[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
OK. I'm assuming you have an AT&T Aria. If not let me know.

Here's what I'd suggest you do. I'm basically trying the most extreme steps to correct the issue so we can verify if the issue is something that can be corrected or not.

1) Reformat your SD card(s) with SD Formatter 3.1. This tool sometimes fixes hard to detect problems that aren't corrected when formatting with other methods. (Default settings are fine.)

2) Run the AT&T 2.2.2 RUU to revert your phone to almost 100% stock. I say almost because the RUU will NOT change your HBOOT, which means even after doing this process, you will still have S-OFF.

3) Try using the phone with the stock unmodified ROM to see if you experience the random reboots you described. If you do, the rest of the steps are not necessary and it's probably a hardware issue.

4) Install CWM by putting your phone into FASTBOOT mode, then using the Android Flasher utility to install the latest version of Clockworkmod. Use this version: http://www.mediafire.com/?lg6b63aqpi1cvbg (source). If you know how to do this from command line with the fastboot command line tool, that is fine too.

5) Boot into CWM. Do factory reset/wipe data and format system partition. Then install the ROM of your choice. I'd suggest something like a recent version of CM7 since it is very stable. If using CM7, install 20110828 gapps immediately after flashing CM7. Reboot and see how it goes.

Even if you already downloaded any of the above files, delete them and download them again this time around (or check the md5 sums if you know how). It's possible the files were corrupted when you downloaded them before and that is why you keep having problems.

Also, as an aside: Are you using third-party batteries with your devices?

Aria random reboot

Thanks drumist for all you advice! When I did my last attempt at a clean install, I used a spare SD card that had never been in the phone.

Both phones are AT&T Arias with the original batteries. I liked the Aria size so much that I upgraded my wife's expired Iphone contract when AT&T was providing a free Aria upgrade just to have a spare in case I damaged one by rooting. Now I have managed to mess up both phones!

I was thinking my next step would be to go back to a stock state, as you recommend. I was thinking of going even further and un-rooting and S-On. Do you think the problem could be in the Hboot partition? And wouldn't going back to S-on replace the Hboot?

I still think I somehow contaminated the 2nd phone by restoring a Nandriod backup from the first phone. The 2nd phone was working find until I did the restore.

Regardless, I will try what you suggest and let you know the results.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
Reverting the HBOOT to stock (and yes, returning to S-ON) has some risk -- i.e., if you make a mistake during the process, you can permanently brick the device, so I wouldn't recommend that except as a last resort. The RUU will reflash every other partition on your phone back to stock besides the HBOOT and is safe to do, so stick with that.

Yeah, it's possible. If that is the case, though, the HBOOT wouldn't be the problem (because Nandroid backups do not touch the HBOOT). The RUU will reflash every partition that Nandroid touches.

If you already tried using a different SD card, then I wouldn't worry about using that SD Formatter tool.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
Can't find a copy of the AT&T 2.2.2 RUU. They took it off the HTC website. The instructions there are for an OTA update, which I can't do since I'm not running the stock rom.

---------- Post added at 02:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:12 PM ----------

Never mind. I found a copy of the RUU on my laptop.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
I have installed the hboot drivers and the phone shows up as a device on my computer, but the RUU says it can't find my phone. I am running Windows 7, if that makes any difference.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
Got the RUU to load from an XP machine. Bad news is that the phone still randomly reboots.

I guess the only other step is to un-root and S-On. What have I got to lose. Can't use the phones as they are now.

Got a good way to do this?
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
Did the whole thing -- un-rooted and S-On. The phone still random reboots.

Got to get another phone. 2 Arias available -- one rooted one not, both randomly reboot.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
The only thing left are the SIM card(s). Have you tried booting the two devices without any SIM card inserted?
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
Yes, I tried it without an SD card. Sure is baffling. Sometimes the phone will run for several hours and other times just a minute. And it only happened on the 2nd phone after I swapped SD cards to transfer the Nandroid backup.

Maybe it damaged the phone's internal memory.

Again, thanks for all your help.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
I said SIM card, not SD card, but either way...

Maybe it's a faulty SD card that has caused physical damage to the phone? i.e., it shorted pins that weren't supposed to be shorted and burnt out something on the mainboard or something? Of course it's only speculation, but it seems like it's a hardware problem. And hardware problems don't just migrate from one phone to another unless something external to both devices is causing the problem.

