Anyone having an issue with the Restart function? - HTC EVO 3D

For some reason, mine doesn't restart anymore when I tell it to, it just shuts off entirely. Anyone else having the same issue?

Mine was doing the same, took it back.

Mine just shuts the phone down, too.

Mine was doing the same when I first got it but somehow it works fine now....

I've had issues about 50% of the time trying to power off or reboot. Always end up pulling the battery and then its fine, still annoying as balls though.

Same here. Reboot powers the phone off

that happened to me, but I've done all the ota stuff. I've noticed that if you have done headphones plugged in, you can't reboot the phone.
but the reboot problem is very inconsistent

I've seen it happen both before and after the ota, also while both on and off the charger. It's just so hit or miss.

Same here with just shutting down. But somehow it is fine now.

Mine just started doing this after I did a factory reset (which did fix my problem of voice mails not showing in my vm box)

I had the same exact issue. It started to bother me quite a bit. What I did to rectify the problem was hold the power button down and tell it to go into airplane mode. I let it stay in airplane mode for a minute then turned airplane mode off.
Ever since doing this task it has rebooted each and everytime like it is suppose too. If this seems to work for you folks as well great. Perhaps it will help figure out what the issue may be.

I wish I had tried that before I did the second factory data reset. However, this second time around seemed to fix this problem and now I can restart again.

Mine just shuts down too. Weird

Yeah I think this is a sense 3.0 bug not handset related.

Random Reboots?

Have a new rooted Atrix and just experienced a random reboot while making a call. Anyone else had this happen yet?
nope have had mine since yesterday at 2:00 pm no issue with reboots
none here!
I was driving yesterday and put the phone down, screen on in the browser or something. Looked down a few minutes later and it was at the AT&T splash screen like it was rebooted. I am rooted but nothing really special was installed at the time.
Ya, I've been getting these as well. It happens most often when I'm charging my phone. I've heard people saying other cords don't work as well but I was using the charger that came with the phone, just plugged into my computer.
Me too
twice in the last three days. Also, my N1 charger freaks this phone out.
I have a stock phone and this happens to me frequently, while my wife has also a stock phone and it hasn't happened to her once. I'm going to exchange the unit tomorrow.
Happened to me once. If it happens again I think im gonna exchange mine.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
It's happened to me a few more times, both when I'm charging and when I'm not, but it definitely happens more often when charging.
2 reboots due to the wifi preference crashing and one random music player app crash
It's very strange. This was happening when I first got the phone. Seems to happen more when it was below 50% battery and being charged via my laptops USB. I wonder if this is the rumored power issues the phone was having that was mentioned on Engadget before its release.
After a factory reset though, I have not had the problem again.

I had a problem where the phone was doing random reboots a few times a day which was very annoying.
I swapped the phone today at the AT&T store as they got a new batch and so far so good.
Rooted with all my apps installed - so far - no reboots.
Keeping my fingers crossed.
I got another reboot today while using Google Maps. So thats 1 random reboot a day for two days.
No problems here.

Funny, I had a random reboot today. Is this what we get as early adoptors of a dual core phone ?
UPDATE my phone shut off by itself over night.gonna get a new or switch to verizon. This is ridiculous

It just happened on my device. I was scared first, now I know I am not alone.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Mine rebooted again twice today while connected to the car dock using google nav. Gonna head back to the ATT store and get a new one tommorow morning.
Update: left my phone off the charger last night for the first time at around 80% and woke up to a dead phone. This and the reboots mean im going to exchange it as soon as the att store opens. Hopefully i'll get a normal one this time.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Returned my phone that was rebooting nonstop. The new one is working much better.
My phone has a 90% chance of reboot whenever I am connected via bluetooth and streaming audio. It is driving me crazy.

