[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venom18:
Hi Guys and Girls

Ive been without Service on my phone DHD now for 8 days. Originally my phone was working great, no issues bar the cracked screen that it came with over 2 years ago. 8 days ago i placed a call, chatted for a while and disconnected, as usual. 5 mins passed and i needed to make another call but my phone was showing an x over the signal strength meter in the notification bar. I called my carrier from my partners handset and asked what was going on and weve not been able to resolve any issues. Ive had a replacement sim sent to me which also doesnt work in the handset, but does work in my partners phone. Is there a known fault like this?

What ive done:

Called Tesco (MY Carrier) and had them run checks for any restrictions to the Sim or handset. Nothing placed by them, had replacement SIM sent to me which works in my partners handset but not my DHD

Had tesco check the IMEI for restrictions, none found

Checked signal Strength, 0

Checked my Lookout and theres seemingly nothing wrong there

Factory Data Reset

Checked APN settings, all correct

Checked the Status of the IMEI and IMSI numbers, both showing Active and working information, not blocked

Re-seated both the battery and SIM multiple Times

Tried the Sim in other working phones with Success

Cleaned and reseated the gold contacts under the battery cover and the sim cover

Tried 3 working SIMs but nothing in the handset

Entered Hboot mode, this is where it got interesting, Hboot screen shows *** LOCKED (00W) *** at the top, image below

Is this what is causing the issue? how do i resolve it?

Any help would be greatly Appreciated!

In addition, my phone was originally locked to the Orange network. Ive been out and bought an orange sim card and that doesn't work either, and wont register on the network either, so im all out of ideas!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Did you get the phone new or used? I could be wrong but it looks tome like someone may have unlocked the bootloader and later re-locked it. I don't think this would affect your reception.

Maybe you should re-flash your phone's radio. It's also possible something has gone wrong with your phone that is not software-related.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humzaahmed155:
It would of said **RE-LOCKED OOW** or something like that if someone re locked it, it looks as though its been updated to a unlockable bootloader though, he could do with unlocking it and flashing a radio, he'll lose all data on the device though
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Oh, didn't know it would say "RE-LOCKED" as i have an unlocked bootloader but have never relocked it.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
Re locking or unlocking the boatloader will not affect the signal. That seems to be a hardware issue and therefore you might need to visit a service centre

Hi, guys...

Hope that you can help me...

I've been using CM10.1 for a few month, and since the last month, my sensation shutdown without motives a few times in a day... after looking for information in Internet, reset the phone, installing other different roms, I have discovered that these shutdowns only occur with non Sense, CM10.1, roms..., and after two weeks of investigations, I discover that these shutdowns occur with random access to the SDCard... So I decide to format the SDCard, After this, the phone works great for two o three days, and the shutdowns appears again...

Some guys told me that this can be caused by a broken SDCard, so I replace the one that I use with a new SDCard... Them, the phone works great again for a few days, and them, the shutdowns appear again...

Tired of this situation, I decided to install a rom with Sense, and with this rom, the shutdowns have disappeared...

I don't like much the Sense rom, it is slower than a non Sense rom, I was very happy with the speed of the CM10.1 rom...

Any one can help me with this particular? Some guys told me that this may be causes by a virus, but I reset the phone to factory status everytime that I install a new rom to test, and I format the SDCard too...

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] onemanshow85:
interesting discovery. Can u tell more about battery percentage when shutdown occurs? In my case, it only happens when I'm below 20%. Doubt this stuff is caused by a virus.

Do you recall installing a certain app just before the shutdowns started happening?

sidenote, make a new nandroid after formatting your SDcard
[HTC Sensation] innovaspain:
Hi...

In my case, sometimes is with low battery, sometimes in full charge, sometimes around 50% of chargge... I try to check every app I install... for a few times, after install swiftkey and download two languages, spanish and english, phone shutdown when typping an sms or note (perhaps the swiftkey dictionary was installed on SDCard, and here is the SDCard access again), Sometimes the phome shutdown taking a photo... and the photo was recorded on the SDCard, so here is the SDCard access again, jejeje...

Some guys told me about this particular, maybe is the effect of a virus, but I formated the SDCard (sometimes I change the SDcard by a new SDCard, just out of the box), and the phone... The only thing that I don't test is the nandroid after SDCard formatting... Hope to try it this noon at my home...

I will keep you informed...
[HTC Sensation] innovaspain:
Hi...

After try nandroid, use a fresh install of XenonHD, with a formated SDCard... Shutdowns again... Now I on Sense 4 rom (the one from V6 maniac), and the phone works ok...

