Hey guys,

I've had my Touch HD for about 5 months now, and I noticed last week that it seems to jump into a constant-reboot-loop every 2 or 3 days now.

The only way to solve it is to remove the battery for 5-10 minutes, put it back in and turn it on.

While the device is in this strange mode, it generally reboots *just* before the "Loading Windows" screen.

I believe I was running Miri's v16 or v17 when it first happened, and I'm currently using EnergyRom HD, which appears to have the same problem.

When it first started happening I flashed from Miri's rom to EnergyRom, and also did a hard reset, allowing Windows to reinitialise itself.

Has anyone else had anything like this happen to them? I'm starting to get concerned that my incredibly expensive device is slowly becoming nothing more than a brick...
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
In this thread, Megawhopp had a slightly similar problem which was resolved by doing the following:

1. Turn off the phone

2. Put it in the bootloader

3. Re-flashed the custom rom

4. Immediately unplug USB cable and yank battery after 100% flash

5. Immediate hard reset via phone buttons

Try this and let us know how you get along!!
[Touch HD General] daniel.hunt:
Thanks for the suggestion - I haven't tried it just yet, but honestly, I'm slightly skeptical :)

Also, I do all of my flashing via the SD card (BLACIMG.nbh), as I find it much more reliable than the USB connection method.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
No probs, your call. Let me know anyhow if you get it sorted or not
[Touch HD General] daniel.hunt:
Well, as I run Linux I've no choice but to do it the SD card way anyway, but I'll try the same test using the SD card method and see how it goes.

Thanks for the help, I'll let you know
[Touch HD General] daniel.hunt:
Right well I carried out the steps using the SD card flashing method when the rebooting issue kicked in yesterday evening.

It took 3 attempts, but it seems to have sorted itself out again.

I've no idea if it's the steps that solved the problem, or just the luck of the draw though...
[Touch HD General] SuicideBE:
I had same problem, and I'm using default ROM without any 3rd party programs...

Just take battery out for 5minutes

then put it back, pressing the red reset button and then while pressing the red reset button press the power button release both and the phone will start and will work perfectly...
[Touch HD General] daniel.hunt:
Yup, that's exactly what I do. What I want to know is WHY it happens though :)
[Touch HD General] daniel.hunt:
Looks like I still have this problem. I can't recreate it at will, and it doesn't seem to be caused by any particular action I'm doing at the time.

This is so bloody frustrating.

SAME PB

I have try out all:reflash rom/spl flash whith spl olinex /flash with uspl/

from storage card/ from xp and vista/ voodoo/cooking eggs........

Sreen smartmobility and reeboot ;a time bomb?
[Touch HD General] daniel.hunt:
I doubt it - this is happening across multiple different ROMs
[Touch HD General] ankodo:
this pb coming up the first time with a original rom (orange france). on this time a softreset was enough for make the HD working
[Touch HD General] daniel.hunt:
Firstly, it's a "problem", not a "pb". You have a full keyboard in front of you, so why not use it?

Secondly, it's slightly worrying me now that this is happening for you on a *stock* ROM. I really hope this isn't a hardware issue, or I'll be in for a whole world of hurt :(
[Touch HD General] ankodo:
sorry for "pb" another thing: HD is off;i put the charger in and 30seconds later he starts???
[Touch HD General] RacerII:
I got a similar problem using duttys 6.5 R4 , but only that rom.

Other roms work fine.

[Touch HD General] rsacipher:
I had the same problem, I found when I had 3G shut off and I had no or low signal it would go into a constant reboot. I turned 3G back on and never had the problem again.

Give that a try, no need to hard reset.

-----------------------------------------------------

Installation Instructions:

Note: This hotfix only can be applied to ROM versions equal to 1.40.XXX.X or lower.

-----------------------------------------------------

Is it not necessary for 1.43 rom users ??
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pedant städtant:
The hotfix doesn't work for me :confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] lafil:
ok, it worked for me... but I think it draines a lot more battery right now?

Can somebody confirm this?

After 6 hours it tooks 8% of the Battery (in idle mode)... no call, screen was off.

Before the patch it was 2-3% of the battery in 6 hours.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] phankhi:
need to copy the .exe file to your device and run from there.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pedant städtant:
I was a little quick in my answer

the installation went ok, but I won't receive any SMS when the screen is off
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] elmalote:
Hmm, doesn't seem to work for me either...:mad:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] oelapoel:
I guess, if you have 1.43, that means you dont need to use this hotfix... do you have this problem though?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] idesmond:
I have 1.43, and i still have this problem.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] XionaxPDA:
After I installed the hotfix my problem was solved.

Problem? When I was not in the home screen and I received a new text message the notification sound sometimes worked.. other times it didnt. When the phone was in the home screen, the notification sound always worked with incomming messages.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] littlescott:
Installed this and didn't make a difference :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] des163:
Same here... no difference after the hotfix.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] PhilipL:
Hi

Try using the Advanced Config program and under power management options change the 'Battery resume frm suspend timeout' to 10 seconds, that should resolve the problem where the SMS sound doesn't play.

