View Full Version : Star Trek Locking up like crazy

My wife has been waiting for her Star Trek since May (because the Norwegian importer couldn't get new mobos until recently), because the phone had been restarting at random. But this new mobo is worse! For two days it worked OK, but today it started locking up like crazy. First happened after a phone call, and when we got home, I discovered that turning it on made it lock up on the blue HTC/Qtek screen before the WM5 screen. I then had to remove the battery for a minute or so to make it start up again.

I had installed a couple of programs, so I wanted to wipe it clean to see if that was the problem. After 10-15 attempts I finally managed to do a full hard reset, and it lasted about five minutes of configuration, then it locked up again (on writing the owner's name). Does this sound like anything anybody here has seen, and is there any point in trying to upgrade/downgrade the ROM? This ROM was something with 5, not 4, as the May ROM. Thanks in advance!

Sounds like hardware issue. Sorry.

Yep, I'd say hardware. Especially if you're running the latest ROM. I'd contact HTC, it really should be a warrantied thing...

Thanks! It probably will be since they put in this mobo less than a week ago, and this was the second repair. In Norway there's a three strikes rule for repairs of stuff.
