Vibrates Twice While Booting - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I Googled around and found nothing about this. My G2 has begun vibrating twice when it boots on the white HTC screen. I'm curious as to what is causing this. It didn't start until CM7 Stable. I flashed Virtuous and it did the same thing. Any ideas?

I had this problem when I flashed a new radio... I cleared my cache and dalvik cache through clockwork and the problem went away by itself
shouldn't hurt to try

I have the same double vibration. It all started on CM7. The only way I found I was able to get rid of it was to go to the stock rom and wipe cache, dalvik cache, and fix permissions. Then reinstall CM7.
I have the same double vibration now on CM7 since wiping the EFS partition for the GPS fix. I have tried wiping caches (including dalvik) and fixing permissions and it hasnt gone away. Too lazy to go back to the stock rom and "fixing" it.

1 do a nandroid backup
2 titanium backup (all apps + user data)
3 factory reset phone
4 download whatever rom you like (cm-7 stable for me) and flash
5 restore apps with tibackup (yay!)
no more double vibrations. it's the only thing that worked for me.

Hmm, I shall try these options. Thanks.

I'm having the same double vibration as well, and I wiped the EFS partition using that new SuperWipeG2 tool. Is there anything to be concerned about with the double vibration? Any idea what it means?

Well, I used SuperWipe+ and installed Virtuous. The double vibration went away when I rebooted and stuff. But when I put CM7 back on it came back. Oh well, I can live with it.

What's the big deal with the double vibration? I have it, nd everything else works fine

Interesting FC issue

Ok, so I am completely dumbfounded by this. Here's the problem. I download an app and in order to use it, I must uninstall then reinstall it. If I try to use it without reinstalling, it just force closes. If it doesn't force close, when I reboot my phone, I lose all the data in the app.
Also, today was trying to access my sound settings and the entire settings force closed. I managed to fix that by clearing the data of the settings within the application manager.
The weird thing is, its not just on one ROM. I have tried CM7 RC1 and RC2, SkyRaider Sense 3.5 and Virtuous 3.2.0
I am currently running SkyRaider. I have the latest recovery. I have tried to do a factory reset.
Any suggestions?

Downgrade the recovery to the 2.x series.

Yeah the SD card is formatted correctly. I have been using the same card since last July. And I don't have any apps on my SD card. I keep them all on my phone.
And I thought that you weren't supposed to use an older recovery?

UPDATE: I seemed to have fixed the problem. Insteadof doing a factory reset from the ROM, I did it from the recovery and it seemed to work. I'm still curiousas to what caused that to happen though...

Because a factory reset from the ROM doesn't wipe /system /cache /data, only your own information. You need to do a full wipe through recovery, just like you figured out
I had the same issue when I first moved to CM7 via ROM Manager. Once I followed the instructions at the start of the nightlies thread things have been perfect.

Cyanogen Mod - Camera just started Force Closing...help?

I've used Cyanogen Mod for quite a while without issue. Then, last week my camera started force closing. So far as I knowing didn't change any settings or install an app that would mess with it. Haven't updated radios, etc...it just stopped. I've cleared the cache in apps settings, there is space on the card.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
clear cache and dalvik from recovery, and reboot. If that doesnt work, you will probably have to reflash the rom.

Shouldn't lose anything, as you are just clearing cache files. However, it can never hurt to do a backup first, only takes a couple minutes.
Ugh. I did a full wipe and upgraded to 7.1 (was on 7.0.2)...Camera is still FC'ing...again, it works with other apps (Vignette, Goggles) but not the stock camera. It worked just fine until two weeks ago...and then, nothing. No clue why. :/
Well, now it works...I did one more wipe and it just started working. Thanks!
Try fix permissions, worked for me

Sent from my Mikrunny'd Superphone using Magic (TapaTalk)
well lets see, i noticed it first on BAMF skyraider zeus, then i moved over to Virtuous Unity, same thing, then i tried Virtuous Affinity, and all of these with several different mod/themes that suppose to get rid of it. Next was PVTeam runnydroid V5.0, one of Newts roms was in there somewhere with several of the flashable themes for his rom, and right now it is the newest version of Coredroid... i have tried everything, and absolutely nothing will get rid of it. its not that i want it gone that bad i just want to know why i cant get rid of it.
ive noticed also that whatever background i had before flashing a new rom, even after formatting cache, data, and system, then doing wipe data and factory reset and wiping cache partition, the new rom always flashes with the old background.

Bootloop after Jedi Mind Trick 3 Install
Performed a full system wipe - Factory Reset/Data Wipe, format /system, Wipe Dalvik Cache - using CWM. Flashed ROM, Fixed Permissions, then rebooted. Waited 10 minutes (actually more like 20 minutes) but was stuck in a bootloop. The loading bar almost completely fills in each time (only a small fraction - i.e. about 0.5mm - remains unfilled) before the reboot occurs automatically. I read else where on the SGH-T989 forum of similar problems with 2.0. Someone said that wiping the data caches before AND after flashing the ROM always works for them. I assume they mean format /data cache and Wipe Dalvik Cache after flashing ROM but I'm not sure. Anyone have any experience here?

If you used anything but jamisons wipes that's your problem.

Thanks. I found the darkside wipe files and downloaded them. Then I read elsewhere that if you have the up-to-date CWM version (6 or later), it will do the same thing accomplished by the darkside wipes. Do you know if this is a fact? Thanks again.

It may work as long as you choose to not wipe the preload. I wouldn't chance it tho...just use jamisons wipes.

(Q) Phone Randomly Decided To Bootloop Today?

Ok I had purchased the ZL battery and have been using it since day 1, however today i got home around 11:25pm. i had put my phone on charge @ 3PM. I just finished my 3rd cycle for the battery so i'd figure its done charging as it indicated it was, and turn it on and now all of sudden constant bootloop out of nowhere.
What could have caused this? it was working just fine before i didn't change anything at all.
I'm Running Stock TW w/Saber Kernel. I had purchased the ZL battery a week ago and ever since no problems, nor did i flash anything at all. I've been on TW way before i even thought of buying the battery.
So what could have caused this to undergo a bootloop session.
I went into recovery and wiped dalvik and cache and still is doing a bootloop. Should i do a factory reset however i have no backup because i have been fine since and I've been on Stock TW figure this wouldn't happen.
This used to happen on my epic if I ever left the battery out too long. I always just reflashed either the rom or the kernel. Worst case scenario you just nandroid and restore data.

Try going into Advanced then format system, data, cache, and dalvik cache.
Then swipe to confirm and repeat this 2 more times for a total of 3 Advanced wipes
If that still doesn't help then follow the same procedure but after performing an Advanced wipe 3x go into Format Data to format your internal storage.

Seems like you already did a full stock restore. I had the same symptoms, different rom tho. Reflashing the rom without wiping allowed me to boot up normally and with all of my data is intact. FYI for next time.