Regards

Phil
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] sIiiS:
it worked, thanks for great help :)

do not need any HotFix!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] lotusfirst:

or which other program?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] sIiiS:
I think it is ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pedant städtant:
I sent a support mail to HTC and the told me to do a hard reset before installation the hot fix

but it did't work, then they told me to send it back for repair (stupid ??)

I tried the "Battery resuming from suspend timeout" thing and I think it's working

can anyone explain what this setting does ?

I notised when i installed the hot fix I did get a sound notification when the screen was in stand by mode

but not when the phone has been in standby more for more than ?? 60 minutes
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] wenxi:
it doesnt works on my set as well

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pedant städtant:
This works for me now

I tried the "Battery resuming from suspend timeout" thing and I think it's working

can anyone explain what this setting does ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pandora_box:
ck ck ck .... hotfix cannot solve my problem

advance config cannot work at my device...every i install hotfix,error notification always appear..

poor me...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pedant städtant:
Notised now that sometimes I don't get any sound notification on new SMS or Mail

I get the green light blinking, but no sound

If i restart the phone it works :mad:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] PhilipL:
Hi

When an event wakes the phone it is in "unattended mode" or resumed from sleep. An event will wake the phone when an SMS is received, but the setting means the phone goes back to sleep a second later which means the audio doesn't get chance to play.

Regards

Phil
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] .kRs.:
yes, I can confirm that the registry tweak/advanced config method does work.

Though i'm really wondering how a bug like this (pretty serious.. a phone is supposed to always alert for incoming sms) could have gone unnoticed/unfixed up to the final firmware.

And how an hotfix which doesn't fix could have been released as well.

And i'm thinking to those customers who don't read forums.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] cebong:
edit the registry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL go to DisableSMSWakeUpEvent and change the value from 1 to 0

then restart your phone...

you'll get the notification from any incoming SMS, but this will wake the phone up while it's in sleep mode
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] cebong:
kaskus gan??
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] BrunoCi:
The same is happening to me (ROM 1.39.408).

I installed the hotfix a couple of week ago, but today I had again the problem.

I've just sent an email to HTC, and they suggested me to hard reset my device...:rolleyes:

Mhhh, I'm not sure it will really solve the problem. I'm afraid I'm just going to waste my time reinstalling software, settings, numbers and so on....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] :
Can someone tell me which changes are made by this hotfix.exe?

Which files and which registry changes shall I extract to implement them to my selfmade ROM?

btw, horfix is working on my Topaz ;)

:cool:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] werdna72:
I downloaded the Advanced Configuration Tool, but when I tried to run it I got an unexpected error, saying that the tool needed a newer version of .NET Compact Framework. So I downloaded that, and when I tried to install it I got a message that there was a NEWER version already installed.

Maybe I'll just try the registry tweak - the hotfix hasn't worked for me!

Go to rick119.com. Such .cab can fix it. I tried the RickyMSYH6.0 there, really worked.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobRedbeard:
Guys this problem is a really simple one.

First, I haven't had a problem displaying Chinese in the dialer, but I'm still mainly using Chinese ROMs on my D2. They show fine on my WWE HD though.

Still, the problem is going to be whether or not MSYH has been mapped to the font being used in the dialer. Most likely the dialer has changed its font and msyh isn't being mapped there. For whatever Chinese font install cab you are using, look at the included _setup.xml for the current font mappings that it installs. You may be able to add those manually in the registry.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joy W:
Try this. I have used this on the Diamond, Diamond 2 and HD2 TMobile with no issues. Search for this file: "uhei00m-gray.cab". Copy it to the storage card and install to device. It will require a soft reset. If ALL programs do not display Chinese properly... reinstall the cab file and soft reset again. As a note: If you did not hard reset after the ROM flash this may or may not work with all programs. I have used this together with "kuruan.net_GB_PPC_v2.1.8.cab" chinese handwriting input with absolutley no problems with all ROM's I have tested. The speed of the handwriting recognition is awesome. My first post...lol. Hope it helps. I know all the posts I have read here have helped me tons.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 28mufields:
use RickyMSYH6.0. I been using it w/ many different phones, and it works almost every time. if there's some place doesn't display chinese, and some are, then that's means some fonts that didn't remapping to MSYH, then just find out what font that place is using, and then go to edit the reg to remapping it to MSYH

fonts that already remapped can be found here

Hello XDA users,

I have had problems with my diamond for quite a while now with the phone dropping calls.... and finally found im not the only 1...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=476139

This thread is with touch HD with exactly the same problems as mine.

The problem with the phones is that they change network and "during" that change they will drop the call.

I have updated my diamond with newest ROMS from HTC and it didnt work but after finding the above thread i tried changing the way that it switch networks.... AND BEHOLD it works... If you go in and change it to "only" gsm you will never loose a call again but ..... you will not have internet functionality.

I now would like to request the same way that they did in the other thread that people write down the first numbers of the serial to figure out if we have a "faulty" series as well thanks.

My S/N is: HT829 it was produced in 2008 week 28.

Thanks,
