Hey guys, I've got a really annoying problem with my hermes.
My battery doesnt seemed to stay charged for more than about 30 minutes, the power just drains out of it. I bought a new battery to see if this would fix the issue, but the same thing happens with the new battery. Sometimes the device gets really hot as well.
I don't think its my Rom or Radio, but I'm going to try downgrading to WM5 just to test it out.
I was wondering if there may be a short somewhere that is causing this to happen?
Has anyone had this happen to them?
Any brilliant ideas as to what could be causing this?
Thanks,
-Kai
It is strange that it dies after 30 minutes!! I cannot think of a functionality that drains the power so fast, however, it possible that it is software related.
Has the device been subjected to high humidity?, could there be something short circuiting somewhere?
I hope it is a software issue that you can easily be overcome with a upgrade/downgrade.
Good luck.

I've been having this problem on & off ever since I got my device, seems to drain faster when running Messenger/Windows Live, I've down graded back to HTC OEM spec from Black Majik to send it in for repair. Now that I'm back on WM5 IPL 1.01, SPL 1.11 Radio 1.38, my batt is even worse than before. Some days my batt will last the whole day other days, without any significant reason I'd find the device warming up in my pocket, I'll find that it has depleted the battery from 90% to 30% in the space of 20 mins. The only way I can prevent the batt from further discharge would be to remove the battery for a few minutes & reinstall it again.
I complained to the local HTC agents last week & they suggested that
i bring in the device for repair. Also my device can no longer connect to my PC via the USB cable always giving me a "USB Device not Recognised" error. My other HTC devices connect via USB without a problem to the same PC. I've also found that at times while trying to re charge the battery the orange light begins to flash after a while instead of steady on, when in this condition my battery is hot enough to fry an egg on. Again I have to remove the battery to correct this situation.
I have flashed various ROMs & radios, some have given slightly better battery performance but marginal, Black Majik was the best but with my latest connectivity problem........I might as well try to send it in to the repair centre. Not sure if this is a Herm200 problem.
Alright, I re-installed the original WM5 operating system and everything seems to be working ok. I kept my old radio, ipl and spl though.
If it continues to function alright I am going to install a new WM6 OS tomorrow and upgrade the SPL and Radio.
I spoke too soon, the battery continued to die after working well for about an hour.
Now I have updated my radio and OS to Black Majik, and I seem to be able to get 4 or 5 hours out of a charge, still nothing near what I used to be able to get.
It seems unlikely that I got 2 bad batteries in a row, but maybe I should try and get another one.
do you have a MicroSD on that device? have you tried to remove it and test it without the microsd in? Do you use Data Connection ( 3G or HSPDA ) ? I´ve been having the same problem. Whem i had wm5 and SHADOW i would have 2 days battery easly... The first time i flashed MAJIK i´ve had battery for 5 or 6 hours. The problem appears from a day to the others, so it cant be a battery problem. Now i travel everywhere with a charger in my pocket
No, there is no MicroSD installed, and I do not have HSDPA or UMTS enabled, so that shouldn't be affecting my battery life.
I've come to the conclusion that it is definately some kind of internal short or something, as the battery, rom, ipl, radio and spl do not seem to affect my battery life in any way.
Looks like I just got myself another expensive paperweight.
Actually it may be simple to fix.
Has it been like this from day 1? if yes, it could be something not fitted properly or a leaking device/connection such as touching something it should not.
Or it may be a piece of mineral dirt where a circuit board cleaner would just do the job.
I just remembered that earlier models with serial lower than HT636xx had problem with screens, it may be related!.
Same issue here. Although it is a relatively recent problem in my case. I have had the device since Last Fall with various Roms....always seemed to get 12 hours of typical use. I charged the device about an hour ago, went out for a 45 min run, made a 25 min phone call and recieved the low batt warning. I am concerned about this. Switching batteries ever two hours is a pain in the a$$. FWIW, I dont use Live or any of its components. Just normal activesyn settings for Push.

