hey i have recently bought HD7 a brand new mobile .. it came with the latest windows 7.5 mango version 7740

bootloader 5.0.xxxx

i have a strange problem .. is that my mobile keeps restarting on it's own and in difference occasion.

- hard work (games, web surfing, whatsapp, etc..)

- phone call

- Idle

it's really annoying .. i have tried factory setting and Hard reset by holding the 2 volume keys and pressing the down volume once (tried it) and another time the up volume (tried it too) and nothing is fixed just keeps rebooting.

so i really need a help in this please :( thanks in advance.

If you bought it brand new does it still have warranty on it? This could be some issue that they would swap you a new unit for. Its worth a shot.

Hello,

To resolve your issue you must downgrade to Nodo version.

Hi everybody, just got the HTC Desire (gsm) with Froyo 2.2 and Im looking for a clean,stable,fast rom with long battery life. It will be primarily used for calls/corporate mail (notes) and a bit of browsing. Can you recommend something since I don't have the time to test all the roms to see what would fit.

Thanks a bunch.

GingerWally 1.5 - fits in Data++ partition so you have a lot more space for apps. No bloatware, you do not need ext partition and it does not support a2sd so the rom is super stable + some under the hood tweaks like edited script because of rosie restarts so no more restarts with this rom (you know when you do not have enough ram because you are multitasking and the sense interface restarts - thats because the priority is set low). For maximum stability this is the rom I will anytime suggest even over the stock rom!!
[Desire General] eXXon82:
I'm also using my Desire for business (and pleasure ofcourse. ;) ). Untill today I have been very happy with Runnymede AIO (CM7/r2 and "XADSD2X") but the last couple of days I have experienced lock-ups when receiving calls... and a lot of lag.

GingerWally sounds like the perfect ROM :) Thank you for your advice.

+ 1 on gingerwally, sadly on the other roms the camera performs a bit better, but i switch sd-s regularly, and sense features more business features than an aosp rom.

Its like the stock rooted gb, but with more space and with some optimizations. The only thing i really miss is the 3.0 lockscreen, the best business feature is when your phone doesn't answer itself from your pocket :D

As you say, the Droid 3 and Superoneclick methods don't work, and neither does z4root. I did have a look at the root procedure mentioned in post #1 of this thread but it's beyond my capabilities.

I just got hold of my nearly-new Defy+ this morning and I was looking forward to bringing it up to the same spec as my Defy. Without root, though, there's a lot I can't do (I've actually forgotten a lot of the things I need root for, but at a minimum SetVsel, 2ndinit and I think Clockworkmod recovery all need it :().

The phone says it's system version 45.0.1880.MB526.Retail.en.GB, build number is 4.5.1-134_DFP-188.

Anyone got any suggestions?

[Defy General] ejstubbs:
Tried factory reset several times, no joy. It's a new phone and I haven't put anything on it yet, still trying to root it. The version of the firmware on this phone seems to be immune to the zergrush exploit.

I've also tried flashing a few of the other 2.3.6 sbfs with no joy - in fact all I have now is a black screen. It's flashable using rsdlite, so not completely bricked, but the end result is always the same - no response to the power button (so no possibility now of doing a factor reset, either).

I'm planning to send it to the Motorola service agent and see what it somes back with.

Defy+ 2.3.6 Rooted!

On the 4th attempt rooting my Defy+ 2.3.6 worked! Initially I tried using DoomLoRD's rooting toolkit which said it was successful but didn't install the Superuser app, nor would su work. So then I tried SuperOneClick (v 2.3.2.0). Initially got messages saying the Adb server was out of date and the root failed. Deleted the usb driver package via the sdk and then reinstalled. Tried again - no good. Copied adb.exe, adbwinapi.dll and adbwinusbapi.dll from the sdk directory into Superoneclick adb directory. Tried again - failed. Then removed Droidexplorer (which I'd previously installed). Then reran SuperOneClick and it worked! Gave the same messages as DoomLoRD's kit from the 1st attempt but the Superuser app is there now and works. So thanks (& donation) to Shortfuse and DoomLoRD.
[Defy General] ejstubbs:
That sounds vaguely promising. Can you post the system version, kernel version and build number of your Defy+? I'd like to have some idea of whether it might work for mine, when it comes back from service.

