I just started my Galaxy Nexus yesterday for the first time after fully charging it as advised by the quick start guide, went through the wizards normally till the end.
From the very first hour of use, my GN went online and found an update to the volume issue and it asked to update and reboot. I accepted, and the update completed. So, from the very first use, I have an up-to-date unit.
The first test was to try a missed call. I called my GN from a phone far from it (in another room), then aborted the call from my other phone, and bang! A GN reboot. Tried again. Also GN reboot. And a third, a fourth. The following have been tried, but did not help:
1. Used a more recent SIM card from another carrier.
2. Disabled data services, and 3G
3. Used only 2G network
4. Manually powered off the device, then on instead of an auto-reboot
5. Added the number of the missed call to my contacts
6. Did a factory data reset
7. Did a missed call from a 3G connected device
8. Did a missed call from a 2G connected device
9. Wiped battery, its contacts on phone, and SIM card with a clean soft cloth
The missed calls are not recorded!
I have also experienced the following:
1. Random reboot while playing music
2. When calling a number, my GN hangs and reboots. Reboot probability is 70%
3. Rejecting a call causes a reboot 50% of the times
4. A very few times, I got missed calls. Not specific pattern for success. Success rate is very much less than 95%
5. The failure rate is higher after an auto-reboot
6. After the call ends, the phone hangs and then reboots
Given the above:
1. What exactly might be wrong here? Is it the hardware itself? The software? Or something else related to the network?
2. Has anyone seen this issue or a similar one?
I have now paid 25% of the device price to get it from UK to my country. Returning it will also cost a fortune!
Please give me a sincere advice.
Thanks in advance.

Does it look like an issue with radio software only? or also the image?
Will it help if I flash it with Google factory image? Or is it a hardware related issue?
Any thoughts, please?
Hassle continues
Without changing anything since yesterday, I can now receive missed calls most of the times, BUT I am completely unable to dial number.
Dialing any number just causes a phone reboot!

Very good day
I have a query, I have a HTC Touch PRO 2 RHOD300
The phone is counting on the next problem happens when you try to turn the screen by pressing the button on top that will not start and if you take the pen side of the phone just turn on the lights in the lower keys where this call, Windows key, Back and Finish. The phone returns to regain normal when a call comes in after the returns to be shut down and locked and not back on the screen.
In other cases there is the disadvantage that remains off, open the phone to expand and to use the qwerty keyboard and this light comes on but no screen and if you call the phone number that shows no signs of life with this call More on the other side of where you are calling is heard that he was calling.
My question is whether they have a patch for the solution and if someone else had already reported this fault, this problem is being presented to several phone numbers of friends and wanted to see whether if they had a patch to fix what they could afford to apply it to the phones have this fault.
If in case anyone has a solution for this above I would appreciate very much.
Funny... I have been experiencing this same problem just recently. I have another identical phone and replace the sim card in it with the same results. It doesnt appear to happen to the phone when the sim card is not installed. I have tried hard reset, selectively installing programs, thinking it was a programing problem with one or another, but nothing I tried seems to change the problem. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Note that for my part I've been trying to give solution to the problem and have identified the following place your sim but the connections do not let my ISP leaves your network connection as my job to your phone so you do not use the 3G data network, thus the problem will not happen.
To me this is what happens, the phone went dead, but if you remove the stylus from the side, the lower lights are lit but not the screen, but if you make a phone call to your cell this and respond, but entering Idle this again locked again.
HTC have written to me but these have not been resolved.
I am in Guatemala and I used 2 different companies and the problem persists.
You friend in that country is, and have only confirmed this problem also began to give you on Friday May 20? because that was the time when many telephones HTC Touch Pro2 here began to have these symptoms.
Yes. Friday would be correct.
So if the issue is global, it is the end of the world of mobile
This doesn't appear to be a new problem though. If you search on "Screen of Death", it is quite common. However, I have tried several of the solutions that I have come across, with no go. It is complicated by the fact that we started experiencing the problem at the same time.

Hi,
Wondering if anyone is experiencing this issue.
Got the uk version of galaxy nexus, GT-I9250 ordered from an online store from the us. Only within the first 24 hours I experienced a time where I suddenly lost my 3g.. the signal bar shows no service. Only way to get back is to reboot phone.
After it happened few times and doing some testing, it turns out the radio just shuts down. Going to settings, about then status shows radio off. Going to the secret menu that gets accessed by typing a nmber also says radio is off. There is a button to turn radio on.. but it does nothing.
Tried factory reset, .didn't install any apps. Still issue occurred. Also noticed at random time before the total radio sshutdown, I do lose 3g few a minute then comes back.
See my screen captures showing issue attached.
The preferred network type when the radio works is shown as GSM/CDMA auto. During issue its unknown as shown in capture. Changing from unknown to gsm/cdma auto after failure does nothing.
Of course ttried to turm 3g on/off.... airplane mode on/off.. nothing works except a reboot.
I am on Kk1 radio. I didn't try kk6 as i didn't want to touch the phone in anyway to void warranty. my buddy has same phone but doesn't experience iissue. Same phone, same carrier, same city.
Any thoughts?
Maybe exchange it for a new one? My only advice
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App on UNL3ASH3D R3BLURR3D V2.3 and will continue to be sent from here until I buy the Galaxy Nexus 32GB
Have you tried running logcat to see if there are any logs to suggest whats crashing your radio?
Mine done exactly the same as yours and I am with Orange UK who stated I have a faulty sim card and are sending one out in the post to me so hopefully if that resolves mine you can also ask for a replacement sim card as well.
P.S I found that speediest.net knocks wireless/radio off sometimes and also wireless on mine can totally freeze as well so hoping this will be fixed asap by google.
I have same issue - loosing signal completely just with no reason very often. Turn phone off/on - works fine. I have brand new sim card and phone from Handtec, Vodafone UK.
Ditto for me as well. Purchased from Expansys, second round. It will move between 3G and H then shut off. Happened once so far. I'm using a MicroSIM with an adapter, both worked fine and are new.
I'll be watching this very closely. Someone with a Google account can post this to bring it to their attention?
Happened a second time but came back on. Attached a screen shot.
It does happen where the signal is lost, then comes back. That could happen few times before it goes down and then never comes back up at all. I used a program called signal alert to tell me when. It happens. I found that during the day signal is fully lost a number of times but it comes backafter less than a minute. at some point its lost and doesn't come back and only reboot fixes.
Bmstrong, the capture u showed me shows you lost data, but it seems you still have voice. Look at the screen I posted, u can see no bars what so ever in my signal meter.
When the issue occurs, its random, so by the time I find out and i ran alogcat, I would have missed it. Alogcat only shows me few minutrs before. However, I kept looking at alogcat after the fact and there was nothing that i could see that explains this.
I did try another sim while the trouble is occurring and no use.
I have requested rma from where I bought it and just waiting for authorization. Will share my experience with it and the store after.
Thanks,
Bmstrong, go to settings and about, then status to see if it says radio off. If it doesn't then it either your really lost 3g..maybe coverage or a different issue. In my case radio says its off and never comes back.
sorry to post a little off topic. but how do you see the first screen in the OP's post?
I'm getting this issue too, does anyone have any more information or has resolved this?
When going into the phone info screen does pressing "turn on radio" work for anyone? I have to do a reboot before I get signal back.

Luxferro, type *#*#info#*#* in your dialer.
My HTC Desire is unable to maintain a call for some reason, and in fact I am having a number of different call-related issues with it. Firstly, sometimes it will not call a number at all, it simply says it is connecting and then beeps and ends the call, before the call has connected. It will do this lots of times, then eventually it will call. This is not a signal issue as if I put my SIM card in a different phone, standing in the same place I have an excellent signal. The phone will also often cut off mid-call by beeping and just ending the call.
In addition to this, sometimes it makes a staticky 'pfffftttt' noise and cuts out mid-call. Again, my other phone works fine with my sim card in and has a full signal. I know it is not the handset itself as this is my third handset (due to other issues) so I wonder whether this must just be a common fault....
Any suggestions as to how to fix this problem? (I would call Vodafone and ask for a new phone but calling is somewhat of an issue right now!!!)
I have my desire 1,5 year and the problem starts last week...help please.
Hey!
If you are using stock firmware, give your phone for repair. However, if you are on custom rom, try updating your radio or make a full wipe (This should help you).
Regards
Tried a different rom, different kernel, and instal the latest radio(32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23) didnt help... the phone hangs up during call...
SIM problems
I have a perplexing problem with two phones that I have. The issues is, when the phones go to sleep (either by timing out while on battery or when I hit the power button on the phone to turn off the screen), the CDMA radio will shut off after a while and won't turn back on until I perform one of the following:
1. Reboot
2. Make a phone call
3. Send a text message
4. Switch in and out of airplane mode.
I know when it's off because I will suddenly get a flood of text messages when I perform any of the above tasks.
I thought originally this was something wrong with my phone (maybe too much flashing), so I got another Galaxy Nexus (Sprint). Unfortunately, it does the same thing. If I keep it on a charger and do not turn the screen off, everything works fine.
The phones are a Galaxy Nexus that works with Sprint. Since I don't know when it happens, I captured a logcat of the phone overnight after I turned the screen off. The next morning, I had to dial out to "wake" the phone.
I have factory reset the phone, flashed another rom (it seems to happen to anything that was based on CM), All these have happened multiple times trying to fix the issue. I have wiped dalvik and cache with no avail. Is there something I'm not trying?
I tried looking around to see if anyone else had this problem, but came up empty.
Perhaps someone had had this problem as well and can direct me to a fix.

Hello,
I'm noticing a strange behavior on my (rooted) LG G3 since 1 month.
Every afternoon I leave my car more or less in the same place and them I walk home.
This thing happens everyday at different times (from 16 to 21).
The strange thing is that once that I'm walking home if i get my LG and start to unlock it the phone reboots.
If I walk a little more (far from the place where I park) no reboots happens.
Really strange to me. It seems something related to the place (phone cell?)
Anyway on that place the phone often locks the phone cell with alternative telephone operator (with "R").
But I think that this couldn't be the reason of the reboot, otherwise the reboot should happen also in the morning.
I have Wifi and Bluetooth turned on too.
Can someone help me to investigate using logs to the reason of the reboot?
I have bought 3C application (without any tweak added) so that i can access logs once that the phone completed the reboot.
Can someone help me to understand what I have to look for to find the reboot reason?
Thanks a lot
