Got this phone a week ago. Been experiencing random reboots. I tried another battery, but still see the reboots. Anyway to isolate it to determine whether its a hardware or software issue? Thanks

It is most likely a bad kernel. Only time I experienced this. What Rom and kernel do you use?

Are you over clocked/under volted? Are you on a stock rom? That could be a sign of a slightly to high of an overclock/low under volt.

He also has the same idea as me. Mostly due to a bad overclock kernel. Or wrong build kernel used.

Try using Odin to go back to stock. I recommend GB27. See if the issue still occurs, and be mindful of what apps you install. The issue may be an app that you install instead of the OS itself.

I know this is not going to make you feel any better, but I get the random reboots as well with my phone when I use AOSP roms. some people dont have any issues when they flash custom ROMs, some do. It is just the way the E4GT is.
For example, with most ROMS, my GPS works flawlessly even on ROMs that others have issues with. That is the price you pay when you mod your phone. What separates the old-timers from the newbies is that the more experienced know how to deal with those issues, and if they cant deal with them they move to another ROM.
IMO, the reason some phones have no issues and some do is the way we have to unlock the phone and flash ROMs. I see that in most phones, everything is about a one step process, our's is not and anytime you have extra steps involved, there is a chance something doesnt flash right - This is just my idea from my personal experience, I have no technical data to support this
What I have done to decrease the reboots is download Gravity Screen and Screen Off. I noticed that when I used the power button to turn the scree off, the power menu would come up. At this point, if I touched any thing or set it down, it would reboot 50% of the time. Now I dont have to touch any of the buttons to wake or make my screen go off. I had 1 reboot yesterday, a few on Saturday, and none today. See if that helps you any.

I'm not sure if this has happened to anyone else..
However, this seems to be an ongoing issue with me and Android.
I've had the X10a and Nexus One .. both after only rooting it and using a different rom. While making phone calls and charging.. my phone would reboot..
Or playing a game on the phone.. it would reboot. I basically couldn't do anything without the phone rebooting. Which was sad.
Now with the Galaxy S2X.. This very same issue just happened to me moments ago.
Should I have never rooted it or changed the rom in the first place?
It was running very well before I decided to do so.. even while charging and talking on the phone.
Its funny because it just happened while charging.... I'm not even on the phone myself.
Does anyone seem to have any problem with this when using custom ROMs?
Because if this is true.. then I guess I'll flash the stock kernel and stuff back on the phone just to HOPE it doesn't occur then. :/
I've only experienced this after trying different roms and kernels. I flashed the stock kernel and the deodex rooted stock rom back at the same time and have had no such things happen again.
Imo, stock always runs better than any other rom. I always get better battery too.
My sensation was/is the same way, reboots, dropped signals and all until I put it back to stock rooted. Now it's fine.

Deebo took your bike too?
Yes I have had it more often on this phone though but it has been fixed by wiping the proper things first then flashing. If not then you might need to redownload the file.
If that doesnt work then you need to make sure that the kernel you are using is compatible with the rom
Also make sure that you are using the proper cpu software for the kernel.. Setcpu seems to work good for most but on Juggernauts new kernel they highly recommend Fauxclock .
I've run roms and kernels since we got root. Never had a random reboot or any other problem for that matter.

The only thing I'm worried about is if I continue to wipe and reinstall these customs ROM's that this issue could worsen, but you said that Fauxclock was highly recommended for Jug's Rom? I should try that out myself.
I've always done exactly what was written on the Instructions themselves.
But as for now. . I did a full wipe.. including my SD and the USB data and did a practice call for roughly an hour with me playing games and surfing. So far, there has been any problems. I hope this is perm!
I'd hate to waste another $500 phone D:
As far as the problem kernel with rom etc..
I am running Jug's rom straight. No different kernel's nothing.
I just had it happen to me last night. First time on this phone it has happened. It its stock, rooted. Happened while I was paying music in the car. My other phones with custom roms used to do it all the time.
I wonder if this has happened to anyone without ANY mods on their phone? =X

Reviving old thread... I have a completely stock S2X running 4.0.3 and it randomly reboots or shuts itself off.
I'm trying to figure out if it's a wayward app or a hardware problem. Thinking of rooting and removing the bloatware.
I also saw that it could be a faulty power button, but it also happens by itself, sitting on a desk.

I've been experience some rather hard locks on m'phone. I'd wake up, expecting the alarm to go off and noticed that the phone's screen is black and the buttons on the bottom are lit and unresponsive. I'm able to power down the phone and bring it back online after a quick reboot but it doesn't really answer the questions... What's going on with it? and How do I check to see what crashed it?
Are there any programs/apps out there to see what's crashing the phone... I tried some log readers however, they seem to only read what's going on in real time or the logs that are there during that boot, not past logs.
Any information would be wonderful. Thanks in advance!

It sounds like the issue you are having is "sleep death". By any chance, have you messed around with the performance settings with your phone? That is most often the cause.

