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?

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.
Hi,
i really need help. I have a HTC Desire and it is very unstable.
I tried several Roms but it stay unstable. Tried ROMS: "InsertCoin_GB_Sense2.1_CM7_1.1.3.zip", "AceSMod007_v13_3D-CM7.zip", "Cool3D-AceS-v4-bravo.zip".
Bevore flashing i always wiped completely.
Unstable means that the phone freezes from time to time and only removing the battery can recovery it from this state.
Freezing happens e.g: It Boots up normal, i can insert sim code, the start page is shown. When i do nothing and the screen saver (black screen) is activated i can not wake it up again.
It Freezes on incomming calls, mostly when in screen saver (black screen), sometimes also awakend.
It Freezes on incomming SMS.
And sometimes it freezes without any action, mostly in screen saver mode.

Is something defekt on my phone?
I really would like to get the phone stable. Is there a possibility to see what error happen bevore freezing? Should i try another image (i like images with sense so only sense images)? Perhaps original HTC one? Where can i get the latest original HTC image?
It would be very nice if someone can help me, i have no idea what i can do?
I am really frustrated.

Do you get fc or it just freezes on nearly everithing ?
Is ur SD card partitioned ?
Iv already tried all the roms u listed and didn't have this kind of problem

Are you overclocked? If you are, lower the value down a notch. Too high a value might sometimes cause system instability

Try a new SD card, or non-SENSE ROM
Hi,
thanks for your reply.
I have a partitioned SD Card. Fat32 + 1 GB ext4
I have not overclocked.
Freeze means that it hangs, it do not respond to any key press. The only way is to remove battery. When it freezes in screen safer, the on/off button did not work. It do not awaek. If it freeze with screen on, the picture on screen stays forever and no keypress helps.
I have now tried with alpharev stock hboot and a pre rooted original HTC Gingerbread from here:
[ROM] [20/08] Pre-rooted Stock Gingerbread (3.14.405.1) [Optional Mods]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200261&highlight=rooted
This seems to work rock solid, but without the shiny new things.
Any idea what might be the matter on all the other images for my htc desire?
I would like to use a custom, shiny rom, but than my desire begins to freeze.
Thanks
Kai
All the roms you mention has actually been overclocked by the developer, hence the freezes (i too have the exact problem, but that was due to me OCing to 1.2Ghz) which is why you have to install a CPU control app (cool's Roms have the daemon controller app you can use) and lower down the voltage a little to see if it helps (try 998mhz-1036mhz). Stock roms, being stock, will definitely not be overclocked, hence maybe that's why it runs well on your phone.

Ah ok, thanks for the explanation.
I used the InsertCoin with set CPU and lowered the OC, but had also sometime freezes.
Next time a flash a image i will give it a try.
For now i am satisfied with the pre rooted stock. I only have some trouble with apps memory. But it is very solid.
Thanks for your reply
Kai
I've got exactly the same problem and am pretty sure its my sd card (new one ordered) - I finally decided it was my sd card by removing it and used my phone for a couple of days and the phone didn't hang once and when I put the sd card back in the hangs came back! Got a 16 GB card for £15 delivered of Amazon.
Edit: Oct 12th - new sd card and screen/phone had froze again, don't know what the bloody problem is!
Ok,
so if i make a new try i will by a new sd and will set OC to 998.
But i think i will stay a while on this rootet gingerbread image.
Thanks
Kai
Try one of the stock non oc kernels... Sibere has made one, so have I.. See supernova site or thread..

Hi,
thanks to you all for your help.
As soon as i have time i will try it with a image with non OC kernel.
I would like to try the Cool3D-AceS-v4-bravo.zip. Can i use the non OC kernel you mentioned also for this or is it supernova image specific?
Regards

I believe as long as the kernel is a Sense based kernel, you can use it. However, with Cool3D AceS v4, I only heard people using tristian, snq or an old gingercakes (the latest is unstable with the Rom) kernel. But you can try.

Our kernels are based on the same sources. Being least modified, the seem also most stable

I had the smae problems like you with InsertCoin and now with Aurora v4.1. Is there a way to avoid the overclocking?

