Looks like our fearless leader got a response on the reboot issue from Verizon.

[Vance14]

Phil Nickinson complained about the reboot issue on Twitter and Verizon support replied as follows:

"We have partnered up with HTC to provide a solution to the device reset issue. We will keep you informed."

So, there you go. :0)

I guess it's a blessing in disguise that I still haven't received, and can't seem to force it, the update yet. That's great news that they're addressing it though.

Ha - so they can push another update that doesn't do much. I have given up hope on both VZW and HTC. They will just pump out more phones so we are the minority and they don't listen.

 

[Phil Nickinson]

Seriously, though, I *just* started getting reboots.

Do a master reset and re load the OTA before loading everything back on the phone it fixes the issue. Some phones just didn't load the OTA properly for some reason.

My phone was rebooting constantly the first day i got it. So i returned it DOA and have not had any reboots on my new phone.

Does "reboot" mean the same as a dropped call? There had been some dropped calls before the update, but after the update nearly every call gets dropped.

I did the update last Thursday. For the first few days, it didn't reboot any more than it did before, that is to say that it did seem to reboot itself every couple of days or so.

It wasn't until today that it turned into a flood of reboots. About once every hour. I know it did it a few times yesterday as well, but it's constant now.

reboot means reboot i.e. the phone turns off and turns back on going through the whole storm/thunder animation. I've only noticed the reboot in flakey signal areas which just so happens to only be my parents house so I just avoid it. lol

No, it completely powers off and restarts.

Not always... just sayin'.

Some people still experience power cycling even a factory data reset. If that does not work call VZW Tech Support at 800-922-0204 option 3. Tell them you already did a factory data reset and nothing changed so you can look into getting a replacement.

Well if its still rebooting after its had a master reset then the handset is defective and needs replacement. "Its REFURB Time!!"

 

[kaufmansm]

never had the reboot issue until today. I did the update last week whenit was available. rebooted about 4 times already today. This phone is pissing me off !!

Don't do it even it the update shows it's ugly head. I am getting numerous random reboots and my GPS now takes forever to lock. Before the update never had a reboot, and gps was sometimes slow but no where near what this update has done. I asked VZW tech if there was a way without rooting, to put back the old software and was told unfortunatley no.

 

[Chrisy]

I guess I'll try the factory reset.

 

[Mordecaidrake]

I've only had 2, if I start to get them I'm going to be very angry haha

 

[Makaveli1490]

[Shygar]

My device reboots a lot when I use Google Navigation and/or GPS apps.

 

[mercury694]

Mine reboots often with Pandora running, and sometimes with Google Maps. It never once rebooted before the OTA update, to my knowledge. Now it reboots quite a bit, sometimes 4 times a day. Oddly, the thunderbolt animation at boot up no longer includes sound. Not sure if that's by design or not.
