a larger swap would be good if you would be using all that space enter "free" into the terminal or adb to see how much swap you have left remaining unused

I personally can't see using all that swap space
[G1 Android Development] turtleman13:
those kernels that are being used on those ROMs are already performace based with RAM Hack in all ready
[G1 Android Development] sunsean:
Hey Ace42, can you be a little more specific about that sense rom you're suggesting? I did a search for "OC 672" but only found this delsa rom and a thread about a kernel...is it 2.1 based? or 1.5? I, like many, want the best sense I can find, so I'd like to check it out but I can't find it lol. Thx!

Oh thanks Royalknight, lol. Yeah, actually tried that one already, wasn't too crazy about it. The htc homescreen kept re-setting itself. Thanks for pointing it out though!
[G1 Android Development] meezy009:
yea well da performance kernel on that rom is no good. lol...hey delsa mayb u should do some work on the slide rom would b nice to see wat u can do wit it =]

[G1 Android Development] DelsaDj:
sorry...but the only update I can upload for you is with the screen indicator in rosie...

I want to upload with more features... :(

in this day I'm really busy....maybe tomorrow I release something....

do you want Delsa legend rom with OC kernel??
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
Yes, but make the default 528 so that people can just crank it up if they want.

And an indicator release (on rosie) would be nice too, if it's already packaged.

thanks for your work.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poppop71:
Hello X1 Mates,

I searched the Forums up and down to find a similar thread but this topic does not seem to be striked here.

I have the X1 for a year now and flashed all kind of custom ROMs made available by the great people here.

My problem is like this: I live and work near the dutch border where also some strong dutch networks are avaible. I set my network to "manual" and set my home network to the one of my own provider.

The experience with the phone is quite horrible here, because

it searches for networks all the time, it switches between GPRS, Edge and 3G all the time, it looses network quite often

The problem with that is

* the phone is 100% busy in the time, no input, no keyboard, no phone call (even if I do have network) in that time

* battery will be completely used up in a few hours

I searched the forums for "freeze", "blocked", "roaming" and found a few topics, but they were not related to the network availability.

When I travel and do have a good network coverage the phone works quite well ... no problem.

Anything I can do against the freeze effect? Even if set to "manual" it keeps searching all the time - can this be switched off?

Any Registry Tweak known or tool?

thanks and cheers
[Desire General] sudman:
I have an interesting problem, kind of. Bought my phone second hand as supposedly unlocked & debranded but on boot up it after the HTC logo I get the Virgin Media logo, not really an issue though. Anyway the problem is when I switch the phone off and then switch on again it boots up fine to the home screen and then it will reboot itself and carries on doing this. i.e. boot up to home screen then reboot again continuously.

To get out of this reboot loop I have to remove the sim & boot the phone with no sim in it then switch off and insert my normal Vodafone phone sim and switch on again. after that the phone is fine until I power down and then the same thing happens.

Anybody else experienced this or got any ideas?? It came with 1.15.405.4 firmware already installed and I have tried reflashing with the same firmware using the goldcard method & it worked but the problem remains. When the sim registers on the network is when the reboot loop seems to start. :-)
[Desire General] TieT:
did you try reflashing it ?

hold down the side button (down) and press on at the same time.

then select erase data and press on again

if you bought it second hand, its hard to say what the previous user has done with it ...
[Desire General] sudman:
Yep tried reflashing it, just about to reflash again with an older rom. It's just wierd that a sim card authenticating to the network would cause a reboot loop. :(
[Desire General] gens6200:
Maybe it's a dumb question - But I'm having some issues that doesn't seem to get solved by a factory reset - Would it be an idea to reflash it for this, so the phone gets a fresh rom?

How would I do it specifically? Do you know of a guide somewhere?
[Desire General] TieT:
have you tried a different sim card ?
[Desire General] sudman:
Ye tried a different sim card, boots fine and all is good till you reboot the phone and then the same happens again. Anyways flashing was a disaster this time round as I was doing it on my work pc and Symantec kicked in thinking it found a virus with adb.exe and halted the process & quarrantined the file. Now everytime I try and reflash on a different PC I get the dreaded error(110):file open error. Disconnect the phone & all I get is a black screen & HTC logo. Nice. Thanks Symantec you've just bricked my Desire!!
[Desire General] sudman:
*UPDATE* - Fixed.

Removed the battery, left it for a few hours then reflashed on a different pc and it flashed fine. Then thought I'd try & repeat so reflashed with the older rom from here (originally used the newer rom posted on Modaco) and got the error again and again couldn't flash back to the newer. Removed the battery left for an hour and then could reflash again and get it working!! Wierd :)
[Desire General] ikrastev:
I had the same problem.

