Hello guys,
This issue(i say) has been going on for a while now. I hadn't faced this issue initially or even with my previous phones like Nexus 4 or Galaxy S2.
Now, whenever i flash a rom after doing a clean reset & wipes.
Initially on the first boot, after the OPO logo appears MY SCREEN GOES BLANK FOR A LONG TIME, i mean technically it should show the bootscreen of newly flashed rom, but it doesn't. And then logo or whatever bootscreen of newly flashed rom appears, after sometime of a blank screen. It isn't supposed to happen right? The black screen?
I tested it with many roms, same thing happens everytime. Even with TB when restore my apps & data (not system apps), the first boot takes a while (i knoe this happens), but there's a black blank screen all along.
Can anyone throw some light in this?
Any help would be appreciated
Regards

The first boot for any Android phone takes quite a long time, because it is building the cache. On phones like the Nexus 4 or Galaxy S2, it should display the boot animation. Maybe it doesn't on the OnePlus One? I haven't installed a ROM in a while.

I knoe that, thats what my doubt is about!
I dunno, but i don't think while flashing a new rom would make screen go totally blank for sometime, because technically it's not supposed to, it's supposed to show the boot anims always. But that's doesn't happen here.
Any more views? Experts?
Thanks

I'm not sure/when/where or how, but every time I reset my phone the 1st screen I see is a bios screen.
It says-
HTC Pocket BIOS v8.01
and then lists all the various things like CPU and memory.
I'm pretty sure it started appearing when I flashed one of the million roms I've tried over the last few weeks. I'm quite sure it wasn't there when I first got the phone.
Is there a way to turn this off?
It's from romeos roms. Search how you can change the boot screens.
You can easily change it back to the original splash screen by using THIS.

Excellent.
That made the job a lot easier.
Thanks for your help.
You're welcome!
Hi, I just recently rooted my phone and I am having a weird problem every couple of days the phone will reboot and just get stuck in a reboot loop, it wont go past the HTC splash screen I have to pull the battery out to get it to start normal. It seems to happen every 2 days or when I am doing something that I guess uses alot of memory like Netflix. Anyone got any ideas on how to fix it? I tried uninstalling all apps that are for rooted uses but still nothing. Even put the processor back to 1ghz.
Did you read the ARHD Q&A thread? You know, the one where this question should have been posted.

yes, if your question is concerning a specific ROM please use the respective Q&A thread. Random restarts can be any number of things. Typically they're either due to OC/UV or a bad battery. If you have another battery that you know is good, try it and see if that remedies the situation. Also make sure your kernel is not UV'ed.

Hi Guys,
Just got yesterday the 4.3.3 upgrade. After Downloading it my phone is not coming up anymore.
The Nexus 5 isn't rooted and haven't touched it more than normal use.
The nexus just stuck on the 4 colored bubbles. they just keep spinning but that's it.
I went into recovery mode wiped cache + data. ( usually it takes no more than 1 minute right?) the "wiping..." procces took a lot more longer than usualy. I did those wiping many times and they just taking a lot of time! maybe its a problem or maybe its like that I don't know. I just know when I had HTC ONE X the wiping command on recovery didn't took that much of time.
anyway I wiped 20 times and still the nexus wont boot up.
Can I do something or should I go into the lab?
I try to avoid going to the lab because I don't like the idea somebody will open my phone and change the parts. there is a chance they will just replace it to a new device?
if not,
is there something that I can do? the phone is not rooted and I want him to stay this way.
Thanks
Hi experts, my 4 months old HTC One E8 dual SIM reboots every minute by itself. It displays a lot of application stopped working errors too. If I remove Youtube, it stays for a while,(may be a day if I dont go to gallery or camera or dont connect to PC etc.)When it reboots, it comes to a particular state and I lose any recent data. The same thing if I reboot the phone manually while fast boot disabled. Even if it is booting back with all old data even if I manually delete all of them. Looks like it is restoring data from a particular backup. Neither the reset to factory default works, as t is showing a red exclamation mark and boots to the same old state with all old data. Tried to follow some threads online(including HTC Dev website) to get it rooted (with my few weeks familiarity with Android system!) but again , it shows that annoying red exclamation mark and boots to the same old state with all old data.
Really got stuck! Any comments would be much appreciated. Thanks a lot
android version is 4.4.2
location is Middle east
Have you tried to hard reset the device? You can do that either from the menu, or from bootloader mode (if you can't make it, send me a pm)
I faced that 5 months ago and i sent to HTC service. Just do it.

Thanks for the reply, yea, I have tried that too, again that red triangleappears and phone reboots with no changes at all. Cleared cache partition as well from the same bootloader menu.

I was a bit hesitant because it would take a couple of weeks to get it fixed by them. I had a chat their support people and could be due to a hardware issue as well. yea, like you said, I think thats the only possible way now.

yup. because i've searched and tried many way to fix that (from google and xda) but unsuccessfully.
I've just experienced a strange spontaneous reboot. I noticed my Nexus 5 was indicating 'optimizing application n of nn' exactly like what happens with an update. I thought - looks like it's decided to OTA to LMY48M. But no, after 'updating' all the apps it's still on LMY48I. What's going on? I can understand a spontaneous reboot but not one which goes through the process of updating the apps.

Same here
Well, I don't have a solution for you but it looks like I have the same problem. Mine has been doing the same as you describe for the past 2 or 3 days. In addition I get hard boot loops many times before it finally decides to boot up (accompanied by the apps updating like you describe). It continues to hard boot loop even if I kick it to the bootloader, at least it does a bunch of times and then suddenly stops and seems to work for a little while.
Just FYI I was able to just now initiate a factory reset from the settings menu. It seemed to be working for a while. It took a long time to erase phone but then booted and walked through initial setup. All was well and it was about halfway though restoring apps when it suddenly hard reset and began boot looping again. So I guess it's on to more difficult procedures now.

Sounds to me like your power button may be going out buddy

I guess time will tell. It was looping very fast though, too fast for just a stuck power button. That also doesn't account for the apps updating as if there was an android update when there was not. At least I don't think so. Button could be in it's way out even so.
To update the OP: I seem to have fixed it, at least so far. Since I was able to eventually get into the bootloader with enough stability to do something (by holding down vol/power, and trying a few times), I was able to to fastboot flash Cyanogen recovery. Rebooting to CM recovery I was able to wipe reset, adb push CM12 and gapps, install.... and try again. Since then I have been stable. I have gotten though a full restore of 70+ apps, and phone currently syncing. I've manually rebooted a few times and it seems ok for the moment. Just thought I'd let you know where I'm at.
