can you give us some more info? like whether your phone's overclocked? to what frequency? what apps were running? etc...

Well I had setcpu on the cm 6:1:1 and clocked 768 I beleave it would run right then it would reboot like 2 times a day so I took of the oc and set cpu and the reboots were now random like once a day or one at all .. so jumped to cm 7:1 everything is good so I set the built in oc to 768 and it was fine till like with in a few hours it would reboot again reboots are random but like once or twice a day so removed oc and back to the stock and only once a day on none at all ... apps that I use the most and leave runinf facebook, voice, talk , sd-booster at bootup set at 1024, music most of the time, also advanced task manager by rechild, ... if more specific info is needed I'm be glad to give to help me get closer to solve the problem .. thanx

how about battery temperature? how hot does it get when you're using/not using the phone? also, by randomly reboot, does it reboot when you're using the phone or just whenever it wants?

Battery doesn't heat up at all so normal temp ... by randomly I mean when it wants.. it in the pocket and u just feel the buzz of the reboot .. again no oc and just like 3 apps running at most also have cache clener ng runing at 12hour intervolts ... also ran permistion fix threw rom manager but not sure if the fix will stick since its s-on
Edit : forgot to say wifi alway on even when sleep since the phone does not have a data plane

hm... idk but perhaps it's the wifi that's causing those reboots. then again, if you don't have data plan, not using wifi will just turn your phone into paper weight.

Would having it s-on be a issue in any way?
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App

Not at all, I have S-ON and only have reboot problem occasionally when I use wifi, battery gets too hot, or something.

Oh ok ... so would their be a fix for the wifi cuz this is getting annoying I have reflashed like 5 times in hopes it was a bad flash.. and don't really see a big library of roms that ain't sense roms ...

I have had this issue with CM7 as well. Some nightlies are better than others.
To reproduce just keep toggling your wifi. Eventually the phone will reboot. I use to see "kernel panic" messages in the logcat file but the last time I captured logcat for this issue I did not see any message about a kernel panic.
Where would we post a bug for this?

Oh ok so wat u are suggesting it might be cm rom related issue ... would the wifi fix flooting around here help with the issue or have u tried the wifi fix ?

I have not tried the WIFI fix. I would be curious if other can get the reboot to happen by toggling WIFI repeatedly.

Rooting will not have any impact on the hardware, software, or product functionality. Something else must have changed? Did you install CM9 or a custom rom using CM9? There is a known issue with CM9 and download performance.

Yes, i installed CM9 but after using 24 hours i removed it, and i am using stock 2.3.5 ROM. Before this case i tell everybody that this phone's internet speed is very good. but after root its very very slow.

I think I've had a similar issue. Occasionally, after flashing a rom, the browser would load up a tiny bit of pages, and then data transfer would seemingly stop for a long time before resuming. This was on wifi. The problem went away after I fixed permissions I believe, so you could try that, though your problem might be different.

Wifi is also slow in my case. How did you solve this issue?

Have you tried fixing permissions? I think that's what solved my problem.
Unfortunately, it was a while back so I don't remember exactly what I did, and I also did a lot of random things like disabling firewall, wiping data/cache/dalvik, restoring to when I think everything worked, and flashing newer versions of my rom, so it's a bit hard to pinpoint exactly what worked.

You can fix permissions by booting into CWM (holding Vol Down and Power till you see the factory Reset screen, then press power twice)
It's under the advanced options

Unstable ICS V20c update?

I update to v20c a couple of times, the first time I use machzelet unbrick method using v20c kdz, I had a couple of random reboots and the rom was not rooted, after that I flashed brianlili's rotted v20c images, but I still have the random reboots (but I install a lot of software), I do a factory reset and I don't install any software at all and I will test the stability. Any ideas about the random reboots: could it be setcpu, titanium BK, nobloat or lucky patcher?, any ideas?
Thanks.

All I know is I did the official AT&T ICS Install and it is stable as hell, I haven't had a random reboot or dreaded HoNo/CM boot loop at all.
The only thing I miss is the fact that this is not rootable at this time. If and when this does I will root and stick with stock rom and kernel as this has been the stablest my phone has ever been!

I upgraded mine from stock unrooted gb using the lg update tool. I've had one crash/reboot since yesterday when playing a video from gallery using the stock video player. I don't have any of these apps installed. If I keep on having constant random reboots I'll probably try a factory reset and see if it fixes it.

Never saw reboots on 20c, 10f or other unofficial roms.

I strongly recommend doing a factory reset for everyone who upgraded to V10c, even if you don't notice any problems (yet). It's already fixed issues for many people.
My guess is it will fix the reboots.

20c is really unstable for me; even after factory resets. As much as I like UI, I can't be bothered to deal with it and it's terrible battery life.

No more reboots
After the factory reset that I've done yesterday, I had no reboots today, also I recommend reading this google support post:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=28819
The first application, that I suspect as responsible for the reboots its app manager.
Other possible cause could be battery managers aka juice defender or easy battery saver.
The post mention about kernel panic error, and that it’s caused by excessive memory use of an application, I notice that facebook app use aproximate 100mb of memory, so I uninstall it and use the web site (with dolphin).
Other thing that I’ve done was disable almost all lg applications using the stock app manager.
I will install some other applications and let you know about the stability on weekend.

Bad news, Reboots reapear.
So it seems official, ICS for LG Nitro it's not stable:

Ya know, I haven't had any issues at all with the ICS update.

I completely agree, ICS update is running VERY stable with great options to disable a bunch of bloatware. Great options until we get a easy root method

I have the worst problem with GPS locating me with ICS. It takes at least 5-10 minutes for me to connect in google navigation. Only problem I've had with stock ICS though.

Google Maps does not have the GPS lock problem. It's the navigation app that has problems getting GPS lock. It'll be stuck on the screen that says "Searching for GPS"

I use to have this problem in GB, I read in a post that it's related with the servers used in the file /system/etc/gps.conf. You can use an app called FasterFix (require root) to solve this problem.

[Q] GPS navigation not working.

I have noticed this for the last two weeks. My GPS has been acting goofy, and if I try to navigate it will just always say "searching for GPS". I made sure that my actual gps is turned on, I did so from the drop down notification, but I noticed that when opening my maps and stuff, I don't get the gps icon in my notification bar. Any one else experiencing this? I'm wondering if my phone is jacked, or if there's s quick fix. Phone if totally stock, no Rom, it's not flashed or anything. I did update to 4.1
Thanks in advance for any help.

Reset your phone from settings> backup and restore. If that doesn't work then Odin back to stock and repeat.

I think this might be a little excessive.
Hard reset fixed this issue on my S3. Just pull the battery without shutting the phone down then turn the phone back on. I haven't had the issue come back since doing the first and only hard reset on my phone.

Untick and tick back GPS and WiFi localisation in localisation settings.

Search faster GPS in the play store. My phone locks instantly now.

I have been having this same GPS issue since I upgraded to jelly bean....
I have Odin back to stock , changed my kernels, changed base bands, installed various custom ROMs and tried GPS fix apps from the playstore ...The issue still persists......The only time it worked for 2 days straight without issues was when I installed the Paranoid android AOSP ROM.....
It had various bugs I wasn't willing to live with so I am back to wicked v2.1 and still trying to find a permanent solution regarding ng the s3's GPS issue..
The GPS temporarily works when the phone is restarted but after about 10 mins the GPS icon doesn't come on again until the phone is restarted...
I am currently using my Tmobile s3 to send this message and my GPS is not functional at the moment...I always have to restart the phone when I want to use navigation..

I did a battery pull yesterday, GPS has been working along with navigation. I'm just waiting to see how long it will work now. It sounds like it's a known issue than? Let's how there's a fix!

[Q] KK ND3 - WiFi issue

Can someone please help. Background: I flashed the new French ND3 Rom and I'm using the MJ5 bootloader.
Everything is working fine, except for one issue that I cannot resolve:
When the phone wakes from a long sleep (More than an hour), the WiFi does not switch on automatically. If I switch WiFi on via the notification panel toggle or via the settings menu, then WiFi seems to freeze between on and off. The WiFi toggle is dimmed (neither fully on, nor fully off).
The only way to activate WiFi at that point is to do one of the following:
1 Airplane mode - toggle on then off.
2 WiFi hot-spot - toggle on then off.
3 Reboot.
I have already wiped dalvik and cache. I have re-installed the Rom. I have disabled some key apps, including Xposed framework. I have "forgotten" and recreated the WiFi network SSIDs. None of these made any difference. I tried a Google search, with no luck on this specific issue.
UPDATE: I have also reverted to the modern that I used with 4.3, but that did not solve the problem either.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Dennis.

Same here, flashed 4.4.2 through odin 3.09 over official 4.3 (MK9 bootloader). Rom is running just fine except for this wifi problem and also samsung wallet comes preinstalled but when entering the app and try to install it nothing happens.

Nobody else encountered this problem ????

No such problem..... i had issues using philz... later i switched to twrp cleaned everythin rom ,dalvik, cache... and then i patched aio fixes... and everythin seemed to wrk fine

As i mentioned i am using stock 4.4.2 with stock recovery, and as dennis mentioned in the 1st post he did a wipe with no succes, so not really sure that wiping the system will really work but 10x anyway
Sent from my LG-V500 using Tapatalk

Well, I managed to find a workaround: set WiFi to "always" in the "keep WiFi on during sleep" setting in the WiFi advanced menu.
I did this about 15 hours ago and have not had a freeze since. ?
I know that it pushes up battery consumption marginally, but it is good enough for now - much better than the annoying freeze?

Maybe the option "keep wifi during sleep" is set to never (increases data usage)

Is it the rom's bug? There is not this problem when i use omni rom.:silly:

wifi working again
I woke up this morning to find that my wifi is working again (till now) even though the keep wi-fi during sleep was set to never the phone managed to connect to my home wireless network (the sleep interval was at least 7 hours). This was possible after 2 factory data resets. The only problem i am facing now is with Samsung wallet which refuses to install on my phone.
