Hi All,
I have a problem where my phone crashes and reboots when I launch an app that uses the camera in any way, for example layar, barcode scanner, camera etc. This only happens in Android 2.1, I've tried various ROMs and always the same issue. I've tested Android 1.5 and there are no problems with that at all.
I've noticed the crashes only occur when I'm on battery power, it never happens when the phone is plugged in so I cannot get logs to see what is going on, unless someone knows a way to get the logs from a crash.
I was wondering if anyone else has seen this problem and if so, if they've found a resolution to it.
Since updating with the OTA 2.1 update I have been experiencing this problem too. Phone reboots when it uses the camera, Layar, Yelp, AugSatNav all seem to cause the problem.
I get this problem too, with the camera, and also sometimes when I put the volume down it freezes and reboots

I've got the same problem. Restarting when launching apps using the camera.. Im glad that's not a HW problem but "only" SW bug.. I hope
It could (and probably is) a radio issue....Happens on the N1 and Desire if you try to use the camera too and seeing as the GPS,Camera both are dependant on the radio id say that is it! Find the radio reccomended with the rom you use and flash it( Beware of orange users being locked down though,you need a specific radio)
Just to add that I'm getting the same problem too running FroydVillain 1.2.2 and baseband 6.35.15.14, should point out that been having the problem for quite a while on a multitude of ROMs :-(
I'm not - did you full wipe?
Multiple wipes...
try 1.3 i guess
I had this problem when I was on stock 2. 1 I would recommend rooting and flashing froydvillain.

Tried multiple ROMs and multiple Radios with no change :-(
Unless theres a second secret wipe button hidden in recovery I don't know what else I can do :-/
try to disable "automatic brightness"...

Hi,
I have had this problem since i went to 2.1 also, i have also flashed several rom's since villainrom 12 and have even used rcmix 1.0b which is a great 2.1 imo.
Have flashed 2.2 roms, and i am still having the same problem.
This is how i can replicate this problem and how it occurs, to the letter.
1.Bring phone out of lockscreen.
2.Open camera.
3.Take pic, in dark or light lighting with brightness on any setting.
4.Save pic.
5.Close camera.
6.Lock phone and wait for 10 seconds.
7.Bring phone out of lockscreen.
8.Open camera.
9.Phones lights all go out and the hero name flashes up onto the screen.
10.Full reboot.
This happens everytime no matter what.
Some things to consider.
The phone will never reboot if it is plugged in to a usb / electric plug Charger and is actually charging.
The phone will remain on and will carry on taking pictures IF you don't close out of the camera the first time around.
No task killer was installed on my phone at the time of this test, although i have had task killers before with the same results.
Lighting effects and brightness can sometimes have an effect on the ratio and probablility of a reboot, with brightness on full in a dark room being the most probable.
I am using the newest froyd rom 1.4.3 although i have tried pretty much every rom out there, I NEVER have this error when i installed a 1.5 rom which does not have apps2sd (weird that) which tells me that it is NOT a hardware fault.
I am using villains no logo kernel 19mhz - 691mhz
63.18.55.06PH_6.35.15.14 Radio
HTC Hero on Orage UK.
IF anybody can shed any light on this rather annoying matter resulting in this problem being erradicated will earn my eternal respect and a big clock. : )

I can confirm that this isn't a bug on every install of 2.1 or 2.1 as I am unable to replicate the issue as described. Also if you've tried mutiple software and the bug is occurring across many that would suggest it is something hardware related or you are not performing a full wipe. Have you tried backing up the data on your sd card and formatting that then putting back only the necessary data (pics / music etc)?

I originally posted this issue and the descriptions from everyone else with the problem match mine pretty much perfectly.
I've taken all info off the sd card and performed a complete wipe of data, ext and davlik before formatting the sd card. I've put the blank SD card (apart from the ROM I'm about to flash) back into the phone and flashed. After config and before any new apps are installed on the phone I launch the camera and within 4 attempts at start the camera the phone will crash. This has happened across every 2.1 ROM I've tried, but doesn't happen on 1.5 ROMs.
Using the stock camera app? Have you tried without installing any of your own apps at all?
This is very odd. No matter what I try I can't get the camera app to crash. Though I am using v2.2 of android. Have you tried official 2.1? Vanilla and Sense?

