Hey guys,
I have a very annoying and reproducible problem with my Desire. Everytime I connect the phone via USB (no matter if dock, laptop, wall) it reboots ~2 seconds after removing the USB cable from the phone.
I have had this problem for about 2 weeks now, across 4 or 5 Custom Roms (Sense and Non-Sense) and right now I am on CM6.1 Nightly 214.
It just annoys the crap out of me, for example when I got the Desire in the dock next to my desk and I receive a call, I can only accept the call handsfree, because removing it from the dock would cause a reboot and I would lose the call...
Please give me some kinda advice, I just flashed the latest radio and it worked twice without rebooting and now I'm back to square 1.
All the best,
Paul
Sounds like a faulty battery or some kind of defect at the power supply.
I suggest you try this with another battery, maybe from a friend.
You should check the usb connector on the phone too for some sort of deformation or smudge.
I thought that it could be the usb cable you are using, but since it does the same with the dock, it's not it.
The easiest and the most not likely way to fix it is with the calibration of the battery, if you have luck maybe it's just the OS that errs.
Thanks for your thoughts on my problem. Right now I am waiting for an important call but I got a spare battery from a friend of mine already and will later check and see if the problem occurs with the spare battery as well.
But the other point you mentioned was a calibration of the battery: how exactly do I do that? Just AmonRA Wipe Battery Stats or are you talking about another method?
Cheers for the advice!
this is for the calibration of your battery.

Hi, hope it works with the other battery, otherwise you'll have to send it for repair.
The battery thing I mentioned, has a minimal chance of working, but at least when I am desperate I try things that have even the smallest chance of fixing it. So in essence the process is: charge untill full when powered on; disconnect charger (which will automatically reboot your phone in your case);
don't let it boot, enter hboot for example and turn it off; then charge till full again; now boot into recovery wipe stats; and finally just boot into android.
Another thing worth checking I think is the pins where the battery connects to the phone, they should look clean (I wipe pins with rubber for a pencil) and intact.
Edit:Well seems like Marios already posted a link but mine is specific for your situation
did you solve the problem?
i have the same thing... very strange.
calibrating the battery didn't help.
No, I still haven't found a solution. Strangely though, it doesn't reboot anymore if I charge it via USB on my laptop. On my desktop and via the wall charger it still reboots every time I unplug it. Sorry I can't be of more help
my phone reboots when disconnecting from my laptop too.
even when in recovery, very strange...
have you tried to try the unbricking process with the misc.img?
Actually, I haven't tried that one. Can you give me a link to what you're talking about?
IT WORKED!
http://android.modaco.com/content/h...com/309939/usb-brick-rickrolled-b0rked-fixed/
just flashed the update.zip and i can copy the files to/from my laptop using the usb cable.
and it doesn't reboot when unpluging too
Got the same issue, tried modaco´s workaround, same thing... it started happening after i flashed CWM3.0x wich reovery do u use?
gonna try flashing Ra again and see what happens....
Solved It
Like i said, happened after flashing cw3.x finnaly i got home, flashed RA-desire-v2.0.0-CM again, then flashed update.zip from modaco´s thread, and for now it stoped....
just gonna see what happens when the battery get fully charged....
EDIT: Fully charged 4192mV removed it, and.... nothing happened...
Unfortunately it didn't work for me. Now my phone freezes every now and then when I unplug it
EDIT: IT WORKED, IT WORKED!!!
congrats

