[Q] Huge Problem with Camera - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
i have a problem, well 2 problems with my Desire.
First thing i had was permanently rebooting after installing InsertCoin Sense 2.1.
I tried everything that came to my mind (redownloaded, wiped multiple times, repartitioned SD card, different recoveries, and so on) problem was still there. It booted until the lockscreen appears, and after some seconds rebooted again.
Then i switched back to Oxygen, which i was using before.
Everything went well, but then Camera doesn't work. Just starts a black screen, and nothing happens after that.
i have to reboot the device after camera fail, because it drains my battery even after stopping service, i don't know why.
I wiped, reflashed, but still the same problem. I also changed to CM7 to test it, but same problem there
tried some radios, and different kernels...nothing works.
Here some information : HTC Desire amoled, s-off, radio 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advance

Try going back to stock with proper RUU.
It sounds like a hardware problem, but try the stock way first, just to be sure

Thank you.
It definitely was a hardware problem.
changed to ruu, but was still the same.
i sent it in now, and am on a nokia n86. So funny to see how much changed since then

Touchsreen doesnt Work anymore

Hey guys.
Maybe somebody could help me with my problem. I debraned my DHD from T-mobile some month ago... rooted it, installed Bootloader, Rom Manger and Clockwork recovery...
all works fine... then i installed Leedroid 2.3.2.. all worked fine, system was stable.
Then some weeks ago, i noticed, that my touchscreen doenst work anymore... I turned the phone off, took the accu out w8 some mins, rebooted over CW.. then it wokred again...
today i got a phonecall, wanted to take it... again... no reaction from the touchscreen or the keys down.... i tried all today, wiped all data, did a recovery, installed new ROM's.. nothing worked.. the volume buttons and the power button did work... i dunno what to do anymore?
Maybe anbdy got some ideas?
Greetz
I would suspect LeeDroid, has issues. Have been hearing a variety of issues....
When you said installed new ROM's, does that mean different ROMs, versions of Leedroid, or what?
first of all i reinstalled, the current leedroid... doesnt work
then i wiped all data and installed MIUI... system, all is working fine (it seems so)
but the touchscreen still doenst work...
i read something about to install a RUU rom.. but that wasnt based 100% on my problem
nobody got any idea ? :-(
If its not a software problem.. than you can try some hardware stuff....
take any hair dryer and .. blow some hot air on the screen boundries... and just press it ....not too hard, just a bit softly.. as if you are trying to stick screen back. This might help you... Please try this at your own risk
Just a note: This is the Desire forum, not the Desire HD

[Q] Insertcoin HTC Desire - No Lockscreen

I have flashed Insertcoin on my Desire this morning. It worked perfectly, but for some reason it doesn't display a lockscreen. When I want to unlock my phone I am presented with an empty screen.
If I reboot my phone, it hangs at the HTC or Insertcoin splash screen.
I tried to restore to the stock rom and then reflashing, but I get the exact same problem (no lockscreen).
Please help, this is the first time I flash a rom on my phone (I only rooted yesterday), so I am pretty lost. Any help appreciated.
I had this issue; think it was something I did with the SD Card & partition.
I ended up wiping everything and starting again.
Ok, I guess I did something wrong there. I also wiped everything and started over. It works now, thanks.

[Q] Desire reboots

Hi people!
My HTC Desire has a annoying problem, being that it reboots spontaneously.
Well, maybe not really spontaneously.
I believe that it reboots when I (should) receive a call or message, maybe also with push notifications, but that I don't know.
I tried but can't reproduce the problem by calling or texting myself with another phone. But I does happing when people call or text me, not always tho.
With 2G only of Wifi, I have not experienced the problem.
It began while being on MIUI (with a 3th latest radio or so/beta/nog directly after a update). Because MIUI began to irritate me with its speed and bug now and then, I wiped it all and flashed CM7.1 STABLE, incl latest radio, and installed my apps again.
Still reboots.
Flashed a way older radio. Still reboots.
Pretty important, it does NOT get hot.
Facts:
- 3G off, not experienced a problem
- when 3G off, sometimes no signal
- does not get hot
- different radio's, different roms
- slipt out of my hands and fell in a bath, got I out before it even hit the bottom. This happened two of three 2 days before the problems began
I read about HTC reboot problems on Vodafone NL a while ago.. I am on this network, but the posts are not recent..
I read about HTC Desire reboot problems while using the phone, after it's getting hot (2010 posts).
I did had reboots a few months earlier, but that was a bug on MIUI.
Anyone an idea what the problem is?
Make a complete backup and change rom. If problem persits, go back to stock. If desire still reboots, call HTC.