Yep, it crashes using the stock app.
I've tried a rooted version of the offical but not the actual OTA update. I've not tried vanilla as I don't really want to run vanilla on it.
I've managed to take some logcat logs of the problem happening but there's nothing really specifc happening over a few crashes that would point to anything. .
I'm going to try to unroot my hero and downgrade to stock to start again. Just have to find a way to downgrade my bootloader first so I can put on the original RRU. I tried to downgrade before but got an invalid bootloader error.
The camera crash doesn't really affect me day to day as I don't really use the camera, where it is annoying is it stops you using apps that use the camera like goggles and layar.
Ahh - so its not the camera app that is crashing but other apps too which are using the camera. Very odd.
And FYI - you don't need to touch your bootloader - just change the driver in windows to My HTC instead of HTC Bootloader and the rru will work.

I have formatted and re partitioned my sd card to a T and it still occurs and thats with everytime i install a new rom, i don't use titanium i go the long way around every time and re set up all my programs, I know i can replicate this error like i said and like i also said this does not occur in 1.5 roms.
I have also have this problem with vanilla, modaco's new one, villain rom, rcmix, froyd, it appears that ever since the phone was updated to 2.1 there is a problem when using the camera app.
I have tried to install a rom and replicate the issue without installing any apps at all and it still persists, the only thing i can say is that it doesn't happen when i'm either on 1.5 OR the phone is charging?
It sounds like the the phone is requesting access for use of the camera and then not putting back what it requested in the first place, like a cache or something, and it simply make the phone reboot when it is called upon again.
I don't believe it is a hardware fault, i know this sounds like wishful thinking but the phone does not have this error in 1.5 roms. Thus, it cannot be hardware. Simple!
Also a logcat does not show anything, i was only able to replicate the error once whilst my phone was plugged in, it just won't do it again, and when i posted my findings on villainroms bug report section, a few of the lads still didn't know what it was so i don't know what else to say.
I'm due for an upgrade in October so for me at least it's not that much of a deal but i'm planning on giving this phone to my daughter so it would be good to get it working for her.
Would save me a lot of earache.
If u need to know anything else then please let me know, oh and i am using a class 2 sd card, which i have been unable to change, however just today my girlfriend has just had a class six delivered and her old one will be up for grabs so i will test with that too. Has anyone else tried with multiple cards??? Also how do i find out what boot loader i am using (recover) as maybe the problem resides there.

Thats right, its any app which accesses the camera.
What could be the correlation between connecting the charger and not connecting the charger, could that be a power issue and the battery is delivering too low a power output on it's own to run the camera? Hence it works with the charger plugged in ?? Either way i think that is the only real clue there is to be honest, unless your phones still restart when the phone is plugged in, in which case it's not much use.
Ok I'm using newest energy cht rom radio 2.12.50 and shubcraft froyo android build with 384 zimage....
Heres the problem that I have had all week my phone works fine when I am stationary minimal screen freezes great speed but when I get up and walk with my phone and try to use it the screen freezes almost every time then the entire phone freezes. I have also noticed this on elevator and when I step out of my car.. this is weird and I know it can't be just me as its been going on for a week now.
So to sum it up stationary best phone ever...walking phone dead and I wanna slam it on the ground.

try the desire v5's zimage, no freeze at all
Im having same issues,with all the version i have tried, including V5 aparently this screen freezing is a known issue and makes the use of Android in our HD2 very very frustrating.
ive upgraded my SD to a class 6 and still suffering from it
Im wondering if there is a program that causes it or its just the OS...
in any case We have to be patient ,im sure pretty soon the amazing developers will come with a solution.
might be a screen rotation issue
Just came back from street, again same issue.
I thought it may be the network connection that was affecting the phone, so i switched to Airplane mode and turn off automatic updates,still this didnt help...
so im beginning to think this is related to yes,either the screen rotation (maybe as we walk it does affect the sensor )or gps..

