I am running on the official htc 2.3 rom for the desire however recently when I
boot my device everything loads except for htc sense, which renders the device useless. I'm attaching what logcat gave me after running for 5 seconds. Any help is appreciated.
Maybe you could try flashing the 2.3 RUU again to see whether that will fix the problem.

I know at least two of us here have this problem. With me it happens nearly every other reboot, when I boot to recovery or when I boot the phone. It just sticks at white HTC screen forever and I have to pull the battery.
It is more of an anoyyance than anything however I suppose it could be dangerous if it happened during radio update. Anyone else have the problem or some insight into what causes it?
I know mine started doing it before I even flashed a permanent recovery so that's not the problem.
Thanks.

I had this problem, but only on vanilla FroYo roms. It annoyed me and stopped a friend from getting one (even after a lengthy conversation about it being me rooting and the rom) but on sense no such problems.
Now on CM6 and I don't get the problem. So I myself have narrowed it down to vanilla FroYo.

I'm on cm6 and get it all the time. Had it on defrost too.
I'm using LeeDroids v1.3a sense Rom and I've never had a hang. To be honest I've never had froyo run this smoothly on any other Rom before. I've rebooted about 10 times and its fast and swift, with no hangs.

Defrost was the worst due it with me. Every other boot (if I was lucky!) would end up in a boot loop.

i think its to do with your ext not mounting so then it hangs. I had this issue on OD 1.6 and AdamG's Sense but it got sorted when I used Defrost's a2sd script.
Is there some sort of log i can pull to see what is going wrong when it hangs?
Any ideas on how to diagnose what is going wrong on boot?
I don't know if I understand what is the real problem, i'm spanish.
I understand that some ROM's are not booting well doing a bootloop. With my Desire I haven't got this issue but on my cousin Desire this problem occured with a ROM that are working well for me with same conditions and tested also with same SD card.
I try this:
Apply the PB99IMG.zip based on 1.23 from Virgin Mobile and working correctly.
Wipe from recovery, and bootloop.
Apply again de PB99IMG.zip
Flash a rooted version of this ROM without wipe, device boot well and its rooted.
I try to flash the MDC r5 Froyo with Sense and same problem ocurre but can't boot with or without wipe.
Hi guys:
I am really desperate now... my phone only seems to work with the official ROM, everytime I rooted, and installaed a Cooked ROM (GB ROM) very soon (in a minutes of using it) it will hang or freeze or reboot.
I explain all backround:
1. firstable I have my desire working for awhile with many cooked ROM (Froyo), after months,the phone started to reboot everytime, so I have sent it to the SAT, and they changed the motherboard. and give it back to me.
- The new motherboard is
PVT4
HBOOT 0.93
MicroO 0,51d
2. I rooted it OK (using unrevoke methos)
3. Flashed a cooked ROM => then is when the problem starts, everything after falshing is OK, but after a few time of usage with the cooked ROM, then the phones starts to freezes randomly.
some further info:
- tried with Neophyte ROMs Reflez 2.0.9,2.1.0...2.1.6 => same issue
- tried with LeeDrOiD V2.5.0 FINAL | 28th May l Official => same issue
- tried with LeeDrOiD GB 3.0.6 => same issue
if I go back into the offical ROM (by unrroting method) using the "RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed" => Issue is NOT reproduced!
- In all cases, I did try to keep ONLY apps coming from the flasehd ROMs, to make sure any app is causing the issue.
- I have tried using another miniSDcard (8GB class 4) => same issue!
Is it anything wrong with the new motherboard?
Is there anyway to check logs or trace why is freezing?
Any clue?
Thanks for your advise!

(please don't advise me to keep using the official bored ROM)
No body give me a clue or help on this?

I have the same problem. I have noticed that most times my desire freezes when I download something over mobile network. So maybe the problem is in A2SD? I'm going to try with Cool Kingdom Rom, because I already have EXT4 Partition.

Thanks a lot Deivino for your comments.
Please keep me posted about what happens with your "Cool K. ROM"
hope your issue is gone then.
Mine still present, I can use ONLY the official ROM.

