Please help with phone that won't boot

Hi all, I have been running Jellytime on my DHD for a long while. It has been running 4.2 R11 for a few months perfectly.

The other day It crashed when I tried to take a photo. Rebooted and it was fine. Did it again today and when I rebooted it just stuck at the Jellytime loading screen and wouldn't go any further.

So, here is what I have tried so far :

1. Remove SD card and boot - same

2. Boot into clockwork and install update.zip from SD card - same

3. Format new SD card, put update.zip on it, wipe Cache and Dalvik cache and reinstall update.zip from fresh SD card. It now says update ok and I reboot - However, a window appears that says "Android is ugrading - Optimising Apps" - when it has finished (96 of them) it goes to another window that says "Android is upgrading - Starting Apps" and just hangs there with the circle going around.

Any ideas on what I should do next please ??
[Desire HD Android Development] howasparty:
For me it has always been the data partition. It gets corrupt sometimes for no apparent reason. That's why I regularly do a nandroid backup.
[Desire HD Android Development] snowy2012:
I don't have a nandroid backup - any ideas what I should do please if it is the data partition ? :)
[Desire HD Android Development] howasparty:
You might try a dirty installation by just reflashing the rom, but I am not shure if you will get back something of your old data
[Desire HD Android Development] snowy2012:
I'm not really worried about any old data as I have backed up all the photos from the original SD card and everything else is in the google account. Should I just do a "factory restore" ?
[Desire HD Android Development] howasparty:
If you don't have any scripts or other modifications in system partition then the best would be to restart with a clean install. Wipe everything except sd and reflash rom.

Hit thanks ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] snowy2012:
No scripts or mods but what option do I select to do this please ???
[Desire HD Android Development] howasparty:
Well in 4ext recovery select the wipe menu and then "wipe all partition (except sdcard)". In other recoveries I don't know exactly how it's called. You might also use a script (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1310354). But a factory reset should work too. So for the most easy and fast solution, do a factory reset and then flash the rom again, and everything should be fine.

latest updates

May I ask is there going to be any updates after beta 6 version? There have been issues with data connections and frequent FC. Hope to hear it here.
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
I would doubt if they're where going to be any more updates to 4.2 or 4.3. All the development work is now with 4.4.
[Desire HD Android Development] GeigerS:
RB and Musta are both actively working on KitKat 4.4 and have started new threads for each of their builds. It's unlikely they will continue work on 4.3 as their time is really fully involved with 4.4 now. As for 4.2 there really are no more changes coming from CM so not much to update there other than maybe a few minor tweaks with the custom ROMs, but again time being limited...

Here are the links to the threads for the 4.4:

Guys, I'm still on 4.2.2

I found out on the taktiK 4.4 rom (from randomblame), that installing Hangouts it was possible to receive/send MMS... On 4.2.2 with the stock message app I can't. I tried to use hangouts, but unfortunately I still can't send/receive MMS. Any clue to fix that?

How to solve GPS problem in this ROM? Kindly help me :good:
[Desire HD Android Development] stolla:
Same question....how to fix GPS problem
[Desire HD Android Development] GeigerS:
If you get at least one satellite you can try the faster GPS fix: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1252011

If you get no satellites at all, then you probably need to change your radio - radio thread is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=877295

If those options do not work then it could be hardware. The GPS receiver is located behind the LED light panel and has two contact points that sit on springs. Over time the springs can move off center or lose contact, or they made just need to be cleaned. You can CAREFULLY open the panel with a long tool through the battery port. Search the forums for more info. This would be a last resort if the other two options do not prove useful.
[Desire HD Android Development] onesolo:
So, basically that "trick" only works on the 4.4 rom, right?

So, there is no way to have MMS on 4.2 rom, right? I guess I'll have to way for a more stable version from the kitkat rom.

Why are you trying the 4.3 betas when 4.4 is nearly stable. Expect randomblame's next 4.4 release to be a great one.
[Desire HD Android Development] tandeejay:
Hi,

I think I've found a bug in Jellytime 4.2.2 R11.

If I go to Settings/Display/Brightness, and have the automatic brightness check box selected, when I touch the adjust button, a message pops up saying "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped."* Then when I touch OK, it goes straight back to the main settings screen.
[Desire HD Android Development] MidnightJava:
Is there a reason you don't want to upgrade to taktiK? It's pretty stable, and I assume RB will be focussing his attention for bug fixes there and not on JT.
[Desire HD Android Development] chrisb906:
Beta 5 bootloops and aosp KB force closes. Along with unfortunately flashing on and off screen.
[Desire HD Android Development] tandeejay:
Is tictaK more stable than JT?

