Hi, hope im posting in the right section.
i have had my desire since it came out , rooted it straight away , flashed loads of diffrent roms (from here) but now all of a sudden my desire has started crashing all the time and when i say all the time i mean about every 15 mins. I take the battrey out, boot use it for a min then when i next go to use it it wont do anything and i have to take the battrey out again and boot.
i have tried lots of diffrent roms it still does the same, i have even tried to run backups from rom manager and still the same. i have run antivirus still the same.
any ideas
thanks
It sounds like a kernel issue (too much undervoling or overclocking maybe, and some ROMs might not contain a kernel image), but first of all it would help us if you told us what ROM you're actually using right now.
Try to flash your sd rom.
If you use a2sd..partition again.
Full wipe again and flash you favorite rom.
If the problem still percist....Flash an official rom better old one 2.1 for no change to newer boot. Test the device if still freeze.
If everything ok, root again your phone ...partition again sd and then flash your favorite rom.
I've been having the same problem mate. Just flashed back to stock 2.1 and all seems fine now. Will reroot later this week and see what happens!

Right sorry for the late reply the misses made me paint the kitchen before the new floor was put in.
well tried everything so then tried flashing back to stock but it carnt find bootloader (using magic mem card)
any more idea's?
ps im using aurxtsense 8.0
i was thinking it was something to do with clocking as well.
mine seams to have calmed down now, it still couldn't find bootloader though when i tried to flash a stock ruu.
i formated my memory card and re-flashed aurxtsense 8.0 and it hasn't crashed since.
haven't tried doing anything since because i aint got time to sit and sort it out at the mo if something goes wrong again
Not sure what the means but you should be able to flash the ruu from HTC or if your phone is branded then one from the network. There's a like to them all in the dev section.
Can tell u though that I flashed back to stock and had no problems. Bit since rooting again its back. Even wiped my SD card and recreate the partitions. Doesn't seem as frequent this time though. I went straight to a hd Rom. It never used to happen on older custom roms and do think its something to do with the volting & clocking.

Hi people,
I'm pretty new at this, altough this device is my second android smartphone. My first was an LG GW620(rooted and cyanogenmod) now I have the Wildfire (already rooted).
Before I will use custom roms I would love to ask you some questions, because I had a lot of problems with the cyanogen mod on my LG. (Radio FM didn't work, bluetooth, camera, ect..)
Wile rooting my Wildfire, I did a backup with the Clockworkmod Recovery (nandroid I presume) but I am a bit of a noob when it's about backing up and "restoring" it to the same state as before the custom ROM. So I would like to know if indeed I can restore it to the same state (rooted, Android 2.2.1, software 2.22.405.1) and how axactly to do that?
Also, will I have the same problems again with the cyanogen MOD like before?
And last but not least :
What is the current best suited custom ROM to use on this device (hopefully bug-free ^_^) ?
(I did a search and found an old thread (2010) asking for the best rom suitable for the wildfire, so I wanted to create a new one)
Thank you for your help and your input!
With regards, xXxeXtreme
PS.: Sorry for any spellingerrors, still need to install an english spellcheck on this b0x :>
...I'll do that right away ;-)
/ Not 1 more thread like this. Sigh
Anyways, the answer depends on whether you like HTC Sense or not. If you can answer this with 100% surety, you can choose your Custom ROM more easily. CM7 for the Wildfire has come a long way from CM6, and, doesn't have the problems you listed. (FM Works, Cam works, Video Recording works, BT works - BUT, with an additional app called Bluetooth File Transfer installed, else, it may cause issues)
If you cannot live without Sense and its apps (Like Contacts and Dialer), then look at Sense based ROMs like JokerDroid, WildPuzzle, DK Custom ROM etc.
The entire listing can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1029318
There is no definitive answer to what is the best ROM. Every member will have their own opinion, based on what suits them. No ROM is 'universally' good. Infact, many have given up root and gone back to the Stock ROM, because that is what suited them ultimately.
Nandroid Restores can be done from the same menu where you backed up. When you backed up, you must have noticed another option called "Restore". Nandroid Backups are restored from there. Make sure that you do NOT rename the backup folder on your SDCard, nor move it to any other location.
Wow, that was fast thanks for the reply.
I did notice the restore option, but I wanted to be 100% sure that that would indeed revert things to its stock state. And although the Sense is great, fast and ...
I do long for the CyanogenMod's hugely configuration options. So I think I will go for that.
I'll let you guys know how it turned out
Greetz,

