So I have a modded HTC HD2, which will reboot by itself while Im running an app or on the internet browsing. Sometimes just randomly, I have had this current configuration on it since I got the phone. But this problem is happening more often now. Sometimes when it reboots I have to go through hell to get android to bootup again. Please direct me in the right direction to fix this, or if there is a better configuration of mods I could change to.
Android System 2.2.1 (FRG83) Nexus One
Chunky Rom
You need to google for froyostone sense V.3.2 that will work better

hello guys..
i bought a htc raphael on ebay for 175 euros... its got an xda brand from O2
i descided for the raphael cause its said to run android with xdandroid...
is it capable of running android 2.1?
and what features of the phone aren't supported yet?
It works...but
My experience with Android thus far on the Raphael (My US AT&T Fuze branded) is that it runs, and can make/receive phone calls, and use the internet just fine. However, text messaging has never worked for me, neither on 1.6 or 2.0.1 (the latest I have found to install)
If you're interested, it's definitely a cool toy to play with, but not something you'll be able to run full time. 2.0.1 often flakes out on me and fails to respond after a few minutes. Both 1.6 and 2.0.1 are very taxing on the Raphael, and go through the battery quickly and make it nice and warm.
http://connect-utb.com/index.php?option=com_rokdownloads&view=folder&Itemid=68&id=2:android-port has good packages that are built around HTC devices. Click through to Android Packages for 2.0.1, or scroll down to HTC Raphael (Old) for the more stabile but less fun 1.6 release.
If you have any questions, let us know. What's the HTC/Android outlook in Europe right now? I'd consider buying one next time I'm there but too many €'s for me to buy out of contract with my weak dollars.
Happy androiding!
I've been playing with 2.01 for a few days - no bluetooth, gps or camera...and it takes a lot of battery.
There is still a lot of work before we get a stable build, but you can try out the latest version.
I've Been using [ROM][30JAN10]Gen.Y PX-TP R0 with XDANDROID (Standard|Core), Its been great for me, the only problem is turning wifi off sometimes freezes and at times the d-pad doesn't work when loaded, but a simple reboot does the trick. My battery lasts for about 8hrs with wifi off so I must be lucky!
If you don't need Bluetooth/GPS/camera it's usable as an everyday device. You can expect 8-12 hours of battery with occasional use.
It will freeze every now and then and you'll have to reboot.
The battery acts very odd, android does not read it correctly, so your % will jump around a lot.
It's usable, but as you saw some people have some problems. Just make sure you read the first two pages of directions and do everything correctly and you shouldn't have too many problems.
Just for clarification: are you guys running Android as the only OS, or using the "boot off the SD card" method?
The links I provided are for builds you can run off the SD card, but which have to be booted using the "haret" utility from within WM.
This would be to run an Android OS rather than Windows, right? It's a full OS and not just an app which emulates Android? I think I read elsewhere that dual-booting is possible, so this wouldn't delete Windows and the issues you guys mention could be overcome by booting into Windows when necessary, right? Does it matter which ROM I'm using now before using this?
Thanks.
Struff: When I run the "Haret" bootloader, WM gets shut down and then a bit of linux code gets android running. It's not really "dual boot" as you would think of it, though. The bootloader is run from within Windows Mobile and then once it does its thing, the only OS running is android.
You must first boot WM, then get the bootloader, then android will be running. At that point, a quick soft reset (after telling android to shut down) means WM will start back up.
Clear as mud.
Hi, I recently purchased an HTC Desire with Telus in Ontario, Canada. Following a few days of regular service I got bored and decided to root the phone and install a custom mod. I am in no way blaming CyanogenMod for what has become of the phone, but it is nothing short of a frustrating nightmare these days.
The phone behaves extremely unstable, starting with random reboots, or inability to turn the screen back on following standby (having to pop the battery prior to powering the phone back on), down to constantly losing signal, inability to connect to WiFi, inability to send SMS messages. In fact, right this minute I am in dire need of sending an SMS and I am completely unable to get the phone to get a signal or send the message (the message either fails without telling me why, or gives me error 332). Aside from these problems, applications crash constantly, often simply unable to start-up.
I following the instructions in this wiki to the brim:
wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Full_Update_Guide_-_HTC_Desire
verifying versions (straight from the phone):
Baseband: 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2
Android: 2.2
Kernel: 2.6.34.5-cyanogenmod
Mod: CyanogenMod-6.0.1-Desire
Build: FRF91
I am at a complete loss here, and very frustrated. Any help or suggestions are HIGHLY appreciated...