Well ... FIXED MINE !!! after upgrading from wm5 to Shadow and Then Majik i was having a lot of problems. My battery would run out in 5 to 6 hours with BT:On WIFI:Off GPRS/3G/HSPDA:On. After installing WM6 ( Official ) i´ve had my tytn running in the same configuration ... and after 14hours .. my battery is at 90%
Hmm, I may have to try installing an official WM6 rom then, although I'm still almost certain its an internal issue, because it get so got sometimes.
The other thing that is concerning me, is the screen on my device seems to go out of alignment quite often (this is new, the device is 11 months old and this is the first time it has happened).
screen aligment is a very well known issue ...
@ invictive,
In this case repositioning or releasing the pressure on the screen may solve your problem.
If there is not hope of repair under warranty, Google for Hermes Screen Alignment and you will find a complete description of how to fix this problem.
Properly test for other reasons before attempting to disassemble the device.
Good luck.
Hey all... first for the record, I'm a longtime lurker here but not many posts, but I'm also "answerman" over at PPCGeeks and HowardForums, probably close to 1000 posts at those sites so I am definitely not new to this world...
Looking to see if anyone else has had this issue: I went from the stock Alltel WM6 ROM to the 3.27 radio and the progression of DCD's ROMs from 2.0.0 to 2.1.0 to 2.2.1... and every one has the same issue for me: when I leave my 6800 plugged into the wall charger overnight, the next morning it is locked up solid and I have to soft reset to get it back.
I'm guessing this has less to do with DCD's ROM and more to do with the radio, but I am just looking for clarification. Anyone else seeing this?
I don't have much installed... the next step would be to hard reset and see if the problem arises with no programs installed, but I haven't gotten to that yet... all I have installed besides Odyssey Mobile are HTC X-Button 1.5, VistaHide battery meter, AIM (which I haven't even opened yet), Total Commander, Opera Mobile 8.65, and nandHP FreeCell. And I have it checking 4 email accounts via IMAP once an hour. It's fine during the day, the problem arises only when I leave it plugged in overnight.
Otherwise, DCD's ROMs have been fantastic... fast, reliable (other than the above issue) and GPS has worked flawlessly from day 1 for me... I use Odyssey Mobile (nav program that came with my Holux GPSlim 236) and I get a lock within about 60 seconds of starting up Odyssey, no need to "jumpstart" the GPS.
26 views and no responses... apparently I am in the minority...
I'd even like to hear "No, I have not had this problem" from someone... that would be useful...

No, I haven't had that problem. I'm on Verizon though so it might make a difference.
I'm also on Verizon and leave my phone in a charging cradle all night with no problems.
i have the problem, but it seems only if i leave IM+ running overnight, if nothing is running it seems to last fine
Had that problem when I used S2U2.
ok, that would seem to rule out the radio then... that was the answer I was looking for...
I am going to leave it off the charger tonight and see if it happens that way...
[I have a AT&T tilt and more often than not, it is locked up solid in the mornings, whenever i leave it on charging overnight.
Well, the plot thickens... since it had a pretty good charge, I left it unplugged overnight and it was fine this morning after 8 hours of nonuse... so it's not a "lockup during idle" thing. Definitely seems to be related to being plugged in.
Next step is to try a different charger, I guess... weird, because this was never a problem until I reflashed the radio and DCD's ROM, and this is the original OEM charger I'm using so there shouldn't be anything wonky there.
I had this issue with DCD 2.0.0 and 2.1.0, but since 2.2.0 came out, the problem has gone away. I'm now running 2.2.4 and still no problems yet. It only seems to happen if the screen turns off. If you uncheck that setting in the power management, you could avoid the issue.

Isn't the current version 2.2.3?
Edit: Just saw the 2.2.4 version for Sprint. My bad.
Yeah, well I tried that... kinda...
I have my power management settings set to never turn the screen off when it is on external power, and usually I manually put it in standby (screen off) when I charge it, but a couple nights ago I tried leaving the screen on all night and it still did the same thing... so...

i have the issue even when the screen is one (i did have the backlight turning off, that would seem an odd thing to lock it up though)

dcd posted a 2.2.4 test for sprint, its in the second post in his thread
i'm still running dcd 2.1.0 here on verizon. i only had the unit lock up overnight once... the first night after reflashing. i had left a wmirc session open and running -- the next morning the unit was locked up solid and needed a soft reset to fix.
since then, i haven't had it do anything wonky while charging overnight at all, but i usually close all apps when it's done for the night and set down to charge.
could still be a radio issue with data connections causing these crashes... not sure. given all the seemingly known issues with radio v3.27, i can't wait for an update to the radio already...

