ok, so i have this thing for a lil over a month now i think maybe more....
but i have noticed that no matter what Rom or Kernel, even Stock.
if im in an area where i lose signal.....it may NEVER come back unless i reboot my phone. not a big deal in most cases but unless i look to check i may have no network for a couple hours before i notice that i have to reboot my phone. which means i get no calls and no text.
is there a fix for this or is this just something that i am experiencing??

that is strange that it does not auto-reconnect. my suggestion would be to try a different modem than the one that you have been using, if you have not already tried all 3. find them here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1173704
both odin and cwm flashable versions. maybe you'll have better luck with signal with a different modem, so that your signal doesn't drop completely at all.
on my SD card i have had all three modems for a while now that i had been flashing to see which one i would stick with. but my phone has been doing this since day one. on any rom or kernel or modem. i just wanted to know has anyone else seen this or is this just specific to my phone........
at that point i would be looking to get another one.

you may not have to reboot - have you tried just toggling airplane mode on and then back off? that restores data when it goes out for a lot of people.
if you've tried that, and it doesn't work... not sure what to tell you, except to exchange the phone.
i rarely ever have a strong signal - usually worse than -100 dbm, especially at my house - but i've never had the problem you are describing.
hope you get it worked out. maybe contact at&t or samsung for support also, while you are on the stock ROM.
So far the airplane thing seems to work. so i will ride with that, it doesnt seem to happen but once a day or so......so if i can just do that then i will just deal.
thanks for the idea bruh.

As of a few days ago, my inspire has learned a new trick.
but before I explain what is going on, heres the situation im in.
Ive Been running Icecoldsandwich for about a month now with some random UI/hot reboots here and there which is to be expected, no big deal.
however as of about 3 days ago, my inspire started to fully reboot from the white HTC screen, Werid, but **** happens so i ignored it.
Now it is doing this about every half hour,no matter what, i dont even have to touch the damn thing and it does this. Im Beginning to think its a hardware issue.
Heres what Ive tried so far
-battery pull (nothing)
-was using BLN which uses more power in standby so i upped voltages a bit (nothing)
-disabled BLN (nothing)
-disabled/enabled start up tweaks (getting desperate)
- restored an old backup of black ice which never had this issue ( STILL REBOOTED WTFF)
-some other stuff that i cant remember
Now i have an PD98IMG.zip on my sd card which was made when i originally rooted my phone and am about to restore that, but I have a feeling that wont help.
The only thing i can think of is that its a hardware issue, because after restoring that backup this issue shouldve disappeared and Im really at my wits end. SO before i throw the damn thing across the room and smash it, can anyone PLEASE help me out.
Im not new to the whole rooting game so dont treat me like a noob, ive been messing with this phone for a while now and this is the first time ive had an issue like this, which seriously appeared out of nowhere for no reason. Ive been on Ice cold sandwich for over a month now and this just started.
Thanks for any help/advice, If anyone has encountered this issue please contact me
PS: sorry to make a thread about this but ive searched both inspire &desire hd forums and came up empty handed.
You didn't mention anything about your micro sd card. Will it boot without the card inserted or using a different card freshly formatted? Corrupt cards or cards that are almost full can cause hair pulling issues.
Hmmmmm. That's a very good point you bring up there. My cards got over a gig left on it but hasn't been formatted since I rooted the phone.
I suppose I'll try that though since im out of options.
since I had to make it a "goldcard" will there be anything I need to do after I format it to make it work correctly?

Also, it does boot without an SD card, I'll see if it turns off with it out
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
Does not matter if it is a gold card. Will not affect anything. If your phone does not reboot with the card out then most likely it is going bad, has corrupt files, has apps or widgets moved to it that really should have been left on the phone. Or you used a backup app to restore system files that may be causing issues.
If having the card out allows your phone to run without reboots I would format that card, wipe that phone, reinstall a ROM and start clean and fresh.
This behavior could also be caused by a bad battery. Are you still using the original? A lot of them were pretty crappy.
well It still reboots with no sd card in it so I suppose it isn't that.
As for the battery, it is the original and that would make a lot of sense cause I leave it on the charger a lot.
my sister has the same phone so ill have to swap batteries and see if that makes a difference
thanks for the advice guys, I'm months from an upgrade so I really need to get to the bottom of this.

If it does turn out to be the battery, I would recommend an Anker brand replacement. They are pretty good and cheaper than the Seidio ones.
well I can rule out the battery cause I switched them and it continues to reboot.
I'm beginning to think it's the radio because it doesn't seem to reboot in airplane mode and it seems to reboot more when I'm driving, perhaps when switching towers.
I'll experiment with a few different ones and see what I get
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
okay everyone well its been some time now & I am still dealing with the same BS.
It has recently come to my attention that im not the only one dealing with this problem so I want to refresh this thread & perhaps get some new advice & options.
heres where I stand:
ive tried everything from roms-radios-batteries - everything in between. adjusted voltages, & every single setting available.
What ive found so far is that this issue is almost definitely signal related, when in airplane mode my phone Does not reboot.
ive also been advised that removing the sim card stops the reboots as well.
ALSO, I turned off 3g/4G for a few hours with only 1 reboot.
however I feel that was due to a different reason cause normally my phone reboots at least once every hour if not more.
im losing my mind & am about to smash this POS if I cant figure something out.
Is it possible its ATT related?
Should I return to stock? (unroot) -(really wanna avoid that)
WTFF. please, someone help! im going nuts!
Again any advice would Def be appreciated, & if anyone else has this problem please chime in & state your position.
sorry for the long post, (trying to be thorough)
& Thanks in advance
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
Ive noticed since the day i bought it the phone. It happens maybe once every few days and i have to reset the phone. IVe tried taking out the sim card and re seating it to no avail.
Anyone else experience this? Is there a fix? Thx
Try pushing on parts of the back casing, just enough pressure to push the plastic inwards.
If you get a jump in reception consistently just do an RMA to get it fixed.
I had to exchange one of my HOXs because of this. Tried reflashing ROM, radio, even stock RUU to no avail. I say swap it out.
Does it matter that im over my 30 days? I sure hope they dont check to see if its been re-locked Yay, ill be without a phone for 4 days

AT&T didn't check a single one of mine, I don't know about Rogers. I don't know what the warranty laws are like in Canada but I would assume if it's a legitimate hardware issue they pretty much have to exchange it for you. I would try my suggestions first though.
Install a radio 1,88 or higher. Development thread. Should fix it. Did mine.
Hello everyone,
im new here,
I just bought Nexus S from some1,
it had a problem which later showed up.
The touchscreen works all by itself suddenly,
the left part of the screen is misbehaving, it starts touching on screen when its not.
it was on GB when i bought, then i updated it to ICS to see if the problem gets fixed but it gets more crazy, now updated to Jelly Bean, worked fine for a while, but now again its starting.
Any help will be appreciated
I think it is a problem with your touch screen hardware and not the android software. That being said, unless someone else has had the problem, no one can really help you.. Personally, since I've never heard of this problem, I'd recommend you get it repaired, even if it costs some $$. Hopefully someone else who has had the problem can help you out, but until then, best of luck!

Already tried all flashing. nothing helped.
but recently i did some wierd things with phone,
i burned my nexus s screen side, not actually burned it, but kept it to a distance from fire, just to heat it up,
i thought if there was any moisture that was causing the trouble might end up from burning,
after the phone cooled down, i placed battery and started phone..
wow amazing... it worked fine!!
but in the next step i inserted SIM card, i was going happy and was thinking "oh yes... saved the day!!!"
but boom, touchscreen started misbehaving again!!!!
i removed SIM card, but problem persists!!!
sad...
but i tried again,
removed battery and sim card,
burned phone again with more temperature as i was angry, wanted it to burn completely, but i guess i saved it.
now currently, without the SIM card, phone is working perfect as it was.
I dont know wat it has to do with the SIM card or burning
any1 knows wats its problem?? how can i use my SIM card with phone now???

now i don know which kernel was it, lost it,
can any body help me on this issue?
miracle happened
yo guyz i cant believe it... everything is fine now.. phone works with sim too... i guess burning did help... and gues wat.. that left part of screen which was not responding.. its fixed by netarchy kernel.. i m currently using GB 2.3.6 with netarchy kernel.. can any1 give me Jelly Bean ROm? i tried some JB ROM but status 7 error occurs.. need help

Problem is back... and i think i found wat is troubling, its the SIM card, when i insert SIM card it does troubles, but when i use airplane mode, everything gets better.
tried different SIM cards, but no change.
so guyz tell me possible fix of the SIM card?
noticed another problem,
phone takes a very long time to recharge
and when i plug the recharger, sometimes battery indicates 10% or more Additional battery suddenly
i don understand wat is the problem?
Battery? Recharger? or SIM Slot??
im getting crazy now!!
Finally Its Fixed without spending any money
it seems baseband was troubling... as it was something like this i9020A this A is meant for AT&T thus its preferred network was WCDMA (my network is only on GSM).. i saw a code to see my phone info.. *#*#4636#*#*
This code showed up a window where i saw a button called radio... i switched it off.. i thought it was meant for FM Radio lol.. but it actually turned off my Cellular network.. i turned it back on and then i saw that the problem was gone... i went to see baseband and now its I9020XXX .. that A is gone..
Issue is fixed but there is one thing i don't understand at all.. how did fixing radio band fixed the touch issue? I think this conflict was causing Operating System to go crazy, hardware was never at fault..it was all software confliction.. I'm very happy its fixed..
If some1 have the same issue go here
*#*#4636#*#* turn radio off then turn on again.. hope it helps..and if it doesn't then at least it helped me

I have a Nexus S and I have the exact same problem since last few days. I enabled "show touche" from the developer options to track the screen touch. Now I can clearly see that one column on the left side of the phone gets a random series of touches (in that one column only) from top to bottom. The issue I think is a HW issue, nothing to do with sim card, or ROM or anything related to SW. I have tried GB, ICS, JB and even "touch" version of the clockwork. It happens even in clockwork. It seems to me that I need to buy a Galaxy nexus unless someone knows of an easy way to fix this.
Same Problem
Hey man,
I got the same problem.
I tried so much things but it's absolutely a hardware problem, I found on the internet that there is some netarchy kernel modified by someone, but that's not up to date anymore. The kernel only works with a old version of android.
I update my android almost every month, it helps a bit but not much.
I am trying to learn all about building and modifying roms and kernels, but that is not that easy as I thought so that will take some time before I can publish a kernel for you.
Maybe if you can building kernels, try it by yourself?
Or google Nexus s unresponsive touchscreen, i found there some helpful answers. But they all not really up to date.):
I hope you'll find a way!
Sorry for my bad English​
Hi, for some reason my wife's U11 just decided to stop working - but only the sim and wifi. The no sim message shows and wifi won't turn on. I've reset network settings and have gone as far as a complete factory reset to no avail. It seems to me to be a hardware issue, so I'd like to know if there is anything else I might be able to try? I'm out of ideas, and if it truly is a hardware fault, then that kinda sucks, but oh well. It was a nice phone while it lasted...
I should add that bluetooth still works.

This is starting to get interesting. If you have any updates, please let us know.
I've managed to downgrade it now to Android 8.0. Same issue.
I don't want to believe that this is a hardware fault. But it really seems to be...
Maybe its the antenna? I don't know. MAybe I'm going to root it and flash a custom rom and Wifi repair app.
But It really think there's an hardware defect for now..

