I believe my camera is broken - black screen. I'm not sure but I think it's happened after I upgraded to wm6.
Does anyone had the same problem and was able to fix it or the hardware is ****ed up and there's nothing to do?
Thanks
no....
honestly I don't believe that an upgrade to wm6 can "break" your camera...
... and then there is a simple test that you can try: come back to the original shipped i-mate rom (ftp://ftp.clubimate.com) and you see what happens.
but.... why don't you give us some more infos?
like: is a G3/G4 locked or unloked, IPL/SPL version...
hi
tommy
well, I did that. I restore the original rom and the camera still didn't work.
My phone is G3 locked and I installed on top wm6 from faria (a nice one!).
Of course it could just be that my camera gave up. Since I was not using it regularly and at some point after the upgrade to wm6 I saw the problem it was one of the link.
Can the hardware of the camera be affected by the overclocking?
hey~
i think i may have a similar problem (but the explination doesn't go in to deep detail)
when i try to snap a picture, about half the time it will snap....half the time it just goes black (the screen) and no matter what....it WILL NOT SAVE the photo.
i've tried changing where it saves the photos (main memory or sd card) as well as changed all the settings one by one (megapixels, fine:super fine, snapping type [full press etc] etc. etc. etc. i also tried changing settings via the advance config tool often mention onthe forums)
i haven't updated the rom (stock at&t rom is installed....i'm savy but not savy enuf to change the rom lol) nor have i updated windows (it always gives me an error...says it cant connect to the server or something, oh well i don't much care for micro$ucks anyways lol)
it's running windows 6.1 professional...i have plenty of memory free and hadn't installed anything new or tweaked any settings the day it stoped working....
any ideas?

ps.
oh yeah, oddly...the video record function still works....
Camera might be out of the connecting socket - open your device and make sure it's connected. Failing that - the replacement cameras can be purchased fairly cheaply.
thanks i'll give that a try and let ya know if it works!
i appreciate the very fast reply it's nice to know im not the only insomniac out there lol

Moved since problem is not ROM related.

Haha, I am 18 hours or so ahead of you.
thank you and sorry i placed my question in the wrong area....where has it been moved to though? :s (while ive been a member her for a while, i am still new to posting...ill admit i usually read...but i hope to change that )
~j
No worries. Let us know when you get it fixed and how.
hey all~
enigma....now i see it's enigmaNZ so new zeeland i assume is where you are....so maybe im a lone insomniac lol
jwzg....thanks again
all....as to the suggestion of opening the phone case....well with my nerve disease i'm going to have to have a friend do that since my hands are often no where near steady...ill let ya all know if that works.
mean time i may also look for maybe some other camera software....like i said, it will snap the photo but it refuses to SAVE the photo....so maybe the software is corrupt who knows....ill try it all
~j
hey all~
so i dove into my system registry tonite....i tweaked some things, changed the localtion of where stuff gets saved, changed some 1's to 0's an vice versa an it now seems to work....hope it remains working!
~j
Must have been a bad camera package.
jwzg~
yeah who knows, i'm just happy it's working again

hi all,
I've a problem with my htc touch, it doesn't won't to start !
everytime i turn it on it turns off right before the HTC welcome screen comes !
any idea what is that ? or how can i flash another rom ?
*it's fully charged
*my rom is Touch_of HD lite 3.0
Thanks
Hi,
Did you flash a new rom or something recently? How old is your battery? If possible....try changing the battery and giving it another shot.
it's a new battery about 2 months or something
yes this is a new rom i flashed it yesterday !
Thanks for your quick response

Hmmm...there you go. That seems to be the problem. Perhaps you'd want to go back to the thread from where you downloaded the rom and check to see if anyone else has had similar problems on their device. Or maybe try to get in touch with the person that cooked it. You can PM them or something. I'm sorry but beyond this....I cant tell you what to do....I've never flashed a rom on my device. Still learning Perhaps someone else on this forum can guide you.
Good Luck
Thank you but i don't think the rom is the problem,
I entered the boot loader and tried flashing 2 different roms and the same thing happens right before the HTC welcome screen "the animated picture where HTC logo appears" the device turns of !
so what is that !!!!
any help please
mine like the fridge!
For troubleshooting, try to cool it in the fridge for some minutes before you turn it on. If this helps, then I have no idea what causes the fault! But you are one step closer by knowing if its a hw or sw issue
If this helps, then I have no idea what causes the fault!

