I restore back my stock ROM from LeeDroid 2.2.2.. and out of a sudden all the apps will close itself. Then later on the screen turns black color(the device is not off, still on)
I have to remove the battery then only i can on it back. But later this problem occurs again after like.. 5-10 minutes later while im "browsing" around. Once it occurs again i have to repeat the process again.(remove battery)
Any idea what happen??
Could you tell how you restored the stock rom so we have something to start with?
Hi Hawks556
As usual i restore back my stock ROM using CWM.
Tap ROM Manager >> Manage and Restore >> and i tap the back-up(i.e. the stock ROM)
Once it finish boot to home screen.. i just play with it around.. and trying to get GPS signal. then later out of a sudden all app close automatically.. then it became a black screen.
Hmm.. but now it seems to be behaving again. But still curious what cause such incident to occur. Did I brick my device? =(
If you'd bricked your device you wouldn't be using it.
But the problem is probably with CWM, there's always a possibility that it doesn't make a perfect backup or restore. I have also noticed that restoring a backup from a different rom can cause issues. If you wan't to return to stock at some point i recommend flashing a RUU.
Really. I did not know that. Lol. Cause all the while I restore/flash I never experience it before. And finally now i did it.
Anyway I flash back to LeeDroid and the problem of "turning into black screen" didnt happen. So i guess like what you mention.. issues restoring back from different ROM.
Thank you! =)

So I am having a really strange problem recently with my phone, was wondering if I should unroot and return it or if it is something I am doing wrong. Basically what it boils down to is if I power my phone off from the menu or pull the battery, etc. upon powering back up it just Hangs on the HTC Evo 4G white splash screen indefinitely. I have let it sit as long as 15 mins without booting before, having seen this before in the past I know not to panic now but I just reboot into Recovery and wipe my cache and dalvik cache every time I reboot and my phone reboots back into sense in no time at all.
I know this is not normal, is there something I can do to troubleshoot this problem or is this is a sign of hardware failure?

I've never seen that before. Interesting. What rom are you currently using? Do you have an unusually large amount of apps installed? The first thing I would do, is make a nandroid backup of your current setup, and then do a full wipe and flash a format all.zip, then reflash a different rom. Or just simply restore a nandroid of a known good setup, and see if the problem persists. If it stops, I'd say it was something specific to the rom/kernel/setup that you were running before. If it continues happening on a clean install of a different rom, then I'd probably unroot, restore to stock, and then see if the problem continues. If it does, take it to Sprint. If it stops, and everything is fine, re root it and start over. That's just what I would do, but I've never been presented with an issue such as that.
I appreciate the advice, I'm running Sprint Lovers right now been running it for a few months now, I don't have an unusual amount of apps installed but I did notice that the problem seemed to start occuring when I changed the Kernel. I will try your advice and see if that fixes the problem. I've been wanting an excuse to try the new Gingersense rom anyways.

If it started happening right after you swapped out the kernel, that could be the culprit. If you want to try the gingersense rom, I'll all for it, and will tell ya that they ran super incredibly smooth for a factory rom. However, if you don't feel like changing roms just yet, maybe try a different kernel. I'd be suspect of that, if the problem started shortly after changing to a different kernel. I say try out a gingersense rom, you shouldn't be disappointed (unless your phone still hangs at the splash screen upon reboot, lol).
So i have started encountering a problem in which about 3 minutes into a phone call my phone freezes and then ultimately turns off and only way to turn it back on is removing the battery and then power button.
I have had this problem on every rom starting on CM. After it happened on this rom i flashed juggs, beast, and da bomb (or whatever) and everyone it still happened. I wiped data, cache and delvik before every flash but this did not help.
I eventually just odin back to stock with the stock tar that is posted somewhere in this forum. This still has the problem. I found that it generally happens if i move from my ear and the screen turns on and then it wont turn back off and no menus are available (ak i cant get into dialer if i call bank or 800 number to input a number) and then it just completely freezes and turns off.
Any help with this would be great. I mean making phone calls is probably the most important part of a "phone" working. So i really need this to be fixed asap. thanks

