Random freezes!

Hello everyone I'm new to this so here goes. Arhd 6.1.5 I would randomly get freezes ever so often I ignored however because I saw 6.2..I downloaded 6.2 and I super wiped. And flashed the correct radio. But I am still getting random freezes forcing me to pull battery. The freezes usually happen when I lock my screen and go to unlock it. The 4 capacitive buttons light up then It freezes. I don't understand why I keep getting freezes. Starting to happen more often now with 6.2 also I tried turning my CPU settings Down but still no help.

When you say you superwiped before install do you also wipe data, cache, dalvik cache and battery stats(just because lol)...do you also restore any data and/apps with tibu

I wiped everything since I had problems with this rom at version 6.1.5 so i went ahead and wiped everything and downloaded all my stuff again to see if this helped, but it did not work. I don't use titanium backup. I figured just wiping everything and redownloading all my stuff would work, I did have a backup though just in case it didnt work, so I restored that after I saw I still got freezes.

Have you tried other roms or kernels? I'd suggest Coredroid. I've tried several others and find it to be the most stable.

are you OCing or UVing? Have you changed radios/kernels recently? I know when I UVing too much my phone loves to freeze. I would say try a ROM that doesn't OC out of the gate as believe ARHD has there rom set to 1.2 I think? I know Bindroid keeps theres at about stock and is extremely stable.

i have a similar problem. can I set the cpu back to stock level on ARHD using OCDaemon?

Reboots every 20 minutes

Ive hit the wall as far as my experience fixing my phone goes, and I would REALLY appreciate any help
A few days ago I updated my rom (icecoldsandwich, if it makes a difference). I went from a stable version to a test version. After the update I began having random reboots, sometimes as often as every 20 minutes. These happen regardless of what I'm doing, sometimes even if I'm not touching the phone.
I figured these were due to the rom, so I went back to the stable version and still had the same problem. I then tried a few different builds (redemption, aospX, cm7). Still have the problem
I've tried redownloading the roms, checking the checksums, formatting my sd card, reflashing cwm. Pretty much everything I can think of and nothing has helped.

Could be the battery. This is a symptom of the battery going bad, especially if you still have the stock battery. Get your hands on another battery and see if that fixes the problem.

I have the stock battery, but the phone itself is only 3 months. Who knows how "old" it is, but it hasn't been heavily used yet
Edit: also, it has rebooted while plugged in to an ac charger. From what I've read of battery issues, they reboot when the battery goes, but NOT while plugged in

How about flashing the stock RUU and then reflash your stable version?

To be honest with you, I'm not even 100% sure what RUU is, much
less what it entails

RUU is the stock ROM Update Utility. To you it is the stock ROM that you can flash on your phone from your PC.

Try flashing like cordroid or another gingerbread sense Rom and see if you experience the same.

Hi
After learning to load diferents ROM, I habe laerned the following:
try a factory reset after you loaded the ROM.
But I will recommed to make a complete Clear Dalvik Cache and load the rom
After you loaded the ROM, perform a full reset factory
If you still having the issue, discard that rom, won´t work in your HTC

You should be factory/cache/dalvik clearing BEFORE you load the rom.

Put in any rom and try something out. Power off the cell and take out the battery. See what happens. I had a strange battery behaviour a week ago which I'll be posting in the Q&A at some point.
Sent from a dream.

I always do a full wipe (either restore/dalvik/cache, or else the super wipe script) before every flash. I have also noticed that my phone is much more stable since I took the sim out. It will still reboot, but I can get up to 10 hours in between.

Could be a rogue app, also. I know Google Reader made my phone reboot 3 different times when I was using it. Haven't had a problem since I uninstalled it.

Pi don't think its an app either. Running my phone right now with only xda and isyncr installed and still had a reboot(although it did go 3 hours this time). I ordered a new battery from amazon. Hopefully that fixes it. Should be in next week

Let us know how the new battery works, I know I've been considering getting one.

I got the battery in this afternoon. So far one reboot. I'll give it a day or two to settle in and give a report. If this doesn't do it I'm completely at a loss

So, after finally running out of other options I flashed the stock RUU through hboot. If this doesn't fix the problem then I'm completely screwed. Thanks to everyone for their help. I'll keep a reboot logger running and check back tomorrow.

Bootloops with any Rom, PLEASE HELP..!!

guys I have a serious problem..!!
I was in 5.1.8 everything was fine non a problem and when 5.5 came out I installed it, super wipe script, and install the Rom; I was getting a lot of boot loops. Reinstall the ROM again full wiping, ans still the same. I came back to 5.1.8 and I'm still having boot loops but not that often like it was in 5.5, now I have boot loops when turn on the data or when I try to make a call... I really don't know what could be the problem because I have installed hundreds of roms with the same steps and everything was fine,.I don't know what could be the problem...
I hope someone could help me thanks a lot

Hi... I once had a similar problem late last year. My phone kept rebooting randomly, sometimes as soon I switch the phone on, or data like yourself. What I did was.... Installed the official RUU that came on my phone (O2) and the rebooting stopped. But I felt the need to send it back anyway, so I did and just as well, because HTC replaced the mainboard and a few other things. I hadn't overclocked or anything either so it was a strange one.
This way worked for me, so give it a go.

I rooted my phone, then unrooted without ever installing a custom rom. I have gotten boot loops ever since and seemingly random shut downs that require me to take out the battery and put it back in before the phone will boot up again. Happens every day, several times a day.

