I use paranoid android 2.99 and Trinity a4, sometime when i didn't use my phone and i lock the screen, and i wanna turn it on again, the phone won't response. The only way that i can turn it on is by pulling the battery out, i can't help but wonder Ida's it a hardware or software issue?

Have you tinkered with kernel settings? Lowered voltages? Changed governors?
Have you tried a different kernel?

nope, I'm too scared to do that, i just change the screen color, besides, i have already uninstalled it, it's too risky i don't wanna mess up with my gnex
Go back to stock. If it still does "whatever", then it's hardware, most likely. Common sense.

maybe try default setting for the screen.
Trinity a4 has sod issues. I didnt have any but many did. Your phone is fine (most likely) just flash another rom or kernel.
Change kernel.

I have a similar problem with stock 4.2. Sometimes the screen goes blank (like a dark Grey back light), the phone is still on, but I can't get into it anymore. It registers touches etc, just the screen doesn't get back.
Flashed clean stock Image, factory reset and data restore.
Only battery pull helps. Happens 1 or 2 times per day in various situations (texting, browsing, whatsapp). Luckily I don't have any of the other 4.2 problems.

i have exactly the same problem... now im on cm10 and it happen less than before, but the issue is still there..
when did your problem start?
i dont know if it is a hardware or software issue, because with some stock roms happen a lot more than with some custom roms.
is there any difference between flashing using toolkit or odin?? if i wanna go back to stock, but i mean totally stock, toolkit or odin are exactly the same??
btw, this freeze that for some people happen "only" when the phone is in lockscreen it's exactly the same issue of the blank screen, the only difference is that you haven't had the the crash in your face XD... but it is the same.
I had it since 4.2. Also the occasional reboot. Before my Nexus never rebooted or locked on its own since March this year.

Hi All,
I've been able to successfully install many of the ICS roms that are out there. However my problem isn't with the home button, search, data or echos. Whenever my screen times the phone just reboots itself and continues to do so. If I lock the screen myself the same situation happens. I've properly wiped before installing data>cache>delvik>superwipe>kernel cleanse>install>fix permissions>reboot>10min wait and reboot. If tried going back in and fixing permissions too, but nothing seems to fix this issue. The only solution around is keeping the screen on full time or if I leave it plugged in, then the screen can lock without rebooting.
Any suggestions? Currently running IML74K_Ics_Perfection
Did you try under clocking or undervolting
?

I have not. Though i thought it might get too low during idle causing it to power down
If it does get too low then bump it up a bit and see what happens. If not then I'm stumped. In all honesty I would simply go back to gb. ICS has just to many bugs for me to bare. Really you're not missing out on much besides multitasking and chrome perhaps.

Hi all,
I have a fairly frequent issue with my Glide Captivate. Unfortunately too frequently, when I turn it on, the network is disabled (O with slash through it), most widgets say "Loading Widget..." the slide down status menu shows nothing (well except the Wifi / BT / GPS toggles.) and "USB Connected" if it is. Nothing else. The phone gets incredibly hot, and near as I can tell sucks the battery. The screen often won't unlock - it will just light up the 4 soft buttons on the bottom (menu, home, etc). When I CAN get on it, I get frequent "Sorry! Process system is not respoding"
Attempting to go through System / Manage Applications - usually about a minute in the screen will blank for a minute then go back to the lock screen.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Try re flashing the rom, if you're using one. If you're not using a rom, and it's not rooted, try restoring it?

Stock rom, it is rooted. Unfortunately, restoring it is the fix - like every week
Could be a hardware issue if you have a warrenty i would complain and try and get a new one which means you need to flash a non rooted stock rom i dont know if you can do this ive never had to remove root

Hey i had the same issue for months with my glide. I bought it outright from rogers and was just running it stock. Drove me nuts exchanged the phone 3 times. Finally narrowed it down to the media scanner/sd card issue. The scanner would run a few times and then reboot the phone. I tried booting it without the sd card in and booted up fine. Tried a dew diff sd cards and seem to have found one that works, but it would happen once every few weeks for me. Ive looked it up on the forums its that common problem with samsung phones. Pain in the butt. Cant remember if you said you were rooted id recommend trying that im too chicken myself. Happens on my sgs2 also.

