My HTC Desire does not shut down

[Turnipfarmer]

Hey guys this is my first post on Androidforums so I hope you can help me.

My HTC Desire no longer shuts down, I sometimes need to shut down just to help keep the phone working at its best but when I power off the spinning circle just keeps spinning saying shutting down.

I have left it for a couple of hours before and its still stuck there, never used to have this problem with my phone when I first got it.

I am running an Orange branded phone with Android 2.1. I really don't like this Orange 2.1, its pants and alot slower than a stock 2.1 or the new 2.2.

Any help on this issue would be great guys

This issue appears to have been fixed in 2.2

i used to have this problem too but, as mikebell just said, after the update to 2.2, it seems to be fixed and my desire turns off within 10-15 seconds.

try looking at this thread for my help:
