I've had my phone for about six months. Overall i'm happy with it.
But since a couple of months, the phone is rebooting for no reason at all.
it reboots (most of the times) when
- my phone rings
- i get a text message
- when it is set to vibrate and i get a phone call
- in the middel of a conversation
- i do nothing. The phone is just on my desk and i see it rebooting
I sent it for repair once. But nothing changed.
Now i hoped by upgrading to 6.1 the problem would be solved. But it's not. However, there seems to be error reporting in 6.1
Last time it rebooted i got the message there was a problem with quickdial.exe
All i can find on google is that it has something to do with TouchFlo. How can i turn quickdial off and what does it do?
Sounds like a call to customer service waiting to happen

This just started happening and I was wondering if it was just me. I have had my VZ TP2 for several months now and always get email and txt notification with a short vibration as per my settings.
Recently, I have noticed that the vibration notice seems to be getting longer.. Normally it vibrates for about 1 second when I get a notification. But now it seems to vibrate for 2 and 3 times that length. Earlier this morning I received an email and it vibrated for a good 5 seconds.
It seems to come and go - any thoughts?
It happens with my verizon touch pro 2 also. It also happened with my xv6800. I think it is a windows mobile problem.
In general section I remember saw a thread for modifying vibration patterns
Hope that helps
I have been having a similar issue. I have phoneweaver, I noticed when it is set to vibrate it gives me quick little vibrations, but when just set to normal i get the long. It is really annoying because when i get a call i have to answer and then wait for the vibrations to stop. I have been looking for an app that might fix this.
Anyone have a clue, I have done some searching but have turned up nothing useful.
worked on my TP2

I have SPRINT TP2 and I also have had problems with the vibrations. It is only with SMS. I have had the phone vibrate for over 1 minute until the phone it self rebooted. This has happened a few times since January. It had not happened bofore that. I have the stock SPRINT ROM on my phone.
Hello,
Sorry to post this here. I've been following a few threads about x10 mini pro custom roms for weeks now but after signing up I am not allowed to ask my question to that specific rom there. It said I should post it here first.
I am using the [ROM]MiniCM7 Pro - V7x - GingerBread (2.3.5) by paul-xxx for more than 2 weeks now and it works great, I even have a battery life of about 14 hours now instead of 6 after I stopped using launcher pro and used the standard adw.
But I have 2 serious problems.
The first is that I cannot always unlock my phone. I know I have seen this question a lot but in my case the screen just stays black. There is no slider that does not want to slide. Just a black screen. If I slide open the keyboard I see the lights go on some times. When I connect via usb I can open a shell (via putty) and every thing seems up and running. Just the display is now showing anything.
When pushing buttons and sliding the keyboard several times I sometimes get the screenback. Some times just have to wait 5 minutes or so.
Does anyone have any clue what to do about this?
I tried killing the launcher process but that did not help, it just restarts and even if it did help I do not always have the phone connected to usb.
The other question is about missing calls. I had several missed call alerts while i was sure I was next to the phone all day.
Today I saw it happening for the first time. (because I got a missed call sms and right after that a call on the land line which was the same person who called my cell)
So I called my phone (after letting it go to sleep), used top to see whats going on. I saw the process android.phone.com starting to use more cpu (but not 100%) and I even saw the screen get activated (after 10 seconds or so) but no sound and then it went to voicemail and the phone went dark again but the sms with the missed call came in right away.
Is there a solution to this or are there more people have problems with this?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Hi,
I have quite a weird problem...
I have to pop out the battery to restart the phone nearly every day.
The screen just blacks totally out and the phone will not respond to anything.
The phone is not dead, I know this because I can hear messages and incoming calls but I cannot do anything about it since the screen is all black (turned off).
Experience? Workaround? Advice?
Update: The screen actually wakes up to show me the phone call or the message, but I cannot do anything about it. So it seems rather that some services on the phone is stuck and, as said, only way to get the phone working again is to reboot by taking the battery.
I came across the same problem and I wasn't able to fix it till now.
I did a full-wipe two times and restored only the basic apps.
I have no idea anymore.
"adb reboot" is an alternative solution.
Hi,
I experienced for the second time some strange incident on my OP Nord (eu). When I looked on my phone it had this OP Bootupscreen with the one red and two white moving Dots but it didnt start up. The dots where moving for about 15 minutes. I had to press Vol up + on/off button to shut down the Phone and then Start it again to get it up and running again.
The first Time I was in the Car listening to some music. The Phone was via BT to the Car Radio connected and played Music with the app Musicolet. After a short stop at a store it didnt connect again with the radio. I had a look on the Nord and saw this issue the first time.
The second time, I used it with some messaging apps, placed it on my desk, wanted to use it around 10 minutes later again and had this Bootup Failure a second time.
Had anybody of you some simlar Problem? Or maybe an Idea what could be wrong?
The Nord is not rooted or manipulated in any other way. Just standard Phone with the Latest OP Updates installed.
Kind Regards
Yes I had the same problem. I had to use Vol up + on/off button aswell, but it worked again after that. I just had it in my pocket and didnt do anything and when I put it out of my pocket I had the bootlogo as well. Strangely I had this also the second time as you said.
Random reboot force restart
Same to me 12gb version about 5th time now this has happened.. As other members say. You only notice it if your looking for at the screen. Had to do same it booted up into safe mode 1st. Have have seen on the Oneplus forums that some phone auto goto factory reset lucky that hasn't done that for me. However it does make you choose your default Internet search engine each time and my Google one account resets again... Anyone any idea of the cause any Dev / programmer's on here know the cause yet. As you all say its random done it to me while in pocket car and work desk.. Bloody annoying
Yes! Same problem here.
Strange auto reboot and gets stuck after connecting bluetooth sometimes, or while just simply decreasing volume . Screen goes unresponsive many times while using Google chrome and handling media on whatsapp. Mobile data and wifi would take 10-20 secs to turn on sometimes, don't know why!
DAMN! THIS PHONE HAS A TON OF BUGS THAT INTERFERE WITH DAY-TO-DAY TASKS!
Happened to me once too
Happened to me too a couple of times on EU firmware.
On the forum it's been madness with this , they issued a statement that they are full on it . But there were some users suggesting that it was caused by the forgot password option , and if pattern was used there was no problem. This though , was not confirmed. I have the phone about a week , i've been using pattern since my first android . Nothing has happened to me . Did anyone of you use pattern ? Or everyone had a password/ PIN ? If so , try using pattern lock to see if it happens again...maybe it could be a chance to pinpoint the root of it and save other users...
It happened 2 times when I used face unlock. I stopped using a locking method and no random reboots since, but there was also updates recently so dunno...
Happened twice
Hi All,
I've had the phone about 8 months, UK model.
About 2 months ago, when scrolling in Wikipedia pages on Chrome browser, the display would alternate between normal and blue light (eye comfort). It still does occasionally.
From a few weeks ago, the keyboard sometimes take about 10s to appear.
A few days ago when on voice call from the phone other person can't hear me but I can them while voice call on Whatsapp is fine both ways. Restarting phone seems to solved it for now.
Then yesterday while trying to access settings from either the home screen or app drawer, it fails but you can see its attempting to as you see the settings screen momentarily then a message comes up saying settings failed to start several times and whether to restore by clearing history. Doing that doesn't work. The only way that I can is to touch and hold the settings icon till the search option comes up and then type the particular setting I want.
Before I do anything to fix this, are these symptoms an indication the phone is on the way to a complete breakdown? Would it be a software problem and I suppose the 1st step to fix is factory reset.
Has anyone experience this on their phone?

Unfortunately it's the Oppo software that causes these issues... We hope we can unlock the bootloader soon and flash custom roms to remedy these problems since Oppo are just incompetent.
Chrome colour shift is fixed by typing into your chrome address bar and type: "chrome://flags" then search "Dynamic Color Gamut" and set it to disabled (or it was enabled, I forget since I didn't have the issue myself)
Oppo uses the wrong microphone on third party apps like whatsapp, signal, instagram etc. and we have to wait for an update to fix that. (Issue has been posted here before)
The rest of the issues you described sound like some software instability caused by the Android 11 update. You should save your data and do a factory reset.
If the issues persist after the reset and you didn't install any dodgy apps or modified the software using adb then consider sending the phone in for repair.
OK thanks for replies. So factory reset then...