I'll be the guy to make the 'obvious reply' since this forum seems to avoid making that sort of post =)
I'm a winmo user but from what I read, cyanogenmod android 2.2 with some modifications? Were you just bored of 2.1 and wanted to get to 2.2? Because there's an official update on the HTC site for that.
Otherwise, there is probably no setting or combination of settings that will act as a magic bullet and make the phone stable. If it's possible to overclock the phone you could try that, but even if that's an option it might make things worse. It sounds like strange advice since overclocking can also cause sleep of death and freezes, but I found my phone actually got more stable after. If you reach a point where you decide to get rid of cyanogen and flash a new rom, and there's some way to try OC first, you could give it a whirl.
Hi team,
hope you can help me...I just rooted my phone, did everything what was needed before flashing a custom rom.
I tried the Android Revolution HD 2.1 custom rom, and it worked fine, but once I made my first phone call, the process com.android.phone started to consume 100% of my CPU, the phone started to be hot, battery rapidly down etc. The only thing helped was the restart and not to make phone call. I searched in the different forums, I tried the USB debugging and also to clear calendar cache, but nothing...I flashed a different kernel as well (Leddroid) but no luck...still the same issue, 100% cpu usage after a phone call.
I decided to flash another custom rom, which was Leedroid 2.2.0...was hoping that it will fix the problem, but again...phone call and cpu on 100%...the strange thing is, that this time it did not do right after the first phone call, but 2 days later. Tried to disable all the synchs, usb debugging, calendar cache etc. but still got this problem
Anybody can help please? I would appreciate
Weird..
I've noticed my phone burning my leg while its in my pocket randomly when im not using it? Maybe a bug on HTC's behalf.Download fast reboot off the market and try using that to kill all the apps, its the best one ive used and normally stops it being so hot
Thank you, but it did not help...it actually kills everything, but as soon as I make the next phone call, the CPU gets back to 100% :-(
Anybody can help please...I installed a different kernel as well, but no luck...tried stock, Leedroid kernel and still got the 100% cpu issue.
Perhaps a full wipe can help. Make a Backup before.
Thanks MysthMob...I tried that one as well...used the SuperWipe from mike and from Leedroid as well...reinstalled the custom rom, everything worked fine till the first phone call...than it went up again to 100%
I was thinking of that it is caused by any 3rd party app...I have these installed:
Advanced task killer pro
Battery widget pro
Automatic bluetooth dongle pro
You dont need a task killer! Sense has one built in called Low Memory Killer
Good to know thank you...just removed, but the problem still persist...I am tired to reboot the phone all the time I make a phone call.
If you still have problems i would send it back for repair, Maybe it has a hardware fault
Do not think so...it was working fine with stock Rom...its just in custom Roms..but with all? I flashed back stock Rom and its working fine, but I want a custom one, I think I do not need to explain why
I will probably go back to the stock rom :-(
Mike is planing to release his 3.0.1 version, maybe he will include a fix...will wait till he posts it
The problem recently started appearing, whenever i go to the screen where friend stream widget is placed, when friend's stream tries to load the content (whether i have turned WiFi or mobile network off or not does not matters), it causes a crash in HTC Sense.
I have HTC Sensation and the software is fully up to date. I have not rooted the phone yet. Has anyone else experienced any similar issue
same problem, but mine started after i installed Supercharger V6
Possible Fix

Try this i figured out a fix for my reboot problem i hope this help you also good luck
and you are welcome
hi there,
i was having a same problem just like you. it's not only crash because of the friend stream, sometime HTC Peep also crashing, and restarting the HTC Sense non stop. All i can do is go to -> Setting -> Application -> Manage Application -> All -> Find 'HTC Sense' -> tap it and tap clear data. It back to normal again, but however some widget will disappear from your HTC sense, so you need to arrange the widget as you like..
hope it will help.
This phone has become a problem because one after another, things have stopped working on it. It's currently at the latest android release from AT&T 6.0, with the stock firmware. I did a factory reset this morning just to verify that it wasn't some of the things I have disabled, and it didn't change the way it worked (the auto brightness doesn't work at all anymore), and I'm having more and more problems with apps like the Geeni camera app that just don't work any more.
My question is, is there any upgrade path to a newer (10 or 11) version of android that might help me out? I'm basically ready to replace the device, but I've put a display on it recently and it's in otherwise good shape.
I'd like to know as well.
My wife's phone has been having issues with apps, camera lag, and browser slowing down, over heating etc. Android 6.0 maybe too old to run some apps, and probably more load on web browsing is causing the issues, but the specs are still on par, imho, with other phones that came years later in the game - 4G of ram and a great camera, good device storage for app loads. Hard to let go.
