XDA Mini keeps hard resetting - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

Hi,
My fisrt time here and i need help. My mini keeps doing hard resets almost 3x a day. been doing back ups on a daily basis.
Tried using it with only the factory loaded softwares but still the same thing happens. Tried replacing my sd card too.
Thanks.

How old is your device? What about your battery?

It can happen because You have "not so good" Rom image.
Try flashing a new Rom (older first like 1.01) and if it doesn't happen again try upgrading to a recent one.
It usually occurs when something was badly copied during flashing proces.

Phone hangs at white HTC Boot screen?

Hi all, I suddenly have problems flashing roms and installing cabs...
This is the case with Dutty's rom, kumars rom and a few others (topix). They install fine but after installing my applications and restoring my pim data it hangs in the white boot screen (with the HTC text and red info about rom, radio and such in the bottom left).
Even after hard resetting this seems to be the case. It boots sometimes normally, sometimes it hangs on the orange windows screen, but in the end after setting up most of the stuff hanging on the white screen again. I haven't changed any cabs since my previous roms. Could apps be the cause of these issues?
Have flashed tons of roms already, mostly SSPL and since a day or 2 I installed HSPL to do the flashing. Could that have anything to do with it? Have been using this phone for a month and a half I think without any problems.
Going to flash one last time for tonight (work calling again in a few hrs :/) and only restore pim data to see how that goes...

Maybe your card is kind of "critical", making the flash kind of bad?
Didn´t have any issues with either Dutty´s, nor with topix...

Hmmm, my card? I flash from the pc... No card is used, also flashed the last time without sd card in it.
I also have flashed topix and dutys before and had no problems at all, I suddenly got issues after flashing Kumars rom (not blaming it! Plenty of ppl very happy with it!) and after that the same with others...
Meh, waiting for the sms-hotfix to finish installing now. Just finished flashing again and restoring data (and installing a few cabs). Hopefully I can actually start using it again, at least until the weekend.
I think what he means is try to reformat your card. Even though you flash with PC some of the newer HTC Sense with Documents tab write and read data from the storage card. If it is corrupted or bad it can cause a lot of problems.
I have had this happen twice in the past and the format cleared the problem.

Ah ok, haven't installed the versions with the document tab though but worth a try I guess.
Otherwise I'll reflash the Turkish 1.61 WWE (or was it the t-mobile 2.01 version) rom again and reflash roms from there. Perhaps I'll flash with the SSPL again to see if that makes a difference.
Phone still working for now, hardly installed anything and just restored pim data. Guess I'll leave it like that for now :/
Hmmm, I now flashed a firmware using the SD card method and that seems to have worked fine... Hope it's fixed now.

I encounter similar problem like you did .....

So end up I have to flashed the new ROM again.

How do you go about reformating the microSD? Reformat from HD2 or from PC?

This has been happening to me quite frequently. I am not sure why this is happening. I am flashing Stock ROM and try to flash the Cooked ones.
I DO NOT want to go the Mitty way and screw up my device if something goes wrong. So I hope the Stock flash would help me this time around. I just flashed the 1.66 Stock ROM and am planning to flash Dutty's 1.3 WWE to see how it goes. Hope this would fix the issue.
I guess my device is taking the hit with the ROM flashings. Got to rest my baby with a stable ROM for a while.

MTTY is a mess. do not touch it.
flashing a stock ROM didn't helped me. maybe the SD card is to blame...hope so!

Excellent choice. This is what I did to refresh my HD2 from all the flashing in the past 4 days:
1. Flash back to the Shipped ROM (hopefully you have a copy of the shipped ROM, someone posted a link to the thread here somewhere)
Important!!! Make sure you have the RIGHT Shipped ROM. I made a mistake thinking my ROM was WWE Europe when it was WWE Asia. Got an error flashing (since it was looking for the right CID, etc.) but I got it sorted out. (I couldn't even get to the white htc splash... only bootloader mode)
2. Flashing to the shipped ROM apparently triggers a "task 28" like MTTY state, restoring your HD2 to stock (formatting, etc.)
3. Now that your back to Stock, re-run HSPL
4. Download you favorite Cooked ROM and start Flashing like Day 1
Optional Step 5. When you've found the ROM you plan to stick with Then my customizations begin (Manila tweaks, Reg Tweaks, App Tweaks, App Installs, etc.) (I am currently on a very stable Cooked ROM... YMMV of course...)
Optional Step 6. Backup using SPB or Sprite and keep backup handy so when I need to reflash or hard reset (assuming its the same ROM or maybe a slight upgrade) I just run my backup and get back up and running in no time.
Happy Flashing everyone!

endless reboot cyle

Hello
The HD2 is great but:
After installing a few programms (no matter which ones)
my HD2 gets into a reboot cycle.
I then have to hard reset to get the HD2 working again.
A few installations later I get the next reboot cycle.
What can I do?
I have tried 3 different cooked ROMS, but it's always the same.
Thanks best wishes Uli
think you´ve tried to flash an official Rom ?
Read HERE and follow the steps. You've installed a few custom ROMs before it happened right? Its because installing custom ROMs on top of each other can lead to errors that can cause problems like hard reset cycles. MTTY formats the storage before you flash your ROM making a nice clean canvas to write on to.
reboot cycle
Hello optiknerv
Thanks for your reply!
I had this problem from the very first ROM I flashed.
best wishes Uli
That happened to me too...
Take the battery out.
Take the memory card out.
Replace the battery and boot to the Today screen.
Put your memory card back in.
Should work fine.
It might be something to do with a recently installed app on the Storage Card, so remove those you've loaded lately and reinstall to Device?
I think it would help that before you flash a custom ROM you must flash first the stock one from which the custom was made and always perform two hard resets.

