When i use my Desire to access the internet using my mobile network the phone restarts at random points doesnt happen when i connect via wifi tho.
Another strange accurance was i was using my wifi when my phone was charging and it randomly shut off and vibrated numerous times and when i started it back up it got to the htc quietly brilliant screen and then back to the htc screen in a loop until i unplugged the charger and started it up, which then got me to the menu screen
Anyone else experienced any of these????

Why people love posting with no info??????.....................
Im no expert but if i had a problem and needed help, i would at the very least provide a few details about my device,
IE: has it been rooted, have you messed about in adb shell without knowing what your doing, What network your on, if you have anything like apps2sd on it, basically BASIC details that will help the people that know deal with your problem a LOT quicker and more accuratly.
IDK could just be me that would want to know these kinda things.

was this problem happening when you first got the phone?
go to settings -> wireless and networks -> mobile networks -> access point names
click on menu and press 'reset default'
if not then you must have installed/changed something in the system which is causing this. a factory reset would fix this if this is the case.
THIS IS KEEPING IN MIND IT WORKED WHEN YOU FIRST GOT IT
if it never worked then return it and get a new one.
worked fine when i first got it had it a month this just started a week or so ago

I had the same problem with mine on Orange, at the time it was stock, after 2 weeks it would randomly reboot when i disconnected from my BT car kit or when i hung up the phone, i sent it back and got a new one. I put the generic ROM onto the new one and it was fine for a week then it rebooted after a phone call and then during a phone call when i rang them back. Im now running a rooted ROM and so far its all ok,
Only installed programs I have in common is beebplayer, I will say one bit of advice though unistall task killer u dont need it, there is a post somewhere explaining why but u dont need it and the phone doesn't like it.
Mine just rebooted after a call for the first time.
I got a orange handset, should I return it?
Its been working fine since I got it 2 weeks ago.
mine too
i have the same problem with my desire...
and the strange thing is...AFTER 2 WEEK like all of you !!
every time i close a call my phone reboots itself...
i have not rooted the phone and i have no apps installed because 'ive just made a hard reset.
i'm waiting for briging the phone to the repairing center because i'm not so convinced that is a hardware issue.
now that you all have the same problem i begin to think that maybe after some use the phone corrupt some memory position that also an hard reset doesn't clean completely.
the strange thing is that in my case only the call close cause the problem, all the other function of the phone run smooth....
keep me informed of some news..

have you tried some solutions posted here such as the apn reset to default?
a hard reset will not fix this, this apn data is backed up by the system and then restored after a hard reset thus copying and pasting the faulty apn
again it's just a theory but worth a try.
now..
just trying now...
doesn't work
..unfortunatly the trick doesn't work...
first i've done a reset to default of the APN. reboot. same problem
then i've deleted all the apn entries...just to try...nothing changes...
but i'don't think the problem is apn related because it's not an internet problem, it's a calling problem...
the phone reboots itself only on call close...i can do a call, talk with the other person even for an hour, but when i close the call the phone reboots....
i wait for some news, then i'll bring the phone to repir center....sigh !!
thank you for your precious help....
sorry to hear that
open the phone dialer
enter: *#*#4636#*#*
tap on phone information
scroll down
change your preferred network type to: GSM auto (PRL)
try a phone call now
same...
just tried...
set the preferred network type to: GSM auto (PRL)
same thing...
when i touch the red button to end the call in progress, the call closes, i see for 1 second the screen and BUM the phone restarts...
maybe a defective chip ????

sounds to me a fault with the phone
if it can't even be fixed with a hard reset then it's not your problem, especially if it hasn't even been rooted.
send it off for repair they'll fix it or give you a new one. easy as that.
thank you
...tomorrow i'll bring it to the assistance center...
only hope they ''l be fast repairing it.....
thank's for all
this dont sound too good.
Someone else had this issue and Orange sent him a new handset and it did the same.
Could it be a faulty batch of handsets?
edit:
I just called orange CS to see if it resets. I called the no and waited for the menu options and then ended the call and it did NOT reset.
Maybe it happens sometimes. I will see when I get a call next to see if it happens again.
Okay, heres my situation. Before I updated, I was running 2.1 stock, never rooted or made any mods. Then, I updated to the TmoUSA Defy 2.2 update (the one that was briefly released), and now I can no longer connect to 3g/ have EXTREMELY bad 3g reception.
Also, I can no longer boot into recovery mode (power button + volume down). When I see the Android figure with the "!", nothing happens when I touch the bottom left of the touch screen? To originally flash the 2.2 update, I simply went in to recovery, and flashed the update.zip. Im doing nothing differently now, and can no longer get into it.
My main issue I am having though, is with 3g reception. Im in the exact same spot of my house, and used to have 4 bars of 3g, and would get about 1.5mbps down, and now, Im forced onto Edge, which obviously is over 10 times slower -_-
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
UPDATE:
Okay, this is AWFUL. I did a full reset through the recovery, and cleared the cache. But that did not help at all. On top of that, my issues are worse.
My phone cannot connect to 3g, I went to my school, and there are several cell towers on campus, and I always had full bars of 3G service. And guess what? I didnt get a single bar, just 2g service.
New problems occurred, now the phone gets hot, with no programs running. I tried restarting, but that didn't work. Second, my phone died in about 2-3 hours with little to no use, 1 txt thats all. And it DOESNT CHARGE AT ALL. At first, it took a few hours to charge from 20% to full, and now, I tried charging after school, and its stuck at 0%?
Is there any way to downgrade to 2.1, including the baseband? Should I contact Motorola? I've never rooted it, just installed the official 2.2 update for the US, the one that was briefly released (deeply regretting it now :'( )
Try pressing both volume up and down at the same time when you see the android guy. They changed it from touching lower screen in the upgrade to froyo
Then once in recovery do a restore reset and see if that helps.

