I didn't know why, but suddenly my phone just keeps rebooting every minute. I'm sure that I didn't do anything that might cause this reboot. I used my phone only for browsing, a little bit of chatting and facebook.

I've tried wiping dalvik and cache, reflash the rom, even tried another rom, but reboot still happen.

For the info:
Hboot 1.50
S-off (juopunotbear)
Radio 1.06 (it used to be 2.17, but I think juopunot changed it)

I was running on d3rp ICS. Could it he something to do with the ICS rom?

Thanks for the help..!!
 
It could be the Rom, it also could be the kernel if you flashed a different kernel, I would try restoring a Nandroid that worked, then take it from there and see.

How long have you had this current ICS Rom on, it also could be app related, there could me many reasons why, also some Roms work fine for a few days or weeks then they go Wonky, try flashing the Rom again and see if that resolves the issue.



It was ok until today, when it started to rebooting.. but thanks anyway.

I've tried d3rp ICS and Mean ICS, both gave me reboot. Both are not the newest version, i didn't have time to update. I don't know if the version is related to this issue. But d3rp ICS was always running fine for me.

As for kernel, I use stock kernel. I'm not sure if that's the problem, but if you recommend other kernel, I will try it.

I've also tried to restored nandroid, also no good.

Do I have to update radio?

I can't really remember, 2 months i think.
Yes, I thought it had something to do with applications or battery.

I'm gonna download another rom, and then start from scratch.

Yep, most are adding more apps thus the reason why, also try an app from the play store called RomToolbox, I like it better so far than Titanium Back, and has many other features with it, check the video out

Yes sir, downloading it right now. I'm in 4EXT recovery, pretty solid since the first day.

I'll get back after flashing the Imagik ROM.

PS: the ROM size is getting bigger and bigger nowadays, isn't it?

What is it, Don? Something that works like Titanium Backup?
I'll take a look after downloading the rom. The connection seems quite slow lately.

Yep like TB, but I like it better so far and also has a bunch of other tools for rooted users, check it out, it is free, unless you want to upgrade to Pro which I might do. :smokingsomb:

It's cool, but I still need my TB to restore all applications. Lol. Ok, Toolbox looks cool, worth to try, isn't it?

Back to the topic, while downloading the Imagik, I just flashed SOS rom (it's the only rom in my laptop that I haven't tried :D). So far it's working fine, without reboot. But to be sure, I will see further to check whether it's ok or not.

SOS runs smooth, and works fine for me. The only problem is the built in launcher. I'm used to Sense UI, so other than that doesn't look good for me. :p I know that I may not used HTC forever, but for now, I just enjoy Sense too much.

So far the problem is solved for me, but do you have any idea of what had happened or what caused the reboot? I have been flashing rom since my old days with OG Evo without any problem, but just in case I'm missing something here and if it's not too much, could you please give me a quick step by step procedure for flashing rom? I mean about what I should do and what I shouldn't. Just to refresh and update my knowledge.