Hmmm... I installed ROM Manager premium and through there I downloaded the CyanogenMOD 7.1.0-RC1, wiped the Dalvik cache and installed it.
When it tried booting, it looked like it got stuck in an boot-loop, it froze and booted again, over and over again.
I'm now trying to restore my last backup, hopefully it will work.
Any ideas? Has this happened to anyone?
Grtz,
xXx
EDIT: I thought of something, I wanted to keep my apps, contacts, ect.. so I 'only' wiped the dalvik cache, nothing else.
Could this be what caused the boot-loop?
EDIT2: Ooooh yes, the ROM Manager premium did a complete backup, and my is back just like it was when I backupped YIIHAAAA (...yeah, I was a bit affraid there ^_^ )
Strange thing though, when I started the phone with volume-down, power button, then did a backup from there, it did'nt backup data and all. only the system. How does that come? (PS.: I used revolutionary to S-Off)
EDIT3: Yups; that did the trick. Wiping all of the data before flashing the mod was what I did wrong. Now it boots up perfectly
It's necessary to perform a full wipe before installing a new ROM. (Not applicable for updates to an existing ROM, like CM RC1 to a new nightly). Else, you are going to end up in a bootloop.
best rom hhhmmmmm ?
No one can tell you whits is the best rom. It is up to you. Whits phone is the best ????
I use hell fire and love it. It is smoot easy and beautyfull. I have not found anything whits not function. Then it maybe should bee me. But no rom can change that.
If you looking for the orginal rom to buzz (wildfire) look here. Here is a gooooood webpage.
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...5.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed.exe
You can find a lot of orginal roms here with a lot of language.
I my self is pretty new to this game. But I have just boyed a cheep phone and start playing. It is a nice and safe way to learn.
I have tryed a lot of the roms and found that if you take your time and let the phone rest in peas wheil it work nothing gos wrong. As the guy up mention wipe everything before flash. Take your time and maybe a cup of coffe and you are playing the best computergame ever.
Have a nice time with the nerves on edge.
Since rooting my Wildfire and installing CM-7 I have had major problems. Among these are:
Phone note detected by HTC Sync
Screen lock not working
Home button (Up Arrow) not working
Advice on getting these problems sorted would be very much appreciated. If it can't be fixed where can I find a Froyo rom image to downgrade again?
Shipped roms are here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275680
I've never user HTC sync so can't comment on that but try this for the other problems. Reboot phone into recovery, make a nandroid backup, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache (in advanced menu I think), flash stable version of cm7 again. If you want to backup your apps first use titanium.
1.HTC does not work on cm7
2.more info !!
3.Home button issue is found under home button binding settings ( I think its in launcher settings etc) I'm on sense Rom so can't check at moment.
Jokerdroid
Yeah actually why do you want to downgrade? Just try another Rom. Jokerdroid as mentioned by slymobi is a great rom

There are loads of roms to try (including jokerdroid). My personal advice if you want to minimise problems is always backup then wipe data, cache and dalvik cache before flashing any new rom.
Have fun

Just for clarification: If you root your phone and gain s-off you make your phone your own. This is the opposite concept to the one you follow when you have a phone with everything stock
The advantages are that you can decide what you want to install on your phone and how it will behave/act. Due to these facts you probably will have to do a few things/settings/configs manually because they're not done automagically with some bloating wizards (or even in the background).
Without any further information it pretty much looks to me that there are no problems at all. Just a question of configuration.
If you're new to custom ROMs I (personally) would suggest to stick with CM7 until you got an idea of the concept (because it's a very stable and highly/easily configurable ROM).
For the home button (BTW it's a house - not an arrow...) slymobi's suggestion should help. You could define the button's behaviour in settings / ADW settings. Lockscreen also could be set up in settings. Although LeWa, my current ROM, is based on CM7 it's not the same in menus - perhaps someone on CM7 could jump in and help
BTW: which version of CM7 are you using? I recommend 7.2 stable - all versions could be found here: CyanogenMod Downloads
If you don't want to play with CM7 because of the HTC sense missing: there are also some sense ROMs (if I'm correct Rempuzzle is the most stable? No sense fan here, sorry) and you could even flash the stock ROM if I'm correct - no need to downgrade...

