I have searched and can't find anything that works. Sometimes it will reboot normal, and sometimes it will reboot into safe mode.
I have pulled the battery and let it sit. I have reboot over and over I have shut it off and waited. I have gone into recovery and rebooted.
I am running superclean 2.8
I do not know if there is an actual problem with the phone, because for a while now it has acted as if I am randomly pushing the keys on the bottom of the screen. It pops up the menu, exits where I am, pulls up search or even pulls up the task screen as if I did a multi home press.
It does not do this all of the time, but sometimes it can be setting on the desk and it will start jumping menus.
Since it is intermitten I am not sure if flashing to stock and taking it to a tech would help.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
I just realized I posted to the wrong section, will a mod please move this for me? Or will someone let me know if it is something I can do myself and how?
There's two main causes I've seen for this...first and foremost, complete odin back to stock. Run stock for a few days and see what happens...
I did an odin factory restore and ran it for a few hour the other day and I don't remember if it was in safe mode or not, but it was doing the same thing with the menu button.

So here's a peculiar incident:
I have a CDMA TP with a stock ROM and a few basic apps I gathered from these forums and others. I've had it for less than a week.
Tonite, I went to check my text messages. Suddenly, the screen went black and the phone stopped responding. After pressing the power button and fiddling with the keys, I pulled out the stylus and did a soft reset. No response. Confused by this, I tried again, but still nothing. I removed the battery, and turned the phone back on. It froze at the "Touch Pro" screen with the rom/radio/etc info at the bottom. After repeating this a few times I decided to do a hard reset. So, I turn the device on and perform the hard reset. By this point the TP is only turning on SOME TIMES, and I have to take the battery out and put it back in often just to get it to start successfully. So, I finally get the device to boot up and it starts to configure WinMo. Suddenly, while configuring, it freezes. Now I try to turn it back on, and nothing happens.
Basically the device is stuck like this, shifting between not turning on at all and turning on but freezing at the "Touch Pro" screen.
So, my question is, what the heck is going on here? Has anyone else had this problem, or does this sound familiar to anyone? Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
p.s. Yes, the battery is fully charged.

Time to take it in and get a new one.....
Same problem here phone started b not coming out of lock mode. Backlight is on but no display on screen (if i tilt the screen left and right i can see light coming from behind) did about 6 hard resets and still same problem. also power button works whenever it wants to. this phone sucks @ss, i want my mogul back. on a second note my replacement will be here on wednesday.
Touch Pro stock rom purchased back in nov when it came out
yeah, i've had the same problem, i found if i hit my phone on the back or side and then batter pull and hit the soft reset while off, not the power button to turn it back on, it comes back on with color on the screen not just blank black screen with backlight, this works mostly every time, but when it doesn't, i just hold the power button down and do battery pull and hit the power button and it works, its like its got a combo of things you have to do before it works.. weird
Boot Up
I have also had similar problems. I for some reason sometimes have to remove my SD card and boot up without it for some reason. Not all the time, but every once in a blue moon. Not too sure how that affects anything, but you may try that too.
well i started a thread here ***help*** because i kinda have the same problem.
i downloaded some cabs, nothing fancy but i had some problems with a theme i downloaded. when i went to deleted i couldnt..... to make a story short, i took it to the sprint store where they tried to do a master reset/ hard reset and it wont take it. it wont do a thing... they say some important files are missing...
the phone works but not the way it should... the time on the home screen wont show up. and some other small things...
dont know how this happened but i would like to know... im worried about new programs to the phone now. ( getting a new one)
still want to see if i can fix this one.