lool
I tried what you said but didn't work too !
I think it might be the RAM or something .. what do you think ?
could be
I've red somewhere that its a RISC controller in the Elf. If so; it contains a RAM itself. So even tough I'm not a specialist on this things I belive that it could be a internal fault in the RISC or the multiplexer to the external RAM or the RAM itself. These things are all a motherboard issue that needs a replacement - in other words a new phone!
If its a SW problem it should work fine with the orignial ROM. On this field I shall keep my mouth shutt 'cus I know nothing about phone/smartphones!! I do think you should make it to the bootleg whit any ROM.. I belive!
have you tried to hard reset
1) Simultaneous press and hold "Power" and "Camera" key.
2) Press "Reset" once with the stylus and then release all keys.
Yes I've tried hard reseting !

That's a relief
Have you tried flashing one of the original roms onto your device? If not....give that shot. You'll find a list of all original shipped roms on the wiki.
I'm not sure
If the mailfunction started after you ROM-flashing "upgrade", then its more likely that its the software. But I know nothing about software on this things or what the symptom may be if theres a missmatch on the phone configuration/model and ROM.
guys I've tried everything even original roms
I think i've to change the board !
Thank you all
I for the life of me cant figure out why my camera is completely dead! I have FULLY wiped all caches,everything under 'WIPE' via AMONS and even formatted my SD card as well as trying an alternate SD card(both 8GB--C6speed)--never had a problem w either card on ANY ROM...ALL OF A SUDDEN the past 2days my camera goes to a FULL BLACK SCREEN,when pressing the CAMERA icon. Occasionally the taskbar will remain uptop but will timeout when screen display shutsoff. Now if i launch CAMERA via DESIRE ROM(KING),ill get the notice about clicking trackball to resume camera but as soon as i click it,the message dissapears and the screen will go back to black screen again...and repeat. I SWEAR i have DONE MULTIPLE COMPLETE WIPES AND REFORMATS so im left to believe its THE HARDWARE itself! CAN ANYBODY PLEASE LEND ME A HAND IF the similar problemhas occured...On the Nandroid backups that ive restored from FULLY FUNCTIONING bkups,if i launch NEXUS TORCH it will say CANNOT ACCESS LED---this is THE ONLY info besides the "camera wake message"mentioned earlier that i can provide. Thanks in advance and pleas edont flame for NOT being in Q&A bc this is more of a DEV related restore question.
**oh and BTW--I DID TRY TO INSTALL the DESIRE R2 cam fix and does nothing. I tried it when all was working fine early in the week and it did nothing to help FLASH timing for me,so i NAN restored back to prior state and CAMERA continued working until about THURSDAY night--regardless--PHONE is in OUT OF BOX STATE--MINUS UNLOCKED and it STILL doesnt work!---PEACE and Happy Mothers Day to any Mothers out there in XDA world!

Your hardware has malfunctioned. Contact HTC for a repair.
1. you may have a broken camera, try a stock rom
2. your caps lock button is definitely broken
3. you posted in the wrong section

1. i should have known you were from Philly and cant read--I TRIED STOCK ROM
2. CAPS is to put highlights on key terms so idiots dont read over the fact that I DID TRY STOCK ROM---see how that helps?
3. Thanks for your informative responses---any suggestions from CAPTAIN OBVIOUS how to get service on a ROOTED device without being charged full price on the phone?? Ahhh--thought not!--So i tried here to see if anyone else had similar situation. AGAIN-thanks for your help as well SERIAL TOON--geez
If it's a hardware failure they won't charge you.
I think it will help if you go through Google Cust service first...they will end up redirecting you to HTC repair. Provide all truthful information on your issue, proving that you have done some legitimate trouble shooting and they will realize that it is a hardware issue, not the ROM flashing or bootloader unlocking that caused the problem. Someone else on the xda forums had a rooted phone with bluetooth problem and was able to send to HTC for repair for free...with a 4 day turnaround!
Good luck!

