Occasional Reboot causes hangs?

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.

[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!

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.

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.

[Q] Wi-fi doesn't work what to do?

I tried to use different ROMs and Radios and no one can help me. When I turn on wi-fi it shows me "Error" all the time. What can I do to fix it? Some sayd me to open my phone, find wi-fi module and check a cable, but I don't have any chance to do it. What can you advise me? Thank

I had the same problem with HoneySense RC1, but I reflashed the ROM then UNITY V4 w/o booting between and has been working good...that's what I did with Honeysense but without knowing what ROM you're using it's hard to say what the problem is!!!!

I have Shokouhi Saga G2 ROM. But I installed a lot of different ROMs and no one helped me. Maybe today or tommorow I will install UNITY v4 and then write there what will happen. thank
installed UNITY v4 and nothing changed. Maybe i've done something wrong? Can You say me, how i should use this? I loaded ROM manager, booted into Recovery and flashed UNITY. What else? Thank

You will need to do a fresh install of a ROM but this has worked for me in the past also... Just flash the .zip like a ROM, then flash your ROM and then UNITY4 (only if you're using a Sense ROM)!!! Try that on for size, if that doesn't work you need someone more talented than I am!!!

Done all this what you said me and nothing changed I turned on a wi-fi and it started and tried to find network, but after 5 seconds it shows me "can not start a scan for a network"
Maybe when I dropped my phone on the ground and that damaged a wi-fi module...

[Q] Radio issue, flashing does not help

Hi xda community, this is my first post here, although im am following the forums for a while now. I have also read similar threads, and googled for about 3 hours now, and still couldnt fix the following issue:
I installed CM7.1.0.1 on the standard HTC Wildfire, and the GPS doesnt work. the radio version was 3.35.20.10, and I downgraded it to 3.35.19.25 but still nothing. problem is i cant get the signal, and there is no satellite icon on the status bar. like nothing is happening. I reverted the radio to 3.35.20.10 but still nothing. what do you recommend? are there any special methods to fix the issue? I did it by downgrading the recovery to 2.0.5 or something and then istalled the zip from the sd card.
edit1: downloaded GPS Test (i am not advertising, some1 might find it useful) and got the icon on the status bar. ill go and test it, and will update the post.
edit2: seems to work, found 7 satellites in 3 seconds with GPS Test. turned off wi-fi, started a popular navi app, locked signal after few seconds. maybe ill set it to solved?
Long story short:
Downgraded Radio
Upgraded Radio
Downloaded and started GPS Test, outside
Found satellites, icon is also there
started a navi app, locked signal

Same problem, still no solution though...
I had, still have the same issue. And I have already tried all that you have done in vain...
Any one else had that issue?
Thanks

Flash a sense based rom, turn on GPS, open Google maps and leave it to get a good fix. Without changing anything pop out the battery and then reboot to recovery and either restore a Cm7 backup or flash the rom again.

Thanks. Trying that now...will edit after.
EDIT: Can't find a proper Sense based ROM. Tried REMPuzzzle but phone stuck on HTC Screen. Downloading DK CustomROM now... If anyone knows whether there is a safe flash Stock ROM around, please do tell. The link in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275680 is dead.
FINAL EDIT
@saadislam and @LucidSomnia: I know, but when I said it takes time, I meant like over 2.5 hours, I think there might have been something wrong in the zip file.
Anyways thank you for all of you there in XDA Community for your support. I finally managed to sort it out by using Scratch0805's advice above and it works fine now.
**The only issue I got was to find a Sense-based ROM. Everything I tried either had an error, could not install, corrupted or took TOOOO LOOOONG to load. So here are the steps I have taken:
1. I used RUU to start over with a Stock ROM. [ available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275680&highlight=rom ]
2. Re-root [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035 and/or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365159&highlight=rooting+guide ]
3. Flash new Radio (20.10) since rooting goes back to 19.25 or 15.35.
4. Install and run GPS Test (on the Stock ROM)
5. Allow it to lock on couple of satellites.
6. Pop the battery out.
7. Boot into Recovery.
8. Use a Nandroid backup (or you could install a fresh one)
9. Enjoy GPS Working again!!!
Thank you again XDA Community!

Are you sure the radio was reflashed... I am saying this because when I tried to flash radio via recovery, it completed and I reboot.. but Gps wasn't fixed.. I rechecked the radio version but it was the older one so basically radio wasn't flashed...
So I went on to flash via flashboot.. this time all process was completed and Gps worked fine afterwards...
Radio version 20.10 is the one which has always worked for me...
And one thing more.. Rempuzzle Rom takes time to load first time...

That happens to all roms because dalvik cache has to be rebuild.

You didn't do anything wrong while flashing? Or maybe a mod? Maybe even an app? You could try to flash the ROM and don't install apps and see how that goes for some days. If that doesnt work maybe you could flash stock via fastboot and then flash the ROM.