I've just learned to deal. Its better than SoD's or being in Winmo and having to pull the battery out.
I actually noticed it today as I went from a dark room to a very well lit room so Im with u guys it seems its either rotation issue or light sensor issue andvi have no doubt in my mind the devs will have it fixed in no time just didn't see it mentioned anywhere else so figured it was worth a mention. Thanks all I'm so glad I'm not alone on this one.

when in windows mobile make sure to disable all battery and back light settings and in android change blacklight settings and sleep setting to stay on
I am having the same issue - using ChuckyDroidROM + shubCRAFT CM6RC2, basically when I start moving or even moving the phone the touch screen becomes very unresponsive and sometimes even the hardware buttons don't function properly. At first I thought it was just my device until I saw this post...
Think its a bug with manusfreedoms 384mb ram enabled Zimage dident get this problem using past images.
sure it will be sorted next image release.
I thought i was alone in this case too !
We are not a lot with that screen touch lag, so maybe we did something wrong. Here is what i found so far :
-Changing build don't rix the problem
-tried another radio, another rom...nothing.
I tested 27/07 03/08 cotulla zimage, now manufeeedom 382mo zimage-nopc, the problem is still here.
changed from a class 2 to a class 4 and seems to be worse. (!)
You are right, it seems to be worse when i am moving from one room to another so maybe it is gsensor related.
Right now it is hard for me to type that text,
Don't know what to do... buy a class 10 sdcard ?
I just got my HD2 today and got android set up. I'm noticing the same thing as everyone else with the unresponsive touchscreen. It happens every time I tilt the phone to try to change the screen rotation. Usually hitting the hardware button allows it to respond once again, but it happens quite often.
hey hey hey first and formost i see u guys all hav the same issuse what i dont see is ur device info along with the rom, radio, android verison, and the location ur android is stored ... i have the lates verison of droid v5 also energy with cookie full and my radio is 2.8 i believe android is on the sd card and running smooth ... now that the intro is out of the way hav u guys read what was needed , reason askin i found the thread where the question and answer is... and yes u guys are the only ones... now please do a search go up to the first thread of android on hd2, and good day to u all
Wingtytn, can you be more precise in your answer ? I am a quite long user in Xda, always try to help when i know and i never ask a question wich have been answered somewhere. I don't think i have the noob profile you seems to write. If you think about formatting sdcard, of course i did. I have a 2.08 radio, latest shubcraft build with manufreedom 382mo zimage. My rom was changed to a light android dedicated one, the latest chuckydroid rom. Just don't know what else to do and waste a lot of time trying to fix that from myself.

The TS issue is kernel related, that's why using an older kernel say the no speedy one should fix it. This is also the reason why this issue is being seen over multiple builds.

Thanks a lot shu8i, i will try an older zimage than the 27/07's cotulla.
Edit : Mmh exact same problem with the 23/07 zimage Cotulla_zImage_CABDET_NOSPEEDDY. That is weird.
I will order a clas 10 sdcard and see what happen...
Try the game ”Runners”. It uses both the camera and the g-sensor and freezes mad anytime, anywhere. Huge affirmation to the idea it's a bug of the g-sensor's or otherwize the screen's drivers.
DuperMan
Me too with screen freezes, i had tried all builds and same result. I think this is a problem with SD access because i noticed more freezes as more apps opened in backgroud.
Try to calibrate the g sensor
Found something ...
try disabling auto-rotation feature (settings -> display)
It works perfectly for me now.
Can you confirm that works for you too?
Did you dind a way to calibrate g-sensor on froyo?
Why the auto-rotation feature hangs so much for us?

