HTC Home 2.0.1025.721 (New version) - Is it working for you?

I've tried this new version found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1769023) hoping that it would solve the freezing-on-incoming-call problem that I experience intermittently.
I've unionstalled the old version, rebooted, installed the new, rebooted again for the sake of safety, but it doesn't show up in the screen, even if I've enalbed it in Today settings.
Are you experiencing this problem too?
@mamaich, and the others: how can we solve?

Hi Bro,
I've totally given up with any version of HTC Home Today no matter how cool it is as it locks up the phone when receiving calls.
The only solution to avoid crash is to run in portrait mode which unfortunately doesn't suit me. Instead, I'll wait for HTC Shift's SnapVue to run in Uni, why not? It runs on HTC Athena!?
Cheers!

yeah, even the HTC Home runs in the athena... it runs in the kaiser...and in the touch, too... so why shouldn't it run on the Universal...
argh... i hate the universal!!!

I think only a few of us are having the freeze/crash problem. Most Uni users don't seem to have any problems at all.

I don't think so. Most uni users switch ROM every 2 days and they don't use the PDA for anything serious at all.
If something suddendly stops working (as it is frequently the case) they just hard reset the device.
I want to use my universal and upgrade the ROM only when needed, when something really new comes out.

Hi guys,
I too get this same problem, and it is very annoying, and yes I do use my Uni for more than just a toy.
Hope we get a working solution soon
ciao

confirmed... hangs upon incoming call.... the phone would keep vibrating while all keys/buttons/screen area are locked, no way to answer it....does not stop so had to reset.

you mean this new version? or the old version?

Nice to see "some" of you with the "crash on receiving calls in laptop mode" problem post here!
I use my Uni too as a PDA & a business tool & that made me to conclude that plugin is not for me. The plugin is a beauty but functionality comes first to me. Unless a solution can be found I've learned to live without it!
Going back on topic, haven't tried this version yet but the previous 2.xxxx versions installs well but causes the horrible crash.

I think the version i've found is newer... the version number is higher, and the file was posted just yesterday (29th december) ... in contrast, the version found at your link was posted on november... (but we may well give it a try!)
thanks tho...

HTC Home v.2.1.1005.722 is more then HTC Home v.2.0.1025.721

you are right
but i don't think that version has the VGA fix applied...

Anyway even the link pointed to by wuwuwu doesn't work. Same thing. HTC HOme selected in the setting but it doesn't appear.

me too have the same issue. I have switched to JW 1533 which i feel is the most stable ROM

Battery Drain

How can you say that? When the device is in standby, no other program is running. When the device is on, HTC Home causes no major cpu usage (except maybe once a minute, when btw every plugin has a greater chance to use the CPU to redraw itself)

I NEED HELP ........ plzzzzz help meeeeee

hello pals ,i have an O2 xda zinc & i think its a nice phone... it was working fine but recently the problem had developed that it turns off on its own when the
battery is at 50% & it wont turn on unless i connect it with the charger & the phone will only run normally if the battery status is above 50 %
i had updated it to wm6 latest rom but its the same ....moreover i cant replace the unit or send it for service coz i had bought it from grey market for a hefty amount & I NEVER KNEW IT WASNT A HTC DEVICE ...
I FEEL THAT I M STUCK. PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ HELP ME

Try a New Battery
Have you tried a new battery? Although you may think its getting a full charge maybe you got a bad or refurbished battery try that first.

yeah
Yeah i had tried that .... it didnt helped ................

62 VIEWS & ONLY 1 REPLY ... COME ON GUYSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

have you tried reflashing? to clean out anything that may be jacked up?
what have you recently changed? i think i would definitely try flashing a clean rom and see what happens there (back-up first of course in case it doesnt help and you want to flash back and get all your stuff back)

wow then, well...im sorry to say, but you're probably out of luck. if you have tried replacing the hardware as well as the software, then there must be some sort of problem with the battery connection or some other internal issue...something you wouldn't likely be able to fix.
sorry, good luck.

UMM i guess i m stucked .. can any one plzz gimme some idea whats wrong with my ppc

I sense that you might be desperate for ideas....
I've had some odd battery problems, too, and what seems to help me the most is to drain the battery entirely, or at least very, very close to it, and then recharge it without interruption completely.
AEBPlus has a "disable "power off" if not used function that might keep it powered up while you drain it, or might, on an outside chance, even solve your problem.
It almost sounds as if the unit is telling you the batttery is at 50%, but really it's just about drained. It could be there's something set somewhere to have it power off at 50% rather than 0-5% like usual, but the former sounds more likely to me. You might want to check to see what sort of time/usage other units like yours get out of a battery-full. Maybe just reading your numbers differently (50=0, 75=50 etc.) is the way to go.

Problem with HTC HD7 Camera

Hello
Now i am going to return my HTC HD7 phone and change it for a new one.
Why?
The camera wont turn on neither on the camera button neither in the menu.
Here is the film, what it actually does.
I understand that i am not allone with this camera issue.
So far there is no solution for this problem so in this case there is only return and get a new one option.

