I suffered a factory reset! - T-Mobile LG G2x

Damn this thing is buggy as hell. Can't wait for CM7 to be stable and useable, I really hope it kills all the bugs.
Yesterday i suffering from awful lag and unresponsiveness for some reason, I tried a shutdown, and it hung forever at the Goodbye screen. I did a battery pull, and when I booted up again it gave me a "Checking system settings...." message at the LG screen I had never seen before. After 10 minutes it booted up completely factory reset !
I was running stock ROM, rooted with the pre-dexopt patch.
So for next few days I'm just going to run the stock ROM rooted but without any apps or pre-dexopt patch just to see how it behaves.
This is definitely not as solid as my Nexus One, starting to wonder if I should have just gotten the Nexus S instead.

thats weird. yesterday morning i did a reboot with stock rom, and it showed me the same thing at start, but i guess it didnt feel the need to torture me because it just booted up like normal after that

Did you hold volume down while rebooting? That is what the stock recovery does.

I have had the phone for 1.5 weeks and it has froze or rebooted itself about 10 times.
Oh, and I am one of the ones with poor battery life also.

Nope i didn't. That's the strange thing.

This also happened to me. After outputting video to my tv, phone became laggy and shut it down. Turned on the phone without holding down any of the vol buttons and it said "system checking". Now it's stuck in a boot loop. Returning phone; this is my second phone. LG does not have great quality control.

The same thing happened to me. I turned the phone off and then turned it on and it reset itself. I started a thread on the LG forum about it.

Well there's your variable. Did you not see all the bugs popping up in that thread?.. Sure it certainly may not be that but to claim that the phone itself is buggy when there is clearly an outside variable affecting your system.
I more than less think that with all the bugs the g2x has straight from the box, what the pre-dexopt "patched" could very well be something LG was trying to cover up. Opening the floodgate to further problems (as reported in the pre-dexopt thread).

I just had a reboot and this time it gave me factory reset on my widgets....

I had similar problems when I got my G2X, but installed LauncherPro, made it the default launcher, and Bingo, lagging and freezing gone. No problems since. Good Luck.

Maybe some peoples reboots are on accident

Yesterday while toggling airplane mode I got a reboot. First yet and it was on gingerbread..i just had another one while accident pressing power for too long..
the phone reboots just holding power even if the screen is off. Maybe just maybe this button is getting pressed for too long I their pockets or just pressing power to toggle airplane mode and its rebooting. Or maybe something with this function bugging out...
Anyone else notice phone reboots just holding power for too long?
Edit:Im almost positive this is what caused my reboots
My phone was on the charger last night only for me wake up and it was off. Full battery when I powered it on.
Doubt its being turned off my accident.

As I said, some people.. Maybe some is legit but others are this issue..
Or like I said, something related to that. Maybe bugging out or something.. Just seems weird that holding power causes a reboot.
A lot of my reboots were spontaneous when I wasn't even touching the phone. Also when it was charging overnight.

Maybe somehow the phone off has a bug thinking the power button is being held in or just that function bugging out when the phone is off...
Dont know just a thought.but I'm positive this rebooted mine.
Definitively not by accident!! And the damn thing reboots by itself every 5mn for a few times while I was watching it doing that while plugged in, then turns off by itself in the middle oh the night, I'm getting another one, and another one until I get a working one with no light bleed. I'll receive my 3rd one in a few days.

Mine just did it again. I didn't have the problem on the stock rom, CM7, EaglesBlood or any other rom aside from the unofficial Gingerbread leak.
The rom itself it very nice considering CM7 has weird issues of its own, but resetting/locking up is a big no-no.
As I said earlier my phone was off this morning after flashing the leaked rom last night. I wiped several times this morning, flashed Eaglesblood, wiped again, and again, flashed the leaked Gingerbread, wiped and wiped again.
Set the phone up but didn't install any apps (testing). Cooked breakfast; fine, watched a TV show; fine, took a shower; fine, got dressed; fine, stepped outside for a second; locked up.
The phone was on because when I pressed the power button the touch panel lit up. The lockscreen showed for a second then went out. Then it was unresponsive. I held the power button down for a few seconds, which turned the phone off, then held it again to turn it back on.
Sucks. Must be the rom. Weird why the stock didn't do it, nor others. Others are claiming theirs are fine.
It is SO weird how these problems aren't across the board and are so random. Everything points to a kernel which wasn't included in the lacked build. Hopefully when the official one comes out, we'll get an updated kernel to go with it.
I think it's the overheating problem. My first phone was very hot and had 3 reboots in 5 days. New one I have has no reboot yet and doesn't get as hot like the other one. PCs get BSOD or freezing when overheating. G2X gets Black Screen of Death and freezing.

This could very well be. especially since a lot of people have reboots when charging and that generally makes the phones temp higher...
Luckily I'm good...
If I had the rebooting problem, I would definitely exchange my device. I haven't had any reboots or freezes though.

U could be right but my phone shuts down a few times right after charging. But then for the rest of the night it won't shut down anymore. Sometimes it shuts down in the middle of the night too, it's very randomly. How do u explain that?

Random Reboots

I've been using my SR for a week now and initially I had QuickWiz ROM installed but after getting some SOD, I switched to TPC ROM which worked great for few days as well but lately I have started getting random reboots that I have not been able to pinpoint the cause for.
I reinstalled TPC rom and then immediately got a reboot. After restarting the phone, it worked for few mins and then rebooted again. At this point, I reinstalled QuickWiz and just within an hour, I have already gotten two reboots.
Any suggestion what might be causing it? Could it be hardware related?
You might try flashing the stock 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 ROM and KERNEL and see if random reboot problem goes away... then you'll know it's not a hardware issue. Check the Development section and read carefully... probably need to clear cache/data multiple times.

I ODIN back to stock yesterday and everything worked for until today when I got the reboot when opening email which leads me to believe that there is a hardware problem somewhere. I have already gone through three different ROMS (including stock) and I always get random reboots sooner or later.
So do you now have 3e recovery... or is CWM Recovery still your recovery partition? From what I've read, you need to clear data and clear cache up to 3 times each from 3e recovery.

I had the same problem and was really confused and then I think I figured the problem out. Do you have one of those thin leather mobile phone cases that attach to your belt? I notice when I put my brand new SR in my case that I purchase that when it moves even just a little bit it will push down on my power button and shut it off and back on. Is there any chance that is happening. I know it sounds stupid but I does happen to me.

Nope, that was not the case because my phone was rebooting either when I was on call or even when it was just sitting on the table.
I had two reboots last night. Both times, I was On the phone using headphones and phone was plugged into a charger.
It seems to reboot if It's plugged in and am on the phone at the same time. It does get pretty warm.
WTF.
I have been having the same issue with my Skyrocket. I am also using TPC v3 ROM, haven't tried to put the stock rom yet, but one thing for sure that this problem is not persistent.
When this problem start, my phone keep restarting for at least 5-10 times and it doesn't allow you to do anything in between. Once it starts working you won't see the booting issue again.

Frequent Reboots. Please Help

I have been using Cyanogen for at least the past year. In the past I have had trouble with things like random reboots, maps crashing during navigation, etc. Because of this I switched to just running the milestone releases for the past six months or so, and that has worked reasonably well. Its still way buggier than stock, but I put up with it for all of the nice features and what not.
Lately though reboots have become more and more frequent even though I hadn't changed anything. I had been running M9 for the past month with no real problems and then last night it decided to just go into a boot loop. I tried pulling the battery, clearing the cache, clearing dalvik, nothing worked. Eventually I just let the thing boot loop all night long and when I woke up it was finally booted.
Then this afternoon it did it again for a short period of time (3 or 4 minutes). When it came out I decided to download the newest, M10. It took several tries to actually flash it because the phone would reboot iself while in the middle of the wipe, or the flash, etc. But I started the wipe/flash process from the beginning every time to make sure I had a clean flash and eventually I got all the way through. But now it is at a point where it will boot, sit there for 2 or 3 minutes (I don't even touch it), and then reboot.
I'm hoping someone can help. I'm holding onto my unlimited data for dear life... I don't want to have to get a new phone. But re-flashing doesn't fix the problem so I really don't know what to do.

