My new Palm Centro freezes during incoming calls, which affects my business that I'm self-employed

Hello

I tried all the patches on my new Palm Centro, nothing helps.  I use my phone as my business phone and I am self-employed independent.  I missed more than several business calls very imnportant because of this problem of freezinf.  I use mobile phones now more than 15 years and have never had this problem before.  As mentioned, I tried all the mentioned patches, no joy.  I don't have any third-party software.  I do not sync my Centro on my desk.  I only used the phone and calendar option.  I don't see any point in calling the support line because it will cost me money for a known problem.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

Mike

I've been in the same situation a year ago and my advice is, get something else.

The unlocked GSM Centro clearly has a problem and many of us have gone through several refurbed and sometimes even new units and still had the same problem. It's not worth the hassle. Pity even so, as the calendar of the Centro and form factor is ideal for business, the aints however lock and will do your head in.

So my advice is to get your money while you can. If you are looking for Centro and freezing here and other forums, you'll see what I mean.

  • Centro freezes on incoming calls

    I recently bought a Palm centro unlocked and the unit freezes almost everytime I try to accept and the call coming. This continues for about one minute (until the appeal is discontinued) and then I went back to the home screen. I tried a soft and hard reset, but nothing works. I have not all third-party applications installed in my camera. I haven't had problems with the device freeze, other than on incoming calls...

    I got apreciate any help

    Thank you

    I will answer your questions in red below.

    It is my first palm device. Ok.

    When I did the hard reset, the device asked if I wanted to erase all the data and I have confirmed by pressing "up". (Not sure if that's what you mean) Yes.

    I tried to call myself a few times after the hard reset, but before the synchronization. It worked for 5 calls without problem, but I don't know if this could be a coincidence. The next synchronized and after awhile, I had the same problem again.

    So before of you Sync the device, it worked OK. This means that something in the backup, in the case of user_name folder on the PC can cause the problem.

    Looks like you may need to reset your device and rename your backup folder. Go to http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887 and follow the directions to do a hard reset. Then before of you hotsync your data back you will need to rename your backup folder, to do than go here.

    XP
    C:\Program files\palm or palm one\ [hotsync username]------and rename your backup
    file Backup.Old

    Vista
    Start--> documents\Palm OS Desktop\ [hotsync username]------and rename your backup
    file Backup.Old

    Then hotsync from your current name of hotsync and all your contacts, calendar,
    tasks and memos coming back.

    Show the file extensions for XP or Vista

    XP
    If you cannot view the extensions of file on your PC I would you open a
    folder, go to Tools--> Folder Options--> View (tab) and under Show hidden
    files and folders to uncheck Hide extensions of known file types.

    Vista
    Open control Panel, go to--> View (tab) and under show hidden folder Options
    files and folders to uncheck Hide extensions of known file types.

  • New update of Skype - no incoming calls more - Version 4.10.0.332 (4.10.332)

    Hello, SKYPE,.

    Since you provided the new version of Skype for IOS, incoming calls stopped working. I've tried everything. I talked to two of my friends and they know exactly the same problem. I also talked to an agent of very naughty Skype chatting. This is the culmination of the measures already taken:

    1 Delete SKYPE and reinstalled

    2. check that we have the latest version of IOS and SKYPE

    3. under Notifications, made sure everything is turned on

    4. under settings, then on SKYPE, made sure sign is automatically turned on and switch to offline mode is set to 'NEVER '.

    5. also ensured that a device is connected with AN account

    6. it doesn't matter if you call the SKYPE NUMBER or SKYPE to SKYPE, the call does not work

    7 missed calls / messages appears later in SKYPE when you open the SKYPE application

    8. complete reset of the network settings Device IOS

    9. on my iPad, I actually completely deleted and reset the whole device to the factory settings and deleted everything out of it. Reinstalled only SKYPE, but the same behavior. Does not work.

    Incoming calls work on my Mac Book and my PC.

    Also, if you keep the 'in focus' app on your device IOS, which means that you make sure that your screen is not locked or you do not use e-mail, etc., then the incoming calls will work on SKYPE.

    SKYPE: You need to fix this ASAP. It is terrible user experience. I have a real number of SKYPE that I use regularly. My whole family uses SKYPE with each person having their own SKYPE number. Now, we can no longer talk to each other.

    By the way I know that you're going to ask the question, so here's my version of IOS: 6.1.3

    SKYPE: PLEASE CORRECT THIS IMMEDIATELY, OR BE A WAY FOR THE ENTIRE UNITED STATES, BACK TO THE OLD VERSION OF SKYPE.

    See you soon

  • Apple Watch not advise with haptics during incoming calls

    Hi, my Apple Watch is not advising me with haptics for incoming calls. When I see the call on my phone and check my watch, I see appear on my Apple Watch face, but not with haptics the incoming call.

    I have the latest iOS on my iPhone 6 (9.3.4) and on my Apple Watch (2.2.2)

    Must be with the implementation in the application of Apple Watch, configure the options for the phone in the mirror?

    Hello

    It can help to use these settings:

    • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: My Watch (tab) > Notifications > phone:
      • Choose custom.
      • Allow everyone to view alerts, sounds and Haptic.

    When make or receive calls, I can't hear the caller at the other end of the line.  In addition, the option of touch screen to activate the speaker (or turn off my bluetooth headset, if it is active) is no longer present.  Some callers can hear me speak.

    pTunes now also only play through my headphones.