Problems at Call Status Screen

When i make a call, for some reason the screen locks up and doesnt allow me to press any buttons. the only way for me to hang up the phone is to press the actual call end button. Does any one know wat the deal is with this..
Hi, It's a good idea to say if you are using a stock or cooked ROM and mention the version as it can siometimes be relevent. Also, has it ever worked or did it stop working after you installed an application? When you put the phone to your ear when in a call does the screen go blank then come back on when you take it away from your ear? Do you have any "Slide down fro more options" text on the screen? This is a Microsoft base so soft and hard resets do sometimes help
Regards.
Im using the stock rom that comes on the Tmobile USA HD2. I dont recall if it was working before I loaded any programs on to it. The screen does turn black when I put it to my face but none of the button work.
Are you using BSB? I had a similar problem. Took me hours to work out what it was.
BSB? I dont know what that is but ive decided to just flash in a custom rom later on today. My battery drains too fast and that freezing isnt helping so i might as well get something that better utilizes this hardware
am having same problem - NEED TWEAK
when I'm on the phone I can't push any buttons. today is the first time I've been using the phone, so I can't tell if it was happening before I installed anything. help, please....
I'm just using the tmobile installed rom not cooked one.

Have you tried doing a soft reset (red button inside device - HTC tech support told me taking the battery out for 10 seconds does the same thing though).
OK, if you can't tell if it was happening before you installed any additional applications / utilities.try unistalling everything you have installed. If that doesn't work try doing a hard (factory) reset, that will reset you phone to factory defaults (back up texts etc. first). It might be quicker doing a factory reset first actually. Details are in you manual (well at least in the Euriopean manual). Here is a link to details oi how to do soft and hard reset for the HD2. http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_hd2_leo_hard_reset_soft_reset_en.html.
Try it after a factory reset before you install anything else. If it still doesn't work you might have a faulty unit.
Hope this helps.

OK. Have a look at the ROM section of XDA and see if this is a known issue with that ROM. You could flash back to a stock ROM and see if it it no longer functions, showing a coincidental fone failure requiring a warranty fix.

Thanks for all your help got it sorted now
I flashed a different rom and it worked, so i flashed it again to the EnergyRom and that worked. It must have been a bug.. Glad its sorted now as it was annoying me..
did hard reset, and reinstalled everything, piece by piece. problem has not reoccurred and it's not locking up (for now). thanks.
Problem fixed
I just flashed my TMO USA HD2 to the NRG rom and its working faster and better than ever.

Sense won't work anymore!

heey guyz,
As written above, my problem is that my htc HD does not support Sense anymore!
I've tried several ROMS and a lot of Chefs but all had the same result at the end!
The Problem:
When I flash a rom (with sense) the first time it works perfectly, but after one reset it sticks at startup screen and does not show the sense app, I only can get into the start menu.
This is what I already tried:
-Tried several roms, kitchens, chefs, restaurants etc
-Tried flashing with 3x hardreset after complete
-Tried Task29
-Tried to shut off the sense app and switch to WM standard home screen but this gives the same result after 4 or 5 days (currently using energy ROM no problems with WM standard home screen but with the sense)
Please any solution? I need help as fast as possible cuz I'm going on vacation the 9th for almost 6 weeks and I don't want a crappy phone!!
sorry for my bad bad English!
john.smith said:
Hi Op, I tried flashing again and this time without SIM and memory card, and it worked.
However when I inserted back the memory card again it stuck in launching Sense 2.5.
So yes, it appears to be either the memory card, or the card slot causing issue. I will try to figure out which has made the freezes.
Good luck with yours.

Well, I guess he's already on his vacation. Maybe it's not all that bad, we all spend too much time on our phones anyway... Might just clear some time for him to enjoy the vacation
Anyway, I'd try to flash a 1.56 stock rom first using the official HTC tool and then try again. That might help.

Please help :-( My phone is in boot loop??? (bricked???)

Folks,
I was playing around with the roms and BAM
My phone wont start anymore, it keeps hanging on the Android logo from Kyrillos 7.
I tried flashing other roms, but there's no help here...
Help...
Please
May the phone gods be with me........ 8-0
I'm still able to get in the download, so I guess he's not totaly bricked, right????
factory reset from recovery and reboot it might take a while.

problem is that it keeps hanging in the ANDROID logo that shines, then suddenly stops, and resets this logo and it all starts all over, very strange...
I'm also able to install the Destiny Rom, and it boots well, but after xxx minutes this version also locks....
I had no problems with K7 OC before (only it locked after restart some days later, that was the prob)
How can I completely reset my phones internal memory?
Could this be unrepairably damaged?
SOLVED !
I can sleep good now !!!!
sorry, I panicked, because I tried several times and nothing worked.
Thanks for the advice !
(can I delete this topic?)
could you explain your solution?

Of course
I formatted with Pc software at first.
I got many times locked at startup (mostly after installing programs, so the phone needs access to the SD)
I installed K7, then flashed the G3rom into it.
And then, most important:
I formatted the SD card from within the Clockwork Manager CWM.
Of course, this erased both partitions (so make backup), but at least now it works
Do you have similar problems?
no, not yet... but maybe it'll help in future & others & just curious... where's the tnx button in this app?
