Vibrating then crash?

Has anyone else experienced this on DK28? It's happening to me quite often.
Is it an unavoidable bug?

are you running stock?

Mhmm, no custom Rom as of yet. Is it a stock only issue?

What are you doing when the phone does that?
Sent from my Evo Killer!!!

Running Facebook, or running the Android market or tweetcaster or the XDA app, but it's stopped so far oddly enough.
EDIT: It still persists to happen. I still haven't figured out why. It's always when the keyboard is out typing. Swype, the Samsung Keypad, as well the GB keyboard.

I get that. Running ext 4 viper rom.
Vibrates twice then reboots.
Then when it turns on, I've went from 66 percent to 13 percent battery life for example.

Same as well. Either the app crashes or my phone will reboot. I reinstalled the leak again and it persists to be that way still. Hopefully the official comes out soon, but for now I'm fine with this.

Does it reboot or shut down?
It sort of sounds like a low battery shutdown. Maybe there is a problem with your battery. I'm just guessing here.

I have seen that happen from a couple of scenarios...
Not doing a wipe after going to DK28
Switching between roms and not wiping
Or flashing a rom or theme that you failed to verify the integrity of the zip before flashing.

I had this problem for a while and it seemed to get worse over time. I backed-up everything and wiped the cache and factory reset in CWM. Seems to have fixed the problem so far.

I'm going to take your approach to it and try that, hopefully it goes well for me, if not I'll just deal with it lol. Either way I have a functional phone. That vibrates and closes everything lol.

I will report that last night this happened on my walk home.
Phone kept rebooting over and over.
Phone was in my pocket and my hands were full so I could do nothing. Absolutely nothin would bring my device to life expect reinstall the rom. Even when I pushed my data backup I made while it boot looped on me, it would do the same.
So I had to start fresh. I have to say, previously I may have had a bad installation.
I went from 100 to 1 as to calibrate the battery once, no reboot yay. Also before, playing music while getting a text only muted the sound of incoming text for a plit second to where yu wouldn't know if not paying attention, sounds like a skip.
Now it decends volume while sounding the alert, and return music volume as normal.

[Q] SMS problem, message stuck on "sending"

About once a day while texting, a message gets stuck "sending" and I have to reboot the phone for the message to send. I am running stock DK28 with the ACS-dk28-signed ROM. I have seen some people having this issue on Quantum ROM too. Is anyone else having this issue and on which ROMs. Has anyone had it and found a fix? I have done the wipes and resinstalls so thinking it is some cache clearing problem. Will a different Mms.apk fix it?
Thanks.

I had that poblem with viperrom. since going with Nebula, I have not had that issue, however, I hav onl had it on my phone for four days
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

I had Nebula for a minute this weekend but had trouble getting Sprint Nav back on and needed it Saturday morning for a job so had a massive wipefest and odin'd back to DK28 and put ACS back on so hope that cleared it up. Will see today. Still looking for a ROM with a Sprint and Samsung package included to save the hunt for all the apps.

It's a DK28 feature. I never found any pattern to what caused it, at worst I got it every 20-30 texts (or every 3-4 days for me).
Tried multiple roms and stock DK28, all do it eventually, it is just a matter of time. For some reason early Bonsai roms *seemed* to go longer before the problem appeared (weeks).
DI18 and back don't have the issue, so it is likely the modem... never tried DG27 long enough to see if it was affected.

J had that too and use update prl e everywhere I go it seems when change location its getting stock. Now it went away for now fingers cross.

What ROM are you running? Anything special on your install? Wipes? Odin?
Update: After a major wipefest, 3X each and 1X Dalvik, Odin to DK28, then wipefest, then flash ACS-signed-DK28 I am going on day 3 without this issue....keeping fingers crossed. (oops hard to txt that way)

I had this issue even on my stock phone. It seems to happen less since I flashed to sfr, but it is still annoying as hell and extremely hard on my battery life.
Anyone know of any solutions?

I found out that clearing level 2 RaM was causing it. Stopped using Program Monitor widget.
Do you BONSAI?

[Q] Phone shuts down--Need help

I have been having an issue with my phone shutting down on me. When I put it in sleep mode, and after a while try to turn it back on, the phone is completely shut off. The only way to turn it back on is to pull the battery. When it is plugged in, it never does this-even in sleep mode. This is also not ROM specific, it has happened on several different ROMS. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Thank you for your help!!!!!!!

If you're using setcpu, raise the screen off clock speed.
Texted while driving

Thanks for the suggestion. I am using set CPU. I looked and can't find that setting. How do I get there?

I am getting the same thing on different ROMS. Specifically the latest Midnight and Syndicate ROMS, which are the only two ROMS I have ever ran. It just started this out of no where as well. I was running Midnight for over a week with no issues, and then yesterday it started shutting off multiple times. So, I wiped everything three times, and flashed Syndicate last night, and then this morning it started doing it again. I just Odin'd back to stock, and am going to see how it runs before rooting and flashing again. I would love to hear what could be causing this issue.

