I appear to have discovered once again that display stops hang and frozen is NOT the direct result of any installed customisation because I have not any whatsoever.​

· I suggest that there is either a possible bug in the underlying stock ROM Image Version: 3.14.110.1 or that some HD2 users have device with memory faults​

· I unreserved apologise to Sternas in anyway suggesting display hang, stop an frozen is an Artemis contingency. However, XDA members using HTC products are living with a display problem that deserves some recognition and a possible explanation from HTC.​

· I would however like someone to teach me HTC memory diagnostics?​

You may have noticed that I have added DISPLAY to stops, hangs and frozen. The reason is simple whilst the phone status was frozen the device alarm sounded at the exact time I had an appointment, so the device is not here an entire brick!​

PS Invoking once again the dreaded red reset button once and I am now reinstalling Artemis v56 with all my custom setups installed how I like warts and all​
