I have had this too with OR without a custom rom (might mike), with OR without mods (running stock again right now)

I have narrowed it down to a combination of active sync and emails or text messaging. Seems like the HTC ui barfs when loading your emails then cannot start up.

I don't text alot, so I think it is emails. I cannot find any HTC cache files to delete that will fix this.

The only "fix" I have is a good and configured "Sprite Backup" that I keep on the memory card (executable exe file). Hard reset (Talk+End+power keys) then reinstall (5-10min tops). The server will sync my contacts and calendar, then rinse and repeat after about a month.

Really sucks because I like the new UI and some features, but phone is really useless when this happens.

Any insight from someone else would be appreciated.