I've been having the same issue. I've had it with the latest Syndicate ROMs, Bonsai ROMs, and Midnight ROMs. It's been very frustrating as I've only been able to reproduce the issue after using the phone for a day our two. It only happens when on battery power and when the screen has been off for several minutes. I've always ensured Set CPU is set to minimum 200 mhz and I've also had the issue without set cpu installed, so I don't think that's it.
I've been doing lots of testing to determine what might be causing it and so far I've eliminated the kernel and ext4 as the culprit. I think it must be some relatively new tweak that all the custom ROMs are implementing. My latest theory is perhaps the NCIQ tweaks.

Thanks so much for the input. Hopefully someone can figure this thing out

I experienced the same issue, and reported it in the Bonsai 4.0.1 thread, as that's the ROM I'm using. I would defnitely like to know about the solution, as it is quite frustrating when this occurs and it does not allow using the phone without the battery power cycle.

Data corruption
I, have found it is best to fully wipe everything.
I installed srf and got freezes and random reboots.
Then i installed cm7, and re-flashed srf from that not a problem since.
This issue has been discussed before,and i suggested this remedy to fix the ailments.
It is tedious but it works just fine.
Not sure what the problem is, but you probably came from an EC05 stock rooted ROM.
I think that is the underlying cause of these problems.
fully wipe your phone 3 times wipe everything flash cm7 ,you dont need to flash the gapps then flash srf or bonsai and watch them run.

ACS Frozen 1.2 instability.

Hello xda community. I have a pretty large issue that affects my Epic. I recently had my Epic broken by blunt impact to the screen. So I sent it in and they sent a replacement in less than a day. I had Frozen 1.2 on my old Epic, and I had zero issues. But since I got my replacement, its been nothing but a hassle.
It doesnt get nearly as good battery life, it randomly reboots to the ACS logo, then endlessly cycles until the battery is pulled. Then when its turned back on, everything force closes, rendering the phone un-usable. The only remedy is to go to Clockwork and repair permissions. This will fix it for half the day.
Any advice?

The force closing is probably due to not having Journaling on.
I believe in the SRF 1.2 OP, there is a JournalingOn.zip, flash that (no wipes) and that should stop the force closing.
If it still is unstable for you, I recommend just reflashing the ROM.
Hope this helps.

Follow Acer's directions. If for some reason you still have an issue, then I'd recommend redownloading the rom.
You may also want to try a different kernel.

I had friend who had the same issue. He went back to SFR1.1.1
then installed ACS updater and flashed SFR 1.2. That fixed his problem. I did it that way too and have not had any issues. Calibrate battery after flashing.

That sort of worked. It made it take longer for things to get hosed over again.So I tried resetting it to stock then flashing EG22, but each time I flash EG22, it doesnt do anything.The version stays at 2.2.1. What am I doing wrong?

What did you flash that is EG22?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App

In order to better assist you, can you give us a step-by-step listing of everything you are doing? The files you are using with version #'s and your computer OS (with bit version).

I would recommend a full wipe of the phone, to remove any corrupted data
then do a clean install of SRF 1.2
then install the zip to turn on journaling
note: DO NOT use the reboot option until AFTER you have turned on journaling

What I did last night was returned it to factory stock EC05.
Im working with Windows 7 Home x64 on a Mac Pro, because for some reason neither Epic I've ever had will work with my custom built computer.
I flashed the EG22modem.bin with Odin 1.61. That didnt seem to do anything.
So later today, I am going to try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1184134

The modem only changes the baseband..
regardless, imo it sounds like the problems you are having are due to restoring backups.. is that the case?

I installed this

Calkulin's E4GT 2 v1.6 bug?

I would have made a reply post in the dev thread but my post count is to low, sorry about that.
Also i read through a lot of the recent pages that pertained to version 1.6 with no answer.
After a few days of using this ROM i have noticed an odd bug. Throughout the day, my phone would be on in my pocket with out me knowing. The screen would be on and also wife, Bluetooth, gps, 4g... Certain apps would also turn on. I wear thick work pants so i don't believe my skin would have triggered this. The battery would obviously be drained with only being off the charger for 4 hours...
yesterday night, i noticed my pocket was red hot. So i went to grab my phone out to see what was going on. I have never felt a phone that was this hot before. I immediately took the battery out and let the phone cool off for a good half hour.
Just curious if anyone has noticed this before and if there is a fix? To be safe i am going back to my old ROM.

That is definitely not normal. Try a clean wipe and reinstall. If still getting this then check a program like badass battery monitor to see what is doing it. Again this is not normal at all and you are one of the only ones potentially having the issue so i don't think it is the rom in this case. Good luck and hope it corrects.

Definitely not the ROM. I've been using it without issues since it came out and by the number of people that use the ROM, it would've come up if it were isolated to the ROM itself. As the previous poster indicated possibly something running in the background. Did you in do a clean install from GB or Calk 1.5 (whichever you were on)?
My phone did something similar running on of the leaked ICS (non-custom) ROM's a few weeks ago and I remember just going into recovery, then wiping cache and dalvik cache. No issues since then. When in doubt start with a "clean" install and if restoring from TB, then restore apps only and no system data. This seems to play nice for me.
Good Luck.

I used calk's format all coming from GB. All of his ROM's have run great for me.
The best ROM i have used to date was his el29 v3.0.
I figured this was very specific, i will check out that battery monitor. Thanks for the input!
