Hey guys, so i was listening to some music, and i got the 15% warning. About 10 seconds after that, i get the less the 1% warning and the phone starts shutting down. What do you guys think the problem might be?
Which rom do you have one your device ?
Try to calibrate your battery:
Instructions
1. Turn your phone on and charge it for 8 hours or more
2. Unplug the charger
3. Turn your phone off and charge it for one hour
4. Unplug the charger
5. Turn on the phone and wait 2 minutes
6. Turn your phone off and charge it for one hour
7. Unplug, turn it on and use as normal. Your battery life should now be a lot better
You only need to do this once. If you keep experiencing issues with your battery you should contact HTC or your network provider for support.

Is your battery health still "good"? Type *#*#4636#*#* in dial> "battery information">"battery health"

I have stock froyo and my battery says its "good". thanks matdroid, im gonna try to calibrate it. ill post back with results.
If calibration fails try to wipe battery stats in recovery. This issue has been reported before so don't worry.
ok so the calibration didnt work, and i cant find the option to clear battery stats in recovery. is it possible on stock recovery?
Just uninstall facebook-app and tell us, if problem is solved.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
hey, so i tried to uninstall the Facebook app, but since it came with the stock ROM it only allowed me to uninstall the updates and not the entire app, didnt work in the end.
Was wondering if you guys can help me get this thing rooted so i can get clockworkmod and wipe the battery stats.
Whenever i try to root, it just stops at "waiting for bootlodader, make sure you have driver installed". Any help would be much appreciated.
It happened to me once. I just rebooted the phone and it never happened again.
How to root
@androiderer:
I do not consume any accountability for any damage
First make sure, what hardwarerevision your desire have. To find out, start your phone in bootloader (press vol-button + power button for a while) and read the first line.
If you have a pvt4 desire, you have to download amonra:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/attachm...-0-0-14-11-2010-recovery-ra-desire-v2.0.1.zip (just save, do not extract)
Then do the following:
1.) Make sure, HTC sync is installed
2.) If you flash with windows, install necessary hboot drivers:
http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install
3.) When finished, disconnet the phone from usb
4.)Settings for the desire:
Menu>Settings>Appliations>check "unknown sources" and under development check "usb-debug mode"
Menu>Settings>Applications>check "unknown sources" and uncheck "ask for it"(or something like this)
5.) Reboot phone
6.) Uninstall only htc sync, NOT THE DRIVERS and reboot computer
7.) Download unrevoked: http://downloads.unrevoked.com/recovery/3.32/Reflash.dmg
Then install and start it
8.) If you have a pvt4 desire, press "File>Custom Recovery" and choose the downloaded amonra-recovery
9.) Connect phone with USB
10.) WAIT....WAIT....WAIT....WAIT until unrevoked says "Done"
11.) Congrutaltions, your phone is rooted
Important Notice: Do not install an OTA-Upate, this will remove root

Same problem, but at 10%, wiping stats didn't help, running Leedroid 3.0.5, S-Off. battery health is good in that 4636 thing.

morning guys/gals,
last night i put my phone to charge, woke up this morning and turned on the screen and it said "no sim card detected, reboot device". Now when I rebooted the device all I get is 5 vibrates and the green led light stays on. Screen stays blank!!. I tried battery pull several times, tried vol-down + power but all I get is the vibration with the screen off and the led on.
When I hook my phone to the laptop I can't access it via fastboot/adb, it shows up as "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM" with a yellow exclamation mark in the device manager. I tried forcing different drivers on it (e.g. adb composite, bootloader) but none let me access the device via cmd.
Now I got clockwork, running latest android revolution 2.0.8, device is radio-soff and eng-soff.
What am I to do now? Is there possibly a hardware fault? If I cant get to access to the device to restore it to stock, I'm going to struggle to get the device replaced, isnt it?
any help is very much appreciated!!!
What ROM were you running on it Prior to this happening?
was there any apps running in the background?
the Vol - + Power should get you into bootloader, if you cant get into bootloader I would be tempted to say fooked, and take it back to the shop as they wont be able to boot it either,, but thats the defeatist attitude...

ok very strange, I was playing i around with the phone, now if I pull the battery and connect it to the usb cable the light went red instead of green and it automatically booted in clockworkmod (thanks to the "bug"). vol down + power didnt get me there so once I was in clockwork I thought let me wipe battery stats (eventho I wiped them when rom was freshly installed). I thought the device is unplugged but the green light stays on (after full charge), maybe battery issue. Now after wiping battery stats I'm able to boot the device again.
Thats weird but hey atleast my device is back on track. Either faulty battery or some software bug, either way if anyone experiences a similar issues (phone wont boot, just vibrates 5 times and green led), just pull battery, connect phone to usb cable on your laptop or wallcharge and clockwork should boot up, wipe battery stats and u should be fine
You gotta love that ClockWorkMod recovery image

- Plugged in charger, pulled in battery, (orange light was turned), then after 25 sec I pressed the Power button - and Voila! My Phone started as normal.
I diden't need to do any "Wipe battery status", but after reading about it I did it anyway. It was'nt necessery though in my case.
THanks a lot you guys for your replys! I thought for sure my phone was dead.
try sptool to format your phone except the boot loader then try to flash the phone, if its not working then change the mother board !!!!!

