Kaiser repeatedly rebooting itself

[skipball]

I have had a long weekend of reading and searching forums and need some help. I have managed to solve by previous issue of my Kaiser getting stuck in the tricolor screen.

Used the mtty file to reboot.

I have Hard SPL and now loaded Duttys Diamond V9. It took a number of efforts to get it to load but I was able to do this after loading the original HTC 6.1 Rom

Now i have a new problem with my Kaiser continually rebooting. This happens no matter which ROM I flash with. Can anyone help me.

Just a guess - but you may have some bad blocks that are in the boot loader area.

Here is what I would do -
1. try loading a different ROM and see if that solves the problem (it seems as if you have already done this)
2. if you continue to have this issue I would send a message to either JOCKY or GSLEON3 - PM them and let them know what your issue is. Theya re the best at this sort of thing.

Good luck,
Bill

Honestly,

What I would do is flash back to original ROM and bring it back to the store if you still have your warranty... As I think this could indeed be a physical issue, might not be resolvable with software,

Did you HR prior to flash as well as after the flash? I had this happen once and now I always HR prior to flash and after Flash. Sometimes multiple HR's prior and post just because I am neurotic. Did you try removing the SIM card? Or maybe try using a different radio. Sometimes this behavior can be a radio issue. If you are using one of Dutty’s ROM, try using the Polaris radio. Try re-flashing the radio first, THEN re-flash your Dutty ROM and see if that helps. Probably a compatibility issue between the ROM and Radio, no? Maybe?

Anyway, hope this helps. I know it is frustrating. :)

Hrm,

I get this sometimes too. I'm thinking perhaps its an issue with one of your today screen plugins...I am sure that's what has caused it on my device before.

I doubt that it is a today screen plug-in. If im understanding this correctly his Kaiser reboots b4 it even loads WM, so it wouldnt be a today screen issue.

Actually, he never said it would not boot into WM. :) He said that he finally got the dutty ROM to load and NOW his kaiser reboots continually which is why I posted what I posted. I didn't see where he said that it resets before it even loads WM. Although his second to last line does leave me wondering if he means that no matter what ROM he flashes it resets before WM OR if he means that he can flash ROMS, get to WM and then has the reset problem. The latter would be indicative of a today plugin.

Thanks for the replies.

It boots before and after the windows screen and is inconsistent.

Could it be a problem in the boot loader? I did have to flash the first couple of times from the tricolor screen.

I have also had problems with the soft reset button. It now seems to be ok after the last flash but prior i could not get the unit to hard or soft reset.

Here is what i get when i enter tricolor screen and run mtty

Cmd>set 14 0

Cmd>task 28
Format start
Fill RSVD information for block 288 to 309
Storage start sector=0xA480, total sector=0x10E40
Storage start block=679, total block=1081
Total Bad Block in CE: 0

Erase physical block from 967 to 2032

si backup: Erase physical block from 2032 to 2048

Format end

Cmd>boot
InitDisplay: Display_Chip=1

Fill RSVD information for block 288 to 309
Storage start sector=0xA480, total sector=0x10E40
Storage start block=679, total block=1081
Total Bad Block in CE: 0

Erase physical block from 967 to 2032

si backup: Erase physical block from 2032 to 2048

I'd strongly suggest try a different radio that's got good reputation for your OS.

Or could it also be dirt in the soft reset hole? I don't know...

ok I have now returned my phone to its original state. I Followed the procedures outlines in Sirsycho post (thanks)

It now appears the phone has stabilised.
Although I have managed to kill my original Battery in the process. Lucky for the back up battery.

The device is still rebooting so I guess there is a bigger problem then I can sort out

Is there a possibility that my soft reset button could have issues. It is definitely only working randomly!

For diamond we have L26 V9 ROM and Dutty V1 ROM. Which one of these do you have?

Mine will reboot randomly if I'm using Opera Mobile 9.5 beta or have it open. That happened to me with both the Laurentius and Dutty ROMs. I'm using the new HTC ROM that was posted over the weekend with the new radio and haven't done a lot of browsing but it hasn't happened yet.

Not sure if this is the issue, but I loaded Dutty's Diamond not long ago, and my Kaiser reset every time I opened WMP. There's been a few reports of it, although some haven't had that problem. Loading a WMP cab does NOT fix it for me (again, some have had luck, other's haven't).

@skipball
sounds to me like this could be hardware related .. maybe your soft reset button is stuck pushed in ... just a theory. If the phone is reverted back to original state you could always return for warranty/replacement.

I returned my phone to its original state (I hope LOL!) and will send it back to HTC. It is still rebooting.
