So yea...as much as I know my desire's motherboard needs replacement...And I dont have warranty. Is there any way to fix it without changeing whole motherboard?
You provide us no information at all about what's wrong with your device.
What do you want to do with it? Solder stuff?
There is a 100% chance that you will destroy your phone when you open it and mess around with the subminiaturized highly vulnerable microelectronics.
There's something called insurance.

Maybe the forum can help you
For this we need some more information:
1. Do you have the original HTC Sense ROM?
1a. If YES skip the points 2 - 5 and continue with 6.
2. If NO: which ROM you have installed?
3. Did you change the Radio ROM?
4. Have you unrooted your phone?
5. Are you S-Off / changed Hboot (partition table)
6. Do you use the original SD-Card?
7. Since your reboots started: have you installed any software just before?
8. Which program(s)
If you can answer these question we can help you - I don't think (hope) your motherboard is dead. Often there are simple solution to fix a "dead" phone

1. I had,but it used to turn off and get into boot loop while playing games like GRave defense. Never happened while playing shoot bubbules.
2. DevNull. First was dev,then leedroid,now back to dev. I keep him in sd card in case my phone wont turn on. Sometimes it restarts in middle of movie so I left him 2 times until morning and it first time turned on and second time didnt,again started to restart. Same with reflashing roms. Sometimes helps,sometimes no.
3.Yes.Radio_32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08
4.Yes. I had hboot 0.83 or 0.93 and I used AlpharevX and then unrevoked.
5.Yes.
6.I dont know, I got it when I bought phone. (it was used when I bought it.)
7.Hm......Well...I dont think so...when I bought it, I turned phone off and after um... about 1 h I tryed turn it on and it started restarting. Then after some time turened on again.
And btw now it sometimes starts restarting not even hot.
So your problem is random reboots? or does your device not start up at all?
If the problem is just a bootloop, you won't need to replace the motherboard. You just need to flash the correct and working software.

But that used to happened with original rom too...un...one guy said that bootloop is because motherboard is faulty. Now I just watched whole movie. And it was ok. But I tink if I would use market or opera it would restart. But im not sure. Sometimes it dosnt restart. And if I would flash all correct software my phone would turn on quicker?
oh god...
Don't answer my question with the word but. It's NOT an answer. So lets take the question again and this time do only reply to the question:
Is you problem random reboots or a bootloop?
Those 2 are NOT the same, while random reboots is exactly what the name implies a bootloop implies that your phone is unable to enter the android system due to a failure on startup.
So please in order for anyone to help you, you must make it very clear what you problem is, as otherwise we cannot tell you what to do.
Everything you have told up until now is that you have some problem(you use bootloop and random reboot equally) and that you might or might not know that it happens when running some specific apps.

Sorry. By bootloop I mean my phone restarts and then just starts viberating and just stays in white htc logo screen. But after some time I can enter android system. This happanes when I do something with my phone.
If I may throw 2 cents in...
I do not know if this will be the fix for you, but if I had this issue, the first thing I would do is boot the phone up and wait until it loads properly (I gather it loads sometimes but not others, which is why you watched a movie??), make a Titanium backup of everything, then Nandroid backup.
Next, do full wipe
1 Factory reset
2 (in Mounts/Storage) Format Dalvic/data/sdext/system
3 (in Advanced) Wipe Dalvic cache.
Now reflash your ROM and restore Titanium.
Might all sound like basic stuff, but any time I have had issues with bootloops or FCs or whatever, it's usually because I didn't wipe properly. Now I always wipe everything with new ROMs and never have an issue.
If this doesn't help, you may commence panicking I'M KIDDING!!

