No random shut downs here on either cog 2.2 beta 5 or beta 6
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperSync:
+1 b5.5,b6,b7 No shutdowns. Had them all the time on 2.1 JF6.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
my random shutdown issue STOPPED as soon as I started running Cognition ROMS. DG was a lifesaver for my phone.

If your having them.. keep it on stock - if it repeats - you have a dud and need to get it replaced.

And when you flash it to stock.. don't load anything on it to see if it stops the random shutdown.

**edt... and um wth is this in the dev forum and not the Q&A?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phoenix-Lead:
Try this if you havent

No problems here either. I have been with Cog since the beginning and have never had this problem. I had it on another ROM from another Dev and immediately came back to Cog. I am now running Cog 2.2 Beta 7 and Love it! Fastest phone I have ever owned, very stable and GPS finally works!!! I would recommend flashing back to stock with Odin, doing a master clear and then installing Cog beta 7 via Rom Manager. I dont deal with Odin when flashing ROM's, only when going stock.

Hope this helps!:D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arsinic:
hey... i thought i was the only one getting the random shutdowns. i think i've been getting it since the first month of owning my phone. i get it 2-3 times a day. 1 if i'm lucky. i don't blame it on cognition's rom, tho... dunno what to do or who to ask about this problem.

but as for flashing back to stock and then the latest COG rom, i have tried that, but it didn't work...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gflare:
I haven't run Cog beta7 for very long, but I can tell you I've never had a random shutdown for the entire time I've owned my phone (bought 3 days after release).

I'm tempted to tell you to try a different battery or something of that nature...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tk1lla:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WheresWaldo:
This is not an unusual issue. Seems even Moto apologized for it in their Froyo OTA for the Droid. Moto says a fix is coming. I would suspect it is a Froyo bug and something that will be worked out in a future update for all Froyo handsets.

No random shutdowns for me on stock leaked of any of the 2.2 cognitions
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoXerO:
I've been having random shutdowns on Stock 2.1 Eclair for a while, there was another thread poster about this in the Q&A.

Even after I flashed to cognition b5.5, I get them, and with the same frequency. Sometimes I get 2 or 3 a day if I'm extremely unlucky, usually I'll only get one like once a week. I don't really find it to be too big of an annoyance.

I think it has something to do with an app, and not the phone itself. If you're getting them consistently 2-3 times a day then I guess you should just master clear, go back to plain stock, and then reflash cognition if you want to.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] designgears:
Its device specific, I had one that did it, they gave me a new one.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RKight:
That definitely seems to be the case. I had a Captivate that was running JF6 that was completely stock other than being rooted. It started randomly shutting down within a couple of days. I thought it could be an issue with rooting it, so I flashed back to stock and used it like that for a few days. The random shutdown issue didn't go away, so I took my phone back and told them it was defective. They gave me another one and I haven't had the shutdown issue even once, through JF6, JH7, JI6, and Cognition 2.2 Beta 6 and now Beta 7.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galil3o:
I just got an HTC Desire last week from uscellular and found that USCC hasnt sent the device footprint to goo yet so many of the apps in the market are inaccesible to me. I then decieded to root and install a custom ROM on my device in order to make all the apps available as well as upgrade to froyo 2.2 a little early.

After a little trouble rooting with unrevoked3, i finally got my desire rooted and went to install leedroid's froyo rom v 2.2a off my sd card after wiping the device. The install went fine but when I restarted the phone, it hung at the HTC loading screen.

I read on other forums that after installing a new ROM it would sometimes hang for up to 10 mins but mine has never gotten past the HTC screen on several different ROMs now and I'm getting a little stressed. I have let the screen hang each time for roughly 15-20 mins and at the longest 45 mins to no avail. I would be ok just getting it back to the factory ROM if possible, just so I can get my phone to boot.

Anyone have any ideas, it would be greatly appreciated.

