Phone reboots when screen is off - Desire HD General

My HTC desire hd reboots as soon as the screen times out automatically or when the power button is pressed.
my phone is rooted and this happens on the stock rom and every other rom that i have tried including cm7, arhd, miui etc.
the phone wont reboot if music is playing and the screen is off.
i have tried cpu awake apps which dont work. overclocking, undervolting, changing radios but nothing seems to work.
please help!

Since you change radios I'm assuming you know how to do a manual full wipe without using scripts.
4ext or cwm?
Try to reproduce the behaviour without the sd card.

I flashed radios where you just have to flash those zip files and that's it. I don't know how to do a full wipe without scripts. Can you guide me please?
And I have 4ext.
And thanks a lot for replying. I really appreciate it. Thanks.

It could be harware related, but let's first rule out software.
Remember to try without the sd card and/or wipe the sd card.
Try it with a stable gb rom.

Would you like me to clear dalvic cache, clear stats and format the system usb and flash a new Rom and format the SD card?

One last time.
When did it start happening? What did you do when you first noticed the issue? Which was the last rom it worked without any issues?
1- download a new rom.
2- full wipe (except sd card) (its in the guide how to full wipe)
3- flash.
4- test.
Doesn't work?
1- try it without the sd card.
Doesn't work?
1- backup your sd card.
2- full wipe including sd card.
3- mount sd card to pc to transfer the rom (and only the rom) from pc to sd card.
4- flash rom.
Doesn't work?
Come back and report what you did, and all that nifty stuff.

Ok thanks, I will try all this and report back soon.

Sd card help

After installing miui.us 1.7.22 the sd card won't mount to the phone. And after going to the backup of stock ROM the phone starts up saying sd card unexpectedly removed. And even after doing a factory reset and wiping both cache the problem still persists.
Can anyone help me?

Well, if removing it and replacing it while booted into the rom doesnt work,
and neither did a full wipe, I would say you could try a different rom, to see if you get that same problem, and if you dont, then you know its the ROM. I would also try reflashing.
If no one else has had this issue, then it could just be something you did
So it ended up being the sd card itself. After reformsting the card it worked. Thanks though

[Q] Problem with MIUI

My MIUI rom is MIUI-108050 version and though it's pretty nice when working, I can't enter the Market without it crashing and I can't get it to enter Bootloader or Recovery. Titanium Backup nor Clockwork Recovery nor Rom Manager are available - for some reason they are gone or not accessible. Titanium Backup shows in my App Manager, but it doesn't show in App tray. So my Nook Color is stuck with a barely working MIUI Rom. Does anyone have a suggestion for getting to a different Rom or for getting back to stock?
I briefly tried MIUI and had pretty much the same problem. I read somehwere else that you have to do a complete wipe when you first install it. I haven't bothered going back to confirm if that works, but it might be worth a shot.
Make a new SD card with CWM image on it. I have had great success with eyeballer's image and instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227
Then load zip file one of the roms on SD card. 1.11.4 is the latest MIUI rom available at miui.us (my rom of choice)
http://roms.miui.us/
Turn off nook. Load SD card. Turn on nook. In mounts and storage (if it isn't there on initial.screen, tap the power button to go back) format data, format system. Clear cache. Then install zip file of rom.
If my directions don't make sense, post back and I will give you a very detailed list of steps.

I had similar problems with MIUI on NC. I finally had to move to a different ROM. I currently running Phiremond 7.1 and it is very stable.

[Q] I think my partitions are messed?

My data partition likes to wipe itself every now and then (weekly). So I am thinking about using RSD to flash back an original stock rom (i know fruit cakes are close, but this is a different issue) in order to fix things i may have broke, and then go back to CM7.
Any suggestions or guides on how to do so? No one seems to have my problem, and no one really comes up with a solution.
Have you tried doing a full wipe/erase, reboot, then install the ROM again?
I would suggest:
Copy ROM to external SD card
Power off and remove SD card
Boot to CWM Recovery and full wipe
Power off
Insert SD card
Boot to CWM Recovery and install ROM from SD card.
Ive never personally had that problem, but give it a try. Also try a different ROM if that doesnt work. It may be a dodgy ROM.

Need someone who knows this phone.. (Revert back to stock)

So.. After owning this phone for a year, I still love it to death..
But after many roms and such its been kinda slowing down on me..
what I would like to do, because I heard it helps a lot, is to revert back to the original software, then put a rom on fresh..
I'm running Synergy Rom now.. And it just locked on me.. It keeps rebooting, so I figure now is the time I do this..
Questions..
I will no have to lose my root? right?
How do I do this now? I'm using clockwork and assume I put the original rom(or zip?) on my sdcard, then go into recovery, and run it?
Correct?
I also ran a script file (v6supercharged)
I assume I will have to redo that as well?
Thanks guys!!
Have no phone right now, so would like to get started asap..
Again!! MUCH THANKS!!
As long as you fully wipe using Amon Ra, you should be able to make most updated ROMs run fast on your phone. Perhaps try reflashing Synergy. I also recommend flashing a new ROM, but reinstalling apps without data. Perhaps that is contributing to the sluggishness.

Thanks.. But I've been told over and over, its sometimes good to revert back to stock..
Wipe/clear, Install stock rom (or its an .exe. or something?) then wipe/clear again, and put the rom on..
Anyone have the stock file??
Do I let it update or no ??

That's ridiculous. A wipe is a wipe.
In fact, using the RUU (.exe) is riskier since it flashes radios and such, and if something goes wrong during, you have a bricked phone. Just do a full wipe including cache/dalvik cache and install your ROM of choice, along with a good kernel.