Hello LordRyve,
follow the great description from 777ace , these are the steps which should bring your Desire back.
I only would not restore all the programs via Titanium Backup after your fresh install. The reason is that there might be a "bad" program you have installed before. Just restore a program, check if system runs without problems, then restore the next and so on.
But NEVER restore system apps via Titanium backup - this mostly WILL mess up your system!
And before flashing devnull ROM download it again and check the MD5SUM, just to be sure your downloaded ROM is ok.
Good luck

Well now it runs rll great And I didn't do anything different. It restarted while charging but at about 98% it was cold again and I succesufly turened it on with first try. If something will go wrong i'll try do 777ace guide. Now I would like to ask...what to do that files would get transefered from my pc to sd faster? Because when my battery is not full it starts charging and overheating and restarting. Also isnt overheating and restarting caused by bad motherboard?

Sure you can.
With a bad app I ment that an app can mess up your system (not a corrupted program file).
For example task killers I would name "bad" apps as they are useless in current ROM and maybe could things worse.
A very important tip at the end: perform Nandroid backups on a regular basis - so you can allways come back to a working system.

Do you use Windows or Linux? For me file transfer on Linux is much slower compared to Windows. Sometimes it helps to switch to another USB port on your PC.
Does your Desire also restarts when you use the power supply (charging not via PC)?

Windows. Yes. It gets overheat. And switching to another USB port didn't helped. But I noticed that usb cable's part that puts into pc was a bit hot.

Hello everyone,
I got me a GIO for christmas and I'm quite content with this phone, but I've had frequent reboots due to a bug in the WLAN driver (as far as I have read). So I decided to install a custom ROM and I chose CM 7.2, which works great most of the time apart from one major annoyance: every time I restart the phone (had to switch it off during exams, the phone's misbehaving, whatever reason) I'm getting into bootloops. The only solution: wipe user data, reflash, wipe user data, restore all settings, etc.
I read that these bootloops aren't uncommon, but I feel that I should be able to reboot my phone without having to set everything up again.
So my questions are: a) Is it perfectly normal what I am experiencing? b) Is there something obvious I am doing wrong? c) What could I do better? Is there a good way to backup my user data and restore it into a fresh system without having to reboot? How could I possible get rid of those bootloops? How could I help the ROMs developer to help me get rid of the bootloops?
I'd be very thankful for any directions

Hi voetbalremco,
Thank you for your prompt reply. I have installed Titanium Backup now, for all I have read that should at least make restoring my "system" after a re-flash more bearable. The only thing I'm worrying about is that the TB wiki states that I have to reboot the phone after restoring system settings, but thanks again for the hint. I'll tell you how it worked, when (hopefully if) I run into the need of a re-flash.

Maybe your download was corrupt or whatever... try re-downloading the latest CM7.2.
I doubt that the download was corrupt. I have had this problem for various versions now (CM7.1RC + subsequent patches, CM7.2 + patch). But just to make sure, are the md5 sums of the original files anywhere?
Is there a way I could turn off the boot animation and get debug output on the screen so I can see what's going on when it bootloops?
HI all,
I've flashed CWM5.5 from the recomended thread and installed Cyanogen 9 Alpha 1. Unfortunatly the phone seems to boot up but does never leave the boot animation screen (yes I've also flashed gapps after cyanogen).
Anyone can identify this pattern? On a normal device I could hook it up through a serial cable and try to debug the boot... Eventually how can I do that with a I8150?
Well, any help would be most welcome. I'm totally available for testing and I do have some experience with Linux even at a very low level/system space.
Install
Use CWM5.
Warning: Only use this recovery to flash CM9. Otherwise, you risk bricking your phone!
Wipe data and cache.
Flash update*.zip.
Flash gapps*.zip. You must flash gapps after every upgrade to CM9 since /system is formatted, wiping your previous add-ons.
Reboot phone.
After you setup your Google account, reinstall the three apps from Market in order to restore most of your apps, call log and SMS history.
Warning: Do not restore backup data of system apps!
If you restore a bad backup with cached settings in telephony.db in data/data/com.*.*.telephony it can break MMS.
It seems that restoring backups can also break Calendar sync.
read it thoroughly ...
1st you must flash update*.zip
2nd gapps*.zip
that just about it ....
what is your current kernel ?
That was pretty much it... I've restored not the original operator crap ROM, but instead the Value Pack ROM.
CyanogenMod9 seemed to install ok, but just looped and the phone didn't finished the boot. I'm not really sure on what happened. I'm just finishing restoring the stuff
I'm guessing you didn't wipe data/cache.
I did a factory reset, but sure, it might not have wiped the whole thing... Going to try again.
@argo68
True mate, the issue was not wiping the user cache. I've wiped the cache now from ClockWorkMod and it worked ok. Takes some time to boot compared to the stock samsung ROMs but it works fine
Anything you need tested ? I can most likely help.
I do have a problem with apps though, for example, GMAIL doesn't show the body of the message... as you can see on the screenshot, but I guess this is a app related issue maybe?
http://susepaste.org/images/39081870.png
After a reboot somehow it boots a bit faster and the gmail app is now displaying the body of the email and it seems a bit faster...
Good work, gonna ride this for a few days and see what happens.
@argo68
If you need beta testers, let me know. I'm off work this days but can't wait to get into my lab and check this stuff deeper