I didnt intend to sound rude,im just a little pissed right now..I Only ask bc i already had an issue in January days after receipt of phone. Issue was solved by sending me a new battery bc other was causing random shutdowns (ive since forwarded this info to another XDAmember that had exact same issue and they give him replacement phone at 1st but issue continued to occur--i told him about my story after he posted his problem, he contacted them this weekend and confirmed with me today that a new battery was on the way..see my public IM's for info). Anyway,when i was dealing with the battery issue they said they would definately NOT be able to fix under warranty bc the phone is rooted and unlocked. I can attest to the few people on here that said theyve been successful in such cases,but either way,IVE ALREADY STATED that i tried the DESIRE R2 camera kernal to see if that helps,so im not going to be dishonest and tell them i havent tried anything other than custom roms. Again..positive suggestions or similar experiences with warranty info would be appreciated....trollers looking for a funny post or to degrade people can eat one!

Thanks JOSH, ill look into it tommorrow--as i stated tho--i feel im being dishonest for trying the DESIRE R2 cam and saying that they should cover it---uninformed people will assume THAT couldve caused it,even though i used phone afterwards for a few days w no side effects
Hey Milton, like others have mentioned in here might want to try flash back to stock and seeing if the problem persists. If it does then your looking at a hardware problem and you should contact HTC/google for repair.
Yea...i was thinking that from get go--(hardware prob). Im on cheesy STOCK ROM right now and have been for cpl hrs...but its obvious its gotta be hardware...NOW comes the crappy part of trying to explain it to HTC when attempting to get an RMA!--Yee Haa!
MOD PLEASE CLOSE OR DELETE---THANKS!
Milton, among the items on the very small list of things folks around here want in return for helping you is that you lay off the caps. Doesn't highlight anything that you'd want to highlight.

Okay,,,this is weird!!..My TORCH hadnt been working at all either, the whole time ive had the camera problem. Now ,the torch will work for ONE TURN ON, then if i launch CAMERA, the cam still doesnt work. i have to HOME and HOME only to get back to home screen..BACK ARROW does nothing except vibrate,indicating touch response. If i then re-launch TORCH, it doesnt work....!??SOMETHING is ODD--and im split whether its hardware- or some sorta SYSTEM file that stays stuck even after all STOCK FLASHES and everything!--again,reminder..the LED TORCH hadnt worked up until this point--unit has NEVER been dropped,slid out of pocket from 1foot high onto superthick carpet,so i doubt its a loose internal cable...Hmmm...

That seriously hurts my eyes to look at. Try using proper punctuation and grammar. It's very simple and still gets your point across.
As for your phone. Call Google which will probably have you call HTC. People have gotten their rooted devices fixed for free if it's a genuine hardware problem and nothing caused from the rooting process.

You should send it to HTC for repair. Charging fee or not, but thats the only option to you right now because its a hardware failure.

I was thinking the exact same thing, don't know where he must have learned how to type. Then you criticize people from Philly, or whatever its called somewhere, for not knowing how to read. I would say mirror that advice and learn how to type.. type properly.
Torch will work until camera app is used then it wont work again until i reboot. After reboot, torch will work ONLY on regular/lower setting. MAX brightness will not work. Toggle back to LOW setting and torch will work again. Im going to try what DOUG suggested bc that is the only thing i havent tried yet...but the way torch and camera are acting up and requiring reboots keeps me willing to try software tricks first...WHAT ties the TORCH's HI setting to the camera app adn yet keeps the LOW setting seperate!??..ill try the TORCH dev real quick for some insight on how the two work hand in hand.Thanks for anyone using their time to help instead of criticize. Sorry for mocking ones ability to read but i was quite [email protected] time bc i lost a major function on my phone.My apologies to all

