hi all,
i having my 1st Android phone (HTC Legend), but my set suffering Standby on Death (SOD), not sure if the right term. When it on standby, I not able to wake the phone; only way to remove the battery and on the phone again.
However, during it 'freeze' mode, try calling the phone; won't ring but caller doesn't get any engaged tone keep trying connect tone.
Please advise if any1 experience the above or any steps I can do.
** Try searching the web, only found SOD on Win phone.
Cheers.

The same thing happend to me yesterday, for the first time (I pulled out battery to reset it). I had a few random resets last few days, but I do use my legend for app development testing, so i'm not sure if i somehow provoked the problem.
Offtopic, but just looking at logcat output of a normally running Legend you get impression that there are a lot of unfinished stuff, especially HTC applications (news widget is terrible)
I'm also seeing the same random resets on my Legend. Not sure what when wrong. I have a bunch of apps installed but I don't know if this relates to any of them.
It happened again just now. Restarts on daily basis now
just make a hard reset
Ok. I did a hard rest. And i don't want to install any apps, let it run in vanilla flavor for 2-3 days and see if it happens again.
If it does, that means it must be caused by one of the apps installed before
I had some SOD's, but after a complete clean and reset to original setting, everything disappeared.
Maybe it was a problem coming from installed software...
clean reset, wiped out everything. reset after 15hrs of up time. i'm going to RMA this thing
Hi all - first post here...
I have not long had my first HTC handset - and I really like it, but nearly every day I get this 'SOD'...as described here.
I had to remove the battery to wake it up again only this morning.
I have noticed, that it only seems to do this when it can't recieve the weather data (under the HTC clock)? the handset never seems to hang etc while it has this data?
Have others seen this? Could it be a bug?
Why not bring all SOD threads to one?
As I see all SOD's are same on all devices.
There is bunch of symptoms but if you have sod than you are experiencing some or all of the symptoms.
General help is to hard reset few times than flash shipped ROM then hard reset again few times then flash your favorite custom ROM or leave shipped, and reset again few times. And finaly set network to GSM+AUTO in Phone band configuration. Or try to change SIM with another network operator.
All of this helped some people but there is many who did not solve the SOD with this nor anything else.
I know I am posting in more than one thread same thing and it is not double or triple or X posting it is just help request for people who could finaly understand what is problem and help us all.
Sory, and thanks in advance.
Weather is not problem on my device, I did try turn it off, disable auto update of everything .... no difference.
Even I leave it connected to USB and it have the internet connection all time and I do not have SOD, I have DIM of death screen dims not turn of and if I disconect it and pres power to go to stand by or to turn off screen I can not power on device until i pull battery out few times - 4 - 5 timesto be precise or sometimes even more.
I got a new replacement unit and it works fine since. I guess my old unit was really defective

I have had to have my handset replaced now. My SOD contiuned and then the Mic gave up and no-one could hear me in calls - made it unusable as a phone. I also had battrey issues where the phone wouldn't charge and the battery meter read wrong.
All seems fine with this replacement handset.....
First of all, sorry if this thread is out of place, but I'm not sure where else to turn.
My HD2 worked terrifically with FroyoStone 3.2, Hastarin 7.6 up until last Wednesday (5 days) ago. Then I started to experience, and have not been able to fix, serious TS lag issues.
Symptoms: I hit the unlock button, swipe to unlock, and the touchscreen will be responsive if I KEEP using it...if I pause for up to 3 seconds, the screen is no longer responsive. I have to relock the phone, unlock, and then swipe again to get it to work.
The touchscreen works perfectly fine in Windows Mobile 6.5. (Energy 2361X)
Attempts to fix: I've formatted the SD Card inbetween trying all of the following items-
1) Switch to MDJ ROM with MDJ kernel
2) Switch to Bluetopia ROM (0.5, 0.6 & 0.6.1) with Hastarin 8.0 OR 8.1
3) Switch back to FroyoStone 3.2 with kernel that comes with it
4) Update Radio ROM
5) Update to new Energy WinMo ROM -- after running Task 29 first.
Today, I purchased a new SD Card, loaded it with a clean install of Android, still have issues.
