First of all, hello everyone.
Few days ago I bought used htc Desire phone. In the next day I noticed that my clock drifts off the real time.
It takes 68 seconds for a minute to pass and it realy pisses me off, since I've missed so many classes in past few days because of that.
I've flashed numerous ROM's and nothing changed. I've been trying with 2.2.2 stock, 2.3.3 stock, Mildwild based on oxygen, Runnymede AIO, Runny RSK, some ICS roms etc,etc,etc. Every damn time that happens.
Before every flashing I perform full wipe and wipe dalvik cache. I even falshed stock hboot to CM7r2 in hopes it would change something. The only solution is app ClockSync but since i'm not on Data plan I can use it only when I'm home.
Is there anything I could change in software of whatever to make it count correctly? Also I tried TimeZone Fixer but nothing...
ATM I have installed official CM 7.1
very very strange behaviour
hboot will have nothing to do with time...only modifies partition spaces. it's strange that it's occurring on any rom, which makes me think it's something to do with phone's internal clock.
there should be an option in settings-> date and time-> automatic
make sure the automatic option is checked, it should poll the network provided value, don't think it uses any data?
I've checked, unchecked it and it doesn't change the time at all. Is it possible to change phones "Automatic time" source?
Don't think you can change the source as it's from your network provider. Only thing I can suggest is to reboot after you've re-selected that option.
I don't want to sound dismissive, but you could use a proper watch and alarm clock if this strange problem persists. The solution is not always within the phone

Hi all,
I own a Desire GSM version and been running a pre-rooted stock ROM for quite a while and have been very happy with it. I have been running this with an ext3 partition and ran app2sd+ script to make use of it. All good.
My sense of curiosity got stronger and always wanted to try a custom ROM so I tried Cyanogenmod 7 RC1 on Monday.
I have been running the latest Radio (32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27) so didn’t have to update that for CM7.
I formatted the DATA as well as the CACHE before flashing the CM7 ROM, then applied GAPPS to the ROM then restarted the phone.
All went OK and I loved this new ROM, except that I have been experiencing very strange connection issues whether I am on WiFi or 3G (Vodafone AU). The phone will establish connection; however sometimes will not be able to get data out of a request as simple as getting emails, opening a webpage through the stock browser etc …
The workaround to that was to tun off wifi and turn it back on, same for 3G …
I re-flashed numerous times the ROM (formatting the CACHE/DATA each times) but was still experiencing these issues, when sometimes I couldn’t even set my Google account at the first start of the phone…
After a couple of days of scratching my head I did find a potential solution that was suggesting updating the /system/lib/libhtc_ril.so file with the one provided in the nightly build. This had no effect what so ever to the situation.
I then decided to go back to FroYo () so re-flashed the pre-rooted ROM, but then I experienced the exact same issue!! I then re-flashed the Radio ROM thinking this may have been affected by all these changes but no changes at all …
I am a bit at a loss here and don’t know how to fix that really …
Is there any setting that resides on the phone relating to Radio ROM even if I format both Data and Cache each time I flash the ROM??
Thanks for your help guys.
Any ideas on this issue at all ??
hello everyone ive been a long time browser of this forum. i followed guides on how to root and install custom roms thru this forum with success. ive been using cyanogenmod 7.0.3 stable on my g2 for the a month.
my text message alerts suddenly stopped working two days ago. i would have to reboot my phone to get the alerts working again. the next day the alerts will stop working again and i have to reboot, ive been doing this for a while and its getting to the point where its becoming a problem. my cpu is stock speed and radio is stock, just root and cm7. is this a common issue and is there a fix for it?

I've never heard about anyone having this problem. I'd wait until alerts stopped working again, then check SMS settings to see if any of the settings somehow got changed. If they remain unchanged, I'd perform a cache wipe, dalvik cache wipe (multiple times for both) and reboot the phone.
If that doesn't work, nandroid backup, wipe data, cache, and dalvik (multiple times) and re-flash the ROM. Other than that, I can't think of anything else that would help. Good luck!
Same thing happened to me..first make sure youre profiles arent conflicting with the system settings, then make sure you have a match with ruu (which is what fixed mine)

i checked the profiles and all the settings are set to no override for the text messages. whats the ruu?
Perhaps your SMS app is being dumped due to low memory. You could give this a try...

Hi,
I am having a really odd and very frustrating issue with the latest CM7 Stable Build on my device.
I have been using the latest stable since its release back in November.
I ensured a clean wipe and install of CM 7.1.0.1 and setup my phone accordingly and Nandroid Back Up around a Week later as the Device was behaving as intended.
Sadly, I am now plagued with the following issue which occurs without any common trigger....
I will be using the device which will be behaving normally and it will suddenly, normally when screen is off... reboot and enter a Boot Loop (CM7 Robot will either be frozen solid or will keep rebooting to CM7 Robot) which seems to continue until a battery pull.
I will then restart the device and it sometimes boots straight away though sometimes hangs for a while. Once booted it boot to the 'Setup your device' Screen, from which point onwards you are required to Re-Enter your Logins for Google and such like. All settings and sync profiles are normally missing/deleted so requires setting up of all apps requiring logins etc.
As you can imagine, the above is quite an inconvenient as it normally happens when I actually need to use the device
I have tried reinstalling a clean CM7 over the top as well as wiping and formatting the SD card.
Neither seem to have solved the issue.
Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.
It is also worth noting that while the device will charge off USB, it will not allow usb tethering or any form of USB Mounting etc.
Cheers
Jason

