So i flashed my Desire with 'Reflex S v2.1.7 GingerBread 2.3.3 - Sense 2.1'
Everything works good, it's really fast, but i encountered 2 problems: (actually more, but i dealt with them..)
1. Email app (com.htc.android.mail) does not work. It Force Closes whenever i try to open it, or Sync All.
2. Contacts app (i think its HTC People in English; com.android.htccontacts) does Force Close when i do anything but watch them, or call. When i try to send message through this app it does FC, when i try to edit something, it also FC, same with creating.
Full wipe and re-flash doesn't solve it. (I restore apps and data through Titanium Backup, but it doesn't work even before i do.)
I'm new to forum, i hope i gave all info you need, in proper section, with proper title. I also hope my English isn't bad and you understood my problem.
Try posting in reflex s thread someone may know in there .... I use reflex and I don't have those problems mine has always worked well...
What else can you tell us?
I cannot post there yet i think.
I didn't S-OFF yet.
No idea what more useful info i could give you

You are right, you cannot post there yet.
Already searched the reflex s thread for your problem?
yeah, but no one else had similar problems, some ppl had problems with other apps, but reflashing usually helped. Doesn't work for me :|
did you check md5sum before you flashed?
What sd card partition set up do you have? What recovery do you use?
I didn't check md5.
16gb class 4 card.
1.5gb ext3 partition.
recovery is ClockworkMod i think
I know you have tried already but re-download the STOCK reflex rom....
Check md5sums
Full wipes as usual...
Neo said in the thread that Amon_ra is better recovery to use but I have never had problems with CWM
I'm a bit stumped, I did have to try 3 times on 2.1.6... no reason it just never flashed right.... 3rd time it was perfect
I'm gonna try tomorrow, cause i'm totally busy today
OK. Wipe and reflash didn't solve these problems. For some reason few hours after wipe, Mail app stopped crashing, and now works! But still problem with editing and showing contacts.. still gives me FC :|
It's strange but I've read something similar in other forums with the Reflex rom, as you can see in my signature is what I have. They have always solved these problems with full wipe, wipe cache, wipe Dalvik cache and flash again.
I really works great but it´s true that sometimes trying to change the Lock-screen I have to spend several times the files to finish doing what I want.
Messages Contacts
Messages app doesnt show contacts or their images.. just shoes the number...

Wrong section.
But I honestly have no clue what is wrong. Especially if it isn't ROM specific.
Try flashing stock, and you are wiping dalvik cache too right?
could it have to do with titanium backup?

Try only backing up your apps and then flash a ROM. Restore the apps only. I got weirdness happening too when I tried to back up system data.
Hi guys, I was wondering if you ever got this issue resolved? Ive been having the same problem getting FCs everytime i try to add a new contact or edit existing ones. I am currently running Fresh 0.5.3 but already had the FC issue a while ago when running DC3.2. I was on bugless .4 before that but i dont remember trying to add a contact at that time so im not sure if i had the error then as well. I have tried wiping with both clockwork recovery as well as amon-ra as well as flashing roms with both but to no avail. I am at a loss as to what to try. Any new ideas? Thanks!
I'm having this issue as well with force close on my people app and all I have is LauncherPro. No rooting done on my phone.
Sorry to start a new thread. I have read the rules about posting and have searched for the last couple of days for an answer but can't find one.
I am unable to install ANY apps whatsoever and it is driving me crazy. I have an HTC Desire (obviously) and am using Pays ROM Froyo Sense v2.2 A2SD+ (updated just the other day). (And yes, I wiped everything like you are supposed to do, before and after the update.) I don't think the problem is with the ROM itself because the problems started before the update.
I am able to download apps from the market but it seems to get hung up on the installation itself. It never stops installing and I am not even getting a failed installation message.
I have gone to Settings>Applications>Manage applications and cleared the data and cache for all of the normal suggested apps and have even force closed a few. Nothing is working, even when I try to install .apk files which are located in the download folder of my SD card.
One strange thing I have noticed is that when I go to Settings>Applications>Manage applications, the amount of space being used never displays anything other than 'computing....' I know sometimes it can take a while for the size to be displayed but surely not an hour!
I have even restored the default/factory settings to see if that helped but nothing!!! grrrrr.....
I am reaching the end of my rope and would appreciate any advice offered. I am keeping my fingers crossed that this isn't a newbie mistake and thanks in advance for any help!
have you tried another rom see if the problem persists? it usuall only takes a minute for manage applications to find all my apps and i have looooooads also no problem with market, do a nandroid, and try another rom, if its still the same you can always restore your nandroid, i suggest maybe leedroid
Thanks so much for your reply! Was really hoping to avoid trying another ROM but I am going to give LeeDroid a try and hopefully that will sort out my app problem. Just finished downloading it, will flash and post back soon. Thanks again!

