I've had this issue with BePe 0.97, under same circunstances: charging at night.
But I had an additional issue, as the phone was endlessly restarting. It showed the initial screen and vibrated, but before it showed the ROM and Radio version it restarted again. Eventually I was able to put the PIN and boot WMobile, and I quickly turned the flight mode on (as I wanted it to be stable at night, as I needed the alarm this morning).
I've no idea about what happened, as I had made no changes, but lastly the phone only charges 2 bars during all night long, and I can't connect it to the PC via ActiveSync. (I don't know if it can be related to this problem...)
Hi all,
I am working on the official HTC rom (I believe it's 1.37) and have not installed any unknown software...
1.35 rom on my wife's TD, same problem as yours
1.37 rom on mine, same problem, abeit less frequent
now both on 1.93 rom, no problems.
maybe give it a try, been pretty smooth on both TDs so far without any tweaks done
1.93 restarts
My HTC Diamond restarts during recharge at night.. i have 1.93. this sucks.. Anyone else have this issue?
try doing a hard reset.
i had some issues like opera not working n some others that i can't recall offhand b4 when first upgraded to 1.93
i did a hard reset and have not had any issues since
funny thing is, everyday at midnight, if i were wake the phone, the minutes flap on the clock will start to flip non-stop till the exact minute eg. 12.39am; the minutes flap will continuously flip from 12.00 to 12.39
My diamond also does random restarts. Not only while charging at night, but during the day, while working with it, too.
I tried a lot of roms. On some the restarts where less frequent, but still there. Any idea what I can do about it?

Hi,
My Diamond also random restarts. I try 3 type ROM (original CZECH, original ENGLISH, Dutty), but Diamond random restarts. Any idea???
(sorry for my english )
Hard-SPL or warranty return
Dare I suggest it, but if you have this issue AFTER a rom change, and/or after a a HARD reset then the only thing left is your SPL (Hard or otherwise)...have you "played" around here yet?
If you have and this has made no change I would be beating a path to your handset provider with you warranty card for service repair or replacement!!!

My HTC Touch Diamond has 1.93 installed and it's still happening.
Have 3 HTC Diamonds, 2 working fine and 1 got this problem since the day I bought it.
Anyone has link to download the 1.35 ROM? Thanks.
I dont think that it has something to do with Hard-SPL. I had the problem with the original rom to (never flashed).
I now used Aztor Rom, didnt install any apps, but the restarts still happen. I have the feeling that they only happen if applications were running.
Maybe the storrage gets to full?
Tonight I am going to install Panosha shine on v2.0 with a bigger pagepool- maybe that helps?!?

I got the same issue
I bought HTC diamond 20 days back. It is restarting automatically . sometimes while incoming call recieved or sometimes while calling others from contacts. sometimes in the night by itself getting restarted. more over sometime it is automatically switched off.
I am using ROM 1.93.720.2.
Can anyone help me out here
Turns off while charging and changes the clock
Hi guys, I noticed none of you had the problem like i did:
If I leave my Diamond to be charged during the night, sometimes it works just fine and nothing happens. But like this morning it really f*cked me up: It reboots and when i woke up (to the sound of the alarm clock) it was in the "enter pin" screen. TouchFlo3d worked just fine and I inserted the pin code and it's been working just fine since then. The only problem (which I discovered after my morning shower) came up when my boss called me and told me I was already 10 minutes late (work starts at 3pm). My Diamond showed me that it was still 2.35pm and I had been woken up by the alarm at 2.20 as I had set it.
So the problem: The device turns off during charging and changes the time of the clock (or the clock jams and doesn't update for a while...)
I have the 1.93.414.1 WWe ROM from htc.com and eveyrthing else works just fine. This problem was first discovered when I bought this device with the original 1.34 ROM I believe.. Updated to 1.93 and still it continues. Any suggestions ?
How did you enter the pin to boot to windows mobile? I have the same problem it keeps rebooting itself and I do not know what to do, I did hard reset but it did not help.
Thanks.
I start to investigate the wired issue...
I noticed if I put the Diamond to sleep (charge) after Midnight nothing happened and no restart during night , if I put Diamond before Midnight , then it may get Restart during the night..
The other issue I noticed the wired Clock between 00:00 and 00:39 as
some reported here, if you open the Diamond , lets say at 00:30 , u will see clock start from 00:00 to 00:01 , 00:02 etc till it arrive to 00:30 ,
I m using Second Today screen with Digital clock installed and found that there is no problem in clock , i'll explain:
During the clock moving from 00:00 to 00:30 (in the TF3D) I pressed on the Second Today and saw clock 00:30, moved back to TF3D and saw clock continue moving to the "target" 00:30..
I made 1 +1 (restart problem and clock problem) and found that the problem comes from TF3D...
To prove it I made this test - I put Diamond to sleep before Midnight ,
but after Shut down the TF3D from setting >> Today
and open the TF3D back during the morning...
Since I made it, No restart during night anymore...
So all you have to do is to close the TF3D to prevent from restert during night, and open it back in the morning..
Try it too so we can be sure it's TF3D problem..
Seems like TF3D needs to sleep too during the night
Bug in TF3d
On Duttys penultimate rom I had the clock issue but also when I went to contacts. TF3d wouldn't display them and reverted to the home screen again.

