Alright guys, i've got a weird one. I have tried the stock ROM (3.56), the round 4 rom (dcd 3.2.6), stock radio roms from 3.35.40 to 3.42.50 and this just keeps happening. After I upgraded from a 6.0 rom to a 6.1 rom my mogul has kept getting stuck in roaming and if I turn roaming off I have no signal. After a while I finally get signal but it takes anywhere from 15mins to 6 hours. I'm running PRL 60613.
You guys got any ideas?
i had this problem. for some reason i just reprovisioned my phone and the issue went away. your MDN and MSID numbers. i dont know how this will work for you. good luck.
when you flashed the radio if you let the customizations run from that it could stick you in roaming if its not your carrier that the radio was associated with... solution re flash the radio then before it updates flash the rom
Thanks for the replies guys, but I ended up figuring it out. Cardriver was right, I reset and reprovisioned my phone and the problem went away. Turned out when I upgraded to 6.1 it flashed my radio in the process and for some reason the provisions weren't working right afterward. Apparently it happens occasionally.

Did you upgrade by USB or storage card. I heard this happens with USB alot but not storage card method. I have never had it happen to me using storage card but a few times using USB. Just curious.

By USB, so the pattern fits.

After flashing to the new DCD 2.2.1 WM6.1 rom I can no longer activesync. Do I need to install a newer Activesync? If so, will I lose my data?
Otherwise I love this rom! Very snappy, and threaded MMS is tight.
thanks
Have you tried a soft reset? Or a hard reset? After flashing I couldn't ActiveSync, but a simple soft reset fixed it. No clue if that'll help you, or if you've already tried it, but if not I'd give it a shot.
No one else has run into this problem?
Every time I connect my USB cables my cpu just seems to freeze, then once unplugged it returns to normal.
Yea, I tried a soft reset already. Don't feel like I need to do a hard reset.

I always do a hard reset right after installing a new rom. I highly recommend you do the same. Hard reset after the OS boots for the first time, don't customize anything yet (obviously).
Ok, so I had the "Enchanced advanced network funtionality" option turned on in the Systems tab. It used to be in the connections tab so as I was looking to resolve this issue I had forgotten about unchecking it.
Thanks guys, my bad
SO i successfully loaded radio 3.27 and dcd 2.2.1_bell. But Everytime my phone boots up, i would get to the today screen and 5-10 seconds later it would just shut down and then boot back up. My unit would only stay on if I have it connected to my PC. Anyone ran into this problem? Using windows Vista and have hard reset my cell numerous times. But I load back the default ROM everything works fine.

Thanks. I was using an older bootloader version. Now i'm up and running!! my ev-do rev a and GPS works great!!!
**EDIT**
Ok, I was able to load 2.4. I had my usb cable connected from my laptop to my xv6800. For some reason this prevented it from rebooting. Once I was on the today screen I ran the 2.4 update and ran smoothly. I was able to put dcd's 2.3.2 and 3.27 radio and everything is fine. I'll atempt it again after clean up the hair I just pulled out.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm fairly new to this and maybe I should've waited a little bit longer before I tried dcd's 3.0 with the latest radio. Anyway here's my problem...
I can't get SPL 2.4 to load so the phone keeps rebooting. I've tried loading 2.4 through SD card and through RUU. Both times it says 100% successful but when I go into the bootloader screen on my phone it still says SPL-1.20.Olipro and phone keeps rebooting. I've tried putting vzw 2.09 rom on with an older radio and still can't get 2.4 to load or the phone to stop rebooting.
I'm on verizon.
thanks for any hlep you guys can give me.
Hello,
I downloaded the official rom from the official HTC website.
It is the WWE East Europe version - suited for my device because the SN is confirmed.
The download finished OK from the Europe 2 server.
I flashed by placing the extracted leoimg.nbh on the root of the SD Card.
I confirmed that the flash was successful - it shows the correct version number of Manilla, radio, etc. Additionally, the ROM is still only 448 MB.
However, the phone freezes all the time and/or restarts itself complely randomly - I have observed this 22 times in the past hour. Is anyone experiencing something similar?
I have redone the flash again, but the same issue occurs.
This is happening with no programs installed, no HSPL, etc. Everything is completely clean.
What can I do to stop this?
may i know why you flashed the latest stock rom using your sd card. would it not be easier to flash through your pc using a usb cable?
you might want to check the meaning of "bricking the phone"...........
then remove it from the title of the thread........
As Rurph mentioned, flash it via your pc, still following the instructions from theHTC site
I now tried flashing through PC, same freezing occurs.
To reiterate:
I have an original HTC HD2 bought from the official HTC shop in Czech republic.
I downloaded the latest official ROM for HTC HD2 from the official htc.com/cz website using my original serial number.
The download finished successfully every time (I tried it 5 times from all the different servers), and the SHA-1 hash of the files was identical every time.
I now flashed it using the normal PC method - everything appeared successful.
I also tried extracting the nbh file from the downloaded file - both by running the .exe file, and by extracting it using winrar - both methods gave me the same nbh file with the same SHA-1 hash. Then I moved the leoimg.nbh to the root of SD card and flashed using the SD-Card method. Everything appeared successful.
Both of the above methods give me a system that freezes completely at random. For example when starting the phone, it can just freeze (left it for 8 hours over night, it remained frozed), when moving from 1 tab to another (freezes in the middle of the animation), when opening the start menu, when going into settings, when making phone call, when opening SMS, and most importantly when NOT DOING ANYTHING AT ALL.
What can I do?
Try to flash an older Version.
I don't know if its possible, but maybe that solves your problem.
Did you have SPL 3.03? If no... Install HSPL and use a custom ROM like the one from NRGZ28 (EnergyROM)
If you an't flash the older version via RUU (Rom Update Utility) try to flash it from SD card. You can also perform a "task 29" with MTTY (before you flash)
But be careful, you can brick your phone...
I have always only used official ROMs from HTC, so I never needed HSPL so I never installed it. I also always prefer the official ROMs so I would rather not use a cooked one.
I think flashing an older version would solve the problem, however I would rather like to find out what the cause is...
So far, I managed to get my phone to a useable state by running Android from the SD card - it works flawlessly for all my purposes. The only problem was to start Android through Windows before windows manages to freeze...
Given that android does not freeze, I believe that the freezing problem must be a windows mobile issue.
Any suggestions for tracking down this freezing problem? Could it be a hardware issue?
hard reset. and if no better flash the rom again followed by hard reset.always hard reset straight away as soon as you see a glitch in a freshly flashed rom. don't ask me why, cos i don't know, but it does seem to help when a flash doesn't "take".
oh and you didn't leave the old application data folder on your sd card did you? or try to restore registry settings?