like i said do a nandroid, if leedroid dosent work then, you can just restore your backup and your rom will be exactly the same as it was b4 you flash leedroid
FIXED!!! Thank you so much!! Am happily running LeeDroid.
Just FYI: Usually, I have such a problem installing but I leave it (it shows nothing downloading). Upon restarting the phone (whenever), the apps automatically install.

- HTC Desire via XDA App -
Hi everyone!
first, happy new year!
I have a problem with my desire...it freezes in a way that the pulling the battery out is the only thing that helps...it doesn't respond to any button, the screen os off and I can't wake it up
it's rooted with unrevoked, clockwork recovery
tried different roms, the best for me is baadnwz dhd port...
been on that for a while and didn't have the freezing problem, then I flashed the miui..
went back to baadnwz and it started to freeze...a few times a day
then I reflashed it, uninstalled the font changer and that helped...for two days(thought that was the problem) but tonight(~36h from the clean install of the rom) it froze again...
so, I don't think it's the rom, obviously it is not the font changer...
why is this happening, has anyone encounter this before, is there a solution?
please advise, what should I do?
thank you
For what it's worth...
If you can get it back to stock ROM, then do so. Then take it back to the place you bought it and demand a brand new replacement. I would even go so far as to note/print a few pages of some the forums as evidence of the widespread problem.
If my (and many other people's experiences) on here are anything to go by, then your problem will only get worse...and let's face it, whoever has heard of a electronic non-software related problem getting better on it's own? Having read just about every available post on the subject I've concluded that no amount of flashing/reflashing/fiddling is going to fix it.
Sorry to be negative about it, but them is just the facts as I see them.
hmm...so it's like that huh?
what do you mean "if" I can go to the stock rom?
can't I flash the original rom, or ruu or something?(I don't know, never tried something like that)
but then again, I'm not sure that it isn't a software problem...I'm just lurking around to see if anyone has encountered this before and solved it....
if all else fails, I'll flash a clean rom without restorin my apps and see how it goes from there...
just my experience

In all honesty, you may be able to reflash back to stock ROM. It may well depend on what firmware you have on your phone and whether your phone is branded (mine is T-Mobile UK). I know when I originally got mine and rooted it, it was hboot 0.83. It went wrong (external speaker stopped working). I was able to flash it back to stock ROM and I sent it back to HTC. When I finally got it back after 8 weeks (long story involving HTC incompetence and bad luck/incompetence with UPS), it was on hboot 0.93.0001. I rooted it with Unrevoked and installed LeeDroid 2.2f ROM. Shortly afterwards, it started to freeze/reboot. However, everything I've read so far leads me to believe LeeDroid wasn't the cause of the freeze/reboot fault. The problem is far too widespread (just Google 'HTC Desire reboot freeze problem') for it to be caused by a particular custom ROM.
Anyway, the upshot for me is that no matter what I've tried, I haven't been able to get it back to stock ROM and therefore, can't send it back for repair/replacement.
I sincerely hope you have better luck than me.
well, I'll see how it goes..
thank you for your answers
is there a way that I can make a log or something to see whether an application is doing this or something else?
well, I think I solved my problem, and for further reference here's a post that I did in another thread where this was disccused..
trikpa said:
just to let you guys know, I don't have any more freezes
some say it's because of the sense rom, some it's the dhd rom, others told me it's the radio or the ril files....
tried all of that plus few more things and nothing...
well, it turned out to be my backup(or an app in it..)
I always backed my apps and data with my backup pro, very nice app that restores everything....but the last rom flash I did, I didn't restored my apps&data and started fresh installs...and no freezing
I don't know what exactly caused problems, but one more thing that may be responsible...I flashed "font changer" and changed system fonts on my phone...and then backed my apps...maybe that's he deal...dunno...
anyways, I'm back with a killer phone with the best rom out there - baadnewz's

