Guest vatvedt Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 (edited) Sometimes when I start to use my camera, either with the camera feature, or Footprint feature, my Hero reboots. Sometimes it's working as it should, and sometimes it reboots the second I start the camera. I figured it might have something to do with the 3D Gallery. Uninstalled that. Didn't seem to help. I've uninstalled the FX Camera as well, to no avail. Every now and then it reboots when I try to use the camera. Only then. Otherwise it's great. Using 2.1 R5 with the newest (.14) radio. I can't seem to find why the camera triggers the reboot. Any ideas? It's really annoying! :) Edit: Typo Edited July 12, 2010 by vatvedt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jissay Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Same issue here, with camera and video recorder. I'm also using the 2.1 R5 from the kitchen with app2sd and the last radio rom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vatvedt Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 I tried to bake a new rom, wipe everything, and still the camera randomly reboots the phone. So it's either my phone that has a problem with 2.1, or the it's an issue with the R5 2.1 rom that my phone don't like. Haven't tried another rom though. Just Modaco R5 2.1 rom. I'm really happy with that rom, except for the randomly reboot bug. Anyone got any ideas? If I'm to try another rom, is there a rom close to Modacos R5, that I can install? So I don't have to repartition my SD card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest vatvedt Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 ChocolateEclair 2.0 was great. It didn't solve my problem though.. After upgrading from 1.5 to 2.1, my phone still reboots at random when I use my camera. Guess my handset really doesn't like 2.1.. :angry: Any ideas anyone?

Guest Baggieboy Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 It's happened to me too, I'm using the generic HTC Europe ROM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vatvedt Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 The reboot only seems to happen when the phone is on battery though. Never when it's charging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vatvedt Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 In my case, it seems like the power management is the reason for my phone rebooting at random when I start the camera. I can trigger the reboot almost every time by adjusting the light brightness on the power management widget, and then start my camera. Do this one or two times, makes the phone reboot the next time I start the camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eq4ever Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 In my case (r5) using the camera disables automatic screen brightness and sets it to max. Luckily, no reboots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vatvedt Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 That's the problem on my phone. It reboots whenever the brightness is set to max, if I trigger the camera at that point. Except the first time after reboot, and not if I'm charging my phone. I've contacted HTC and I'm sending in the phone for repair. :/ Hate to part with my phone for 2-3 weeks, but I'd rather have a fully working phone.

Guest vatvedt Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Seems like a change of mainboard had to be made. Hardware fault. Working now, but had to send it in (twice), for them to fix it. Case closed it seems. Hoping the error don't return :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest vatvedt Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 The problem on my phone wasn't that it was terrible. The phone rebooted at random when using it. Regarding the best rom, it depends on what version of Android you want, Sense or Vanilla and if you got GSM or CDMA Hero. And usually people prefer different kind of roms. You should look in another thread regarding this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