The issue I have with the auto brightness is only minor, and I can't go to a less stable ROM

I've been using JT for a month and only had one freeze. Would have said no issues this morning, but my phone froze 5 minutes ago and I couldn't answer a call. Had to pull the battery.
[Desire HD Android Development] MidnightJava:
I think taktiK is close to, if not as stable, as R11. I use it for my daily driver, and I don't adopt a ROM unless I think I can use it without trouble, because I don't have much time for swapping ROMs and restoring apps, etc. My main uses are GPS/Navigation, phone, email, gmail, web, facebook, SMS, Kindle, and a few other apps.

Some people are reporting FCs, but a lot of those (but not all) are fixed by installing a different version of gapps (happened to me). There is a lag when scrolling some apps. Some people report data connection drops spontaneously, and comes back when they turn it off and on. I've seen a few reports of SMS/MMS troubles, but SMS is working fine for me. I had a very slow link when I did wifi tethering, but no one else reported that, I believe. I think that about sums it up, but I may be forgetting some. I think R2 is likely to surpass JT/R11 in stability and issues. Maybe take a look at reports when that comes out and see if you want to give it a try.

I'm going back to 4.3 or 4.2 too, I can't live without flash. Is the 4.3 beta 6 stable, or is it better to use 4.2 R11 which seems very stable ? I prefer have a 4.3 rom, is there a stable one including cyanogen or others, or 4.2 will remain the best ?
[Desire HD Android Development] avemt1:
Actually, I've switched to CGM 11. Its stable with a great camera and flash, torch, etc. Look for my most recent posts or mustavalska's cgm 11 thread.

I've see it too, but it seems not daily for now, because wifi not very stable, ts (:confused:) not working, and MMS too :(

I prefer an old rom fonctionnal, and I've reinstall 4.2.2 R11 because 4.3 beta 6 is no more available, and it's really smooth, so for now I'll keep this one, but I'll keep an eye on 4.4 rom to get one once it'll be stable, because I've see we can use flash player in 4.4 roms :)

jellytime R11: not able to get incoming calls/to change radio

DHD

hi, i've this issue since some days: my dhd can everythings, but receiving incoming calls, it answer like switched off. but i can call everybody.

if i put my sim card into another device, it get able to receive incoming calls.

i'm not able to change the radio, even though the bootloader says ok.

could you suggest me any good radio, and tell me why - at the device info - i always see: 12.69a.60.29u_26.17.14.11_m?

i've been trying to flash more than 5 different radios, but it always appear as the before row.
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
You're on the latest radio. To downgrade I think you need to be S-OFF.

What do you mean switched off, the phone turns off or the the call hangs up?
[Desire HD Android Development] The-Undertaker:
When anybody call me, my device results off for them,just like when i turn it off. But the phone is on, and i can do everythings whit it, i can also make any call i want. Vodafone operator says i haven't got any lock, in fact my SIM can get incoming calls if i put it into a different device.

Isn't the s-off enclosed with the root?
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
Are you roaming by any chance?

Root doesn't necessarily mean S-OFF. Check in the bootloader if you are Ship / Eng S-OFF or S-ON.
[Desire HD Android Development] The-Undertaker:
Not roaming.

ACE PVT ENG S-OFF it's the first row on the bootloader
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
You should be able to downgrade your radio.

Not sure why you can't receive calls though. Can you get a logcat the next time it happens. Install CatLog from the Play Store.
[Desire HD Android Development] The-Undertaker:
some news: I've been having a try again with downgrading the radio, but it failed again, even though the bootloader said ok. I tried to change it with Radio 12.69.60.29_26.17.14.11_M , but i still see the 12.69a.60.

Strange is that every time i flash the radio, the dhd can receive incoming calls again, but only for 1 or 2 minutes after rebooting. over those two minutes, it "locks" incoming calls again, as i explained before.
[Desire HD Android Development] The-Undertaker:
logcat
[Desire HD Android Development] The-Undertaker:
any suggestion please? i'm loosing all my friends call.
[Desire HD Android Development] rjand:
Try installing a stock RUU ROM and make sure everything is working in that first - it may be a ROM issue rather than a radio issue.

Also full wipe, don't restore anything for testing purposes.
[Desire HD Android Development] The-Undertaker:
Found a solution on the web:

- remove the sim card and reboot without the sim/sd cover

- reboot into recovery and reboot

- plug the sim and the cover

- reboot

it's since 1 hour my dhd can get incoming calls again.
[Desire HD Android Development] The-Undertaker:

Cannot properly boot JELLYTIME for DHD/Inspire4g - 4.2.2 R11 any more

My phone completely froze (it would not turn on on Power button press with battery fully charged) and I had to take out the battery. After that it did a normal boot and it stopped somewhere before it comes to PIN login screen. I`ve been waiting at least 5 minutes!

