Howdy,
I noticed on my phone that my screen locker looked wierd so i soft reset the phone then played a game of madden and looked down at my phone and it was at the orange windows boot screen hung up at it. I soft rest again then it would flake out at the verizon splash screen i soft reset a bunch of times and still the same results. I yanked the battery and let it sit for an hour and still nothing i replaced the battery and nothing.
So i proceeded to go into bootloader and hooked it to pc and reflashed with the stock MR2 verizon rom and now its hung up on the white htc screen with the red writing at the bottom.
Only thing done to the phone was HArd-SPL a week or 2 ago with no rom flashes after was on the stock rom.
Ive searched the topic also and am thinking i might have to do a task 29?
ATM im going to try and flash the first stock VZW rom and see where that goes but likely same outcome.
so do i have a brick or is there a fancy way to get it working?
got it working with the MR1 update so im good

Hi folks,
I have some new problems but don`t know where they come from.
I have flashed the newest Version of the energy rom and everything was fine. One day my phone falls down and the battery and the cover get lose and the phone gets off. I put the battery in and powered on the phone but the phone stop at the boot screen. I`ve tried serveral thing like Reset, Hard Reset and again took out the battery for some minutes but still it hangs in the boot screen. So I transfered the flash on the SDcard and flashed the rom again. Everything worked great till 2 days later. I was searching something in opera and opera was very slow. I closed opera and tried to open it again but the whole phone freezed. So I reseted it and the phone started boot and showed the Energy Wallpaper and a small white box in the lower left side what is only shown when the phone is started the first time. But the phone freezed again at this point. After reseting the phone again ist hanged again in the boot screen. I flashed the phone again and right now it works fine but I don``t wanna flash my phone every two days.
Is it a hardware failiure caused of the drop or is it a failure of the rom?
maybe post this in the rom thread?
maybe something inside the phone broke when it fell ? This random freezes shouldn't occur. I used Energy Rom 3 for about a week and didn't experience any freezes what so ever.
here's an ideea. Flash a stock rom and see if the problems still persist and if so, you should see your warranty and get your phone fixed.
hope that helped.
you should flash a stock rom then switch bak to nrg and if that doesnt fix it then youll have to get a new phone sorry mate !
Hi folks,
just have to wait 2 weeks for my new Vario IV from T-Mobile. So I have to work 2 weeks with this geek original Rom what is really ugly and slow.
same problem happening to me, except i have not dropped my phone.
should my phone crash whilst using it and i have to soft reset or pull out the battery then the rom will instantly reinstall itself and require me to align the screen again. sometimes i have to hard reset for it to do this.
I have problem flashing my HTC Fuze with the new ROM - I was using EnergyROM 2.0 but failed to flash to 3.0. I am however able to flash it back to the ATT ROM without problem.
Tried from USB flashing and from the microSD card - nothing works at this time???
Not sure what the issue are at this time.
This Energy v3.0 standard is a poor rom for
htc touch diamond p3700
hard spl 1.24
radio 1.00.25.05
Bad points-
have had it on for 30 mins and phone heats up,taskmanager in top right gone and phone freeze,using 89% ram standard , 98%after use,slide lock not working properly after power off, battery draining fast eg down 6% in 5mins,sometimes stert menu doesnt work.
Good Points-
manila is smooth as silk,everything is very responsive,quick,good programs built in,
one rom that could be the best but not for the htc diamond p3700
will read all the posts for problems for fixes
its not true!!!!!!!!!
i am using the same rom,,, and it works perfectly

Best ROM ever tried.
My wife and I both have non-rooted TBs which started experiencing random reboots after the OTA. We went to the store and they ordered us two new ones. They'll be here Tuesday.
Yesterday my wife's TB rebooted, and got stuck at the HTC logo. She was unable to turn it off. I did a battery pull, and again, stuck at the HTC logo. I swapped my battery since hers was low, nothing. It's dead, Jim.
We called the store and they wouldn't swap it since one is already on order. My wife is a doctor, and being without a phone until Tuesday is not an option. So I loaned her mine. (Sigh).
I tried reflashing the latest signed ruu I got from another thread. I downloaded it onto my SD card, swapped cards, and I was able to hboot and the install seemed to go fine. However, it had no effect. It still gets stuck in the same spot.
Tried factory reset, recovery, nothing. Every time I reboot I get stuck at the logo and I need to pull the battery.
Out of curiosity more than anything else, any other things I can try?
Thanks.

Unfortunately, the only thing I would've suggested would be flashing the signed ruu.
You could try reverting to the pre-OTA firmware, but I'm not sure you'll be able to use ADB if you're stuck bootlooping. Check out the "NOT FOR ROOT USERS" section.

RIP poor TB
How long did you wait for the screen to clear?
Just curious because I know usually when I do any type of update or rom change, etc, since you normally wipe the data and cache, the boot up can take quite a long time on the initial boot up.
I know some people report as long as 10 minutes or so to get past the screen. I don't think mine ever took that long, but there have been times I think it's stuck and then a minute or so later, it gets past it.
Just my two cents.
This has happened to a few people already after the update. I don't know what is in this update but HTC screwed up majorly.
Sounds a lot like what happend to mine, but mine was rooted.

LOL, I welcome the breaks when I can't find my phone for the day.
you should just leave it on the htc logo until the battery dies or until it get wayy to hot.. just to see

What would that accomplish?
Yeah your lucky you got a guy to order your phone because I wouldn't have because even the new ones are rebooting, when you get it I would suggest postponing the update if it comes without the Mr1 update, as far as your wives phone yeah I would check out the forum uptop on going back to old software other than I have had a few people come into the store with same problem and couldn't do anything( mainly because I have no access to anything), but ship a replacement, oh and one suggestion is if you don't want your wife to borrow your phone your local store does have emergency stock Android loaners that you use until you get your replacement in, and then you just send your phone and the loaner back in the FedEx box so if you really need a phone you can do that.