Have you tried re flashing the ROM?
it wasnt HTC's fault for your phone's not booting...thats what happens when u try to mess with the hardware too much and you dont know what your doing
Would you want to sell???
Reboot Brick HTC process
****DOn't take battery out after hard boot***
1.just watch videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sk56olMkCtU and do what they do but dont take battery out. LEAVE phone STUCK on BOOT screen. Nothign else will move or work but you want phone just like that.
2. connect usb cable to active sync. (this may not link up but leave usb connected anyhow) Do not delete phone profile.
3.use rom like Download MightyROM6_Herman.exe avail at: http://www.lilrico.com/Mighty/mightyromblog/?p=454
4 although active sync is still attatched but may not be connecting. It will connect thru usb anyway when you run the rom software. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fV2I2WAFkg4&NR=1
This worked and kept phone from cutting on and off. and restored ROM. don't know about original htc boot. but your phone will work under this rom for now and you can go from there.
hey thanks plain ole dumb, it works now.
man I thought it was over.
thanks again
I'm not sure if anyone has experienced this on their 3d before and when I searched the topic there was no real definition or solution. Yesterday while playing around on the phone I had a random reboot (ZR3D Rom using Anthrax) and when the phone booted again I had the message "Safe Mode" in the lower left hand of the screen.
God knows I thought I really screwed something up, booted to recovery, wiped cache, dalvik, and fixed permission to no avail. So this morning I get to work and have some time to look up this safe mode and came across this article:
http://androinica.com/2010/08/how-to-activate-android’s-safe-mode-to-get-out-of-a-force-close-loop/
I had no idea that our phones could do this and its quit the neat feature, in a nut shell if you have a program that keeps force closing and you can not use the phone because of this, the phone can be booted into the safe mode which prevents the phone from loading 3rd party apps so you can remove the app that was giving you problems. All that is needed is a battery pull then hold the menu button while powering the phone on and vice versa to get rid of safe mode.
Like I said I'm not sure if anyone else had this problem or even knew about it but I thought I would share just in case someone needs help.
That's some good info. Thanks.
Holding the volume down once the splash screen appears will put you in safe mode as well, with any reboot no need for a battery pull. You will feel a hard vibrate, stronger than the normal quick one you get on a normal boot.
interesting info... didn't know that.
on another note.... i have never had a third party app repeatedly force close on me. in the ROM flashing world it has always been a system app.... this method would be useless in that scenario lol.
interesting, though, learn something new everyday.
It has actually been helpful for me, finding out what apps are comparable with joelz's cm9 kang rom.
At first I thought my problems stemmed from an update with WidgetLocker. However, I uninstalled that and the problems persist.
Description of problem:
So I boot the device to the lock screen.
I unlock the phone and all I see is my background with the taskbar at the top. No icons. I can't interact with anything. After a few seconds the screen goes dim and times out. Even if I touch the screen to keep this from happening.
I hit the power button to turn the screen back on. No response. I wait 30 seconds or so and it turns back on. I am greeted with "xxxx process/program has stopped responding do you want to force quit, wait, or send a report" (whatever program happens to be up, doesn't seem to matter, all programs cause this to happen). If I hit force quit the program still hangs. If I hit "wait" the program starts working. This isn't a very repeatable event in that sometimes when I turn the screen back on instead of the "force quit" screen I get the background with taskbar.
While all this is going on I am still receiving status updates, emails, texts, etc. Sometimes I can get to the point where icons appear on my homescreen but if I tap a program's icon the screen just freezes.
I have Go Launcher installed but this happens in Go Launcher or Sense.
Any ideas what is going on? So far I've:
restarted
removed battery
restarted without back on
restarted without sim card in
No luck.
I tried "restore" but after being shown green arrows and an icon of the device I immediately get an icon of the device and a red exclamation in a triangle.
Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm trying to avoid a hard reset.
I would run the RUU. I know you don't want to wipe, but I would back up your data as best you can and wipe it.
any recommendations for backing up? I can't really get to any apps right now.
What does RUU mean?
ROM update utility. Stock rom releases from HTC.

Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
well
I ran the phone down to 0% battery. Restarted it and things seemed ok. But just now it is starting to hang again so going to back it up and run that RUU.
I tried the RUU but was told it could not communicate with my phone even though I had it plugged in via usb.
Instead of installing the RUU I installed one of the leaked ICS updates (official one for the rezound). Now it functions somewhat better. There is still often a long wait between pressing home while in an application and going to the home screen. Also while the screen is off, pressing the power button to turn the screen on I have to wait a good minute for the screen to come back on. Any idea what in the world is going on?
Sounds weird. Anyway, here are a couple thoughts:
When you installed the ICS leak, did you do a complete wipe of everything? If not, do it and reinstall whatever ROM you like.
Otherwise, in recovery, wipe cache and dalvik again. While you're in Recovery, it wouldn't hurt to run Fix Permissions.
HTH - Good luck!
I did a factory reset to the ics rom.
How do I clear cache and what is dalvik.
I'm going to download one of the official rezound 2.3 update toms and flash it. If that doesn't work ill take it to a Verizon store and see what they can do. It is under warranty.
I've noticed that apps function fine the problem is getting to and from the home screens. It's then that the phone freezes up for a minute or so.
Ok was going to reset phone to 2.3 but got the main version error so going to try this trick to get the main version down to where I can "upgrade" to 2.3:

Everything get worked out?
I can't get temp root to work so I can install superuser. Working on that now.
seems ICS leak has no temp root ability. I've reached the end of my road as I don't know where to go from here.
Hello all.
I need help and I hope I can receive it asap.
My phone has been turning off on its own quite a bit, but every time I catch it, I would just turn it back on and everything will be back on its way. I can't think of why it would turn off on its own though.
Just now, I was just on gtalk and pressed the power button to turn off the screen. When I tried to press it again to wake it back up, it's off. I turned it back on, it loaded but everything was being force closed. Gmail, Facebook, Calendar etc. So I freaked out and turned it off to restart. Afterwards, when I tried loading it, it got stuck at the loading screen (where there's the yellow triangle). I tried restarting multiple times but it's still stuck there.
I have rooted it and I never had any problems up until now. I have Checkrom V4 (I don't know which kernel, whichever it installs itself). This isn't the first day that I installed this rom either, I've had it for a while now but the problem just got worse today.
I can get into CWM BUT I do not want to restore until I absolutely need to. (this is because I haven't done a backup recently on CWM)
I really hope someone can help as I live off of my phone!
Please and thank you!!

Thanks Chris.
I guess this can be closed as my phone started working all of a sudden.
But I still cannot explain why it would turn off on its own...
go in recovery do a factory wipe and then go stock...

I wouldn't take it for granted that your phone has just mysteriously "rectified" itself. There is something up. I still suggest following the instructions on the thread I posted above if it does it again.

dear members