I don't know why your having such an issue with cm. Which is odd because I'm running a rom that's CM based and works fine. I'd say maybe try another rom if for nothing other than to see if CM is truly the issue.
I praise you for having the unlimited data still, I wish I would be been smarter and kept mine because there are months where I'm a little too close to that sad but lack of data with 2gb
And my hometown is Syracuse NY as I see your city is there. I miss the cuse but not the loudness of the city

Pull a logcat or use a tool like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tortel.syslog to do this for you. then after the phone reboots itself, run syslog and examine the last_kmsg and logcat to see what the obvious errors/issues are.
I too have noticed google maps crashing, camera unable to connect, random reboots, file system errors, sluggishness, etc more lately with my G3 too. Wonder if some aspects of the hardware are failing...

Yea, when the camera is broken, neither app can connect until phone rebooted. Already tried many a time.

These symptoms could indicate a sticky power button. Try knocking it lightly against the corner of a table to jar whatever is making it stick loose.
It doesn't sound software related, especially since it rebooted while in recovery. If you hold the power button down long enough in recovery it will reboot, which makes me think you just have a sticky power button. It's happened to me before.

I think you might be right. Even when it is up and running, I have been noticing lately that I get the power menu popping up sometimes when I wasn't even touching the power button. So last night when it was in one of its constant boot loop fits I took it apart a bit (took the back off, took out the battery sim and sd, and unscrewed the shell) and blew some compressed air all around the power button. It had been rebooting for about an hour at that point and then as soon as I put it back together it came up on the first try. So far so good.

Boot Loop, sort of...

I'm having a weird issue that literally just started yesterday. First of all, I didn't do any changes yesterday before this occurred. Anyway, my G3 just started freezing, then rebooting randomly, BUT that's not all! When it tries to reboot, it flashes the LG screen, and SOMETIMES makes it to the AT&T screen....and even, sometimes makes it all the way booted up. But, at any point, it can/will reboot and start the process all over. I read on another site that it could be a battery going bad, but I only trust XDA. So, could someone chime in with some help or info pointing me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance,
Ontabok
same issue i am having ..i thought about the battery thing so i pulled it out and put in a fully charged one and no bootloop..but now 3 hours later and 85 percent left on battery and bootloops have started again..btw other battery was a 20 percent when changed it out for fully charged batt..so im just as lost trying to figure it out

How can I figure out what part of the hardware could be causing this? Is there a diagnostics or something I can use? I've tried factory reset (multiple times), LG Flash Tools to flash previous version, and the strange thing is it may not even make it through the process without restarting again. It's been rooted, but I've never had a problem until this. I never deleted anything.

Not really other than swapping out parts. If using flash tool won't work and it won't go back to stock then it's definitely a hardware issue.
What percent does it get too before rebooting? If 80% that's normal. If before it's definitely a hardware problem.

I can try Flash Tools again. Maybe it just didn't take. I just noticed another thing. When it's trying to boot, if the notification light flash when the LG screen is on, it will load. But, if it doesn't flash, then it will just go black, then flash the LG screen again.

