[Q] HD2 WP7 Auto power off and reset issues - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

Hi, I am running the DFT WP7 on my HD2. I am finiding the phone randomly turns itself off and also restting itself back to standard which now means i have to re-install everything!!! luckily i have not activated my windows live yet and would like to know if anyone can help me get to the bottom of this before i do. i am using an 8GB Sandisk micro sd card just incase this makes any difference and radio 2.08.50.05 and magldr111. Any advice would be very welcome

You should probably try using the 2.15.50.14 radio. and magldr112 as a first step.
I had reset issues with a 4gb sandisk microsd, but it has been rock solid on an 8gb card (set up for dual booting with Android). However, this morning, I started getting random resets again. The only thing different was that I was using a different battery (cheap ebay battery that works fine in wm6.5 and Android). I put in the original battery and it took 3 attempts to boot, but since then it has been solid again. You may therefore wish to try with a different battery.

Thank you for your reply though :-D

random freeze

My phone freezes at random times. I couldn't figure out a pattern.
I bought it a week ago and at after some time I click on the power button to wakeup - it doesn't respond and sometimes I just leave it as it is and find the backlight still on showing the screen from 10 minutes ago and not responsive.
The only thing I can do is to soft reset the device but just yesterday it happened like 40 times. While frozen the gsm service is also down and the incoming calls are replied with "can't be reached at the moment" 2 days ago I hard reset the device and it froze again just after the hard reset - for that reason I believe it's a hardware or a firmware issue - not a software one.
ROM:1.14.414.2 24011 WWE
ROM date: 12/10/08
Radio version: 1.09.25.14
Protocol version: 52.49a.25.26U
Anyone with the same issue?
//anything like an eventvwr to see the logs? maybe I can figure out a pattern.
- Did you install the HTC hotfix?
- How old is your sim card? If it's very old, you may want to ask your provider for a new one.
Thx for the questions - unfortunately:
- Installed the hot fixes
- I just got a new subscription, my sim is new
"h..p://www.htc.com/sea/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=179&act=sd&cat=all"
Download and install the bottom fix.
edit: Sorry now I did see your reply.
Do a hard reset and after install again hotfix
Thanks for the advise, but it doesn't work either.
2 days ago I hard reset the device, applied the patch - still the same problem. Also in the link you wrote it says "screen stops responding for about 3 to 5 seconds when running" - My device just freezes at a point and stops responding. Most probably there is an IRQ trigger at the processor level that freezes all operations.
//doublepost
Same thing happened to me a few times.
Today I hat to soft reset 4 times!! with the button under the back cover because none of the buttons would do anything at all.
I also have the device for just over a week now.
I'll try and install the patch, but I don't think it will fix it because the description of the problem is totaly different.
I'll let you know..
grtz,
Pfeffa-rah
Pfeffa-rah, I suppose you bought it from Netherland - and I bought it from Belgium, most probably with the same shipment - there might be a production or shipment problem. Its good to know that I'm not alone =)
By the time can you write down ROM, ROM date, Radio version and Protocol version?
Looking forward to hear from you,
Kaya
Hi I just installed the hotfix and played around with it.
The hotfix did nothing at all!
It still froze on me.
Rom version: 1.14.404.3 (22237) NLD
RomDate: 12/09/08
Radioversion: 1.09.25.14
Protocolversion: 52.49a.25.26U
I might try backing up this rom and installing another one...
I've had good experiences wit dutty's roms on my TytnII..
But I need time for that. And time... well... there's never enough
I installed a lot of software in My HD. I was thinking of doing a hard reset and installing the programms one by one. However, since you have the same problem and it didn't work for you. I guess that's no use then..
Damn, I love my Blackstone, but this random freezing really spoils it!
grtz,
Pfeffa-rah
I will warn you on changing the rom 'cause we aren't using the same rom version but facing the same problem. This might mean - it is either a problem with the radio version/protocol or a hardware issue. If its a hardware issue, a cooked rom won't make much of a difference. And I wouldn't risk to blow its warranty if it is really a hardware problem that would need a replacement.
You long live my friend, nothing explains this situation better than this:
"Damn, I love my Blackstone, but this random freezing really spoils it!"
// the only software didn't get effected from hard reset is igo8 which was in my sd - do you by any chance have it too? maybe but just maybee it might be screwing around with the gps and cause trouble but its really a long shot
Same issue did appear in Greece, in 4 different devices. Two (2) of them bought from Expansys and two (2) from local market. One of them returned the device to the local resseler and they changed motherboard.
Now me, after installing official ROM and Cooked ones (Panosha 1.3, 1.4, 1.4.1, 1.5) and having always after a couple of days the same problem, now I am running Panosha Black Pearl 1.6 with no problems at all yet.
My devices info :
I also have to mention that probably the problem has nothing to do with specific software / program, since I've tried official ROM, with nothing else installed (completely clean device and NO SD card inside)
HTC Touch HD, S/N HT844..., bought from Expansys on 10/11/08, ROM now : Black Pearl 1.6 WWE Full (Original 1.14.405.3 build 22273 WWE, ROM date 24/10/08), Radio version: 1.09.25.14
evharisto poli ktsak =)
Now we can be almost sure that its not a rom or a software issue as the problem is spotted on different rom versions. Hopefully we have the same radio and protocol version which either of them might be the cause (I suppose ktsak didn't made a change on it). Or a hardware problem ofcourse.