My Solution: remove battery, remove the SIM, put battery reboot, turnoff, remove battery, put SIM, put battery, boot
[Desire General] Tequila98:
first i want to excuse my bad english,hope you will undestand what i´m trying to say. ;)

i have the same problem since a few days.

first time i notice it,was when the desire was charching and i used it a bit,it restarts again and again.so i put out the battery and wait a few minutes,than it works.

it´s also,when i use it a long time with wifi or 3G....the the phone turns off and i have the boot loop.

but when i take out my sim,it works fine.

my question is,do i need a new sim or is it a hardware problem?

does anybody know?

greetz from germany!
[Desire General] sugar0:
sorry, wrong thread
[Desire General] genetial:
same here.

i have the exact same problem!! any solution? after that the phone will boot loop over and over! damn!
[Desire General] Kinma:
I had the same problem last week.

I suspected it had to do with the EXT3 partition.

Solved it by first flashing the OTA 2.2 ROM (for rooted users) as this does not use the EXT3. Then used Rom manager to recreate the EXT3.

Now all ROMs that use the EXT3 run fine!
[Desire General] genetial:
hmmp

as long as i know, i did not install anything on my phone lately so thats the problem so far and i think tequila98 also having the same problem as me, cause when i remove my sim card the phone works fine. but ive reset my phone yesterday and not restarting so far hope this will continue.
[Desire General] jxleung:
I really wished there was a dead fix to this problem we are all having!

My problem:

My phone was running fine until a few weeks ago. There was no rebooting problems when I first got my phone (April) and when I flashed my phone for the first time (May). Happened a few weeks ago when I was browsing on YouTube where my phone suddenly restarted on it's own.

Before it was once a couple of days, now it has gotten more frequent and annoying.

I don't think the heat is the problem because I don't go on the internet much because of my data plan. I use wifi when I browse the web, youtube, etc. And I certainly don't use Google maps or any heavy duty applications. That's just what I think...

My phone rebooted 3 times today in a time span of 4 hours? I noticed that my phone rebooted itself when I use the camera to take a picture or video. Doesn't happen everytime, but that's what happened today. Also, when my phone rebooted today, my application Advanced Task Killer was automatically removed from my phone! That was weird... But I experienced another reboot even after having the app removed.

I really hope someone can find the core of this problem and fix it!

My phone is running on DeFroST 2.0b Android 2.2

My battery stats: 42% for display, 26% for cell standby, 21% for phone idle, 4% for android system, 3% for voice calls, 2% for android OS

same problem here guys :( why desire have a this problem ? why no one cant find any solution ?

PLZ help us :confused:
[Desire General] pilgrim011:
It's probably hardware problem with motherboard. Therefore I recommend you to take your phone to repair center and they should replace mobo with new one. That's what I did and now everything is ok.
[Desire General] deeeez:
I am having the exact same problem. Seems to be related to the SIM.

But the SIM works fine in another phone.

Did anyone find any more information?
[Desire General] ste1164:
If you get random reboots its most likely ther motherboard there is a massive thread about it on the forums. You need to send it off to a HTC repair centre.
[Desire General] rottunix:
Just got this problem.

I rooted yesterday. Today I made a nandroid backup. After that the phone is in a reboot loop.

How is this possible from just and backup???

Tnx.

Edit:

Restored backup and is working fine again.
[Desire General] Elim:
nandroid backup loop

I have the same problem.

I will try it. Maybe the backup is not only a backup but also a remove? Strange.

I will comment if this works also for me.

EDIT: Restore helps :-)

I installed the gingerbread ROM from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=829734

Much help would be appreciated!
[Desire General] itarci:
I have same problem... :(
[Desire General] deheld1:
Same here....

Hey Guys,

i got a very similar behaviour then reported here, but i think it doesn't have to do anything with clockwork mod or root for me.

Sytem before root:

BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.93.0001

MICROP-031d

TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101

RADIO-5.11.05.27

HTC Stock ROM 2.29.405.5

Procedure i have done:

- rooted with unrevoked

- booted into recovery

- made backup

After doing that the Stock ROM is booting normally then (with root & clockwork), but all custom ROMs i tried to flash out of ClockWork went to boot loop.

Some of them even get the system up, but after a while (<5 Minutes) they suddenly freeze and reboot to loops, stuck at bootscreen or same behaviour described earlier.