and you said "My diamond also does random restarts. Not only while charging at night, but during the day, while working with it, too."
Seems like you have other problem. not the night restarting
Okay, I've searched and can't find this problem but hopefully somebody may have some ideas.
Quite frequently, I lose the top line of my display (the one with the start button and the system status icons). Everything else works but that line just disappears.
If I then lock the device it comes back. When I unlock it, it sometimes stays but sometimes disappears again once it's unlocked and I then have to turn my phone off and back on again.
I have a standard Orange UK phone, standard ROM and I've used some of the performance tweaks listed here. I've also disabled Touchflo and am using spb diary as my home page.
Anybody any ideas because this is driving me mad?
I had the same, but only when TF3D was deactivated. Since I use it again, it doesn't happen anymore...
It happens on my Orange diamond as well - stock 1.37 rom with TF3D enabled.
It seems to happen once every 4-5 days, and doesn't really have a pattern. Sometimes it's switching between Today and Second Today, sometimes it's rotating, sometimes it's unlocking etc..
flash a new ROM
Hello there.
Well i just recommend you to flash a new cooked ROM. I havent seen this behavior with a cooked ROM.
Best regards.
Well, at least it isn't just me but does anybody have any idea what causes the problem and how it can be solved.
Could it be something to do with glyph memory?
I used to see this sometimes on the orange rom. Since flashing a cooked rom makes the device twice as fast - and removes that problem - I would just flash it.

I know it's the wrong forum to say this but I'm just a bit scared to flash it because I've never done it before.
I'm worried about either a) bricking it or b) losing some setting that Orange put in to connect to their network (voice, data, voice mail etc).
Hi
I've had a similar Problem!
It seems to happen when I take the phone out of sleep cos I've got a text and its locked (I've set it for 30min).
I press the power button but the screen only half lights and the top line doesn't display. It sometimes says 'password' in the top left but does nothing if I press it.
I can slide along the bottom line but it doesn't work properly.
Interestingly I also have a Orange Diamond 1.37 ROM (which I've unlocked).
I'm gonna flash with HTC's ROM from there site and I'll let everyone know if the problem persists.
Wish me luck

And what happened?
Hi
Sorry for the delay. I tried the HTC site ROM but it just gave me a message saying 'Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device'.
So it looks like i'm stuck cos its still doing it about once a day just have to switch of and on again.

Okay. I still have the problem and am very, very tempted to try flashing a new ROM (and Radio). But I just can't quite work up the courage to do it since I've never done it before and it's the fear of the unknown.

