Sick & tired of phone restarting

I have tried everything on my wife's phone.
First I rooted didn't work
Tried the paper to push the battery down
Then tried numerous sense rooms didn't work
Then tried s off didn't work
Tried newest firmware didn't work
Matched latest radio with til didn't work
Tried cm9 stable didn't work
I just witnessed the phone restart 4 times without even touching it while on the charger fully charged. I'm tired of stressing about this pos.
What will fix the phone. Please help

I have 3.33 firmware with radio and til matching boot 1.27.1100
On cm9.1 stable which I just flashed a couple days ago but was fine until today. I didn't restore any apps and wiped everything
Thanks

Is it restart even if no app in stalled ?

Well that would be hard to consider cuz there would still be system apps installed I did see dsp manager running even though it was never opened so o deleted that
I also reflashed the firmware to see if that would help

Try an RUU

Well the phone first came with gb and was never rooted and then received the ota update which is when problems started happening as I know so did many other people.
So that's when I decided to root it
The only other option I think of at this point is if it keeps happening to just go back to gb.
Does anyone know if there will be a jb update for this phone?

I'm not aware of an official JB update from HTC but I'm using an AOSP JB ROM currently and there are some problems.you have to follow the proper process for your phone.
Flash an RUU
S-OFF the phone
Install custom recovery
Root the phone
Install ROM of your choice
In the process, please don't forget to follow documented processes for each step to the letter or you'll definitely run into problems. Post back here if you get stuck and we'll definitely help you.

Its a problem with the phones motherboard. I called HTC and told them what was happening and the tech on the phone told me to send it in and they would replace my mother board under warranty. He confirmed that they have been receiving many calls with the same problem and there was a defect with the mother board.
So either send it in for warranty or try pulling the contact pins out a little bit and jamming some paper by the battery to give it better contact. That seems to work for me.

I appreciate the feedback but so far for some reason after reflashing the 3.33 firmware package the phone has not acted up since hopefully it doesn't happen again

in my experience reboot problem is what happen to many sensation user with custom rom u can see that on roms or kernel topics .
for me using the brick kernel with sense rome and bruce cm10 is very stable 1 restart per 2-3 days or one week

Well my problem I believe started when updating to ICS completely stock never rooted. I rooted the pH one thinking that it would solve the problem. I don't remember if the phone ever restarted on GB .
Sent from my GT-P3110 using xda app-developers app

Since being on cm10 I haven't seen a restart. The T-Mobile my device app tells u the last time it restarts and so far so good for the past 3 or 4 days. I just think ICS was crap for these phones

Spoke too soon restarts but seems to only restart now while charging in the middle of the night and not everyday which is an improvment

Well an update not that really anyone cares just for reference I guess.
Finally flashed back to a GB ROM cm7 actually and what do u know all problems have disappeared. No more rebooting. So guess I'm stuck with GB until next device

As you're device is S-OFF, you can use the appropriate RUU for your device that will flash Android 2.3 on your phone. You can download the appropriate RUU from HERE. (If you could tell us more about your device, like run the command: "fastboot getvar all" from the command prompt on your PC and post the outcome here, we could help you finding the proper RUU for your phone.) If you want to try custom roms like cm10-11 or the latest Viper rom, you must update your firmware and hboot. The latest firmware for the Sensation is v3.33 and the latest hboot is v1.27. If I remember well.

Broken WiFi / Bluetooth / Roms won't boot.

Hi, I've searched for an answer to this but I can't find it. My fiance's one xl is seriously playing up. Some background: it's on hboot 1.09 and s-on. She's been using Viper since we rooted it.
A couple months back (possibly after moving to JB) her Wi-Fi was unable to find networks, or when it could find them it was unable to connect to networks. Ok so she dealt with that. Recently I thought I'd flash a different ROM to see if it would make a difference, so we flashed a recent version of AOKP (build 4). This booted fine but the WiFi just kept saying it was turning on but never actually turned on. So we thought we'd flash back to Viper. Full wipes were done while moving between ROMs by the way. Anyway viper just constantly bootloops no matter what we try now, so we can't use that. So we flashed back to AOKP and now neither Wi-Fi or Bluetooth work. Bluetooth at least turns on sometimes but it can't find other devices and other devices can't find it.
So yeah, no viper, no Bluetooth, no Wi-Fi, very frustrated fiance!
I've been reading the last couple days and just can't find what's wrong, does anyone have any idea? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like hboot 1.14? Did you use flash gui or adb to flash the viper boot image?

On ViperXL, boot.img should flash in AROMA, even with hboot 1.14. Although it doesn't always work, so if it bootloops, then OP should flash boot.img using fastboot or Flash Image GUI.
Agree, sounds like it can be a ROM-kernel mismatch.

That's what happened to me when I flashed to the new CM to take it for a test drive. When I flashed back to Viper I went straight to bootloop. Forgot to flash the boot image. Aroma usually works for me but it has problems when going from aokp to sense.

I'm pretty sure it's not 1.14, it was one of the earliest models released way back nearly a year ago.
Any ideas on the Wi-Fi / Bluetooth situation guys?

Ok I can confirm its definitely on hboot 1.09

I'd try dirty flash the rom.zip for the booted ROM a couple times in recovery, to see if something isn't sticking right. I've had that happen on a couple kernel changes in CM.

I'll try that. I've managed to get her Bluetooth working by flashing King Kang ROM. Now it's just the Wi-Fi that won't work, but I'll try that thanks for the suggestion, I'll report back.