Also tried:
1) Turning off all LED notifications
2) Disabling Auto brightness in WinMo and Android
3) Disabled Screen Auto-Rotate
Honestly, I'm all out of ideas, and I hope someone in the community has a way to help out. I find it so odd that the touchscreen works great right after a "wake-up" as long as I keep it constantly stimulated...then fails to respond if I let it sit for more than three seconds. Is this a polling issue?
All ideas are appreciated. Thank you
UPDATE:
Followed another thread that suggests using the exact same WinMo ROM as the Builder -- matched my ROM with cmylxgo's WinMo ROM (author of Bluetopia) after another Task 29...no fix.
More Information
UPDATE 2:
Also tried 32K clusters and 64K clusters when formatting the card. Problem exists with either size.
There are G-Scripts to disable the G-Sensor and then re-enable it without rebooting.
If you want to jump to the extreme and want to remove all the sensors entirely.
Code:
su
rm -rf /system/lib/hw/*.sensors.so
Terminal
Thanks for your quick reply.
Unfortunately, I'm not the best with working with Linux/Terminal commands -- I tried typing in your code, and it returned that there was no such file/folder as -rf, and then I removed that section, and it said that it could not find the system/...
So obviously, there's something I'm missing, or an error in the syntax, that I cannot debug.
Any help is appreciated.
Are you having any data freezes or are you on an area with poor to no signal? I get really bad system lag when I loose signal while my phone is trying to download. Ppp will freeze and the phone will be unresponsive till reboot. Only way I avoid this is to turn off data if I got into a building I know I will loose connection in.

Updates
Thank you for your reply --
I checked into the disconnects being an issue by enabling Airplane Mode and seeing if I still had the same results, and unfortunately I do. I tried by disabling the Wifi and Mobile network separately, and still same issues.
But, here's an update on the issues:
Installed TYTUNG's NexusHD2-FRG83 V1.6, and this thing is very, very lightweight. Great battery life, great data (went to sleep, woke up, and not only was my phone still on...but I didn't have to reset data to check email...nice). The issues still remain. These are the newest things I've tried:
1) Remove Boxwave screen protector
2) Run from Airplane Mode.
I did however notice something really, really important: when the screen freezes, if I simulate a multi-touch gesture (pinch to zoom, etc), sometimes it wakes up! This is not a guaranteed thing (like 60%), but definitely something to work with.
Also, I noticed that one time that the touchscreen stopped responding, I tried the multitouch, no help...but I stayed on it. Multitouch tapped like crazy for a solid 6 seconds...then tried to shut the screen off -- and that button didn't respond. It was as if I saturated some bus of some sort that it had to clear out before it could finally shut the screen off.
Finally, I've noticed that the screen just needs to shut off for the touchscreen to unfreeze -- not go into a full lock situation. So, if the screen goes black, and I hit the lock key immediately, it'll unfreeze the TS.
Thanks to everyone who is trying to think of an idea!
i seem to be having the same issues as you right after i wake the phone up to unlock it. locking the phone is a habit for me to try and save as much battery as possible and also to not press any buttons while in my pocket.
im running a cyanogen rom and i changed the setting to allow me to unlock the phone by pressing the center windows key. i noticed that when the phone will not allow me to unlock it i can press the menu key and unlock it but i cannot use the touchscreen at all until i relock and unlock.
sometimes i have to do this a few times before the touchscreen comes back. i was thinking it could be my sd card but this started to happen today. i have been using android on my hd2 daily for the past 12 days without any problems. its weird that it started all of a sudden.
so it seems we still dont have a fix for the touchscreen freeze yet, right ?
Same problem here
Hi, I am experiencing the same problem.
Tried few versions of Android, The same problem repeated itself.
So I had to return to WM6.5 - there it works good. Only I have to reset the phone twice a day :-(
Hope someone will find brilliant solution for the sad problem that prevents using Android...
Well, I have read many thread relating to this but nothing about HD2, so I will show my case.