This happens to me too. I have a T-Mobile Compact IV.
I've found that using FreeUP RAM (part of SKTools) not only releases memory, but also fixes this problem (until the next time it happens, which admittedly is not often).
Just wanted to say that I've upgraded my Orange ROM to the new 1.93 and I haven't had this problem....yet.
2 days without problems so I thought it may be safe to post.
IVe also had this on 1.37.x.x on my mda cmpct IV. Like everyone on here Im considering flashing but Im waiting for t-mobile to release an update (they keep telling me the will, presummably the 1.93.x.x) so that if I then brick the puppy - I can blame it on there rom upgrade.
I want this phone to be better, I know it can be with a ROM change...but I dont want to brick it and for once in my life will have some patience to wait.
Does anyone experience "Grey Screen of Death"??
Every couple of days my Diamond crashes, the screen is stuck displaying a noisy grey screen.
Most likely I will have to reinstall the ROM (I'm using SwiftBL 5.5) ... but if there is a simpler solution out there I'd love to know it,
Thanks,
Mike
I've seen that kind of screen but only when I'm playing a particular game and if I switch the Diamond off before closing the game down; when I next switch it on I get the noisy (mostly) grey screen. When this happens to me though I just need to toggle the power on and off a couple of times and it sorts itself out. Or just not switch the thing off when playing that game of course.
None of which helps you of course as yours sounds like a much more serious and randomly occurring issue.
never heard of it before. try changing to a different Hard SPL, these can have funny effects sometimes.
Thanks for reply. Well, at least I'm not alone.
Mine is more worrying alright. I left the Diamond in standby last night, it wasn't running any apps before that, and the phone didn't wake me up with my normal alarm as it had crashed sometime during the night, not doing anything in particular.
do you notice it get unusually hot at any time?
with some diamonds, when it is processing a lot and on charge it can get very hot, and this may have caused ur problem.
Maybe the Hard SPL will help.
One possibly odd thing I notice is that my ROM is listed as 1.93.00.00 on the bootup screen, I expected this to be 1.93.405.1. Is that usual?
It's not the hot or charging possibilities.
I can't find a pattern really, it definitely crashes just sitting there doing nothing.
Does this also happen with a stock rom?
I didn't see it on the stock rom, but that didn't last too long in my diamond and I've been running the Swift one for a couple of months now.
To rule out SPL and radio, you could try different versions there. If that doesn't help, try flashing another rom (maybe also the stock rom).
If this still doesn't get rid of the GSOD, I would send the phone back for repairs.
Sorry, I couldn't be of more help...
Good suggestions, thanks. At least there's something to try without flashing whole rom.
mine is the same, seems to only do it when phone is charging but idle overnight, and certainly not hot when it does it. I am running the stock 1.93 ROM. Maybe it just gets bored lol!
Then mine was very bored.
Always restarted itself during the night - and lost half the battery charge while doing so.
Had it repaired twice and now it works great. They told me it was a software problem, but I wonder what they fixed, because I have flashed the same SPL, radio and rom on my phone as before.
Glad you fixed it. Mine was ordered on the cheap from HK (to Ireland) so I'm reluctant to send it back except in dire need.
I often see it get very hot around the crash time, as if some app is running crazy, would explain the low battery.
BTW, what rom, spl, radio do you use?
I had the same exact problem up till a week ago.
Now I'm happily a satisfied Diamond user. To solve this issue, do either of the following:
1. Find a rom with a newer Manila version, e.g. Dutty > v2.6.
2. Install the latest Manila cab.
Changing hard spl doesnt work, as I had tried them all. Stock rom was more acceptable but the problem still occurs once in a while.
I had changed to Dutty's rom more than a week ago I haven't had the problem ever since. Try it and share with us if it works.
Reason I say its due to Manila is becos Dutty is using a newer version of Manila as compared to the rest.
Oooh, tasty. A confirmed software method of fixing the problem! I'll give that a go and observe the phone for a week. I'll post then if all is well.
Many thanks,
Mike
I'm running Olinex HardSPL 1.93, Radio BS14 and O2 Germany stock rom 1.93.207.2.
I hope knave's solution will do the trick for you.
Hi...
This just append to my phone sometime tonight..!
A left it charging over night ... like I always do..
and when I wake up... there's just a gray screen of death!
I've just flashed my first cooked rom... had stock HTC ROM before...
and my TF3D version is 1.2.35091.2_1813.6..
maybe this was just a freak accident... one time happening??
lets wait and see...
i'm backing up my phone at the moment to hard reset it later. i've got the problem, that in opera when the page (spiegel.de especially) is fully loaded and it idles for 5 secs, the screen turns grey with stripes and blocks slowly. after hitting power on/off 2 times it's normal again, but as soon as it's idling for 5 secs it fades to grey again.
must have messed up something while updating opera
Guys,