I am also facing the same problems my wifi , Bluetooth and mobile network are not turning on... i have tried all, factory reset, ruu flashing, new custom rom flashing , kernel flashing... please help:crying:

Ok so now Bluetooth is working fine and Wi-Fi turns on but it can't detect any networks. Basically all I did was another full wipe and flashed King Kang. Does anybody have any ideas on how to get the Wi-Fi working properly please?

Wow so I've done pretty much everything I can to get this phone working ok. S-off, RUU: phone still bootloops when booting Sense ROMs, even the RUU bootlooped. Sometimes it makes it into the ROM after several loops but it just crashes and starts all over again. Phone boots aosp ROMs perfectly fine, but WiFi and Bluetooth don't work still. I'm at a complete loss.

sounds like a hardware issue to me.

Yeah it sure does. What's got me stumped is the fact that it boots aosp fine and runs fine apart from Bluetooth and WiFi. But sense ROMs loop like crazy, but sometimes boot into the OS before looping again. Eh I dunno.

Hey Exad, I wonder if this might be a kernel issue. We tried booting the latest CM10.1 and it's having the same boot problems. So maybe it's a 3.4 kernel issue, what are your thoughts?
Sent from my EVITA using xda premium

Its unlikely.. you're on the latest hboot right?
I mean.. If it was an issue with the 3.4 kernel, I imagine issues would be way more widespread.
It would be possible to have issues with a 3.4 kernel on an older hboot.. but otherwise I just don't see how.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

Yeah we RUU'd her phone to 3.18 so it's fully up to date. The thing that made me think kernel/boot.img was that every non 3.4 aosp ROM runs ok, apart from Bluetooth and WiFi. Which I guess is a hardware issue.
I thought maybe there's something within 3.4 kernel that won't let the phone operate properly with that specific hardware problem. But something within <3.4 kernels that lets the phone operate, just without Bluetooth and WiFi working.

Yes, THAT theory is possible though no software will have things running 100%. I'm sure you knew that already.

I'm on 2.5.0.0, and I've used versions 2.4.x before that, and I've had no problems. I switched over from Hatka (sense) to Carbon (AOSP) yesterday with no issues. 2.5.0.0 has been out for a few months now, so you think they'd have patched it by now if there were widespread problems. Just curious why I've had none. S-Off?

Luck? Certainly not because of S-OFF. Wiping gave me errors every time in TWRP 2.4.x didn't bother trying 2.5 since 2.3.3.1 works just fine.

TWRP versions later then 2.3.X will not work with CleanROM 6.5, known issue.
I can confirm that CR6.5 does not work with TWRP 2.5.0.0.

[Kernel] Elementalx issues

If anyone is having trouble with the later versions of elementalx I have found that v5.4 has no issues. I don't know what the problem is but anything above that has not worked for me on any sense based ROM. I am on 1.09 hboot and s-on. Currently I am running the miui v5 3.5.3 as my daily driver despite the MMS problem, soon to be fixed on the next update, hopefully

I have never been able to flash any elemental kernel. I've tried every one, on multiple roms, tried messing with all of the settings...each time the phone starts rebooting itself within a few minutes of boot. I must just have some strange hardware. Bulletproof kernels work great.

The bulletproof kernels are a solid choice.
I also remember 5.4 as being a particularly stable release.

I was on 5.4 for about 2 months and then recently upgraded to 6.6 and no problems to speak of.
What do you mean 'does not work for you'? What happens when you install it? I'm assuming you are flashing the boot.img since you are S-On.

I've tried both 6.6 and 6.7 and haven't had any issues.

The problem I'm having is I get a popup message constantly(android.process.com has stopped). As far as know I don't need to flash a boot.img considering I'm on hboot 1.09. Never had this with any other kernel whether it be aosp or sense based.

This only happens on later versions of elemental x? If you flash back to 5.4 does the process stop force closing?
Also, check the message...ls it com.android.process.acore or com.android.process.phone?

Yes flashing back to 5.4 fixes the fc issues. Sorry for the confusion on the message. I've been working long hours lately. It is the second one mentioned above. Is it possible that even though I'm on the earlier hboot that i still need to be s-off because of the newer versions of kernels? Thanks for your time looking in to this issue.

S-off would make no difference with kernels. It would make more sense for your hboot version is causing it. Hard to say for sure without testing though. You did check md5 prior to flashing right?

[Q] [Solved] signals not working in any AOSP Rom

AFTER much research and working i created this thread and hope u guys will help me to get signals in any of the AOSP rom..
i cannot get singals in any AOSP (cyanogenmod, carbon, PA, slimkat etc) Rom. it always gives me error com.android.phone has stopped working.
Things i tried
1) clear phone and message and other google related cache and clear date of there apps.
2) had seen somewhere, go *#*#4636#*#* and change from LTE/Gsm auto (RPL) to Gsm or wcdma only.
3) tried many firmware and RUUfiles (Link Ruu Asia , Direct Firmware link 2.18 from Xda , Which Karbonkat Recommanded
i also tried to relock my hboot and then install firmware which is in the karbonkat section.
but nothing work at all, please give me any solution

Sent from my HTC One XL using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

If you've tried many and none have worked then I don't see how anyone giving you a specific link is going to help. It's not like we've got some super secret RUU hidden away that's different from the rest. It's like I said a few days ago, you've tried about everything that you can try. If one RUU didn't help, then the rest won't either.
As a last ditch effort you could try something else though, it only applies to people that have used a specific recovery but it might work for you.
Code:
Flash CWM touch recovery
fastboot erase cache
Flash older non-touch CWM recovery
fastboot erase cache
Flash twrp 2.6 recovery
fastboot erase cache
Factory reset in TWRP 2.6 recovery
Then wipe everything and flash your ROM
Before you ask, I don't have links to the CWM recoveries, you'll have to do some searching yourself for that.