NICE....
How did u solved it, u never know.....
I tried all things listed in this thread and some more, too.
But, it still reboots when removing from power supply (pc connection works now).
Perhaps you tried some things not listed here?
I am not sure when the problem started for me.
I installed cm7 nightlies with no reboot-problem, also switched from alpharev1.5 to alpharev1.8 and from cwm2 to cwm3.
All in a few days.
Somewhere along these days the problem appeared.
Btw.:
I got reboots on both kinds of usb connections (PC/power supply).
Debugging connection (adb, fastboot) worked.
Accessing the phone as usb storage device worked, too.
So this may be a little bit different from the cases described in the thread.
To solve the issue, I tried several things:
First I restored older backups (versions of cm7) with no success.
Then I restored my last backup of cm6 nightly from just before cm7, and it didn't work either.
As I was 100% sure that this worked before, I now concentrated on the remaining parts, recovery and boot loader.
So I first tried downgrading to clockworkmod2.
Then I tried updating to a newer alpharev1.8 (as it was a little bit newer than my installed version).
After finding this thread, I became a little happier again...
I applied the fastboot oem ... thingy (hmm, what does it do exactly?).
Then I calibrated my battery, which seemed to work well, as it shows 99% now, which it didn't before.
And at the end I installed the fixmisc-update.zip as linked above.
Between each step I checked if the issue disappeared.
Nothing of those steps completely solved the problem.
However, when disconnecting from PC, the reboots don't appear anymore, so at least something has changed.
So, powlemann, ferreinf and others being successful with the steps above, which configurations do you use now?
Can you tell me which change solved the issue for you?
Do you use alpharev1.5 or 1.8 (and the later from which date) or none of them?
Did you install cwm3 again after solving the problem and did the problem re-appear?
Good News for you, hg42!
I am 99% sure you can fix the problem when first flashing AmonRA recovery and then do Mocados Usb Brick rickrolled.
Do you know how to flash a different recovery?
I fixed it with modaco's zip, that was very annoying!!
Hello!
Strange issue ive got with my DHD. When my phone is switched off and i connecting ac charger it automaticaly switches on and get into Clockwork Reocvery...
Is it normal behavior, and if yes how to avoid it?
Appreciate for any help.
Thanks!
ClockWork bug.
IIRC, this has been fixed in the latest version, but not sure if that is available to ROM Manager yet.

the second stage of charging is just to ensure that phone is at 100% when battery stats are deleted, the phone will charge in recovery (don't believe me install QtADB and you can watch it from the phone info pane) so complete the second stage with the phone in recovery then proceed as per instructions.
BTW the reason for recovery coming up, is HTC use the recovery partition to power up the charging light on the DHD when it is turned off, so it's trying to replicate this behaviour but Clockwork recovery doesn't play ball
Any update on the battery trick in this state?
Right i know ive posted before but i have had a lot more since i posted last and now im in another different situation
About a week ago i was running Hboot 1.28 along with ARHD 12.1(i think)
Randomly during the day changed my gmail account to a different email that went fine
Next i ended up having some random SuperUser commands asking me to do random things that had never seen before so i denied them and my phone was running as normally
Few hours later all my apps started crashing starting with process.com.gapps.process i think? and then everything else crashed
So i thought ahh its just my rom messing about so i wiped and then re-flashed (yes i installed the boot, and wiped properly and didnt install any tweeks) and as it booted up everything crashed and it reboots and bootloops
So i tried a few different roms to see if it would work and i got the same problem on EVERY rom i tired including ARHD MAXIMUS
So i posted on here and was told to reflash hboot up to the latest which i did at the time it was 1.31 and i still had the same problem even when i flashed the recovery boot image and new roms ect
I messaged football on twitter to find out when the latest RUU would be released and waited a few days to flash the latest RUU WWE for JB which was for my CID which is HTC_001 so i flashed that and everything went completely fine so i let my phone boot up and then the same problem happened
I then unlocked it again and left phone charging in recovery over night like i normally do
and now my phone is hard bricked im pretty sure i cant even turn it on?
any ideas?
Ok, so you can't turn it on? That's seems somewhat more important than changing your email account.
So you last had it in recovery (which one? CWM 5.8.4.0?) and it was charging? Then, some time later it was dead, right?
So when you plug it into a usb charger (give it 5 minutes) does the charging light come on? And what about a USB port?

Since you are already unlocked, try to install some ROM.
There has to be something wrong since the problem persists on every ROM.
You sure you wiped everything you can? SD-card also?

I haven't done the SD card, so ill give that a try, so wipe SD card first then put rom ect back on the sd card, then preform full wipe

Flash the boot.img. enter recovery, perform a full wipe there, install the rom.zip
Stuck on the samsung logo.
The battery drained dead, and I waited until I got home to charge it. I plugged it in and the grey battery popped up and a loading wheel, but it froze.
Now it doesn't turn on. I switched batteries and it goes to the samsung logo and sits there. I tried VolUP+VolDown+HOME+Power and All the other button combos and still nothing just goes to samsung screen and reboots, then I notice the led light flashes red very faintly and once quickly then the logo comes back up.
Any ideas?

No I haven't tried to do anything of the sort. I just got this phone when it got released, and haven't explored that much with it yet. It just suddenly doesn't work after the battery drained dead.
I would just go back from where you bought it a get it exchanged then.