I have also this issue once in a while, its very annoying, I think that if we could have a AOSP rom that would fix it since samsung polluted their rom so much. Maybe if we get lucky, with the ICS/JB update that issue will be gone. I have also another issue, the phone randomly turns "off" and becomes really hot, it depends on how long it takes for me to realize, but most of the time, it has drained my battery to near death. I don't think those are hardware related issues, but more on the software side since its not AOSP.
Does the temperature rise when it's charging? Because that happens to my phone too. If you have the voltage control, try lowering the max cpu use to lower the temperature a little bit.

I am not new to android by any means, but this weird issue has stumped me. When my GNex (toroplus) is stock unrooted with bootloader locked, the phone is very stable, no reboots. Once I unlock bootloader, root and install either CWM or TRWP, I will begin to have random reboots even on the stock rom/kernel. The reboots mostly happen when arriving back to my house after classes (very poor reception at my house if that matters), or just when I'm out and about with the phone in my pocket.
I've looked at the last_kmsg, and it shows "Boot info: Last reset was MPU Watchdog Timer reset". A google search gave me some direction that it is not a kernel issue, but I didn't find anything really definitive on what would cause it. I would love to get to the bottom of this as this issue is really bugging me. I've rooted with both the Nexus Root Toolkit by WugFresh (which worked great for my N7), and the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit by MSkip, both with the same result. Reboots. I've used both the FC12 radios and the FD02 radios, same result. I've tried with both CWM and TWRP recoveries, same result. If anybody has any input I would absolutely love to hear it. Thanks in advance
Well, it just happened while completely stock unrooted and locked. Guess I'll have to get a replacement. Anyone know if Sprint will replace it under warranty?

Your post count indicates you have at least been active in XDA for awhile- So that I don't sound condescending, I would do a fresh backup and wipe the phone completely and see what happens after re-setting it up (I wouldn't use TiBu or ROM Toolbox Pro to restore apps, just let em download from Google Play). If that corrects the issue, you just had a snag with an app somewhere or a system file, if not then you might have bad hardware, but unlikely since it worked before you were rooted. I've had this happen so many times, it usually is because of a dirty flash, restored apps or apps and data. Try using a different Custom Recovery as well. I prefer TWRP over CWM (much fewer problems with ICS and JB).
Forgot to say, that if you haven't upgraded the bootloader to JB bootloader, this causes problems too.

Possibly similar issue here. Using toro and getting random reboots, typically in low signal situations. I work near the Canadian border where I'm often picking up Verizon international and flipping back to U.S. signal. Periodically the X boot animation shows and does a reboot. Usually associated with a data transfer of some type. I am not rooted and these began while locked, using stock mysid 4.1.1. Tried flashing radios, boot.img, and bootloader, and after 98 hours of uptime it rebooted. Planing to flash the system image next and see if there are some bad bits in there. If no success calling Verizon for a replacement since I'm not a full year into this phone.
Love to know if you find any other solutions for this.

I have been suspecting a radio issue too, because if I recall correctly the toro on ICS had issues with no reception/reboot. I ended up taking my phone to Sprint, and of course could not replicate the issue so they did the standard factory reset and update profile + prl (which of course I've done), and possibly a few other things. Now for some reason it has been up for about 20 hours in low/no signal situations and around town, where it would normally have rebooted at least once, usually a few times. I'm going to keep letting it ride stock and locked for today as well, and if it doesn't reboot today I will be tempted to say whatever they did fixed it (which is hard for me to admit).
Likely a system.img issue. I reflashed the stock system partition not once but three times this morning, doing a fastboot reboot (back to bootloader) between each flash. I no longer have the Google boot logo sitting there for several minutes before seeing the boot animation, and the total boot takes less than a minute. Something must have been retained during an OTA flash or a factory image flash. I'll see if it does any random reboots over the next several days, but thinking this might be the fix. System is a bit snappier also.

I stand corrected. Definitely a radio issue. All was well until we were in a few stores where there is no signal. Upon arrival back home I woke up the phone and then set it down to let the dogs in. Picked it up and there screen wouldn't turn on, though I could hear my words with friends tiles shuffling. Soon enough the X boot animation showed. Not a full reboot, as the uptime didn't change. Only been occurring since 4.1.1, so thinking 4.1.2 or better may have a fix. Toro and toro plus ate similar enough due to the hybrid CDMA/LTE configuration that I would expect this issue on both.
My biggest issue with this is the media scanner running down the battery at reboot.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
The weird thing is that after the sprint store did what they did my phone was up for over 60 hours in no signal areas and traveling to a different state (where I would surely normally get a few reboots). I decided to root again, and after rooting I began to get the frequent reboots again. They always seem to happen when the phone is either in my pocket or when there is poor reception, or both. I've tried different roms, rooting processes, and it just seems while rooted, I am plagued with these reboots. Unfortunately as well, the sprint store wouldn't do anything for me unless they could recreate the issue in store

I haven't changed my prl (at least not manually), and never rooted. But now WiFi and location services may be somehow related. My wife's nexus did a soft reboot yesterday while she was taking a series of photos at home while connected to WiFi (we have Dropbox set to auto upload on WiFi). Most of my reboots happen shortly after arriving home and reconnecting to WiFi. And our home picks up LTE from a nearby locale due to our elevation-me thinks the location services are getting all screwed up and the default correction is to restart. In some ways I feel better knowing it's not a full reboot back top the Google boot screen, but would like to nail down the issue while waiting for the 4.1.2(or even 4.2) update to roll out.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium
I'm at my home now for thanksgiving break so I am going to unroot completely again and see if I get reboots in the basement where reception is non existent. If so I am going to try to get a replacement at my local store where they know me. It doesn't seem like a widespread issue, but it is odd that you get it too.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app

I've been having gn2 from at&t for about 2 months. It's awesome in most respects but it sometimes locks up cold. By cold, I mean that the only way to fix it is to pull out battery for some extended time - 5-10 min. Usually it happens when I use some software, typically accessing network. Just now it happened when I used Chrome beta.
Also it happens sometimes after graceful shutdown that it locks up immediatelly on boot.
Seems to happen with any rom that I tried.
Does anyone else have similar problems? I wonder if it's hardware defect.

I was experiencing lock ups on earlier 7105 ROMs I was using. I thought power cycling was the only way then I discovered if you take out the S-pen (and then put it back) it would unfreeze the device. Maybe give that a shot next time, in case its similar.
Mine would freeze randomly...

I had this problem on my SII.
My girl had this problem as well. To remedy it first I wiped the external sd card. Wiped everything off of it incase of some bs data.
Then I wiped and re flashed the rom and only restored mms and the call log with tibu. The rest of the apps she had I manually installed them one by one from the market.
Now doing the above two cleaned up a lot of lockups but it was still happening. Final thing that actually stopped the freezes was getting rid of Chrome. Why was Chrome causing issues, I have no idea but after removal the phone never randomly rebooted and after getting use to the stock browser it's been smooth sailing.

Chrome definitely may be a culprit. It happened to me often when using it. What is interesting is that it wouldn't reboot unless battery is out for few minutes. It feels like some memory state , perhaps in modem, gets corrupted and isn't cleared during boot.
And it was happening at times with freshly flashed rom with full wipe.
I have this issue too. I know for sure it is ROM or Kernel related as it never does it if I revert back to stock ROM and Kernel. Mine seems to be in a really deep sleep when it happens. I hold the power button for about 15 seconds and the phone reboots and everything is fine for a few days again.
Hi,
History:
I have a problem with my Nexus. It randomly reboots. Nothing seems to help.
It started after a few months after I was rooted on CyanogenMod 10.0. In 3 days, it quickly escalated to a reboot every 10 minutes on average.
A factory reset (without user apps installed on it) on CynogenMod reduced the frequency (every hour?), but didn't eliminate it.
Unrooting to stock Jellybean 4.1.2 seemed fine only in the first week. The problem came back afterwards, and updating to JB 4.2.1 didn't help.
Now, 2 months on stock ROM, I get even more random times. Sometimes it is 2 times a day, sometimes once a week.
Just before it:
I get a metallic screeching noise for 1-2 seconds, and immediately following that, device turns off with a "pang". Although these days I HAVE had situations that the sound came for up to 3 seconds (and the screen freezes), but the phone worked normally afterwards.
What happens:
It randomly reboots. The rebooting is at irregular intervals, whatever i was doing on it (even when not using it).
What happens after:
It takes much, much longer to startup again. It can get stuck at the "Google" logo screen for up to 5min. It doesn't take this long to reboot if I shut it down myself.
Any ideas? What causes this? Is it software or hardware?
Can I even send it for warranty if I cannot reproduce the problem?
I don't want to send it to warranty if I don't have to. I don't want to loose my phone for I don't know how long.

I'm new to this eMMC thing, but according to an app my eMMC Type is V3U00M. To check whether it is buggy or not it needs root, which I don't currently have. If it IS buggy, I don't have a choice but to bring it for warranty right?
No, I have not tried to changed batteries. I don't have other batteries. But can the problem really lie with the battery? Btw, my phone is less than 8 months old.

I might be wrong here, but from what I've read at the link and other xda posts (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2029246), the V3U00M chip is not buggy (in the sense that it's stable for rooting and using the -discard command), but it does give slowdowns. I do have horrible slowdowns, so thanks for that solution I didn't know existed. However, this doesn't solve my random reboot problem at all...
No one else got any solid way to find out the source of the problem?

Same as you man...
I'm seriously considering throwing my phone to the garbage. I don't like iPhones, but google is really pushing me into it with this crappy piece of phone. Is so frustrating to have these rebooting issues, I've tried everything, from wipe to factory reset, back to stock, flash custom ROMS and KERNELS, turning location access off, uninstalling all apps/widgets that might interfere, and every single "solution" it's out there, and STILL I'M HAVING THESE DAMN REBOOTS!
Now it's even worse, I can't even transfer files to my phone anymore because, guess what... IT REBOOTS! everytime I transfer ANY KIND of file.
The only thing that seems to work for a while is reformatting and start from scratch. I've done that like 3 times already. But still after a few weeks the issue reapears... i'm really mad about this, and no one seems to care. Not Google and not even Samsung.
The only interesting thing that i found around the internet is this guy's findings

I read the log on my phone and matches to his... but now the thing is, what do i do with this information? I'm not a programmer o something like that.
Any ideas?
I think your board is faulty. Even so, have you tried disabling SR and raising voltages across the board? Trimming eMMC? Omapflash?

He is saying that you have root you need to install trickster mod from the play store. Open the app and go to specific. Then disable the smart reflex toggles and click the oké button in the upper right corner see if that works. If it doesnt re enable smart reflex and go tot MPU voltages. Next to the words MPU voltages there is a blue plus/minus button. Click that and click the plus one time. Accept it and push again the oke button. The other two things I dont exactly know..

Honestly, if you are getting reboots on a clean stock (including stock kernel) , it's probably a hardware issue.

I tried both things you mentioned with no luck
I'm still searching around for those other things beekay201 mentioned earlier. I found that Omap Flash is a tool for flash roms in binary mode, so that way you can unbrick some phones. Still trying to find out how that can be useful for my case (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242330)

The thing is that after a clean stock install everything works fine for a week or two, that means no random reboots, and i can transfer any kind of file of any size with no problem. Then for some estrange reason (even with no crazy apps installed) starts with a random reboot, after that first reboot i know is time and that i wont be able to transfer files anymore, because it WILL reboot while i'm transfering files. Other thing i have noticed is that around where the camera lens is, get really hot. So I think that the reason it reboots is kernel panic caused by overheating, or the other thing is that my sdcard have some issues when writing files.
Right now i'm using CyanogenMod 10.0.0-maguro with jelly bean 4.1.2 and franco.kernel 3.0.51-nightly-512GPU and i have already tried going back to stock.
how can a I check if my hardware is fine? Is there any app out there?
Thanks!

512GPU? You mean your GPU is overclocked? Maybe try to set your GPU to stock. And if it gets really hot and you have random reboots you can try to over volt with trickster mod.

No, I don't think my GPU is overclocked, that's the full name of the kernel, you say that the kernel automatically puts my GPU to 512?. Anyways i just installed that kernel two days ago just because i thought it might make the reboots go away. I'm having rebooting problems since february (just after upgrading to 4.2.1), so i don't think that the GPU is causing the reboots.

Well if it keeps rebooting you can try to over volt. Maybe that helps.