I presume you are indeed on T-Mo US? I'd start by calling their tech support, just get elevated to upper tier. Then give Moto a shot. Have you done an Operator selection search? If you go into the INFO menu -- dialer > *#*#4636#*#* > Phone information, scroll down to Preferred network type, it should say GSM auto (prl) to get 3G reception. If not, try changing it.
Bump? Any help would be great, I just sent an email to Motorola, but probably wont get a reply for a day or two. I can't even use my phone, it dies within 2 hours, doesn't charge, and wont even connect to 3g.....

Thanks! I'll try that as soon as I can turn on my phone :'( Seriously though, thanks a lot. I am going to try that as soon as possible, but as of now, its been "charging" for 4 hours now, and it still just shows the picture of the battery @ 0%, and wont boot. I honestly have no idea, I tried a few different micro USB chargers, with no luck. When I used my Galaxy S charger, it showed a "?" instead of a %", as if it was not even recognizing the battery.
I assume you have tried the charger that came with the phone and have also tried it connected to USB on a computer?
Have you tried reformatting the SD card (or tried another) -- that may affect boot. And/or have you tried booting w/o SIM? I know you updated, but it could be a coincidental battery failure.

Yes, that could be. But then again, it hasn't connected once to 3g after the update? I'm going to guess I have a battery failure, I kinda had a feeling that it might be that. It was so sudden though, I got great battery life, that lasted at least a full day to 2 days. And then after the update, it would hardly last 2 hours. The phone was also constantly warmer than usual, but I didn't have anything running. Im just going to hope that it was coincidental, and that right after I updated it, my battery died, and I didn't have it on GSM Auto (prl).
Welcome to my world...... I finally got to the point where I could only get Edge... Phone got replaced under warranty.
Now im not sure what the hell is wrong with it that may be causing it but i think the modem may have triggered it because it was running fine all the way up in-till today when i turned on my phone, but however i flashed the modem yesterday around 7 and it was still running fine. I turned off the phone around 11 PM, and turned it on around 7 AM. and it started down from there.
Heres the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQYZPxsBV1Q
to the Visual Aid so you guys can see whats worng and show you all the FC's it has in begining when phone is turned on.
But mind you after the phone is on and running ill be sitting there and not doing anything and the phone will keep popping up the Google Framework services has stopped working Constantly it happened to me today atleast 30 times if not more.

You have corrupted data... Going to have to wipe data and start over... also did u happen to pull the battery out while the phone was on or did u reboot using three button method or 4 finger boot into clockwork?

I had wiped the data after this happened. i pulled the battery after this thought a hard reboot may have been needed, apparently not. I dont know what 3 or 4 finger boot into clock work is i just hold down the Vol. Down + Camera + Power which im taking is the 3 finger boot?

The pulling of the battery is a no-no as it causes corrupt data cause journaling is not on and its like playing russian roulette as you may get lucky and it may not be doing a write
if you pull the battery while its doing a write this is the outcome,
the only time you should have to pull the battery is if an app freezes, or odin hangs or fail...

I have searched for this issue but couldn't find anything about it...
So I got my GSM Galaxy Nexus from Rogers 10 days ago. It has been working dandy with maybe 1 force close the whole time and no random reboots. I also unlocked the bootloader and installed 4.0.2 (yakju) keeping the radio that came with it intact.
I also installed Google Wallet on it and successfully used it. Other than that, I haven't done any tweaks, and like I said, it has been working perfectly with no problems whatsoever.
Enter today: I woke up this morning and went to check my phone. Instantly like 3 applications force closed (ones that weren't even running in the foreground too). Now for the past 3 hours hours or so, applications force close (some won't even have a chance to run for a second) and the phone reboots randomly. I think it has rebooted around 30 times in the past 3 hours. Sometimes it reboots as soon as it has booted up, sometimes it works for a few minutes before rebooting.
Every time it reboots it shows my old battery stats (I think.. from before I went to sleep), and notifies me of the same emails. I managed to install one app before it did a random reboot once, but after the reboot it was gone. (Think Groundhog Day).
I have no idea how to fix this short of doing a factory reset. Anyone have any ideas as to what may be happening or how to fix it?
Thanks.