I would really love to know why this was happening. I had the same problem, but after more than 30 hours of trying to solve it - unsuccessfully - I had to come to the STOCK ROM .. took a few hours again :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andresmartin002:
How to flash it? I rooted my desire some time ago and dont remember any more. Today i tried another Rom with clockworkmod, and it just froze. Now i can get to boot, but not to clockwork recovery. And when i try to install ROMs (i have tired 4 or 5 so far) it aborts installation of update.zip because of "signature verification"

Any ideas?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGhost1233:
How do you flash a rom when you can't get to clockwork?

Well your problem of signature verification can be solved by turning it off in recovery (clockworkmod). To do this go to "install update from zip" in that menu should be a option to turn signature verification off. Toggle that and flash again
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andresmartin002:
But i am not able to get to clockworkmod.

When i press the back and power I get the Fastboot menu with

Bootloader

Reboot

Reboot boorloader

Power Down

When i select boodloader it does SD card check (for some seconds) and then there is a menu with

Fastbood

Recovery

Clear Storage and simlock.

When I select recovery, it will show the same splash screen (that it is stuck) for 5 secs or so and then shows icon with black phone and red triangle and exclamation mark.

When i then press vol up and power i get to Android System Recovery 2e

Only options there are Reboot system no

Apply Sdcard:update.zip

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe Cache partition.

Am I missing anything?

Hi All,

Anyone know of any news whether we will be getting a ROM Upgrade or a HTC Sense update for the Desire at all?

Thanks

read on a thread somewhere in here that it is coming to desires in december.

Or u could always flash hd rom. Sense hd i mean
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h3llb3nd4:
Patience my friend, it's coming in December ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Dennis_:
Aye December, my guess is it will be included with Gingerbread update.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brandrune:
Yay! Thanks guys, I love this board so much. Maybe it sounds odd, but I hate flashing ROMs rather than using the stock ones. Just feels dirty :P

Awaiting December.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
what have you guys been smoking :eek: there will be no gingerbread or sence update i can guarantee you that
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h3llb3nd4:
You're base for your comment?

(Not sure about Gingerbread though...don't know where that rumour came from)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
experience.... first of all the desire is nearly a year old, waaay to old for htc support in my experience. secondly, htc want us to buy new handsets not keep our old ones, it makes no sence updating old hardware. and finally, the htc legend is only a few months older than our desire and they dont even have froyo yet, so you give me an example of htc supporting year old hardware with new software updates and i will rescind my comments :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h3llb3nd4:
What you say is true, of course hTC would want us to buy the Desire HD & Z, but the Desire is less than 7 months old (announced in April, realeased in May/ June), not 1 year old, that means nearly all Desire users are still bound by their contracts. If hTC was to abandon the Desire, how would their customers feel? that hTC keeps on pushing out new models but leaving the older models to wither & die? I think not...

but only time would tell :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
good point :eek: were all second guessing htc anyway, only they know what devices there going to continue to support :p
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m16:
If the new Sense doesn't come to Desire do you think it'd be possible to at least get HTC's offline Maps app - like they have with other features?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zHk3R:
I bought a Hero when it came - so I know all about HTC not supporting devices. The first update I got for that phone came in June (Eclair).

And the thing about that update was that it came in two packages. It was a ****ty update I didn't use.

It's a fact that HTC doesn't support their own devices. When it comes to the Desire, I'm hoping they won't **** on us again, it's not outdated yet.

Or maybe it is to HTC - Still. I'm going to have this phone for another 9 months so it'd be nice with at least

one

official update.

HTC - "We make new phones for you.

Get rid of the old one, seriously."

Nothing makes me angry than ignorance. This is ignorance of the highest order. The iPhone 3G was released in July 2008 and it's still getting firmware updates. The Desire is barely 7 months old.

Grrrrr!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zHk3R:
The iPhone is an iPhone.

The iPhone was not made by HTC

Apple makes the iPhone

HTC and Apple are not the same

Apple/iPhone - supported.

HTC/Any device - unsupported.

It's not ignorance. It's basic knowledge. HTC doesn't continue supporting devices. Apple might. HTC doesn't.

