HERMES Auto suspend fix

[nittin_sp]

There is a peculiar problem in hermes(the best device ever made). Some times the phone led (green) blinks where as the display is off and it fails to start up even if u soft reset.
in the meanwhile if some one calls u he will get a ring but u wont be notified by ur device
this will make the person calling think u r avoiding him

this is the perfect solution tried on atlest 50 hermes
Plz install the following cab then switch off ur device then switch it on again and wolla the sleep to death problem is gone
Take care

Guess you forgot the cab?

Edit: Ok, here it is now ;-)

[pietrucci]

Anyone tried this???
To be honest: I find it a little hard to believe: threads all over the place about this SOD. All chiefs searching and searching for the solution.
And now in your first post you have the solution?
Hope it's its true...

Could you please give us some more information than "this is the perfect solution..."?

How does this patch work? any technical detail as to how this fixes the issue?

Great if it does but a little skeptical without any detail?

Cheers

I agree with pietrucci,

please ... Anyone tried this CAB? we need our forum seniors & moderators answering us.

Thanx for your efforts nittin_sp, and hope it's truly works.

To tell you the truth I have never been able to reproduce the SOD problem whatsoever. I still can't figure out what the heck is causing it.
Anyway, if you doubt nittin_sp, maybe you should tr it yourself and see if it solves the problem.
This was rather uncourteous...

IN my whole 6 months having my hermes i had never had SOD until i flashed the official dopod rom with matt kitchen. when I traced the source that SOD had came from it was a bad extended rom flash i done. This cause the device to go sleep after the screen time out, and also if i put the phone in idle mode i had to soft reset everytime.

i flashed an original operator t-mobile rom with the extended rom and all my problems went away.

My device has never been quicker no more SOD and battery life is superb with the new radio 1.47 after one whole day with normal use with 3g internet I am still on 70% battery life.

Now I have the perfect device and i think hermes WM6 crave and addiction will be thinned out as there is not much you can do now with the hermes as to wait for PROTON or fully integrated touchflo working ROM.

p.s
TRY FLASHED A AN ORIGINAL OPERATOR ROM WITH THE EXTENDED ROM YOU CAN USE ROMKOCH TO EXTRACT THOSE TWO AND FLASHED YOUR ROM BEFORE FLASHING WM6 AND GUANRANTEE YOU WILL SEE AND FEEL A MUCH MORE RESPONSIVE HERMES. THATS MY 2 cents

Running new official wm6 no more sod here so cannot verify that it works, but I had alot of sod in various other roms and if this is a solution the senior members/cooks should disect it and figure out what is the real cause of them and what exactly this fixes since they are not so forthcoming.

edit, wait reading it again it says that even soft reset fails to start up, if that is true they are not talking about any sod I have ever had soft reset does what it does resets the device and boots up.

There were many quick fixes trying to figure out the sod problem, sd card issues, active sync turning on etc, maybe this is a cab that does that.

I have had SOD's several times a week.
Will try this and get back to you in a couple of days

I find that I have to SRS every morning after not touching the device all night. I have installed this cab and will report back tomorrow about the behavior of the device. It would be wonderful if this actually works. I am keeping an open mind about it.

I don't understand why you're being so mysterious about this nittin_sp. From what I can tell using IDA Pro (sorry, but I am reluctant to simply load something on faith based on "100% fix" claims alone), your patch simply sets the DWORD value "DisableAutoSuspend" in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\sys to a 1. Interestingly, on my TyTN running WM6 this is already set to a 1. :(

Sometimes its easier to just say this rather then create a cab. That way the rest of the community can work off your findings and perhaps explore this SOD issue better.

If your cab does more than this then please share your knowledge so we can further explore this hermes issue.

ok so I installed this. I've not had any BSOD's since doing so in a 24 hour period, when normally I'm getting them alteast every hour, sometimes more than 1 in an hour. Will report more soon. Would be good if you can post what this does though as I'd like the ROM cooks to build it in.

Hi,

Sorry if this is a dumb question - why do you need to extract the ROM and EXTENDED ROM after flashing the original operator ROM and then flash WM6?

Would it be the same if I just flash the official WM6 and reflash with the cooked WM6?

Thanks!

As promised, I am reporting my results. While I have no idea what this patch is doing, for the first time since I have had this device, I have not had a single failure. Coincidence? We will see in 24 hour.

Well unfortunately I have had the problem happen to me once, and I have larger batter drain than before.

I have not noticed any increase in battery drain, but I did not use the phone much on the weekend. The reality is, the only time I have the problem is when I do not touch the phone and it goes to sleep. When it wakes up, there is an apparent memory issue that SRS easily resolves. But, since I have installed this cab, the issue has not reappeared - yet.

[neil@domino.org]

yup over 24 hours and no issue... Its looking good.

[neil@domino.org]

spoke too soon - still sod... reduced but still present - what does this hack do exactly?

Me too. Mine just failed about 5 minutes ago. Too bad.