Sad times for me... :(
[HTC Sensation] Fr3nc:
Try this DUDE it works for me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXR7Ra3f2LU
[HTC Sensation] mymeatb18:
Well I was experiencing that too on my wife's phone (dont have ansensation)and It seemed the only thing that worked was a GB ROM. Did it even updating to the ota ICS not rooted. Except it would always reboot multiple times a day after flashing rom. Until I flashed in this order:

1) full wipe

2) flash firmware

3) full wipe again

4) then flash ROM

Haven't had reboots anymore
[HTC Sensation] innovaspain:
Hi guys...

After try all your suggestions... (my battery is an anker 1900 mAh, not the original, and fit really good on the phone, no moves, no gaps), the only thing that work for me was format all the phone, partitions and SDCard... install new Kernel 3.4.10 based on HTC Ville C2 kernel, flash the new Reveleation Rom from SebastianFM, and then, the new JB Sense 4+ ViperS 3.1.0 Rom from Team Venon, and all the problems and random shutdowns are dessapear.

Working flawless for 8 days, and happy with this rom and new kernel.

Hope to try CM10.1 soon again... ;)
[HTC Sensation] innovaspain:
Hi, guys...

Now I on CM 10.1 again, just with a simple trick, a small plastic piece, in the top part of the battery, placed between the battery and the phone... doing pressure on the contacts of the battery... Now, the phone don't shutdown, just a screen blink, and everything works great.

Search in youtube for the trick, a few videos show it.

Hello I Have Just Upgrade 2 WM 2003SE & Since I Have Upgraded My Fone Seems 2 Hard Reset On Its Own For No Particular Reason, I will Just Exit A Program And Then All Of A Sudden It Will Hard Reset Its Self!

Is There Anything I Can Do 2 fix this problem?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] frenchy:
upgrading your XDA II

By the looks of your radio version (1.08), You may need to upgrade your bootloader version.

For OS version 1.66 you really need to have bootloader version 1.06

If your own is 1.01 or 1.03 it will be unstable.

To find out your boot loader you need to press the standby button, the action key, and the reset button together. This will put you into bootloader mode.

The latest stable bootloader is 1.06.

The latest rom software version is 1.72.

The latest radio software is 1.17.

So you need to find this bootloader or reflash you unit back to your previous OS version :lol:

You could also try and upgrade you radio version to 1.16 to match your OS Version (1.66). but you do need to get that bootloader upgraded.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] MadMaka13:
Me Confused,

:shock: :shock: :shock:

I'm confused 4 i have upgraded 2

Windows CE 2003se

Rom Version 2.06.00WWE

Radio Version 1.18.00

Protocol Version 1337.38

ExtROM Version 1.12.925 WWE

from this site!

Why you say the latest ver is,

The latest bootloader is 1.06.

The latest rom software version is 1.72.

The latest radio software is 1.17?

Why Go Backward In Ver or is wat i got just crap?

is the 1 you say more stable over all? if so would you no where i can get my hands on asia install for my fone?

or can i fix wat i got now?

also if you no how could i make an SD Card To Boot/Load My XDA 2 (asia)? I'm keen on learning How 2 DO that 2:-)

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funkynp:
Hi Everyone,

As with every i9500 owner, I am struggling to find a rom i can work with (there isn't enough variety and many issues) so i would like to go back to stock. the i9500 i bought was from Taiwan but it had a lot of bloatware. I am looking for a European rom that has at least bloatware in english that i can manage :)

the current rom i am using (Doc's barebone with persus kernel) is fairly well but i am experiencing crashes once in a while and radio issues..

The current firmware is: I9500XXUBMF3

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OJNSim:
Hi

Guess the question is relevant to all devices Anroaid.

I searched and read in many places but I still did not fully understand how is the internal sd card is devided, what each part contains and how to "clean up" things that are not relevant to more

My Galaxy S1 device internal card size is 8G.

Checking system -> storage indicates it is devided to two: 1.48 Internal storage and a 5.64 USB storage.

The first question is where is a almost 1G to complete to the total of 8G?

I understand that the internal storage contains the operating system and applications installations.

however,I can see the the usb storage also contains folders of past and current installed applications, of course in addition to music, pictures etc.

Now I want to install a new ROM and clean everything that is not nessacary.

I understand that when installing a new rom the internal storage actually completely cleared and re-installed. Is it true?

What about usb storage? Whether and how to re-format it? Is it necessary at all to do that?

Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jabrif:
Installing a new ROM won't clear all the internal storage. You have to do it manually. In stock, it is recommended to do a factory reset after the first boot. While in custom ROM you have to wipe data, wipe cache and wipe dalvic cache before the installation.

