Hello everyone. I'm pretty new to rooting and flashing ROMs and everything. I was playing with my buddy's rooted Incredible (CM 6.0.1) and I was amazed. I just recently rooted my Incredible and flashed a couple different versions of CM with the same outcome. My phone freezes and then reboots randomly after a couple minutes of it being on. I've tried wiping and restoring factory settings, wiping the cache and wiping calvik. I also tried clearing the storage and then flashing the ROM with no luck. Is it possible that CM just doesn't work with my Incredible or is there any possible way to fix the constant reboots? I apologize in advance if this has been covered already. Thanks!
Yes, I had the exact same problems. Impressed with the features, but disappointed with stability. I switched for now to VirtuousROM and have been happy. Also, check forum.cyanogenmod.com. Several people facing the same problem.
Is it just by chance that it's so unstable? My buddy has been running CM 6.0.1 for awhile now with no reboots at all. In any case, thanks for the info. I'll give the cyanogenmod forms a try.
If I recall, CM 6.0.1 had a default overclock of 1.15 which some phones can't handle. But CM 6.0.2 restored default setting to 998 (stock), which should solve the problem!
I tried both CM 6.0.1 and CM 6.0.2 and both had the same results. They both of them did the freeze and reboots over and over again.
I've had great luck with CM nightly builds starting from 9/6 which was released after 6.0.2. I'm currently running the 9/8 nightly. If you decide to try a nightly, do a full wipe first.
Don't feel alone I have struggled with cm as well. Im using. 92 hboot 2.15 radio and still get splash freeze and reboot upon install. I have wiped: data,cache& dalvik...still no success. Any help.would be great. I've tried almost all nightlys rc3 6.0 6 6.1 6.2.

Do I need the sd-ext partition to run CM? When I go to wipe everything it always returns with the message "sd-ext partition does not exist" but it still wipes everything else. If so, how do I go about creating that partition? Thanks for all the help.

You don't need the sd-ext partition. I would download set-cpu, you can find it free on xda, and make sure that it is not overclocking for you.
I purchased set cpu....how would I tell if my cpu is over clocked?
mine is set to 998 max 245 min....still cant install cm6
Has any one found the same install issues as myself.....Ive been trying for at least a month to two months to get cm6. Just tried again tonight got the nightly to work once ...i rebooted and gota stupid bootloop. I tried to install again and just a bootloop this time. Please help!
Hey guys, I had just flashed CM 7.0.3 Stable and now I get a error when trying to turn in my wifi.
When I go to settings and click ti turn on the wifi it stats error below it.
I used logcat to see what was up and it said.
"Wifiservice - Failed to load Driver."
Whats the best way to fix this? Reflash Cyanogen? or do you guys have other suggestions?
Thanks for the help.

Thanks, that worked.
Boy do I feel dumb. I was thinking too complex.
hi guys.
Im having an issue
I changed from stock to rcmix3d rom and it keeps rebooting by itself.
Everything is working fine but the reboot issue is killing me
any help please?
Did you check the MD5 of the ROM before flashing? Does it actually boot so you can use it? Or are you stuck in a bootloop before it actually gets to a point where you can use it?

Do you get any error messages or strange behaviour before it reboots? What apps have you installed if any?
even i had the same issue with rcmix3d ,problem started after i flashed a new radio file though...nothing helped i had to flash a new fom..if by any chance you are running any UV script reset it with reset.zip UV is also known to cause tis issue
I have never had any problems updating roms before and I have been using XenonHD for a long time. I've been trying to update to the 4.2.1 and it will not make it past the boot screen at all. It's driving me crazy! I have soft-bricked this phone 4 times trying this update. The 4.2.1 CyanogenMod 10 - Nightly worked perfectly for me and I don't know what else to try to get this update to work. Anyone else having these issues??
I have the Verizon Galaxy Nexus let me know if any more info is needed.

Chances are it could be a corrupt download. This does happen from time to time. I updated with no problem. I would suggest to redownload the ROM again and then make a nandroid. Then reboot to recovery and do a full wipe of cache system factory and davlik. Do each twice to be sure. Try to re flash again and see what happens. Good Luck.
I'm having some trouble and hopefully someone can help. I broke my nexus 4 and Im back to my s2. I had to replace the digitizer and screen and since then I've had the issue. I never had this issue until recently. The ROM will download fine, but will not install, I'm stuck on Slimrom 3.1.0 official. Some apps won't install or update either. I keep getting error "-24". Anyone have any ideas?

did you fix it? ive had the error 24 problem when restoring app data, that shouldnt affect flashing a new rom -so long as you wipe everything first then reboot recovery- also that should clear the data/data folders