Then again, that's one of the reasons XDA exists.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
dont call me ignorant, instead educate yourself, the reason even 2g iphones still get firmware updates is so apple can keep the tyrannic grip on what software they use!!! htc dont use this method, and after owning maybe 10 htc devices in the last 10 years, i think i can speak with experience.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Dennis_:
Wasn't really trying to start a rumor. Just that gingerbread is expected from Google 4th quarter and new sense expected December made sense to me that HTC would wait and give one last update together.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h3llb3nd4:
i seriously hope that's the case, but it seems unlikely and I think It'll be up to XDA to get gingerbread onto the Desire...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SterAllures:
It makes me kinda sad to read this. I know it's true and yet I always hope HTC changes their game plan and just support older devices.

I know they want ppl to buy their new devices but why would you buy a HTC you can only use for roughly a half year and then get outdated software.

Why not choose for a Samsung Galaxy S? mayB they have better support for their devices (just an example).

but I hope we all get proven wrong!!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostfan33:
There is a reason because HTC is going to upgrade our Desires. I think HTC want to boost the htcsense.com portal and for this, new sense is required, and what hardware can use new sense? Only Desire. So it’s a way to get a lot of users without waiting the sales of Z and HD
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h3llb3nd4:
no, older phones can also support HTCSense, this can be proven as they announced that all future HTC Android devices will support HTCSense (both Entry level [eg.wildfire type] and Enterprise level [eg. Desire type]). but HTC are holding them off entry level phones as they are stingy and want us to buy more phones from them.:)

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zednaught:
This morning I wanted to install a new rom and for some stupid reason, I forgot my phone was a Vibrant and not a I9000.

The rom installed just fine using Clockwork but once booted into recovery mode, I am unable to use the power button as the select button. Also, the volume up and volume down buttons are reversed. I am guessing that the I9000 has a home button that my phone does not.

Question is this: Is there anyway to get OUT of recovery mode? I tried to connect using adb but my computer could not find the device.

Am I royally fcked?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shehrammajid:
Don't listen to the guys on top...everyone makes mistakes..try going into download mode and flashing "Eugene's froyo that does not brick". After that flash jacs nandroid backup. I would post links but I'm on my phone....you can find the links in the vibrant bible (its one of the stickys in this forum)

Instructions to get into download mode:

Turn phone off

Take out battery

Put battery in

Hold volume up and down and then insert USB cable.

This should take you to download mode.

Then flash the roms listed above in that order through odin (also found in the Bible). Hope this helps...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtc442:
Do as he said above, but also make sure you have odin opened up before plugging in usb to the phone, and make sure you have all the drivers for the phone installed. I fought with odin for about two hours my first time before I finally realized I had to have odin opened first.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zednaught:
Thank you guys so much. Not only does it work but now Froyo is installed!

Like jtc442 stated, Odin must be started before anything will work.

As an aside: The up and down volume buttons are reversed and the splash screen is stuck with I9000. Not a big deal, something to remind me which roms not to use.

Still Alive...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] outllaw:
Well done dude! Mistakes happen, glad you sorted yours out. Those are pretty normal things in froyo as far as i know so its not a ROM issue. If you want a really good ROM I would recommend Bionix ROM, its currently the top dog of Vibrant ROMs

There is a known issue with non-Vibrant froyo ROM's with the reversed buttons, and 3.5 mm jack. As far as the recovery is concerned, I think either home or back button should serve as a select button (on the original Galaxy it is the large home button).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DonutYankee:
Hey folks. Just had a similar case (all fixed now though :) ). In my case, I went from stock JI6 to the Vibrant Hybrid R3 ROM, and was stuck at the Vibrant screen for about half an hour. Decided to ODIN back to JI6, which made it stuck at recovery. Fixed that by using ODIN to go back to 2.1 July stock and then back to JI6. What is it that caused the two soft-bricks in the first case? (For the record, I followed instructions to the letter) Just wondering.

EDIT: I suspect I misinterpreted the term "stock." I assumed stock meant a T-Mobile ROM, not specifically the ROM that shipped with the phone. Was that the issue in the above incident?
