Any way around not having to clear the "cache" on BOOT?

So I am running into the problem that my phone wont boot up if I turn my phone off, or it dies.
The only way around to getting it back on is getting CWM up and doing a "cache wipe".
The symptoms I am having when I try to turn it on is I do not get past the LG logo. The soft keys are lit and the screen back light comes on and off (black screen) with a 2-3 second intervals forever (have not went past 10min).
I am running xboards tweaked 2.3.3 with fauxes stock volt kernel, any more into?
Thanks guys.

No one? Really?..

Sounds like an errant app is causing you problems. Once you boot start uninstalling apps one at a time that you think are the culprit and try rebooting. Do this until your phone can boot again and then you'll have a good idea of the problem app.

The only thing I can think of is maybe an issue with the custom kernel. Do you remember having the issue before you flashed Faux's kernel?

I installed fauxes OC (over clock), and its working fine now, I was having problems with SV (stock voltage), maybe that was the culprate?
P.S. After restarting my phone (I have been doing it every so often to test for stability) my home screen got reset to factory? I had all my apps and everything, it was just factory..??? Only happened once tho.

[Q] sensation 4g randomly turning off and rebooting

Is anyone else experienceing this problem and is there a solution to fix this?

Factory Reset, you messed something up in your rom most likely. If you are s-off'd I would recommend flashing another rom, or reflashing a the same rom.

Which ROM are you running?

im using ARHD, but im used many other rom and the samething keeps happening, i even got another sensation and its the samething

I too have run across this issue. I found if I use more than one Widget it happens. This is happening on the past two roms I have used.

COMPLETELY wipe your phone, flash a stable ROM you know that works, and then make a nandroid backup so this doesn't happen again. Normally I would suspect a faulty kernel, but if it's happening on every ROM idk what to say.

I am going to flash another rom , for testing purpose...while looking into it I fund this comment.....
Set CPU clock back to 1.2 GHz.... fi you don't want your CPU to be overclocked or you had boot-loop or random reboots ---
Not sure if this is the answer, but I'll try it, if it continues , and will report back

I've been running into this same issue, but it only happens in the middle of the night. The phone wakes me up with its little vibrate when rebooting over and over. The only way I can stop the rebooting is to unplug and plug the charging cable back in. Plus the phone gets really hot until I unplug it. Running the latest NRG rom with stock kernel.

This happens to me whenever I play music, and alternate between texting and surfing the web...stock rom...

I'm having the same problem now. Phone was fine then started rebooting. wiped and restored from backup of when it was fine and still reboots.

i have the same problem i installed the bad recovery awhile back when it forst came out now on the good one but i think it messed up the phone cause i have random reboots like crazy i have s-off and everything just since that day it started but the phone works perfect on the charger i got a s2 since then but would like to revive my old phone if possible

battery issues Valhalla-BlackEdition-2.3.7 cyanogenmod hybrid Updated

I have been having issues with the battery % not updating. I followed all instructions installing the rom. im also trying to get a logcat file posted.If i use a charger plugged into the wall the phone gets extremely hot at the top however, if i plug it to charge from the computer its fine. I have tried 4 different wall chargers with the same heating issues. anyone having similar issues?

You can download an app from the market to run a logcat... Most of them have an email option so you just email it to yourself, download to your PC and copy/paste to here or in a pm... A for the issue, I have had a similar issue. To fix it, I used Odin to flash back to Kj6 stock, Odined BH's's Kj6 kernel and then flashed the ROM i was currently using, following the instructions exactly and all was good...
It cleans out the gremlins

Is it a particualr app? Or maybe some left over data?

i think it might be rom leftovers...because nothing is showing up on the logs as an error the rom is working normally.... IF not it could just be a few of u have defective hardware also people if its getitng hot pop the battery cover feel the battery if the battery isnt hot its prob the cpu overheatingi its possable that u could have a failing hardware issue also try a reflash clean install dont restor anything just use the rom fresh.... and if u ahve to re install form market if u still have error try a stock rom i bet u still have the issue.... Hate to say it but the 5 of u may have a hardware issue... cause logs are not reporting anything that would cause it...

As in my case with BeautifulSGS4G, it was ROM leftovers. Hope that is the case and not defective hardware...