Do you still have any issues with the phone freezing sometimes when charging from A/C?
Mine doesn't freeze as much as it used to since updating the RIL files but being left charging seems to upset it

OK, that sounds good. I only usually recover a few items using Titanium backup but next time that I flash a ROM update. I'll start it all from scratch and hope to get the same result as you.
I don't know, maybe it was a specific app but I don't have the time nor the will to test each one of them
I've got the same problem. Now that I read your post it makes sense.
Restored my apps trough titanium backup and 5 hours later my phones freezes.

Well so far I have reflash the phone after a factory reset + wipe with no app restored via backup. It is performing ok so far. Last freeze was 2 days ago. I will wear down the battery to get a chance to charge it up this afternoon. I will see if it freezes again.
I'm suddenly having storage issues with every ROM that I flash after running a ROM with some script that isn't widely used.
First I'll give you a brief idea of my problem. I"m running out of storage and get notifications from the market saying as much after I download and reasonable amount of apps. The thing is... It show's I have used 738MB of ext4 out of 1.5 so that isn't the issue. The problem is internal memory. My phone won't move dalvik cache for some reason. When I run any ROM with a2sd or m2sd they both say that there is a problem and leave the dalvik cache where it is.
I think my internal folders are jacked up from 40ad2sdx or a zip that was used to clear memory before the ROM. There was a ext4 superwipe cleaner to load before the ROM. I did that without researching first. When I did go looking for the thread about it, it plainly said that it was for one phone only, and it wasn't my phone. I believe it was the Galaxy S3, but I can't be certain. It was a week ago. It was advised not to use it on any other phone because part of what it did was reset the internal folders. Does this mean I can now flash a ROM for the galaxy s3? Lol Just kidding.... Seriously, the second part is all my speculation and I have been wrong many times concerning android. Will somebody help me get my phone back in oem condition please?
Okay, I'm not even sure what you did here, because not knowing the script, anything could have happened.
Try wiping everything and flashing stock rooted here, then go from there with other roms after that.
If that doesn't work. Here's what I would do. It might be a major pain, but it is almost a surefire fix.
Unroot and return to stock, then root again.
[UNROOT]
[ROOT]
For future reference, NEVER flash anything that is meant for another device. (Obviously, if it's a port then you're ok.)
ALSO EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: Backup your SD card, and wipe that puppy clean!! Only partition using Amon-RA recovery, otherwise it will screw you up quite often. I repeat, if you do not have the partition done correctly, then odds are that A2SD or equivalent won't work.

I did the wipe and flash to stock earlier today, then flashed the Pac man ROM but the issue is still there. I had looked at unrooting my phone earlier today also. I'm glad to read this because it lets me know that I do have some idea of what to do. Thanks for the reply. I'll post here again with the results. Check back soon.
EDIT----> Man, my phone is okay. I loaded up a fairly recent ROM by Tronit, and it worked fine. It was the ROMs. Just to be sure, I went back to the last two ROMs just to see, and they did the same thing again. Now I'm on the AOKP Unnoffical and it's working just fine. The a2sd is working perfectly like it should, and my dalvik cache is moving to ext4. It was just coincidental that the last three ROM's I loaded all have issue with the a2sd. It's funny how nobody else see's problems but me. I looked in the bin file of one of them and it's missing part of the a2sd file. The other two have weird init.d files that I don't know anything about. I'm assuming the a2sd problem is related to that. It's funny how I see lots of problems, and report them, but I get blown off by some people as a noob who is making mistakes. I am a noob, and I do make mistakes, but I know some of my theories about problems are correct...... I gotta get me some respect by compiling my own ROMs.
Status update..... My phone is jacked up for sure. It does work with the AOKP Unofficial by Tronit, but this morning when I cleared my cache with Smelkus Recovery, it had major problems with almost every app. Clearing the cache in recovery is something I've done with every ROM and this has never happened. I uninstalled all the apps and reinstalled them. Got them working again. Everything seemed to be okay. However, when I cleared my cache with Android Tuner, again it ruined every app. I've used android tuner every day for two months to clear the cache and never had problems like this. Something is very wrong.

