HTC M8 Reboots then freezes on verizon splash screen - Verizon HTC One (M8)

I have had this happen several times now. I will take my phone out of my pocket and see it frozen on the red verizon logo.
I finally figured out that if hold down the volume Up, Down, and Power buttons long enough that the phone will restart and then it works fine for another few days.
Anyone have a fix for this problem?

No one else is having this problem? I'm running S-off stock rom, with a couple additions like the HK audio.

As you've modified the phone, the only way to tell whether this is a hardware issue is to revert to complete stock and see if it persists.

[Q] sensation crashing during unlocking the screen

Hi there guys!
i just bought a htc sensation a month ago and make its s-off an flashed also a custom rom (senseless rom 1.2)
now my problem its, that the phone is rebooting sometimes, when i try to unlock the device from sleeping.
i push the power button, the phone doesn't react, so i push a second time. after pushing 2nd time, the display splash on and at the next moment off.
2 seconds later, i got the boot-splash of the device.
anyone had this problem already?
EDIT: this problem was coursed also before s-off, therefore i choose this section to disks about! =)
I'm having this problem as well. I have not rooted or s-off'd or anything else. Stock rom, most apps from the market. This started happening the other day when I installed an update to version 2.3.4. This is happening several times a day and is getting extremely annoying!!
hi,
i just followed this problem again.
i am using now the Beast Rom, and the phone has still this problem.
any ideas?

Try flashing ARHD 3.6.1 from Mike1986 very stable, good support and fully operational. way better than stock.

Defrag your micro sd card and fix file system errors. Uncheck enable fastboot and turn off your phone then turn it back on again. Lastly, try not to use "kill all" in task manager. Hope it help you guys.
Crashing as well
Same here with crashing.
During unlock, when using GPS. It's now several times a day. The device has become unfit for purpose. Will try the SD card trick.

[Q] sensation 4g randomly turning off and rebooting

Factory Reset, you messed something up in your rom most likely. If you are s-off'd I would recommend flashing another rom, or reflashing a the same rom.
Which ROM are you running?

im using ARHD, but im used many other rom and the samething keeps happening, i even got another sensation and its the samething
I too have run across this issue. I found if I use more than one Widget it happens. This is happening on the past two roms I have used.
COMPLETELY wipe your phone, flash a stable ROM you know that works, and then make a nandroid backup so this doesn't happen again. Normally I would suspect a faulty kernel, but if it's happening on every ROM idk what to say.

I am going to flash another rom , for testing purpose...while looking into it I fund this comment.....
Set CPU clock back to 1.2 GHz.... fi you don't want your CPU to be overclocked or you had boot-loop or random reboots ---
Not sure if this is the answer, but I'll try it, if it continues , and will report back
I've been running into this same issue, but it only happens in the middle of the night. The phone wakes me up with its little vibrate when rebooting over and over. The only way I can stop the rebooting is to unplug and plug the charging cable back in. Plus the phone gets really hot until I unplug it. Running the latest NRG rom with stock kernel.
This happens to me whenever I play music, and alternate between texting and surfing the web...stock rom...

I'm having the same problem now. Phone was fine then started rebooting. wiped and restored from backup of when it was fine and still reboots.
i have the same problem i installed the bad recovery awhile back when it forst came out now on the good one but i think it messed up the phone cause i have random reboots like crazy i have s-off and everything just since that day it started but the phone works perfect on the charger i got a s2 since then but would like to revive my old phone if possible

htc sensation wifi error

yes I have tried almost everything, like flashing custom roms or stock ruu almost everyday with different variations. flashing kernels, tweeks, so on and so on.
It works somehow and it disconnect itself after a while or totally stucks in "wireless is turning on". After it get online it makes couple of reboots and it gives "wireless is turning on" error again. I can use the phone for days but wireless never gets on.
The funny point is when wireless on and screen is locked and screen is off. When I attempt to click screen lock button, sometimes it never gives light but I can see that The screen is on and I can move the ring and do whatever i want but it is very hard to see actually. I have to put on light on to see the pictures but it doesnt happen when wifi is off or gives error.
and another funny point is I can swipe down upper bar when screen is locked. I can do bypass.
What the hell is going on my phone? no idea really
lol, i don't know a solution for the screen/wifi issue. but lockscreen pulldown status bar is a new feature of ICS, not a bypass
to make it easier to access your notifications
we have the same issue i even downgrade to GB but still the same problem did have the wifi issue when you did OTA ?