See, that was what I was wondering... the only thing that should be running when it's charging overnight (I'm pretty anal about closing apps when I am not using them) is Messaging to check my email accounts...there are 3 that get checked every 15 minutes via IMAP... I will try disabling the auto send/receive and see if that makes a difference.
I installed 2.2.4 and went to break, came back and my device was locked again. It's hooked to my pc via USB. Not sure if those details help or not. Running Vista Ultimate x64. This didn't appear to happen with 2.2.1 or 2.2.2. Could just be coincidental. Overall, great ROM!
i am having the same, my phone is password protected in the morning when left charging overnight. I am currently using DCD 2.5 but it was also happening using PPCkitchens newest build. After doing a little research it seems to mostly be happening to the Alltel 6800s.
mine usually locks up once or twice during the day, and only when it is in a timed-out/sleep state. I have to push the reset button/hole thing to bring it back, but I have never woken up to it being frozen, but that could be because of my power settings.
Set your screen/power to always stay on when plugged in on external power, but still to time out/off after 1minutes on battery power. You should set it to that, because I let mine charge all night and never wake up with it frozen.
also, when mine does freeze, during the day, the service light is still blinking green, like it still has a signal...i dont get it. you would think that would stop too when it froze. hmm.
it happens to me a few times...seems to happen after a new rom update...but mostly goes away after a few days..i noticed it alot after 3.2.0
i leave it charging and i thinks it just in standby until i push the power button...but its frozen and got to soft reset
i posted about it on this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402920&page=38
My issue is not that the phone is frozen but is actually locked with a password and I have not set any passwords or lock on my phone. I have tried the epst unlock code, and my phone number but it still will not unlock unless I soft reset.
I don't know what the heck is going on with my HTC HD2, but the reboots are getting quite annoying.
Furthermore i noticed it happens when i utilize the cpu heavily.
Mostly with streaming video or playing games.
Have done multiple hard resets, rom updates and even custom roms but nothing seems to work.
Sometimes my phone even reboots(soft resets) after watching 5 whole seconds of youtube
So even directly after a hard reset the problem persists.
I'm totally confused right now(because i have tried everything i could do to fix this problem).
I am thinking could it be the battery not giving enough juice for the task? overheating ? or just faulty hardware?
what do you guys think?
because i noticed that the problem is happening more frequently over time.
Edit: it rebooted even in idle a moment ago (1th time) ???
Similar issue with youtube freeze and reset
I can validate your frustration. I am having problems with my HD2 freezing up as well and doing a soft reset on it's own. So the YouTube app opens up the HTC player and then it will play a few seconds and then freeze up. I also opened an MP4 movie file and view it with the HTC player and that also froze it. Last but not least, I have TomTom and that froze it after 15 minutes last night.
I have seen some postings that Tmobile and HTC will be releasing a new rom to fix some memory leaking issues so perhaps that might be it.
It started happening about a week ago for me. Please post any solutions you might find.
I am on:
OS v.5.2.21889
Mania v.2.5.20121412.1
ROM v.2.10.531.1 WWE
Radio v. 2.08.50.08.2
I have done some trail and error, played around with coreplayer and i noticed that when i set the video quality to FLV medium quality in the buildin youtube app in coreplayer i won't reboot that quick anymore, but after a couple of seconds it will eventually still reboot. If i set quality to high quality/high bandwidth i will reboot much faster (so this let's me think about some kind of memory leak/buffer overflow).
Furthermore luckly i don't have any problems with playing mp4 videos in coreplayer, i have tested this especially because of the youtube reboots, and it will keep playing for 1,5 hour without any problems, so maybe you could try coreplayer and see if that's a solution for your mp4 problem ?
But eventually it would be nice if these problems where sorted out so that the device will work like it is supossed to be
Already tried a TASK29 and a flashing a stock ROM from your SD card?
Ye, have tried task 29 (between each roms, i do use task to make sure that the phone is empty.) and when i went back to my 1.72 stock rom i did flash it from SD, but still no luck.
this happened to me today as i was logging onto the net. it did a full master reset.
Same thing happened to me after the unit froze. I pulled the battery, put it back in an it went into this continuous loop of starting up, going through the first couple of screens and then rebooting. What I eventually found to be the problem was that I had inadvertently bent one of the battery pins when I put the battery back in, not much but just enough to where it wasn't making contact. After I carefully straightened it out the issue was gone and it fired up as usual. I love simple fixes, of course this was after I task 29'd and reflashed which didnt correct the problem.

hmm i only got the problem while i'm watching streaming video through 3g and on usb > active sync > pc data connection / some (cpu intensive) games
with wifi no problems at all, it plays youtube for more then a hour without a reboot, and i tested it multiple times to make sure), and booting is just fine without a single hickup

