Is there a XDA Flame specific forum here?

[doc1066]

Hi,
I am unable to find the XDA Flame forum on this site. Is here one or what is the XDA Flame name as HTC?

my quesiton is this:

Hi,
My relative gave me their XDA Flame - they bought it in summer 2007 and used it till summer 2008. They said they never had any problems with it. It was boxed since July 2008 till December 2008, when he gave it to me, to replace my XDAII!
Now the main issue is:
XDA Flame is not usable to turn on via the "turn on/off" swtich on the top left - screen stays blank - only by soft reset then it comes on and all is ok then. Why is this? This is a constant problem!

When after some time - i am so far seeing over an hour - I am not using the XDA flame - when i want to and press the on button - it does not come on. I press all the buttons, it does not work. I have to soft re-set to be able to use it. If ater 10-20 minutes i press the turn on button (on the top left), it comes on. If like I go to sleep and wake up, or after a one hour lunch (and no call received or sent), then the XDA Flame does not turn on - will see the green light flashing all the time indicating the phone is on, and that is it. Last night someone called me when the fone was on vibration at 20.30..but I noticed it at 21.00 and the phone was constantly vibrating with a BLANK screen as usual.
i tried with the old battery (which after fully recharging to 100% drains to 10% in 10-30 minutes - any ideas why?) - and that was the same problem.
Any ideas?

Doesn't answer your question but there is an XDA Flame (http://www.xdaflameusers.com/index.php) specific forum elsewhere.

Thanks!
why does XDA Flame has its own specific forum from the rest of the XDA models? Is it not a true XDA phone, or a very unique special phone to be not here but on another website of its own?
I have had XDAII since 2004 summer , till I got the XDA Flame and found XDAII v.good (besided crashing every 6-30 weeks), but XDA Flame 1. battery runs down big time and 2. have to soft-reset it to use it, as screen is blank and buttons are non responsive. very strange.

Hi,

The Flame isn't made by HTC so there won't be a forum on here any time soon.

The orginal request for the forum was here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=312030).

With Flar (Site Admin)'s final word on the matter in post #27 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1333623&postcount=27)