the problem has come after I updated my phone to ICS since february I guess. I have almost tried everything on everyday but still having issues. I am sure it is all about software problem, nothing is wrong with hardware

I think most of the people having same issues and problems but having no solution for that? it is just ridiculous.
Is there anybody out there that can help us please.

Hi,
Have a look at THIS THREAD
Particularly # 3 and Extra 1
I have this problem as well...whatever I do, I can't get wifi to work anymore...I reflashed firmware, tried several different roms, I followed the guide in the aforementioned post...nothing helps...it always says "Error" after some time.
Is there anybody who knows what to do?
Struggled with same problem for months...gave up
I had the same problem with my wi-fi and bluetooth. Both would get stuck on "turning on" mode and never come on. Everything else worked fine. I too flashed ROMS, Kernels, RUU's etc. to no avail. SO I GAVE UP. After 2 months without wifi i couldn't anymore so i called HTC, they asked for my S/N and IMEI and confirmed I was still under warranty, so I un-rooted, went back to S-ON, flashed the newest official T-Mobile RUU and shipped the phone away. I called today and they said the MOTHERBOARD was being replaced and I should have it back this week! Woot-Woot! Try giving HTC a call...worst thing that happens is they say NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY...but you won't find out till you give em a call...*shrug.
I have the same problem with the lock screen and wifi. Except for me the wifi is always on "Error". It doesn't say anything else it just says error. It started happening after a system update failed to install. An update would come up and reboot my phone to try and install it. So it would start up ext4 recovery and ext4 would do some stuff and then reboot again. After boot I was asked again if I wanted to install the update. I repeated this process a couple of times before deciding I had enough and deleted the update.
Wifi has been on Error ever since. Everything else works fine.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm on a HTC Sensation XE stock rom but HTC Dev unlocked and perm rooted.

find your firmware.zip,extract the boot.img from it,place it the file where adb is and then do the commands

Hi buddy.. I was having the same problem as you with the wifi error. Also my phone was restarting by itself. what I did was that I removed the SD card and left the phone without it. It worked for me. After that my wifi was working perfectly and no more restarts. I had a 8GB SD Card before, maybe with this new update this 8GB SDcard was too heavy for the phone. I running a 2GB SDcard now with no problems. Please let me know if it worked to you as well.. Good luck!!

I tried this, but it did not work. I'm not sure if my problem is a hardware failure or a software problem. 3 weeks after I got this phone, it got water damaged. Full of water! I took out the battery, letted it dry for some hours and turned it on. Everything worked! Only thing to see from the water, was the spot, that shows if it have got water, was 3/4 red. Everyting went good within a month or so. Then in feburary/march it stopped working (wifi). The same thing for Bluetooth. It's just writing "turns on" wifi or the bluetooth, and after 5-10 minutes it say "error"
Edit: The reason why I wonder about if it's a hardware/software failure is, I do not remember if it came within a install of an costum rom or it just happened out of now where
Any sugestions?

I had the same problem, this is how i fixed it : first flahs 4EXT recovery, not clockwork, then get the rom you want and a super wipe, go into recovery, turn smartflash on in tools. Superwipe, then let it reboot, turn smartflash on again, and flash the rom

Ignore this info. What you need to do is log into your router hub & change the wifi signal Ch from auto to say, number 4 or summat, guarantee that's your problem.