Is it doing a full reboot or just a "warm start"?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
What's a warm start? It seems to be doing a full reboot.. Screen goes black, then Google logo appears, then the boot animation.
It seems that I cannot do a factory reset.. selecting it in the menu brings me to the android robot on its back with a red exclamation mark, and selecting wipe data from that menu doesn't actually wipe anything even though it says it does.
Try unlocking and relocking your boot loader if you are going to factory reset anyways
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
It's already unlocked.. You mean locking it and unlocking again? Also, is there any way to batch reinstall all the apps tied to my account? And also, any clue how this issue could have originated? I want to avoid it in the future.
No idea.. all I can think of is an app using all of your memory as that's what causes a force close.. and sure try relocking and unlocking if a normal factory reset won't do it. If you have titanium backup you can use that to batch reinstall but if it is an all causing this issue you should install them one at a time to see of there are any adverse effects.
I don't know if it is an app but that is my best guess.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I hadn't installed any new apps prior to this.. and everything was working fine before, which is why I'm confused as to what could have caused this. Also, not just one app force closes, but like 4 at a time.. usually the Google apps for some reason. I checked the memory and the CPU and it seemed to be running at normal levels.
Have you tried an old-fashioned battery pull?
Haven't had this happen to me, but a pull usually does the trick.
Yep, and it hasn't worked.. Every time the device reboots, it will either reboot again right away, or if i don't touch it, it will idle. Then if I try to do anything, 3 or 4 apps will crash instantly, and then it will freeze and instantly restart.
If I manage to install an app, I can run it, but then it crashes and reboots again with no sign of the app. Deleting apps is also useless as they are back after reboot. Strange issue.
Guys, I really need help.. I finally had time to sit down with my phone and figure out this issue so I decided to just do a wipe. As I wrote previously, I am unable to wipe it from within the OS due to it rebooting when I do, so I decided to re-lock the bootloader.
When I typed "fastboot oem lock", it changed the lock state on my phone to locked.. as I was expecting.. however, when I rebooted the bootloader, it was unlocked again. WTF? Now I am trying to flash stock 4.0.2 to it again (which it was already), but it's been stuck on "writing 'system' ..." for half hour
Could the flash memory be corrupted somehow?
Ok, I have deduced that it is most likely corrupted flash memory.. I didn't even know that could happen, especially in 10 days.. I guess that's good ol' "Made in China" at work. Still, am I the only one who has had their flash memory fail on them?
Crossing my fingers that Rogers will replace my Galaxy Nexus even though it's rooted and bootloader unlocked :/
Hey stenzor,
I am facing same problem of rebooting...
But I haven't flashed it to yakju.
Did rogers replaced your?
hello..
well, the duration of the battery is fine. the problems is that when the battery % reaches 9% it goes down to 1%! it passes from 9% to 1% almost instantly. the same thing happens when charging the phone, goes from 1% to 9% charged in seconds.! so, what is happening with the missing %?
it is an Xperia S, stock ICS rom. the one that sony provides.. i've never rooted the phone.
can i solve this with the PC companion? by repairing the phone?
thanks..
(sorry for my bad english)

I had this exact problem a few weeks ago on an LT28at with, at the time, ATT's ICS .111...i flashed everything i could find trying to chase it, rooted, unrooted...did that hard reset thing with the battery full, etc...Mine was about 30% off...it would stay at 100% for hours, and would shut off as soon as the phone hit about 31%...and show all the crazy cliffs in the battery status menu...
I was sent a replacement by AT&T...the directions for returning my old phone stated do a master reset...boot down the phone...remove the sim card...and boot it back up without the sim card...I skipped the master reset, as the phone had just been flashed back to unrooted ATT ICS .111 (wanted that on there went i sent it back)...
booting the phone without the sim card...the battery icon flashed a few times...then popped back to 'normal'...No idea if this was just coincidence, or something else...as again; i had tried every single option i could find on here (rooted batterybin wipes, everything)...none of which seemed to changed anything...but it returned to normal precisely when i did a sim-less boot up...
its worth trying, but no promises...it may just be something that eventually fixes itself...

that's the same thing that is happening to me! but with just a 8% battery missing.
i will try to turn off the phone, then remove the sim card thing.
well you send it to at&t. i can't do that, i'm in Venezuela. bought the phone online.
if this doesn't work i'll try the battery calibration app..
