I know what you are thinking, another thread for SOD. Well I have been tested my method for about a month now and thought maybe you guys would want to try it out if you are still having the problem. If you don't know what SOD is, its simply stands for
Standby of Death. Which means that your device goes into sleep mode and either doesn't "wake-up" or takes multiple presses or a long time for it to "wake-up" and end up taking battery out and reseting your phone. There has been people discussing that the problem maybe caused by a bad radio flash or LD (Lock Device), and/or aftermarket chargers not HTC branded. I haven't personally flashed any new/different radios, except for the new sprint upgrade. Or tried any aftermarket wall chargers or cables but have used LD before. Now I use smartlock which in my opinion is better, not trying to put down LD but its just not for me. Ok now for my method:
Instructions:
Download and extract the stock .nbh file of your carrier, in this case Sprint.
New Sprint 6.5 update
- I use winrar. Open winrar go to where you downloaded file (should be an .exe file) and open it using winrar. you will see ruu_signed.nbh extract it to let say your desktop. Rename it to rhodimg.nbh and place it on the root of your storage card (meaning not in any folder).
Next Making sure you have backed up your contacts and any other important info you may need perform a clear storage from your system settings. Once it boots back to Manila, perform a flash from your
storage card ( have the rhodimg.nbh on the root of sd card). With a sprint touch pro 2 just reset device holding volume down or turn off device and while holding volume down turn on phone. Should boot into bootloader and will ask you to flash new rom/radio/splashscreen...etc Taking into consideration that you are hardspl unlocked and been flashing roms for a while.
Once its flashed, restart phone. Once you get into Manila, perform a clear storage . Let it boot back into manila. After this is done its time to do a task29. Which you can find info (Thanks to Morty)
here.
I use the task29 that ziggy posted
here. Its fool proof don't need to add radio or anything else. It flashes a boot screen instead. Wipes everything clean, run just like you would flashing a rom through RUU, only through a computer, must be connected to active sync, or WMDC for vista and windows 7.
Now you will need a ROM, I recommend Mighty's ROM they are awesome they speak for themselves.

Pick one there are three versions:
Official (Stock feel to it)
Special Edition (Same as Official but with some bling)
Full Force (Full Force 6.5.x start menu on bottom)
Check his thread out for more info
here.
I recommend Special Edition . Special Edition and Full Force are under Touch Pro 2 Projects.
Flash you Mighty ROM of choice from you SD card. Restart.Let it boot to Manila. Once loaded,do clear storage one more time and your done. I do this every time i flash a new rom...my new flash dance you could say. Might be extra steps for some but well worth it to me. Hope this helps
I use HD Mini lock and Smartlock that I posted
here.
Thanks to Morty, Ziggy, MightyMike, if i left anyone out let me know. Thanks