@OP Try a different ROM.. try both AOSP and Sense, if you still get the issue try return it to stock (RUU) and see if problem persists.. if it does then it's a hardware problem and call HTC.
Change rom

I was having reboot problems with LeeDroid. Installed Tristan202's kernel, fixed it right up.
Are you undervolting or overclocking? That can cause random reboots when the system can't distinguish the actual signals from the random noise and interference, wither because it's too fast (overclocked too high) or too weak (undervolted too low). Bump up the voltage and/or reduce the clock speed a little, and see if that helps.
I didn't do anything with the clockspeed or so. The max CPU frequency is adjustable in CM7, but left it on 998MHz. I'll try 1075 now?
The link to Leedroid is a froyo. But I like gingerbread. HTC even made a gingerbread rom (available on htc dev center).
And the phone had worked normally on gingerbread.
An other problem I had for a longer time.
Sometimes the phone only uploads and doesn't download (as I can see by watching the arrows). So I internet connection doesn't work then. Putting it on flightmode and back does solve the problem.
The tristan kernel:

I've got same problems. After rooting my HTC Desire and installing Revolution ROM, it has worked well for about 24h, then i was surprised with disappearing all my data (contacts, messages, settings, was needed to log in back to google, sync was off), so i set up everything again, after few hours of normal work, i noticed that i have to enter SIM card PIN code. ok, done. After few more hours SIM card PIN code again. So i reflashed with another custom ROM and phone started to reboot each time at SIM card pin code enter screen, or after finishing booting. Few minutes ago i tryed to reflash with another ROM, which i used to have few months ago and which was pretty stable (Reflex), and now im stuck at HTC boot logo
HBOOT 0.93
Radio 5.11.05.27
Use a RUU, make sure it's the right one for your phone or that you have a goldcard.
I would try Oxygen Rom, it happened to me in the past but it was fixed a bunch of releases back.
Hmm,. running on 1075Mhz now and no reboots since.. while being on 3G and receiving a few calls and (whatsapp) messages.
I don't want to bump into conclusions to fast, but at least it's remarkable.
Or my phone is dryed up.
(@random_factor?) IF the 1075Mhz setting is the solution, how is that possible??
And I just hit the trackball to enter my phone and tadaaaa: reboot
RUU Bravo flashed.. First flashed hboot stock. Still on alpharev bootloader and S-OFF, so if phones still reboots, I must not forget to flash the stock bootloader... hehe. I will post the results ofcourse of the stock rom ofcourse.
[EDIT]
Being on stock rom/radio, I just had another reboot. Guess it's safe to say it's a hardware problem..
1Ro try to install non-A2SD Rom. it'd worked for me.
Funkypotatoe, I've installed the RUU for my phone. So I'm on the original froyo with original radio, so no a2sd and I'm not using android's original apps2sd now.

yeah, call HTC and request a pickup, hopefully you'll get a Desire S
also make sure your bootloader is back to stock (did you flash the downgrader before you ran the RUU?) if you've just got everything stock after the RUU, apart from the bootloader (if you're still S-OFF), go to my guide and there's a section about still s-off after RUU, do the 2nd method since it's quicker and safer..... and if you're already S-ON just ignore everything I've said and call HTC
Yes I'm still S-OFF.
I've checked your guide: Nice work!
I in doubt of if I should send it to HTC, because of the water incident. There are little white strips in the phone and on the battery that turn red when in contact with water.
The strip on the battery is redish, just from wiping it with a 'wet' towel (there were here and there little drops of water). The visible strip in the phone is still white. Don't know if there are more strips inside the phone. I would suck if I send to phone for warranty, and get as a result: waterdamage, 35 euro research costs.

