Do you have a custom rom or a stock rom?
What rom are you using?
What radio are you using?
Can you tell us the available memory you have?
Do you have a task manager installed, and are you making sure everything is closed prior to opening new programs?
That information will be helpful in figuring out what's going on. Let us know, thanks! =)
If you don't have one of the newer custom roms, you're pretty much guaranteed to get an answer of "install hardspl / new radio / rom".
If you have a stock rom from HTC... you're gonna hear "reflash the phone with the stock rom, and if it still does it.. return the phone, or flash it with a custom one".
How much warranty do you have left?
Can you also give us a list of what programs you have installed, and which ones are usually running?

Thanks for the quick response. There are a lot of questions so i took a bunch of screen shots. Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anymore detail.
See second post as i am unable to post all pics in one post.
Thankyou

I am also running battibar in the background.

Well, from what i gather from the screenshots you posted everything should be working fine. There's no reason it should be freezing up, unless there is some sort of conflict, or corrupt program.
Have you noticed that it happens after opening a certain program, or is it really random?

Oh, I take it that's a stock rom right? You never flashed the phone, you just installed individual cab files, right?

It seems to be random but then on the other hand ive noticed that it usually happens when its been sitting on the charger and idle (for example, i'll pop it on the charger before bed, and when i wake up in the morning its frozen). Also it happens at work when its connected to my pc via activesync and after i havent been doing anything for a while.

Well... it could be overheating. If that's the case it's gotta go back. How much warranty do you have left on the phone before it ends?

Well, just like I posted above. Everything seems fine... and since you are using the stock rom you only have a few choices. You can start uninstalling programs 1 by 1... (noting which ones you uninstall so you can put them back on). Go 1/2 a day, and see if you still have the problem after uninstalling each program. That will help narrow down the theory about corrupt programs or conflicts.
Another option, is reloading the stock rom from HTC... and don't install anything. See how that works for a day... if it's fine, then you can start installing programs.... then if the problem occurs, you know it's got to be something with one of the program you've put on there.
Then you could always just uninstall everything, reset everything, and send it back and get a new phone.... but if it's the software causing the issue, and you put the same software back on the new phone.. you'll just be right back in the same situation again.
If you have warranty time left, i'd uninstall everything, and demand a new phone because of teh issues you are having. Onec you get it, then i'd flash with a custom rom... just make sure you do it right. =)
EDIT: Hell even if you don't have any warranty left, i'd STILL flash with a custom rom. I can't even begin to tell you how much better my phone runs now that it's flashed compared to before. I was using the stock ROM before from HTC, i had some issues... it was a bit laggy... so i reflashed with the stock rom, limited the software i put on it.. etc. etc.... still ran like dog piss... so i flashed, and well..... you get the picture. It's awesome now.

10 months. But i dont feel any heat whatsoever, and the other day i was using it at work all day connected via activesync and it didnt freeze up. its only when i leave it idle on the charger.... Last weekend i kept getting messages from friends all during the night while it was on the charger (i was reading messages) and it didnt freeze.

So if it's sitting still for a long time without activity.. it freezes. Hmm... well i could give you a dozen things to try, but they'd just be bandaid fixes anyway. If it's freezing something isnt right.
Read my first post on page 2 of this thread you started and that should give you your options. FLASH!!

Coming to the end of my tether with this phone!

Hi all,
for some reason, when i mess around with my phone, and install stuff, the people tabs stops working, and its starting to really bug me.
It seems that when i install stuff it happens, like just now. I had some themes and a font installed, and the phone was running perfect, and now, i just installed something else, and the people tab has died!
Does anybody know of the reason for this? Do i have a faulty phone?

I dont have any problems with this phone what so ever (using Duttys latest 2.5). To me it sounds like your installing faulty applications.

Its nothing that loads of people on here havent installed on their devices!

then you must be doing something wrong because this is the first i've heard of this problem

Actually I have the same problem. For some reason the entries of faforite people dissapear from the people tab. I run a stock Dutch ROM with nothing special...
Anybody know a solution?

Yup thats exactly what happens to me. Do you get an error report and then it goes back to the home screen and says launching touch flo 3d?
I run a stock ROM, and its really bugging me, because the good thing about win mo is that ability to install these kinds of apps, but im afraid to because the chances are it will bring back this errror.

I really don't understand why plp stay with crappy/buggy old roms... just because they are official... you should spend 10 minutes to cook one of the newest roms here around and you'll see how many steps they are forward to "official" ones

Agreed....I hate to say this gents, but the original ROMs that HTC publish are not as good as you think they are
If I were you I would pick a resectable ROM that looks like what you require, set your PDA up and "flash" away all the quirks and bugs that HTC introduce to the device!
I know its not right, but thats life with HTC.......

