I'm having this problem too :( Anyone have a solution? My HTC Magic just keeps showing the "htc" logo and refreshes every ~5 seconds. Tried taking battery and microSD out, no luck. The last app I used was Alarmania.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Tobi87:
i wonder if i could download a different rom to a different sdcard an then load it up to my MT3G :rolleyes:
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bighill89:
Issue Solved!

I just called Rogers and spoke to a very helpful Rogers tech support rep. This is the solution he offered and it worked for me:

1. When the phone is off, press and hold the Home and Power button until the phone comes on.

2. You should see a little icon with an exclamation mark. Now press and hold the Home and Power button again.

3. You should see some instructions and some options. Use the trackball to select Factory reset. This will erase all your phone's data, but if you're in the cloud (ie your contacts are with Google), you should be fine, you'll just have to reconfigure everything (ie mail accounts, keyboard calibration, home screens, app downloads and preferences).

I hope that helps. I just spent a very unhappy 12 hours without my phone.

FYI: I have a non-rooted Rogers HTC Magic with no mods whatsoever. The problem started one random night when I wasn't using my phone, it just got stuck at the HTC logo like it was about to restart, and it just kept refreshing the logo.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Tobi87:
dang my phone is rooted :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bighill89:
Another 24 hours later and I have the same problem. My phone went into a perpetual restart last night, it just got stuck at the boot screen, so I had to do a factory reset again. Any advice on what I should do? The nightly factory reset is not a solution.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bighill89:
Spoke to someone on another forum with the same problem. This problem seems to happen when you use alarm clock apps. The problem happened to me whenever I was setting an alarm in Alarmania or Alarming. I'll try the phone without an alarm clock app and keep you guys updated.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] kerdum:
I've been doing a lot of research on this the past week. I did not have this problem on my sapphire until after I rooted my phone. I've tried 3 different android custom roms. They all seem to work well at the beginning and then the random reboot occurs maybe a day or two into regular use.

Whats seems to be interesting is I've heard a lot of people in the US say it was after the 1.6 update. So I'm going to try using 1.5 again to see what happens.

I haven't even tried the HERO Rom. I had no interest in it I just wanted my phone to run faster. This could be an underlying problem in the android OS. It could also be the crappy HTC quality starting to come out ;).

this is the first thread that I've seen someone who didnt have a rooted phone with this issue. Could mean it IS a hardware thing.

Anyways I'll keep you guys posted. Its a crappy problem for sure.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Reyland:
try using another sd card,format a new sd to fat 32 ,copy paste the custom rom you want,boot into recovery mode,wipe data,wipe cache and flash the rom,that works for me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Neejay:
I can confirm this. I have a mytouch 3g, and with 1.5, the camera was working fine. As soon as I got the OTA 1.6 update, the camera would cause random rebooting.

I called T-Mobile USA and had a replacement phone sent to me. I got the phone, didn't install any apps, and waited until I got the OTA 1.6 update again, tested the camera several times, and got no reboots. I flashed dwang's 1.6 ROM and I am still reboot-free.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hkyoon:
this prob anyone got fixed??
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] aeronaut:
hi there,

it seems as if i had the same problem. i got an htc magic with android 1.5 (swiss edition), i guess, and after i installed alarmania and had it alarming, it rebooted. instead of showing me the home screen, it just shows a htc brand and makes a sound, and repeats this after maybe 30 seconds.

i tried taking out the battery for some minutes, didnt work. i tried to go to safe mode (pressing menu and power), but it fell into the same circle, as well as when i tried to do a factory reset. i also tried to take out the battery for 20 hours, but same reaction.

does anyone have an idea what to do? ill try to call htc tomorrow.

thx for your help,

aeronaut

ps: please excuse my bad english, but im swiss. this is the only forum where i found similar problems to mine.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] FoTwoZero:
This won't help you at this point but there seems to be a trend happening. Could it be Alarmania!? My suggestion would be to not use that app as it seems to cause problems. As per the camera causing the same issue, I'm not sure if there is an update for your phones but I just recieved an update for mine (Rogers HTC Magic) and I also got stuck in a boot loop after installing the first update. I had to use a Mini SDcard adapter that I purchased at my nearest electronics dealer for ei. BestBuy. It came with a class 4 4gb SDcard and it fits on my keychain. Basically you can use this to put a new IMG on your SDcard and then reboot your phone into fastboot. The IMG will automatically install (just follow the instructions). One issue may be finding the new correct IMG that you need but I`m sure you won`t have too much of a problem finding it on an established forum such as XDA. Good luck
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] aeronaut:
thx for your help, but im not able to "restart" my phone normally - as i said, not even the factory reset mode is working. any other idea without flashing the ROM? :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] dk75:
flashing only

thank goodness I've made recovery image just before installing Alarmania - Alarms is the same

Alarmed Litle is one that worked but it crash every system start
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] What the...?:
I was having the same problem, but this, which I found on the "Canadian HTC Magic Gets Sense UI and 911 Fix" threat at androidguys.com

"If you're getting the never-ending boot screen, your phone is -not- bricked. you just haven't finished the second part. you NEED a micro-sd adapter. Turn the phone off (take out the battery), and have a micro-sd card adapter. while the phone is off, take out the sd card and plug it on your comp and delete SAPPIMG.zip from the memory card. Once that's deleted, you need to extract "HTC_Magic_Update_File2.zip" and move "SAPPIMG.zip to the memory card (it's got the same name as the first "SAPPIMG.zip" file, but the second one is supposed to be around 85mb, so don't confuse the two) after that, just repeat steps 3-8 from the first part and that should finish the update on the phone. (this part takes a while, so be patient)"

Cheers
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] dk75:
Yes but it is only when "flashing phone was aborted".

