I was just about to downgrade because I was having to Hard Reset at least twice a day. But I decided to disable the HTC Home Plug-In and see what happens.

Since disabling - I have not had any hang ups on the Boot Screen requiring a Hard Reset (2 days). And the device seems to be running even smoother - which I did not think was possible.

So it looks like the HTC Home Plug-In may be the problem with hanging and need for Hard Resets.

Sucks though, I really like that HTC Home. Need a good stable alternative.

Again - thank you to Helmi_c, luv2chill, colonel and everyone else who has worked to make our devices and this site amazing!

Here's a fix that's a whole lot easier than hard resetting.

Find a safe mode program.
This one works great!

It's Safe Mode 2.

You can set it to start in safe mode if it ran for less than 30 seconds or so.
Then go to today settings, uncheck home plug and restart. Then re enable the home thing.

Works great!
I decided to do that after my second or third hard reset. Now gone for over 2 weeks, and still going great.

It may not be HTC that is causing the problem, it may just be conflicting w/ another program...I was having similar problems w/ HTC & weatherpanel together, but since my last hard reset, I did not installed WP, & so far so good.