I have restored the Backup of the Stock ROM and everything is fine, but i would really appreciate to get CM6.1.1 or CM7 to work :/

I hope anyone has a idea, what i could try to get it done.

Thanks for help.

regards deheld1
[Desire General] _JuSteR_:
check out here
[Desire General] deheld1:
Doesnt help :/

@_JuSteR_: Thanks for your reply, but this doesn't help me at all.

I know that lots of desire got this problem, but i don't know if there is a way to get this problem solved.

What about getting it repaired/replaced:

I called the vendor yesterday and told him about the problem. I wanted to know what i could do to get it repaired/replaced. They told me that i have to send it to them and they will forward it to HTCs Support. I asked to send it to HTC myself and they told me to call their support hotline.

so i did:

The employee of HTC asked for my IMEI and told me to get it repaired by T-Mobile, cause my device is branded by them.

I have not talked to T-Mobile right now, but i'd like to know if someone knows about this kind of "redirecting" customers.

Its sad to be treated like that....

I bought the desire on August, 5th 2010, so the 6 months warranty has just passed, but the problem has occured long time ago.

Any suggestions on what i could do?

Thanks for your help.

regards deheld1
[Desire General] mr_norris:
Guys, if you're experiencing random reboots, no amount of flashing radio's or different ROM's will help.

I have been there, I have done it all.

Bottom line, it needs to go for repairs, most likely have the mainboard replaced. I had similar issues when:

* Using the GPS

* Using any CPU intensive app, like games

* Using wifi for an extended period

I flashed a stock RUU, took it back to my vendor. They did the same thing and gave it back to me (2 week wait) and the issue still occurred.

I then contacted the agents that deal with HTC in South Africa and after discussing it with them, they recommended that the main board be replaced.

It's my third week without my beloved phone :( But trust me, save yourselves some time and just take it back.
[Desire General] pandra:
Same situation here, thnaks for the tips in the thread. REbooting and restoring the backup has solved my issues as well. Anyone know how to UNroot a permanent root?
[Desire General] econcep:
Here's my suggestion as I've experienced similar and more.

Backup contents of your SD card to your pc.

Reformat SD Card using FAT 32. If you're OS is Windows try using program like HP disk formatter.

If you rooted phone correctly and able to boot phone into recovery, place SD card back into phone and boot in recovery scroll down to partition SD card if using Clockworkmod recovery it will partition SD card using EXT3 512 swap 0 is sufficient for this process you cam change partition size to meet your needs. After this step is completed you should still be in recovery. Now scroll to mounts & storage. You'll want mount device as USB. Now transfer your files from pc back to SD card. Also transfer zip file of custom ROM you'd like to flash. If you have an update.zip file on the root of SD card remove it.

Now unmount your device usb from pc.

Scroll back in recovery to install zip from SD card. Find your recovery-update.zip in the Clockworkmod folder and flash that file. Once its finished your phone should reboot into recovery. Now install zip from SD card again this time flash your choice of ROM you copied previously transferred to your SD card. As always, do full wipe clear cache and dalvik cache before flashing your ROM. Once you install ROM and if all is successful please make sure you enable USB debugging and select Unknown Source Install in your applications settings. Hope this helps.
[Desire General] deheld1:
@econcep:

Thanks for your Help but reformating and partitioning sd-card did not help at all.

Its pretty wierd that rooted stock rom works pretty fine for me, but everytime i try to flash any custom rom im stuck in random reboots and/or bootloops.

For now im still running:

BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON

HBOOT-0.93.0001

MICROP-031d

TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101

RADIO-5.11.05.27

with Build 2.29.405.5 and Kernel 2.6.32.15 on my HTC Desire A8181

Any hints are welcome.

I'ld really like to get any ROM to work.

Is there a need to S-OFF? Flash Kernel? Change Radio? What could i try to get it done?

EDIT: I tried to flash CM 7.0.3 today. But the error (random reboots after short time & some bootloops) persists.

I managed to log errors happening using "adb logcat *:E > error.txt".

The output is this:

Hey Guys,

It's been a while since I last tried flashing a Custom ROM. I thought it would be worth a try to S-OFF my Desire using Revolutionary and flash Cyanogen again. Now the Problem still persists. Another idea anyone?

Thanks for your Help.

PS: Sorry for thread necromancy, but its related to this.
[Desire General] A|ex:
Sorry to bump this up but i resolved mine by cleaning out the data. i just had a full data partition so the phone kept on looping. Not too sure why it suddenly died after a backup as it was working fine when it was on.

SD-EXT seems fine too and there is plenty of space on the SD.
[Desire General] deheld1:
Hi Alex,

Would you please describe what you did in more detail?