Since JB, keyboard and widgets don't load on reboot

I tried to find a answer but have been unsuccessful.
Since upgrading to JB whenever I reboot, my keyboard reverts to the stock keyboard and I have to go into settings to turn back on SwiftKey and then re select it.
Also on reboot, switch pro widget will not be loaded nor will audio manager profile switcher.
Any advice?

I recall having the same issue with JB at one point but I think after I RUU'd it stopped. I could be wrong, ofcourse. I know there's a bug with some settings switching back after reboot and I remember thinking this was part of that bug. But I was on Viper for a couple days a few days ago and don't remember it happening during that time.
I have the same issue. SwiftKey almost always is disabled on reboot and frequently overnight. Not sure if this is a glitch or some new memory management thing with the AT&T JB based ROM. Doesn't happen with my N7.
Running CR6.X - also happened with a ported ROM I flashed over the holidays.
Pretty annoying. Not really into RUUing at this time, since that has always been painful for me on other HTC phones. I have attempted clean flashes in an attempt to fix, with no luck.

Might, RUU up to 3.18/3.17, make sure your S-OFF and don't relock your bootloader. Report your findings.

There's a thread about S-OFF in the original android development section.
Ruu, is simple, download the exe and run it with your phone plugged in. Don't relock the bootloader.
An update,
I didnt RUU but I found out that if I power off and then powerback on it keeps the keyboard and widgets
I also had At&t send me a new device, but it had the same problem
the rep called HTC and they have never heard of this problem, but have no fixes, so that sucks
the end response was just dont restart the phone, power it off then back on

Power button

I go to charge my one x. Light doesn't come on. Have to hold power down for quite a bit to turn on . Kinda like u do when u soft reset. I was on cm11 nightly ,torched kernel also. Then I wiped system cache etc and installed back up. Then I factory reset the backup and the prob solved.... But now,its doing it again..went to power on one x and led light was off..then I had to hold power down for like 10 secs.what Would could cause this??if I want a fix,think I could just flash an ruu?

I have the same problem. I'm not sure if it's ROM related or whatever.
My posts aren't being placed in correct sections. But anyways...my one x did this this morn. I wonder why..maybe the motherboard?
chris
It isn't rom related. I deep wiped and flashed a ROM that I know that doesn't have this issue
chris
Mine does that when I let the battery drain until the phone turns off. Then when I plug it in I have to hold down the power button until the lights blink then stop blinking. Then let go and press powet again.
Only then will my phone turn on

This is a common fault across all 4.4 ROMs when you let the phone fully die, which you shouldn't do anyway because it's bad for the battery.

Mine does that even when its a 60 % or when its 90. Doesn't matter what % does it all the time

I uninstalled that modded twrp of jriors and just flashed the twrp 2.6.3. Idk for sure if that was the correct fix,but it seemed to work.

[CM 11][4.4] CyanogenMod 11 was the rom when the power button thing started...without the modded twrp...but i also flashed the wrong kernel. it was that zarboz 4.4... ...then the "power button" issues happened....so i did a full wipe....
then i flashed the modded twrp then that rom again..then i started having those "power button" issues again..
i once again did a full wipe and uninstalled that modded twrp..and that seemed like the "fix"
but i just decided to flash the kickdroidxl rom for a taste of sense again...
yep..i found the culprit. it is the modded twrp of jriors...i reflashed the twrp and its doing it again. lol
I'm not convinced that it's the recovery. There are hundreds of people using that recovery and you seem to be the only person having the problem.

well..it dont matter anyways..lol..i hit factory reset on recovery and i lost everything anways...trying to flash the ruu but cant do that either...ugh..oh well

I have also had the issues he's talking about that I didn't have prior to the recovery. in particular when I'm charging my phone and I power it down it looks like it shut down but to boot again I gotta hold power for 15 seconds (lights flash) boots
Not a major issue tho it's worth it to have kk roms I'm happy