The attitude, hostility and the caps are not welcome here.
Along with the others I have no sympathy for you. Learn proper grammar and get a better attitude.
Troll much? Go tell your mother happy mothers day if you have that much time to pull up old posts from people asking questions in a 'kernal forum' about basics. Basics that anyone should know, if not they stand a much better chance on damging their phone. It wasnt being ignorant. Since you know everything there is to know about everyones posts, tell me where the topic dealing with my specific camera issue has been previously posted and ill be glad to read and search thru that forum. I wasnt the one asking questions about something mentioned in the OP (uh oh i used caps--oh geesh-someones gonna be saaad now!)and numerous pages before. Im sorry i dont spend all my life on forums to know that only words approved for caps are indeed CAPITALIZED. Petty little boy-and by the way, i was trying to stress your good advice by typing your name in caps so people would credit you with the help-Sorry to have taken your precious time sir. Good day.
Hi All
Was using SD versions of Android in my HD2 which worked quite well .....decided to make the jump to NAND recently but I'm having a problem with phone calls.
When I make a call out, everything works fine, but when I hang up on the call, the hard buttons on the bottom of the phone all light up but the screen doesn't turn back on.... Only way to get the screen back on is to plug in the USB cable or power adapter or pull the battery and do a reboot!
Have tried a couple of different builds from different chefs and a couple of Radios just in case.
At the moment I've got the following on it:
Radio is 2.12.50.02_2
Android version is 2.2.1
Build is DL DesireZ v3.4 Final (but this problem also happens with CleanDROID V1.31)
Also tried an MTTY Task 29, reload of MAGLDR then re-flash of the NAND in case traces of my previous ROM were still around but that hasn't helped either.
Any ideas?
I seen many threads about same situation. Actually i itself use daily gpc hd2 gingerbread v1.5 with same problem. Sometime help back button (when call ended not at me). Sometime just more light to proximity (or it light) sensor (when inside and put phone with face to some light). Outside i just must turn phone with face to sun or good light then screen wakes up.
I tested many many nand roms. All have same problem.
Tested win 6.5, win 7 and sd version, they works well. That gives confirmation that my proximity (or it light) sensor works well. And finally that something wrong with nand.
Here was discussion that MAGLDR does that. NO.
I started run over net and find solution. Here seems no help for this right now. Maybe just problem ignored because cookers itself dont have this and cant do anything. If you dont have problem then how you can fix it.
On web i found some discussion about kernel problem or smth about this proximity sensor. I cant find it right now again. There was talking about this problem, but no solution.
I thinked about open new thread and invite kernel chiefs to discussion to solve this problem. But today i find your ask. I opened for any test and help that i can give. I dont be afraid to lose my phone if something must go wrong. Phone is just piece of electronic and you can replace parts. But knowledge and experience you cant buy.
Any ideas how to resolve this little bad thing?
Thanks for the reply.
Yes it's a real problem but mine won't wake up no matter how much light.
The only way I can get it to wake up is to plug it in to power, then the screen wakes up.
Is that the same as yours?
I i remember it right i was suprised once too if this happened. I just put my "again dead" phone to charging and its waked up.
If screen is dead and same time connected to pc (i use for managing inside phone androidcommander) then moving over dirs wake screen back too.
But lets look how long my nerves will be good. Today i thinked to move back win 6.5 and sell this bastard.
No don't sell we need to resolve! I'm hoping someone will look at this thread and help us figure out why this is happening. I can't believe we are the only 2 people who have this issue.
Anyone else have any ideas as to why this is happening?
This issue was also on sd versions. So I see nand has not fixxed it. I am running MDJ HD 4.6 and have this issue. Sometimes the light sensor works properly and other times it goes to black screen and gets stuck.
I read somewhere that it might be the hardware itself. Saw a video on youtube also. Seems the european T8585 and telstra T9193 might have poor light sensors. The T-mobile light sensor supposedly does not have this problem.
So I am guessing anyone with this problem does not have the T-mobile USA version??
It could just be drivers too. It is a pain and sometimes I wish I could just disable the light sensor.
Also NAND roms are no better than sd versions as far as bugs. If the sd version has the bugs then so will the NAND version. The build is just installed at a different location.
Yes good point.... the bug will be replicated as it's just where the OS is stored that's different.
I'm thinking it's the hardware as I have this problem on WinMo6.5 too and I have tried various WinMo roms but had the same problem.
Mine is a UK HD2 supplied by O2. Wish there was a fix for it :-( It's a real problem.
PS I ran PhireMOD's Skinny EVO SD Android for a while and didn't have as much as a problem as I have had with the 2 NAND roms I've tried..... if that's any clue? At least with that rom I was able to make calls and hang up and still get the screen back after I hung up (except for the screen going white and washed out which could only be resolved by a reboot). There was still the problem with the screen being on all the time during a call or the screen being black and not coming back on during a call though.
I have these sort of problems too. It's really annoying when you're in a phonecall and you take the phone away from your ear and it takes a few secs to turn on. Also when I'm unlocking it.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
At least yours comes back on lol mine stays off for ages and ages and sometimes doesn't come back on at all!
Noticed that if I shine a torch into the proximity sensor that's the only way I can get the thing to turn back on :-( Also noticed the 2 little holes where the prox sensor sits appear dirty/cloudy... not sure how that happened.
I wonder if the prox sensor is busted or if it's just dirty or something? Going to get a T5 Torx and take my phone apart to find out if it's something I can resolve.
Well i had this with rafpignas kernel...i changed to markinuX today and tested it with over 10 calls and it works flawlessly right now
Hmm, are you sure g9650? Seems my guess about kernel was then true. I use gpc pure gingerbread 1.6 with gpc itself made kernel. I go right now replace kernel and test. Results tomorrow.
Took the phone apart yesterday night and uncovered the proximity sensor. Even out of the case it needs a torch/flashlight to shine on it to bring the screen back on :-( I honestly think the proximity sensor hardware isn't working anymore.
I'll try the kernal you suggested though just in case that's what's causing the problem.
Datas0ft let me know if it works for you?
Latz, actually i taked to test markinus extra clean 1.7.1 (right now on it itype this). Had one call before and no changes.
Also i stuck on taking out kernel at this version. Low knowledge. Dont find any help yet on xda. I work on it. If you have hints dont hestitate say.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
:-( I was hoping we found a miracle cure! Ok let me flash mine tonight and try it to see if mine behaves any different. Will post back with results... let me know fi anything changes with your phone datas0ft.