If I was you, I'd probably stop using that SD card in any other device just in case it's the culprit. SD cards are pretty cheap these days -- definitely cheaper than having to replace another phone. Also to be on the safe side, I'd go get a brand new SIM card from the carrier -- even if you aren't having any issues -- just for peace of mind.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
Misread your question, although I had tried it without the SIM card too. I also re-rooted/s-off'd, but no luck. At least I'm now an expert in rooting/un-rooting.

Thanks again!
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
One other thought. After un-rooting, loading stock ATT rom, and re-rooting and loading CM7.2, I noticed when logging into Wifi at work that the phone had remembered multiple Wifi settings! Where is this info stored? It maybe a clue to something else to wipe and possible sole my rebooting problem.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
If you enable Google's backup features (Settings > Privacy > "Back up my data"), Google will sync your wifi passwords to their servers. Personally I'm surprised no one else thinks that it is wrong for Google to do that, but whatever. I always disable it.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loleary:
Any Progress?

Hey,

I just stumbled across this thread and am having what seems to be the exact same problem. My issue seemed to start back in March and has not improved.

I had two Aria phones. One stock and one running CM7.1. They both developed the random reboot issue. I have restored them to stock and they still randomly reboot. With and without SIM or SD card.

I finally broke down and purchased a new HTC Aria which arrived yesterday. Stock... with Android 2.1 just like it came from AT&T back in 2010. And, sure enough, random reboots!

I have no clue what is causing this. I have contacted HTC and they suggest that I get a replacement for the new phone to see what "happens" and if the random reboots occur on the "replacement" of the replacement, I can send it to them under warranty but they did caution that the issue might be the cell network. Changes in the network could result in hardware incompatibilities that would require firmware updates which they are not planning on providing. To test that theory though, the phone would have to be used in an area where another Aria phone is successfully being used.

I talked to AT&T and they claim there have been no hardware upgrades or changes in my area in the past three months. However, I know this not to be true seeing that I have an LTE device which just recently started functioning in LTE mode.

Bottom line, I am at a loss for what could be wrong. I find drumist's idea of the SD card causing hardware damage to the phone to be interesting. That is one consistency here. I too have used the original SD card in all three devices as I moved data around (backup/restore/roms). The thought of an SD card damaging a device seems scary.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
I am waiting for one of my Arias that is being repaired by HTC under warranty and will let you know how it works. I definitely will use a new SD card!
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
Just got the phone back from HTC repair today. I only put the battery in it to test, no SIM or SD cards. It still randomly reboots! 3 times in less than 1 hour.

I called HTC and they are having me send it back again. The HTC agent said he was surprised since they have had very few repair requests for the Ariia. Since the reboot problem is random, he said the repair office may have just turned it on for few minutes, checked it out and didn't find anything wrong.

I told him that I have 2 Arias that have the same problem and gave him my conjecture that I may have transmitted the problem to the 2nd phone by using the same SIM and SD card. He said he would add that information to the repair order.

I have since gotten new SIM and SD cards. Frustrating problem. Wouldn't bother if I didn't like this little phone so much.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drumist:
Have you tried taking the phones physically to another place (miles away) just to verify that it's not some sort of weird RF interference issue?

Also one other thing that I figure might be connected is the charger you're using. Are you/were you using the same charger for both phones?
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
I have recently used the Aria during a weekend at a town Maryland, which is about 90 miles from here (southeast Pennsylvania). Same issue.

Regarding chargers, I use a stock HTC charger at home and a cheap car charger. I had been using these chargers for more that a year before the problem started. And I use them for other devices, such as my wife's iPhone, with no problem.

I sent the Aria back to HTC today for a 2nd try. If anyone wants to experiment, I will ship you my other Aria. Of course I would like it back. I am sure HTC will figure it out someday. And my other Aria is still under warranty too. I am just letting HTC work on one at a time.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sketchman16:
Any updates?
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loleary:
Aria is dead in my market

I thought I posted an update but looking back, I somehow didn't. For my issue, after going through many Arias--brand new--all doing the random reboot at home and not elsewhere, AT&T finally saw that the radio firmware on the phone (the specific spec version of HSPA+) was not compatible with the updates they were pushing to local towers. What this means is that the radio will randomly crash resulting in the phone rebooting. HTC stated that this was an AT&T problem and that AT&T was responsible for updating the firmware to be compatible with their equipment. AT&T said that their device report for my area should less then 1% hit meaning they weren't going to patch/update the firmware and recommended a new phone.