Good for me that i didn't experience this battery heating issues, the truth is, this is the first rom i experience that i can be able to play games while the phone is charging without heating problem compare to the previous roms i've flash to this phone... and even my battery life lasts over a day and a half even i overclocked it.. and that's one of the reason why i can say that raver's CM hybrid Rom is one of the brilliant rom so far that i have experience...

I did a Odin back to stock and then did an Odin to get cwm. Then I installed black. Seams better now. I will keep testing all day and report back. But so far seams that this is working. It gets warm when charging but no way near as hot as before. Probably had some gremlins from another rom lingering about.

What i did is make backup of my data, disable lagfix, flashed Heimdall one-click kj6(beta2d) let it set, flashed raver's CM7 hybrid following instructions and restore my data without issue so far and its great..

[Q][HELP][ASAP] Multiple Random Reboots.. PLEASE HELP.

Just like the title, i have been experiencing some random rebooting in the past 9 days... at first i thought that i somehow held the on/off button inside my pocket and rebooted itself. my theory changed when i was charging it on that same night... i knew something was wrong few days after it would reboot itself from time to time.
also sometimes after rebooting (mostly when it is charging..) wifi connections start to goof off. i checked the wifi setting and it would say "error" under the "turn on/off wifi" area where you usually see the "connected/connecting/disconnected" letters, along with that some apps start to force close mostly the ones that needs the net get fc's.....
only yesterday it got worse. on the morning it had started to reboot. when i unlocked the lockscreen some apps started to FC. i usually get fc's in booting are the juice plotter, Google partner setup, and something with "wifi". now i manually rebooted it myself when it boots, it still shows those fc's. if it tried pressing some apps it tried to fc as well. manual reboot again, now messages fc's along with the three....
so i went to recovery and restored my safest backup. after restoring no more fc's in my boot. i thought it was all fine now but after a while it would randomly reboot!!!!
Styles of random reboots ive gotten:
1. on screen-off while charging after a while BOOM! reboot.
2. on screen-off not charging, after a while BOOM! reboot.
3. pressing the on/off button on the side when it was on screen-off, BOOM! reboot.
4. pressing the on/off button on the side when it was on screen-off, shows the lockscreen, shows "SD card unexpectedly removed" on status bar, BOOM! reboot.
*it wont reboot when you're using it unless it goes to screen-off for a while (like when using music player... when it goes to screen-off for a while it would reboot...)
--- i will add more of the reboots styles if i remember the others.---
i really need help. i cannot reflash to stock because my laptop got stolen since February. i would be receiving my new laptop in five days.... but i am worried that something worse would happen before even getting my laptop in five days.

normally when i experience random reboots, i just wipe cache and dalvik cache
if that dont work out then i flash back to stock kernel

its might me rom problem and one thing try to flash ur phone again but u said u don't have laptop but its only sol. according to me . if u want to be on 2.3.6 then acc to me don't install kernel and brother flashing again is the only sol
but for the mean while wipe everything and then deodex again it might help u .
after wipe all and formatting deodex it again
bcz sometime app FC and for that deodex again is necessary

Yes I know . The latest uc kernel is v10. But my laptop was stolen since the first week of february. That time the best kernel suited for poseidon rom was the v6. So till now I am stuck with v16 since the time my laptop was gone until I get my new on in 4 days at least...

Sorry, I didnt see your post earlier. But I am wiping every thing now while im replying you. I will tell you the results when it is finished.
Edit: phone seems to work normally. But some apps get fc's... But i think i know why. Its because i forgot to move back apps which were moved to the sd card back to phone memory.(using app2sd).. I know so because i remember having 7 apps moved to sd which had taken alot of space due to its size.
Anyway, thanks bro! I guess i owe you my phone but i will still be monitoring the phone and see if it'll reboot randomly again... Till i get my laptop ill reflash my phone. Again, thanks alot sandeep!and good luck with your exams again!
RE-EDIT: it not kinda fixed yet... When i woke up and checked my phone it seemed to be normal but when i opened the lockscreen fc's starts flooding me... About 6 or 7 fc's they are google goggles, superuser,titanium backup, google play music, google setup sumthing (it was in the first post..) Emai and.messages... I also get fc on yahoo mail but it doesnt fc the same time as the others. I tries uninstalling rthem and other apps as well but some time while i uninstall it starts to freeze and reboot... But the reboot is different. I doesnt reboot the "samsung galaxy s 19003 " thing. Justs stars from the glowing samsing logo. When it boots, the uninstalled apps seems to come back. So i thought of removing mg sd card and then restart... Fc's lessened to superuser, email tbackup and email. And i can uninstall now without it rebooting. Now i know ext sd cards are somewhat along with the problem. My phones antivirus does not see any viruses in it tho.
... Oh im using my SE W8.. Kinda small, hard to type...