I tried to flash the new CM 7.1.0 just yesterday and there is nothing even better at all. It keeps freezing (and booting) over and over again regardless of me doing anything or not. It seems to happen faster when the keyboard has to be shown (as for configuration of WLAN) but it also stucks when doing nothing.

I would be glad to here from you and getting my Phone "better" too ;)

Thanks Deheld
[Desire General] Romashencia:
Hi, I just wanted to say about my experience. I had the same problem with HTC Desire today (it kept booting and freezing, but strange thing - it seamed there was no problem without SIM card at all) and then I worked out that the problem was with the memory card. I changes the memory card and the phone seems working ok so far.
[Desire General] billyroy:
Solved the heating/rebooting problem!!

What I did was taking the phone apart, take out the bottom pcb.

At the back (front side) there is a metal cover. Remove it, and use a solder heat gun to heat the processor and reflow the connections. Let it rest for 10 minutes and put the phone back together.

My Desire does not reboot any more!
[Desire General] kenan11:
i am not sure whether i am doing something wrong

i installed v14 first. there was a boot loop , i returned to 2.3.6 stock

yesterday i tried v 15 . it gives lots of errors

exchange service stopped, mail service stopped etc

i change settings , in a minute it returns to default

i searched the tread i have no solution

i installed exactly as written on the first post

should i have installed kernel or some other thing before this. ?

All HTC desire phones out of the box maybe contain the same problem - faulty motherboard. I also experienced random reboots on stock 2.2 rom. I sent the phone for repair and everything is fine now. No more random reboots.

[Desire Themes and Apps] Andyokane:
Hello!

I've had my desire now for about a week and absolutely loving it!

just starting to customise it the way I like it and I was wondering if it can do this:

edit: damn wont let me post links but if you go to youtube and search "nexus one review1" its the 6th one down. Though you probably know exactly what im talking about anyway.

The way the apps in the menu fade in to the distance looks really nice.

Can the beast do this?

Sorry if its already covered elsewhere

Andy.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Karolis:
It's covered all over the place. Just get HelixLauncher2.

As for the links, post them like http: // youtube. com / - well, you get the idea...
[Desire Themes and Apps] Andyokane:
Hi thanks for replying but im not sure if you've misunderstood what I was asking.

I have already tried Helix2 and gone through the settings and all it does is replace my sense UI with the nexus ones interface, Minus the menu fading (the thing I actually wanted!)

I want to keep the look of my desire but when I press applications I want them to fade in and out at the top and bottom.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Andyokane:
Version 2 does do it, but you are stuck with it looking like the nexus one, which I dont really want.

Ahh well i'll skip that!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Final5k:
As in the title, do you use the phone when you go out or do you use it only at home? Since mobile phones/pocket pcs have become a bit smaller/slimmer but with bigger screens, the Universal is a beast or a big brick compared to actual phones in the market. Plus it is definitely heavy, more heavier if you put a 3200mah battery and is definitely far behind in terms of specs (no gps,accelerometer,only 64mb ram...). Have you come across people saying the Universal is a big/ugly/outdated phone?

I personally take 2 x 1620mah batteries when I'm out and only use the 3200mah when indoors. Still I find the Universal an attractive phone and the keyboard is definitely unique.

Would it be time to switch to a more stylish and less bulky phone like the HTC Touch Pro2, HTC Blackstone or the likes? What are your thoughts about this - just want to know what the community still think about this phone.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] genspeed:
i love my uni. compared Omania II. I like uni's qwerty keypad. and the rotating screen but yes it really heavy. I wish uni is gps capable and has motion sensing like Omania II
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] orb3000:
Universal, one of the greatest devices ever

You´ll find that proud owners of Universal are very happy and probably won´t get rid of their Uni´s!

On my case, I had Universal as my main and only device for almost 5 years, then I buyed a Rhodium but never with the idea to substitute my Universal, as it has not a real substitute on the market:eek:

HTC made it so well that they do not want to do another one as good as Uni...So sadly I don´t think we will find a "real" successor on the same from factor.

So yes you can buy another device but with the time you will find that there is nothing that will substitute great Uni.

Long live to Universal!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Simon_WM:
coud'nt we e-mail HTC with a request for a phone to succes the uni?

Please go ahead, you have my support and signature!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] boxchevy:
Mine too :D

All they need to do is add more ram/rom space, GPS, accelerometer, FM radio, and U.S. radio frequency. For all our users still with Uni with no 3G lol.

BTW Uni is still my only device I use currently. Thought about TP2 but passed on it.