My EVO has to go back

Just wanted to make everyone aware of the sleep issue with the EVO 3d , even after the ota the phone fails to sleep at all, spent an hour on the phone with HTC and they said it was a software issue and needs to be replaced, if ur your phone is saying the same up and awake time in the battery menu take it back, apparently they said the phone needs 2 mins to go into sleep, and if thise numbers havent changed after that you have faulty software

Looks good.
Glad they are recognizing it as a h/w issue and letting you get another one. Hopefully your next one is like mine.
That's interesting. I have this problem on my EVO 3D, but I am pretty sure I didn't before. I started noticing it yesterday morning after I woke up.
I think I'll try a hard reset, but if that doesn't fix it, then I'll go ask for an replacement.
Well?

This is happening to me too after I took the OTA, my phone died in about 6-7 hours yesterday, steady decline on the battery graph. I thought it seemed fine before the OTA tho. I should take it back?
I believe mine was fine too until the ota, i cant 100% confirm it though, to check this out go into menu>settings>about phone>battery make sure the up time and awake time arent the same ive tried hard reseting with no success and also have tried killing all tasks, call htc about this issue, or just try to take it back

Nevermind, I just tested it and it seems to be sleeping fine now. It was just not sleeping while on the charger, but sleeps fine off. I think my issues yesterday might be battery calibration issues, will test out today to see if that is the case.

Thats too bad about your cell.. bad hardware or bad run etc.. at least its not a wide spread or close problem. The 10 I have seen since release sleep well with great battery life.. still jelous..just waiting for root before i get mine
Even with this phone not sleeping i still get like 8 hours out of it with moderate use, so i can only imagine how good its gonna be when i get one that actually sleeps

Its only if the numbers are the same, i called in this morning and they tried to troubleshoot it but nothing worked, just told me to return it just to be safe id keep an eye on it to make sure it is sleeping

I think it's just a software bug. Should be fixed in an OTA by HTC. I have it too but my battery isn't affected so I'm not worried about it and neither should anybody else. Unless your battery is being affected.
Not to be a smart Ass, but how would I know if battery is effected?

Basically if your battery doesn't last very long. Its just like keeping your screen on all the time.
Yeah, I feel like this should be software related since I'm pretty sure it wasn't happening on my phone before.

This ever happen to you guys.

I just woke up to find my phone fully charged, but the capacitive button lights were on and screen works not turn on... Had to do a battery pull. Good thing I want relying on my phones alarm today.

Yep. I had mine replaced because of random reboots/lockups such as that.
I've had mine since it was released and this is the first time anything like this ever happened.

My first one did it alot. Started to get real flaky before I returned it. 2nd one did it the other day a couple times but it was plugged in charging on 4g wifi tether and oc'd to 1.5 and on a new rom and kernel I hadn't used b4. You on stock?
I had my phone seemingly hang once. Touchscreen would not respond after disconnecting from a call. The hardware buttons worked but the screen was dead. I was driving, so I wasn't about to monkey with it and I tossed it in the passenger seat. When I got to my destination my phone was working normally again...no reset, nothing. No idea what happened, but it was the first time something like this happened since I bought it and it hasn't happened since then. So I just chalked it up to sun-spots.
Happened to me twice. Don't know why.

Just happend to me. Phone was just laying next to me, I look over at it and the capacative lights were lit up but nothing else worked. Had to pull the battery twice to get it to come on

Demigod (yellow screen) ?

Anyone else getting the demigod hardware reset screen?
Got it once shrugged it off.. Second times got me a bit worried...

Could you elaborate more about what this screen is?
If you had it you would know what I'm talking about for sure.
If you were just asking in general. It all appears to be a screen that gives you an option to go into download mode after your phones hardware resets. Phone boots into it.
I got a black Demigod screen on my old phone Friday. It was the proverbial straw on a phone that was rebooting itself daily - I exchanged it on the weekend.
The black screen was, I believe, for a kernel panic. I got the same 3 options: Download mode, reboot to normal and something else...
Does your phone get poor battery life. Does it make noise when you squeeze it? I wonder if all these issues are related. You should have your phone replaced. My phone does not give me any of the problems people are talking about
the best phone ever
Yep, I got the yellow screen this morning. I was like WTF is this? Rebooted and all is fine now. We'll see how long it lasts. Any idea what causes this?

