device.exe problem

Hi everybody
Many times, after powering on my HTC, I get this message : " There was a problem with device.exe".
Since then, the device is blocked
At this point, the only way to unblock it is with a soft reset.
Any idea to solve this problem ?
Thanks

Hopefully this is a software related bug. What applications have you installed, maybe it is some kind of incompatibility. Did you already did a hard-reset?
Otherwise you should try to flash a cooked rom, or at least the latest official rom.

i get this problem sometimes as well but only after ive used coreplayer 1.2.5

It could be, I have Core Player 1.2.5 installed too.

I have Coreplayer 1.whatever too.
also, I've been noticing problems with cprog.exe and services.exe along with device.exe.

i had the self same problem.. but i dunno where it came from. it happened a few hours after i bought it, i barely had any apps on there...
i just disabled the error message ^^ phone works fine though...

I have gyrator installed,that's true... but I always close it(it is shutdowned) every time,so I think it cannot influence other active programs...so these errors should have other causes

help for me
i had the problem too. When i made a hardreset after the configuration of the device, the phone will configure the data connection. At this point i cancelled and configured the data connection myself.
At this point the problem with device.exe was gone.

Data connection / device.exe issue
Hi, a while abck i had some problems with services.exe crashing frequently. Even after a hard reset the problem persisted and there was nothing i could do to resolve it. However over time the error stopped occuring.
Now I am having a different issue. A few days ago i started to get a problem with my data connection, it would show as being active and connected but it would not send or receive any data at all. Tried this using Opera and google maps wouldnt download anything. The rpoblem would be disappear after a soft reset but then after the phone went to sleep and awoke it would re-appear.
Now i have started to get frequent device.exe crashes and after this happens my data connection stops working alltogether until i soft reset. But then the program will crash a variable amount of time later. I have not installed anything recently since this started happening. There doesn't seem to be any pattern to the crashes like I have read about on other threads, it has happened while watching the youtube app, browsing the web or simply waking up the phone and having the error report waiting for me.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions from what I have described? I am a bit unwilling to Hard Reset as this did nothing for my previous errors and having read other articles on device.exe errors this did not help others.
Thanks for any help!

device.exe
Same thing for me. Sometimes the data icon appear grayed. When activesync try to connect, device.exe crashed.
The only solution I found is to install addintimer and program task \windows\replog.exe /remote/all/h
Not very elegant but it works. Bug appeared after I updated ROM with official HTC Rom

MOD EDIT
I've merged 2 threads as both on same topic

After doing more reading i found that people on other winmo devices were getting this error on wakeup due to a problem with GPS.
After racking my brains thinking what could cause it i remembered i had lattitude on google maps. Since i've disabled this *touch wood* i've had no more crashes.

spoke to soon. device lasted 2 days instead of a few hours though.. progress at least :/

Same prob here....
Cant turn on wifi, bluetooth and cant connect via usb. Soft and hardreseted also flashed with its preinstalled orange firmware(ofcourse done with sd flashing). Same problems all time.
Is it hardware or software related???
BR

i have same problem but it appeared after hard reset and with out any installs

Everytime error device.exe..
Every connection to pc it shows device.exe error.
I think its hardware

[Q] Wifi isn't turning on/ not working properly

So i remember that i just rebooted my device and next thing i know is, wifi is stuck with 'WiFi is turning on'
Things i have tried to fix it : factory reset, hard reset and when none worked, paid a visit to lg service centre where it started working automatically. Came home, worked just fine but for 2 days.
Now it's been a week. I even flashed stock rom thinking it might be 4.4 rom issue. And nnope. Sane issue. So i guess that means is isnt software issue.
BUT here's what happens. Same modem, mother's galaxy mega2 connects, her laptop connects. I today tried connecting my phone to her phone's hotspot and it connected in first try. Confusion is, i don't know if it's modem that's faulty or phone ( idk if software or hardware )
Also, i noticed when i try to turn on wifi now, it shows no connection available and the wifi icon in drop down menu keeps blinking without being blue. I think it should just turn blue even if there if no wifi to be detected. Sometimes it stops blinking and doesnt turn blue still
It's so confusing
Any help will be much appreciated !

hi, it has almost been two years, did you fix the problem meantime?

