AnonD-213808, 10 Dec 2013HI, After a year of total usage, i say that i had one of... moreHi there,

I did just a basic rooting(SuperUser and Memory Swap).The OS is still stock.So any issue that pop up in the Non-rooted will still pop in mine.

Detailed explanation about rooting can be found in the Desire SV xda-developers page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2323678

Again warning:it will void your warranty

And i dont think rooting will solve the restarting problem.May be a Custom ROM can.

Anyway its all upto you.

And about the restarting problem, i think its some-kinda OS conflict on running dual-sim.

Thanks.

    The worst phone ever!I have been using this phone from Jan 2013 and it has crashed upto several times and frequently shuts down and restarts. At first I thought it was some of the apps that caused it so I decided not to download any apps after the last factory reset. But still its crashed. Another lacking part is front camera and internal phone memory is very low..cos of which we can not add HD games or more applications and cant move apps to sd card , its a big minus . Eventually it developed a charging problem where it does not charge at all. whenever I connect the charger the charging light keeps blinking endlessly. So now the phone does not power on at all. There is only one plus point and that its Beat Sound which is superb, but to spend that much bucks to get only one plus and lots of minus is not a good choice. I would never go for HTC again and would not recommend anyone else.

          All people having Frequent Reboot Issue,are you guys using Dual Sim or Single or did the problem pop up after adding the second sim?

          Coz I have been using it for the last 7 months(in single sim) and not a single issue,but planning to put in another sim.

          Since I am rooted and so no warranty,I do not want to take chances.

          Replies are highly grateful.Thank you

              Rebooting problem after 5 months. Hard reset not solving the problem. Disabled SIM2 and it was OK. Now I have put cardboard paper under battery to tighten it. Re-Enabled SIM 2, no problem so far.

                    The worst experience with a phone ever!I have used this phone for about five months and it has crashed up to three times aside the frequent shut downs and restarts. At first I thought it was some of the apps that caused it so I decided not to download any apps after the last factory reset. But still it crashed the forth time. eventually it developed a charging problem where it does not charge at all. whenever I connect the charger the charging light keeps blinkig endlessly. So now the phone does not power on at all. Does anybody experience similar problem/s with this phone and how did you resolve it. I need just to power the phone and get my stuff out then am done with HTC. Pls I NEED HELP!!!

                                      Hi guys , i am using it for an year since it got launched last november. Design is so attractive,nice display, audio is good. so on and on.
                                      the lacking part is front camera and internal and phone memory is very low..cos of which we count add HD games or more applications and cant move apps to sd card , its a big minus . so if u use for bussiness purpose its awesome. if u r a game freak dont go for this as memory matters
