

Do you have a link to some evidence of the Pocket Plus problem?

Hello,

I've got the same problem with a new one. Just sent it back for exchange.
The only software it might have caused problems is iStatus, which worked properly on my old xdaI before.

So however if you've installed this software as well this could be a solution ...

ciao

i seemed to have cured the problem. although i'm not sure which cured it.

The XDA seemed to start hard reseting around the time I :

a) bought a spare battery from PDAMAODS (1400mAh). Am now using the original again

b) upgraded the roms from

1.66WWE (now 1.72.00)
1.10 (now 1.17)
can't remember (now 1.72.126)

c) adjusting the power settings to turn the device off after <5 mins for both battery and external power


I now have have the power setting set to constantly on, have put in the original battery and cleared the ext rom of ALL programs, and it now works fine, although battery life is now crap, as to be expected.

Hope this helps ppl with similar problems :/

Only time that my MDA-II has to hard reset is when I set Bluetooth function on. Maybe there is a bug in Bluetooth