10. Wen I connnected to charge, no LED, nothing
IS MY DHD DEAD? PLEASE HELP!
PLEASE IF THERE IS ANYWAY YOU CAN HELP ME, I WILL BE GRATEFUL.
Thanks for your time.
If it really does not do anything when you pull the battery out, put it back in and connect your charger, things don't look so good. I think that your CPU did not like overclocking very much.. Try the charger trick, and if it fails try holding vol- and holding power button.
try connecting the charger and see if cwm doesnt start up, from there you could connect it to your computer and mount the sd card and transfer a different rom to it
I hope you´ve done a nandroid backup. try to connect to charger, wait a bit and try to go into CWM.
then you should be able to flash your backup or even another rom.
If its working again you should be very careful with those overclocking thingy mate
Maybe you overheated your cpu, try remove the battery and let it cool down about 1-2 hours.
Hi All
First thanks for a very good and informative forum.
======================
This was my first post/question and was placed in wrong section. Now it replaced. - Sorry for that!
======================
Information:
HTC Desire
rooted
S-OFF
EXT4 recovery
rom: runnymix...
sd-card partioned(by EXT4 recovery)
AMOLED
Motherboard and ribboncable was changed one month ago on warranty.
Symtpoms:
- Charges normally: orange charging/green full charge. Flashing orange/green without battery
- Cant NOT boot at all
- cant get into bootloader vol down + pwr
- can not be detected buy PC
- Battery inserted and charging: When pressing power to turn on => charge light goes off - and nothing happens. Leaving it in this condition for a while: the phone(mainboard) gets warm.
The phone was functioning perfectly before my son installed bootmanager app. He uninstalled the bootmanager app again without making any changes to the phone. It took long time (like freezing), so he did pull the battery out!!
Any help? Tried a lot of searches, none of them was as my problem.
Thank you
Hi! Have you tried to leave the phone without the battery for 1-2 minutes and tried a reboot?
Take the battery out, unplug it, hold power for 30 secs to get any remaining juice out.
Leave the phone for 24 hours (with battery out etc.)
Stick the battery back in, try again.

What would be the cause for such a behaviour? I'm a little curious (and relatively new to the android scene)!
OT: I've took a look to your troubleshooting guide, good job indeed!

Really no idea, and what I told you to do is not guarantee'd to work, it may help though.
And thanks, it sure has cut down repeat posts about repeat problems by about 90% here.
Thank you all for your replies.
I did leave the phone without battery for several days - same problem.
But I did not try to press the pwr for 30 secs without battery. I will try when I get home.
I tried following:
- take battery out and reset it. then hold vol dwn + pwr -> Nothing
- take battery out and reset it. then hold back + pwr -> Nothing
By the way, if I press pwr to turn phone on, it does not come up, but leaving it for a while it gets warmer.
It looks like the CPU is trapped in a loop and running at full speed!
Could a riff box repair it?
do a battery pull then hold back & power. That usually boots into fastboot mode, see if the phone is recognised with
Code:
fastboot devices
if it is run the 2.3 RUU.
Dear bortak
I have tried. It does not enter fastboot.
command "fastboot devices" returns blank.
command "adb devices" returns empty list
command "adb reboot-bootloader" givers "device not found error"
RUU gives usb error.
have you installed the proper drivers on your pc for it to connect with the phone?
If so, when you attempt boot into fastboot and connect your phone through USB do you get the "device connected to windows" sound, like when plugging in and external driver or usb?
Because if not even that sound gets played it most likely means that your phone isn't even able to get into fastboot or hboot...
windows does NOT play any "device connected to windows" sound at all.
I have all drivers installed correct on my windows 7. My other HTC devices (desire s, wildfire, wildfire s) connects correctly to the PC and I can get the serial numbers of them using "fastboot devices" command.
Now on work, I tried a windows XP - same problem no connection - no sound.
This desire does NOT get into hboot nor fastboot. I think taht the "bootsector" is correpted.
I even used a Goldcard (made thru wildfire) - not working either.
So fixing it thru USB the normal way is not working.
Is there any way to force the device to boot up from SD card??
I have several backups of the phone system on my 8GB SD card.
You have to find a way to re-flash the hboot. That causes the blank screen display. May be a bad hboot install or something :0 Unless you have S-off and can be detected in fastboot, you can reflash hboot, otherwise you will have to try the blind flash method using PB.IMG. Best I could think of.
Sent from my PB99400 using XDA
@Jonicraw, thank you for your suggestion.
Where to get the HBOOT PBxxxx.IMG for this desire?
And how to flash it blindly, since I have black screen and no connection to PC.

Same s**t for me ... I tried everything you try and no results !
Come on experts ... somebody must have knowledge to fix this common problem.
What about an "Unbrick Jig" like the one for samsulng galaxy:
MICRO USB JIG DOWNLOAD MODE DONGLE FOR SAMSUNG GALAXY S2/I9100/I9000
This device may force the cpu to boot from usb, getting it in "boot flashing" condition.

