Hi there,
I'm having a problem with my Desire HD, its been rebooting itself occasionally, maybe once every 2-3 hours. I've got the latest recovery and latest radio, I've tried other ROMs and I'm still having this problem, other than that, it's great, so smooth and fast!
Can anyone help please?!
I'm very new to all this so please be patient.
Radio version is -26.04.02.17_M2
Cyanogen Version is: CyanogenMod-7-03022011-NIGHTLY-DesireHD
If you need any more information please let me know.
Thank you in advance
Try the cm7 release candidate 1 as that is more stable and not as buggy.....same thing really as nightly very minor changes aesthetically.
Right okay i will do. I had the exact same problem on the RC1 aswell .. But I'll try that and let you know..
Thanks for your help

Before flashing whatever you settle on, be sure to wipe /cache /dalvik-cache and /system from within clockwork recovery as it may be left over chaff in the directories causing the instability, BEWARE though this will wipe all your user data.
Yeah I will do,
Thanks Pal
It might be a hardware problem. I know there has been issues with the sim card slot. Make sure your sim is in securely and even secure it with a small piece of card or paper jammed in with it. This solved the problem on my friend's dhd. Hope this works for you. Please post your results.

Hi there everyone, just a quick update.
None of the other roms iv tried seem to be having an effect, and as for the memory card and sim issue.. Im doubtful as it never had any issues before i rooted it and put cyanogen on it.. my next step is to try a different radio.
Does anyone have any other suggestions??
Thanks.
Also i forgot to mention, it only appears to reboot when i recieve a message, but, only when there's a message and i havent opened it or unlocked it, when its been there for 5-10 minutes, then i'll press the unlock buttin and that's when it'll reboot. But it only ever does this when i press the unlock button..
Don't know if that's significant or not..
yeah, ive also noticed that it reboots ever as often..
i didnt take it on until i read this post..
also what ive noticed is that when it reboots, my keyboard setting goes back to default i.e. from swiftkey (which i have to set after it boots) to the android keyboard..
did anyone else come across this?. any suggestions?
Hey I have a desire Z and my logcat says that the Wifi driver isnt loading. I want to replace it with one that works so my wifi actually turns on.
If you have a bcm4329.ko for the desire z could you please let me know?
Thanks
Isn't that file subject to the kernel you're running? Or are you stock and just looking for the stock bcm file also?

Yeah I think it is normally part of a kernel but I cant seem to get this damn wifi to work no matter what I do, so I was thinking if anyone had one of the files kicking around I would just ADB overwrite the old one and see if it works.
Try flashing one of the kernels in my signature -- they both include a corresponding WiFi driver.

you can always jus download a rom and go to the folder where its located and take it out and push it in your phone instead of waiting for some one

I tried that too and it didn't do anything. Im really pulling at straws. Is there a program to test to make sure the hardware is actually good?
Im sure you done this already but some one is bound to ask, so ask now.
have you tried to wipe
and reflash the rom your using and try it again,

Yep, tried that twice. I even went back to stock between the reload.
One time I flashed it using the PC10IMG method and the other I used Clockwork (rom manager).
I really have no idea where to go at this point. I think I've exhausted all my ideas. Ive tried reflashing roms, kernels, and radios.
Was hoping someone had some diagnostic software that would test the hardware of the phone or something so at least then I would know if my actual hardware for the WiFi and Bluetooth was shot or not.
Thanks anyways.
Wow, I forgot about this thread over the weekend
Anyway, have you tried changing the permissions for the file? You can use 'fix permissions' in ROM Manager or clockwork or use Root Explorer to change the permissions. Of course if you're a terminal kind of guy you can chmod it.
Sometimes the permissions don't set correctly or, on some systems running linux, the permissions get changed for some reason. Maybe that's what's going no here, sounds like it anyway. Btw, make sure to reboot after changing the permissions because it won't work until you do.
has anyone fixed this issue where wifi stops working?
wifi not turning ON
Hello Everyone,
During the process of getting IP address from WiFi network, I received a "Error Massage" on my Alcatel OT-990. After this massage, WiFi started behaving abnormally. Sometimes it turned ON another time it did not. Now after a few weeks later, WiFi is not turning ON at all.
I have Tried following Solutions but nothing worked:
1. Did factory reset, erased system, cache etc and Flashed different ROMs (JB ot 990, ICS QME, QLTsar, 2.3.4, Telenor One touch 4.0.04) using Recovery many a times(From different Sources).>>Problem not solved
2. Updated my phone using alcatel update manager to 2.3.4>>> Problem not solved
3. Tried by changing permissions of BCM4329.KO, wpa_supplicant.confg etc every file related to wifi/wlan>>Problem not solved
4. Used WiFix Manager>>>Problem not solved.
Bluetooth and FM radio working all right.
If anybody knows about its solution ..please help me out.
First of all, I would like to thank everyone involved in making our Defy's so awesome.
Thanks to you all, as after getting all the info and help, I was successfully able to
upgraded to CM7 1.0-RC1.5-jordan-signed, and after few initial hiccups everything is working fine. Except the battery drainage issue. And I have been loving the new look and feel of my Defy ever since.
Today Morning. I've started getting a new problem. Whenever I want to call someone and I go to contacts, it force closes itself with following error:-
"The Process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I have restarted the phone and no respite from the problem.
Help please....
Did you change something or install a new app immediately before this started to happen ? Did you restart your phone while it was still connected to the PC or so? Some other people solved this problem by doing a factory reset. But you need to find the specific reason or cause in your case and correct that.

