I just received my touch HD yesterday and found an annoying bug when I was trying to disable 3G (since I am in the US). Maybe I was going about it wrong, but here is the problem:
* When I disable HSDPA/HSUPA in the connection settings, WinMo will infinitely reboot.
I searched but the only infinite reboot problems I found were related to the colored task bar.
This isn't a huge problem, I just won't disable that anymore, but I thought I would let you know since I didn't see anything about it in the forum. I could have missed it though. If this is a re-post you are welcome to delete it.
That's interesting.... by infinite boot do you mean, it keeps rebooting and not letting you do anything until you do a hard reset? I too am in the states and have disabled that option, and I don't have problem. However, what does happen (and I haven't seen anyone post about this, maybe because they haven't figured out why it's doing it yet), is that the phone reboots when it looses signal (I'm pretty sure of this, as the only time my phone ever reboots itself are in three exact locations, where i get 1 bar max). I'm not sure if this is related to the Data connection either (as I do use one). I'd love to see a discussion => solution on this problem.

YES! I think you have solved my reboot issues!
I also live in the US and on some downtime I was fooling around with my HD and also discovered where I could disable HSDPA/HSUPA and thought since it is not needed and may use resources/power I turned it off. Sadly I started getting reboots during what seemed like weak network connections (1 bar or less). I have a few tweak programs and have changed several settings but didn't know where to begin, and would not have thought about turning HSDPA back on, to figure this one out without hard resetting.
Thanks for your post! I will turn HSDPA back on and hope that solves my problem.
Did you happen to notice if it wanted to do it with low network signals?

Well, I turned both of them back on, and let you know if it will get rid of the 'random' restarts
Yes, it would infinitely reboot until I hard reset the device.
It would boot most of the way into windows, load up TF3D, then reboot.
I have hard reset about 3 times today, everything worked fine each time until I disabled HSDPA/HSUPA (via Start->Settings->Connections->Advanced Network)
Each time I hard reset, I didn't install any programs, just disabled that setting and... boom infinite reboot. (Everything worked fine until that setting changed. Phone/SMS/...)
EDIT: @Svegetto - For me they weren't 'random' reboots, it was a reboot loop.
My Device
CE OS: 5.2.20757 (Build 20757.1.4.0)
ROM Version: 1.14.405.3 (22273) WWE
Radio: 1.09.25.14
Protocol: 52.49a.25.26U
In case it matters...
I was getting the same thing with a weak signal. I was in a hotel where when I got in the elevator bam, it would reboot. Did it pretty much every time.
I was in another location where I was not getting any signal and it was stuck in that same reboot loop. After noticing it would happen while it was trying to locate a signal I removed the sim card and it would reboot fine. Until now I was leaning toward a hardware problem (that I didn't cause) that may have involved the cellular radio overloading the system during a weak signal when it is throttled at max power output. Good radio signals cause it to throttle back to save power so I was about ready to send it in for repair! I even tried a different sim card, SD card, and battery with no change. Now remembering that I did turn off that HSDPA setting, and have since turned it back on, I will be hopeful that my problems are over!
This site is great!! Thanks guys/gals!

Reboots
WOw.. i never thought i would find a thread.. i thought i was the only one. Everytime I get on a plane... and thats a lot... when i arrive at the next airport... searching for signal and then reboot loop... infinite frustrating reboot loop.... solution... take out sim... reboot... clear storage.. insert sim... restore from week old backup...
If this HSDPA thing solves my problem.. i will buy someone a beer.
Well I have just 'tested' the 'random' reboot at one of the spots that it would normally reboot, and no reboot (although I've never experienced the infinite reboot, mine would usually reboot once, than maybe a second time, but I'm confident to say that it was due to the HSDPA/HSUPA setting which is really funny cause for the past 3 months I've been waiting for someone to post a thread on the topic)
But yes, it would seem that even if you're in the states and will never get to use it, leave HSDPA/HSUPA enabled (or if someone feels like doing further testing to find out if it's just HSDPA or HSUPA that causes this issue, or both)
Well done all around!

USA Touch HD Users-Beware!
For what it's worth, turning HSDPA back on totally fixed the reboot problem. It has not happened a single time since doing that.
For anyone doing a thread search to troubleshoot this problem it is under:
Settings - Connections - Advanced Network - HSDPA tab
If you were so inclined, as I was, to turn it off thinking it might save battery life or something, don't do it! Low network signal strength will cause it to reboot.