No such things exists for the Desire.
Tell me what state the phone is currently in now?
Yet no solution for this problem...
STATUS for my device is:
Problem solved by changing the motherboard.
I hoped we could find a good solution for this.
I have the same problem but my phone is already on it's 3rd motherboard. I suspect the battery might be the problem but cannot get any answer as to what the voltages should be. I have already submitted a post headed Battery Voltage but it hasn't attracted a reply.
Hi there,
I got the same problem.
Can I send the phone to HTC even if I have rooted it? I also opened it a few weeks ago to replace the broken touchscreen. Do I still have warranty?
Greetings

Please Help!!
For not reading i did a process that was not compatible with my device.
I have an Inspire 4G and i was trying to put ENG-OFF following this steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=855403 to run "Desire HD s easy-off.exe" gave me "Bootloader is Corrupt. DO NOT REBOOT!" (He went out alone) and I could not take him with anything, i connect to the charger and nothing, the PC and nothing, as 20 minutes after i had pressed the power button turned on the phone with the white screen and vibrating continuously approx 8min, the problem is that in the beginning it takes too ... Now every time I reboot so, and if It discharge the battery will be useless because the phone doesn't take energy when connected to the charger or the pc .....
- I can not enter the bootloader, I managed to do with the "Super Tool V3" and the recovery reinstall the ROM, I thought it would end the problem but stayed the same, takes too long to start and does not grasp the power of the charger.
- I flashed via RUU with PD98IMG.zip from bootloader and nothing.
What can i do? What is it?
I saw that the bootloader says "ENG-OFF" and if i step back to ENG-ON?
I greatly appreciate (and have no idea how) that can help me please .....

Post. 1749 from "lebsir"
hey there!
Ok so I got this problem. My phone felt to the floor like 2 weeks ago and the screen got crashed, everything else works normally, touch is ok, screen is ok, just glass is broken, after 2 days I downloaded some dota apps and it suddenly started rebooting and crashing:
By this I mean, apps stopped working and lots of pop-up messages appeared, after some reboots It stopped turning on, so I decided to root it and installed a custom ROM the one from mike, Android Revolution, this was last week, this weekend it worked fine until sunday when it got bricked because of an outdated recovery from clockwork. I managed to solve this with some help from you guys, but now again.
I flashed the android monday again with same version, it was working well until yesterday at night, it started showing some whatsapp stopped working stuff again, i rebooted it and now a bunch of window errors... reboot it again and well... no luck it stayed in the Android loading window.
After this I was trying to install the stock version ROM from mike also, and that's when it got worse.
Flashed boot and recovery OK, then rebooted and when I tried to install the ROM it just won't let me, failed unknown error, failed remote : 00030000, and other messages, now when I try to flash the recovery again it says low battery, and when I try the script to charge it it won't work, FAILED remote: unknown reason.
What can I do guys? =S (Sorry for the long post, I just don't know what could it be, and I wish by giving that much information someone can find out the reason, contacted HTC and they said it has no guarantee since I rooted and the glass is broken)
can you still access fastboot??
if you can.. then flash the latest CWM 5.8.4.0
It will allow the phone to charge.

I can but there is some weird reason that won't let me do any flash, either low battery and when it gets charged a bit (because it may charge enough sometimes) it says FAILED remote:00030000 or unknown reason.
Don't know what it could be.
I ran into the exact same problem, the charger script does not help me too (low power on usb port of pc).
Thats how I fix this:
1) disconnect original charger, let's phone die. or use shutdown in fastboot.
2) connect original charger, and wait while phone powered up (He himself off as he does not have enough battery power.). disconnect charger.
3) vol.down and hold power,choose fastboot
4) connect charger
5) choose reboot bootloader (phone will reboot in fastboot)
6) choose reboot bootloader (phone will reboot in fastboot)
7) choose reboot bootloader (phone will reboot in fastboot)
....(do it fast)
249) choose reboot bootloader (phone will reboot in fastboot)
250) choose reboot bootloader (phone will reboot in fastboot)
251) disconnect charger, choose shutdown.
252) go to PC
253) vol down, power up
254) choose fastboot
255) flash the custom recovery with power supply support
256) flash custom kernel
257) don't disconnect USB!
258) fastboot / reboot bootloader / hboot
259) recovery
260) mount USB storage
261) drop zip of custom flash to the phone
262) unmount
263) advanced / restart recovery
264) flash the zip of rom
265) restart phone and dont disturb it, at 30 minute, let hi charge.
266) disconnect USB and connect original charger (1A)
267) Have fun!
It worked but bad news... now as always I am getting the message windows, with some weird apps.
First it was htc.com.bgp or something which I found it was the weather, then whatsapp, then Personalize, pretty much everything I open stops working after a while, what can I do? This was the exact reason that brought me here in the first place. It started showing these messages and I decided to install a custom ROM, it was first stock and locked and happened, now with this Android HD ROM it is still the same.
Thanks man... i was scared like hell when i realised that by script my battery voltage didnt raise up... even worse... it became less... i was reboting bootloader for 1h, but finally it worked... now im charging it to max... then ill flash stock rom
Thanks again.
