Is this a battery problem? Phone Restarting - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have just started having problems with my HD Desire which is running Mikes Revolution HD 7.0.4 ROM. It seems that everytime I get out of range of my wireless connection, the phone will shutdown in a very short time and then is impossible to restart. It will get to the splash screen and then shutdown again. I can however restart the phone in recovery and the battery will show that it has a good charge. The phone will also shutdown at various times even when my wireless network is available, but not as quickly or as frequently. I know that it isn't the ROM as I tried a different ROM (after a complete wipe) and the problem persisted. I was wondering if these problems might be down to the battery finally giving up and not being able to provuide enough current to keep the phone on and that searching for a network is putting too much strain on the battery. I don't know if this is a common problem, but any advice will be very welcome. I am using the recommended radio for the ROM and the phone has been working properly and well for nearly a year since it was hacked. Phone does work fine when it is plugged in.
Many thanks
Ian

Did you do a Super Wipe ..?
you can find it here http://goo.gl/hWSCt
What is your radio version is it 12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M radio ..?
you can download it from here http://goo.gl/vdP8g
I think it is flashing issue.. and I recommend Android Revolution HD 6.3.3 for you because it is very stable ROM :good:

Before flashing a radio, exhaust all other options (that is if you don't have any experience flashing them). It isn't something to take lightly.

I don't think it is a ROM problem as I did use Superwipe and I had the exact same problem with two entirely different ROMs. Android Revolution 7.0.4 and IceColdSandwich 8.1.1. I have been running 7.0.4 since it was first released by Mike. Also the phone acts normally when plugged in (sorry forgot to mention that in first post).
My Radio is: 12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M

Go back to your stock ROM and see if the issues persist. If it still does, then it might be a hardware issue...if not, find a custom ROM that does not do it..

Dont use the superwipe script. Do a manual wipe. Wipe everything.
Take out the sd card, use a different one or backup your sd card, wipe it, DO NOT PUT THE FILES BACK IN, just a new rom to try to see if problem persists.
If it does, possibly it's a hardware issue.
Try all the different combinations, could be either a bad file in the sd card or a bad sd card and so on or what was mentioned before.

[Q] HELP: my HTC Desire reboot/freeze/hangs when I use a cooked ROM

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!
best

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

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,
best
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
SCésar
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.

Anyone else got no Bluetooth? (absolutly don't work)

Hello,
at first sorry for my bad english, I hope u could understand
This is my Desire:
MIUI 1.7.1 - Android 2.3.4
Eng S-Off
Hboot 0.85.2007
Radio 26.08.03.07_M
Baseband 12.35d.60.140fp
Kernel 2.6.35.13-LorDmodUE-V5.0
My problem is, that BT doesn't work for me! I turned it on...after a few seconds the switch returns back into off position.
I tried everything, full wipe, wipe script, etc...
I rooted my DHD out of the box, so I don't know if it worked in the beginning! I never used BT before, but now I got a BT Car Radio...and now I need it of course! I thought the problem is the Radio maybe, so I tried to flash the Revolution Rom with the corresponding Radio...but it still don't work!
Any suggestion for that problem?
No ideas??
Update everything in your DHD. MIUI 1.7.15 already out there, use recommended radio 12.54.60.25_26.9.4.11_M2 and also fresh LordModv6.1cfs/bfs kernel.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
EDIT: latest MIUI 1.7.22 and the radio above is my preferred radio
flashed your preffered radio and lordmod 6.1 cfs...but it still dont work
Wiped everything, also formated the hole sd card
Logcat says :
Bt_enable_impl : timeout vor hci device to come up
Whoa, there's no need to wipe out the whole sd card! Hmmm, I'm feeling guilty right now. Okay, usually changing the mix of kernel does the trick though. Have you tried to revert to stock rom?

I have the same problem when my battery is over 80%. If I restart my phone after the battery drops below 80% then my bluetooth turns on. I am running Cyanogen 7 nightly with LordModUE 6.3 and radio .09.04.11.

No problem mate...I thought that could not actually be the problem...but that was my last hope so I wanted to exclude all possibilities! I have backuped everything before formatting, so do not worry...
I tried the Revolution Rom with corresponding kernel/radio...also without success...i will now try the stock rom...
did you try using another radio?
it could also be hardware related

[Q] InsertCoin 1.1.1 A2SD+ Stock HBOOT crash - hangs

Dear fellow Desire owners,
i really like my InsertCoin rom but it's getting on my nerves lately. It crashes or hangs frquently. I see the lockscreen but nothing happens except when I pull the battery.
This has been happening more and more. Sometimes I notice my phone has been hanging for an our or so. I then have to remove the battery to get it working again.
I first thought it was the radio so I flashed it with version: 5.17.05.23 but things are getting worse. This morning I had to use the navigation but it kept hanging. At last I reverted to a NANDROID backup I made a week ago.
My question now is: how can I find out what is buggering my phone? Is there a log or an app that can do some troubleshooting? Is it an app that makes my Desire so miserable? How can I know this? Please help me.
Thanks!
Go back to stock rom to find out if it's the rom. If problem persits, call HTC.