So I had no luck with Cool Rom. It still freezes, but much less now. Also these freezes are very random now, mostly when screen is off. I haven't flashed jet the newest radio and ril, but I don't think it would fix it either. I was thinking about unrooting, but when I did, I got less than 30% battery error with full battery. So I have no idea how to fix it or what is even causing this freezing.
Hi Deivino
Since I've unsuccesfully tried with many cooked ROMs, finally I have decided to take the phone to SAT, which fortunately still on guarantiee.
Let's see what do they find...
good luck with your phone,

I managed to unroot my desire and now running official android 2.2 what htc provides and the problem still occurs for me. I don't see no other way but to send it to warranty.
Hi Deivino
I did the same, actually many things unsuccesfully as you see in my first post.
Finally, I sent it to warranty, and they gave me back already a new device!
Now, it works OK.
So, unfortunately, the issue was not fixed at all, either I don't know what caused the issue.
regards

Try cyanogenmod.. it's THE singlemost stable ROM you can install on your phone. Never fails.
I agree.. never had an issue with CyanogenMod ROMs

Hi Guys,
thanks, finally I sent my desire to SAT, and they gave me back a complete new one!
So, with the old one I did all in my hands unsuccesfully as I explained in my first post, so I didn't try CyanogenMod ROMs therefore I will never know if it would works!
Anyway, thanks a lot guy for all your suggestions.

Sorry for not posting the solution, for the solution, I will post it now.
Problem:
My S-OFF and rooted Desire worked fine with different Sense 2.1+3.0 ROM's. Then I wanted to try out a fully Sense 3.0 ROM - this worked fine (despite that it killed my cam + flash), but I found it a bit slow on my Desire, so I wanted to restore a backed up ROM. After the restore, my Desire keeps booting into the ROM, stays at the home screen for 1-5 seconds, and then reboots. This cycle goes on untill the battery is empty. I also tried to install ROM's from scratch with full wipe, but the outcome is the same as above.
Solution:
I installed the official Stock RUU ROM and then it works again, I even rooted it and also run the Alpha Rev to make it S-OFF. All this without any problems...or that is almost without any problems, because my cam + flash are still not working..!
New problem
After this I of course tried to install new ROM's again, but this doesn't work any more, the the initial Issue with rebooting reappears.
Maybe instead of just writing solved, leave the problem there and add your solution for other users that might encounter the same problem.

Hi. I just flashed my old g2 with ARHD 7 and now the phone after I turn it on it boots into the HTC screen and then it goes directly into recovery. I had never had a problem like this when flashing a rom in this phone. I have searched all around but still cant find anything like this.
Off the top of my head, do you have the Desire Z hboot installed?
(Not sure if the problem description is a symptom of not having it, but it is required when running pretty much any Sense ROM)
This can happen if the ROM you flashed did not flash properly. Have you tried to wipe everything, redownload, and reflash the ROM?
I believe that biohazrd51 is correct, not having the desire z HBOOT can cause this problem as well.
Hey! Thanks for the replies! I did found out that I didn't had the desire z hboot....noobiadaaaa onmy side...hehe...I flashed it and I didn't even had to reflash the rom...it worked flawlesly. I was trying to use the phone with AT&T but it would not connect in other band than edge. I guess I'll check to see if the frequencies on the G2 are compatible with the AT&T network. It would make calls and receive. But the internet was slow as hell! Thanks again guys.
Hello,
I had been using the latest oxygen aosp rom for my gsm htc desire until yesterday.I decided to try the cm7 rom because the keyboard (not just one, I tried almost all of them) behaved very strangely in oxygen : it did not respond when I pressed a key, then it started to press keys on its own so I couldn't write a simple text message. I thought the problem was caused by some sort of a bug in the oxygen rom, however after i had switched to CM7, the problem appeared yet again. I have tried cleaning the cache, but it does not work. I am kind of desperate, can someone help me?
Thanks,
Michael.
Haha exact same thing happend to me with OxyZM, very strange coz iv used that rom before with no problems at all. I would press "T" and "M" would pop up, i was like wtf? Lol. I dont know why, tried a clean install of the rom but still the same, so i just changed roms back to the oldschool, android 2.3.3 and sense 2.1 haha.
I would like to know aswell, maybe just a dodgy download r something, or maybe we downloaded something that made it go crazy. Maybe some1 knows.

I guess the problem was with gingerbread 2.3.5. I installed leedroid's rom with android 2.3.3 and the problem is gone