That's super interesting to me. Do you know when it happened to you? It really feels quite coincidental to have this happen to a few people.
It happened just 2-3 month ago. First I wasn't able to turn the phone on cause of the WLAN issue. Cause my phone space was locked I wasn't able to authorize myself cause of the disabled connection. After a few tries I put my Sim card inside the phone, and it connected and I could authorize and disable this memory lock. But afterwards it never worked again with my sim card. It seems like it wouldn't even recognize my Sim Card. No Pin question or symbol at the upper front of the display. Nothing. It's really werid and annoying, that something like this happens. I can't believe that it's hardware related.. How would it be possilbe that it's hardawrare related and whe have suddenly the same problems nearly the same time...
I should note that my wife has had her screen replaced before (she dropped the phone and it basically cracked all over). Have you replaced yours?
Yes I replaced mine too. But nevermind I had that issues before. My phone ran all well with cracked screen and one day I had that issues... So I changed my screen in the hope it would fix it.

I'm wondering if it will be a more widespread problem. I'm going to try and get in touch with HTC and see what they have to say. Will update if I hear back from them.
Okay, that would be great. But I don't have high expectations that they'll answer. Due to the fact that they have stopped there smartphone section for now and no more official updates and stuff like that.
But let's hope die at least...
I have exactly the same issue. It happened yesterday. It was just there, sitting on my desk, one minute it was working and I was checking my e-mail, the next one it was not. The phone now detects no SIM card and if I try to enable wi-fi it just hangs in "enabling" status for some time until it gives up and disables it again. I am not 100% sure, but I think I also had a short time in which wifi was no longer working and the SIM connection still was, I remember seeing the 4G logo and maybe I even browsed the internet for a short while. By the way, I have not replaced my screen. Now I know that I can probably spare myself the hassle of doing a hard reset.
It is really suspicious that this weird problem is happening to several people within a short time frame. It would be cool to hear if HTC has anything to say, but I am also not expecting anything from them now, especially for a phone which is out of warranty.
In case it can help, as the author reported, bluetooth still works and it is possible to connect the phone to the internet using bluetooth tethering on another phone (the good old M8 helped here ). This doesn't solve the issue, but is much better than nothing, most apps will work and it is easier to make a controlled migration to another phone.
Any news here?

I have the same issue with a U11+ bought in Germany (I know, other model but hey). I have tried using the other sim slot and using another (definitely working) sim. WiFi doesn't work either. My phone has no visible damage (not even scratches) and no parts were replaced. I can't remember it ever getting wet either. For me it stopped working on 2. of September.
Sorry guys. HTC were really slack at getting back to me, and unfortunately they want me to send the phone in to get it inspected. I know it's out of warranty and since my wife is well and truly into her Huawei P30, this phone is unfortunately going to just have to remain this way. Sorry for not having any better info.
The same issue I am facing now. No SIM CARD Detected and WiFi isn't connecting.
What things I have tried doing so far?
1.) Factory Reset - 3 times.
2.) TWRP Based RUU Restores ( 2 possible versions tried )
3.) Tried Restoring zip based restore
4.) Did a Full Internal + External SD Card Wipe and then flashed RUU.
5.) Restored stock ROM.
Nothing is working at all.
Now, Trying to do S-OFF but as the phone itself is not booting into a normal OS, I cannot install Sunshine app and proceed. Help needed, at least in getting the OS to work.
Thank You.

It seems there's no way without replacing hardware to fix it. But if we don't know what causes this error we cannot proceed.
I tried the same things as you did. Also unlocked bootloader. My device is starting but I cannot proceed to the main menue cause of no internet connection. I'd love to try a custom rom. That's the only thing missing.
Also if the phone is rooted there are WIFI Error fixing apps and check.
I have bought myself a OnePlus 7T pro MClaren edition and I'm really happy with it. But also I don't want to accept that the htc just died from nothing.
Same issue here, happend a few months ago and after a week the phone started working. Now again no SIM detected and wifi won't connect.