Official ROMs are fine.... until you find this forum
then you start installing apps... tweaking... uninstalling... it all gets messy.
You baisically try and create what custom ROMs do on top of a 'Official' ROM. Best advice is to Flash a ROM, you can always put it back to 'out of the box condition' by flashing the SPL and Official ROM back (i've had to twice for repairs )

if you are talking about your favorites clearing, that happened to me when i moved the people tab. i bet your favorites are hard coded to that location so moving or altering it messes it up in some way.

resetting?

recently my phone has been acting weird, for an example, today, i was at work and i was responding to a text, and as i was typing my phone suddenly froze, and then next thing i see is the "android" screen and it starts back up, im just wondering if anyone else has this problem, its been doing this for about 3 days now? or if anyone could tell me how to get around this problem itd be really great, thanks..

Some background info would be nice.

yeah I had this same problem when i was on an earlier version of CM experimental build, the problem for me was that it would do what i would call a soft reboot, where the android loading screen would appear and load for a couple seconds then go back to the home screen.
I found this problem out in the browser when i was trying to go back to the prvious pagr it would "reset" I dont know the cause but maybe you should get a Log of the error or when this happens and post it here or send to Cyanogen

Yeah some more background information would help us assit you with the issue. If possible create a signature with information about the ROM you use and any settings.

seriously though no one is going to help you if you don't want to tell us any background info, and if you don't want to, then why make a thread to begin with.

i didnt mean to be a smart a** what i meant by that was everything is how the phone comes out of the box, no rooting, no roms, no nothing, sorry if i came off the wrong way
well here it goes..
firmware 1.5
and build # CRC1
haha thats basically it?

Will rooting the Nexus one/Froyo cause problems?

Guys, I had someone here talk me through rooting my nexus one with froyo and I'm running into some problems but I didn't know if it had something to do with rooting it or not and the reason is, I got it rooted the same day I received it so I hadn't tried those functions before I got it rooted.
I got it rooted so I could buy this program that makes the fonts larger and it required a rooted phone.
Well, today I was going to try to use it as a hot spot or wifi router and when I tried to enable it, it just says error.
Also, when trying to call and talk to people today, they could barely hear me and I had a hard time hearing them (not sure if this was temporary or not because later, although in a different area, it sounded fine).
When trying to reply to some e mail (online email/godaddy) when I clicked where the text/body goes, I could not type anything 'cause the keyboard wouldn't come up. If I clicked in the email or subject areas, the keyboard came up but not in the body text area.
Any ideas?
I guess I could reset it to default settings to see what happens but it took almost two hours to get it rooted so I really would like to avoid that.
Thanks
George

This should be in Q&A!
Not dev related.
To solve your problem:
looks like a bad boot.img for me.
I always had "Activiating Wifi"... "Error" with bad boot.img.
MOD: move to Q&A

Thanks. I wasn't sure about where to put it and thought there was possibly bigger chance of a reply here. Thanks for moving it.
So, considering I have NO idea what I'm doing and someone else helped me, is the answer to my next question short and simple or not?
What do I do about it?
No, I have no idea what a boot image is.
Should I try to get hold of the guy who helped me root it or see if someone else can talk me though how to fix it?
Thanks
George

Im not a Mod, I did not move your thread.
The boot.img is part of a ROM.
But I don't know what ROM you're using, what build (FRF50/72/85B/91) nor the kernel etc.
I cannot tell you more right now.
Just try a new rooter update.zip because yours might have broke your WiFi.
See Cyanogen's or re-flash a pre-rooted rom.

Actually, I noticed it wasn't moved yet but anyway, I think I have the 72 but still, not sure, I'll have to investigate 'cause I like this phone and I would LIKE it to work for me. Especially since I can apparently use it on tmobile and att.
THanks
The hunt continues
George

no rooting in general does not harm your phone or cause problems in any way. however it is possible to mess something up, maybe install something or screw up settings or similar that could cause problems. you can always flash back to factory ROM, or hard reset, to get your phone working again.
even better, since you are rooted, you should be creating nand backups. and anytime something goes wrong, you restore to a working nand backup to a state that you know your phone was working good.

Yeah, now I have to figure out how to do this but thanks for the replies

Sorry. We've removed as much as we can and we still have the smallest ROM that I'm aware of.

Great Job Team YAR
Ok since i am new it wont let me post to the forums But instead go into the q/a.. So team YAR Firstly i just want to say great work on the rom however i few have few concerns and such.... Hangouts is great for sms however some people like the stock sms anyway to reimpliment that in case of someone not wanting to use hangouts as default as that is the only sms that is implemented in the rom. Also battery life is ok not a lot of things to bog it down however for some reason when your in the 3g vs 4g lte battery drain is hell. Is that a common issue when you have a 4g lte phone? Also i took a look through the build prop when i found out this rom has zero tethering capabilities. I turned the values on the build prop to reflect that tething is all in fact on however it does not allow tethering it stays greyed out. I could tether without an issue before this rom using Raptop rom. Im not calling any rom better i feel it is a based on taste decision. But i would like your rom 100% better if it included tethering. Also with this phone and i dont know if it falls the same for all boost variants but the hotspot feature has to do a subscription check to see if you actually paid for a monthly subscription. I did a little digging on the stock rom and found how to bypass it and tether without an issue. But could you please for the sake of other people include tethering with or without a bypass either native or a working 3rd party app. Also is there a way to make more space up because htc and boost did a real job on leaving little to no space and even with links2sd dont clear much up. Could removing some of the launchers help resolve the space issue?..... Sorry for the novel just my concerns

Try pulling the battery. When I get hung up like that sometimes, pulling it usually does the trick. Worth a try. Let us know.

