Try using a different kernel. I had the exact same issue as you and I found out that my phone doesn't work with any kernels that screw around with the CPU settings. I would suggest using Hastarin R8 or 7.7 Alt. If that doesn't work, try using the kernel from THIS build. Basically, try a bunch of them. One just might work.

Ok so my battery died all the way to 0% before I could toss it back on the charger after a full days use. No big deal.

I plugged it in the charger, powered it back up and strangely my HD2 froze within 30 sec of booting into Sense. Strange.

So I rebooted and same problem. And the again and again about 10 times consistently.

30 sec is barely enough time to backup and settings or files to do a hard reset and restore an old back up file. So I unfortunately had to backup to an older backup from a month ago :(

Figure this would obviously solve the issue and worst case lose some recent texts and appointments. Well the freezing is somehow still there! I REALLY don't want to do a hard reset and start over from scratch.

Anyone know a possible fix? I searched before asking as usual but not much luck..

Hi

Ive suddenly started experiencing SENSE problems in the last two days also. I havent tweaked or installed anything for months. My battery didnt die though.

If i switch of SENSE it works fine, with Sense on it takes forever to do anything. Im planning to hard reboot it soon, but your experience seems doesnt fill me with confidence. are you on tmobile uk?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyGizzle:
I've also experienced what OP has. Ran my battery completely empty. Let it charge for some time and switched it on later in the day. After some time (a few minutes, I think) the phone was extremely slow. Sense froze completely, but I could navigate the start menu etc, although very slowly.

A soft reset didn't change anything.

I disabled Sense (which was cumbersome, to say the least). Let the phone stay on with charger plugged in overnight. The next day it was good again.

Strange thing!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Towserspvm2000:
Check for errors on your phone/sd card - sounds like you might have a corrupt file somewhere. I had one on my sd card and it gave me a massive battery drain. I deleted it and everything was back to normal.

Just link your phone to the pc, select the either drive through active sync, right mouse button and select "error checking" from "tools".
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ansaar99:
Hi

Ive had some luck on my freezing SENSE problem, not entirely sure if it may fix yours but this is how mine resolved. It was basically down to the issue where for some reason the phone switched its date back to 2009. i have a YAHOO email account configured, and given that the phone thought the date was 2009, it decided to download all emails since that date (headers at least). And I have a LOT! I just looked at the inbox, and it was huge. I only have the thing setup to check for new mails every 4 hours or so, so it doesnt resync so often. Anyway, i have forced it to check for new email now, and it has deleted all the hundreds (if not thousands) of old headers.

Now sense is working perfectly fine again. phew!

Perhaps the battery drain caused your system date to reset, and maybe you have emails setup to download from an external mail account? worth checking.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyGizzle:
Had this issue again last night, although the battery was about 80% full.

Soft reset didn't change anything. I tried disabling Sense and soft reset. Didn't change anything either.

Did as last time; plugged in the charger and left the phone on over night (with Sense off). Today it was fine again. Enabled Sense and still smooth.

Date is correct, though, as opposed to ansaar99. Considering it was really slow even though Sense was disabled suggests this is a WM issue. Couldn't find any process that was hogging resources either; 90% CPU spent on Idle process; the rest used by task manager.

Haven't had the chance to check for corrupt files on the SD card (as suggested by Towserspvm2000).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyGizzle:
Same thing happened last night again.

This time I tried both disabling Sense, and removing the SD card. Removing the SD card should solve the problem if it was because of a corrupt file. It didn't :(

I think I'm seeing a pattern though; this seems to happen roughly around midnight. Yesterday (or actually, today) I noticed it at 00:24. I didn't record the time on the other occurances, but it was around midnight.

So, could it be that WM by default does something 'scary' around midnight?

i can't for the life of me find this ring tone, and i don't remember what rom it was on but it was the default ringer once the rom was flashed.

it was kinda like a hip hop/techno song with only music at the beginning and what sounded like bass hits. if i remember right, towards the end of the ringtone there was singing but i could never make out what the words were haha.

i know this is prob a long shot, but anyone know what ring tone it is? i've looked through the last few roms i've used but can't seem to find it.

I have Jac's OC/UV Voodoo running Bionix 1.1 Fusion. I think i have the one with the gay hardware vibrant that can't be overclocked because everytime i overclock it to 1.2 ghz on SetCPU...the phone gets into like a soft reboot where the home screen refreshes. I had the larger NAND and used a trick by Master to install Voodoo fine but...I was wondering is there a fix for installing Overclocking on every Vibrant? Why can't all phones be overclocked? I mean there all the same parts and stuff...I really want the 1.6ghz OC but it crashes...Any help or suggestions?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OccamsToothbrush:
Because it won't run above spec? If it was having problems at 1 GHz on the stock ROM, sure, get a replacement. But if it's not handling something *it wasn't designed to handle,* why should your warranty provider have to pay for that?

I mean, sure, it sucks that not all Vibrants can handle the OC, but that kind of variation is normal and expected with semi-conductors chips.

[HD2 General] mknewman:
I have upgraded to the 3.14 stock T-Mo ROM and am having problems with both of these apps.

Visual Voicemail never worked, said my account was not set up, but recently I saw on my T-Mo account page that I could activate this for free. I did so, but it still does not work, voicemail still goes to the standard T-Mo message and after I leave a message I get 2 garbage looking text messages. It looks like something that needs to be in place is not.

I also cannot get My Account to work. When I run it, it comes up saying "the My Account application will be downloaded shortly" but never finishes.

Any idea about these?

Thanks

[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
what's funny is that I just called t-mobile about it and they told me that updating my ROM to the new 3.14 would fix my voicemail. Go figure.

So can someone on the new stock 3.14 tmous ROM verify that visual voicemail is still broken?

I called T-mobile, and they made me do a hard reset (for nothing it turns out) The latest update, while doing many great things, breaks visual voicemail for a lot of people. I actually had visual voicemail working fine before this update.
[HD2 General] misterlim:
damn that sucks :/ guess we'll just have to wait until another update rolls in. if that ever happens...also on an unrelated topic when i first updated to 3.14 i had a little app in the start menu that showed how much ram, rom, battery, and cpu ect i had/using...but it magically disappeared from my phone..anyone else had this issue or have seen this app? i don't know what it was called since i only launched it once before it vanished, just thought it was cool and convenient.
[HD2 General] NWWADD:
Fill the call centers

I am personally a little pissed off at T-Mobile. I think each of us should call them 2 to 3 times a day and fill the call center.

I have called many times already.... The last call they blamed it on Microsoft lmao....

There isn't a estimated fix date and one tech agent said they didn't think they would even fix it...

The only solution I got from multiple agents was to buy another 500$ none Microsoft phone.

Fill the call centers with calls.
[HD2 General] nrfitchett4:
it's amazing how little t-mobile employees like microsoft. They are definitely sucking android's sack over there.

It's not the call centers fault that vvm doesn't work, and it doesn't work for any hd2 anymore. I'm not sure it will ever get fixed, kinda like facebook.
[HD2 General] moonchaser:

[Droid X General] sfreemanoh:
OK, I've been having miscellaneous and very annoying problems with my phone ever since I updated to 2.2 OTA (I wasn't rooted before, I am now as of just a few days ago, and still running stock 2.2), so I want to wipe the phone to get it back to "factory" 2.2 and start over. I've already backed up my installed apps using Titanium, and I also installed AppBrain, so it should (if I understood the product description correctly) be able to download any non-purchased apps as well.

My question is, should I just do a Factory Data Reset (settings, privacy, factory data reset), or should I do something else in place of or in addition to that?
[Droid X General] gmenfan83:
Ok if you have not done any flashing of any roms then I would unroot via however you rooted and do a full data cache wipe and factory reset ....if you have flashed roms or just want to be safe you can always reflash the sbf using these links and instructions

Thanks, I actually just bit the bullet earlier today and did a factory reset. Some of my widgets didn't reload correctly for some reason, so it took me a while to try to remember what each of them actually were...but other than that, after I re-rooted and restored everything via Titanium Backup, it seems to be working OK. Hopefully the various problems I was having before the reset won't come back!
[Droid X General] gmenfan83:
Well since most of your problems were more than likely 2.2 related then they may come back but let's hope not .....maybe you should look into a good asop rom or.some of the others and you will more than likely experience far less problems if you go with a nicely built rom
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mb02:
I have just gone through 4 sd cards, all of different brands, about to get my 5th so I figured I give a little insight on class ratings, cost and brands of microSD to help people deciding on which to buy.

The comparisons are among a Sandisk 16GB class 2, Sandisk 2GB class 2, PNY 4GB class 4 and RiDATA 16GB class 6.