It is not necessary to clear the data in USB storage.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OJNSim:
Lately the device has strange behavior every once in a while - and I would like to clean it as much as possible

I am using custom rom, hopefully wiping everything will do the job.

Yet, I do want to clean the internal storage as well.

What can be done regarding that? can I format it?

If yes - how, and how to recreate the standard folders tree?

If not - what can be done?

tx
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jabrif:
wiping data will clear your system memory, ie app data

If you want to go deep, there are options available in CWM recovery under Mounts and storage menu to format /system, /Data, /Cache, /sdcard and even External sdcard,
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OJNSim:
This is the thing...

I am trying to understand what the purpose of each option - and eventually what are the steps the order, to achieve the cleanest possible device with the rom I want to flash

I actually just noticed that in the previous post I wrote Internal storage rather than USB storage. Anyway..I need please some more accurate information.

Is that possible to format only the USB storage?

Or is there a way to safely remove / clean / wipe old stuff, like applications' folders that are not in used anymore, and other things I am not aware off?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav2511:
Hi guys,

I noticed something rather strange today. My One looses its wifi signal when I hold it (upper side) with my right hand. I've made a video to demonstrate how quickly it looses the signal and regains it (when I remove my hand).

The thing is, it doesn't always loose the signal all the way. I guess it depends on the signal strength of the room I am in. If I'm next to the router the signal doesn't drop at all, but as I move away to the next room, you can see what happens.

Here's the link to the video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbprCTr4JQg&feature=youtube_gdata_player

And I was starting to believe that my One is perfect. :cool:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scotcruz:
Just watched your video and tried it myself and yes it does loose the WiFi signal.

Suppose it's the WiFi antenna that obstructs the signal.. guess that's the way it is
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
the antennae are part of the back, so there is always a deathgrip, don't hold it like that it seems very unnatural anyways
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biohaz55:
I've just tried this and had no loss of signal.

I guess all phones are like this though, the antennas are in the back somewhere and depending on the phone and where you hold it your hand is going to block the signals to some extent.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav2511:
I know directly gripping the antenna will affect the signal strength. But I'm gripping the sides not the back; there's not much contact with the plastic strip at the back.

And sometime when holding the phone in landscape you tend to cover those areas with your hand.. Till now, this hasn't been a 'problem' for me.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ataft:
Ya it's definitely there, but it's pretty good. I had to cup both hands around it to get the signal strength really low. With one hand, I could only make it lose one bar.

I guess don't cup your hand around the antenna if you are in a place with less than ideal WiFi signal.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] expertzero1:
Well, are you going to hold your phone like that everyday?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav2511:
No, but that wasn't the point of this post. It's more of a FYI than bashin' HTC over its death grip issue.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav2511:
Ya, but the strange this was how quickly the signal dropped for me. It's not a deal breaker anyway, it's a good thing the wifi antenna isn't at the bottom!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cicinho:
I've just tried it and can't seem to get my signal to drop like that. It doesn't lose anything.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monkeypaws:
what about with a case? In using a basic tpu case. Androidify. It fits very tight around the phone and notice the sensitivity to WiFi and signal. I didn't notice this until I took off the case. My phone was flying. Once I put it back there was some lag time for stuff to load

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AlinTheron:
Hi, I have a SONY XPERIA S rooted, and I have SuperSU after root. Now do I really need other apps like Superuser or BusyBox? Or Superuser it's the same thing as SuperSU.

Can i use the phone just with SuperSU or those apps : Superuser and BusyBox are a must ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
You don't have to install Superuser because you already have SuperSu. Busybox is very useful and many apps depend on busybox so it is much better to have busybox installed. But usually, most rooting tool kits [like DoomLorD's] even install busybox if my memory serves me. So if you would like to know if you already have busybox installed, just check my signature for my app on Playstore:)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] AlinTheron:
Yes I have rooted with this : SuperSU-1.25-Busybox-1.20.2-UPDATE but only SuperSU appeared on my phone, as an app. Doesn't BusyBox should appear as an app to ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] abcdjdj:
Oh that's great. Then you should have busybox installed too. Busybox is not an app and hence you won't find it in the app drawer. It is an all in one executable file which contains a variety of commands [linux commands] like cp, mkdir, touch etc. It is located in system/xbin or system/bin.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Captain Droid:
Use "Root Checker Pro.apk" to check superuse & busybox is correctly installed.

Download the pro version of root checker or buy , your wish.

Busybox is required for some mods to work.

I use Xperia Ion, i need busybox for clockworkmod to work properly.

For u it might help in some other mods.
