Hey there a little advice if you will, ive got a HTC Desire S and i am running Gingervillan 2.0 rom which ive had for a while now but recently the phone keeps re-booting itself, sometimes it gets quite hot 38-39 degrees when im using it quite alot (music and web mostly) but it reboots now even when its cool 30 degrees.
Anyone had anything similair?
and are there any new roms out that dont have issues like this?

I'm not sure if it is because this phone is second hand or if there is a software issue inside this Android flash, but when I bought the phone it was on stock Android 2.2.1 and had been factory reset as expected. However after using the phones features for half a day or so things started deteriorating (for example the settings app force closed), to combat this I did another factory reset and again things were still force closing, so I did yet another. Everything from this seems fine except now if I'm playing music through the stock player it appears after so long it force closes and won't work until the phone is restarted. When I get home I'll be flashing CM7 but I'm wondering what the problem could be. Any ideas?

Hi everyone,
both my wife and I own a HTC Desire (AMOLED). My wife has had the following problem for a while on her unrooted, stock-ROM Desire:
Every now and then the Handy will suddenly restart (show the HTC boot logo) when using Navigation apps. No matter if Google Maps Navigation or other navigation software. Sometimes, this happens after some seconds, sometimes after an hour or so.
No problems so far with my desire.
Last month, I rooted/s-off'ed both devices, did a full wipe and complete fresh install of all apps of both devices, both running on InsertCoin 1.1.4 now.
On this occasion, I also updated Radio ROM of both phones to 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23 (latest Version so far, I think).
Some days later, my phone now also randomly crashes on GPS navigation use. Both run stable, as long as we do not use GPS navigation.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
It's usually an overheating issue that needs HTC to swap the mainboard

Thanks for your reply, though it's sure not what I wanted to hear (actually, what I wanted to hear is something like "push this button and your problem will be solved", but it's not what I expected .
(On overheating: The phone did never crash on other occasions when becoming warm. After a reboot, when restarting navigation, it does not crash again immediately but may work for hours...not too typical for an overheating problem, is it?)
I think I'll wait 'till spring 2012 and get some Ice Cream Sandwich thing then ;-)
You know the desire has a 2 year warranty though, right??
So a couple of days ago, my Nexus was just fine. Smooth as butter..then i decided to charge it overnight as usual(the phone was not turned off). next day, i pick the device..everything is normal. Couple of hours later, out of NOWHERE, strange things begin to occur. Some apps coudn't load properly(the would open, but kept loading forever), none of my videos would play(they keep loading, won't start), even using different players, the camera would not load, black screen and nothing when i open the app..tried other camera apps as well, same thing happens with the gallery..
i mean, i don't recall doing anything different. My phone is rooted with CNA, never experienced anything like this before.
i already did wipe data/factory reset, wiped cache, etc. tried several other Roms as well..it remains the same.
it just boggles my mind what may be causing this "behavior", It was really out of nowhere.

ok, so after further observation, the thing with the videos is that i can't play them using any kind of hardware decoding..they still play( choppy) with soft decoding
a hardware malfunction maybe?
unbeliavable..
Could be a bad battery.

Unfortunately i don't have an extra battery at hand
Last night tried the following:
1 - Factory reset/wipe data
2- Reflash the stock rom, relocked bootloader
Put the phone literally back to the way i got him, and STILL have the same issues!!!! It's just so weird, some apps are normal, others crash every single time, black screen on camera app, gallery opens but sometimes show pics, and others just keep loading and eventually crashes, can't play videos with HW decoding(manage to play fine twice but i have no idea how).
Again, it just happened out of nowhere! The thing is unusable at this point, just unbelievable!!!!
I'm willing to bet you it's definitely a bad battery

I'm using an HTC Sensation, and have been for about 2 years, when I got the phone I initially rommed Revolution on it, and have run into some issues with a few updates on apps etc due to it. It occasionally crashes if the Camera app is left open, or any other app that utilizes the camera. Recently I've been trying to get some new software on it, but even with factory resets and complete wipes in rom installs, I get infinite bootloops and can't figure out why. If I could get some assistance with this, that would be amazing..
Have you updated to the latest firmware ... 3.33...