Looks like it might be a kernal problem. Have you flashed back to the stock kernal? If not, I'd look there first
yeah i flashed stock kernal as well...problem still persist
uninstall Google+
no google + never have had it.
Have you tried flashing CM7 Alpha #2? I had that same problem with Alpha #1 release then flashed #2 fixed permissions. Then at first start up i rebooted with GPS on and voila! No more phone FC.
I started with Alpha #1 where the problem started flashed over #2 fixed permissions and same problem. thats when i started flashing the other roms to try to solve the problems but this hasnt helped. So i odin back to stock. flashed stock kernal and stock recovery. and i still have the problem.
What sucks is im just graduating college and im starting to receive calls from future employers and i cannot talk for more then 2 minutes before my phone decides to shut off.
So any other advice???
bump it up. Any help please...::
what it is doing now update: I click on a contact or type a number and press call and the screen turns black except the status bar. soft keys dont work, hard keys dont work. phone is a fail. people can still hear me and i can still hear them but the phone is unusable and i have to pull battery to get out of the black screen.
This was doing it on every rom and i have now put beastmod v2 4.0 still no luck :[
I just received my White GS2, finished the OTA update.
And yes, the dialer FC on me every single time once I push the hangup button.
Hi All, I come begging for help after exhausting all of my options and searches for similar issues.
I have a CDMA Galaxy Nexus Stock 4.0.2 but rooted (I installed CWM).
I woke up to my phone stuck in the boot loading screen; it just kept looping over and over. I shut off the phone restarted it and the phone was practically unuseable, it ran very very slow. Now I haven't done anything recently or installed any apps. The only app I installed was a modified MMS app (one of the Inverted Black ones), but that was 2 weeks ago and everything was running fine since then. (However since I'm not on a deodexed Rom, I knew there could be issues).
Well I of course switched back to the stock MMS app that I had manually backed up and that did not help. Now my phone would load, it would get to my homescreen, but it would then say something along, "service is not working, wait, close, or ok?" I'd hit wait and within 2 minutes my phone would automatically reboot and then go into a a sort-of bootloop (it would just show the boot.img and loop).
I then tried to restore two Nandroid back-ups (which were basically bone stock and made months ago) and both worked, except it would say secure.img not found or something like that. I was still able to boot up and use these back ups, but then within 5 minutes I would get the same error and then the phone would reboot.
After retrying them I decided to to just go bone stock and wipe and do a factory reset. This worked and everything seemed fine until I went to turn on wi-fi.
I would wait for wi-fi to turn on and eventually it would just quit and then reboot the phone. I did this 3 times in a row to confirm that it was indeed wi-fi causing these rebooting issues.
Now here's the thing, right now my phone is working as I have purposely tried not to touch the wi-fi (I need to use my phone) . Data, voice, mms/sms all work. But I literally have no idea why wi-fi would be causing my OS to go crazy?
My last resort is to flash the stock toro.img but I was hoping you guys could help me before I get to that point.
As of right now even though I did a data wipe/factory restore my phone is still rooted (rooted apps all work) and my bootloader is still unlocked. (I renamed the secure.bootloader file as per the instructions when using fastboot to load CWM).
Please help me troubleshoot this, Thanks guys.
I don't know if you have tried but maybe try flashing a rom after a data wipe

I'm thinking about doing this as well since I will probably have to flash back to stock. I just want to make sure I can get back to stock since I am still covered by warranty and insurance (assuming they do not check to see if my phone has an unlocked bootloader).

Well you can always relock the bootloader. I doubt you will have to go back to stock though
OK last week a did a restore to [ROM ] Pure Stock Rooted and debloated ROM via cwm. After doing it I ran into a bunch of force closes and restored back to my stock ROM I had rooted. Since going back to my rooted stock ROM when I receive a call or place a call. My phone screen shuts off and I can't get the screen to turn back on during the call. If the person on the other end of hangs up. I can then get the screen to turn on and things seem normal. I've tried formatting, wiping cache, and delvic. I've tried other ROM's like CM 4.3 and they all behave the same way. Does anyone know what other things I can try because I'm starting to think I got a F'ed up sensor issue that may be more hardware than software issue.
Hi guys,
My f400l has been experiencing issues for a while now. One morning, I woke up to find an unresponsive device. Took out battery and turned it on again to find that the device had partially reset itself (ie. going back to stock launcher and layout, missing apps). Device was still rooted so I tried to restore apps and settings via titanium backup. However, phone kept freezing throughout restore process.
Next, I decided to flash back to stock. This is when i noticed that wifi would remain at 'wifi turning on' but never actually turn on. Additionally, bluetooth could not be turned on. I then upgraded to lollipop via normal firmware update from lg software on my pc. Phone then would freeze after every 2 mins.
After trialing many rooms, I am now on cloudyg3 2.1 but wifi/bluetooth are still not working and phone still freezes occasionally (usually at the beginning of the day).
Really at a loss here, can anyone suggest what seems to be happening and what I can do about it?
Thanks everyone!

sounds simple enough.

If flashing the modem, wouldn't I need to first revert back to stock kitkat?

Argh! So i tried flashing and upon reboot, phone came up with a security error. Currently reverting back to stock via download mode. I couldn't get back into recovery. Did I do something wrong? Thanks for the help so far tho!
EDIT: ahhh just realized i flashed a kitkat kernel, woops! Will see how things pan out for now
So i went back to stock and flashed a kernel but that didn't seem to help. Can't seem to find a zip file for kitkat baseband so I'm a bit lost as to how to flash a modem.
One thing I also noticed is that fact that i cannot access recovery via hardware buttons? I use power and volume down but the combo doesn't work. It just boots normally?
