v5 is busted. Beyond having to reboot once before you're able to access it via RM, it's trashed a few systems (mine included), won't let some power off (they reboot instead), etc.
I'd suggest rolling back to the last stable version until the bugs get worked out.

Phone Issues - Please help

Hi there, I have a HTC Desire GSM, Currently running elk CM10, 4EXT Recovery, Stock HBoot, The problem is with every Sense rom that I have tried it freezes and locks up after a matter of minutes , Then it wont let me boot , This is the same for all sense Roms on XDA, Every AOSP rom works fine. I know it sounds strange but ive only had these freezing issues since I changed my Sim Card to GiffGaff. Any Help would be greatly appreciated as I love the Sense UI and would love to use it.
Never mind it was the sd card causing the issues.

Is there any way to boost the battery performance of htc desire, it just last only for 6 hrs, pls some one say any best way for it.

What rom are you using? Aosp roms have the best battery lives. Try the one I'm using. It lasts 2 days at normal use, and it's as smooth as an s3.

First of all, thank you for your patience.
I do the following:
1. wipe all but sd-card;
2. format all but sd-card;
3. fix permissions;
4. sometimes I format sd-card using the following settings;
a. ext4
b. sd-ext 1 Gb
c. swap 1 Gb
d. sdcard 12 Gb
5. file system check
6. choose zip
7. install
Here is the point where, after analyzing the package, the phone displays “Status 7” error and aborts installation.
No one?

[Q] DHD Goes strait to recovery, why?

This is probably a question for the devs, after flashing my own build of CM7.2, with the built recovery from the CM source tree (CWM). When ever i turn my phone on, while its charging, its goes strait into the recovery.
Any idea's why it does this?
Boot.IMG problem?

Try reflashing, if problem persists, you have a hardware problem with your charger.

Must be in the boot.img, built my entire system from source, so what ever causes it can be changed but i'm not sure if its in the init of the Linux kernel or in the kernel its self.
Got any idea's where i can look to find when the kernel decides which RAMDISK to load, recovery or system?
Why not just build a new boot.img and flash it?

Because if i don't change something, then it will just create the same boot image!
I need to know what part of the boot image tells the system to boot into recovery mode while the device is plugged in.
Sorry mate, can't help you with that, ask some kernel dev...

[Q] Really stumped...

I have rooted my one v and all is fine, but now I want to put a custom Rom on it and shpongle looked great so I followed the steps...
1. Did a nandroid backup
2. Extracted the boot.img
3. Went into cwm and wiped the phone and dalvik.
4. Installed Rom.zip
5.restarted and before it starts I went into bootloader
6.went into fastboot and flashed boot.img
7.and then restart and it gets stuck on the splash screen with the stupid warning from HTC and HTC dev.
If someone could write a really fool proof way to install this Rom and what is going wrong with what I'm doin I would love you forever coz I just want to free this little pocket rocket to 1.8ghz
Thanks

Problem with booting and bootlooping.

Hi all,
yesterdat I downloaded what is named Shendu OS and flashed it on my phone, and when the phone is turned on it get stuck on the first HOX logo,

I tried repacking the kernel and editing it, then flashing it.
I had succeeded in moving on to the second boot screen with getting logcat working.
But i faced a problem that power services are not found.
how could i solve this problem, need some help...

Can you get into fastboot ? If you can there is still hope and it isnt BRICKED ....... Fastboot usb ... fastboot flash recovery again , then flash a correct rom . if recovery still isnt working try fastboot reboot recovery ..... and you may have to RUU . but as long as you have fastboot you still have a fighting chance .
I've tried to just flash the recovery through boot loader. Does the same thing. I'll try fast boot reboot recovery. How do I RUU? Can I flash a rom in fast boot?

I would REALLY start reading about all the things NOT to do with an S-OFF phone if you think you bricked your phone on a bootloop.
I honestly don't want to see your beautiful phone actually get BRICKED. which means just that it's a brick.. it doesn't turn on, no charge light ANYTHING, that is a brick. And can happen, but if you are careful you will be fine. but Not knowing how to flash an RUU and what a bootloop is, those are things you should learn BEFORE you S-OFF. Just don't want to see you end up with an actual Brick.

Lol! Learned allot in the past week. Andy, everything you said is on point. I took the time to read and learn and you'll be happy to know I'm now running TWRP with bone stock. I now have a better understanding of it all. I have rooted and unlocked many phones. Eris my first. But this is my first S-off and thanks to all the help from xda members like yourselves I know what I have.