I always hard reset before and after a flash. No change - freezing still occurs.
Even when I did multiple hard resets, the freezing persisted.
The SD card is freshly formatted, checked for no filesystem errors.
I did not restore any settings or anything else - the problem occurs on a completely fresh clean flash.
Additionally, the problem occurs even with no SIM card or SD card inserted into the phone.
Overheating?
I concur with rr5678, seems more like overheating than ROM problems, esp. that I've had the same ROM for a week with no problems whatsoever
hence kind request to OP: check overheating threads and please change the thread subject to a more accurate one so it does not spread misinformation and panic
as for the overheating - 1st thing to do is installing BattClock and monitoring correlation between freezes and battery temperature

The phone is definitely not overheating. It is very cold to touch and it runs Android without a problem.
OK I did some more testing - going back to any previous ROM fixes the freezing. Then installing the newest ROM reintroduces the freezing.
Given that it is definitely not a hardware issue (works on previous ROM, works on Android, no overheating), it looks like a Windows mobile issue.
I am surprised that nobody else is experiencing this. How come I am the only one? What is so special about my phone?
And the new firmware can "brick" the phone - a less skilled user would not be able to do anything with a frozen phone...
Anyone know why I get no ringtones or alarm sounds when using 1.8?
Deliberate?
Edit: Weird, seems first time a check a ringtone or alarm sound list it's empy. I leave then go back, it's populated again. So self-fixing issue.
Edit 2: Yeah.. tabs got mixed up, completely wrong thread, sorry!
Anyone help?

Thanks for the advice - but given that the phone freezes even with no SIM card inserted, I do not think that it is the case...
I have however tested inserting a different SIM card anyway, and the freezing occured again...
I too faced constant freezing problems with the official ROM but then I used HSPL and flashed a different radio (2.12 in my case) and ever since never faced any freezing problems..worth a try I guess...
epic fail
not being picky, but "bricking" is, as far I know, by definition an irreversible problem? Hanging and freezing and re-booting are not bricking.
That said, sorry to hear about your troubles.
Sounds like going back to your old ROM is the only solution right now.

Well, to me it seems your phone just doesn't like custom ROMs.
Hello. As title shows i do have problems with wifi on my phone. It connects an disconnects every 10 seconds. After a few times it gives up. I have rebooted my phone and i have HD2O 2.0.0 v18 rom that i have had on it a while now. I also have Android 4 that i run from storage card and i have done so for a while as well. Wifi works fine when i am in android and the problem happened recently. Any tips? Should i flash back to an official rom? I do not want that because the official roms sucks on my phone.