Use daemon controller or the likes of it and set the maximum CPU freq to 998 Mhz to stop overclocking.

What about undervolting. Does that mean setting a certain minimum too? Which value?
hey man if you could get rid of sense than get yourself a aosp rom i had the same thing as you i guess i tested leedroid and it was slow and unstable at overclock now im using a redux 2 rom overclock to 1113 very fast and nice.By the way you could try to download a better kernel for these roms that may help too

why dont you try MIUI ROM. they are very stable, fast and have more customization. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957291
I like sense. I just don't want to push my phone by overclocking/undervolting.
I've got an identical problem, though i've ruled out the SD card, battery, and rom. It's doing my head in now.
Mine just sometimes refuses to wake up after being locked, it's never switched off or failed whilst using it, only when left alone.
I'm running Cyanogen nightlies. So it's Aosp and no overclocking at all. Recently tried the latest crop of Sense roms all the same symptoms. Might only happen twice a day but that's too much.
Would I gleam much from the logging programs? I assumed if it crashed it wouldn't of logged the problem, if you see what I mean..
Hi.
Long time reader, first time poster. Or a "noob"
I have flashed the release of Evervolvs excellent P1 JB a few days ago. Everything worked fine up until today when the OS froze. I rebooted and it froze again. I rebooted and now I do not have any data connectivity. I have the H but the bars are constantly grey instead of blue as per usual.
When I installed it I made a back-up. I have flashed that and the problem still occurs.
I have done a full wipe and reflashed and still the same problem.
Could the radio firmware have become corrupt?
I have to confess I am not experienced in flashing a new radio and I am somewhat apprehensive of doing it.
I have rooted, S-Off and have a 1GB EXT4 partition.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Dude...what do you expect? It's a pre-alpha.
You just flash a radio from recovery. Not such a big deal.
Also, last time I checked there was a dedicated q&a thread for that. Did we really need another praise here?

@ Lars: I know what you mean. It is a nice mod but nog really trustworthy for everyday use. Losing the connection and fc, sometimes takingout the battery and reboot is the only solution.

It happens, however I've never had any major issues with P1 so far. It's pre-alpha, but I believe fully suitable for a daily use. You can always reflash it or do a factory reset if you bump into any problems. I would have expected people to be prepared for occasinal problems while using custom ROMs If reflashing and wiping everything didn't help, I would try a different ROM. If that does not help, you are probably experiencing HW problems.
Thanks for all the replies.
It turns out it was a network failure, but it all coincided with my phone rebooting
Before I look a total chump, I would like to add that I was using Evervolvs ICS and lost data connectivity after long periods of inactivity ie overnight. I had to turn data connectivity on and off to get it to connect. I thought this problem was one and the same with JB. So there was logic to my madness.
I have narrowed the rebooting issue to the Facebook widget, so I have removed it and all is stable :highfive:
Would anybody recommend flashing a more up to date radio or should I stick with "If it is not broke, dont fix it" mantra? Which I am inclined to do.
Thanks again for the replies.

Hi there. Currently im using HTC one x and its been 3 months im using it. The day that i bought the phone was using ics and then i'd updated it to jelly bean. since then, my phone start rebooting for no reason. Then i try to root and using custom rom so i hope that my phone will be stable but the result was disappointing. It still rebooting. then last week i change back to stock rom and hope it will be the same as the first day i bought that is without rebooting. but still the result was same and it kept rebooting. Can someone please help me and guide me because this is my first android phone and currently i dont know what to do anymore. I still want to keep this phone. Thank you
After all that you tried its probably a hardware related, but theres still hope tho.
How long does it take for it to reboot, is it consistent or random?
Also what ROM, kernel Hboot version etc. could be useful.
My Hox has a similar problem.
It keeps rebooting for no apparent reason. It does so 10-15 times in a row, and the stops for an hour or two and then repeats.
It is 8 month old and it only reasonly started doing that.
I run ViperX 3.3.8
Hboot: 1.39.0000
Don't know if these are the ones needed:
Kernel:
3.1.10

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.

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?