I am not sure if this has to do with using Android or not, but sometimes my HD2 decides to reboot itself unexpectedly, on WM as well as on Android and I can't really find what's causing it.
But what happens is, after switching itself off, it switches itself on again and hangs on the HTC logo, sometimes with or without the following info:
R 2.10.50.28_2
G 15.40.50.07U
D 1.66.76641
I am using stock ROM that came with it, i assumed it will be stable by itself but it reboots itself randomly sometimes just like on Android.
Does it have to do with the Radio version (i changed it from 2.07.xx). I tried 2.12.xx before and had same problems.
I should note that the only way for it to run again is to remove the battery for a while and then put it back. If i remove it and put it back briefly it will still hang.
Anyone is familiar with this strange behavior?
Thanks
ME too
I have the EXACT same problem. It only started for me after using android. now whenever i run Android it will unexpectedly reboot and sometimes hang like yours. It also does it in WM though not as often. I was able to notice it might have something to do with data connections bc if i run android but only use wifi it seems to be fine. I tried changing Radios WM ROMs and Android builds i even hardspled my phone again but nothing solved it. The problem needs to be talked about more. it got so bad for me I bought a Desire and gave up on my HD2 for the moment. Keep this thread up.
sounds like i have to follow
I hope not!
I notice if i do heavy download on wm or android i get it. But it could be that the phone is too hot? But it's not alarmingly hot tbh.
I hope more people can shed light on this.
Thanks for your input.
Yeah this is what seems to happen to me too, i start a downlogsd it gets a bit warm then freezes or reboots and gets stuck. However it doesnt even have to be a large download for me, a simple cab file or youtube video sometimes. And as far as heat, this never used to be a problem and i know for a fact my phone used to heat up way more before without a problem.
Maybe the qualcomm chipset go in "safe mode"..i remember that for first start tickle the orange led and after the device freeze or restart..maybe your device overheat. Try to touch cover's device or install a battery status monitor software. If you have changed radio, return on the original status. In case the restart happen always, make a backup using Pimbackup, and do an Hard Reset. For first try to use the telephone without the memory card and test the stabilty. If is all ok, you have to provide to format your SD card in Fat32. Try also to change the HSPL with the original SPL.

Thabks. Back to the subject, today i tried downloading on wifi a 150mb file on android and it rebooted byitself.
Then i tried to play a wmv video file on WM stock ROM and after 6 min it rebooted.
So its starting to look more and more like cpu/heat problem, anyone having these issues?
So does anyone think this might have something to do with all the overclocking in those android builds we've been using?
After 45 mins of install HD2 still hanging?
Hi, I just installed FroyoSense by darkstone
Release date: 07.AUG.2010
I don't know if this is the latest (probably not) but after 45 minutes of install the screen has in the top left hand corner tiny small text (excuse my lack of knowledge here) but no scrolling text as I expected, its now like 50 minutes, how long should it take?
Any help please would be appreciated, thanks

New to the HD2
So, I just bought a used HD2 a week ago. It was having similar problems in WM. I took it to a local store, and they said that is just how WM phones are. I've flashed HSPL and different radios and ROMs, installed Android, but still have trouble with freezing and rebooting on it's own no matter what I do. IT happens the same in WM or Android. Is there any way to find out if these might be due to hardware problems caused by the previous owner?
I got the same problem, when I do a lot of things on the same time on the HD2 it hangs or reboot. During de restart of the phone it hangs on the White screen with HTC on it. I have te take the battery out of it en than reboot again.
When I listen music and Internet the same time it almost always happends.
It happends on WM but also on Android, I tryed different ROM's and Radio Version's but nothing worked. Also tryed to work without SD-card, but still the same problem.
So I have no idea how to solve the problem...
I hope someone now's how to solve it...
Sorry for my bad English but I hope it's clear

Ok having waited for 2 hrs, I shutdown and installed FroyoStone v2, this time the tiny text appeared and faded after about 5 -10 seconds and the screen has gone blank, is this normal? No scrolling text, nothing, I going tpo re-boot and will keep you updated. Thx
If you read the previous posts you would know this thread has nothing to do with the problem youre describing. I understand the confusion of the title but pls read the thread first.

Your problem is unrelated to this thread.
So far we have more and more people having the related issue on WM and Android. We need some expert to help us pinpoint the problem.