Long story short, I flashed something made for another phone. I can't explain why I did this without taking up lots of pages, and it doesn't even matter really. Lets just focus on the solution. Here is the link. I flashed both of the zips in the link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1477955
So I think my permissions for the files on my phone are out of whack. Is that what I"m reading is the possible outcome of flashing these if your phone is not the one listed? Please post your thoughts. I need them.

I did that. Both with Smelkus, and Mini partition wizard. Same problems. I just tried to fix permissions with smelkus 4.3 on the AOKP Unofficial ROM and it took a minute for it to do it's thing. The line of dots was two full rows. So when It loaded back up, I suddenly see the same disk Icon in my notification bar, and now this ROM says it it out of memory. Man, it was working fine. I had twenty more apps on it too and I uninstalled them. It was working fine then, so with twenty less apps, it shouldn't suddenly say "Running out of Storage space."
I have told you this already: Please do not flash things meant for other phones, it could mess up. If it's meant for another device, it might screw yours up. To stay on the safe side: If it's not generic (works for every Android phone) or phone specific (exclusive to the Evo 4G) then don't flash it.

I flashed this about a eek ago, when I was looking for the ext4 wipe. I thought it was the same thing as another zip despite what it said. Stupid... I know. I think this may be the cause of my problems, but I can't be sure. I don't know at all really. Just speculations. I reflashed the CWM touch and used to flash a stock ROM. Gonna try that again. I ran the test on CWM touch and it said that the
/sys/class/android_usb/android0 was missing and unable to perform the test. Can this be the cause of my problems?
Don't beat yourself up man, it was an honest mistake, just learn from it and you'll be alright.
Now the optimal recovery for this device would be the Amon-RA recovery, and I recommend redoing what I said in my first post once you have Amon-RA installed. Amon-RA is an awesome recovery, and it's super easy to install. Check out this easy-to-follow video on how to install by clicking here.
Do that, then do what I said in the previous posts. Let me know what happens, because I'm almost certain this should work.

I tried loading the Pacman ROM again with CWM and it wouldn't even load. It gets stuck in a bootloop. After that I flashed smelkus and went back to the Stock Rom.

I was finally able to get my phone straightened out. I loaded up a stock ROM then decided to use my SD Maid to look around. I found a file with completely different dates on it, but it wouldn't let me remove it. I ended up copying everything else in the subfolder and then deleted the parent folder. Then added everything else back. Wah lah.... magic. I don't know what that file was or where it came from but it was killing my internal memory. I'm wondering how it stayed from ROM to ROM. I dunno, but it's gone, and the Pacman ROM is lovely now. BOOM!!!!

Whatever I did only fixed part of the issue. I'm left with in a situation where every time I go into recovery my downloaded apps stop working. It is cutting part of them off whether I clear cache or not. All I have to do is power off into recovery, and when I reboot, all of my downloaded apps begin giving messages that "Unfortuately such ans such has stopped." My phone becomes inoperable. The only way I can keep it working is to send a new launcher to my phone from the market, let it install, then open it up and uninstall all the downloaded apps. I'm pretty sure this is an easy fix for someone like you Mancuso. I have a logcat and it show LOTS of errors that I have never seen before on any of my other logcats. What are my options? Tell me what to do to get my phone back to absolute OEM and then I'll reroot. UNLESS you know of some fix.
I've supplied a logcat from Catlog if you or anybody else wants to have a look. I'd really appreciate some help here. I love my Evo and I love learning this stuff. If somebody can help me positively identify the problem, I can most likely figure it out from there. Please give me your suggestions here. I'm nothing without some guidance on this. It's way out of my scope.
I've included a link to the ext4 script wipe that I used. How I got to this page, I do not know. However, I ran it because this page said it COULD POSSIBLY work on other phones despite the fact that it was made for another phone.