I am using CM7 currently. First of all, HTC Sync WILL NOT work with CM7 as it is not an HTC ROM. 2nd, what is the problem with the screen lock? And which version of CM have you flashed? I am currently on CM7.2 Stable which is the most stable and most customizable ROM for our willy. For home button customization go to Settings>Input.(also try launcher settings from menu>home as suggested by slymobi.
Hope this'll help you.
OK, so here is a little more info...My phone is flashed to Cricket carrier. I have spent the last 3 days flashing the **** out of my phone trying different roms,addons, tweaks etc. All the while making sure to wipe Dalvic, and regular caches in between each flash. I am thinking maybe something more than what i am seeing is borked. Could doing a more thourough odin flash help me out? Maybe wiping partitions? A reset pit file? Someone with some insight and more experience with odin may chime in on this one.
Restored my Nandroid backup. Which is CM 10.1 Wild for the night. Now I had everything running buttery smooth on this nandroid except Hdmi mirroring. I have done lots of testing on this rom. The Huge problem now is it restored perfectly with everything running great but, now I know I borked the Gyroscope!!! Has to be that because I have no screen rotation with my nandroid backup now!! WTF???
No matter what rom i flash or how i flash it..., odin, one click, CWM, mobile odin pro, no flash has corrected my auto rotate feature since i flashed the universal Speed Daemon tweak for both touchwiz and AOSP roms!!! Help!!!!
First, this is the Android Development section. You can not post anything other than development in this section. Only ROMs, tweaks, etc go in this section. Questions/problems go in Q&A.
And second, my gyroscope messed up a few months ago as well. It will fix by itself (or at least mine did). Just give it time. If not, then just wipe data and flash a new ROM (or the same one) but make sure to make a backup of your apps before you do it.
Next time, please post in the Q&A section if your phone isn't working properly and need help.

It's probably been looked at but if not you'll want to double-check that auto-rotate is enabled in settings.