Camera Issue Solution
I had the same problem with my HTC HD7 and have found a possible solution. I simply took the battery out and my SIM card, let it sit for about 1 minute. Put the SIM card back in and the battery then turned the phone back on. It fixed my camera issue.
I am not saying this will fix the issue permanently but it worked for me, I havent had any issues with the camera thus far.

Yet another reason to stop buying HTCs phones IMO.

HTC = High Tech Crap!

Wow, two imbeciles come in here and spread BS instead of answering and helping OP.
OP, I've never had that problem nor have I heard of it, so it's most definitely specific to your device so using the manufacturers warranty and getting a replacement is definitely the best solution, although nando's workaround might work...or a hard reset if it's a glitch.

AFAIK Its a windows phone issue, It has nothing to do with htc, HD7 or whatever.
It happens to zune, and marketplace too, and It only takes a simple reboot to solve it.
Still, if you believe its an hd7 issue, you shouldnt be asking it here. This is a windows-phone 7 forum, and device-related problems should be asked in their respective forums.

I have fixed this problem by myself, its an hardware problem. Nobody helped about the solution even HTC engineers. I can send the solution photos. [email protected] (Antalya/TURKEY)

The same problem
Nobody can help me with It? I have the ecxatly same problem...

As stated already, You might get better help with HD7 issues if you post in the HD7 specific forum, and it might help to keep the device trolls at bay...
Sent from my SGH-i917 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App

I tried two ways of succesfully fixing this:
-3 times hard resetting
-3times soft resetting
Both did the trick for me, but for obvious reasons I now always soft reset 3 times whenever this occurs.
(Hasn't happened since NoDo tho..)

(sorry for my bad english)..
I do have a same problem. I am from indonesia, already told the shop which i bought this phone. They cant give me any replacement, only said, under repair or somekind of service.
Actually i rarely use handphone camera, but under this situation, felt weird. Any one has solution? please share..

It's a hardware issue with certain batch of the HTC HD7. I suggest you take your phone in for a replacement.

But they wont replace for a new one, i just bought it 3 weeks ago. The said they will repair it or under service. What a shame..

My buddy's HD7 had the same problem but seemed to go away with NODO. Is your phone all updated?

Hi there
I had the same issue with my HD7. O2 serviced it for me and it worked for another few months. Today the camera wont load again. I would say it is a software issue rather that hardware issue as I remember when it happened before soft reset and then hard reset could fix the issue till it completely stopped.
I need to take it again to the service.

it's remind me my desire phone ( android ) i had the same problem after clockword and cooked rom install. i just updated the phone radio and all was ok.
I know it's not the same plateform but i hope it can help maby try to update software.

HTC HD7 Camera Dead
Hi all,
I have the same problem - just went to use the camera on day and no response. Pressing the camera button or intiating from within the software just results in the menu scrolling away (as though the camera is starting) and then scrolling back.
I've tried pulling the battery and sim - no luck.
Unfortunately my location means I can't send it back for repair with it costing $$$s and taking over a month.
Only had the phone a couple of months - not very happy.
There seems to be a lot of people writing about this exact issue on the HTC forums so I can only assume it is indeed a hardware fault in a batch of the HD7s rather than a software issue.

my phone screen got broken by accident ,and i got the screen from on-line and send it to a local (not htc) mobile repair shop . he disassembled it and re assembled it and then after reassembling the WiFi started to work , i asked him how he said the WiFi connectors might have gotten loose while phone has dropped and while reassembling he might have connected them properly again ,i lot lucky

it might be that you need a new back piece

so would you sugest taking the phone apart

samsung S7 Freezing

Hi
I am Sure the Title of this Thread was Mentioned Quite a lot. but bare with me .
I have Tried the Search Option and Didn't find a Thread that addresses the Problem that I Have.
I have a Samsung S7 " SM-G930FD " that Keeps Freezing.
it Only Freezes when the Phone is Locked and Not Used.Never freezes while Being Used or when the Screen is On.Always Happens when the Screen is Off.
I tried to Disable the Always on Feature, Removed the SD Card, Changed the SIM card, Changed the Service Provider, Kept it Updated and even Clearing the Cash wouldn't Solve the Issue.it Just Freezes Regardless and without any noticeable Reason.Some times it is a week between Freezing and some times it freezes multiple Times a day.
only can be Recovered with a Hard restart.
I Tried to Use it on Safe mode , rest it to Factory, Soft Reset and Hard Reset.
wiped the date and Did any Suggestion that I could Find on the Internet. Sadly most of the topics only cover how to Restart your Frozen phone.and Never Found a Single Hint about what to do about this Issue.
the Device is Currently on Android 7.0 , baseband Version G930FXXu1DQIL .
I really Wish I can get any Help.
thanks a lot.