I believe your random reboots are due to the new radio which is tied into the OTA. If you apply the OTA again your still going to have random reboots. I ever used the newer radios and have never had a random reboot.
Hey guys...
Kinda ultimate noob here, so I'll start from the beginning because I don't know what information could be pertinent. I don't really know much lingo at all, but I have a completely stock, unrooted HTC Inspire 4G from AT&T that my cousin gave me a few months ago. On and off since then, I've had a few random restarts and crashes, no big deal, always came back up. The other day,about a week ago, the headphone icon started blinking and my sound stopped working, so I restarted the phone and it got stuck on the ATT boot screen, so I took out the battery, let it sit, and when I put it back together, everything was fine. Last night, I was in a meeting and my phone battery was at 2%, so I turned it off so avoid it dying. I got home and plugged it in, and when I went to turn it on, it would not load past the ATT boot screen. I let it sit overnight, and a couple hours ago I tried a factory reset, and tried to boot up again, and it got stuck in what I believe is called a boot cycle, where it would go from the HTC startup screen to the ATT screen, go black, then repeat over and over. I did some research, and tried to use an RUU to set everything back to complete stock, but both of the ones I tried gave me the "Please get the correct RUU and try again" error. I have the 1.03.2011 RUU up right now, and it says that my image version is 3.20.502.52, and gives me that same error. I don't know if I completely effed it up or what, so any possible help would be greatly appreciated. I've been looking through guides and trying things for over 12 hours, but I can't get anything to work, so it would be best to start from the beginning. I tried to get everything I know about the problem in there, but if more information is needed, just let me know and I'll do my best to get it for you. I've heard great things about XDA and did most of my research here, so I'm hoping you can work some of your magic on my phone
Before I start I will say I am rooted and have tried multiple different ROMs to make sure that's no the problem. Starting last Saturday, my phone would randomly turn off. I never saw it turning off until today though. I just thought that somehow it had turned itself off in my pocket. However, today I caught it turning off. Right before it shut down, a logo of a gray battery with a USB cable going into it with an exclamation point in a triangle off to the side appeared. Then, when I tried to turn it on, the same symbol showed up and I couldn't even get to the LG logo. An hour later when I tried again, it booted up, no problem. At the time, I was running illusion rom with Rin kernel. After several other times of the phone turning off with the logo and not being able to turn it back on for a half of an hour, I decided to go back to my old backup of illusion to see if that was the problem. The random turn offs persisted. Worried, I flashed the latest cm12 nightly. Things were going great until just 20 minutes ago where the phone turned off accompanied by the symbol. Whaf does it mean? What should I do? Hopefully my phone's not broken cuz I don't think at&t of lg will accept a phone that's rooted and has seen multiple Roms.
update
Today the problem has persisted and the shut downs have occurred at exactly the same times as they did yesterday. I think I might have to use the "return to stock" stuff and send it to LG. I'm pretty sure this is an internal hardware issue since I have tried multiple different Roms without installing any apps and the problem persists. I am going to call LG now and see if they'll replace it. I've also tried a spare battery so that certainly isn't the problem. I'm confused. If anyone knows what to do, please share.
I would flash tool back to stock and start over. That really does fix a lot of weird problems. It has for me anyway.
Just tried reflashing stock. No success.... sending it in to LG next Tuesday since Monday is a Holiday and its still semi-functional so i'll use it during the weekend. Hopefully they wont charge me for it.
I have only had it for about 16 months now. It is a MetroPCS GS7 so it's a T-Mobile variant if that matters. Never been rooted or modified in a similar way. The same thing happened with my previous phone, a GS4 which never got fixed. I was just using a video downloader app when it suddenly restarted. It only shows the first screen for about 5 seconds then restarts. I have some experience using ODIN and flashing ROMs but I don't know what I should try with a GS7.
After a few tries to get it into recovery, this is what happened. The blue recovery message in the top left showed up but I didn't let go of the buttons this time. Then this rotating white circle showed up and said something like "applying system update". After about 20 seconds then I got a screen with the dead android and it said "no command" below it. Then I don't know what happened but then suddenly the recovery menu showed up. So I picked to just power off so it is just turned off now and no longer in a boot loop. I don't know what to do from here. I won't turn it back on until I get advice on what to do next.
If you just want to fix it without worrying about losing data, see if you can get it onto download mode and full a full stock flash with all 4 firmware files in Odin.
If anything is corrupt, Odin should give you an error message which might be enough of a clue as to where to look next.
OK so I flashed it once and it didn't work, it was still stuck. After that I just gave up on keeping anything and wiped all data. I flashed it a second time and it still got stuck, but after about 10 restarts it finally worked. However it is now on the T-Mobile firmware instead of the Metro PCS one and also I am having weird problems now. I would like to go back to the Metro PCS however I cannot find any firmware for a G930T other than T-Mobile. The problems I have experienced so far is the auto brightness does not work anymore, I have to manually set brightness even when it is switched on, the screen turns on for a few seconds when it's done charging now, and also I restarted my phone to fix an app and then it got stuck in a loop again. It took 10 restarts then worked again, but that is still a problem. I don't even know if I should still be wasting my time trying to fix this. I really don't want to buy a new phone right now but I also feel hopeless in fixing this one.
