Hi all,
I've got an 18 month old HTC touch that's running the standard shipped ROM from T-Mobile. I unlocked the phone about 8 months ago and have had no problems and the battery has always held a charge with no problems. However, yesterday morning I went to check it and it was powered off so I assumed the battery must have flattened overnight (left wi-fi on possibly?) so I plugged it into my laptop via USB to charge it but there was no activity light on the phone at all.
I then tried plugging the phone into the original mains charger and left it to charge for an hour. After doing this, I managed to get the phone to boot into the OS a couple of times but it froze after a minute or two so I had to reboot it again. I managed to get it to hard reset and rebuild correctly once but then it wouldn't boot up again?
I've since left it on charge overnight last night and have managed to get it to start a couple of times this morning but most times it hasn't got past the T-Mobile startup (IPL2.8, SPL 2.8) except for one time that it reached the green Windows Mobile screen before it just powered off again!
My initial thought was the battery isn't holding a charge so I've ordered another one to test but was hoping someone here might have an idea?
I have been able to get the phone into the bootloader a couple of times if that helps?
Thanks for any help
Steve
Hmmmmmmmmm
Try putting it in the refrigerator and see this thread

Just a quick update. I've just got my Touch/Elf back from HTC after getting a new mainboard under warranty. I didn't know the warranty situation so contacted HTC direct and they confirmed that as I got it from T-Mobile there was a 2 year warranty, even though my 12 month T-mobile contract expired 2 months ago :0).
Cheers

All of a sudden, my P3400's battery started going to zero and my phone restarts. I thought it to be a battery issue and purchased a new battery.
Now with the new battery the same issue is happening. It also restarts in middle of a call. The only difference is that with my old battery the call can no longer then 3 mins and with new battery I can make call till 6-7 mins.
Any one has a solution for this ?
I have tried using different ROMs but no success. It looks like i have buy a new phone itself
same problem ... and i have to pull the charger cable alittle bit from being fully injected into my phone to get my phone charged
i think its time to buy a New one...!
my nexus one sometimes suddenly get restart when charging on or data cable is connected.
i though its rom problem so i flash cynogen mod 6.1.1 on my nexus one but still same.
when gprs (internet from service provider not from wifi) is on and at the same time when u plug charging usb cable after sometimes it get restart.
even if i open any other application while charging phone get restart ..
Do you notice the phone getting particularly hot while it is charging?

I've started seeing weird restart issues too. Mostly when i'm switching between wifi and 3g/edge...
I think it's all started after i've flashed 32.50.00.32U_5.12.00.08 radio.
The radio is much better for me than the stock froyo one, as i had a lot of problems getting back on the carrier 3g/2g after being on wifi... This reconnects much more reliably, but also restarts occasionally. pretty bad.
What radio are you using?
my radio is also 0.35

Perhaps you could monitor cpu usage with a task manager? Usually the phone getting hot is a sign of the cpu ramping up.

Are you using a customer kernel?
I had a weird reboot issue on my N1 - found out it was caused by 2 things:
1) I was using a 99 cent car charger from ebay ... somehow the micro-USB connector was just not right
2) I tried a mini to micro usb converter so I could use an old Blackberry car charger and well.... same result.
I might end up shelling the 20-30 bucks for the real-deal car charger.
Charging at home is never an issue - I have 2 original N1 wall chargers and the little docking thing.
still phone get restart

hey guys If try to play gangster on my nexus one ..
if works fine...but after some time of playing game it get restart suddenly ...
my nexus one get restart on NFS shift and asphat 5 too....
i am cynogen mod rom....IS it hardware problem or Rom problem.??
This is a little funny, mine started to restart during power/usb charge as well, (4 days ago it started to do it) I was using stock everything (2.2.1) on it with a unlocked boot loader.
I just ended up rooting and installing CM7 and have not had a reboot on power (but its only been just over a day now).
Kind of funny how some of us had it all start around the 15th/16th Jan.
What would happen with mine. (using stock 2.2.1 from last OTA) This started 16th Jan.
Plug it in to main power, got a text message, open the app to reply (handcent) phone rebooted, got stuck in a boot, pull battery, it booted up but phone removed LauncherPro. installed again, plugged in, got another text, open the default message app, phone rebooted.
Left phone on charge for the night.
No problems all the next day while off power.
Got home, used USB cable for power from computer, phone reboots after opening an app, disabled LauncherPro thinking it could be that, plugged in again and phone rebooted when opening up settings.
Never had this problem before, I then rooted the phone installed clockworkmod and got CM7 installed.
Last night i put it on power and was able to send text messages etc fine.
I had the reboot issue last year. For me it started after I overheated the N1 badly.
After that it would reboot occasionally when it got hot. After a while it would reboot whenever I used the 3G or GPS for more than 5 minutes.
After sending it in to HTC twice they finally replaced the motherboard and I have not had a reboot since.
Moral of the story: Don't overheat your N1.
i think its my hardware problem

hey dude
i have install cynogen mod in my nexus one but still it get restart in some application and while playing games like gangstar ......
it also get restart when we charge the phone...
i think its hardware problem... my phone is not in warranty..now what to do?.
i can open my phone and give some Heat my hot air gun?
The first nexus one I got had that problem, and I got a replacement phone to fix it. Regret it because it had a much better AMOLED without any of the redness tinges that all the other ones I've gotten have.
It's a hardware problem.
I had the same issue, it started almost directly after I installed MIUI rom.
Before that i had CM6 so I just went back to that rom and the issue was solved.
I did't care because I prefere CM instead of MIUI.
Get the last_kmsg and see if "ARMV9 Crashed" shows up. If it does, chances are it's a hardware issue in which case you're SOL.
Right my problem sorted
Found out that it is the mother board, my was re-booting when it got over 37 degrees, was fine till it got hot then rebooted (plugged in or not). Sent it away and now have a new nexus 1, got it up to 45degrees the other day and no reboot. its a hardware fault, nothing you can do apart from sending it away
Using CM6 latest build and have had mine reboot a few times when charging too.. odd.
Hi
I installed a NAND build of gingerbread on my wifes phone and it worked fine. The battery finally died on it today and she plugged it in to charge.
Now the phone turns on with the cable in and then constantly reboots. Without the cable it does nothing.
Can anyone help

What ROM are you using? We need more details we can't just guess
From my understanding, using MAGDLR, you cant charge the phone when it dies completely.
You have to get an external charger.
After installing boyppc Ginger_sense rom my phone froze, I had to take the battery out and put it back in. After taking it out I could no longer get the phone to turn on unless it was plugged into the charger.
Once it's powered up the phone will say my battery is 100%, however when I disconnect it from the charger it dies. I've attempted to switching to a different rom with no avail.
Help please.
Note: I own two batteries and the same thing has happened to both, so I doubt both my batteries are messed up (plus the fact that one of them is only a month old).
Also, I use CWM roms.
Edit: Note: Fixed issue by removing battery while plugged into charge and then reinserting.
Try doing a Nandroid backup, perform a task 29 and flash a WinMo rom...see if it happens there as well...
^
Will try now.
Problem remains after task 29, what should I do?
are your battery pins not bend a little?
same issue
