I have been having problems with my xdaII for some time, although it used to be relatively trouble-free and give or take a few idiosynchracies has worked properly since unlocking. I don't know if these problems are related or not so I will put them all in one message:
These are the problems:
1) Putting my Spanish SIM card in activates a hard reset 9 times out of 10 (it was fine putting the same card into my son's xda). Once it did it putting my English SIM back in, but this is usually OK.
2) Inbox stopped opening -when I click on 'unread messages' it just flickers. It won't open from 'Programs' or from 'New Message' either, nor by opting to send a message from a particular contact.
3) After a hard reset (involuntary) Inbox would open again until I restored my settings, whereupon it wouldn't, so it looks as though it is a dodgy setting.
4) After restoring contacts & appointments only (not settings) Inbox will open but it won't send texts. It sends the text to an ActiveSync folder instead (can't remember which one).
5) Since the above, there is now a new Folder appeared in SMS, entitled 'IPM.Root'. Weird.
6) Whenever I do a soft reset the volume box comes up and it makes a wild beep! beep! beep! beep! beep! beep! until I turn it off and on again.
7) The volume goes off by itself without me touching it: I virtually never hear my phone as volume has gone off again
8) Then there are the synchronisation problems. It often tells me it doesn't recognise my device and I have to set up a new partnership. This is laborious as I have two computers and then have to do it on the other as well...
Somehow I feel that I need a reset that's harder than hard - or do I need a new device?
Will someone help and advise me please!