Additionally, I know of two other people in the area that are experiencing the same issue but just thought they had broken their phone and went out and purchased a new one.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yar2:
All my Aria reboot problems were solved with a new sim card. And I have no idea why.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dansou901:
I have this problem too, but I'm in Germany using congstar.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dansou901:
Also getting a new SIM isn't free for me, it costs 10 €.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NinetyWt:
Thank you ever so much for chasing this rabbit to ground. My phone had been randomly rebooting over the last couple of days until today, finally, it is just stuck in a never-ending boot loop. Your post has saved me a lot of fruitless hours of work, I think.

BTW, I tried a new SIM card and that did not fix it.
[HTC Rezound] poppajules:
OK, so here's the deal, I am running SetCPU and I noticed the other day while watching it, the min jumps to the max value constantly.

i.e. - my max is set to 1026, my min is set to 540, and intermittently, the min value will change on the reported value to 1026, maxing the cpu, and then return to 540. No rhyme or reason as to when it changes.

This could obviously be an issue with SetCPU, but this is really the only way I know to monitor CPU speeds, specifically. I had QuickClock Advanced, but it isn't compatible. I've heard bad things about Antutu, and I don't like the interface anyway.

Any ideas on ideas or ways to prevent the frequencies from jumping like this?
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
use conservative. no issues with antutu but I'm surprised you don't have freezing with frequencies under 1188
[HTC Rezound] poppajules:
No freezing... I do use conservative, but the min value is actually changing, not just the reported frequency jumping. the reported jumps BECAUSE the min value changes.... It's confusing. If I can get a video, I'll post it.

(This is for hboot 1.5, thanks for pointing that out reaper24)

Okay so a major ROADBLOCK I run into when relocking my bootloader is having custom roms and recovery images installed while attempting to "fastboot oem lock" (thus resulting in the "***security warning***" which for some reason locks your phone). Okay now there are two ways you can get out of this.

1. You can "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_token.bin" (with your unlock token in the same directory of course)

NOW THE REAL REASON FOR THIS POST:

In order to do the HTC Hboot Downgrade process, a part of this is being COMPLETELY STOCK, recovery included. For linux/mac users, RUUs cant be run, therefore, you have to find an alternative method. So, in the attachments I have included the stock recovery, download it, extract it to your desktop and transfer it to the root of your SDcard. Now use joeykrim's Flash Image GUI app to flash the recovery and vuala, you now have stock recovery.

To test (if you are on stock ROM)

Optional: download 2.08 rooted Rom

1. Flash 2.08

2. GO to settings>system updates and choose HTC software update

3. There should be a message about the 2.08 update needed

4. Download it

5. Run it

6. IF your recovery flash was successful, the 2.08 update should work and you should not get an error message in recovery (which is what you would get on a custom recovery)

If this is in the wrong forum section, I apologize and have no issues with it being moved
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
What hboot are you going off of? If you have the ruu exe and you relock your phone as soon as it relocks it wipes the old recovery works on hboot 1.5 your back to stock . All you need to do is run the ruu your set. :D

If you are already S off you shouldn't have any issues downgrading things :D

Anyway good instructions :D

Hi ppl

as the title says what do you think?

I have to decide in the next 2 weeks if i go to a Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman or a ZTE Blade.

This will be a company phone, so my secondary one, i will still keep my X8 :D

I checked and Sony already release ics for live so at least it does not suffer of the same "problems" that x8 about official updates (at least for now).

If i check ZTE Blade i think that really one thing that let me think about for a second is the 3.5' display but looking at camera, processor and ram i think Live will be like a Adrenaline Boost for my X8, and i'm already used to the 3.2' display.

And you, what do you say/suggest?

On this list i can add ZTE Tania (Windows 7.5), Samsung Galaxy Mini and ZTE V 875.