Hi I'm using this cyanogen mod for quite a few days now. The back side of the phone is always warm and the battery is drained very fast. Anyone have this similar problem?
I'm sure that I install the ROM correctly as i cleared everything on the phone with CWM 5.0.0.4 before and after. (Phone data / Cache Partition / Dalvik Cache / Battery Cache)
Any help would be appretiated
No such problem here. You should use an app to check what frequency the phone is running at in idle, and also how much load there is on the cpu.
As the title suggests my phone refuses to boot properly after a reboot. I flash a new rom and everything works fine but when it comes to powering it off/rebooting it will either hang on the boot animation (the animation will play but nothing else- In the case of Sandvolds ROM) or it will boot, screen will go blank, vibrate and boot again only to go straight into recovery (when using this ROM)
I'm stuck on Sandvold's 0.12 rom (since I did a Nandroid backup of it, that's the only ROM which works. Anything new and it refuses to reboot).
Using 4EXT recovery, format all partitions (except SD card), using SuperWipe script, CM7 hBoot, S-Off.
Any fixes? I've tried a lot of potential fixes (reflashing the rom etc) but every time the same thing happens- the reboot never works. I can leave it for an hour (which I have twice) and it will always just stay on the animation making me have to restore the backup.

I was reading that earlier. It seems to be something with ICS and JB. Also reading the latter pages of Sandvold's thread, seems the latest version of the Playstore is creating bootloops and there's means to temporarily fix it using adb but that's all I got.
Don't know if this will help however but I suppose it's worth a shot- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34429350&postcount=16767

I don't know myself but it may work. Apps may not work however since they call back on the store to see if you've purchased it (or for your phone to re-download the apps after you login with your google account).
So I'm having a problem I can't seem to fix.
I'm rooted, have been running the stock everything but with a few tweaks and some bloat removed. Everything works great but I am hoping to improve battery life. So I researched a few ROMs and pick a couple to try. I can flash them just fine with no problems, get all my apps back and set up with no problems. and I can use the phone all day just like normal.
Now the problem: if ever I have to restart for some reason, or even after I make a nandroid back up, when it restarts and boots up I eventually get several messages where processes are one by one stopping. until the phone is useless and froze up.
So it goes through 10 or more of these:
Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped
Unfortunately, the process android.process.phone has stopped
etc, etc,etc
I have tried everything I could find on here to fix, but it seems all fixes are for a single process failing. This happens to me on all Roms I have tried, but I am just wanting to run Sonic. Even if I restore the nandroid I get the messages. If I factory reset or restore my kid-of-stock backup I am fine. If I start over and reflash a clean Rom I can set up and use but as soon as I restart it happens again. Sometimes when restarting I get a message about android updating but can't figure out how to stop that from happening.
Thanks in advance for any help!!! This is very annoying.
Are you doing full wipes and factory reset? If you are doing this between each flash then it sounds like you are restoring bad data into your apps.

Try re-flashing the latest Gapps and seeing if that will help.

I thought the same thing so I tried without putting back in any apps. And still happened. And if I flash Sonic with TB it does it right away when I get booted up for some reason.