Yes, protocol and radio version are the original ones, never changed.
Thats why i've tried 5 or six different ROMs, in order to exclude the possibility of software affect
My Blackstone was very easy to freeze. When I opened a lot of programms and then used the manager to close all of them at once, (I use the SPB pocket plus X-button menu for that....) it woud freeze 9 outof 19 times.
What I have tried:
1. remove SIM and SD-card.
I couldn't freeze it after that. I tried 15 times. I didn't freeze even once.
2. With simcard but no SD.
Couldn't freeze it.
3. Formatted SD-card and copied everything back to it.
(use micro-SD to USB adaptor for that)
It only froze once. After that until now, I couldn't make it freeze.
Since it still froze 1 time, I think it is not the solution.
Especially because of ktsak's post....

However, I will still experiment with it a bit.
I changed the class 4 one I got with the device with a class 8 one that I already had. That is the one I am using now.
What SD-cards are you using?
(There were also freezes without SD-cards installed?)
I will use it with the class 8 re-formatted SD-card for a while and see if it freezes. If it does, I will try the slow one.
I will report back here.
ktsac: let us know if the Black Pearl still works or if it doesn't. I am used to flashing my phones all the time, so I am not afraid of it.

Pfeffa-rah
FYI
Is there a way to format the SD card from the device? I haven't tried that yet but I don't have a compatible card reader or an adapter either.
And I also tried to run a lot of programs and kill them all - it froze... It might mean a problem with process killing.

As mentioned in previous message, I've also tried with SIM card and NO SD and had the problem as well.
Also have to clarify that my miroSD card is a Class 2, SanDisk 8GB capacity, officialy supplied with the package. Never tried anything else.
Probably you also mean 8 GB and not Class 8, since, as far as I know, the fastest in the market is Class 6. Class 8 does not exist, you' ve made a mistake. Now, since last Monday, with Black Pearl 1.6 WWE installed, the device operates with no difficiencies, no freezing at all. Thats my news

I just tried it hoping our problems might not be the same. I must point out that it DID make a difference in my case. I only managed to freeze it once since yesterday. (And I really tried hard!). And even then it was a different freeze than the other ones. The buttons still vibrated my device and I could still switch the screen on and off. I crashed it by opening 16 tabs in opera and then close opera, so it could be just opera crashing.....
The verry first freeze could have been the result of already corrupted data in memory since I didn't soft-reset it after I switched SD-cards...
So I still have some hope that formatting did the trick... some....

Yes indeed I misread the tiny 6 for a 8 .... Re-examining it with a magnifying-glass, I could just see the difference
So it is an 8 GB class 6 micro SD card...

Last night i did install Black Pearl 1.7. This morning tried to open the device from StandBy mode, same problem No response. Tommorow morning I'm sending the device to the Sevice (local Reseller here in Greece) . Tired to flash again and again, in order to find a ROM that the device acts normally
Besides that, IMO this is not a ROM issue, nor other software issue. It is a HARDWARE problem

I am sorry to hear that the ROM did not help.
My experiments failed also. Yesterday my Blackstone froze again.
I agree with you that it must be a hardware problem. (again after using close all...)
I think I will have to turn in my device too then, and go back to my Tytn II.
Damn, i didn't like my Tytn II from the start. (well.. from week three or so...) But at least I can trust it not to freeze on me...
Does anyone have any sugestions? anything we didn't try before?
Plz. help.

[Q] WP7 keeps rebooting

I come from magldr 1.12 and I installed 1.13, after that I went straight to usb flasher and flashed a new rom but it keeps bootlooping, starting over and over again. anyone had this problem too? maybe some tips?
if it doesn't work after five more flashes, I'll put it back to stock first

hmm, I found the problem, I bought a new SD card today, this one is compactible, older SD cards aren't..
i would try a differnt sd card i havent had a single problem with wp7 since i flashed first time
Same here I have this problem with a Sandisk Class2 16GB restarting every 5 min or so tried everything formatted reformatted and nothing If I keep playing with the phone is no problem is look and unlock the screen normally but when is going in sleep mode by itself I can't start-it again everything is dead buttons lights don't came up, I give up and install a Sandisk class2 8GB no problems at all everything fine and no more restarting which led me to think not all the cards are good with WP7.

Your phone is the problem, It happened to mine and I went back to android, kept rebooting, then went back to 6.5 and it kept rebooting, turns out if it does that its a hardware problem and you have to RMA....

nothing todo with how old it is, its todo with random read/write speeds, for instance, most newer cards with high class values like 6 or 10 use some odd mechanics that increase sequential speeds but lower random speeds, that is the issue, if the card at any point isnt able to give the spec needed then it has issues, in some cases its only minor in others it wont even be detected.

evidently not, op stated the SD card was the issue and is now fixed when he replaced it.
interesting - I've now tried two WP7 ROMs on my UK HD2 - LEO70 and XBmod-WP7-V1.04b, with MAGLDR1.13 and 2.08.HSPL and 2.15.50.14 radio and got stuck in a boot loop with both.
The only thing that's fixed it was removing the SIM and both worked fine with any SD card I try. Doesn't make for a great phone though.....
Anyone got any thoughts?
EDIT - turns out it was my old T-Mobile SIM that was the problem. Have since tried two newer SIMs and both work fine with no bootloop!

lol whats with these bold statements?
how do you know its overheating? where did the overheating comment come from? the OP didnt say as anything to the sort
you cant assume that because you have had or have read about an issue with overheating which produces these symptoms that every time a phone does the reboot thing has the same issue
however lets take it out of context, yes if you have an overheating device for a along period of time then its not going to be good, but heavy usage of the device, heavy WIFI or HSDPA usage will all make the phone rather warm, charging the battery will make it warm, if your device gets too warm it may just crash, which happens in 6.5 as well.
Hmmmmmm ?
Can I just say that I think this forum is absolutely amazing... I managed to get my HD2 running windows phone 7 in only about an hour...
I too also have this issue, but at the moment I have taken the memory card out and just reading away here.... now am not a newbie when it comes to technology, just a newbie when it comes to this forum lol
Judging with what has been said the Memory Card used in the Windows Phone 7 needs to have fast enough random access memory in order for it to operate with the phone (As If it was Solid State Memory in the actual phone)
So... having read as well from georo - I give up and install a Sandisk class2 8GB no problems at all everything fine and no more restarting which led me to think not all the cards are good with WP7
So I am now going to take a wee journey out tonight to try and find a memory card similar to what georo has said... a Class2 8GB Sandisk...
If I too can get it working with this card then we could maybe begin a small list that works with WP7 on HD2

From my readings, it's NOT a matter of speed of the SD card. Although, a class 2 card is pretty slow...you should consider at least a class 4 or 6.
But, I digress, the issue with the rebooting has to do with the compatibility of the SD card and WP7. For some unknown reason, people have had to try a hit-or-miss approach to finding a SD card that works.
I have been fortunate that my 3C Pro 16GB Class 6 card worked right off the bat. And you might want to read up on the meanings and speeds of the various SD Class designation before spending money on a Class 2 card.

Ok thanks for the reply dude... as I have said I will need to get upto speed with this stuff... at the moment I have a standard SanDisk 2GB MicroSD... so suppose if I do go and buy a class 4-6 it will be money well spent anyway as I can always revert back to the old WM6.5 ... or just claim it didnt work and take it back...
Just on a wee note... I noticed that the HD7 which is pretty much the same phone runs on a Class 2 MicroSD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883582)
Surely this should work?
also on this note... the card that comes out of a Stock 8Gb HD7 is a 8Gb Sandisk, Class 4...