WiFi unable to turn on

So this morning my WiFi was working just as usual. But after that I went out so I turned it off and when I return home, my WiFi isnt working anymore. Its not that it wont work completely, but it keeps connect and disconnect. I just can't use it. After an hour I'm going out again so I turned off the WiFi. I was so annoyed by what happened so I decided to play with the WiFi toggle. Guess what, it wont turn on. When I tapped on the toggle it slides to the right remained greyed out, and stucks there. It will not turn on. I rebooted it many times, it worked for about a second then it stops working again. I tried to find out if it was software problem or what, I rebooted several times, disabled root, reflashed ROM, cleared cache, but it still wont work. I even factory reset it by clearing data and caches and reflashed my ROM but it still wont turn on.
Then just now I did a few Google and found out it may be hardware problem and many solved the issue by whacking it at the back. I tried it it worked for a second and the problem comes back again. Then I suddenly remembered that I heard some shaky sound from the upper part of the phone when I shake it. I noticed the sound long time ago but I didnt bother. And I did some sports this morning with my phone in my pocket so I think its the wifi antenna contacts.
Okay assuming it wasn't a hardware problem, is there anything I can try to be more sure that it's a software fault? I did factory reset from recovery. And is that shaky sound a hardware bug or it's normal?
Update: I can't turn on Bluetooth too so it's definitely a hardware problem since they share the same antenna. More over I saw this line in logcat thus making me more sure it's the antenna

Yes it's hardware.

Bluetooth problem - Sometimes it doesn't work at all

Hey, the Bluetooth option doesn't work for me sometimes and sometimes it works well, when It doesn't work it happens when I try to click on the Bluetooth button, it seems like starting to work but then just stoping. I tried to find a solution but none on the Internet. Tried to change version, did factory reset.
I'm not sure it is the reason but it happened a few time after I installed a custom rom.
Is anyone have an Idea?

i have similar BLE issues since last week.
i downloaded today the BLE Crash Resolver, BLE seems to be a bit more stable.
I am still looking for a more permanent solution though.

I have the same problem, suddenly bluetooth stops working, and hangs Radio FM, I need to restart to solve it, and some times works fine a little bit or all day, it's weird. It's start since last week too, I asume some upgrade maybe?

any solution?

Wifi stop working in sleep and after waking up

Hi, im having this problem for a while, and some other phones are showing this problem also (here)
in summary, phone connect to WiFi, works great, turn screen off, put phone down, and after a while, phone is now unreachable. can't connect to it if i have a ftp server on it for example, can't connect on whatsapp on the PC cause it need the phone connected to work, messages won't arrive, or arrive after 15 minutes of delay.
if i pick up the phone, unlock, WiFi does not work, it keep showing only the "up" arrow and no "download" arrow. can't connect to internet, can't connect to local PC (VNC for example) nothing works. after 30 seconds or so, it comes back, and internet works. sometimes it does not. disabling WiFi and enabling again, everything works fine. if put to sleep, everything start again.
the weird thing is, usually after update to a new version of MIUI (for example, the last 12.0.5.0 a few weeks ago) the problem goes away for a few days. always works great, every time, no problems. a few days later, the problem appears again.
tried everything i could find, no option helped, tried even disabling magisk/xposed, etc, to make sure no "mod" was causing it, nothing.
my only options now are formatting and starting from 0 or try another ROM, like LineageOS, but i'm trying to avoid cause i have tons of customized apps, bunch of banking apps, and everything works fine, except for this one problem.
any help appreciated!
PS: during the whole time, the wifi do not get "disconnected", it remains connected but not working. also tried different routers, no change. using only 2.4ghz.

I installed Lineage OS, the problem didn't show up anymore.
installed all the apps previously installed, everything still working fine for over a week.
I guess was just software related...