Oh yeh, was coming from RaptorRom v2. Cant get voicemail notifications with it and no visual voicemail so hoping to get on DragonRom. Yeh I have to do battery pull when the HTC screen freezes cause the power won't shut off at that point even when held down. The zip says it flashes and installs SUCESSFULLY, so I don't get it.

Sometimes I have to do a "factory reset/wipe" like 3-4 times and then flash the ROM again. Usually, if all is good and I am installing the right thing, doing the right things etc, if boots up eventually. I know it can be a pain in the As* and it gets very frustrating at times, but usually it'll eventually work. Good luck man!!!

We didn't implement native tethering at this time. I'm sure its a function well include in a future version.
Per the space issue, Minimalist has literally just about everything we could remove, removed, if we find more things to remove, we will continue to do so. We are already planning our next release, unfortunately there is no eta currently.
As per Hangouts. I think the reason @dragonhart6505 included it is because it functions both as SMS and Hangouts. It's killing two birds with one stone for those that use Hangouts. As always, you can remove anything you deem unnecessary and replace it with your preferred app. I'm not at my computer, but if I remember correctly it is located in /system/app so you'll have to use Titanium to remove it. The kernel is pre-rooted and the write protection is disabled.

Native tethering has not been enabled as of yet, but we will work on including it. I use PDANet to tether via USB and Bluetooth, but its WiFi function does not work on our device. We'll get tethering resolved in a near update.
As @dip_spit said, we removed as much as possible while staying sure everything worked as it should. I am currently tearing through the entire system to find what cam be removed and what should stay. Minimalist is perfect if space is a concern, however you wont get much more than ~1gb on a stock based rom.

We recommend flashing from a Stock TWRP backup and factory reset as other roms appear to be conflicting with the permissions needed by a stock-based rom.
We apologize for the inconvenience and we are working on making DragonRom a fully flashable, self-sustained rom that requires no such system to be installed prior to flashing. It is alot of work getting the permissions necessary for this, so please bare with us.
Ive been late to the thread here as i was unaware it existed. Ive now subbed to the thread and will monitor it frequently

Ty
Thank you i was just wondering spacewise if links to sd would clear much more space if i was flashing minimalist rom and building from there? Also as for the tethering i hope its in your future release because i do tether alot lol and i cant always make use of bluetooth tether. But great job never the less im looking forward to testing anything new. Also i have a stock roms from any carrier as well as build.prop from any said carrier if needed.

first time poster
1st off... absolutely love this rom. I've been running the minimal rom for over a week, almost as soon as it was posted. Most storage space I've had yet on my phone! Any problems I had with initial install have easily been dealt with. The one problem I had from from the install was google play not working, would crash as soon as launched. Was solved by sending new version from my computer to install on phone. After my friend saw the rom, we tried to install the featured rom on his phone which got stuck on the HTC boot screen. This problem was solved by installing the stock backup from this site then installing the rom again. But again we love this rom, Thanks Team YAR!!!

Does DragonROM currently support Link2SD's mount scripts at boot for other filesystems than FAT? Also, how risky would it be to try Xposed at this stage of development?

Xposed works pretty well for everyone who everyone who has installed. Remember to make TWRP backups before you install anything.

Front Facing Camera
**Ok I did a search from camera on this particular thread and nothing popped up, so sorry if someones already covered this but....
Has anyone tested the front facing camera on this mod? I need my selfies brah. Nah! but would be nice to have this back! Yo! My camera? Sweet innocent camera --never hurt anyone.

I think I screwed myself.
I think I really got a BRICK here. Ok, I did something stupid. I flashed the HBOOT trying to get the S-OFF but failed. All I got not is HBOOT and under that it says checking.,... overlaying the word checking are the words Press <POWER> to reboot. And that is it. If I try to boot regularly is hangs on the HTC Logo. Did I just really brick my phone for life???
FYI, device is NOT found using adb or fastboot. Interesting this though, when I did have the nonsense rom up and had this HBOOT issue, I could boot regularly and use flashify to boot into recover. So recover is there I just have NO way of getting to it now. Every since I flash with Dragon, no offence, cause dragon is hanging on me at the HTC Logo. AAAAHHHHHHHUUUGHHH. I just broke my phone, I think.

WAIT! I'm back in baby!!!! HOOOOLLLLIYYYY MOLE' Apparently the HBOOT IMG was in the form of a zip files that was placed in the root of the SD CARD. As I go into HBOOT, bootloader is trying to upgrade to this zip file.. Once I took the SD Card out, bouya! HBOOT is back. What a scare that was. Still having issues booting into the new flash rom, however. I think i'm done for today though... i'm hanging up the hat for the day.

My phone is stuck on the HTC screen after installing DragonRom through the TWRP. I followed all of the directions. I'm on VM.