[Q] WP7 on HD2 reboots itself

Just installed W7 on my HD2 and it reboots itself every 15-20 min. Whether is plugged in or not. I've checked the SIM card. No problems there.I have 3 batteries, original power cable & 1 extra one.
Here is my observation. If I change the colors from default Dark/Brown backround to lets say white/blue - once it reboots then it comes back to the original state of colors.
Not sure if the backround has an impact. There are no other errors to check. By the way this is my 2nd W7 install. First one was the same
If I put back 6.5 the phone is solid. Has anyone experienced this?
Have tried to see whether your sd card is compatible or not ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912904
Try to put another sd card.
I have 2 16GB SanDisk originals that came with the HD2 phone. Also I bought another 10Class 16GB. Same story
So if the problem is the SD then by removing it completely then the phone would not reboot anymore? Just curious to see if thats the issue
You can't remove the sd card permanently, WP7 requires an sd card.
I'm not sure but several people have been reporting issues with the original sd card.
I'm using a Kingston 8GB class 2 without any problem. Maybe the problem is with the ROM itself ? Try to flash it again or try to flash moon light or ver 1.00 ?
I'm not sure if we have the same problem, but I narrowed it down to the radio. It seems when you have poor reception, and try to use data, the phone just reboots. I didn't want to use the latest radio because of short battery life, but it just works... It fixed my weird reboots. Try playing with radios. Also note that you might get a couple freezes/reboots until everything is settled
i had the same problem.. i installed it without the sdcard...and now it doesn't reboot...
It's your sd card buddy.
not really
In my case I have win 6.5 original, from vodafone, the phone is simlock free,
no sd card, no extra programs, just original resetted to factory, and still restaarting 2-3 times a day.

[Q] Phone freezing/rebooting

Ive tried several WP7 NAND builds in this forum but everyone seem to give the same issue far as it randomly freezing and rebooting especially when the screen is off, Is anyone else having this issue and if so is there a solution?
Phone: TmoUS Leo
Radio: 2.15.50.40
Build: Frantic HD WP7
Yes ive had this same problem...would also like to know if there are any solutions...thanks
Try another SD card. Go for a SanDisk one as they are more compatible. WP7 doesn't accept many SD cards and you both have the typical symptoms of an incompatible card

Yes, and yes.
Random reboots are most likely caused by your MicroSD-card (WP7 will not work well with some cards). The only solution: try a different card.
There's a thread where people report which cards worked for them here.
ignore that thread
There is absoluetly no way of know what card will work.
statistically you have a better chance with a sandisk class 2 or 4 BUT that is not always the case, you may have a generic home brand class 10 that works but more likely you'll have better luck with those class 2 and 4 cards
No one is really sure why WP7 is having issues, the best idea so far is that its random read/write speeds that are the key, some class 10 cards have massive sequential write speeds but slower random reads which is where WP7 comes unstuck
Also, just because some one has a sandisk 8GB class 6 that works fine doesnt mean you will have the same luck with the exact same model because different cards use different components, even within the same make and model.
For example i have two 4GB sandisk class 6 cards, purchased on the same day at the same shop, both cards are model identical, one works fine the other has issues such as restarting, wifi not working and lagging
and to throw another spanner in the works i have a card that works perfectly, up until i fill the card to a certain point, then it starts all this restart business, if i dump a few hundred MB of music on the card taking it past that point it works fine . The card was been tested on the PC and i cant see anything wrong with it.
So, that leave me to think that for some reason when WP7 was trying to access that portion of the card for SYSTEM usage it was perhaps too slow to use or had some other issue, i can play music from that area however.
I just installed WP7 on my HD2 earlier today, was running fine for about.. 3-4 hours, I guess I was on it a good bit, not really letting it go to sleep for an extended period of time, but after I stopped messing with it, I noticed it rebooted itself, then it got froze on the lock screen, until it rebooted itself randomly again,, and then it did a complete wipe of my data on another random reboot?
Is this due to the SD card?
And can I just remove the SD card to fix this until theres some guarenteed cards that work with WP7?
or will it not boot without the SD card in?
Thanks alot.
it will work without SD but laggy and you will only have about 150MB of space.
good luck waiting for a card, its supposed to be unremovable so i doubt you will see over the counter products, im afraid its take a guess or buy an HD7
oop! yeah probably your SD
It is your sd card, sorry. Try a new one.
so nothing to do with how you format the sd card?