Was told in irc that its a mode the phone goes into that allows jtag over usb. If it does it again im just taking this one back too. Everything seems normal after a reboot for me too, something is changing when it happens though because my hosts file reset both times.
Both times it happened i was on sk8s kernel. But i havent seen anyone else on it say anything about it and i was on sk8s on my old phone too and it didnt do it.

All I've done is root, unlock and removed bloat. No other mods on my end so it can't be due to sk8s kernel.

This message only happened to me when I plug into my car charger. Before I rooted it used to say slow charge. Now I get this message. I think the base ROM took something out...
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda premium
That's when I got it too. I'm on stock so I'm not thinking it's the base ROM. Maybe it's something to do with the charger each of us used for the first time...

funny you guys say that.. first phone didnt get the screen was never pluged into car charger. second phone was pluged into car charger.
but.. the guys in irc keep saying its software related.. so ill take there word for it for now. they no more then i do.

They definitely know more. No doubt about it. At least we know one thing. I got it on stock while others got it on a ROM. So I'd assume that it's a hardware issue or an issue that's buried in the software. See, I just covered all the bases. Lol

one of the devs had it happen to his rooted freegeed stock too. he was the main one telling me it is software.
I just plugged my phone in and took the dog out. Came back and my phone was in fastboot mode for some reason. LOL

I'm on the Sprint LGOG and I just had it happen too.
Stock ROM, rooted, and unlocked. Never happened until today, which was the first time I did a restore with TWRP - I debloated too much.
Rebooted and seems fine now.

Is all fine and dandy until you miss an alarm.
I just got the Demigod screen too.
All I've done to my phone is root it and unlock it with FreeGee.
EDIT: I had noticed that the phone was acting somewhat strangely the past couple days (slow response, screen not turning on when I press the power button, multitasking screen not appearing/not responsive). Now it seems alright even though I had rebooted the phone prior to the Demigod screen to try and resolve these issues.

Phone keeps randomly shutting down.

It started happening a couple days ago, but I haven't installed anything new, but maybe a few apps may have autoupdated. Anyways last time it happened was about a minute ago so I figured I should probably try and figure out what's going on. I sat down and launched a game. As it was loading my phone shut off. I turned it back on and put a song on and loaded same game again. I started to play and then it shut off again. Earlier today I was listening to music and was started a different game and it shut off. I turned it back on and relaunched the same game while listening to music and it was fine for hours. Any idea what it could be? My battery is also well over 60% so it's not anything to do with low battery.
Thanks.
i recently have this problem, some say that was stock battery problem or the phone is bad reading the battery status and shutdow, i am from Nicaragua and here is hard to find a stock OEM battery so, i try do a fix permission in recovery and the problem was solved , but most users solved the problem by changing its battery
good luck
This problem has come back again and has been increasingly getting annoying. It will now shut off multiple times a day randomly. For example I'll check the time on my phone and it will shut off. I turn it back on and as soon as I unlock the screen it shuts off. After it does this a few times it will work. I would then open facebook or something and be scrolling down and it will just shut off again. I'm running default ics rooted and unlocked. Never had issues before and nothing has really been added. I've disabled a couple things such as advanced task killer and single cpu thing with the hopes that it would help, but it hasn't.
Any idea?
Thanks.
Bump. Anyone?
Welcome to the amaze. Mine started doing it again. Changing to non OEM battery helped for a while but it's back. I'll never touch a ****ing HTC phone again until the day I die and I've only ever used HTC.

Yeah I'm thinking the same. It is so annoying trying to send texts when it would shut down for no damn reason. I am hoping it's an app that is causing the phone to crash, but I haven't installed any recently. I got a new battery a couple months back but I wasn't having the problem then. This battery should be a few months old so I don't expect it to be the problem.
Love HTC. (even though I'm considering am s4 simply for a change of flavor) but HTC cannot make a good battery. They underestimate by a lot.
