htc desire screen problem

hello. i have bought a desire few days ago. yesterday i notice a problem. i have search the internet but havent find anything similar.
when i press the power button to turn of the screen after i press it again to turn on my screen sometimes the screen turns green and i cant do anything.
this thing doesnt happens all the time. but is preaty annoying and i have to remove the battery.
does anybody have an idea what is the problem

I think it's a hardware failure. Best way is to contact HTC Support.

i am not sure if ita hardware problem. because i notice that moso of the time that this happens is when i lock my screen when an application is open.

I don't think you'll find that's an unusual thing to do! I do it all the time, and have never experienced the problem.
As has already been mentioned, chances are it is a problem with you particular device - especially since you haven't had it for long. However, it could be an app causing the problem, so I'd suggest a factory reset in the first place and see how it performs in a more "vanilla" state.
If it behaves itself, start adding your apps back in again, and hopefully you'll find one causing the problem.
Regards,
Dave

i have already did a factory reset a nothing change. i thing the problem is with the lock screen after i press the power button.. i install no lock now on my phone that disable the lock screen and seems to work ok now.
one thing i forgot to mention is that the problem apear after i did a factory reset.

if this was a hardware problem shouldn't be happening all the time?
i just send an email to htc and inform them with my problem.

Turn it round the other way - if it was a software problem, it would be happening to everyone using the same ROM as you.

yes i know that. but since i disable the lock screen. the problem dissapear.

Today I took my phone to the shop I bought it and after half an hour of trying to show to the guy there what's was the problem. He gave me a replacement.

Hello everybody, i'm fresh new.
Also on my htc desire I have this problem, if you are able to use the device, without see the screen content, you can also shut down the phone. I say shut down because the problem disappear if you stop the phone (or leave the battery) for some minute. it's like all the meroy needs to be lost.
I had this problems some months ago, I unistalled one-by-one the apps, and it worked, now I have installed (during the last 5 months) other apps, and from 3days ago it restarted with this problem.

Do the same procedure like before: uninstall apps until problem disappears.

I am doing but I'm not sure it's the best solution.
I think it is related to some apps, some software problem, but I removed almost all my apps.

I noticed also that if I press the lock/unlock button for some secs, the problem there isn't. But it happen again (most of the time) when I put the device on charge, without turn it off, then when it finished it's a little bit hot and the display doesn't work.
I think it's a problem of the lock button, not software.

what is the name of this app?

I think is a problem related to the memory of the phone. Because I don't have new apps on my Desire.
If I move all my apps on the SD Card, it never (almost) happen...but if some Widget, on the phone, starts in background..
when I push the bottom at the top...the display doesn't switch on.

screen problem
Hi just wondered if anyone else has had this problem bought a desire a few days ago seemed to work fine but it has begun to act a little strange from time to time. from time to time the touch screen will not work just locks up, also the screen goes crazy flipping from one screen to the next, came with android 2.2 but upgraded it to android 2.3 from the HTC official site using HTC sync thought this may stop it, it does not happen as often now but still does it have to turn the phone off then back on again for it to work, anyone got any ideas on this and how I may cure it Thanks for your time.

[Q] Screen automatically on every minute

Hi everyone,
I've been using Android Revolution HD 3.1 since it is out, and I manually formatted everything what was needed before installing the rom. Kernel is the one supplied with the rom and it is the recommended radio (12.35d.60.140fP_26.06.03.24_M2)
everything works fine, except that the screen turns on every minute by itself and turns of like 5 seconds later. I've checked and nothing is pressing the power button. the problem is, is that it is very regular.
anyone any idea how to solve this?

You ve current widget installed? If yes, try removing that and see if the problem goes away

thanks for your answer, I finally found the culprit, it wasn't currentwidget, it was the taptap app. as soon as I turned off the sensor, the screen wasn't turning on anymore. never guessed it would be taptap as when I connect it to power, nothing happens. only on battery.
thanks anyway

Battery problem?