cm7 issues.
sounds like your in quite a pickle my friend.
i used to get your reboot issues (the bootloops) but that was because my phone was overclocked to over 700. i never got the setup device screen though.
when you say youve tried a clean install over cm7 have you factory reset the device as well as deleteing the dalvik cache??
also my sound stupid but have you tried your backup to see if it starts again??
it sounds like something has became quite corrupted.
have you installed any new apps recently or changed anything in the system files of the phone?
also when you have to go through the set up are all your apps still there afterwards? And when you first flashed it did the tethering work at all?

Yup and while it does restore to a point where I can use my phone quite quickly after however I'm very cautious after - typically it happens a couple of weeks later

No real new recent apps installed and no mods to the system files that I can recall.

All my apps are still installed but many apps require re-setup or accounts for sync require re-adding. Phonebook requires import of contacts however messages remain in place.
I can't recall I think it did or at least USB-Storage did
Do you have a SD ext partition?
I ask because I had similar problems (randomly losing data) with an ext 4 partition, repartitioning my card using ext 3 solved it, also put your dalvik cache and data back into phone memory if it isn't already as that can also cause instability.

Try this....
Run an RUU for wildfire.
- Download (RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2_R_C_Radio_13.45.55.24 _ 3.35.15.19_release_141106_signed) from android forums.
- Connect phone to PC and run RUU
- This downgrads phone OS to eclair (android 2.1)
- Let it do the bizniss
- Re-root with unrevoked 3
- Re-Flash CM7 and gApps
Many thanks Scratch and Arkose,
Since my post last week I have since formatted the SD Card as well as Wiping the Phone as much as possible.
I then flashed and installed the latest CM7 Stable, Radio Package as well as re-setting up the EXT Partition this time as Type 3.
Once up and running I reinstalled all Apps.
Seems to be running okay so far.
Long may it last hopefully.
If not will try last suggesion
Great stuff. Let us know how it goes

A quick update...
Still having issues
I'm noticing that randomly phone process will crash for no apparent reason/cause, normally when off Wifi and on Mobile Data.
Last night was the worst its even been though... at a critical moment when I needed the phone to work... it decided it was having none of it.
Phone kept switching Airplane Mode On and Off causing process.android.com to crash along with most other services So I rebooted only to find that it now was either stuck in Airplane Mode or couldnt enable to Radio (No Phone Signal at all) so I did a battery pull while trying to walk home in the pitch black and rebooted.
The Saga continued even after a battery pull, I eventually as I got in the door was able to use the 'Torch' and recieve a phonecall before all the processes crashed once more...
So I did a battery pull, left the phone for five mins and rebooted. All was well for a while, enabled Wifi, phone seemed happy.
Had to reboot a short while ago, after recieiving a phonecall and text.... grrr... anyone have any suggestions?
I had problem with process restarting. Adw launcher process I downloaded Go Launcher ex I have no problems now.

Hi all,
every time when I start or restart (normal or hot) my DHD the sound profile will be set to 'normal' independent from the selected sound profile before. I select the 'just vibrate' sound profile, shut down and restart or just restart my DHD again. At the beginning the previous selected sound profile is active but suddenly it changes to 'normal' again.
The day before yesterday I have flashed LeeDroid 5.1.1. Thus I assume the issue has to do with LeeDroid (not sure if this is really the case). I was not able to find anything in the settings and don't have an app installed which could do that. Furthermore I was not able to find anything regarding this topic via Google or forum searches.
Maybe some of you have or had the same issue and know how to fix it?
Many thanks in advance.

Did you clear cache and dalvik cache before flashing? and did you fully wipe data?
It shouldn't be happening because the rom i'm on (sense 3.5), it doesn't give that sort of issue and i don't think leedroid should give you any issue like that since it is one of those old roms which are bug free...try what i told you to do and if it still gives you problem then your best bet is to flash a new rom...
Thanks for your reply.
I have flashed LeeDroid 5.1.0 via Rom Manager and selected the options for clearing cache and dalvik cache. After that I flashed the 5.1.1 patch to solve the 'no signal' issue (without wiping again). Which data do I have to wipe fully? I have also tried to use the wipe/factory reset functionality in the recovery mode but without flashing the ROM again (I have restored the created backup of LeeDroid - maybe that's what I shouldn't do?).
I'll give it another try with full data wipe before.
The last 2 weeks I had a lot of problems with my desire. First I flashed it again to get more space, by using the sc card. This time trying the CronMod script for CM7, which seems to be working.
But new I got another problem. No matter how the ringetone settings is, it allways start out as silent and on vibrate. I want it to remember the actual settings. I have tried to flash both CM7.1 and CM7.2 several times, but it doesn't help. The way solution I found until now, is to flash the stock rom, which I don't want because of the space problem.
Is this a bug or what, and is there anything I can do to overcome it, cause it's pretty annoying?
