Display Freezing - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I using htc desire (telextra) in india bought from Australia. Initially used stock rom then change to custom rom and used airtel sim card. i used it up to nearly one and half year without any problem. Before three months i had ported my sim card to Vodafone. After that i am facing freezing issues at the freezing time it receiving incoming calls and rings well but display is full freezed. Also while clicking on the power button turn on the hardkeys and off when agian click on the ower button...
Have to restart it for getting agian properly. At that time received incoming will show as missed call..
I tried custom roms (paul modaco and leedroid) after that i switch to stock unroot, then also facing the same issue
it will be highly appreciable if anyone helps me to solve this issue!!!

What hboot did you use and is your device s-offed?
sent from my htc desire running aurora v03

hboot - 0.93.0001
micorp-031d
touch panel - synt0101
radio - 5.11.05.14
aug 10 1010 17.52.18

I have the same thing happening to me. I too have been using A2SD+ for about 9 months now.
Within the last few weeks..
I was running Insert Coin A2SD+ 1.1.4 with the stock hboot, occasionally the phone would freeze and the only way to restart the phone was to remove the battery.
After searching around it turns out it could be one of two problems. Either my microsd card is failing (16GB Class 4 Sandisk) or there are some rouge apps causing this freeze?
I recently flashed the CM7 r2 Hboot and is now running the CM7 version of Insert Coin 1.1.4, as I thought changing ROMs would eradicate this problem but last night it happened again. Pulled out the microsd this morning and gave it a good clean on its connectors. Seeing how long it's gonna last before it decides to do its not-so-funny freeze thing.
Used android flasher to upgrade the radio to 5.17.05.23 as well even though it doesn't say so below. It does on the 'About Phone' page.
Not sure if this is going to help but this is my phone.

Well, good news is since I posted there hasn't been any screen freezes or the suspected app causing the freeze. Thinking now it probably is the microsd card failing.

Happened just now, no apparent reason for it either. Phone has been pretty idle the whole day, just one phone call earlier today.

Return to stock. If problem persits, call HTC.

[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.

how dis his HBOOT have anything at all to do with rebooting
@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.

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

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] Crash(?)-loop

Good evening fellow androiders,
during my daily use my HTC Desire (GSM) using a MIUI Gingerbread ROM suddenly, after months without problems, started acting weird.
The battery was drained, and when I plugged it in at home it booted into MIUI just fine and after 5 - 50 seconds it goes black and reboots. It now always does that and is therefore unusable.
Tried wiping and flashing a new ROM, tried booting without sd, sim, etc. always the same problem.

Try switching to stock sense ROM and see if you notice a difference. Read up on logcat, make logs and report. None can advise with guesswork.

HTC Desire No signal no sound no usb connection

Hello!
As the title says, my phone has no sound, no signal and no usb connection. I flashed Cyanogenmod 7.1 to my Desire and then these problems occurred after a half year. Now I tried to install a RUU (RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed) which was also successfully but the problems still exists. I also have a gold card. In addition, I also can't use fastboot via USB I tried everything but i can't solve these problems. I hope someone can help me.

Hello community,
i report the same problem with my desire. Since more than two days, no sound, no signal, no gps, no sound (speaker & headphones), no usb - connection (in ROM & Recovery). I haven't testet WLAN for now, but i think this wouldn't work.
I had the same issue in last week for one and a half day and tried to flash different ROM's, Backups, USB-Unbricks (No brick detected), permission fixes etc. - this all doesn't helps and suddenly, for now reason - it works! But only for a few days.
What I have done since the problem persists:
- Tried different Backups (4.1.1 (JB), 4.0.4 (ICS), 2.1 (FroYo (Sense ROM))
- Permission fix
- USB-Unbrick (no brick detected)
- tried to connect via USB (for ADB) - no connection established
- wait for another "miracle cure" of my good old Desire (that not comes to me)
Before i got these miracle problem - i got a lot of "only" connection losses a day in about the last four to five month with different ICS & JB ROM's - but a normal Restart (sometimes it needes to pull battery out) has helped here. I thought this will be a Problem with Android 4.x but now i think this was the beginning of something bigger .
Here are my specs for my desire:
Device: HTC Desire A8181 PVT1 AMOLED S-OFF
Android: 4.1.1 (Jelly Bean)
ROM: Elk759 v0.27.2 (based on Nikez Evervolv 3.0.0p7)
Radio: 5.17.05.23
RIL: 2.2.0019G
Kernel: 2.6.38.8 [email protected] #1
Hboot: AlphaRev STOCK 6.93.1002
SD: Verbatim 16GB Class 10 with 1,0 GB Ext4
Recovery: 4Ext Recovery 1.0.0.5 RC 5
My idea is, that the Radio or RIL is broken or has a bug. But i can't flash a new (don't tried with RIL but i think this wouldn't work) Radio with 4Ext Recovery. And i got no ADB-Connection without USB... So - i'm sitting here, in my boring room...
Did anyone of you smart people has a solution for this crazy error or should i throw this thing in the bin? (Althrough perhaps i used it as a "Gameboy" with no sound...)
Thanks for your reply and help .
(Sorry for my english...)