    Maybe in relationship: I had occasional problems getting my phone to stay off when I turn it off, and at least a display claims that I call you instead of Maryland North Carolina.

    So, I tried all the resets, called customer service AT & T and Palm customer support.  The consensus is that I'll end up paying $200 to repair or can I buy a new phone.

    1. someone at - it similar experiences with the best solutions?

    2. If others have similar experiences with the same solutions, they are crap phones and what kind should I expect instead?

    One thing you can try is to plug and unplug headphone plug about 10 or 20 quickly in succession.  It seems that if you set the switch which indicates the unit plugged headphones.

    Plug and unplug, you can retrip the switch and headphone jack should work.

    Regarding the phone showing you in another State which is entirely based on the settings of the network and the phone number by the carrier.

  • Xperia Z3 Compact restarts during incoming call

    Hi there dear people,

    I'm Dutch and English is not my native language so my apologies for the spelling mistakes.

    Do not hesitate to

    My mother uses a brand-new compact Xperia Z3 to day and everything is fine except for the fact that the phone restarts automatically after attempting to answer a call. I saw a topic on this problem without any solution.

    I turned it back to settings factory twice now. And tried the power switch with volumebutton upward, resulting in 3 vibrations and lit. This is supposed to reset the cache or something?

    Please give me some advice or solution.

    The last thing to do at the moment is perhaps a new SIM card. Other than that, help and suggestions are welcome.

    Thank you much in advance.

    If this happens again, get a new card SIM of nano

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry freezes during a call after update

    Hello.  I bought my Blackberry 8300 Curve on April 2008 and it was working very well.  Two weeks ago, I decided to connect the unit to the computer for an update and have downloaded the latest version of the software for blackberry (not by choice, the update practically pushed himself) and, since then, 98 percent of the calls I'm freezing with and without the bluetooth device.  I push all the buttons and it does not; I remove the battery and put it back and turn on the unit and it is still frozen.  Is it possible at all to do a rollback on update or correct this problem?

    You can recharge your device OS... can something gone wrong. See the following article:

    Also make sure that your carriers download site for you make sure you have the latest version:

  • New firmware update freezes during installation

    I tried to use the update several times, and it freezes at about 10% install.  I tried to copy the bin file in the root directory, but I can't drag it to the root directory (a small icon appears at the bottom of the icon of the file when I move it to the directory of rocket... it is the symbol of the 'no'... a small red circle with a bar slash through it).

  • Screen / phone does not not during the current incoming call.

    All;

    I just noticed this behavior 2 days ago and it went this AM as well. During an incoming call, I tried to access the data on my Bravo but the screen was dark and pressing the unlock/lock button at the top has nothing more than any other control. I haven't lost the appeal and I got the info written down, so I got to the question on the ground. As soon as the call is completed, I could see the screen by pressing the menu and then command unlock the phone with the swipe.

    I also noticed that there are no e-mail messages. I decided to power off the device (soft reset). Messages, then went down, but 2 days ago I did not have a message problem. But had the black screen and no access to the phone during the call. I've not seen this with outgoing calls. I have no trouble to access items on the phone call I have orginate. All the world has noticed this incoming call blocking? It would almost seem that controls spend sleep during incoming calls. I have not found references in this regard so far.

    I found that when the phone is turned off and then back on most of the problems are solved. Since I'm old to computers in general this is not a surprise but falls into the area of practice or standard procedure. I will say that the absence of data loss during these resets is a good thing.

  • Palm Centro 690 - for Verizon

    Hello - I hope someone can help me - I recently received my new Palm Centro Verizon's time which I had for a week now - the problem I encounter is - there are moments that I hit the power button and it lights without problem and there are others that he did a hard reboot - WHY is it that - am I hitting something to turn off completely it?

    There was 2 times already that I have to remove battery and put back on in order to activate the Palm - and

    There has been a couple of times that I've heard almost static, noise and then it goes to a hard reboot-

    Can someone explain to me why this did that?

    Thanks for any help you can offer – I really happy with this unit but if it's something that I can't count on so I'll have to return eventually.

    Thank you all for your help - I don't have your responses so far - but one of the things I did today was to go to verizon and they does not change the phone to me.

    I'm now load - later, I call the 1-800 palm # which is free installation support - I'm nothing to do with this new blow - until I talk with someone, and they also talk through it.

    Thanks again!

  • Updated the Treo 650, Palm Centro, unable to synchronize all the data of the device

    Hello, I bought a new palm centro once my treo 650 took a bath.  I was able to load all my previous data on the new device with no problems, but I've been unable to hotsync since.  If I do a hard reset I can load it all on the property.  The only third party application that I use is datebook5.  I bought the program dbfixit and repaired all the blobs on my calendar entries, but I am still unable to sync anything (even memos, todos, address book, make a pocket computer > computer replacement).  I also deleted my palm desktop user name that I use a new fresh user profile and I still get the same error messages.  I also ran the palmhotsyncsetup.exe of Pimlico software.

    Here is the error message I get:

    Hi jacobkaucher,

    Welcome to the Palm Forums. A quick question for you. Do you use wireless sync to get your email on the phone?

    If you are, then this is your problem. If not, skip the rest of this post. Wireless Sync disables the Palm Desktop software. If you want to get your e-mail and synchronization, I advise to use VersaMail instead. If you really want to use Wireless Sync and still cradle sync, here are steps on how to re-enable the lines: http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=37678. This will allow you to start the synchronization again, but beware, you might start to get copies of your data.