Hello,
I had a problem with my HTC desire 300 and I took it to a servis, there they put the cwm on my phone but my wifi isn't working, or its working a little bit and then it says that I can't connect.
So, I'm new here and I don't understand all the words here and I'm confused, so can you please explain me how to restore my htc to stock rom?
Interesting, I didn't even know my thread had a Q&A section
May I ask what was wrong with the phone before you had it serviced?
So the service center unlocked your bootloader and flashed a custom recovery?
They deliberatly voided your waranty? This sounds wrong on so many levels, please tell me you gave them permission to do so.
cwm is clockworkmod recovery btw and you are asking in the cm10 thread, does that imply that they also flashed this rom?
I don't know what to say to this except get your money back and/or sue them unless you actually asked them to do so.
Flashing a userdebug build on an enduser phone in a service center without being asked to do so is criminaly negligant imho.
The wifi in this rom is working fine (at least in the latest available build) so it might also be a hardware problem.
Could you tell me the version number of the rom you have on your device? (Settings->About Phone->CyanogenMod version)
To return to stock you would need the backup of your original rom and use cwm to restore the device.
That's why the OP includes a reminder that you should always make a backup before flashing a different rom.
There are no official htc RUUs available for this device, so without that backup you are out of luck.
I couldn't turn on my phone, it was stuck with the HTC logo, so I took it to the service and they told me it was a software problem and that they can fix it. After fixing it wifi worked 3-4 days and then stopped, all passwords are forgotten and its says '' Failed to connect network''. I know that its the clockworkmod when I press volume down and power.
When I go to recovery it says cwm advanced edition 5 cwm base version v6.0.3.7 philZ
I'm sorry If I asked in the wrong field but I'm so frustrated and just want my wifi to work somehow..
I don't mind you asking. I was just surprised to get a pm from a bot saying that my thread now has a Q&A.
I'm glad to see that it's still the stock rom you are on. But I don't know why it would bootloop or suddenly loose wifi.
Just out of curiosity, is the bootloader still locked? And is it the broken philz recovery with the graphical glitches that crashes on exit?
I don't understand why they would need to change the recovery. If the device is not repairable via factory reset or original recovery.
They should've just sent it in to htc for a replacement unit.
There are 2 things you can try now:
Try the factory reset option in the bootloader and if it doesn't work get in contact with htc customer support.
or
Replace the recovery, backup your system, check if wifi works in the cm10 rom and if it doesn't work
then reflash your backup before asking the htc customer support for assistance.
But be aware that the more you mess around with the device the less inclined htc will be willing to help you without charging you for the repair.
I tried the factory reset and nothing happens, still no wifi.
How can I replace the recovery?
Thank you!
First you need to set up your pc so it can communicate with the device via the android debug bridge.
There should be many tutorials on how to do that on this site. Just find one that explains how to get adb and fastboot working.
Since your radio and build version are different then mine I'd like to be on the safe side since I don't know what the service center did.
So activate the usb debug in the stock rom, and open a terminal.
Type: "adb shell" to connect to your phone and then type "cat /proc/emmc" and post the output here.
It should look something like:
Code:
dev: size erasesize name
mmcblk0p17: 000ffa00 00000200 "misc"
mmcblk0p34: 00fffe00 00000200 "recovery"
[...]
thank youuu so much I will try it..
I'll take it to the service again, and I'll let you know what he told me about the new recovery, and the wifi and everything that he made on my phone :crying:
Don't forget to ask them why they think it would be better to void a customers warenty by unlocking the bootloader,
instead of using it to get the manufacturer to replace the device if it's broken.
just to let you know that I took my htc to the service again, and they told me that the wifi is broken and they need to change the wifi chip or card I think...
Google Play has stopped working
Hi guys.
I have problem with Google play. I have instaled gapps for CM 10 (downloaded from cyanogen wiki). Everything works (youtube, gmail, google music, google sync,...) except Google play store...
Gapps was instal via recovery.
I tried to donwload only Google play app, but it get : Android App Not Install. An existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed.
Did anybody has same problem?
Thanks
Hi,
Just flashed the ROM on my girlfriend's phone and I gotta say its pretty nice she's quite happy with it and I gotta say it made her phone a lot faster so thanks for that from her ill keep an eye on it to see if she experiences any problems and let you know.

So far you are the first with such a problem. I can only assume that you grabbed the wrong gapps version.
In order to start fresh you'll have to do a full wipe (format system & data) because gapps will persist if you simply reflash the rom.
hello,
can you please upload the source of your rom to github?
thank you
Progress?
2 problems
day 2 of testing. nice work, thank you for providing this custom rom. signal strength is an issue. but battery usage is normal. I have two problems:
1. the weather does not display on lock screen.
2. google or other location based services cannot identify my location.
3. When I try to install Facebook app, it says this version of android is not supported.
can you please help me on this?
I have been using this ROM for a while, I have to say it was a horrible thing to install (not because of the ROM though, my phone doesnt read the internal SDCard in recovery.) and I have not had any issues apart from one which I will get to later, than you OP for making this, now what we need is a custom kernal to overclock this sadly weak phone.
CyanogenMod runs so much better than Stock sense 5, but I have a issue when exiting or entering apps, it will get a certain area of the frame and make a grid, this also sometimes happens while changing rotation, however it is alright to live with.
We need a cyanogenmod 11/12 port now

i'm willing to make cm 12 for this device as i own it, but HTC hasn't released the kernal source as of yet and i don't think they will at all.
if they do, send me a message and i'll start to port cm 11 or 12 and an overclocked kernel
app2sd
hi
i installed and used this rom for about a month and it was really OK. thanks
but the only thing that needed is Move2sd option in app settings and i dont know how to enable it, the 2 gig internal memory really bothers!
thanks again for your attention
Its a great rom just a pity that libaudio is not working as normal