Thanks, I'll try to find the latest Gapps now and report back if it helps out. But I'm not real familiar with the Gapps part so it may take some searching to figure out what theya re for Sonic Rom if it matters the rom.
This is the reason why I do not do any backup.. Most stuff on my phone is not important enought to require a back up.. If I have issues, I just reinstall the rom and my apps from the market.. I have only reinstalled my current rom once, and that is because I was not able to change my current prl...

Sounds like you need to do a FULL Wipe before you Flash. Also make sure your Downloading the Rom over WiFi, or Hardline.

Do not restore anything with TB whatsoever and I can assure you it will work. There is corrupt data somewhere.

The process I use for Flashing Roms is the same one I've always used. It's the one that's in my Sig. I'll also relink, in case your on the mobile. I have used it for a very long time now. It avoids a lot of the hassles of a bad flash.

Thank You All
Thank you all for your help!!!
So far I have managed to flash the rom and reboot several times with no issues.
I have only had this GS3 for a week now and I feel I can finally play with some roms and see what I like. I usually find one I like and stick with it. On my EVO Shift I used the same rom for 2 years.
Here is what I did for anyone that may have same problem:
Wiped everything, per-normal.
Loaded ROM.
Loaded a few of the apps I wanted to keep some settings for (like GO Launcher and Handcent) using Rom Toolboxes App manager.
I then rebooted to see if I had any problems... none.
Used Rom Toolbox to install just the apps and no data for my other 50+ apps I wanted to keep.
Made Nandroid backup, which forced reboot... no problems.
Installed Titanium Backup, this is where I was nervous because I thought it might be that app causing problems with asking about new ID and such. Installed just 2 apps that I wanted to keep data for that Rom Toolbox for whatever reason didn't have, maybe I didn't have a recent backup. 2 apps were Tasker and GO Bookmark widget. When asked to change ID I selected "later" and after restoring 2 apps I imediatly deleted TB.
Reboot to see if I got errors... none
Setup all settings and tweaks I wanted.
Made Nandroid backup... no issues yet
I then deleted all TB backups I had on SD card figuring one was the culprit.
I am still nervous to re install TB but at least as of now I have a working nandroid to revert to so after a couple days I will reuse it.
As of now I have had no issues what so ever... and I can tell battery life on this Sonic rom is much better.
Glad your all sorted out . I do not think that Titanium Backup the App itself is was causing the issues. Although I do recognize somethings that could. Restoring GoLauncher with settings Data could cause issues. Especially from one Rom to the next. Hopefully your not trying to restore the Data settings you had on the Shift. Also with Handcent, I would not restore settings across different Roms.

So it goes through 10 or more of these:
Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped
Unfortunately, the process android.process.phone has stopped
etc, etc,etc
I have tried everything I could find on here to fix, but it seems all fixes are for a single process failing. This happens to me on all Roms I have tried, but I am just wanting to run Sonic. Even if I restore the nandroid I get the messages. If I factory reset or restore my kid-of-stock backup I am fine. If I start over and reflash a clean Rom I can set up and use but as soon as I restart it happens again. Sometimes when restarting I get a message about android updating but can't figure out how to stop that from happening.
Thanks in advance for any help!!! This is very annoying.

I had the exact same problem with a reoccurring message that would flash on and off every second or so. I did both a data restart then a reboot of the android software by pushing the down volume button then holding the power button. When the LG logo appeared I released both buttons and followed the instructions for an android factory reboot. Apparently it is the SIM card. The android com.android.phone communicates with the SIM card and allows calls and texts to be sent and received using the android software. My SIM card got damaged somehow and could not receive the call from the android app com.android.phone. I had to buy a new SIM card for ten dollars and had my stored files on the SIM moved to the new one and no more problems. Telus and Bell move the files to the new SIM for free i'm sure other major service providers offer the same free service.
@pokey2000 Thanks for that info. But this is the Sprint S3 section. And the user you are replying to has a Sprint S3. Sprint phones are Cdma and do not have a removable sim card.