Yes re-enabling HSDPA/HSUPA solves the problem. I started a thread on this last week when I first got my HD:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3269307#post3269307
And here goes some others with the same problem:

I love this site!!
I've been having the same problem and it makes sense now, everytime I phone would reboot I had almost no service. I don't know why I didn't notice the pattern.
I rooted the Kindle Fire, but did find it to be that useful nor stable, so i removed the root. Rcently, I found that I wasn't able to get it autocorrect or auto capitalize whenever I typed something.
is it just me? Whenever i typed dont, it literally only types dont and not don't. (unless i physically put the ')
Even auto cap doesn't work. I would like "i love you" but it ends up not capping the I?
Can somehow help me fix this? it's getting a little annoying. and Yes, I did turn them on in the settings, it STILL doesn't work. But the key sound does when I turned that on. I feel like rooting could have done something here.
no one knows how to fix this? I already re-installed the stock rom like 2 times already, still has the same issue. Doesn't automatically fix my words and doesn't auto capitalize either. Typing comes really annoying.
never seen that - maybe turning off - rebooting - turning on refreshes the settings
sorry no more ideas ...
Hey guys,
Sorry if this has been asked before, I did a search and didn't see anything.
A few weeks ago I noticed that my 2013 Flo was randomly powering down. I have noticed that this only occurs when the screen is shut down and it is allowed to go into deepsleep or hibernation as it will only occur after the screen has been off a few minutes. There is sometimes a series of four beeps after which the device powers down. If I turn on the screen after the beeps it comes up with the shutting down dialog as if I manually shut it down. I have tired to use various log recorders but all of them keep the system in wakelock and thus prevent this from happening.
I was wondering if anyone else has been having this issue, or know of any methods to debug this, and if it is a hardware issue thus meaning I should return my device or not.
Also: I am running PA 3.98 rather then stock but do not believe it to be caused by the rom.
There are some threads where people mention this happening because the "keep wi-fi on during sleep" setting not being checked as the root cause.
What's yours set to?

It was set to never. Just put it on always. I'll see if that fixes it. Thanks
This just happened again so I dont think that fixed it.
Sorry for bumping this but it still is happening and I think I have tried everything. Does anyone know a way to fix this or should I try and swap my device for a new one and hope that works?
Swap it IMO
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app
My situation:\
-I'm connected to wifi
-I leave the area without turning wifi off, so I lose connection obviously
-When I'm in a new area and want to search for networks it finds nothing, and sometimes the settings app force closes
-It only fixes itself when it connects to a wifi I previously had a connection on.
What is this? It is driving me nuts! It is happening on every rom..
I've even went back to a factory image and did the cleanest rom install you could imagine, but the situation is still there..
if someone could help me out that would be great
Do you use Xposed or do you have any root apps that influence WiFi?

No I haven't got any apps that handle connections. It is really frustrating though when I'm in a new area and want wifi..
Any suggestions? Cause all I am being told is to flash a factory image and start over. Which is what I have done several times.
Can you get a logcat when this happens? I suspect that in your case it might be a hardware problem.
My phone is auto calling 911 when I reboot or soft reboot, but it shows on screen as "Unknown". One of my apps is triggering a 911 call and masking it as "Unknown". Even if I reboot in airplane mode the moment I toggle airplane mode off, it proceeds to making the call to "Unknown"(911), and I have to rush to end it before 911 dispatch calls me back. So can anyone help me with trying to monitor which apk is responsible for triggering that call?
It only does it once after a reboot, and won't do it again till the next reboot(or soft reboot). I attached my phone info. I am rooted and I recently installed Xposed Installer, the framework and some modules, see attached photos for a list of the most recently downloaded apps.
Also, I am currently running a scan for any malware etc via Lookout. I have OS Monitor but can't really understand what it's showing me. Please help, I was able to soft boot earlier with no problem, now my phone auto calls.
you're posting in the wrong forum..
Oh sorry. Where should i post this?
well, you could start by posting in a thread that your phone belongs to; this is a Note 4 thread
Oh sh!t. Lmao. I am an idiot. Sorry i thought this was note 3. I was sleepy when i posted this. Ill take it down.thanks