I haven't played with any settings. They are all stock settings... I generally don't mess with them for a while to see if they are even needed in a new rom.

Try flashing an alternative kernel and see if that resolves the issue. The reason that happens is that if the governors/schedulers are not working properly, the phone will tend to stay on it's lowest voltage when not in use which causes the phone to not be responsive.

I could definitely give that a try and see if the group I got this one from, has pushed out a 10.1 rom yet.
I had this problem before a few weeks ago, but a full boot.img stock reversion fixed things and I unrooted (then re-rooted) and installed the PACman ROM with the AK Kernel. Everything was fine until a few weeks later it started to lag really bad again. I'm talking the screen would hang for 5-10 seconds or just freeze completely. Earlier today I had to pull my battery about 3 times because of the freezes. I tried to install a new kernel a week ago, but that made it worse.
Why does it keep doing thing. I love the custom ROMs and the kernel tweaks, but I won't be able to use them if I go to stock...

You interpreted the symptoms yourself rather than just report the issue and what software combination is resulting in the issue. Its lagging but why is it lagging? "Lag" isn't a symptom its a result of something else going on deeper down.

I'm sorry, man. I didn't realize I had to report the issues exactly as I know them. I totally wouldn't resolve the problem myself if I knew what it was.

Diagnosing problems you don't understand is exactly the kind of thing that makes it impossible to help someone. The phone may be right in front of you and you may know what you did but so far all you've done is tell us that:
1. Your phone lags
2. You tried a different kernel
3. You've pulled the battery
Not much to work with is it?
What CPU settings are you using?

I don't know. Turning the phone on takes about 3 seconds, same with turning it off. After unlocking, it hangs for about 4 seconds. Opening Chrome takes 5-10 seconds. Pressing the home button while on any app takes 5 seconds before it gives a response.
Don't say those are regular waiting times either, before I had these problems, things would appear at the touch of a button.
I also forgot to mention that a fresh ROM install doesn't help.

"Fresh ROM install" as in you're just wiping cache and data then reinstalling?

I think that space is an issue. I've read that once you get below 3 or 4 gigs free, the lag begins. Supposedly, on any disk, you should keep about 20% free, which for a 16gb gnex is 3.2gig.
Edit: isn't 180ghz min pretty low? I've seen 384 as a min suggested if lagging is an issue. And i think you mean mhz.

This is why they shouldn't have gotten rid of SD cards...
I'll see if clearing out my HDD space does anything. I've had it that full for quite some time though...
I'll see if putting 384 as min fizes it.
Your device also might not be able to handle 1.4 GHz oc. While its originally a 1.5ghz processor mild imperfections in the manufacturing process result in it being sold as a (guaranteed safe at) 1.2ghz processor.
What that means is that not every phone will handle the same speeds, voltages etc. You should try running at stock speeds for testing purposes.
I have this same issue, I've tried a number of different ROMs and kernals. They all start out great, then after about a month my phone starts to get random lag, then as time goes on it gets worse and worse until I bite the bullet and start over 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.
Hi, what's your eMMC version? Maybe buggy memory, try looking at other threads.

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.

Well, I am planning to root again. I want to switch back to CyanogenMod 10.1. Lagfix app isn't needed if you can use -discard mount option right? How to use either, if let's say I'm on CyanogenMod. This is also the first time I hear of lagfix and discard mount... :/
Btw, the app i used to check my eMMC Type said that my chip is ok. No brickbug. Are you sure it's buggy?

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
plus.google.com/113601948978986762347/posts/2ALASEC1dG2
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.

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?

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.

I'm running liquid smooth ver 2.9 and the kt747 kernel aosp jb mr1 3.4 and have a problem when I set it to apply settings on boot. It will apply them and then freeze and restart the phone and repeats this process. When it does this I cannot get into recovery mode or download mode with the hardware keys as pulling the batter and attempting to enter recovery on lights the screen then vibrates and shuts off. Luckily I have a quick button for recovery mode on my desktop that i can use before the settings can apply and freeze the phone or I'd be screwed. Do I need to be using a different version of either of these softwares? I've heard the kt747 is hands down the smoothest kernel but I have not had much luck so far. I do not have any other CPU apps to set on boot and yet this problem persists. I've tried reflashing the kernel, wiping cash, dalvik,and permissions with no luck. Even a factory reset, reflashed rom and kernel has headed the same results. My phone does not have the insane chipset either so it's not the sudden death issue I'm seeing of any sort.
Thank for any help or suggestions in advance ..
All ROMs and kernels and any combination of both have varying results. What runs great on my phone might not on yours, and vice versa... I prefer the stock kernel that comes with whatever ROM I'm currently running, as I usually get the best battery life... U just have to find what's good for u...
I'm still relatively new to android but I do a lot of research before I do anything. I just thought that maybe it was the same for all galaxy s3 phones because they have the same hardware

Same hardware yes, but results will vary. Could also depend on your settings. Are you overclocking, or undervolting? Maybe it's too much?