<Hello world>
I have this issue, I have a Hercules black and when i turn on the phone it stuck in boot logo, it passes Samsung logo, then quickly to T-Mobile loading screen, it keeps there 2 to 5 sec, then to samsung and 2 seconds after just reboot and again and again, so I connect it to charger, it says almost full battery, ok, I turn in on, boots normally but in last boot screen (Samsung logo) it keeps there about 1 minute and finally enters to Android, I wiped the phone almos 3 times, changed rom to 4.0.4 and 4.1.2 again, its not rooted, its in stock, and the phone randomly shut down, I dont know why, because I made a Antuntu Benchmark to check if the problem maybe will be caused by CPU load but nothing, it turns off in Facebook , so I left it in standby about 30 minutes and when i get back the phone was soo hot, i pulled battery off and I dont see nothing strange in it, the phone was hot, not the battery, also i taked apart to see if a cable was bad connected but nothing, so I dont know what it haves.
Also, sorry for bad english.

Sounds like u may have a power button issue, if not that then I would suggest updating to 4.1.2 or rooting the device and not switching back and forth without rooting like that...

I checked it, but it doesnt turn on by himself when i put the battery and it doesnt keep vibrating except when it turns off by himself, i watched that when I am using it it just get too damn hot in camera area and it turns off, also when i make a call or answer it it just freeze it and i cant hang off and press any key, so i have to quit the battery, also i dont get sound, i dont know if its related, i dont get sound from speaker or earphones but from the front speaker i get sound for calling...

Someone can tell me what problem is it? I dont know what part i have to repair and I need to use the phone.

LG Optimus G Pro turns off automatically.

So one night, i slept without plugging the phone to charging, and music was on via handsfree.
When I woke up, it was showing the warning to use correct battery.
And since then, it keeps turning off automatically and randomly during use, and sometimes refuses to go ahead of boot screen.
This happened on stock KitKat 4.4.2
I have tried Hard Reset, as well as another Custom ROM, but none seems to fix the problem.
Even if battery is at 80%, this problem occurs.
I don't know what to do.
Please help.

Seems I solved it myself...
Turned out to be a problem with the battery.
So I jump-shocked it.
And voila, now it works like a charm.

HTC desire 816 anoying turning off PLEASE HELP!!

Hi i have this supper anoying problem after 5.0.2 update! So basicaly What it does is when ever i will pick up the phone it would turn off like the screen would dim (not rebbot or shut down) and after a little tapping on a screen it would turn on again and sometimes when it does that it would glitch a little. While typing this it happened twice its sooooo anoying idk what to do now if i wont find any solutions i will just buy samsung galaxy or something like that. Also my carrier is Virgin Mobile thanks

Same problem, same phone.
Definitely annoying! Seems random but especially while rotating for me. I have not been able to dig up any solutions thus far.

Check out your proximity sensor settings in the HTC testing app, or try Gravity screen. Mine did the same thing a couple times, also clean off your screen at the very top left, if you look real good you can see the sensor just under the front camera hole in the glass, also sometimes a screen saver will mess with this sensor. One more thing is the stock lock screen can cause an issue similar to what you are talking about, hope one of these help yo out, cane0716

hi
thanks for information i already gave that phone to my friend and i think he fixed it by actually having different lock screen i currently have samsung galaxy s5 its wayyyy better lol

Phone turns off during use and will not complete boot unless plugged to charger even when the battery is almost full.
This error started last night after I did factory reset because of observed phone lag. I did mistakenly "wiped internal storage" but got the alert of "no OS during reboot", so I restored from my backup from SD.
the phone started properly but went off during initial setup and will go back off each time I tried turning it back on. I thought it was battery so I plugged it to power.
it did boot but will go back off once I have few touches on the screen.
I had to leave it plugged to setup my accounts else it will go off.
I'm using its Wi-Fi to send this message via my PC because any 2 - 3 touches will switch the phone off.
once it does that, it won’t even boot to bootloader before it goes off again unless plugged to power.
what I do to solve this please??
