So sometime over the course of the night, my phone died, I woke up plugged it up, and no signal. Pulled battery, still no signal. Couldn't get signal at all. Everyone else here had it but me. I was running liquid 3.2 with aeros kernal, latest radio etc. I had been on that ROM for 1 month, no problems. I finally went into recovery, wiped, and restored a backup of sabatoge sense, now, signal is back everything is fine, any ideas what might have caused this? I just found it really odd and have never had that happen before...

Sometimes ROMs just take a s**t. On my Inc1, I had been running CM7 for about a month, went on vacation to Costa Rica, and the ROM just epically FAILED like the third day. Every app force closed on opening as well as an acore force close every few minutes. If you wiped cache, dalvik, and fixed permissions, it was fixed for like 2 hrs, then it happened again. I restored a backup of some other ROM.
Yeah that's what I figured just thought it was weird cause I didn't know roms were tied in to signal acquisition or the radio, thanks man

Is your back panel properly connected?
Yeah, like I said, problem fixed now, I know the antennas back there, I actually cleaned the connectors and pulled the prongs up a few days ago, I was getting crappy service, but that wasn't it, thanks though man

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.
Strange bug

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.

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?

So this morning for no apparent reason my phone started freaking out and was flashing FC's on the screen, it appeared to be every app installed, Google, Touch Pro, etc... I pulled the battery, then re-booted and it just started over. I finally went back into CWM and reloaded SFR, then Genocide, then re-enabled Journaling (ran the zip) and everything seems to be okay now (except the battery has been sucking juice worst than being on stock). Just wonderin if anyone else has experienced this? I honestly didn't do anything to the phone, it was in my holster, I pulled it to check email. I love this rom, and I'd rather not go back to stock... thanks for any help.
Sounds like a bad flash. Flash it again only wipe before you do. Do a nand restore>advanced restore data from a known good nand.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
and dont forget to calibrate your battery after a fresh rom flash.
This has happened to me on sfr 1.2, 3 times now. For no good reason. I ended up having to reinstall rom a few times when other fixes failed. Since I enabled journaling its been a good boy though.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Thanks all, I did flash again (and yep, wiped x3 before doing it). I had journaling on to begin with (or at least I thought I did, I ran the zip to turn it on). We'll see how it plays out today. I love this rom.... Thanks for all the help.

I had a similar problem when I didn't have Journaling ON so double-check to make sure that you have the turned on after you reflash the ROM.

Yeah I always turn Journaling on after I flash. It did it again today (for no apparent reason), all of a sudden I started getting FC's (from LauncherPro), so I couldn't get to the home screen or anything. I finally wiped everything again (x3 of course), reinstalled the Rom, then the Kernel, then turned Journaling On, then restored my last backup. It's getting just a little bit old, has anyone else had the problem of LauncherPro just FC for no apparent reason? Thanks!

At this point, I would try downloading the ROM again. I would also check out different Kernel. I'm using Genocide 2.0 and it works perfectly.

We have the same thing with my Wife's phone. It started after her phone shut down from low battery. Then BOOM Force Closes, in Swype and Google Apps. I had to do a full wipe 3x and reload the ROM to get it to work again. MAJOR PITA!
Especially because she is much less forgiving of phone "flakyness" than I am.
Thoughts?

That's how I got it back to working. The 2nd time was from Launcher Pro FC'ing, but I wiped it again and re-imaged the Rom and Kernel. Then turned Journaling back on. I think it just gets in a "weird" state sometimes. It takes me about 3 minutes to re-run everything (including the backup once I re-image) and I guess I just don't see it as any worst than stuff I have to do to PC's all day long when testing....haha
Same happened to me. Just reinstalled rom and kernel

I had the Photon so random reboots aren't to surprising to me. Hell even on my old T-Mobile htcs I flashed so much random reboots were the name of the game. But with my phone rebooting at least 6 times in the past 24 hours, I'm not too thrilled. It happens doing the most random tasks. Stumble upon, trying to open Gmail once, internet browsing. I'm wondering if this is because of root or just the phone. Anyone else experience this?

No random reboots here. Did you flash any kernels or are you stock?
I got my phone Friday 9-16, still 100% stock no root and I have not had one random reboot. If you are on stock without root you should return your phone, sounds like it is defective to me. When I saw random reboots in the title I thought I was in the Old Epic section
random reboot = probably a dud
manufacturers manufacture thousands of these devices a day, and flaws unfortunately occur
exchange!

I am rooted. I first rooted with the Zedomax method, and then tried v5 of the ACS method two days ago, which is when I started getting the random reboots. I now switched to the Zedomax Overclocked Kernel (not using the overclock) to see if that fixes anything. If not maybe they'll release the stock kernel soon, and find a way to reset both flash counters.
Im completely stock and have had 2 reboots today. At first I thought maybe my hip case was pressing buttons but I had it out on my desk and then I hear it reboot. Im like WTF? I remember it did this on day one a couple of times and maybe a couple since then now I get 2 today damn near back to back. When the update comes out to fix known issues, hopefully this is one of them!
just got one today. Running Stock..
I am completely stock. No root. I've had 3 already.
I've reverted to the stock kernel with root and no reboots so far. I'm making sure to keep my number of open apps low though

I've had 2 random reboots tonight. One was while uploading photos to facebook, the other was while it was just sitting in my cupholder in the car. The cupholder one was weird though, the screen was on, and it made the reboot noise. It was like it lagged on it, but the phone was still semi usable for about a minute, then it finally shut off and came back. Another thing is random keyboard freezes, and again tonight, my settings menu wouldn't come up until after I restarted it.
So far in the week of having this phone it has rebooted twice

Well, it's been 4 days now without a reboot. I'm guessing stopping services makes this thing go crazy. I thought stopping maps, turning off background data, etc would make battery life better (like it did on the Epic)...well, it doesn't, and like I said earlier, freaks this thing out. So, don't stop anything, and it'll be fine.

Mine is going to be 1 week old tomorrow, and I am currently stock (so weird for me I root as soon as I get a device), but I honestly havent felt the need to root, and I also wanted to run a stock device for a while.
Anyhow, no problems here phone is running solid, no reboots or anything.
I had to do manually restart yesterday in order to get the camera working again. Went into the camera, and it was just a black screen with the controls around it. I love Android, but I hate that it isn't as stable as BBOS, or even iOS.

I've been having issues lately with my Inc. Seems like its on sense ROMs, even stock. My phone will just freeze then reboot. Timing varies. What app I'm using varies. Flashed several ROMs, with full wipes. Even formated everything and started over fresh with a stock ROM. Still having freezes and reboots. It's getting very frustrating. Does anyone have any ideas?

Same here. Usually freezes and reboots at least once a day. Started probably about a week ago. Worked fine with the ROM/Kernel below for a good month prior. Only thing I can think of is I downloaded a bad update at some point.
Original Incredible
ROM - Wildstang 2.3.4
Kernel - 2.6.35.13 gingertiny-v2
Well,i has the same sort of problem...I took it back to the store to show the customer service reps and it never rebooted. About halfway home, it started rebooting again. Now I have to go back to the store.

Try installing incredicontrol and over-bolting a little bit. The chips in these phones like a little extra push in their "old age".

Yeah, I've been tinkering, and I'm seeing that my phone doesn't like the lower voltages in Tiny's kernels. I am running Jermaine's stock+ right know and things have stabilized. So yeah, must be voltages. Just threw me off because I've been running Tiny's since he started. I haven't had a reboot yet on stock+ kernel. Thank you everyone for your input.