Is the signal strength very weak, if so it could be hardware related & maybe wifi antenna connection issue which can be a problem for some;

I have a weird situation. My Mobile Data quit working after installing the KitKat update. My DNA is S-off and rooted and has been flashed to Straight Talk and uses Verizon towers in CDMA mode. I did this because Verizon has the best coverage in my area. I also work a lot in Mexico and I recently got this DNA so I could get a TelCel SIM card and use the phone in GSM mode when I'm at work. I was running 4.2.2 prior to the update. Since I was unable to take the OTA update, I flashed the stock firmware and ROM from Santod040 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2560010). After the updates my phone says Mobile Data is Disconnected. It is still showing CDMA mode and I am able to make and receive phone calls normally, just no internet. Anyone have any idea what I need to do to get Mobile Data working?
Do you have "turn off mobile data after long periods of inactivity" enabled? I tried that and lost data, disabled and data came back.

I did have that enabled prior to the update and never had any problems losing data. Since the update I have tried it on and off with no difference. I have also tried turning mobile data and airplane mode on and off with no change.
Another thing that is different since the update is that now when I turn my phone on, I get a message that pops up saying that there is no SIM card detected and that a SIM is required for the phone to operate.

Try putting a layer of clear tape on the backside of the sim card to see if it helps. If it does call HTC , they will send a new sim card tray. Known problem with this device. Also flash the latest radio.

I flashed the latest firmware that included the radio when I flashed the ROM. As far as the SIM tray goes, I don't use a SIM card, I am operating the phone in CDMA mode. I didn't start getting the SIM card message until I flashed the KitKat ROM.
bump, im having the same issue. viper 4.1.0 sense 6 kitkat 4.4.2. data disconnects randomly and have to reboot to get data back on. data only works for about 5mins after. no other issues. i have flashed the latest radio and twrp 6. ive tried flashing the latest hboot but i cant get it to work. wondering if thats the issue. had the same problem with viper 3.5.0 sense 5.5. any help appreciated.

As I said before, my phone has been flashed to Straight Talk's CDMA network so I don't require a SIM. I hadn't been able to find a fix to the Mobile Data problem so I tried calling the OTA number to reprogram the phone to hopefully fix any settings that might be messed up. I had been able to make calls without any issues, except strangely it kept telling me that the phone required a SIM card to operate only when I tried the OTA number. I decided to spend $7 on a Straight Talk SIM card thinking that it would see the SIM card and allow me to call the OTA number. I popped in the SIM card and Mobile Data immediately started working. I never called the OTA number or did anything to activate the SIM. Weird!!!
I have Verizon and I've always had my SIM card. I have no issues calling or getting calls/texts. Just mobile data. It Also seems really slow. I'm used to at minimum 10mb down 5mb up. I'm lucky if I get 10% of that now. That is if I can connect. I had to reload this page 3 times to get it to work.
Ok my phone is beyond f*cked up. I've tried going back to viper 1.3.5 I've flashed recovery and hboot and radio every which way but I can't get my data to work. When it does work I compared it to my wife's dl speed. Mine is 1.6 mb down. 1.2mb up. Wife's gs4 24mb down 22mb up. Tried multiple times same each time. Even on WiFi. Mines 3mb down 1.5mb up. Wife's 26mb down 16mb up. I'm back on viper 3.5.0 sense 5.5 because it seems to actually work occasionally. I've also went completely stock and still having same issue. Any help appreciated.
No one knows how to fix this? I've wiped everything and did a clean flash like I always do to sense 5 stock via ruu. Flashed twrp 6 beta. Then fastboot flashed hboot 4.09 and radio 4.09 and then sjdeloaded nusensesix. Still have horrible/nonexistent data and horrible WiFi speeds. Is there no way to fix this? Do I have to smash my phone and pay $100 to get it replaced? I'd rather not. I'm willing to donate to developers if you can he'll me fix this. I don't do dirty flashes ever. Always clean. Idk how to md5 check but dl and flashing multiple times I doubt that's the issue. I've tried fixing permissions. I've gone completely stock and still have same issue. Only sense 5 stock since I can't find sense 4stock. ive tried viper 1.3.5 3.5.0 4.1.0 and nusensesix. Same all around. Any help appreciated.
Could be your radio partitions are courpted. Read up in this link to reset the partitions. Just make sure you back up your important data as this requires a factory reset, with stock recovery, which wipes the device.

Bringing this back to the Q/A thread so as not to flood the other thread with questions. When you say you swapped SIM cards, did you swap just the card or both the card and tray. Try swapping both card and tray from your wife's phone to yours and see what happens. If it's the same results then most likely your phone is the culprit, if you get good data it's the SIM tray and you can order another one.
ok ive tried RUU again using the exe program and running as administrator. it keeps stopping at 6%(checking header..............) it wont go anymore. i already relocked the device, the thread is closed so i cant post in it...