My HD2 reboot randomly in day, however, after a lot of test, I could point out *WHAT* cause
1. Too hot: When I first buy HD2, although phone could get hot but It never reboot. However, now It will reboot if get hot (too easily). So question is If replacing battery solve problem?
2. Too many applications (RAM issue): The fact not too many, let me show you example, I open SMS, opera with 1 news web tab, google maps and then bingo, *REBOOT* So what s go wrong with my HD2 in this case???
These 2 reboot reason have nothing to do with ROM or Radio or something software relating, I have install nearly every ROM in forum for HD2 (stuck 2 weeks for this test) and no ROM solve problem.
Recover after Reboot:
Well, it really tricks to turn on phone after a random reboot, It stuck in welcome screen and stay there forever how many times I try. The only way to turn on HD2 again is removing battery, let it out for about 2-3 mins (less than will not solve) and then put it back, turn on the HD2 get work again, boot normally. This is really suck, I must assume
----------------------------
So are there any chance to fix these problems without sending HD2 to manufacturer. Any hint is highly appricate
Thanks for help
I had the same problem yesterday. After seaching xda-forums, my conclution is this:
The 3G connection causes the problem. How? I don't know? Can anybody explain?
I disabled the 3D connection and have had no more reboots in 24 hours....
I´ve had reboots with some rom/radio combos.
i just avoided the roms that gave me reboots and the phone has been pretty stable since,
dutty, energie and artemis have all been quite stable.
Yeah i know this rom is meant to be for U8800+(Pro), but i've flashed it and all is working, wifi, ril, 3g, camera, recording, everything (dunno about bluetooth or radio because i dont use that things) but i have an issue (a major one i think).
The only thing its that im having random reboots, speccially when i press the power button to lock the phone, the random reboots didn't happen when the phone was connected to AC or PC so i cannot logcat, dont know whats happen, someone can help me?
Can you give me the link of the rom you used?

Maybe you fixed it? I'm having same problem.
I use the stock rom and I had also random reboots .
Now I have turned off automatic clarity of my screen and look! The random reboots are gone.
It's strange that it relates to each other...
I could not solve the problem, at least for now, but I leave the smart running in the background music without sound, battery depletion is negligible and not the phone reboots, because the link unless it restarted my phone when I left off the touchscreen nothing running on android.
see if it works in your
CM7 Random Reboots
I've been having the same problem, but i found that if I run Terminal Emulator in the background my device does not reboot when I lock the screen. But I still have some random reboots when I'm watching videos on YouTube.
Hi
Recently, I started experimenting with Team Blue Droids Android NAND-Rom on my (Europe, O2) HD2. By experimenting, I mean: "I install it, set it up, be happy with it for a few days, have to reboot for whatever reason, see my phone won't start up, phone starts but loses all its settings, wipe, start over".
After I installed the ROM "for the first times" (as in: after a clean install), I let it rest for a while, then put in my details for the first time setup, letting it rest afterwards again. And just to be sure, I restart the phone several times, each time giving it about ten to twenty minutes to get settled again. Up until this point, no problem.
Problems start occuring after I install some apps (like "Game Dev Story", Slice it, Catan,...) and rebooting the phone afterwards. All of a sudden, my phone tells me that several services (touch, calendar, clock,...) aren't respnding and that I'll have to forcibly end them. Sure enough, even if I try to restart my phone after these messages, the problems stay. Well, sometimes it will restart the "initial setup"-programm again (I'm still figuring out why it chooses to do so and when). After having typed in all my information again, I will finally get to the start-screen (yay!), but not a single programm will work -.- Oh, I don't get any messages about broken services, it's just that the programs I want to start just... *plop* back into oblivion.
Does anybody else hate his or her phone for doing something like this, too?
And most importantly: Does somebody know why this keeps happening? And how to fix it?
get the HD2 Toolkit and task 29 that bad boy. wiping the nand leave you needing to start from scratch (magldr, radio (if needed), CWM, and rom).
anytime ive encountered the services all FC after a flash, ive turned to the toolkit, Task 29, and all was good in my world.
hope this helps. peace
Thank you for your suggestion but that doesn't work either =/ I've already tried it several times...
Bugs bugs bugs........ will they never end??
