Had the phone for over a fortnight not encountered this issue myself.
Have you tried removing any self-installed apps and seeing if this still occurs? Could be one of the apps causing the problem.
nope.. i didn't - but I only have "standard" apps.. so they just need to work.. otherwise i cannot use the phone..
I haven't had any random reboots yet, have had it for 4 days now. How often does it reboot?
I had it about once a week
Mine reboots a lot, but only when Im doing something. Just minutes ago when I was using the browser, and just before when playing some game. Also it stayed all night in some kind of rebooting state, had to unplug the battery.... Had also to remove an unlock app that I think it was causing constant reboots...
It has original os.

oh no... not again!
I went through 4 Desire HDs because of the reboot problem. You would think HTC would sort this on their newer devices. It was a well known problem in the past and recognised by HTC too.
This also affects Legend, Desire, Desire HD and now Desire S
I have my desire hd for three weeks and it rebooted only one time and that was caused by poor irc app. Perhaps you should first uninstall your crap apps before bashing htc?

are there any RUU files there that we can flash to have the phone s-off?
I have the same problem in my phone it restarts 3 times in the first day
really I am fried its general problem from HTC
pls anyone can advise me what I do
For me, HTC Sense have restarted maybe 5 times in the last 2 weeks. It is not a complete reboot, but some error in HTC Sense that requires a restart of the software. I have sent reports using HTC Tell and the error is an exception regarding some bitmap that does not fit in memory. I guess this will be fixed eventually.
We haven't got that issue ever, Maybe you can refresh your device with other customized ROM.
I've had this problem, seems to be with HTC Sense itself since it's not a complete reboot and it recovers fairly fast. All the more reason to root and flash Cyanogenmod when an exploit and build comes out, this is my first Android phone and I'm not really enjoying Sense at all.
I suspect it might have something to do with memory card access. I plugged it into my laptop through removable disk mode and got an error message, and noticed it crashed when I tried to launch gallery which obviously accesses the memory card to find pictures etc.
So far I've sorted out memory card errors and I've removed all Sense widgets from the home screen and I don't seem to have any problems anymore!
For me this seems to somehow relate to alarm / clock settings, usually reboots shortly after this...
I had a reset when I was talking for more than 5 minutes
I've noticed it seems to stop when I'm using one of my own wallpapers, not an HTC Sense one.

Try installing the ROM again, but DO NOT wipe data. this should keep all of your stuff intact, but a fresh install of most other things. Hope this helps.
Also, this should be in General, or posted on the thread for that ROM.
There is an ongoing issue with HTC Weather today on multiple ROM's, it appears to be on their end, not ours.
yeah thats what i was thinking .....but thanks for your info ...thats why i love this site
Yeah, I'm on a rooted stock ROM and I was having issues this morning as well.

still not working on sense 3, so dont know if its rom related as i only had 1 rom that did sense 3 weather lol
I have had the same problem only 3 times since I got my Inspire at the end of Feb. It only does it for a few hours and then it's back to normal. The first time it did it, it lasted 24 hours. Annoying as crap, but at least it doesn't do it often. BTW, I'm running a stock and unrooted Inspire.

I'm having problems with some of the widgets displaying on my home screens.
Some, but not all of them, have what I would describe as a static appearance covering part of the icon, usually in a bar across the width of the icon.
The issue affects different widgets at different times but would appear to only be ones added by the apps I've downloaded rather than the "stock" ones.
I'm hoping I'm not alone in this and that better still, someone knows how to sort it?

I had that too. On one widget. I simply rebooted my device, and it went away. Not come back since. Not totally sure what it is to be honest.