Hey, thank you @thompsd. This was driving me crazy on my phone. I finally took it back to a TMobile store for replacement and they put me on the phone with support before they would issue a replacement. Of course I was bewildered when they had me take out the battery and put it back in (which I had done a zillion times) and the phone suddenly worked. The person on the phone told me that it was fixed because I had to keep the battery out for at least 90 seconds. This made absolutely no sense, but it was hard to argue with success. I walked out of the store with my head hung low in shame.
Tonight, sitting in an airport lounge waiting for a flight, I noticed that my phone was hung so I pulled the battery to reset it. When I put the battery back in and started it, the phone went into the reboot loop -- displaying the boot screen for a couple of seconds and then shutting down and rebooting. I pulled the battery for 90 seconds. 120 seconds, 5 minutes. No joy. Realizing that this solution made absolutely no sense in the first place, I decided to search around again.
I found your reply in this thread and looked at my battery contacts. One of them was bent. I straightened it out, put the battery back in and the phone booted right up. Now I realize that when I was on the phone with TMobile, I must have put the battery back in that one time in such a way that inadvertently straightened the pin.
Hi all,
I have (maybe) the same problem with my HD2 i.e. when it is "doing something", well not idle, it sometimes restarts itself and then usually will not get out of the cycle of crash/reboot untill I remove the battery and wait for a few minutes before starting it again.
This is always more frequent if I am using a serious application such as sat nav. It also has only happened when the unit is connected to power, either on my desk or in the car (different power sources), but disconnecting it from the power after the cycle has started doesn't help.
I have assumed from the symptoms that it is caused by overheating and so leaving it switched off for a period allows it to cool.
I have got a return packet from Vodafone to send it for repair but I am loath to do this as it is likely to take 10 days and I suspect I might either get a recon unit back or "no fault found".
Does anyone think this could be battery related? If so I would buy a 2nd battery and test it.
Cheers, Gordon
I can confirm having the same problem.
Using BattClock (which shows a.o. the battery temperature) I was able to establish that the resets and reset loops happen once the battery temperature exceeds 31-32°C.
Contacted HTC support and received reply that the phone qualifies for repair.
PS. My wife just suggested providing me with a cooler bag, so I can enjoy reset-free phone during summer heatwave...
I had similar behavior, but it was due to the new ROM release (4/28/10). I loaded the official T-Mobile release date ROM (2/19/10) and the problem went away.
L.B.
Yesterday my battery charge got very low and shut the phone down. When I turned the phone back on without charging it kept rebooting time after time. I tried plugging the charger in but that didn't help. I took out the battery and put it back in and that still didn't help. I finally caught it when it was rebooting and pressed volume down and got the phone in bootloader to at least stop the constant rebooting. I left the phone on the charger and after about 1/2 hour I pulled the battery and put it back in and the phone was fine.
I am not wanting this to happen again. Maybe I will go back to an older ROM.
if i have some luck i will receive my phone tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
i will let you know what has been repaired and if this solved the reboot problem.
today i received my phone back from the repair center.
The repair letter says that the display has being changed because it was not functioning anymore? (but when i sent the phone in the display was working like it should).
And the youtube problem is still there
Im having the same problem! i figure it was the battery overheating...or the rom or even probably a not compatible radio.....try to change all of these and is still restarting when ever it tries to connect to any data or internet usage. Ex. youtube, downloading of files from the internet, Remote Desktop even Microsoft My Phone still restarts.
even when i used to make/receive phone calls it would restart as soon as i picked it up to talk. but for this i had a solution witch as of now is working fine with out a problem.
if anybody else has this problem with the Receiving/making calls this should work.
1. Go to: Start/Settings/Connections
2. is the "TASK" tab choose "Manage Existing Connections"
3. In the "Modem Tab" has for options to choose from, normally is on "Auto", this was the problem. you would want to get it OFF AUTO.
4. Try all the other " voice Stream options Shown" and see witch one works for you without giving problems, and save. Im currently using "wap.voicestream.com." witch is the second option after Auto.
Well i hope this works for you guys if ur having similar problems, its actually work for me. GooD luck! hope this helps.

I will keep you informed
Ok so my battery died all the way to 0% before I could toss it back on the charger after a full days use. No big deal.
I plugged it in the charger, powered it back up and strangely my HD2 froze within 30 sec of booting into Sense. Strange.
So I rebooted and same problem. And the again and again about 10 times consistently.
30 sec is barely enough time to backup and settings or files to do a hard reset and restore an old back up file. So I unfortunately had to backup to an older backup from a month ago
Figure this would obviously solve the issue and worst case lose some recent texts and appointments. Well the freezing is somehow still there! I REALLY don't want to do a hard reset and start over from scratch.
Anyone know a possible fix? I searched before asking as usual but not much luck..
Hi
Ive suddenly started experiencing SENSE problems in the last two days also. I havent tweaked or installed anything for months. My battery didnt die though.
If i switch of SENSE it works fine, with Sense on it takes forever to do anything. Im planning to hard reboot it soon, but your experience seems doesnt fill me with confidence. are you on tmobile uk?
I've also experienced what OP has. Ran my battery completely empty. Let it charge for some time and switched it on later in the day. After some time (a few minutes, I think) the phone was extremely slow. Sense froze completely, but I could navigate the start menu etc, although very slowly.
A soft reset didn't change anything.
I disabled Sense (which was cumbersome, to say the least). Let the phone stay on with charger plugged in overnight. The next day it was good again.
Strange thing!!
Check for errors on your phone/sd card - sounds like you might have a corrupt file somewhere. I had one on my sd card and it gave me a massive battery drain. I deleted it and everything was back to normal.
Just link your phone to the pc, select the either drive through active sync, right mouse button and select "error checking" from "tools".