Mouaahhaa, finally rooted the àç§è(' phone...

In fact you did the job, I just kept sat on ma a...

So I guess you might like to have some details, the phone is a Moto Defy+, none of the well known clicknwatch tools worked for me but yours, I tried doing things myself but had no time enough so tried yours, to see...

Running the script from Ubuntu 11.10

The phone is an MB526

Android 2.3.4

System v. 45.074.MB526.Retail.en.FR

Kernel v. 2.6.32.9-gbad50c3

Build # 4.5.1-134_DFP74

Root verified, updated to last su version, the phone is perfectly fast and operational.

The script didn't returned any error, things were done in a couple seconds, Maps had to be removed, the only interesting thing (or maybe not), it said "All done, you Xperia has been rooted (...)".

Verified, it's definitely a Defy+.

Thank you very much...

Please help..... can not root my defy+ i already done all steps, from latest superoneclick and doomlord v4, i also flashed my phone, i ended up in 2.3.6 same pls pls.help
[Defy General] ejstubbs:
There is no known/published exploit which will root 2.3.6 ROMs with version 7 in the CG39.smg image. Your ROM is one of those. There is also no known way to go back to the previous, rootable version of 2.3.6. This thread is the most active one where people are seeking a way round it.

If you really can't manage without root then one possible solution is to sell your phone and buy a second-hand one which is running CM7 or suchlike. A phone like that must have root because it's required in order to install the custom ROM. Then flash what you want on to it - being careful to avoid any of the latest unrootable 2.3.6 sbfs.

Otherwise you have two choices:

1) Pitch in and help find a solution, or

2) Wait for someone else to do it.

[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Hi guys, have 10 mins so decided to write up little explanation about batteries.

Main purpose of this thread is not "how to look after li-ion battery so it stays alive forever" but rather how to get best day to day performance without killing battery prematurely (before contract expires lol)

First of all, there is no such thing as battery conditioning or calibration with Li-Ion. When people say that, they refer to BATTERY STATS (software side) knowingly or unknowingly.

Second. Battery stats. Forget about clearing them every time you flash A ROM. ONLY do it if something is seriously wrong with battery reporting, you'll "feel" exactly when it's happening. Poor battery life is not caused just by bad stats normally, erratic and weird percentage reporting is. If you wipe stats every time you flash new ROM, it will take few full cycles to rebuild them during which you will experience poor battery life and blame the ROM obviously.

Third. Try to stick to FULL cycles as much as you can, 100%-0%-100%-0%. This helps to keep battery stats healthy.

Fourth. Discharging battery to 0% is NOT BAD! I repeat, it's not bad. That is until you start trying to discharge it completely by trying to start up the phone, or do not charge immediately (or within reasonable amount of time). Batteries are smart nowadays, and they shut down when they still have some charge left (surprise, surprise) so they don't get damaged.

This ^^^ works for any smartphone really, but keeping to full cycles help our Sensations especially, as it helps with touchscreen problems (see my or zmfl's threads).

All of the above are my findings, experimenting, searching net or discussing with other smartphone users, I have no hard data to prove it. So either believe it or don't, it's up to you. I know quite a few people who agree with the above.

If you find this useful i'd recommend making it sticky.

Any further questions will be answered to my best knowledge, and if i don't know something i'm sure fellow members will join in. I'll add more Q/A's to OP as they come.

Part 2

Bump charging.

Hmm, tough one. An odd battery will benefit from it, but most batteries wont. Bump charging will eventually damage battery and you'll be worse off in the end. Not recommended.

Battery percentage jumps up and down after reboot (Sensation specific)

Has been discussed A LOT here. There are plenty of explanations why it happens, I'm not sure if any of them correct, but the main thing is, just disregard it as it will catch up with correct % pretty soon by depleting faster/slower.
[HTC Sensation] likuku:
This is the best thread for battery IMO.
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
Thanks :)
[HTC Sensation] mzmo:
Thank you! Finally, a post on battery life that is actually factual.

Still not sure about the whole "Full discharge/charge" cycles, since Li-ions prefer partial charge, but regardless. Nice one ;)
