Few desire problems

Hi,I managed to root my desire and now I just need to flash rom. But I cant get into recovery menu.I tryed with rom manager,tryed with power+ volume up. Both end up same : phone starts vibrating and just shows htc logo in white screen. Can any1 help me with this problem? Also, I downloaded Cpu tuner in hopes that my phone would stop rerstarting. But that dont seem to work...max - 998, min - 245. Maybe I should make max lower ? It restarts in apps. 10 min. max of any app/game and restart. While I watch movie it happens only 1 time in middle. Also when I'am charging it,it can restart even while I'm scrolling in menu.

Put the phone in refrigerator for only 5 minutes and then start the recovery. If it still restarts then flash your desired ROM while keeping the phone into refrigerator.

Well that sounds crazy but logical

Yeah its sound crazy but this is the solution right now for boot loop problem caused by increased temperature of mainboard.
Before executing the refrigerator trick, ensure that you don't have any software problem by factory resetting.

I've heard that and seems crazy but some say it works.

Recovery menu is second on the list. Use Vol +/- for up/down and Pwr button to select.

Yes,I know. But when I select recovery my phone just starts vibrating and shows just htc logo. I read somewhere that then you need to press power+vol up. Anyway that dont work for me Anyway. I have few q about radio. I want to install LeeDrOiD v2.5 and it needs some radio. I downloaded Radio 32.56.00.32U so I wanna ask how to install it and will I be able to use my phone for calling and texting? I mean maybe it changes something?

first hit volume down and then power button if u do vice versa phone will restart. simple

Ok fridge thing helped,I think I flashed DevNull rom, but now when I turn on phone it goes into white htc logo screen and after that black android screen. (words android flashing) is that ok? Should I keep him like that?

K,DevNull works. But not how I expected it to. Phone still restarts when I use almost any app or game. Maybe some1 have any idea why?

what about your recovery? it solved? the restart problem might be caused by over heating the mainboard.. Max of 998mhz is the normal clock of the snapdragon cpu and must not make any problem... if force close problems do Fix Permissions by recovery (if recovery is present, if not reply so I'll guide you through flashing of recovery process..)
Good Luck

Welcome to reboot problem. You are not alone having this problem, I am with you as well. Mainboard is the problem that's why I asked you to put your phone into refrigerator. If you have warranty then get it replaced.

He is right its a known issue for some desire models, the motherboard needs replacement. Here's a video:

[Q] How to do if HTC ONE X crashed.

Hi guys.
I'm ready to buy HTC ONE X on 3/20.
I've searched about the feature about HTC ONE X.
I found that HTC ONE X can't change the battery.
I'm using HTC Desire now with custom rom.
If my Desire crashed, the only way is drawing out the battery.
So, how to do if HTC ONE X crashed?
Will it have a security against that?
Moreover, will HTC ONE X have HDMI output just like Sensation XE?
Thanks

HTC sources said holding the power button for a certain amount of time will force shut down the device, we don't know if software coded or hardware

It should be hardware based for a very long pressed event.
Sent from my LT15i using XDA

for devices like these there are always hard reboot options a la iPod and iPhone with DFU and recovery mode and the hard reboot via holding power and home for x seconds.

I have a Xoom tablet and have loaded many custom roms, etc, and have been in a few boot loops and had a few crashes etc, the Xoom has a non-removable battery also and its never been an issue, you just use the specific key combination (on the Xoom power + vol up if I remember correctly...) and it restarts. This has never failed for me and much more convient that pulling the battery.

One V Dead!

Today morning while sending an SMS, my phone got hanged and auto-restarted.
It got hung on the boot screen.
Then when i tried to restart it again, it stopped responding.
Now I only get 6-7 vibrations when I try to start the phone and then nothing happens. Hard reset is not working either.
I had not rooted the phone.
Can anyone tell me what to do?

i know this may sound REALLY stupid and as i dont have my ONE V yet is just a stab in the dark....does it need charging at all??? or will it boot with the charger connected for about 15-20mins?

I tried that as well...
My battery was almost full before the phone died.
I put it on charging for almost and hour to see if it makes any difference. But it still wont start...

sounds like a service centre job

can u get into bootloader mode? if yes its just a soft brick u can solve it easily just flash any of the custom roms. or stock ruu
and your phone will be fine
did u rooted it?
and bfre this happened what did you do? tried changing fonts?

