I put my flame into my pocket without any cases. and it hangs which the green light stay on. it happen three times while i take out my phone to make call only realized it. any of u encounter it? I had to soft reset it. Wondering it is overheat? or the button was pressed for too long??


I am really tired of the bluetooth problem and above problem mention.... I am thinking whether i shd give my flame up and get something else. Bought it because the VGA and internal memory .... MAN I wish HTC would come out something like o2 Flame

I've not had this problem, but it occasionaly freezes when I turn it on and back off very quickly, before it has time to activate backlight.

exactly, i got flame because of vga and internal memory,i am thinking to switch back to htc but have to pick something really good i guess.htc omni coming out in couple months,i got my eye on that one.

crash: I'm only going on 2 days for this theory, but I noticed my device would crash all the time while it was off, (about 4-5 times per work-day) until I turned OFF wifi. Its been 2 days now and not 1 crash. 2 days though is not really a long enough test but I would ask (for the people with crashes) do you have your wifi on?

My 2nd test will be this... I don't think it crashed until I turned PowerManagement ON for WIFI. I think at the start of having the device I had it on WIFI Performance but wanted to see if there was a battery drain and flipped it to power management, it was around that time that the crashes started.

This is kinda why I gave it a 5/10 ... like many of us, I think if HTC had build this phone it would not be so problematic, but its not a bad phone, it just needs some 'special' attention :P

I also set WiFi on Power Save, but I turn off WiFi when I'm done, seldom do I leave it turned on when I switch off the PDA. But I will pay more attention to this. Incidentally my F-S Loox N560 also has this same problem.

I wouldn't praise HTC too much. My old Qtek 9100 with the shipped ROM was buggier than the Flame, way buggier. You couldn't sinc with AS two times in a row without having to softreset in between; thanks to XDA-Developers lately it was fast and stable with WM6... The F-S Loox 720 was a very solid device, although ROMs weren't made by HTC, only the PDA itself. But that's another discussion.

Anyway I belive that we're going to have a WM 6 ROM, maybe later than expected. But the Flame will be in trouble if in the next two months isn't getting a new ROM. And I don't think O2 wants this for their top of the line PocketPC Phone Edition.

we are so many people here bought this expensive device, what should we do that will make O2 think yes they need to bring a proper update for flame?should we email them everyday or start a petition?
whatever is flame right now,not more than a usual phone and bit of pda to me,i thought it was great but no most of its cool things are full of troubles so i am not using anything other than a phone/alarm/appointments, any 50 bucks crapy phone has these features too,why did i spend $1200+ and got this flame with full of feature as mentioned theater in my pocket? lol
ye you think i am upset,why ? because the way they advertised and gave wm6 hope etc and now you email them they say don't wait for anything we not sure what we doing right now. why am i asking for wm6 becuase it has very very less issues compare to current wm5 we using,this upgrade didn't happen for nothing,it had purpose behind it so we either need wm6 or atleast a upgrade soon with major issues solved.
am i asking too much here?

I tried out some OC using PHM v4.08.023

Stock (performance) speed and settings are: 520Mhz Bus:208, Mem:104, LCD:104, L=16, N=5, A=1, LCD=0, T=1, FB=1 -> SI=415,MIPS=335, Mem=494
================================================== ====
624Mhz Bus:208, Mem:104, LCD:104, L=16, N=6, A=1, LCD=1, T=1, FB=1 -> SI=456,MIPS=400, Mem=512 -> passed the PHM benchmark but crashed in TCPMP benchmark Status = FAILED
================================================== ====
553Mhz Bus:221, Mem:111, LCD:55.25, L=17, N=5, A=1, LCD=1, T=1, FB=1 -> SI=441,MIPS=356, Mem=525 -> passed the PHM benchmark passed TCPMP benchmark Status = WORKING
================================================== ====
618Mhz Bus:247, Mem:124, LCD:62, L=19, N=5, A=1, LCD=1, T=1, FB=1 -> SI=488,MIPS=398, Mem=578 -> passed the PHM benchmark, crashed TCPMP benchmark Status = FAILED
================================================== ====
585Mhz Bus:234, Mem:117, LCD:62, L=18, N=5, A=1, LCD=1, T=1, FB=1 -> SI=462,MIPS=376, Mem=548 -> passed the PHM benchmark, passed TCPMP benchmark Status = WORKING
================================================== ====

Speed of 624, 650, 682 crashed PHM right away so I stopped going higher then 585 for my device it seems to be the stable limit, but as you all know, not all components are created equal, you might have more success then me.

I'm currently running at 585 will run it for a couple of days and tell you whats what...