It wot dl apps the google play reverted back to the old market icon. wont save my passwords for google sighn in. every time i go to youtube it says to re dl the google play services. im sure other stuff is messed up too. i have tried to flash another rom but when it gets loaded back up it keeps saying process. whatever failed and there a bunch of those that loop and i have to pull battery. when i try to factory reset it says everything was formatted but when i reboot phone its the sme as it was before apps and all. So is there anyone out there who can help me with this. Sorry if i posted in the wrong place or what not. i wasnt sure where to post it cuz its kinda an advanced question but not really a question just need help.
not a virus but it does sound like your phone might have exhausted all the space in the /data folder. I had a similar thing happen to me before I rooted and fixed my phone where i exhausted the space, itt went a factory reset and put the phone into an unusable state.
i don;t know anything about the rom you are running but are rooted and have CWM installed? if so, you should be able flash a new ROM to your device, GAPPS and optionally, the low space disk fix.

Yes i do have cwm but i tried to flash a new rom via the recovery section. after i choose the zip to flash everything goes as expected untill after the reboot and it goes into the setup part where u have to put gmail password and stuff in then it basically freezes up with unlimited process failures. but i will try again. cant hurt from where it is now.
if you are not doing so already, i would wipe cache and dalvik cache after flashing the rom. that may fix the FCs.
I would also suggest you run a newer jelly bean ROM like Tiny;s 5-16 with his version of GAPPS(4-05) version plus the low space disk fix so you can maintain parity with what is the latest.
I am currently using evervolve 6-25 and it is working well for me.
the reason I say that is these newer JB roms have the ability to let you skip the activation easily. I don;t know if it was some feature of GB roms but the activation wizard in the JB roms seem to be better my opinion.
When switching to a different ROM, it is crucial to wipe /system. This can be a source of FCs. Also, if switching, it is also a good idea to do factory reset.

I just flashed another rom i used in the past by the same dev and so this is my step by step. 1. choose zip from sd. 2. factory reset. 3. wipe dalvik cache. 4. wipe cache partition. If this doesnt work i will try jb roms but i would hate to have to dump the dev that im useing. there the most stabe roms i have come across so far

what do u mean wipe /system. where do i find that. only reason i ask is cuz maybe ive never done that. but i have never had a problem withthe other 15 roms i have flashed before so thats why im so confused about what happened to my phone. all i did was shut it off and leave it home. nothing changed from my daily use before that and it was working top notch before i shut it off
im getting settings fc. youtube fc, my uploads fc, market fc, clock widget fc, internet fc, rss reader fc, htc sence fc, all those off of a fresh flash ad new sd card
Just lost my bckups that were saved on sd card so now i cant even get on it i dont get it. its not bricked but yet it i unstabe to run any rom but the preivious saved backup (now there deleted)
maybe the rom you downloaded is corrupt. worst case scenerio is that your phone is on it;s last legs.....
i would suggest you try downloading the JB rom and Gapps plus the low space fix.

it;s kind of proven to work in my opinion. the 5-16 build is pretty stable.
what I do is flash the rom zip, gapps zip and low space zip, then wipe cache and dalvik. it probably should not make a difference but I am using TWRP as my recovery instead of CWM.
goodluck!

Thank u and its still not working. probably just takeing a dump on me now it is just bootlooping.
when i do a factory reset i get a wipe completed. but it says "no app2sd partition found. Skipping format of /sd-ext" could that be part of the issue?? ive never noticed that before
i don;t know if switching to TWRP might help you but it might be worth a try. maybe a coincidence but the last time I had a screw up on my Dinc installing a ROM, i was using CWM. I switch right after that. I think i did read something about TWRP specifically supporting the EXT4 Low space fix.
maybe someone more knowledgable can chime in.

i will try it but it is doing the same thing on every rom i have tried to flash. ive tried 6 different roms so far and i have ran them all in the past so im incined to think its jacked. and is there a specific twrp for the different roms or can i just dl the latest version and it will work
