Hi there,
I have a HTC trinity with the hellboy rom on, Just randomly today it has started restarting in a loop, it won't go into windows, it gets the Unlock button appearing but then goes straight back to the begining , I have no clue as what is wrong but I can't use my phone atm. Its really annoying and I don't want to have to go back to an LG viewty. Does anyone have any ideas as to what is wrong?
I don't have a clue what might be happening, but did you try to hard reset the device? You do have a backup, don't you?
Yeah I do
I do have a backup, and have tried a hard reset, However I have managed to get it loaded, All I had to do was leave it restarting, it has taken a couple of hours. Its a really wierd problem, I am gonna keep an eye on it and see if it does it again. I'll keep people abridged of my issue in-case no one has had this 1 before.
Cheers for the reply

just so anybody who has the same problem as me, I fixed this by warming the phone up, I believe it was damp/moist inside, I had just been in a steamy location just before I had this problem.

Hi all.
I've had my Trinity for 3 years now, and all of a sudden, the phone keeps doind hard resets without notice.
I tried to install a different ROM, even a 6.5 one, but this problems keep happening.
Any idea what's the problem??
Thanks in advance.
Anyone??? no one had a problem like this before?
me too
OK,
now I have the same problem.
Screen suddenly get black with backlight on. Only option then is taking the battery out or wait until it's out of power. When this happens, Trinity will start fully reseted next time with every data on on it loss.
And yes, this happens over and over again, so you can really call it some kind of loop.
Good news however, that flashing new ROM would be almost wasted time.
Then it would be even dangerous whilest this happens on flashing.
Also I feel that it does not happen when all automatic power saving options are deactivated. Maybe it happens while switching the backlight off?!
Do you have SIM-Lock? Because I still have and GPS also not installed with oldest Win5 Rom ever (caught on ebay )
Any solution?
Thanks for every idea.
EDIT: I found also this threat beneath. This problems might be of same value.:

I experinced same problem anda discovered that was caused by using my blouetoth headset... stop use that device and nevermore have the problem... i'v heard here thiss issue..
I do not know if I had already said, but for me it worked with the procedure I linked in my last post. Say it was the screen plug inside. It sounds like botch but I have not had any problems anymore
Hey guys and gals, any help would be appreciated because I'm at a loss.
My sons Mogul was working fine for about 3 months now, but last week it started doing something weird.
First problem is that when it goes into sleep mode, it won't come back out, he has to soft reset it every time.
Second issue is sometimes when he soft resets the phone, it will just go into a reboot loop several times until it would finally start properly. The reboot thing would happen sometimes out of nowhere too.
Any ideas on this? Anyone ever run into these issues together and figured it out? I'm really about to throw in the towel because I've searched and only found issues that were partially like mine but nothing dead on like this. I tried reflashing it with the same ROM that's been on there working this whole time but that didn't help.
My noobish, random shot-in-the-dark guesses:
-maybe it's power related, a different battery might help, and/or eyeball the power contacts for dust/corrosion. Colder weather could have exacerbated this issue.
-moisture related, drying out for a day or so in a warm/dry location may help. Dissassemble as much as practical, at least pull the battery & slide out the keyboard.
Good luck & let us know what you find.
Hi,
For the second time in 3 weeks, my phone has refused to resume from hibernation.
I had to remove/replace the battery to have it back to life
Any clue/correction for that ?
Cheers
I had the same issue after installing SPB Keyboard demo. The phone did not go beyond the (white) HTC) screen, after reboot. Hard reset was the only way out. Hope you backed up your data.
Have a look through this thread. I'm not sure if they've found a solution yet, but it sounds like the same problem to me...

Happened to me today twice already. Als had to remove nd re-place battery to get it started again. Anyone else experienceing this?
got same problem
happens at least once a day
I'm having some serious issues with my phone. This morning the battery was suddenly drained completely, don’t know why yet. Then after charging the phone a bit and rebooting it, it constantly goes into driving mode and starting the voice command application. The most strange thing however is that when I choose to power off the phone, it shuts down but then automatically reboots.
I know I should try factory reset, but anyone else had this problem?
(I have original firmware and the phone isn't rooted)
EDIT:
Doing a hard reset seems to have solved the problem.
Maybe your power button is broken (constantly pressed)? Did the phone get wet?
I have not heard of this. I've heard of bootloops and the phone rebooting when trying to power off but thats usually due to custom roms and people flashing over other custom roms which causes conflict. I think factory reset may be the only option. However, with the Galaxy S there used to be a way to get into safe mode. I beleive you'd hit the menu button as soon as you saw the Galaxy S boot logo. I haven't heard of a safe mode yet for SGS2 but perhaps someone can confirm if its available in this model?
If you can still get into settings of the phone when its on, I'd try going into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications and clearning data for voice commands
It almost seems as though your phone is registering home button being clicked thereby turning voice mode on and also turning it back on after a power off.

Hi,
I was have exactly same problem, reset don't resolve my issue.
Solution was to replace my phone.
Thanks for the help, gonna try factory reset first. But this doesn't look like a software problem, so probably gonna need to replace it

Well this is a strange problem. Is it possible a bread crumb got under your buttons? Or some case is so tight it is pressing on some buttons?
Don't have a case around it, but the power button isn't stuck I think because wouldn't the menu for shutting down the phone etc. appaer constantly? And if it's something under the buttons then it is just bad design, had the phone only a couple of weeks.

I had the same problem mate. And that was exactly what I thought, I actually started a thread on this problem about 2 weeks ago. Was really strange, people told me to take it back. But What I did was factory reset on the phone. Which still didn't completely solve my problem. So I left the battery out the phone over night. The most annoying thing was, the screen kept turning on, like something was being pressed, can't have been the middle button, because the menu would have come up, it didn't do that. And then to make matters worse the tap to speak driving mode kept coming up.
I then took out the battery and left it out over night. Put it back in, in the morning. Charged it up. Didn't do it again.
Hope that helps. Try it.
Ok thanks, I will try it. It is really a strange problem as you say. After the factory reset the problem showed up again but not as often as before. Also after upgrading to latest firmware today, according to the battery monitor android OS is using 45%, that looks really strange to me.
Hi guys, this is my first post here and I hope someone can help me please!!
I got my phone 5 weeks no problem till last night,
basically when I am in screen lock state and then go unlock, I keep getting this anoying WHITE screen which coveres the whole screen and only on the top in narrow blue band it say "wiedges setting" to get out of this, I have to press the return button (on the right ) and it goes away , this happens everytime I go to lock position (after it stays in that position for 5 minutes or more),
Also I noticed even DURING my call after about 5-6 minutes through out the call this white screen appears and it ALWAYS goes away as soon as I press the return button.!!
so please tell me how to get ride of this?
if not, how to reset the phone without losing my apps and data? if I do factory reset is my apps will stay in andriod market, or do they also get deleted?
my phone IS NOT rooted phone.
what can I do, this is really killing me, as its everytimes into my face.
Please help me...
thanks so much
ps. is there any way that I can reset the phone to previously saved version! (3 days ago lets say),?
Sounds to me like an app causing this, as it seems it wants you to alter some settings.
Can you think of any apps you have installed since it started happening? It is usually always the fault of a dodgy app when you have issues.
I am not sure you can restore the phone back 3 days if you havent already done a backup.
Restoring your phone won't necessarily help as you will probably end up re installing the bad app once you are done.
I would try taking off some apps that you installed recently or anything you think might affect the screen.
Good luck and i'm sure someone else will be able to help
Biff.
edit: if it only started last night, is there anything you've installed just before it happened?