Yeah, I had the same. A reboot fixed it and not happened again.
Cheers guys will give that a go....
On another note, how are you finding the Sensation? I came from a rooted Desire so the leap doesn't seem quite as big as maybe I'd hoped, not too impressed with the "locally stored" navigation maps not being free as it was always publicised...
Apart from that I'm well impressed, as are my colleagues more importantly! ;-)

I am very impressed by the device. Looks amazing. I love the new screen, much better than the WVGA on the Desire HD. qHD is lovely. Missing the root though. Really hope there are some breakthroughs when more devs have the device.
Have same problem too. noticed it on the stock android power widget and also the facebook widget. I can only describe it like "bad tv reception". hoping it will clear up after a reboot. haven't noticed it with any of the htc widgets.
Just picked up Sensation today. So far loving it. this has been the only problem I've encountered so far.
From what I have read so far this issue is known and is believed to be a software issue. I have experienced this on a few non htc widgets. I tend to agree with the notion that it's because not all apps can keep up with the new qHD screen.
Agreed: Only 'major' issue for me as well

I've had my phone for a few days (luck to find a Walmart that sold it to me). I received "static lines" on my power widget. I rebooted this once, and all is well. It only affected that one widget. Reminds me of a video card going out on a computer (again just on the widget).
Oh, I also noticed that the voice recorder widget (from htc Hub) wouldn't turn on when I pressed the widget.
I'm having this static lines issue also. Do the guys from HTC know that? Hope it is gonna be fixed in the new firmware.
I'm having a serious issue with the widgets, worse than what I've seen described here. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it. It can affect almost all widgets at one time or perhaps just a few. Rebooting sometimes but by no means always helps, as does switching skins.
I expect it is indeed a software issue. I'm hoping an update with smooth things out a bit, but I sure as heck haven't heard of any updates any time soon for T-Mobile, S-OFF or otherwise.
I had this issue too. Where random widgets would show some static graphic corruption. But yesterday I got the OTA update and after that all these issues seems gone. So definitely a software issue.
I have now started to get this, I have found killing HTC sense removes this for a while but it then comes back....
Never had until now..and had for month or so now...
Could anyone with this issue please have a look at this thread and confirm that these are same problems?

Same problem - horizontal "rainbow" lines through widgets.
Can anyone else who got the OTA update confirm that it fixes this issue?

I had the same problem.the power widget,youtube widget and PowerAamp widget all have those horizontal rainbow lines.i just deleted them from the screen then added them back...that cleared the problem for me.
I actually noticed something very similar to this, but it was in Wordfeud. Across the bottom, where all your letters are, I had the same thing happening. I did a reset and it hasn't come back... as of now, anyways.

Ive always seen some black lines in the letters in wordfued... figured it was a compatability issue. The always go away as soon as I touch the screen..
Same problem here, it happens with 3rd party apps and also with with stock apps like google search bar or tips widget(it's random)
I hope that it will be fixed soon.
Had this twice, first time after Hub downloads second time just happened but the phone had like 80 RAM left. First time did a reset and never again touched the damn buggy Hub (didn't let me login again anyway). Second time a battery pull fixed it. Awful stuff.

EDIT 2: Okay! I got it. Here are the other apps I installed this morning that gave me the problems again but are not gone after I uninstalled them: Linpack and Quadrant. Please give feedback as to which apps I've uninstalled that you currently have on your phone.
EDIT: Never mind. It came back again. I'm still trying to find the culprit. I'll update you guys if I find anything.
I think I may know why we have this problem. I noticed this happen to me when I first started installing apps on my phone which I bought just 3 days ago. At first, I rebooted to get rid of it, but then it would come back as soon as I touched the screen, not even on an icon or widget. So I thought of the last app I installed and uninstall it. After rebooting, the problem was gone. I did a few tests and it seems to only happen with apps that require root access.
Can you guys confirm this for me?
So far my theory is working. I've tested with apps like ROM Manager, SetCPU, Root Explorer, etc. Right after I install, the problem appears. After uninstalling, I reboot and the problem is gone.
Hi,
my girlfriend got her Sensation this week and the phone got some strange graphic issues. They only appear on two of the homescreens and NOT in the lockscreen and NOT in other apps.
Please see the attachments for review. These lines change the position from time to time. The widgets used there are used by me too and i have no problems with them.
It seems to be a problem with the gpu i think. But it's very strange that these issues only appear on two homescreens.
What do you think? Do we have to send it back to T-Mobile to get a replacement?
Or is this a "known issue". Btw - The FOTA is not rolled out by ******* T-mobile.
Regards
Daniel
Try taking the battery out without turning the phone off first. Then put it back in and boot it back up. That fixed some nasty issues for my GF's brand new Samsung Exhibit.