If you rooted with unrevoked or revolutionary, you will need this file to return to stock, and yes, you will temporarily lose root.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38127313/Un....15.00.0808_NV_2.15_release_220182_signed.zip
Change the name to PC36IMG and run it from the root of your SD card through the bootloader. You will lose your root, but your security flag should still be off (S-OFF) so that you can quickly regain root after running this file, after changing it to PC36IMG in place of the first one. (It is Amon-RA and not clockwork. You can reflash clockwork later if you want, which I don't recommend.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38127313/Root 2.3.3/PC36IMG3.08.zip
Also, you might need to flash a superuser app, in case you need root inside the stock ROM. Here is an old one, but it should still work for you.

Like the previous users said, it's probably not necessary, but I'm just giving you what you asked for.
hmmm.. so now its not necessary ? I was always under that impression..
Ok..
Anyone know what the new HOT rom is ??
Gigerbread please ?
Like I said I was using Synergy..
Used Fresh before and a couple others..
whats the hot rom ??
FYI I also partitioned my SD card, or whatever its called.. For the gigerbread thing..
Put MikG 3.0 on it and call it done. Rock solid ROM, great battery life, and awesome tweaks built in. It will be like an all new phone. Enjoy

This is why I stress making a nandroid of your stock/rooted immediately after Rooting.
You may want to simply reformat your SD Card. I've been having a few issues and realized it's been months since I cleaned up and reformatted/repartitioned my SD Card, so I plan on doing that tomorrow and flashing a new ROM
Use "Best Method" for Cleanest way (Wiping)
OLDER: Froyo v2.2 (3.70.651.1) http://keetsa.com/files/RUU_SuperSo...15.00.11.19_NV_1.90_release_161482_signed.exe
Most Current version is "Gingerbread v2.3.3 (4.54.651.1).EXE" http://www.multiupload.com/LLV12N2WU8
with "xxx.EXE file", You'll need to Run it on Widows and install on Phone thru Micro USB plug.
BEST Method to install Most Current STOCK ROM:
1. Download + Rename to "PC36IMG.zip" on SDCARD + (Boot into Recovery +Install) "AmonRa Recovery v3.11-gnm" http://dl.dropbox.com/u/34586908/PC36IMG-ra-supersonic-3.11-gnm.zip
2. (Boot into Recovery), WIPE these 8 lines (All data/factory Reset, /data, /cache, /sdcard/.android_secure, /system, Dalvik-cache, battery stats, rotate settings)
3. Download + Rename to "PC36IMG.zip" on SDCARD + (Boot into Recovery +Install) "GB v4.54.651.1.ZIP" http://db.tt/Ck6AB18E
If you want non Stock Recovery + Rooted:
1. Rename your "(AmonRa Recovery v3.11-gnm) PC36IMG.zip" to "PC36IMG.zip" again. (Boot into Recovery +Install). (cus Stock Rom changed you to STOCK Recovery)
2. (Boot into Recovery + Install) "Root (Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed).zip" www.mediafire.com/?16a07x3800wvak6
No need to revert to stock.
Use vr superwipe
Save the contents of your sd card to a computer, then reformat the sd card
Wipe everything on the wipe menu, then flash a new ROM.
copy the titanium backup directory back to your sd card and restore apps without data first, then restore data of any games or what not.
Problems should be fixed.

You have a lot of options here. As the preceding posts may have eluded to. Depending on how consistent and deep your issues are, there are different steps that need to be taken.
You can always wipe the ROM and reflash. Do a dirty flash, by just wiping cache and dalvik, then reflashing. That tends to be my temp work around sometimes.
Worst case I've seen is reverting to stock. Unrooting. And starting back over.
With any new ROM you'll need to reflash your mods. Becareful tho of what mods you're using. Not all are compatible across the board.

Did reformatting the SD card help? I just realized and did the same thing. It had been a good 3-4 from changes and about a year since I formatted my card.
It helps a lot. I reformat mine about every 3-6 months

[Q] phone does not turn on. it goes directly to cwm recovery mode

Good day,
I am having problem with my lg optimus l3 e400. I just rooted it the other day to solve the memory problems of the phone. It has been working fine until today. What happened was, it just turned off and whenever i turn it on, it goes directly to cwm recovery, which has been installed during the root process thru ROM manager app. I also found out that the SD card is corrupted. I had to format the SD card and tried pasting stock ROM's but it still doesn't boot and still goes to recoovery everytime I turn it on. I tried to format the device, the cache, and the other format options in recovery mode but the issue is still not solved. Can anyone please help? And if possible, give me a step by step guide because I'm kinda new at this. Thanks.

If you highlight the reboot option and then press the power key what happens?Does the phone reboot?If not somethings gone wrong...Anyway try flashing another custom ROM(cyanoid,for example @linuxxx)Does CWM recovery mount the SD card?Did you flash SD merge and you aren't using a SD merge compatible kernel?Anyway you can't flash stock roms from the phone.You must use the good old KDZ(How many times did he save me....)

Can you guys give me a link? i'm having a hard time looking for stock roms and i don't even know how to distinguish stock rom and custom rom. the sd card that was working before the happened got corrupted but after inserting it to another phone and formatting the sd card, it seems to be working and the sd card can be mounted. i'm not sure with the sd merge compatiility with the kernel but it worked for a few days so i think it is compatible. the phone does not reboot. whenever i reboot it or turn it on, it just goes to recovery mode. thanks.
