I never got this one till I installed Prophet touch VIII.
I'm guessing it's one of the today plugins/startup folder files that tries to read or write in some corrupted file.
Last time I got it I only got 2 today plugins: HTC home and battery status.
I found a way to reboot without hard reset so I'm going to explore the culprit
I've read in another forum spb pocket plus activates safe mode which loads windows without today plugins or services. It boots on boot screen freeze...
Next step, unplug the plugins 1 by one until it boots...
So for now I'll just wait for the next boot screen freeze
I'll keep you posted
Here you have the right application for your needs. SAFEMODE ver.2.1
THis will let you solve freezing problems. I advance you that most problems come from HTC HOME and visual changes made with 3rd party programs...and a classic: installing default keyboards with 3rd party software like SKTools

I hadn't made any install before the boot freeze. I had several programs installed but I soft reseted after every install to try to catch the incompatibility... still... freeze...

if the frozen screen has got todo with an application you installed in your sd card you can try to reboot without that sd
if it is not helping you will have to hard reset tour device.Next time install safemode

tried the no sd solution.. to no avail... I'm tracking the problem down with a safe mode. so far I got no freeze so no conclusions...
I used to have this boot freeze issue with my PDAViet 4.0.0.0.6. The problem comes almost like every 2 weeks, sometimes if I'm lucky.. 3 weeks. In my ROM, it always stuck and I had suspected it to be the HTC X-Button. So, I just disabled it and now I'm using PBar 1.4. I think the problem disappeared for good now after I use PBar.
You are welcome to try

I'm using prophet touch VIII so I never got x-button...
I'm on the third clean week since I disconnected battery status... so for now I'm blamming that fellow
Hi Folks,
this is the first time I can read from someone else having the same issue as i do...!!!
I tried several rom's and latetly a thought its my neo! I have one some application installed but when i reflect the thread - yes! it must be one of the today plugins!
I have one 3 activated (!!!) plugins
a) HTC
b) Birthdayz
c) Calender
I had suxxess in geting my device up again when I removed the battery until the neo lost time&date. I assume it has to be the Birtdayz and/or Calender plugin. I would understand Birtdayz - but Calender would be odd!
I'll deinstall birthdayz and have a look at it!

Have you guys seen this thread?

Just wondering if anyone has anything (good/bad) to report about the OTA update. Figure this would be a good place to post those issues for the people who are still hesitant about updating. I have the 2.1 v3 non-root and have yet to update. Thanks.
Having issues with 2.1 I can't find ANY HTC widgets. Tried to reload the digital clock with the weather app at the bottom and realized the phone doesn't have any HTC widgets, only shows the android native widgets. Anybody else having this problem, got any advice how to solve this?
I just manually updated to 2.1 (Official) and now my weather app doesn't work. Widgets are ok, just opening the app causes a force close. Any way to fix this? Might call customer support tomorrow and tell them the OTA got to me and it won't work now.
From what I've seen around a reboot might fix that if you haven't tried that already

Haha thanks, but I've tried it several times. Also, the recovery doesn't work with the official update.zip. I'm assuming that it's because the versions are the same, but if it says RECOVERY then I'm wondering why it won't RECOVER like I'm trying to do now. Any other ways to reinstall the OTA?
I manually updated my wife's around 10 am today and about 3 hours ago, she started havin no sound issues. couldnt hear through the earpiece, phone vibrates instead of rings, speaker will not play volume. I have tried everything. Making sure all settings are in place like volume TTY. Reboot fixes it for about five minutes then right back to the same thing. Hard resetting now. If it still does it I'll probably take it in and demand a new one i guess...lol
EDIT: Should I have to reprogram on a hard reset after this update? Hmm somethings not right about that...
Ive had no problems with the OTA. I went from stock 1.5 to OTA 2.1
It seems that people with leaked 2.1 v3 won't get the ota. My friend has an Eris with 1.5 and just got
it but I didn't.

I don't think anyone who is running any leaked version is getting an update right now. There is an issue with the hboot versions it seems.
Don't worry, two things have been confirmed.
First the OTA will not work with the leaked ROMs installed.
Second, the OTA is exactly the same as the 2.1 leak v3.
This was confirmed on Android forum by someone that took the time to compare every single file and CRC the binaries. The only difference was that the leaked ROMs use a different bootloader to install as they did and the actual OS and apps are exactly the same so if you got leak v3 you got the OTA.
The OTA won't install because you are already running it.
if you have rooted 2.1 (test keys) and you downgrade to back to 1.5 any one if this will allow you to get the OTA update? i installed the rooted 2.1 (test keys) but never installed a custom ROM (the second half of the directions on XDA forum) and I still haven't received the update. but I was thinking of downgrading to 1.5 to see if i can get the update.
anyone having problems with live wallpapers on 2.1? or was this not included with the 2.1 for eris?

Unfortunately it wasn't included.
just found out about 2.1 this morning...
I'm a verizon rep for an authorized premium retailer, and one of my customers came up to me today with her eris complaining about all her contacts being gone and her album not being there... her exact words: "What happened??? I clicked the update thingy and now half my ****'s gone!" Personally I laughed slightly, then checked the software version, found it updated to 2.1 and figured the deal. Her sound is working fine, she now has a couple more widgets she wont know how to operate, and albums is now "photos", and contacts is now "People". also required a resync to get her contacts back, but now she's golden.