the WP7 doesn't format the SD in options menu.
I tried this soluction and the phone appears more stable:
1- go in the
(caution----your data will be eraser)
settings -> about -> reset your phone
2- then the phone reset and after the MALGRD screeen push VOL UP and VOL DOWN
to appears the screen when you press the VOLUP to eraser all data and recovery the phone in factory status.
3- after this the phone start with the SD clear.
my phone don't freeze more after this steps.

I think your Sdcard does not match to Wp7.
Change another sdcard and try again
I am using Sandisk 8m that for your reference.

I have 2 cards thay are both sandisc one is 16 gb the other is 4 gb i think thay are both class2 but am unsure thare is a logo that says c2 in the top right of the cards
however I dont think thats what the probulm is!
but am unsure.
I realy hope someone will help me figure this out.
Are you having this problem with BOTH SD cards, or just one?
The SD card, WP7, HD2 combination is very finicky. My Kingston 8GB c2 seemed to be functioning perfectly fine, with the exception of 6-7 hours battery life w/ little to no usage. I also noticed that it took a while for apps to install at the last step of a hard reset on 7720.
Thinking that Kingston was good, I upgraded to 16GB c4. The device wouldn't even boot past the splash screen after leaving magldr. So, I changed to a PNY 16gb c4 and got to see just how badly my 8GB had been performing. The apps that took a while to install at the last step of hard resetting Mango were installed in an instant. And my battery life tripled. I don't have to worry about my phone dying anymore.
So, it's very likely that your SD card can be causing the random reboots. Use dev_storagelock to unlock the card you currently have installed. Perform a hard reset. Stop the process when magldr starts and swap cards. Allow the new card to be integrated into WP7 and see if the reboot problem persists.

It's probably not the ROM and most likely the SD card. That's what WP7 does. It's super picky.

i did a haed reset and cleard all crc data the problum still ocurs
the only diffrence to both of the sd cards a i have is size
so unless i was to go buy a higher class im gessing buying another would be pointless
the weard thang is this didnt alwase happen
i used bttfv1 no problums
had bttfv2 then all sorts of problums started happening first time i flashed most of the updates with zune
then was forced to start from scrach agin after i messed up my registry with advanced config
second time i upgraded to bttfv2 i used the one shot method and im not exactly sure but i think thats when i started haveing the issue.
You allready know what's wrong, it's the SD cards you've been using. Keep trying with class 2\4\6 Sandisk cards.

what was that a sarcastic remark? & no i dont know whats wrong because as i stated before i didnt have this problum before my previous installation.
i am useing sandisk class2 16gb i am useing the card that came with the phone i realy dont understand why that would be the issue?
whats the best card to get then?
Your SD card would be the issue if the card or some sectors on the card lacks the required random read\access speed. This could very well create problems on one installation while working seemingly fine on another.
I've already said what cards I believe gives you the highest chance of working, you'll just have to keep trying with those. Theoretically you could also try reinstalling the whole thing and hope that no critical files ends up on the lower speed sectors of the card, but I don't know what chance that would have of working.
The only marketable difference between the cards may be size, but WP7 doesn't really care about that. When I we say that it's picky, we really mean it. You can have great success with one card, and then put another in of the same brand different class and WP7 will no longer boot. SD cards affect battery life and everything.
By an SD card from Fry's, if there's one around. They've got a 15 day return policy w/o restock fee. I only went through 2 cards finding the right one to upgrade to, but was prepared to go through their entire selection and the sales girl even told me to not feel bad about doing it.
Hi,
probably you must calibrate battery or yours SD card not works correctly...

I had the same issue bu not due to Sd card
I have a Kingston 16GB calss2 works perfect
The issue was that the original rom was American English
if i istall like it is everything works good and since i/m greek i can use also the buld in greek keypad with no problem
BUT when i change to my language the full functions of the phone , then it keeps
restarting byitself ....
For me no problem to work with the english menu at all , so i keep the device in english and works.