If, as you say, you didn't root it, then the software is probably not screwed up. Could very well be the hardware, in which case you'll have to have it repaired or replaced.
You've probably done this, but try holding the power button down for a really long time, until the buttons flash about 10 times. Then try different combinations of holding the power button plus holding the volume-down key to try getting into recovery.

he has not rooted his phone - no recovery, only bootloader.
he didn't said that he arrives at htc one logo. He cannot START his phone at all!
read again and read it good before posting stuff..
as per the problem, dude, if you put it to charge, you see the yellow led? it is turning on? if it does, then you still have hope. leave it recharged for 15-20 minutes and as you recharge it, press and hold volume button DOWN and power button, if this process goes ok you will see a white background with some text in it and a menu. this is called bootloader. if you can arrive here, you don't need to go to warranty with the device.

I tried charging it for half an hour, the led does not blink.
I am not able to enter recovery mode either. Tried pressing Volume down + Power and all possible combinations of volume and power button.
I dont know why I am not able to enter the bootloader.
I contacted HTC and they said I should give it to the service centre. Hoping that they repair it since its under warranty...

Try holding down volume and pressing power for more than 10 seconds. If it still doesn't boot into hboot you will have to take it to a service center.

Since you haven't flashed anything on to it or modified it, I'd say it's a hardware problem. Send it back for replacement.

:banghead: Please keep all question related threads in the Q&A section. Thank You.

No luck mate done that many times.. If I hold the UP Volume button.. the phone vibrates for 3-4 times and the orange LED flashes... No luck with DOWN Volume button with power Just phone switches off..

Hold volume down button and while holding it down then press the power button. Phone must be off for that to work.
Edit: Grant barker, you deserve a thanks just for taking your time to write all of that

I agree with ben hogin and Teichopsia.
1. Make sure the battery is charged enough.
2. Take the battery out and put it back in. This resets something. (Make sure the battery cover is secure too.)
3. Hold down the volume down key and then press the power key (while still holding down the volume down key).
4. (I usually do this with the phone usb disconnected. Not sure if it makes a difference.)
I'd also take out the SD Card just to eliminate some contact issue or something with that. When I'm desperate I try anything..

I did all those and I just went to the mobile store where I always buy phones ( kinda close ) so he said he has to do this ztag..

It´s jtag...anyway, to be bricked means that u can´t even turn the phone on. The question is how did u get to that state? have u installed anything or was just stock?
If you tried flashing something then the file could have been corrupted or maybe was not for your phone. That won´t brick your phone unless u flash a bootloader (included in RUU's) that is not for your device.
If you were stock, then the most common issue is a messed volume rocker, but could be something else related to hardware. :good:

My bets on volume rocker problems.

it happend to me as well try to use RUU its the only way.

possibly bricked using rom toolbox to change

So i installed the deodexed rom and went to change.fonts with rom toolbox
Phone boot looped a few times and couldnt get it into flash mode. Its now currently sitting with a grey screen cant do anything with it. Holding power + volume.up does nothing. Computer.not recognizing a phone being.plugged in. Maybe someone has an ideal to help. (Im new to sonys done lots of flashing with other phones though)
Ps its a rogers lt28i running ics locked bootloader
Will wait for it to die and see.if i can get into flash mode then this just wanted to post this as a warning aswell as maybe find other solutions

I thought I did the same but I held power and volume up for like 30 secs and it came back. Just be patient

just tried holding it for like 2 minutes and nothing .... still waiting for the thing to die... it was FULLY charged lol... this is so weird waiting for a phone to die to fix it...lol. I had a razr before this and letting it die was the last thing you wanted to do lmao .

Please follow my soft brick step in the General section. This has worked at least for 3 people so far, so I think it is a good start.

I will do doing that as soon as the battery dies lol.... its taking forever :S

No need to let the battery die.
Connect phone via USB cable to the PC.
Now simultaneously press the power + vol up .. till it vibrates once.
The moment it vibrates, press vol down, without releasing power button.
The phone should be in flash mode. now you can use the flash tool.
It worked for me.

thanks but that's not doing anything . I think I'm going to have to wait till it dies :S.. hopefulyy its dead by the morning lol... im getting tired of my Zombie droid razr lol