i have the same issues.
I can add also playing videos for longerthan 5-10min would make the phone reboot too weither its WM or android.
Today I was in the Store where I bought mine HTC HD2, because I was sick off it. They told me that is was a familiar problem with the HTC HD2. They also would repair it free for me. I didn't do it yet because first I have to delete my HSPL etc.
I asked them also what the would repair to solve te problem, he told me: the will do a complete bodyswap. So everything will be renewed, exept the tochscreen and front.
So I guess it is a real and serious hardware problem....
Why we dont hear people conplaining about it if its comon?
I find that very odd.
Someone could try PMing one of the devs in the forum and linking them to this thread to see if they could shed some insight or at least bring more attention to the issue.
Well I live in the Netherlands and on the Dutch HTC HD2 forum, I heard some people complaining about it. But the salesman of the store said that it is a familiar problem, so that sounds to me like a regular problem. But indeed it's weird we doesn't hear more people complaining.
Maybe the most of the people think is normal with WM, but I am really sick of it...
Let us track the OPEN issues on Android HD2, we will only discuss problems dealing with android alone, issues arised due to radio, WinMo rom and a specific android rom should be ignored.
AFAIK we still have 3 main Problems
1. GSensor/ Touchscreen Freeze.
Related Files in Android : \system\bin\akmd,\data\misc\AK8973Prms.txt and \system\lib\hw\sensors.xxxxx.so
(xxxxx = htcleo or default or qsd8k or ace or bravo based on the build)
This issue is not noticeable unless you a play game which uses Gsensor (Eg Abduction, NFS Shift ...)
This thread has lot more details about this issue and it could be a possible solution for you (it does not work for me though)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803242
Possible Workaround :
1. Disable Auto-Rotate screen in Settings -> Display
2. Run the following commands in Terminal
mv \system\bin\akmd \system\bin\akmd2
killall akmd
To Restore
mv \system\bin\akmd2 \system\bin\akmd
Basically you are renaming the file 'akmd' which is responsible for the sensor to work
2. Data Disconnects
Related Files : \system\lib\libhtc_ril_wrapper.so
This thread has lot more details about this issue and it could be a possible solution for you (it does not work for me though)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794309
Possible Workaround :
1. Switch Mobile Network OFF and then ON (Add a widget [Widget -> Settings -> Mobile Network])
2. Switch Airplane Mode OFF and then ON (Add a widget [Widget -> Settings -> Airplane Mode])
[EDIT]:
Guys looks like we got a fix.. this wrapper seems to work flawlessly as of now... you can try it here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824413
Just download 0.3 file and replace the file at /system/lib using root explorer
3. Occasional Black SOD and Accuracy in Auto Brightness
Newest kernals seems to have this issue, where the display stays black while the keypad lights glow.
Related Files : \system\lib\hw\lights.xxxxx.so
(xxxxx = htcleo or default or qsd8k or ace or bravo based on the build)
Possible Workaround :
1. Show the Sensor of your phone to some bright light source and your display will be back
2. Disable Automatic brightness in Settings -> Display-> Brightness
I will update this thread with Solutions as and when the developers fix it.
Whatever i have written is limited to my knowledge, it could be wrong, if so please correct me, Most of the vetarans know these issues and the work arounds, i have just put everything together for the new comers and to remind the developers of the existing bugs
Mods feel free to move the thread to General if need be.
Hi depakjan, This is great, thanks for tracking these issues.
can people confirm this "occasional bsod"?
i haven't seen it since light-sensor is calibrated.
i think the bsod is fixed with 2.12 radio and above..
Actually BSOD was introduced in the new lights file... it does not occur frequently... also if you have not upgraded you wont have it obviously...

Just so people don't get confused.
BSOD normally refers to the Blue Screen Of Death on boot and should be fixed in the latest kernels.
The black screen due to no back-light is an issue with the auto-brightness and, AFAIK, only happens on CM6 builds that haven't had the correct levels setup.
I could be wrong though as I personally only used it for a few days for testing purposes.

I second that explanation ... and the auto backlight levels in CM builds may actually work better than Desire builds if tweaked properly... atleast for me the reaction time of the sensor is much faster ... accuracy still a problem
Accuracy is still a problem, so is Black SOD .. i have been getting this in Mdeejay's Revolution, HD .. latest ones...
it so happens when you have been talking over your phone for a long time(which blocks the sensor from light).. and then when you are finished with the call it wont wake up... maybe it did not sense light ... but after you show the sensors over a bright light source.. it comes back..
i have seen couple of posts and users mentioning about this...
lets see if everyone agrees that there is no Black SOD, i will modify the post for accuracy..
Support of HTC extended battery
I have tried a few android builds, but none of them seemed to support OEM HTC 2300mAH extended battery - after android booted up in the dual boot process, the HD2 powered-off by itself. I read some posts that acknowledged the problem, but I have not come across any android build that resolved this issue... Did I miss them? Thanks.
Can we also add tracking of Idle / Screen Off Battery Drain? Target is 5-8ma, some builds run at 100ma.
Is anyone's market busted?
Most apps won't install, but some do just fine. This started last night. I tested on 4 roms now and all exhibit identical behavior. This was NEVER an issue before.
(the stupid mount/unmount trick does nothing)
However, once they've d/led I can install them manually. Except for google voice. It refuses to install LOL. Google must have screwed something big here.