[Q] My DHD keeps crashing and rebooting, but only when the screen is locked...

Hello!
For some time now my phone's been rebooting itself completely random it seems. I just got it back after sending it away to get this issue fixed. Obviously the "repair" didn't really do anything at all. All they did was to flash the latest software apparently.
I got quite fed up with the crashing and rebooting stuff, and figured that it wouldn't hurt to try to flash a custom ROM, in this case I chose to root the phone and try MiUi. I had no clue wether it would solve the issue I'm having, but I figured it was worth a try. So i rooted the phone and flashed the latest version of MiUi (1.11.18).
At the start it seemed like it had worked, and had stopped the phone from crashing. But after some time I realized that the issue is still there, only difference now is that it ONLY crashes when I lock the screen with the Power-button. EVERY SINGLE TIME I do this, in a matter of minutes it will either reboot or just turn black and totally unresponsive. Only way to get it on again is to take out the battery and put it back in.
This is starting to annoy the **** out of me, so I talked to my brother for advise this morning, and he told me to wipe my Dalvik Cache. So I did, and nothing changed, the phone keeps on living it's own life.
I have absolutely no clue what info you guys might need to help me with this, but I'll start with this:
Phone: HTC Desire HD
Android-version: 2.3.7
Kernel-version: 2.6.35.14-cyanogenmod-g319b6e2
ROM: MiUi 1.11.18
Also, the motherboard's been switched once, cause of another issue that is now gone.
ANY help is appreciated, I just want to be able to use the phone normally!
EDIT: Also it seems that the phone won't reboot or crash whenever it's charging.
Sounds like a hardware/software issue your best bet is getting a replacement and re rooting .

Random reboots // Not receiving calls

Hey guys, its my first post on here and I was hoping to get some help with my device. (Yes, I've searched extensively over the internets. No, I can't find anything related to this issue for the One X)
So let me start from scratch. About a month or so ago, my phone started rebooting randomly, I have been using ViperX 2.7.1 by Team Venom since day one of getting my phone and only started experiencing these issues after upgrading my hboot to 1.31, switching to MaXimus and returning back to ViperX. If it was the occasional reboot, I wouldn't be half as annoyed as I am this very moment. Unfortunately, my phone does not ring when I get a call. Does not ring, screen doesn't even turn on, does not notify, nothing. I called it from another number, did not ring, tried turning the screen on, did not turn on, just rebooted. This does not happen all the time, but has been happening a lot recently. So far, I have fresh installed ViperX numerous times, (wiped cache, factory reset, wiped dalvik cache and full wiped from the ViperX aroma installer) thought maybe an app was misbehaving so fresh installed from the play store instead of Titanium Backup. Even tried switching ROMS but I can't for some reason. Tried installing CM10 the other day, didn't go past the white screen. The good people on androidforums.com told me that I need a different boot.img for newer hboots so I got that, but the CM ring at startup freezes followed by a reboot. Switched to ViperX 3.2 (JB) couple days back hoping this issue wouldn't follow me here as well, but alas, it still has. Then yesterday, I thought upgrading my hboot and wiping my phone the way up'ing the firmware does might fix it, so I up'ed my hboot to 1.39. (strangely though, I still have my files on my sdcard) I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1920060 Only step I couldn't follow was the adb reboot oem-78, I got some strange error (did not happen when I up'ed to 1.31) After getting 1.39, I flashed ViperX 3.2 again but I still have this error.
I'm completely out of ideas and am really close to giving up and selling my phone. Any help/advice on what I could do would be greatly appreciated!

Woah, no way. Is that it? It worked perfectly fine before I up'ed my hboot to 1.31 (always used the AOSP lockscreen). Have you encountered a similar issue? I'm trying this out now, will keep you posted.