I'm in front of a peculiar problem in my HTC Touch diamond; it started around 2 weeks back when I powered on the device it got stuck up at the point where it displays "Touch Diamond" in white fonts in black background...normally, after this point the version details flash in red font at the bottom right corner... But in this case it's getting stuck up at this point not displaying the version details like R 1.09.25.23 …. etc.
assuming that the battery charge is low, I put the device on charging, then after flashing the centre (round) button white light twice or thrice, the device start reboot again and again got stuck up at the "Touch diamond" point, if I continue to charge the set, this cycle starts repeating endlessly.
Then, to check, I got the battery charged in an external charger for 24 hours, and also procured a thick battery (Model. DIAM171, Rating: 3.7 V DC & 1340 mAh) too, and kept the device open for 48 hours or so. The device started smoothly and was functioning well for next ten days.
Then this insect called "new ROM" started biting my brain (?), and at first I had flashed an unsigned hardSPL v1.40 Olinex. Then Radio 1.09.25.23 and then the Sone wwe 2.1. All the flashes were done individually, and successfully.
And by the way, I'm no monkey to this flashing thing too, of course, the courtesy and credit goes to the whiz kids of XDA-Developers for the learning imparted on me. Earlier I'd flashed i mate KJam, then HTC ARTEMIS successfully too.
But, alas, after running the new rom nicely for a few calls, and after one more soft reset, it has come back to square one. That is, "when I powered on the device it got stuck up at the point where it displays "Touch Diamond" in white fonts in black background...normally after this point the version details flash in red font at the bottom right corner... But in this case it's getting stuck up at this point not displaying the version ......"
Please help...friends.... plzzzzzzzzzzzz...help....
By the way, the device is going to the Bootloader smoothly on pressing the volume down button while soft reset.
I tried hard reset the device by pressing the round button and the volume down button while soft reset the device and did hard reset it successfully. Still the problem remains.. plz buddy, plz help...
Yep, found your post...after replaying to ur PM
But I'll post here my answer in case that anyone else could also been interested in it:
"Sorry to hear this issue, although I haven't seen this post in the forum...
Ok. based on your story I think that this issue has nothing to do with the cooked rom you've flashed.
It seems more like an SPL problem. I'd suggest to flash the latest HSPL, the 1.93 one.
Till now none complained about such kinda issue... They bricked the phone or they didn't...But such kind of intermediate behavior never heard...
An other suggestion, try to flash with a branded ROM (try downloading the latest official for ur device).
Waiting for ur feedback.
Good luck!"
at last my Diamond is working again...
Warm regards to Shaks1979 & SeatOne for ur kind and quick response... anyway, my diamond is working again......Yeterday... I had started flashing the Radio... earlier the Radio version was 1.00.25.03 (that came with my phone from the factory) which was upgraded to 1.09.25.23 as the ROM Cooker i.e. Seatone is too using this radio ( SONE v.2.1 WWE by SeatOne)
Yesterday, I flashed the Radio version 1.00.25.05 and the phone started working again.
Guys, as soon as the phone started working, I had flashed two more roms, just to understand what went wrong, & the ROMs are (v6.4FullHDTFl by christonge) and (XBMOD_V2 by xboxmod). The flashings went smoothly. At this moment my phone is on XBMOD_V2 Rom & Radio 1.00.25.05.
After seating back, I tried to understand what went wrong, why the phone was not going beyond "Touch Diamond" display point (in white font) and getting stuck up at that point before the R.... G..... etc version details appear on the screen with font colour red and background black.
The problem was with the Radio 1.09.25.23; but the mechanism of the problem went tangentially above my head, I'm in total darkness. Guys, can anyone of you genius can throw some light.
I shall wait for your inputs in the matter.
I have the same problem. After rebooting ok it goes to start up and gets stuck at the touch diamond screen with info about the radio and stuff in red. It won't turn on for me to re-flash it.
So you just fully charged it and left it a while without the battery in then tried again and it worked
Any help would be great... 8-s
Hi Guys,
I am facing a strange problem since a few weeks. My Blackstone sometime does not switch back on again when I press the Power Button after it was suspended(=NOT switched off).
The only way the get it running again is removing the battery and putting it in again. After that the device takes a really long time to boot. Stays at the Smart Device Screen (with ROM info displayed) for about 30 - 40 seconds.
This happened about 4 times the last 6 weeks.
All ROMs used were from LEO - all kind of different versions. It also happen with the newest one 3.2
SPLs: HSPL, HSPL 1.56, SPL 1.56
Did anyone else notice such a behavior? Do you think this is a sign of a Hardware problem, or could it be software related?
Greetings,
Tommi
got that often when i do something stupid with it ie installing some software wrongly.
ive had to hard reset it each time, but luckily i had sprite backup before that at some point. and it works then
posted twice