Hi
Ive had some luck on my freezing SENSE problem, not entirely sure if it may fix yours but this is how mine resolved. It was basically down to the issue where for some reason the phone switched its date back to 2009. i have a YAHOO email account configured, and given that the phone thought the date was 2009, it decided to download all emails since that date (headers at least). And I have a LOT! I just looked at the inbox, and it was huge. I only have the thing setup to check for new mails every 4 hours or so, so it doesnt resync so often. Anyway, i have forced it to check for new email now, and it has deleted all the hundreds (if not thousands) of old headers.
Now sense is working perfectly fine again. phew!
Perhaps the battery drain caused your system date to reset, and maybe you have emails setup to download from an external mail account? worth checking.
Had this issue again last night, although the battery was about 80% full.
Soft reset didn't change anything. I tried disabling Sense and soft reset. Didn't change anything either.
Did as last time; plugged in the charger and left the phone on over night (with Sense off). Today it was fine again. Enabled Sense and still smooth.
Date is correct, though, as opposed to ansaar99. Considering it was really slow even though Sense was disabled suggests this is a WM issue. Couldn't find any process that was hogging resources either; 90% CPU spent on Idle process; the rest used by task manager.
Haven't had the chance to check for corrupt files on the SD card (as suggested by Towserspvm2000).
Same thing happened last night again.
This time I tried both disabling Sense, and removing the SD card. Removing the SD card should solve the problem if it was because of a corrupt file. It didn't
I think I'm seeing a pattern though; this seems to happen roughly around midnight. Yesterday (or actually, today) I noticed it at 00:24. I didn't record the time on the other occurances, but it was around midnight.
So, could it be that WM by default does something 'scary' around midnight?
Hi everybody,
i've owned my Lumia 920 for about two months now, and i am (used to be) in love with it. Great hardware, great software, all those issues other people had, with the freezes, the random reboots... i had none. my phone was perfect.
Then i got Portico delivered OTA to my phone last week, and i thought 'great, this is gonna make the phone even better'. i was especially looking forward to the 'keep wifi on when screen is locked' option. I updated my phone (took maybe 20 minutes?), and my brilliant phone was gone. What i'm stuck with since is a collection of all the problems i had been reading about:
random reboots
random freezes needing a soft reset to be usable again
the phone is constantly warm, sometimes really hot, even when i'm not using it
battery life is about half of what it used to be pre-Portico
data connection is constantly dropping, be it 2g, 3g, or lte. if have to switch flight mode on and off again to get a data connection every hour or so
i was playing a game the other day, while charging the phone (original charger and everything) when the phone suddenly died because of an empty battery. so, the phone was using more current than could be supplied by the charger. that never happened, even with the exact same game, before portico
Again, i had none of these issues before the update. Right now i regret having updated to the "bugfixing release" of WP8, because all that did is to introduce all the bugs it was supposed to fix.
Does anybody else experience the same behavior, or maybe have some ideas on what i could do to try and fix them? I didn't do a hard reset yet, i am hoping to fix my issues without wiping the phone.
Thanks in advance for any help or tips
I havent been having the reset problems etc, but I have noticed that since updating, I have had probably half as good battery life. It is really annoying me cos I was so happy that it would last for ages even under heavy use, now it will only make it through the day comfortably with minor use. Im doing a complete discharge, and then recharge and see how that goes. So glad im not having the other problems that people are having though. Actually also disappointed that the camera is still not very sharp. Video is great, stills are average. Why have such lame performance on such a (supposedly) good camera
I haven't had experienced these issues yet. It might be something wrong when update comes OTA.
Only my problem is crackles in the case. I can live with them for now...
I've also been having problems with Portico, I haven't had issues with reboots, but my battery life is terrible. It used to go 15-16 hours on a charge, now I can barely get 7 hours.
Also, weird problem I've been having, when the battery gets too low that the phone automatically shuts itself off...when I plug it in, it takes about an hour to turn back on. It's really worrying me, because I never had this problem before. If anyone else has noticed this, please let me know.
Is there any battery diagnostic for the phone?
Thanks!
