Ok guys, I need some help here. I've been using multiple roms for a long time now but I have a problem with a very strange lockup.

When I change the alarm clock time under 'clocks & alarms', using the analog clock, and I press OK to accept the new time the interface locks up. I've to soft reset to get it active again. But I can also hold the power button to do a cold reset, which actually gives me the Warning pupup asking me to continue, which is strange as the interface seems to have locked up completely.
Something which happens occasionally is that when I press OK to accept the new alarm time all the background processes pop up really quick, like alt tabbing really quick, before a lockup.

This happens randomly, but ususally once my TyTN has had some uptime.

I always flash the official TyTN ROM (without radio) before flasing a new custom rom and I prefer not to use any RBS roms.

I've had these problems with almost all WM6.1 roms and am currently running CRCs Release 13.0 - Stable Thread (Build 20270) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=387990) and I will keep this one for now.

I've also seen this behavior with:
All pervious CRCs roms (development and stable), all PDACornerPro roms up to V22, some pdaviet roms (I've not tried all) and some other roms.

Thats odd, I cant reproduce it (On CRCv13), do you have anything else installed that might be causing any kinda conflict?

Not that I can think off right now, the only item that comes close is HomeScreen PlusPlus.

Anyway, the list of software I always have installed:

ClearTemp
Chi-Tai Dang HomeScreen PlusPlus
J.S. Advanced Configuration Tool
Nav N Go iGO 8
Total Commander

I've also installed other software when using roms but that's always different. I like pure and clean roms for speed :)

Another point of interest, my TyTN was bricked beyond repair a few weeks ago but I got full warranty and they replaced my device, so I'm running on different hardware than before.

I think the place to start is hard reset and see if you get the same error without installing anything.

Then work though, one program at a time, and find out what seems to be doing it.

Has this only started happing post getting the new phone? It would surprise me if it was a hardware issue though.

Nah, this also happened with my old TyTN. I was thinking about a hard reset and then letting it run for a while as you just suggested, so I'll do that now.