It is not for "after instaling Alarmania" on a phone without

Sense UI.

Data WIPE not worked for me, only reflashing phone with my saved flash image (thank gooddess that I've backuped my phone beforehand) done the trick.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] aeronaut:
well, its funny, i understood the reset page on the htc homepage wrong - i called their hotline, and i was able to reset it. but some days after, i have the same prob. i dunno if it is caused by any other app i have installed during these days (i do not remember as well), but ill try to get a newer rom onto my magic :)

[General Questions and Answers] Gosseyn:
Hello,

I saw the video on youtube where flash and multitouch are shown on HTC HERO. I wonder if the flash possibilities ( I mean, when you click on video/game, it comes in fullscreen mode like a desktop application ) are the same on windows mobile ? Because I love this concept and I'm going for Toshiba TG01 which supports flash.

This is the video that I'm talking about http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZLOndllpUM&feature=fvst

Thanks mate,

Hello to all.

How do I change the skin of the onscreen-keyboard?

Thank you in advance :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] typo:
Well, depending on which keyboard it is, it might be possible to reskin, but I'd personally recommend just searching this site for "FingerKeyboard" which is a free replacement keyboard that works MUCH better than the standard ones and is skinnable.

If you just want to change WM default keyboard skin, then you need to change the this file! msim.96.dll.0409.mui. If you want different layout, then search for keyboard skins, and you will find some!

Hi,

I currently work for o2 and get a cracking staff sim 1000mins 1000txt +unlimited web for £10 a month. But my vodafone contract is up for renewal and im thinking of getting this one basically with vodafone my average spend is £60 a month (Well was) So they are literally bending over backwards to keep me as a customer. So far they have offered me this phone costing around £20 a month wondering if I get it unlocked am I going to be able to use all its features i.e internet and is it possible to get it debranded..

Cheers

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] brumle80:
imo the Vodafone branded phone is a less attractive product since they have crippled it when it comes to memory, and with the release of the HTC Hero so close imho you are better of waiting and get that one instead with a proper headphone jack, 5megapixel cam and built in flash, depends on how gadget horny you are probably :p

ps: at least that's how I have understood that the thing with vodafone branded magic's are...

I'm using the same ROM and same input (because the system partition has no space, I can't push the other files to it).

I was able to customize hotweiss's most recent rom to have CIME in the update.zip file. I deleted the ringtones (as per suggestions from the TW HTC rom thread, to make the system partition smaller) and with rosie.apk is smaller as well, had just enough room for the CIME library. I have 1mb left in system partition. :)

If anyone wants me to upload this rom, I can do it. I did delete Twitter, Footprints, Quickoffice, HTC sync and the regular IME (I didn't feel a need for another english keyboard, the CIME one is more then adequate.) from this rom, and added in the most recent copy of Astro.

If you want, I can add those stuff back in, these are stored in the data folder, not system, so it should be fine.

This is the ROGERS rom, without swapper installed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] onenew:
I would like to ask how can I add / remove stuff based on existing signed ROM and then sign it again?

Just be careful when adding stuff that you don't go over the limit in the system partition. The first few times I tried putting CIME in the rom, it gave me an error when I was flashing the file.

[General Topics] Menneisyys:
Touch Physics has become an instant success on the iPhone. I’ve also purchased it for my phone and spent a lot of time with it.

A Windows Mobile game based on the same ideas has just been released. It requires you to draw objects that, after falling down, trush a ball towards its destination. It’s a free title (as opposed to the iPhone one, which costs $3).

Availability, compatibility

The homepage of the title is HERE, with a direct link to the CAB download. Note that, should you want to run it under Windows Mobile 6.5, you’ll need an additional hack available HERE.

I’ve tested it on four test devices: HP iPAQ 210 (factory Windows Mobile Classic 6.0), HTC Universal (cooked 6.1), Dell Axim x51v (cooked 6.1) and HTC Wizard (cooked 6.1). The first three are VGA, the last is a QVGA device. I had no problems at all with any of them.

It's WM5+ only (no pre-WM5) and, naturally, it doesn't run on touchscreen-less Windows Mobile Standard phones.

Compared to the iPhone / iPod Touch version

Pros

-	Free

Cons

-	Lower resolution (on VGA devices too) - pretty blocky on devices with larger screens (like the 4" iPAQ 210)

-	No in-game music (which is just great on the iPhone)

Verdict

If you don’t have an iPhone / iPod Touch, get it. Otherwise, go for the iDevice version instead (if you can and want to afford it) – it’s better.

I love the yellow folder icons in some of the new 6.5 roms but there were not enough category folders. So.... I designed my own in Photoshop so that they would totally match the existing icons in the Start Menu.

Install restart app.

Extract and copy the png icons to storage card\Programs\restart\icons folder.

Go to windows\start menu\programs and add new folders such as Web, Travel, Audio, Video, Fun, Utilities, etc etc

Launch restart to change the default folder icons to the new icons.