Well, the last thing I did last night was that I installed two ADW themes. and also downloaded few wallpapers.
Do you think, the themes could have created this problem?

As there is, according to my information, no standard cause for this problem, everything could be the reason. Other people reported this error on different devices too and the reasons were diverse.
Some have had the problem after installing a new app, others due to rebooting the phone while it was still connected to the pc. Others made a factory reset and then it worked again and the true reason was never found.
It won't kill you to try and disable/uninstall the new themes or wallpapers (if they are live wallpapers).
Maybe there is another specific well known reason for that out there. In this case I simply don't know one.
If you're lucky, others had the same problem and have identified a more precise cause. Then they will answer hopefully.
I would try to undo the last things you changed before and find out the true cause.

Will uninstall the new themes.
And as you said, Factory reset. If I do that, what exactly will happen.
Asking this because as mentioned before, I'm no longer on the version which came with phone and I am on CM7. so Factory reset will take me to which phase?

well the link tells me what will happen on a stock rom. My question is. If I factory reset on CM7, will it take me to the original state or the default settings of CM7.
Flash cm7 again! maybe it helps.

Recenty started getting few more issues.
1.> Phonebook crashing because of FC's. I'm hardly able to use my phonebook now
2.> Last night, messages stopped working. Again FC's.
3.> Today morning the native camera application stopped working.
And I have done following to overcome all the issues with no luck:-
wipes all cache including devik.
Did factory reset
reflashed with CM7 jordon 1.5
All failed to give me any respite from the errors.
Now I have downloaded cm7-110923-0710-Nightly.
Do let me know if this is an OK one. I've faced way too many errors and afraid of showing it off to anyone now as It might crash anytime.
Much to my disappointment, even flashing to newer nightly, I'm still getting the same errors.
Can someone provide me the 3.4.3-36-1.7 SBF? the one in the link provided earlier is not working.
Or any other solution.
The errors are way too much to ignore, and if this continues then I have to go back to Froyo. But I seriously love the new feel of the phone. All thanks to CM7.

After installing ICS my P935 now resets randomly, seems to do it most when trying to install apps from the Google Play store and when I make settings changes. I don't have an SD card installed if that makes any difference.
Did you do a factory data reset when you updated?
Sent from my LG-P935 using xda app-developers app
It's been doin the same for me (Telus P935), I also did a factory reset and it was still doing it so I took out the SDcard, swapped SDcards, etc. But it hasn't done it today yet.
Well I went to Telus and sent it in to see if they can repair or replace it, it rebooted again today and it then got very hot but when I pulled the battery and booted it up again, the graphics was all messed up and the colors were off, perhaps some damage to the GPU. I had no problems with this before updating to ICS... I wonder because I looked around the net and a few people are having problems too.
funny I have no problems. upgrade was flawless.

I have also had problems with my nitro rebooting a few times a day ever since installing ICS.
I think reboots and other things are not problem of installing Android 4
I've also had this problem, except with my bell optimus Lte, and its quite annoying as it randomly happens while I'm doing something with my phone.

I have the same problem, try a hard reset, but the problem remains ...
Someone solved it? or how to do a factory reset to uninstall ICS?
There's no solution for this problem. And if you will flash another rom or another official software, no matter GB or ICS , the problem will stay. I don't know what happens, but updating creates some error, possibly in hardware.
And you know, I am really disappointed with that. I had tried every rom, and all kdz software, downclocking, disabling tons of functions & options. Nothing prevents reboots. It freezes for a while and then reboots. In some roms it can shuts off instead of reboot. And that's it. The last chance I think is jtagg reflashing.

I had same random reboot & sleep death problem after performing unbrick.
I tried several times of unbricking to correct this and installed GB & ICS, almost every CWM Rom without sucess.
Finally, I tried v18f.exe version when my phone was in download mode.
After that, I havn't had any single reboot or sleep death. I'm currently using v20c without CWM.
What I did was:
1.Install V18f leaked version in download mode.
2.Root with TPSparkyRoot_ICS
3. you can stay with v18f if you like, but I prefer to go v20c using "dd if sdcard boot.img .....method.." with v20c img file.
In my opinion, unbricking with korean rom may have some compatibility problems in some area besides boot, recovery, firmware, band, system partitions at least in my phone.
Becasue before I perform unbrick with korean rom, I never had reboot or death problem with Ho-no bell rom, kernelpan1c, cm9 and p936 rom.
Anyway, after install v18f.exe, my phone is perfectly okay.
I hope this help some of you suffering from random reboot.

