1.35 radio problem

After i upgraded to this radio i have had interesting problems with my phone. ithought it was bricked and it very well could be. But sometimes it decides it wants to work but after a minute or two it cuts off. when a softreset or hard reset are perfromed i get nothing but a white screen. I can tell it goes thru the whole process bekuzz usually after putting it to sleep a few times i get my regular screen but the radio doesnt seem to be connected. any help would be appreciated. also the buttons on the face of the phone dont seem to work.Thanx
What is "Regular Screen"?
Regular screen means the screen u would normally get after your boot and splash screen. Or better said my today screen. Sometimes i cant get my today screen up. i had BL 1.04 before the upgrade if that matters any
Today screen is very good! your device isn't fully bricked. It may be a bad radio flash or it may be a hardware issue that merely coincided with your radio upgrade. Next time you get a today screen, try to flash one of the other sspl based radio only updates (find in wiki under radio only upgrades). Remember to practice safe flashing techniques!
usb on rear usb port. No usb hubs!
all winapps closed
running winXP Pro
activesync connected
screensaver/sleep mode off (flashing takes 20+ minutes)
i have flashed the 1.27 radio again without having my today screen and that did nothing. It went thru the whole process of flashing and everything but same results, just a white screen when booting up and afterwards. im downloading the 1.34 radio now.
You need to flash the sspl version which requires first being on the Today Screen (not white screen). Tri-color boot screen will show v1.09-Des if you do this.
i guess i will have to wait to see if i get another today screen and hope that it doesnt reset itself
does it matter that i can put my phone to sleep and wake it up over and over, i just keep getting the white screen. bekuzz now i cant seem to get my today screen back anymore
ok i have done what u said and flashed the 1.34 radio and still have the same problem. after the flash i had my today screen for a minute then it reset itself and now is gone and back to the white screen. also when i was on the today screen i didnt have control of the buttons only touch screen.
i think i may have a different problem. it doesnt seem to be resetting itself everytime it goes blank but that the screen is dying on me. hmmmmmm....... this is quite strange. i can also recieve calls. i cant answer them but the handset rings.
This may be silly but if I were in your place I'd just reflash everything with an official rom that replaces everything (i.e. SA 1.35) and see if that fixes the problem (though i might wait until somebody who knows more then me verifies this is a good thing to try). I'm wondering if the bad flash somehow effected something in your OS or something.
When I mess something up like this, I like to get back to a place which has been known to work - then I have a better idea of where I am (ie brick or bad flash)
Hope this helps
yea i actually went back to the original cingular ROM that came with the phone. so we shall see what happens from here. i also will have Cingular send me a new phone, i was tired of the scratches anyway. So far they havent noticed that my phones are supercid yet. Keeping my fingers crossed
Hardware problem IMHO...
Sleuth u are right. No matter what i do to the phone it yields the same result. My screen still turns off and the buttons dont work. iwonder what couldve caused this. i didnt drop it. well not recently anyway. BTW.... is there anyway to get the original 1.16 radio back on there. i tried doing it but it just hangs at 0%.
Thanks Sleuth for all your help, you are definetly one of the reasons this forum is helpful. That and that good ole WIKI.

Ive read everything and tried everything but screen is white after upgrading ROM

Hello Everyone,
I bought a verizon Titan with a kitchen ROM with WM 6.1. Yesterday I decided to try to cook one myself with WM 6.5. Everything was fine except ehe "start" button stopped working after some minutes. I cooked another opne with less programs. Then I thought it would be a good idea to use the Spbbackup I had to try to get some programs back. It told me that there has been a ROM update I clicked ok and it did its thing.
I had problems with that ROM so tried one that was in one called WM6.5Beta with WM 6.5 after that it boots, then I get a WM6.5 green screen and then the screen goes white. I though it was the Radio so I updated to the 3.42.5. No change, I tried the exitbootloader program no change. I tried to get another kitchen ROM into the Titan but the pc does not detect the Tytan. Ive tried everything I even used the las Sprint Stock Rom via Sdcard and it got to the Htc screen "no Radio". I installed the 3.42.5 Radio and I got to the WM6.5 green screen again and then it turns white.
The weird thing is that if I press the Powerbuton i get the "Power will be turned off and you may lose.." you know the usual. but I can not selkect either yes or no, the screen freezes and turns black. Another wird thing is that all the screens I see when I boot are the one I installed in my last kitchen ROM. I have tried millions hard resets, softresets, removing battery... I am really lost and I need my phone back!! Did I brick my phone? I can put new Roms and Radio through sd card method but this new ROMs dont seem to take effect since I always get the same screens...
Any help will be appreciated.
oh also If I slide the keyboard there is this "chimes" sound. So I guess a ROM is actually active but the screen is white and nothing else works...
The Flex Cable is going bad. Its the wiring so the screen can slide in and out. It can take abuse and go bad over time. Easy replace.