it sounds like a kernel problem to me just update your kernel if you cant because you dont have a laptop just use mobile odin

Hmm.. I also thought if it could be the kernel as well. I researched last night on my arc and some say that it is the kernel that was doing this.i am downloading the kernel and odin on my new xperia arc as im making this post. Thanks.

Sounds like a hardware problem forme. I have this problem 4 months ago. I have random reboots. I have tried everything from flashing new roms and kernels and nothing seems to fix it. Have you tried clean flashing(xxkpe-xxkpq)? If that still doesnt work then you really have a hardware problem. The only thing you can do is to send it back to samsung service center for repair or replacement(I just hope you are still in warranty period)

Like i said i dont have a laptop yet to reflash phone to stock and check. If it'll not work, im pretty sure they'll change the motherboard.. My warranty expires on july so there is still time. pretty sure my dad will get pissed and buy an s2 instead. This phone already went to the service center twice. And the service center is far from where i live. Though i am enjoying improving the capabilities of this phone :\
Anyway what i did now was flashed uc kernel v10 via odin mobile (thanks mR_ ). Then i wiped everyting again. So far there was no fc's yet and one reboot only when i was installing dolphin browser... And thats it. Nothing else suspicious happened yet.

This problem has happened to my bro before. I helped him change his rom to clean kpu and it was fixed.

Looks like the infamous pseudo reset bug again! Well looks like it with some symptoms missing, the i9003 had a faulty board with faulty internal memory card, so when it goes to sleep the int card sometimes doesn't wake up again. I faced this problem personally myself, no amount of flashing can help you (though i suspect excessive flashing might have caused/triggered it, dunno) so make sammy change the board on this bad boy, hey! you might get 16gb inbuilt memory as a bonus!

hmm... i hope not. also i dont really flash anything unless updates are available on the ics theme. well now that you mentioned it, while i was at the beach like last week, i put my phone on my pocket without screening of (which i always and should do..) and then when i checked back the all my messages and files in the internal sd card were gone.... though the apps are still there and were still on go launcher ex home..... i hope it was just am accidental reset. i want to bring it to the service center im going to get my laptop in at least 2 days! and i want to spend my summer with both of them.
anyway. is wifi working well on poseidon rom with the uc kernel v10? thats the only problem here. my wifi keeps going on and off. crashing the apps that needs wifi whenever i press it. its the same problem with amit cf root kernel when you use poseidon.

[Q] Constant Reboots with Synergy

This started occurring last night when I was using Winamp to sync music files to my phone. Every 10% or so the phone would reboot itself and I'd have to start the entire process over. Since then, I've been getting random reboots while doing anything from typing an e-mail to closing an app and haven't been able to narrow it down to anything specific.
So far I've tried
1) Removing my external sd card
2) Uninstalling numerous apps to try an pinpoint one causing an issue
3) Underclock from the 1.9 ghz the rom comes with
4) Removing the battery
5) Reflashing the latest nightly, clearing cashe and dalvik
Anyone have any idea on how I can try to resolve this? I love the phone and the ROM, but I can't deal with random reboots while just using my phone normally.
Thanks in advance.

I had this problem too with the latest release, even after reflashing it, and it even popped up randomly like your issue after using the ROM for a while. All of the sudden random reboots all the time. I went back to R64. I think there is a different kernel in some of the newer releases or some change, I don't really know, but R64 has been running perfect all around and hasn't rebooted once on me. You may be able to dirty flash back to 64, I don't know if it will work because I didn't try it, but I do know a clean flash fixed it for me. If it's just kernel issues then dirty flash should work as usual.