Went to CM 9.1 stable. Still rebooted.

You are right dude. I also had frequent reboot issue with ICS Roms. Then, I put the phone in download mode and installed v18f(exe). Amazingly, the phone is super stable now. Thanks a lot for sharing the info. Just a question : can I now flash CM10 over this? will it cause reboot?

Sorry, my apologies, I forgot how uninformative the stock display is.
You can get at what I was looking for by installing "System Panel Lite" (free) and looking under "Dev Info," and then the entry under "Fingerprint."
However, skip that and perhaps just go ahead and re-flash the baseband. I don't think it can hurt. Druminst has posted zips that install the basebands with ClockWorkMod at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30451467&postcount=1 You have to go to his "more extensive list" to get to the baseband_flashable_P930_ATT_V18f.zip file.

A OK, thanks.
Well, I will try.
Hi guys,
I am using a Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc and am having a lot of trouble with the device constantly crashing and rebooting.
when this first happened these are the steps i took.
i completely wiped the device (factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache partition, format system)
i then flashed Baseband 77 using flashtool
i then flashed fxp149 using flashtool
i then flashed Baseband 77 libs using CWM
i then flashed AOKP JB M1-R1 ROM using CWM
i then flashed gapps using CWM
i the reloaded all apps from the market and not applied any backups and yet it still rebooted all the time.
Since then i have tried using
Fusion 3.8
Fusion 3.9
Fusion 4.0
FXP 148
FXP 150
Stock Kernel inside ROM .zip file.
I have also tried putting it back to Baseband 72 but it made no difference.
None of these make any difference to my issue and yet before i had the issue, I had used all of these kernels except FXP 150 and they all worked fine with no issues at all.
I then decided to go all the way back to stock firmware as it is out of the box.
so I used flashtool and flashed LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716).ftf
I reloaded my applications and monitored the device only to see that by the next day, the problem had returned.
I am now at the end of my tether and do not know what else i can possibly do to figure out the issue.
the device has not been dropped or damaged in any way so there is no reason for a hardware fault.
i desperately NEED this device to be working as i use it on a daily basis for my business and cannot live with out it.
IF THERE IS ANYONE OUT THERE THAT COULD PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP I WOULD BE FOREVER IN YOUR DEBT!!!!!!!
i also have a logcat that i was running in the background when one of the reboots happened
not sure if that can tell anyone anything but i have it if it does
First flash stock kernel (587), after flash the rom compatible with kernel. Remember full wipe before
have you tried not to restore your apps? Maybe one of them causes the problem. I'd try to stick with the clean (stock) rom an check if it still reboots. If it does I guess your device is ready for ebay
Could be a loose battery, try a bit of paper between the battery and the cover and see if that helps.

i have come across something quite interesting.
i had someone look at the logcat i had running live when i had a reboot and it showed that the last thing to function before the reboot was wifi scanning. they suggested i try turning off wifi and running the live logcat again to see if any reboots occured.
it has now been just over 48 hours and i have not had a reboot at all. i know is because my terminal session is still running the live logcat.
is there anyone that could suggest why this may be happening?
i mean, i know its wifi that is causing the problem, but would that be a hardware issue that could be fixed under warranty? or something else?
any suggestions are appreciated as always

i don't think i can help, i just wanna say that i had (have) the same problem. I said had/have because probably I still have the issue, but i don't notice it that often. Before, I had my phone set to ask for pin code, but now I have removed it to avoid being unreachable if a restart occurs. I have raised the issue long time ago, but really didn't find any answer. Other ppl had same problem with their phone (look at the thread i started about this issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765537)
I also have HTC desire in daily use with CM7.2, that also reboots quite often. So I don't think the phones are broken. More likely it's kenel or rom or app issue, or some combination of those.
If you can tell me how to monitor things, I can do it on both phones, maybe we will figure out what's going on.

if you open a terminal session and type:
su
cd sdcard
logcat >> logcat.txt
it will create a .txt file and put the live logcat info into it.
you need to leave the terminal running in the background to make sure it continues to update
then when you see a reboot just get the logcat.txt file from the sd card and open it in wordpad or something. (notepad doesnt display properly)
have a look at the last thing that happened before the reboot and see what it tells you
mine had info about wifi scanning and showed that it had seen ssids
next step was to turn wifi off to see if the problem stayed or resolved.
good luck!! id love to hear how it goes
