Hello!
This is my first post at this forum, so be gentle
I know very little about phones and I had friends to help me unroot it and partition the SD card. I'm using this ROM - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1403113&
It works fine for a while, but then apps randomly force close and if I try to open some app it just force closes. If I try to report the issue the reporting program force closes as well. And after making a call it says android phone has stopped working. Sometimes I need to enter my SIM-card pin-code and it says the SIM-card has been removed and I need to reboot. Sometimes my screen wont go on when I press the power button (but the buttons light up as usual) and the only way to solve this is to remove the battery. I googled the force close issue and found that it might help changing the CPU-governor to something else than Smartass V2 so I tried that but it didn't get any better no matter which of them I chose.
So, what shall I do? Is there any better ROM that I don't know of and that I should be using instead? Have I forgotten something important?

Hey
I'm asking if there are others who have this problem too.
The Phone app can force close sometimes and i need to re-enter my pin code again to start it up. Today i didn't look at my phone and when i picked it up the battery was totally empty
Can a software update/other rom solve this problem?
Thanks
Hi, I just went through the installation guide for the Runnymede ROM for my HTC Desire and It says that the installation is complete. I try to boot the phone up and all seems well. It's right at the last second when the phone seems to be active and ready to show the 'pull ring to unlock' screen where I get flooded with Force Closes. I keep pressing close and it doesn't stop. There is also nothing else apart from the default background Any ideas on how to fix this?
Did you follow this? http://iweb.dl.sourceforge.net/project/runnymededesire/AROME-GUI/HQ-RM AIO Install Guide.pdf
It says the moment you see the lock screen, you don't do anything and wait a little more.
Yeah, but the lock screen doesn't come up? What happens is that it shows a completely plain background and then loads of messages saying that loads of apps need to be force closed..
And I pressed force close and different apps need to be force closed and it doesn't stop.
Pull the battery and restart the phone and after a 10 or so minute wait everything should load up fine.
Okay, will do, if that fails what next?
Did it work?
Yeah, thank you so much!
Sorry for the late reply, been playing around with it! It's a god send, thank you very much!!
I've had this problem sometime over a month now, can't remember if I did anything to make it like this. I made a post somewhere about it happening the 17th of May, so it started somewhere before that.
My phone will freeze for 2 seconds and then reboot itself.
It started while I was on stock 4.0.2 and now I'm on stock 4.0.4 IMM761. I have a GSM Galaxy Nexus.
It only happens just after the phone has been woken up and something is started. The most common (as it's my go-to-way of forcing it, to see if it's still there) is after waking up the phone, sliding down the notification bar and pressing "settings", which doesn't open but the phone freezes and reboots itself. I first discovered this when I wanted to go in there to change screen brightness. It's also happened when I went into the notification bar and pressed a battery app there. It doesn't matter if I'm doing it in the lock screen or after the lock screen.
It's also happened when I wake up the phone and enter the camera through the lock screen.
It also regularly happen if I set an alarm in the morning. When my alarm is suppose to play it freezes and reboots, and when it's rebooted, the alarm has been cancelled without ever playing.
It doesn't need to wake from deep sleep to do this, I've had it happen mere minutes after trying to see if it's there.
I don't know if it has something to do with this, but the 21st of April I tried to do the "clear google services framework" trick to force 4.0.4 ( I was on yakjuxw), but it did not work and I remember my phone acting janky and I was scared it messed something up, but I seem to remember it getting better. I can't remember what exactly it did though.
I've read that 4.0.4 would fix the reboots that a lot of people were having (don't know if it was the exact same kind of reboots as mine) so I did this to make my phone a yakju (translated from Danish):
http://translate.google.dk/translat...at-modtage-opdateringer-til-din-galaxy-nexus/
I did that the 8th of June, and it worked flawlessly and I was on 4.0.4 IMM761 in no time. Unfortunately it did nothing to stop these reboots.
As part of the process of making my phone a yakju I, of course, did a complete factory reset, although I did make a copy of my entire SD and transferred everything over again after the process.
These past two weeks I've tried the following to fix it:
Clear cache partition in recovery.
Clear google services framework.
Clear media storage.
Tried to uninstall many apps, 2-3 a day, to see if they were causing it, re-installing them when I still had the same problem. If it's an app causing this I've yet to find it, but I find it weird that an app could be causing this.
It happens once a day, but never close to each other. It seems that some time has to pass before it can happen, and it only ever happens just after the phone is woken up, either by my alarm or by me opening the notification bar and pressing something there.
Please help me, this is unbearable.
Another thing, yesterday I tried to let it run without me pulling down the notification bar and pressing "settings", which would set off the freeze-reboot. I found that my phone would not freeze-reboot but very often it would "reload" app icons and widgets when I went around my homescreens. Where I can only see my wallpaper for half a second and then the icons/widgets appear. It would do this very often throughout my 1day 5hour uptime, and a couple of times I would try to force the reboot (by pressing "settings" in the notification bar), after the icons/widgets did the invisible/load thing and it didn't reboot. This must have something to do with it?
hi,
experienced this on my nexus s back then what i did is from recovery>mount and storages>formatted system, boot, and everything else except sd card.then it was all gone.btw you will have to flash your rom and kernel again as this is a full wipe.hope i helped and do this on your own risk

I haven't tried that yet. I'm trying a "RAM booster" app to see if that helps, but that doesn't sound too stable even if it does.
I'm going to do a full factory reset and installing nothing, or moving anything to the SD, and just let it run like that to see if it works.
Just writing an update for anyone googling themselves here with the same problem, I had it resolved.
I found out that if I didn't force the reboot (by turning on the phone and quickly pulling down the tray and pressing something there) it could last a long time with just the launcher resetting, but it would lead to complete freezes (anywhere I was on the phone) and would require a battery-pull.
My plan was to wait for jelly-bean before doing another factory reset, I got the JB update and it completely removed the problem. I still don't know why the problem suddenly started or what caused it, all I know is that the JB update fixed it, and the update is fantastic, my phone's never been better.
hi guys, i got a d855 and i have some issues which i think they may be stock rom's bugs and i d like to hear your opinion. I have the latest ota V10h-EUR-XX btw.
1) Every time i restart it appears in the notification panel the "voice mate" shortcut. I remove it using the edit at far right but still it reappears every time i reboot the phone.
2) Sometimes after an unanswered call or message the screen turns on as usual but it doesnt turn off. Ofc i ve selected to shut off at 30 seconds from the settings. Even if i change the settings to like 15 seconds the screen still wont turn off unless i manually lock it. This problem fixes if i restart the phone.
3) Every time i boot my phone i get this message: "unfortunately the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped"
So is there someone else who experiences these kind of issues?
wow, these 3 bugs are new to me. haven't experienced any of those at all.
I'm on V10J global though.
You're having permissions issues.
I'd bet my left testicle that a fresh flash back to stock will fix all 3 of your issues.
+1 on the voice mate .. irritating ~
I've encountered the screen on issue - although not only did the screen stay on after a missed call, the phone also became and remained completely non-responding, no screen input registered. Had to reboot manually. It happened only once in 3 weeks though.
Hi,Guys...
Two days ago I was interested on a thread in Reddit, since it cant be accessed freely in my country so I choose to try it with VPN.
Then I installed alot of VPN apps and I just realized everything was turning ON at the same time and my phone start to laggy then freeze/stuck. Can't do a thing like moving screen or pressing button which force me to restart the phone.
After the phone reboot I uninstalled all of the VPN that I've been downloaded.
Then I look on my screen which is full of dulls cuz of use, so I wiped it with soft cloth (i like shiny screen), since the Ambient Display in ON, the screen was moved along with the wipe process which make the notification tile move up and down and the switch like Wifi,Mobile Data, DnD, etc get pressed randomly many times, then the phone freeze/stuck again.
I rebooted it, and when I'm about to use it like 5-10 seconds it freeze again but this time it had adjacent lines and have color like rainbow (i dont know what it called), and this is the beginning of the problem. It keep happening even now.
I can't use my phone for few minutes. Keep freezing/stuck sometimes it have lines sometimes dont.
Even if after I restart the phone and let it boot to homescreen, sometimes it would restart it by itself.
Is there anyone who ever face this kind of problem? I'm hoping this is not related to the hardware since until now this phone is not officialy released in my country so I dont know where I can bring this phone to get serviced.
Please for anyone who can tell me what to do to help bring my daily phone to be normal again.
Thanks in advanced. And sorry if my english is not that good.
bump. I have the same issue.