Before you reflash again your Desire, you can check and format your sdcard.
Or change a new sdcard and faster speed.
If the same issue, it might be hardware issue on Desire.
Because I used IC ROM from 1.1.0 to 1.1.4, every version is so far so good.
So what you're saying basically is that there's no way of checking logs or troubleshooting or whatever?
So I did a full whipe and installed v1.1.3. Which went well for a week or so, but then it started crashing again on a daily basis.
I went ahead and bought myself a class 10 8GB sdcard. I just copied everything and did a nandroid restore. See if that works... And if that doesn't do the trick i'll try a full wipe and fresh install again.
Same problem
Hi,
I have exactly the same issue, could you give me the result of your experience with your new sd card ?
It's an old post but I would like to have an answer to my problem.
Thanks
All versions of insertcoin Rom were perfect... What class card do u use???
I use class 4... Works perfectly.....

[Q] IceColdSandwich 4.0.3 - 1.4.0 on Desire HD, phone keeps shutting down

Hi,
So yesterday i was walking the dog listening to some music when my phone just died. I booted it back up again, listened some more and it died again. When this happened i was running version 1.2.0 of said mod, so i decided to try the latest.
Seems like i have this issue there aswell Everytime my phone goes into lock it shuts down. Anyone have an idea what can cause this? my phone is almost a year and a half.
Update: Removed my memorycard and no problems so far, will try to format it and let you know.
Update 2: Formatted SD-card, seems to be working again now.
Update 3: Nope, its back again. Any ideas?
Thanks to everyone for any help on this

Try installing the test version of 1.4 and do a full wipe before that.
You should also try and flash any other ROM (maybe even stock) to make sure it's a ROM issue and not some HW fault on your phone.
Do we have any chance to have a 2wcr kernel for this great ROM?
I have the same 1-2 times per day after calling with
Virtuous Quattro RC3
so maybe a bug in ICS ?
Have been running without any force shutdowns for over 24hours now, so it might have been temporary for me atleast.
I got no problems so far with ICS on DHD, flashing from 1.2.0 to 1.4.0 without full wipe. I think different phones get different issus with same ROM. Maybe the installed apps are a reason for that.
I had that bug, but I was running Gingerbread at the time. The problem worked itself out, around the same time I upgraded the SD card. That might be a cause, maybe re-seat the sd card? Might be loose or something along those lines.
I'm running 1.5.0 and mine keeps saying no network and keeps rebooting itself????

[Q] HELP! DHD Keeps rebooting.

Hi, So i bought this Desire HD second hand about two weeks ago and it was already with Android Revolution version 6.1.0 by mike1986. As soon as i got it the flashlight app sometimes shuts off the phone when i open it, now two days ago i was on the internet(mobile network not wifi) and the phone rebooted and from then on it kept rebooting until i removed the simcard then it powered on ok without sim. Now whenever i plug in the sim it keeps rebooting the only way to power it on with the sim inserted is to connect the charger and power it on while charging then its ok. Please help me if you can as i desperately need the phone.
Now its also shutting off when im playing a game, sometimes when using the camera, even when i was using qrcode scanner.
My phone was also rebooting randomly. I send my device back to HTC and they changed motherboard and a lot of another things
It was in warranty, so i had it for free
How about if you superwipe, then reinstall the ROM?
You can get 6.3.2 (& superwipe) for the ARHD ROM here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840040. This is the stock HTC ROM, tuned by mike1986.
There is also the version 7.0.4, which is in fact a Gingerbread port from the Sensation. Given your problems, probably best to start with 6.3.2
If that doesn't help, it's not a software thing, so it must be hardware. The phone should be under warranty, so you could return it to the ex-factory state by flashing the standard ROM for your territory, and then take it to the service centre. There are several threads on this here.
Also SD card is known to cause this issue, try booting without SD card.
Yep, super wipe or full wipe is the best idea. Try the full wipe first and then root the phone again. Check the ROM section for the latest ROM updates, sometimes these things go wrong and it simply requires a full wipe and flashing the ROM again.
Hi Thanks for trying to help guys
So far i did clean wipe with superwipe, flashed radio,flashed Revolution rom 6.3.3,flashed the kernel and the problem is still there.
The only thing that is going over in my mind is why does it hold on for a little bit while its connected to charger if the phone is idle, but then sometimes when i open flashlight or camera or play a game its reboots again.
Try flashing an appropriate RUU, if the problem persists then you know it's hardware and it is still under warranty so return it to HTC for a fix.