I messed around some stuff, like deleting caches. This did not help.

Next try was to backup using ext4 recovery and just a try to delete /data and factory reset.

This helped, but of course I'd have to reconfigure all stuff.

So I tried restoring /data from backup, which led back to the described problem.

BTW: I often experienced after a reboot that touch screnn won't work and I could not enter my PIN code. I then needed to reboot, sometimes a couple of times.

How do I find out what stuff under /data backup is causing this problem?:eek:
[Desire HD Android Development] the_maker:
I lost ground here in DHD (again after 2-3 years :) ) looking for a rom for my friends phone... From my experience, this situation can only be fixed by fully wiping your SD card, and the flashing a stock RUU... Completely stock.. The latest one is a good choice.. Then, just reflash recovery, and then the rom..

It will get second life, that i can be sure of :)
[Desire HD Android Development] pat99:
Understandable

[MENTION=1264810]Ferrosti[/MENTION]

Sir,first of all calm down!

Take a deep breadth, and follow this:

-I've tried 4.2.2 R11 and I had no issue with the one you've mention,but anyways try to wipe data+cache+dalvic+baytery stat.

Then fresh install 4.2.2 R11 it should not cause any problem imo.

-Try disable PIN login screen either boot phone without insrrting sim card or disable PIN entry somewhere in settings.I've tried to look at where is that but couldn't find option to diable it but if you cant find then boot without sim card.

-Take out SD card and connect to pc and check for bad sectors or errors in that sd card.

-Once installation completes all you have to do is take out memory* and sim card* (*if you want so) and let your device boot normally.

IMO it should boot without any problem.

Thanks.
[Desire HD Android Development] Ferrosti:
Well, I completely wiped everything yesterday afternoon (even the screen ;/ ) and reinstalled 4.2.2 R11. I did it more than 24 hours ago now and I stopped crying since a few minutes due to my lost data. :eek:

I'll fully reconfigure everything and do what I am supposed to do: ****ING BACKUP :cool:

I experience, that after the reinstall 4.2.2 is way faster than before, except for GPS fix. Seems like I need to find the app again which sets the nearest time server (NTP). This helped the last time.

Within 'waze' menus open much faster than before and input lag is almost gone. I did not have any Touch Screen issues when booting after reinstall.

False alarm, alas this did not fix my MMS problems, they were only working cause I was connected to Wifi :(

I have since found that if I turn off my mobile data before sending an MMS, the MMS will send. But if I try with mobile data on it is stuck on "Sending". If a MMS gets stuck on sending, the mobile data trick will not work again until I reboot my phone.

I have tried soooo many things to fix this MMS its driving me nuts! I've stuffed with my APN setting extensively, however the data off trick works with default APN settings, so that does not seem to be the problem. I'm using Optus AU carrier settings (TPG sim card)

I have seen a couple of replacement mms.apk files, but I have not been able to get them to work.

This is the only thing not working for me on this fantastic rom. I know it shouldn't bother me as much as it does but I wish I could find a fix... :(

I've been searching for a solution to MMS problems for some time. There does not seem to be a fix as such, but there is a work around.

Here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=36511884&postcount=14

As far as I can tell the reason is that ASOP roms do not have an option for WAP 2.0 (which is what Optus use) only IPv4 & IPv6.

Essentially you remove "mms" from the "type" in the MMS APN. Then you can actually select the MMS APN. Now you need to manually swap APNs whenever you want to use DATA or MMS. Annoying, but it works for me anyway...

Hi again - I've gave my old DHD to my girlfriend about a year ago but the USB connector was in poor shape and after a week or so it refused to keep charging.

A few days ago I decided to get it fixed as I reckon it's still a pretty reasonable phone and dropped it off at a repair shop. They replaced the connector but just can't get the phone started at all.

I vaguely remember reading here somewhere that the DHD won't either charge or start on the charger with a totally flat battery with this ROM .... did a search but couldn't find anything.

If it's true, how do I get the phone going again? Some combination of button presses ... ?
[Desire HD Android Development] MidnightJava:
Maybe something like this will work for you:

http://www.amazon.com/eForCity-Batt...051916&sr=1-7&keywords=htc+inspire+4g+charger

It's a wall charger for the battery. Hopefully you can get it fully charged and then insert it into the phone. I bought one of these with two slightly larger-capacity batteries for $16, and I'm happy with it. This package includes just one regular battery, and it's around $7. Look for other battery combinations if you're interested. I don't know if this will fix your problem, but it may be worth a try. Also, have you tried starting it up in bootloader mode?