Desire resets itself after crash

Hello guys,
1) I am using Nikez Jelly Bean: Evervolv Turba 3.1.0p1 for a few weeks now but every 3 or 4 days it suddenly gets EXTREMELY slow, for example it needs about 10 seconds to turn off the screen. But the phone is not really crashed, its just so slow like the CPU is working with 10 MHz... This seems to happen randomly.
When restart by removing and inserting the battery it has hardresetted itself. The apps are deleted but their appdata exists.. The homebutton and the trackball dont work anymore. My messages and my settings have also been deleted.
This also happens with the JellyNow Rom.
Is this a software or a hardware problem? What do you think?
2) My Titanium Backup doesnt backup any apps but their data, respectively i cant restore the apps themselves but their appdata... Do you know why?
Greetings
Elo
Try flashing a "stable" rom for a few days and see if the problem is still there.

I had similar issue before and when it usually happens within a day after I flashed it or recovered it. I am not very sure if the current ROM (running safe for 2 days now) is really safe from crashing again, but this is what I think happened.
the sd-ext partition at 4GB sometimes cuases issues, especially of somehow everytime I flashed it it reverted back to ext2 back when I was using CWM recovery (maybe cause my backup was made when it was still a ext2 partition). But I have since changed it to 2GB, used 4EXT recovery to convert my sd-ext to ext4, and I updated my ROM... Not sure which one did the trick, but so far it hasn't reset on my.

[Q] CM10.1 v6.3 App/Freeze Problems

Hey xda, I recently bought the HTC Desire second-hand at a phone store in London and loved it. My friend informed me about rooting and custom ROMs and I just had to do it. I rooted my phone without problem and then flashed CyanogenMod10.1 v6.3 (JellyBean 4.2.2) onto it and all was working fine but because of the internal memory problems on the desire, I partitioned my 2GB sd into 1gb ext4 and 1gb fat32 to give some room to install apps.
I then realised i hadnt run the a2sd scripts it says to run on the thread for CM10.1, so i reflashed the ROM and ran them. My phone was working fine for a while, but when i tried using my 3G connection to download something, the phone froze for a few minutes and then the CM boot screen came up again.
Now this is where it gets head-wrecking. When the boot screen finally finished, i was on my lock screen and tried to enter my password, the system was really laggy, and it took me about 4 minutes to enter my password and when i unlocked it froze again and went back to the CM boot.
Sometimes the boot gets stuck in a bootloop, and sometimes the system just boots normally and works fine. But when it does work, some apps (random each time the phone is booted) close on opening them ("Unfortunately, contacts has stopped working") and can freeze at any time randomly (mainly when i try to open google play store or turn on my 3G)
I'm not sure where I went wrong or why it's doing this..
It could be because its second-hand (although I doubt it because it was working 100% perfectly before i rooted and flashed it).
It could be I partitioned the sd wrong or didnt give any to the SWAP partition. (using 4-ext recovery to partition)
I don't really know..
Please if anyone has had the same problem (random freezing then rebooting with some apps not working sometimes) or knows what i can do, i would be so grateful. I love this phone and I'm in love with Jellybean too so if I can get it running smoothly with no issues, I will be so happy.
(in time between writing this and posting it, my phone seems to work with apps but can freeze at random still)

Well with jellybean there are disadvantages. No jb ROM will be as fast or stable as gingerbread. You can try doing a full wipe and reflashing the ROM. If you're still getting lots of freezing maybe try some other jb ROMs. (ChromiumROM in my sig is pretty smooth)
The problem could also be your sdcard so try some others if have.
Also you have an outdated radio. Try updating to the latest and see if that solves anything.
Sent using xda-developers app
After using it for the last week, I can confirm that the phone works perfectly 100% no crashes without my sim card in it. It will only freeze and reboot if the sim card is in it.. how do i fix this? Is this a problem with the radio?