There has been an issue internationally with access to the market for a while now. People were able to browse the market as normal but upon trying to install anything nothing would happen. This has been mentioned on several threads over this forum already and the problem is an intermittent one (obviously based on what server you connect to when trying to download anything).
Led Notification is not functioning, especially on Sense build.
backlight drivers are not working , it don't dim light when left without use (it closes the screen ) , as well as light sensor , doesn't dimm light only brightens the screen

I have tried a few android builds, but none of them seemed to support OEM HTC 2300mAH extended battery - after android booted up in the dual boot process, the HD2 powered-off by itself. I read some posts that acknowledged the problem, but I have not come across any android build that resolved this issue... Did I miss them? Thanks.

Try replacing the kernel from one of the Sense builds with my Alternative kernel.

And I'm hopeful that all the devs and chefs will have these problems solved before too long.

What doesn't make any sense is that the app successfully downloads, but either stalls when it needs to d/l or tries to install and tell me it was unsuccessful.

Just so people don't get confused.
BSOD normally refers to the Blue Screen Of Death on boot and should be fixed in the latest kernels.
The black screen due to no back-light is an issue with the auto-brightness and, AFAIK, only happens on CM6 builds that haven't had the correct levels setup.
I could be wrong though as I personally only used it for a few days for testing purposes.

I've found the backlight problem occurs (generally) if I unlock/lock the phone fairly quickly in a short space of time (and yes, I've only seen this on Hyperdroid 1.6 & 1.7, both CM6 builds). It's not consistently reproduce-able though, I can go several days without it happening, then have it happen a couple of times in a single day.
The touch screen is still active though, and swiping the unlock brings the screen back to normal brightness levels.

Hi!
I wonder what "works for me" means. What exactly are your leds doing? On all builds i tried so far the left green led flashed about one time a minute green and nothing happened when the phone was charging. Are there some hidden settings or a special program for hd2 leds?
Cheers,
Otto
IF somebody know the inverse option on photoshop when black comes as white and same for all colors it happens to my hd2 after a while when I unlock is cuz I press harder on it or is a soft problem?
I've seen a few people reporting this, luckily haven't experienced it myself. Nobody seems to have figured the cause as yet, but a reboot solves the issue (until the next time of course).
I had inverted colours recently. Was weird... I was on the phone when it dialed another number (possibly i did it with my cheek cos i'd been switching back and forth from keypad and loudspeaker settings). When i hung up my phone went strange with the 'inverted' look.
I'd love to know why because it's the only stability issue I have now.
Regards

This happened to me as well. I had to give it a restart. It happened after I waked the phone from screen off. It would be nice to find a fix for this.

Hope it is just a soft prob and not a sign of hardware fail.

Haven't tried it myself, but they say taking a screenshot creates a normal looking one.
So I'm afraid it is a sign of hardware fail. The bad thing is my phone is barely 2-3 months old.
edi: could you all please post the kernel you have. From what I've read, it seems an MDJ kernel problem. I used MDJ 0.2oc
I had this a few times before Xmas on one of Darkstones SD builds, only did it 4 or 5 times though. Taking a screenshot didn't work, just got a normal screen.
Since using NAND builds I've not come across this problem once, so I'm guessing the problem is Software/Kernel related rather than Hardware, which should come as a relief.

Did anyone find a fix for this?
I am using prj Clean Desire v0.3.2 (NAND) [Kernel: prj v0.4] and am getting the same issue, unlock the phone and everything is inverted but taking a screenshot with drocap2 comes out perfectly normal. It is happening every few days now.
I am going to try a different ROM and see if it still occurs.
Never had inverted colors in WinMo, with first Android SD releases I've had that problem quite often. But since flashed NAND Android 45 days ago haven't seen any inverted colors yet.

Had this problem today for the first time while in a call. A reboot put it back to normal...
Any known reason?
hyperdroid 2.1.0
I get this error occasionly on hyperdroid 2.1.0 but it happened to me again today.... its also happened on miui. No one found a solution or cause?
I have had this on various occasions and there i various topics on it but with no resolution of any answer as to possible cause.