Somewhat surprisingly, both of the Sandisks performed significantly better than the other 2 SD cards. My standard transfer rates to and from these were averaged at 4.5 to 5 MB/s, whereas the PNY was typically 2MB/s and the highest I saw was 3.2MB/s, while the RiDATA was actually the worst at consistent 1.9-2.2 MB/s. While the cheapies (PNY, RiDATA, Komputerbay, etc.) seem appealing at a sometimes lower price, they definitely do not perform anywhere near as well as Kingston and Sandisk, which seem to perform above and beyond their specs. Funny thing is I have been seeing the higher end sd cards from the cheap brands, like 16GB class 4 and up, being the same price as Kingston and Sandisk. I am about to receive my next SD, a Kinston 16GB class 4, and have seen nothing but great ratings on as well and is rated by consumers to have a consistent transfer rate of at least 6MB/s. I have also seen reviews on the Transcend SD cards having the same issues as these other low grade brands, but the reviews are definitely mixed because some people report having "quick transfer rates", but I have never used one of these so I cannot say for myself what is true of these.

But in my conclusion, unless you are getting a Sandisk or Kingston, you will be disappointed to find that the card you bought is definitely not even worth a class 2 rating most of the time.

I know some will probably say "Well so-and-so did a speed test on such-and-such card and it did well on it." Well, those do not apply to real world situations where someone is actually transferring differentiating amounts of data to/from the card so I couldn't give a crap about those anymore. I personally have used many SD cards and watched the transfer rates of each one, differing from transferring anywhere between 30MB to 10GB at a time and seen the same transfer rates in each of these cards.

So do not be swayed or fooled by the seductive price and "high rating" of the low brand microSDs, spend a couple extra dollars and get what you're paying for.

I just bought me a Transcend 16gb class 6 microsd card and I gotta say the thing is blazing fast. Taking pictures is instant now instead of getting a slight lag I got with the stock 2gb class 2 card, also downloading file attachments is instantanious, before I would be stuck on the fetching attachment screen for what seemed like forever. I highly recommend this card to anyone looking to upgrade.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] earthtodigi:
I am so glad to see this thread, I have been trying to do some detailed research on microsd card comparison lately, but its hard to find anything other than people saying "oh yeah this card is fast" etc, but no real detail. Now I got my new card and am having major problems with it.

I've been using an 8gb Sandisk class 6 for about a year or so, but needed a 16, so after much indecision, I decided on the Transcend 16gb Class 6 after reading some decent reviews on newegg. I received it today and immediately ran some benchmarks on it to compare to my Sandisk, and at first I was impressed.

Sandisk 8gb Class 6 microsd

Transcend 16gb Class 6 microsd

Even though the Sandisk was beating it on the small files, real world performance was great, until I put the Transcend into my phone. For some reason it drags my phone to a crawl, and if I do something that needs alot of access to the card, the phone will completely freeze and require a battery pull. I have tried formatting in the PC, formatting in the phone, I am at a loss and I don't know what the problem could be. It's so slow it can't even play music without skipping. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mb02:
I was reminded recently that HTC lags up write/read when the sd card is in the phone (bogs down the read-ahead speeds). Ziggy's kernels have a fix coded in to correct this. And with his current new release of kernels that run at stock speed with some light undervolt, I suggest everyone switch to his kernels.

Also, small file read/writes is a little slower on larger SD cards compared to smaller ones. Allocation unit size somewhat plays a role in this as well.

EDIT: I also recommend always formatting through PC and never with phone. The phone format option is defaulted at formatting in FAT rather than FAT32, which can cause issues (i.e. flashing PB31IMG.zip in hboot etc.). Plus you can control the format better on a computer anyways.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] N-Forced:
earthtodigi did you format the card to fat32? I have the exact same card and its running great, no slowdown at all.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] earthtodigi:
Yes I've formatted it FAT32 in the computer, and in the phone. Tried changing the allocation size as well. I plan to try ziggys kernel just to see, but I don't see why the stock kernel would cause such issues.

What's really weird is, I got two card speed test apps from the market, and on both of them, it outperforms my Sandisk card while in the phone. On one of the test though, it shows 14 Mb/sec write speed, but only 5 Mb/sec read speed, which I assume is the read-ahead issue reportedly fixed by the kernel.

One of the reviews on newegg for this card, the person says they had trouble getting their incredbible to recognise the card, but after they formatted it they had no issues.

I'll let ya know how the kernel goes here in a little bit.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] setexascustoms:
+1 for Sandisk. I have their 16 GB Class 2 and it consistantly does 5 MB/s.

[Droid Incredible Accessories] earthtodigi:
Okay, so I'm not sure what happened today, but I formatted the card, copied everything over, and put it back in the phone, and everything is just fine. I was still getting the low read speeds, but now I tried Ziggy's kernel and all is well. All apps seems to be running smooth, haven't had a hiccup yet. I'm still worried that the gremlins may return, and the card may be flaky, but for now, its smoking fast.