Quick question about TaskBar (process killer) widget. Anybody know how to program it to ignore certain processes? Like sense... I tried using it but it killed sense every time. Along with mail and the weather process, which I don't care so much about, waiting for sense to reboot every time is a serious pita though...
I previously had 1.5 stock eris. I downloaded the official OTA zip and manually installed it. I had a few issues at first.
1. I had Spare Parts installed and had set my End key to first goto home screen and then lock. 2.1 did not like that setting and so my end key wouldn't do anything except turn it on from sleep and end a call until I changed the setting to just lock the phone.
2. Couple apps wanted to be updated to a new version after installing 2.1 before they would work.
3. Here is my unresolved issue - All my apps that I had installed before 2.1 no longer have write access to my SD card.
For example Astro File Manager showed my permissions on /sdcard as dr-. Reloading the card, rebooting, etc did not fix the issue. Uninstalling and reinstalling seems to have fixed the issue.
Why did this happen in the first place and is there an easier fix than uninstalling/reinstalling all my apps?
I've had the same disappearing HTC widget issue as was mentioned earlier, but a reboot (with a battery pull) didnt fix the problem. Is a hard reset my only option?
my girlfriend installed the OTA and now only the stock ringtones work when receiving a call- she set up custom ringtones for a few contacts, but if they call, the default ringtone rings.
I was running the leaked 2.1 eris rom on a MyTouch 3g and had the same issue, so i'm guessing it's not an easy fix. anyone else seeing this?
2.1 OTA back to 1.5
Hi everyone, I had many problems with 2.1 I manually installed 2.1 OTA from 1.5. everything went smooth, once running first thing i notice I click on the HTC clock weather, and it force closes, ok great, found a trick to delete the cache for weather provider, boom works, then i find out I do infact have the 50% time without signal issue, well I figured it wasn't too big of a deal, but after basically cutting my time in half going from 2 days no charge, to barely making one day, and I've heard that it would just take time as it did when first getting the phone.. which makes sense as it was the case with 1.5, week later not much improvement, so..
I would just like to comment on my experience. It went so smooth, it was in-fact easier to set back to 1.5 than it was to initially, manual install the OTA 2.1... I downloaded the MR2 file, unzipped the file, went through the computer on screen step-by-step process, Took less than 10 minutes, and of coarse as soon as turning the phone back on with 1.5 I see the OTA msg. I'm, just praying it doesn't get too annoying..
I bought a new T-mobile hd2 last week and tried to load a chinese font package (Yahei) to display chinese characters. However, after installing it and restart the phone my htc sense cannot be loaded at all. I tried to hard rest 1-2 times but does not work out. BTW, all the htc software functions like calendar, people, ring setting cannot be load either.
Am I doing anything wrong with the phone, or I need to unlock/tweak the hd2 before installing any softwares.
-Thanks

When I had this problem, a hard reset also failed to solve it, I had to reset 4 or five times before sense was up and running again. I dont know why........
Hi all,
A while ago I my launcher began restarting itself very frequently. I thought it was the app (ADWLauncher EX) so I switched to GO Launcher and it still happened. So I guessed something was corrupted in the OS and I upgraded from 2.2 to 2.3.3. Still restarting frequently. Going back to the newest version of ADW Launcher didn't help either. Today I switched to SPB Shell 3D and guess what? It happens more than ever!
There is no force close message, but when I press the home button I have to wait for the launcher to start up again (several times per hour).
Something in my phone doesn't like launchers. Everything was fine until a couple of months ago when this problem suddenly appeared.
Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions?
Specs:
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S Captivate (I896)

Thanks in advance,

This is due to alot of ram being used and the OS is closing it out. A custom rom sets the launcher at a harder to level.
It is because your phone has less ram available on that time. If you are loading a heavy Ram software, it will automatically kill those apps so it will have more ram to load those heavy stuff. It is usual.

Thanks for the replies. Everything was fine until a couple of months ago so I must have installed a memory-hog app at some point.
How can I tell which app is using all the RAM?
Thanks in advance,

Hello!
Had CM 10.2 latest stable version up and running, in the process of downloading all my apps and restoring some stuff from titan back up. A few things like message/phone contacts said it would require a reboot to show the changes, so I rebooted and got the error
"Unfortunately The Process Com.android.phone Has Stopped"
at the lock screen, wifi on but no phone signal. If I got the chance to hit "ok", it would close and reboot, in a non-stop loop. So common sense told me to do a wipe from recovery and reboot, so I'm back to square one with all my apps and backups.
Some google-fu told me that using titan back up on some "system" backups will cause this loop, and that was the only back up that suggested a reboot, so I have to assume it was that. I never saw this mentioned anywhere during the process, just wondering if there is a way around it? Right now I have no numbers saved or my old conversations, mostly I just want my contacts as anyone can understand. Open to any suggestions!
Google backs up everything if you let it, that's the best and fastest way.
Don't restore system apps or data.
It's better to not restore anything at all, unless you're really lazy and must.