My girlfriend drained her battery until the phone shut off. Had to leave it on the charger for almost an hour before it would boot. I thought it should boot as soon as I plugged it in but that's not the case. Try letting it sit and charge for awhile.

Not sure your going to be able to root with a non-booting phone. Here are a couple links about rooting
Chainfire's method you need download mode
mrRobinson's root injected stock Roms, also need download mode
Good luck hope one of these works for you.
Just my $0.02 worth.
My suggestion is make sure you are using the original, Samsung battery. Let it charge for 8 - 10 hours. Take it off the charger, remove the battery from the phone, wait several minutes; then replace the battery and try to boot.
If that doesn't restore, I'd take it back to the store from which you purchased it, and see if a new, oem battery will let it boot. The store should try to do everything they can to help, short of replacing the phone. But it may just be your phone has gone bad -- in which case rooting isn't going to help...
Good luck.

Intall CWM with odin then reboot in recovery and install stock rooted .zip or stock based ROM. Its called a dirty install. You can do this by placing the .zip in a microSD then install from external in CWM. You will end up with all your old crap but the .zip will replace your corrupted files. I recommend you save everthing as soon as it boots and yhen do a clean install of whatever ROM you want even if its stock.

I recently got an AT&T note 2. I rooted and installed cwm recovery. I tried installing Android Revolution HD 5.0 after running their superwipe script. Everything went smoothly except the SIM was not recognized. I couldn't get it to work so I tried 2 other ROMs and I had the same issue. I decided to go back to stock and wait for Cyanogen to release a ROM.
The issue I am having now is that the stock ROM downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2004650 and another stock ROM (KIES_HOME_I317UCALJ2_I317ATTALJ2_215287_REV04_user_low_ship.tar) won't boot. I can successfully push them to the phone from Odin, but then they reboot and get stuck on the Samsung logo. The phone doesn't give any error messages, no strange leds on, no reboots, it just sits there with the Samsung logo pulsing. I can still boot into the download mode (vol down, home, power).
Any advice on how to get to a functoning ROM? At this point I don't care if it is stock or custom, I just need something that works. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You should only flash ROMs from the "AT&T Galaxy Note II Android Development" section. I think Revolution HD is not an AT&T ROM, I don't know about the other ROMs you flashed (as you didn't say what they where). Those ROMs probably flash a non AT&T compatible radio on you phone. You should read and re-read and make sure you know what to do and what ROM can can flash before you start flashing.
Do you have a custom recovery installed, CWM or TWRP? Have you tried using a different computer and different cable?
Maybe try flashing the AT&T modem and them a correct ROM and see if that helps. Honestly, I'm not sure how to help you beyond that.
Good luck...

get yourself a jig dude, if you were really stuck you could have just put that badboy in and it would take you to dl mode, from there you could have odin'd yourself anywhere you wanted to. A thought for next time you get yourself into a situation you think isn't recoverable.
if you are a in a bloop you can usually get to recovery and from there sort yourself out. I know you are ok now, but this may still help someone else.
A jig is like a condom... protection even if you think you don't need it, you should prolly use it.
So I was using my phone normally yesterday, until it shuts down randomly while using the camera. So I restarted it, but it still restarted as I got to my home screen. So I said to myself that there must be something went wrong in the rom that I am using (which is LOS 14.1), but I've got a backup before **** happened, not to worry, after I restored it though, IT STILL RESTARTED, but the weird part is, It doesn't restart if it is charging. So I wondered maybe the battery has given up, but in the TWRP, it doesn't restart even unplugged?
Things that I had tried:
1. Tried a new rom (this time using BORETS ROM), still restarts when unplugged.
2. Ran the backup again, still no change.
3.Drained my battery in TWRP, charged it up to 100%, still restarts.
Also, when I boot up my phone without a USB cable plugged in, It restarts when loading the main rom (the rom's splash screen, not the main splash screen), PLEASE HELP ME.

If its out of warranty , i would first check all connections inside phone ,
it could be battery
it could be main board or usb board.
If it were battery though , it should shut down connected to lower amp pc usb2.
Not much you can do really apart from above, usb boards are cheap`sh to buy, maybe worth the gamble ? Obviously if connections dont fix before ditching if main board. Try a discon of all connections and reconnect before ditching