Quick question, the zip file you gave me only has two .ko files and zImage while the original rafdroid kernel has like 5 .ko files... what should I do? copy raf's kernel .ko files missing into markinux ones?
Or just pack the zip file using two .ko files? Thanks
I cant ansver. Dont have much knowledge on this. I followed instructions. This taked to me these three files. I installed these.
I finded some problems right now (wifi and gps dont work and my 3g too). This may not happen at kernel side. I have made some changes on rom side. I go replace whole rom and then again kernel. Then i go make final decisions.
I'm having the same problems, you two are not the only ones. This has been really frustrating me lately, and I thought it might have been a problem for only me because I just had the screen replaced. It worked fine in winmo 6.5, now in NAND I'm having some issues. I text a lot more than I actually call, however so it's not that big of a problem for me right now
Hey guys...not sure if anyone still use this phone lol
My phone has been acting up. When I want to unlock the screen it won't let me drag the screen at all, even during usage the windows button/back button is not responsive.
Now some of the keyboard keys don't even respond.
Anyone know what to do about this at all??
Thanks for any help!

It could be a bug associated with touch driver version, you could try loading a new rom or update the version you already have, you will need to read a bit before hand but once you get into it it really is easy, it depends which details you find in the tri-color screen and if you are ready to get HSPL or if you need to downgrade first and install custom rom etc. !!
if this doesn't help then it is probably in need of a replacement touch screen but knowing HTC never guaranteed to be perfect and bug free on a new screen, if you think it is still worth the effort, definitely worth buying 100% original HTC screen as opposed to the chinese crap !!

i am still using this phone among others and has always been a good solid phone for me, just updated with the NWA 7.8 rom which is in the development section, if you aren't worried about the phone anyway, there is no harm in having a go with custom roms !!!!
if you switch off the phone and then hold volume down button while switching on ( don't let go of the volume button ) it will take you to the tricolor screen, you will have written SPL, if you tell me that number, i can then tell you whether it will be the easy method or the slightly more involved method !!!