Yeah. It's really weird. It seems to do it less when the battery is charged, but if I get down to 40-50%, it could go into a loop that runs the battery into the red. Also, it seems to heat up around the power button when it's stuck in the loop. And, to top it off, my software update popped up yesterday. I've been anxiously awaiting Marshmallow for a while, but I'm afraid to update because of boot-looping right in the middle and bricking the whole thing. I already have a bricked G2 due to something weird that happened while trying to update to Lollipop. I'm going to the AT&T store today, I think. I'll let you know what I find out. Maybe, it can help you.
Thanks,

Ok. So, first of all, sorry for the long wait on a reply.
I did manage to get through a factory reset, but it still is doing the boot loop. I'm going to take it in to AT&T today. You can see my reply above to see more info. I unrooted everything and factory reset, but it still loops. I think it's a problem with the phone. I may have to go to LG, depending on what AT&T says.
Thanks for the help!

So, final update. I had to go into the AT&T tech store. I was having the random boot loop for about a week, then, on Saturday, I got the Demigod green screen. I had went in the day before and ordered a new battery, but I couldn't find any information on the green screen error. I took it in and they immediately (after checking for rooting) replaced it (warranty). They said they had never seen/heard of this screen. They had to actually Google it to see if it's attached to rooting. (It's not) Anyway, so I'm back in the saddle with a brand new phone. ?

ok so my g/fs g3 just started doing this. updated to mm about 3 or 4 days ago. was doing fine. haven't changed anything software wise. completely stock. no root.
what is really odd is that it doesn't loop when plugged into a power source. take it off the charger= insta loop ...
hoping a rom might solve the issue but from the sounds of the replies maybe that isn't the case.
any help greatly appreciated. i've not owned this phone myself or i would already have it rooted and custom recovery..
is there even a root method for MM? recovery?
i'd love to see if its a software issue. the phone worked swell before the update...
im trying to get to the bottom of this tonight if i can my g/f has a final tmr early in the morning and i'd like to make sure she has a phone to go with her. prob send her with mine if i can't get this working. but thats less than ideal PM if you've got anything i can try or links to get me started... i'll be reading in the mean time...

Random restarts

Out of nowhere my phone started to restart randomly to the point when it looks like a boot loop. Also I have noticed that those boot loops occurs when my battery is below 50% and when I'm charged to 100% I can boot but after 3-4 minutes it goes to restart anyway. Also when I have turned off WiFi, GPS and BT there are no more reboots so far but I'm not able to turn on back WiFi, GPS or BT unless I will pull battery out and put back and turn on them back quickly but then I'm getting back those random restarts.
I'm on a stock but rooted Lollipop with TWRP.
I saw some threads with similar issues and were related to a battery but in those cases phones stay up when were charged or a battery pack and mine has still if is connected to the wall or a battery pack.
Any clue what is going on?
Thanks
OK now I'm not able to get to the Factory Reset screen (Power + Vol Down). Any clue on that?
Also when I try to flash stock it goes for about 6% and stops saying something like can't change to download mode.
Is this phone dead?
Also when I try to flash stock it goes for about 6% and stops saying something like can't change to download mode.
Is this phone dead?
So now I have issues to get started that phone. Mostly goes into boot loop mode (LG logo, LED flashes few times and reboots). Sometimes it goes beyond LG logo - to AT&T logo and reboots there. When I pass that I have a luck and I can get phone to work but I need to disable WiFi, BT and NFC.
Also I have got into MiniOS and run that ATT testing tool which came all passed except one - OTG or something like that failed.
Any help?
I think android modification is dead man. There's a bunch of junk devs that release crap that isn't even worthy of being flushed down a toilet, then provide no help to users with problems. At best they tell you that it's your fault then ignore you.
Wish I could help. I'm having a similar problem on CM13. After a few dozen posts asking for help with 0 replies, I've decided you now modify your software entirely at your own risk and if something goes to hell you either have to install a different ROM or buy a new phone.

try a new battery @TheNetwork @Scyzor
I ran into those constant bootloops on every ROM I tried, including when I factory restored to KitKat unless the phone was plugged in. I got a new battery (then recently replacing that one with a newer & good 6,800mAh for under $20 because it drains way too fast) & bootloops stopped.

