General :: Can't Turn On HTC Desire SV
May 14, 2013
I can't turn on my HTC Desire SV.This problem arise after unsucessful try update my Android I can't enter boot menu. I try get out battery, press and hold "volume down", insert battery back and press "power", but nothing happens. I get out both SIM and Memory card and try again, but nothing happens too If i connect my HTC to PC, PC define it as "Unknown Device" As i understood, the bootloader crashed probably. To recover bootloader, i need to flash my HTC with special flashing device, e.g. riff box. Is it correct and only solve of my problem? Or other methods to recovery my smartphone (without using special devices) are exist?

So I use the task killer...and at the moment say when I kill tasks it'll tell me there is about 200M avaliable memory free...if I use the phone for a day it'll maybe go down to 150M even if I am still killing apps and there is nothing in 'running services'. If i turn off the phone and turn it back on it goes up to 250M. What is running that I can't stop myself to make it go down from the 250M but that I can just eliminate by turning off the phone?

Last night (03/06/2013) my HTC Desire X was connected to my laptop (Lenovo Ideapad Z570) and was connected to HTC Sync Manager, and I was trying to sync my contacts, because I didn't want to loose them. I had previously backed up my photos and music, and just before I went to the Contacts tab, the phone screen and touch buttons went off, but the little red LED at the top stayed on, and didn't flash, and I think the phone turned off, but it showed no screen with HTC on it, it just went straight off. It wasn't the battery loosing charge because it was plugged in, was charging at the time and was over 50% charged before I plugged it in. When I plug it into either AC power or USB charger, the little red LED comes on, but nothing else happens.
So I tried to take out the battery for around 5 mins and then put it back in and leave it for about 5 mins, but still nothing. I then tried to hold down the Power button for around 30 secs and it didn't work. Then I tried to hold down Vol- and Power for around 6-10 secs, and still nothing. I then tried to leave it on charge over night and see what that would do, but it did nothing. When I leave it on charge over night it charges fully, and the red LED turns green, but when I plugged it in, it just went red and stayed red. The phone was new when I got it. I haven't rooted it at all, haven't loaded any ROMs onto it or anything. I haven't tried rooting it or anything, and haven't tried any ADB stuff.I haven't downloaded anything from a website I can't trust.
I was going to root my device, and that's why I was backing up, but I had already backed up my music and photos from before, but I wanted to make sure so I did it again. I don't know if it's bricked or not, but I've a feeling it is, and I don't know what it is that I did to brick it. I really need the contacts off it though, and I have ADB set up from before when I was just about to root it after I backed everything up. I now have the SIM and SD out of the phone in case it damages them, and I have the phone connected to the laptop with the battery out. I heard that you can take data from a phone using ADB, so when I set up everything, everything was ready and the red light was on on the phone, but the ADB couldn't find any devices. I am running ADB from cmd, and run cmd in administrator mode. I want to try to take all the data from my phone, and then hard reset it using ADB, because the hardware buttons won't come on on the phone.

I have a problem since few days with sw HTC Locations ( I think is that).
Let me explain, often when I'm using the phone asks me to turn on the GPS because otherwise the navigator of Location does not work, when I do cancels and then get out, I came back after just 15 seconds and then continues with the same demands indefinitely.
I reset phone and I formatted the memory card , but now after reconfiguring the mobile phone presents itself to me again, what would it be?
I also checked with Kaspersky, but nothing found. That practically stops me using a mobile phone?

Last night I put the phone in airplane mode over night.Apns were turned off when I did this. (I do this every night to save battery).This morning, I turned airplane mode off, and tried turning Apn on again, but it wont turn on. (I use Extended Controls Bar widget)I have done a soft reboot (3 actually), but that made no difference.If i go to menu/settings/wifi and network, and look at the text next to the mobile network (Apn) checkbox it says: Connection failed due to incorrect APN setting.I havent changed any settings as far as i know.

i asked this over at the HTC Desire Z forum's as that's the phone I'm after, but I'm guessing that these two phones are more or less the same (apart from the Camera & Keyboard)So Just wondering if anyone knows yet if you can Turn Sense UI Off? I've found a load of topics/videos for turning sense off on the Evo/Desire but not the HD or Z.

I am thinking about getting a Desire on Vodafone uk. I live in Northern Ireland near the Irish border and have to turn off roaming on my current phone because when driving around the area it can alternate between Vodafone uk and Vodafone ie. Before I make the change could someone tell me if it is possible to turn off roaming?

Is there a setting that I can use so that the HTC tune does not play when I turn the phone on? Also, is there any way of rebooting the phone without turning it off and then on? Something like a restart in windows.

I have an app that allows me to turn off/on my bluetooth and wifi with one click but can't seem to find one that turns off the GPRS data connection.
I've gone into turn off the Background data but i still get the arrow pointing away from the phone at the top under the "H" symbol showing that data is still being transmitted intermittently. I have set my facebook, email and weather etc to update manually.
the only way that i can stop the arrows under the H from flashing (i presume thats the gprs transfering data) is to have my wifi on then the "H" goes away. But I am trying to conserve battery so i would like to have wifi, bt and gprs off until i need it.

Having discovered that having the Bluetooth enabled all the time more than halves my battery life, I now keep Bluetooth turned off. However, when I get in the car I turn it on. Using the built-in apps to do this is a bit convoluted. What is the quickest way to enable and disable Bluetooth on the HTC Desire?

It's not a huge deal, I actually don't mind having it on it's just in the interest of conserving battery life I'd quite like to get rid of it. It really don't seem to want to turn off though! I've tried restarting the device but it's still there.

I have the screen controlled whilst charging with Home > menu > settings >applications > development > stay awake checked. Fine but sometimes I do want the screen to power down such as when I am charging from a battery pack rather than wall or car socket. Ideally a button on the Home screen.

I was wondering if I can use the Desire as a wireless adapter for a PC. I mean to connect it through USB so the PC will detect it as a wireless adapter, just like a USB wifi adapter. I'm not talking about tethering and sharing the 3G internet with the PC.
Well, I would like to know if it's possible on any Android device in general, or at least to know if it's just impossible with Android OS.

On the froyo rom there is no option to the turn the alarm off once it goes off. When you unlock the phone, you cant turn the alarm off other than turning the phone off.

I'm getting the desire on pay as you go and while I will use GPRS for apps when out and for browsing, I'd rather not have it on 24/7 draining my wallet. Can the GPRS access be turned on and off when you want it, or is it always on?

In an effort not to be just a lurker here, I thought I'd ask about something I cannot seem to adjust on my new US Cellular Droid Desire. I would like to silence the start up tones that happen during the US Cellular startup screen when powering up the phone. There are situations where I would like to be able to start up my phone silently. Is there a way to just shut off the startup sounds?