[Q] Sending HD2 for Warranty Service, but...

Hello!
I flashed my HD2 a few times to try to get a ROM that was flawless, but that unfortunately didn't happen. All of the ones I tried were really slow and now I'm thinking it might just be the phone I need to replace. Maybe I got a bad unit.
Anyway, when I went to go to send it in I realized that there were custom boot screens from the ROMs I installed, however I got rid of them all except for ONE SCREEN that appears when the phone boots to the screen that shows you all of the ROM information (The three lines that start with R in the first line, G in the second line and D in the third line) where it's the LEODragon ROM wallpaper from a prior ROM I had and I can't get it to disappear no matter what I do! HELP!
Thanks for your help in advance!
those numbers remain there ! and they were there since the beginning u got ur phone ! so dont worry ! just give it for service! everyone has those numbers from the day 1 !
you mean the second, non standard splash screen, before the animation, see the watermarking your leo link in my sig for more info
i did exactly the same, you need to make asecondary splash identical to the first, so it all looks like one splash.

Help! | HTC Titan works well 0n 1.08 ROM but not in latest!!!

Hi all.
I have my HTC titan, and its on this rom:
Eternity_HTC_Europe_1.08.401.02_Radio_16.23.02.09_ 2_16.24.00.23U_Signed_ETERNITY_RELEASE
1.08.402.02 wont update with Zune, it gives an error.
The only problems i have in this ROM is the update, the screen is not as resposive as lets say HTC mozart, (it doesnt stick to your finger as you move, the Mozart or HD7 does, when you move it moves)
also when scrolling or panning trhoug the hubs theres ghosts trails, is nothing i xperienced before.
The worse thing is when i flash a new ROM, things gets unsuable, with 1.09 to the latest 2.1 ROM the screen it doesnt react to your touch, i have to lock/unlock, also when screen is on and im no touching the screen freezes up after like 10 secs, so when watching/playing the screen freezes, only way is to lock/unlock.
things gets better when its plugged in, the touchscreen gets responsive, as it should be, but it still freezes after 10 secs.
I beg please can you help me please. any ideas of what it could be/?
why it works well in one ROM and not in the NEWER ones.

What was the stock ROM on your Titan? Is it the 1.08.401?
Before you started updating process? I would suggest hard reset first and then see if your initial ROM is stable. Instead of forcing swap of ROMs from the forums, see if you get OTA updates pushed/notified for first. If reversing back notifies you of available updates, try Zune afterwards. Also see if you've got latest Zune by trying to update Zune itself before grabbing the update.

Thank you for that, when i bought the phone from someone i know, the ROM was 1.09 , just before the 2.1 update.
Unfortuanally i have tried everything you mentioned... its weird thing cos when it comes to screen responsiveness, with ROM 2.1 it works great ONLY when plugged in (although screen still freezes)
Please have a look in this video youtu.be/QDLIl0-_Epo
Thnks for your reply

Grainy grey and white stripes

Ok. So my S3 has been working fine until this morning where rather than turning onto the normal screen, there were grey and white stripes that kinda look like noise from an old TV. Tried booting with power+volume up+home button and the same thing happened. Only thing I can get onto is the Download mode screen. I've tried everything from just taking out the battery to trying to root it but nothing seems to work. I'm not really experienced with rooting and downloading custom ROMs or anything so that might be the issue but I have some rather important stuff on there so if anyone can help please do so. Cheers
If the screen looks normal in download mode, it could be a corrupted os or graphics file.
Was the phone running a stock or custom ROM?

It was always running the ROM it came with, never really played around much with it till this happened. If its what you say it is, how would I go about fixing it? as stated before I've only just begun to dabble in this sort of stuff.