I think android modification is dead man. There's a bunch of junk devs that release crap that isn't even worthy of being flushed down a toilet, then provide no help to users with problems. At best they tell you that it's your fault then ignore you.

I think this is sad but true :\ All PROs are gone to different phones or newest releases and only LG G3 fanboys left with bunch of "supporters" from Asia. Anyway I'm going to dump LG and will wait for new Google Nexus.

I ran into those constant bootloops on every ROM I tried, including when I factory restored to KitKat unless the phone was plugged in. I got a new battery (then recently replacing that one with a newer & good 6,800mAh for under $20 because it drains way too fast) & bootloops stopped.

I have got two batteries week ago. One original replacement (3000 mAh) and some OEM (3500 mAh) - both were failing into boot loop until I will get to be lucky enough after full charge over the night and boot to the system and leave it as is but last Tuesday my screen started to fade away instead of turning off and after that it went again into boot loop.
But I don't have any problems booting into recovery (TWRP) or DL mode. Strange...

This happens with all phones as devs are like anyone else. They upgrade their devices and focus on the new device. Some sell their old device to offset the cost of the new one. Development takes time and many of these individuals have lives outside of development. They have jobs and/or families. What they do is for the fun of it and so they can get more of what they want out of Android. If they share it, then that is up to them and does not mean they owe support to those who choose to use their ROM(s). The fact that a development site lets non developers use ROMs that are uploaded is a privilege and I'm thankful for it. I'm not a developer but have been able to use info from here to get more of whst I want from my phones.
Strange problem. Battery full, no problems there. After getting mad about sdcard not being recognized, even with cm 12.1 , I decided to install cm 6.01 rom(marshmallow) nightly. Installed, changed launcher to nova prime, right gapps, and installed kernel auditor. Downloaded xposed for marshmallow, rebooted, everything was fine(or so I thought). Two days later, coming back from store, looked at my phone and hit power, to get it out of sleep. That's when everything went wrong. It didn't come back, and no pressing of the power button did anything, I had to battery pull. I rebooted to twrp, and over the next week tried to get it right. Uninstalled cm 6.01 nightly, and put xneon rom on it. Same problem persisted, no boot to the os, or partial boot to the lockscreen. I knew the phone wasn't hard bricked, since twrp was still working, and phone wasn't shutting down to no response. Whenever I tried to boot into the os' , it would still get stuck on startup, though. I read all of the advice to return to stock, using flashtool, or lgup, going into download mode, everthing that I could read up on, and implement. I ran to best buy, and ordered a huawei 5x, and said to myself, I can't fix it. Well, today, I said why don't I short the battery pins, and repeatedly press the power buttons, at the same time( because when i put the battery in, even after 10~15 seconds, it would boot to the lg logo, then fade to non-responsive again). Viola! it booted into the os' , and didn't shut down to unresponsive condition(no power button action, and ultimately, battery pull). It seems everthing was fine, until I used the browser, then condition came back. Battery pull again, and it's working now, haven't shut it down since, so I adjusted the display off time to 30 min. , and turned off power saving modes. I don't know if it's truly fixed, but I thought my phone was going to my archives history drawer(all my other phones still work, but they're underpowered, old os' phones). It may still go there, once I pick up my huawei, but I'm glad to see it still living. Is there some type of time out I'm not aware of? or a shutdown by internal fuse, or reset that's built into the firmware? I've heard of bad screens with this, but didn't think that was the problem, since, when in twrp, it never shut down to being unresponsive, and when twrp shut off screen, it would come back, even after hrs of it on. I want to know if the bootloader has anything to do with this, and by shorting it, cleared the emmc.
I have made a video how it looks on my LG G3:
PS.
Is there flashable CWM for D850? I have heard that TWRP is creating those issues from the video.
Well, based on some articles it looks like a hardware issue mostly related to the overheating and "cold soldering joints". Based on that article most of LG phones may experience that issue:
