Problems with SIM and Power - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi,
It seems every so often my phone decides to reject the SIM. Most of the time, I can fix the problem by rebooting, but sometimes I have to open the phone and remove the SIM, and put it back. This can be a hassle for me, because sometimes it happens during school(only got a week left so it's not that much of a hassle), and I can't rip apart my phone and do it in the middle of class. I'm using the 9-20120525-NIGHTLY-toro version of CM9, and will be updating, but this seems like an issue that might not be fixed by that.
I also get my phone stuck thinking that it is charging when it left the plug, which can only usually be resolved with a battery pull, as not even a reboot can fix it. Can anyone help me at all?
Also, if this counts as a question, sorry. I wasn't sure, and accidentally read that post after I posted this one, because the issue is rather urgent, so if it is a question, just delete it, and I'll repost it in the Q/A forum. Sorry!

Found in the Wiki!!
oh :S
thx
do u have an idea as to what might be causing my problem?
No sorry, I really don´t know what is causing the problem.
Perhaps a problem with some internal conection?
Have you tried to reflash to another ROM, perhaps is something related to a bad flash...
Sorry I can´t be of more help here
its ok man..thx anyway...i did flash other roms nd its still the same...i guess i have to take it apart to find out :S

Before dismantling to check connections, I'd try just a little strip of card between the casing and the battery on the opposite side to the battery contacts. The idea is to push the battery just a bit more firmly against the contacts. If this works then it suggests your battery is a little loose or the contacts need cleaned.

i already dismantled it nd checked all the connections..everything was firmly connected nd ok..after i put it together again it worked for a couple of days without any problems , then everything turned back to the way it was :S
sometimes...not always, nd thats wat sucks about it..u never know when its gonna turn off :S
i'll try the battery card thing nd get back to u though i doubt it cz i this was my initial thought.i checked the battery nd its firm in its place..the device is still brand new..no warranty though :S

phone crashes when slide out the keyboard

hello,
I have noticed that sometimes when opening an SMS , if i slide out the keyboard the phone crashes and needs a hard reset.
do you think that there is any solution for this?
Try flashin another rom to narrow down and see if it's a hardware issue. if it was the the rom causing it. post in his thread instead of opening a new thread.
I think you mean a soft reset. If you had to do a hard reset you would have to load all the software again. Just trying to clarify things for others to help you.
Happens (soft reset required) with my stock [email protected] rom occasionally.
yeah soft-reset is needed
any ideas?
i also asked in the thread for my rom version
i just had mine yesterday and its still the basic 6.1 version.
everytime i slide the keyboard, everything just seems to lag for some times before magically returns to normal. Same thing happen when i slide the keyboard back.
This might related somehow to the TC question....is this normal? I've searched and found nothing
This is happening to me and a collegue on our recently purchased T-Mobile htc tp2. This seems to be somewhat of a recurring issue on tp2 from what I have been reading... some people say it is a problem on the mother board of the thing... hope someone has something different to say!!
I have the same issue with my stock tilt 2, it only happens from time to time. Last night when i set my phone down on my center consule in my truck i noticed the phone shut down as well. When i turned it back on i pressed on the back of the phone with the cover on and it shut down again. When i took the cover off thinking the battery might be loose somehow the phone didn't shut off while pressing down on the battery. I put the cover on again and it shut off when i pressed on it but i can't figure out what it is

[Q] Desire screen failing to wake from sleep. Please help me.

Having an issue with my htc desire (it has a stock desire rom)
Basically when my phone goes to sleep the screen remains blank and I cannot seem to get the screen active
when I try to wake up the device as per norm the buttons light up however the screen remains blank..
the phone still seems functional (volume works, etc) however it does not respond to being 'woken up'
I have have done all sorts to try and resolve the problem, this includes checking sd card for errors, resetting phone.
Im a loss to what could be causing this, the phone is a right pain to use now, I go on a call and then screen dims but never recovers, however can still continue with the call.
I have to pull out the battery and restart the phone to have the screen 'wake'
I have looked at these threads of people with similar issues but no one has put up a solution.

Tried testing the sd card for errors still have the problem.
Different SD card still have the problem
I tested it with the sd card removed and still have the same problem.
In airplane mode I still have the problem
With different sim I still have the problem
Tried two new roms, still have the problem (previous to this I had not changed roms in months).
Any ideas? How did other people fix this?
Strangely though after leaving it overnight it woke once the first time this morning. Now back to not waking.
Please help
hi,
another desire owner wrote the same issue on the QA forum...

at first sight seems to be a sd card issue... also have a look on sdfix thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1010807
happens to me but just once, i just pull out the battery.
looking forward about sd card tweeking
hope this help
As I said it happens whether or not there is an SD card in the phone. And with different SD cards so I do not see how it could be an SD card problem.
Fixed it now. I took it apart then put it back together.

I have similar problem here...
Our case is that we can't wake a phone after deep sleep..Touch screen is just not responding. We can see a caller (when somebody is calling) and screen but touch screen is not responding.
After we lock it and unlock it again via Power button, all is just fine...
We caused that by disassembling and assembling the Phone..There was some dust behind digitizer, so we had to clean it...
There must be some strange thing that is not behaving as it should when U proceed
to disassembling and assembling..
So Guys out there...be carefully and think twice before you make decision to disassemble your Desire...

I realize now that problem that you had, has nothing to do with mine, because I have this issue, with or without Sim card..

[Q] Phone started glitching, please assist.

I'm not sure what happened with this phone but yesterday out of the blue it started doing a few random strange things. It will make the little beep like it's been plugged in when it hasn't and will say charging. The screen will come on, and then usually it will not time back out. Also this stupid vlingo app that I can't seem to remove keeps turning itself on. My phone is answering on speaker automatically even though I don't want it to.
Anyway, this phone is rooted. Unfortunately, I rooted it when I first got it quite some time ago and I don't remember which kernel or rom I have. I've been gone for a really long time from here and I'm just not sure what the easiest way would be to fix this. Any input would be really appreciated. I just don't wanna lose my contacts and apps and stuff. I have titanium backup but I have not run a new backup yet bc I'm not sure what the source of the problem is. I don't wanna back something up and then restore the problem again.
Use titanium backup to remove apps. Check your charge port for dust or bent pins.

it's more than just an app, the whole phone is acting up, I need to either factory reset the phone or apply a new rom/kernel or something, simply removing an app isn't going to fix what is going on. I cannot get the phone to work normally. I'm not sure what all I can do
Well you were not and still am not being specific at all. Remove vlingo with TB and that will solve your issues with that. Make sure you don't have any shorted pins in your charge port or excessive dust and that may or may not be the culprit for that random charging while not charging and answering on speaker issue. It is up to you to diagnose your phone and do what you think will work. I nor anyone else is going to help you if you don't want to help yourself. It is YOUR problem. I have given advice, take it or leave it. If you want a new ROM, go find one that suits your needs, read and understand the OP of your chosen ROM and flash it. We are not going to just give you what you want. You obviously know how to read. Take advantage of that.

I am really sorry, I can assure you that I did not mean to come off rude in any way. I think you read what I wrote differently than how it was meant when I wrote it. I do appreciate you taking the time to respond and I'll try to be a little more clear.
I did remove the app using TB, thank you for that tip, but there is i think another voice app that is now popping up instead, I will try to remove that one as well but I havent done that yet because I wanted to find out if that was the way I should go. What I meant about it not being just the one app being the problem is that so many problems seem to have started all at once. These are the problems that have started over the last 2 days.
The lock screen now rotates, it used to be stationary
the phone answers on speaker, when I take it off speaker it occasionally reverts back to speaker
The screen turns on by itself and doesn't time back out, it stays lit until I hit the button
when I type a text message this other voice app now pops up and i have to close it to return to typing the text, and it happens over and over
When the phone is not plugged in I hear the sound that it makes when I plug it in, and it says charging, then later it goes back to battery, then back to charging (i did check the prongs and I don't see anything bent)
So like I said it's a lot of stuff that just came all of a sudden, And I'm not sure if I'm better off removing apps or starting over with a factory reset, or if I should flash the phone with a different rom. Like I said basically after I rooted the phone I for the most part just used the phone for the next almost 2 years, I wasn't really testing a lot of roms or anything like that so I'm just a little unfamiliar with how to proceed from this point.

Random Reboots?

I was just wondering if anyone else has an issue with their Note 4 rebooting randomly with no external input. This started happening with the Android 6.0 update both on the download from here and the AT&T official release, Any Ideas? I've already purchased a new battery due to a separate issue, any idea?
I had the same problem. The phone would freeze and randomly reboot. Sometimes the system crashes and asked me for the typed-in password (not fingerprint). Sometimes when I charge the phone, and unplug the power cable, the charging led stays lit and the battery has to be pulled. I decided to switch the battery with my wife's Note 4 and see if the effects remained. So far I haven't had any problems after switching the battery, so I believe the battery may be the cause of all these issues. I'll keep you updated on the issues.
I'm back. The battery replacement didn't fix the reboots. I think my phone's hardware is permanently damaged. :crying:
have you downgraded?
and can you help me with my problem?[

can you downgrade to Android 5.0.1 and help me with my problem?
its something completely different to this topic
I've been having the same issue, started about 2 weeks ago. phone would start being sluggish then if I continue tapping on screen, it'll reboot. At least once I saw it go into recovery & reinstall firmware(?). Another time it just sat at the bootloader screen waiting for software download or something till I took out the battery. Most likely it's a software issue related to 6.0 update or updates afterwards. taking out the SD card helped a bit.
but basically got annoyed & upgraded to LG V20 today. Coincidentally, there was another person at the AT&T store with a Note 4 having the same issue.
Mine just rebooted twice on me a while ago, first is emergency calls only now the reboots then what. And yes the slow charging is a problem too. MM got serious issue dam att

use wakelock its an app u get it from play store.it makes ur cpu always running.some how it fixes the problem of random reboots. dl it and set it to partial lock (the 5th option)
Same problem. Just started a few weeks ago. REALLY frustrating having to enter my password every 3-4 minutes. NEVER buying another Samsung, too many damn issues with this phone.
My reboots tend to happen once the phone goes below 60% battery. It's fine above 60%. Once it goes below 50%, the reboots tend to happen with any intense network activity. The phone will often go from 50% to 22%. I forgot what the 30's and 40's look like. I will try the Wakelock app.
Ugh. I posted about this a few weeks ago. It's started happening more frequently and will occasionally go into a boot loop or show 0% battery even though there's a charge.
Has anyone found any solution? I haven't tried wiping / resetting but I'm getting close to trying it.
Here is a cautionary tale for you. My completely stock, unroooted phone started acting the same exact way. On the 4th or 5th battery pull (to fix a frozen screen) it just crapped out. It's totally unresponsive. Deader than a door nail. Tried everything. The download mode, discharging by power button depression/battery removal, etc. Adb shell command does not detect it. Nor Odin. Computer throws up a qhsusb_bulk error when I plug it into pc. I have NO CLUE how to fix it & I am desperately seeking a solution. Please proceed wisely with your oddly acting phones & don't let this happen to you.

Same issue. Just got off the phone with Samsung support, all possibility of having this particular phone with this particular issue sent in for evaluation has been suspended. Translation, they know it is an issue and will not stand by the changes they push to their products (latest OS). I am researching the prospect of legal action since THEY pushed the new OS against my request. Shouldn't that affect the warranty or coverage? Consulting my attorney friends as we speak. Will let you know. I am not sure how WakeLock will help, it is not going to sleep, it is repeatedly power cycling through a kernel process until the battery overheats or it reboots.
Same issue
Since Marshmallow, my 910A will get sluggish or freeze, shut down, sometimes reboot and sometimes just brick (temporarily). Sometimes--more often in recent days, I get a "dll_mmc read fail" message and the target that says do not stop downloading. No matter what I've tried--factory and soft resets, cache clearing, battery pull, replacement, and SD card switch, contacting AT&T and Samsung rep--it doesn't seem to change. This is a daily issue and becoming more frequent. Any suggestions or do I just need a new phone? Thank you.