Does this thread deals with the same issue?

Hmmm, a real reboot (disabled fastboot first...) helped...
Yea I just experienced this today and I've had my phone for about a month now... What apps does she have installed?... I'm think one of the recent app installations caused my issue

That's the problem many of us are having, especially with third-party widgets.
Someone here mentioned that the OTA update fixed the problem for them, but I haven't seen anyone else confirm this yet.
I have it recurring somewhat too. When it starts happening, often I can remove the widget and replace it and that will fix it. Sometimes I have to do a restart.
The interesting thing is that i use the "same" ROM as base on my Desire HD (Virt. Unity 1.27) and i have none of that...

its definately a software issue, and mostly related to 3rd party apps...this happens for me with; dictionary widget, current widget, and the stock connectivity widget
The widget in the pic is from HTC Hub
I got the widget from HTC Hub and it's powered by Google.
This happened to me and my buddy on our sensations this fixed it, havent had it since.
1.) Delete the widgets its happening too
2.) Disable Fast Boot
3.) Turn off phone and turn back on (not restart)
4.) Put widgets back
i am using Android Revolution HD 1.1.7, and i get this problem on -
BeyondPod
AudioManager
I had this problem on my stock rom and on the AR rom, it may be app related but not sure. What i am sure of is the problem is following me around
Same problem here on Android Revolution HD 1.1.7 (installed after Super Wipe). Deleting the widgets that caused trouble and adding them back seemed to cure the problem.
I am facing this issue since the first day, I took the device to HTC Care center, and after two days they informed me that the problem is not in the device. Those old widgets were designed for old resolution devices, and since our device has higher resolution with more advanced screen, then the widgets developers shall keep this in mind in their new widgets versions

Can we have a sticky? This is like the umpteenth thread about this issue.
I have the same issue, it is a sense issue, switched to any other launcher, spb or adw ex and there's no such a problem

NOT completely true, this happens to me with HTC's power control and google search widgets, and exclusively with those two widgets, removing and adding the widgets help but it comes back every once in a while, still don't know what triggers the issue though.
Today I tried both RCMIX and INSERTCOIN's 4.0.1 ROMs, and both of them ended up having the same issue after about an hour or two...
The issue is that the screen would shut down and the phone would lock as it should , but then when I hit the power button to unlock it, it would turn on as if it had been completely off (MAYBE IT WAS?). Please note: I did flash the radio that came with the RUU. Maybe that's the problem?
Has anyone else run into these issues with the ICS ROMs? If so, were you able to get past them?
RCMIX was jam packed loaded with my normal apps - IC was just what it came with for the whole time, so please don't say it was something I installed - I installed NOTHING.
After flashing back to gingerbread and my old radio the problem is gone.

lol, didn't mean to thank.
BUT since you flashed the latest radio, you're having issues BECAUSE of the latest radio. Flash back to an earlier radio, and you shouldn't have those rebooting issues.
it's the radio. if you flashed the newer radio without updated the hboot, then you're going to have issues. this is a known issue from the thread on the newer radio.

The Wallpaper that force closing is the lock screen, if you change to the weather lockscreen that will start FCing as well.
Unfortunately, I don't know of a way to fix it, only how to prevent it.

Hmmm I put GMAIL into the dock... I wonder if that will have any effect.
If it reboots I'll remove Gmail from the dock and see if that helps.

Aha, I put K9 and Handcent on the dock and it's been going mad since.
Just trying ARHD ICS now anyway so I won't put 3rd party apps on the dock for now.......
I kept the bottom dock stock and changed the lock screen to the weather screen and so far no issues.

Working great since doing away with the new radio ! Plan on trying the Revolution build later today but for now I made a good backup of the insertcoin build.