When you say rooted and unrooted what exactly did you do?? Meaning did you HTC unlock or use revolutionary to s-off? And what recovery did you use? Because in actuality all root is, is the su binaries and the su app, not the process of gaining the access. There are inherent problems with the htcdev unlock and using cwm as your recovery. Even if you delete su the remnants of either process could possibly cause problems. Did you return to s-on again?? Because that will cause serious issues if you don't have the correct ruu. Did you flash any newer firmwares??? The few before .32 did cause loops without the correct rom.
Also in your case it sounds like a rogue app causing loops because it boots up after a battery pull. Have you tried to factory reset and wipe your data to see if that helps??

Used Revolutionary, not sure what I used to put it back as it's been a while but I followed a guide from here. I'm trying the card piece trick so we'll see if it does anything.

Pm me if your soff I can help easy
Sent from my Sensation using xda premium

Thanks but not s-off anymore and just got another reboot so I doubt it's the battery. I guess I'll try to deal with it until ICS and see if that fixes anything. If not then I guess I'll try something more drastic.

Well get soff you can't fix with out it
Sent from my Sensation using xda premium

Ok, got s-off again.

It seems to have something to do with going in and out of service or switching between wifi and cell service. But that could just be a coincidence.

Anyone have ideas on how to fix this? I got the OTA ICS and I'm still getting reboots.

it won't hurt ur phone u must stick a tape to close the gap between batt pins and connectors do it and see it easy but worth allot

Tried that earlier in this thread and it didn't help.

Anyone else?

Well guys after reading I fixed my problem cleaning the little panels in the battery, and also installing another rom, seems like the htc sense roms have some problems with that because since I install a senseless rom (not aosp) the problem is gone

I think you did not unroot properly. Can you please describe the process you used for unrooting?

Don't remember what guide I used to unroot as it was a while back. It definitely seems to have something to do with the signal. It will lose signal, reboot, get pretty warm and repeat while sometimes just shutting off and needing the battery pulled and put back before it will turn back on. My wife will have a signal just fine in the same areas mine loses them.
Very frustrating because I'm missing a lot of calls and txts because it'll just shut down.

First make a NANDROID backup now. Then try rooting again to see if that fixes the issue.
If not, try to flash a different Radio. I would in your case also suggest wiping all partitions except SD card and re-installing the ROM, after flashing the radio.

Nexus S 4g Will Not Stop Rebooting

Hi,
I recently have flashed some new roms on my phone. So heres what happened... I had been using MIUI for months now for my NxS4g but the MIUI rom was just getting too laggy for me for daily use. So then I flashed Factory Rom. Worked good for a while then it started this rebooting randomly.. I Did Full Wipe, Format etc before flashing.. It seems fine while using it but once I turn the screen off and let it sit it just starts to randomly reboot. So I thought oh well its just the rom. Then I went back to MIUI and flashed the new Miui 2.10.26.2 which is a great running rom and I thought it fixed my problem because I spent an hour or 2 installing fresh new apps from the market, didnt restore anything or flash a custom kernel everything was stock and all fresh new apps. So I went to bed woke up at 6am like usual and noticed my phone had stopped responding... had to take the battery out and boot it up.. sometimes it does that and i have to pull the battery and sometimes it fully reboots. So now I am stumped ive tried everything i know. full format/wipes, fixing permissions, wiping dalvik and cache, and still not working! I hope my phone isnt dying or something. It was working fine. Please if anyone has a fix or knows what to do please help me! The only thing I haven't done is formatted my SD card which is what im about to try.
Thanks in Advance!
Adam

Hi,
What factory ROM?
Every ns4g responds to different kernels differently...maybe the newest version of that ROM u installed had a different kernel that sometimes causes many random reboots... so check that plz.
But u say udid a factory reset and stuff... did u wipe Dalvik and cache? Cuz that is important.
Good luck

[Q] Need Help after rooting implosion

UPDATE: 07-04-14 5:25pm EST:
I was able to get all my data off using a mac. I re-flashed Purity ROM after doing a full wipe. I have now re-installed all most of my apps and have begun normal use. For now this is resolved hopefully I have no further issues. Thanks for the response @Kreateablaze Much appreciated.
So here is a brief history about what I did and what I am experiencing. I am pretty much a newb here so please be gentle and excuse my ignorance.
Just in case you don't want to read my book below:
TLDR: rooted phone, Installed TWRP, installed Purity Rom, system failed hardcore, cant get data off my phone because explorer crashes. I just want to get my data off so I can re-install a ROM or just flash back to stock and re-lock the bootloader.....
-Unlocked bootloader, rooted, and installed TWRP using "Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit"
(just want to give props to any one involved in that tool, it is an amazing tool and worked flawlessly!)
-After running the toolkit, I was successfully rooted and running TWRP.
-I ran a back up using TWRP. Is that what is referred to as a "Nandroid" back up?
-After running this back up I installed "Purity ROM"
-For the first 24 hours everything was fine.
-I had to reboot my N5 due to an app that was acting up and a reboot usually cleared up the issue if force stopping didn't. (an app I used before rooting and I knew how to fix the issue I was having, I don't think this is related to my issue.)
-After rebooting the phone, I was faced with a pop up stating something along the lines of android UI has stopped working. I clicked okay, unlocked the phone it flashed black with my home screen icons and everything went back to normal. I rebooted the phone again just to make sure that was a one time fluke. This time The phone was in an endless crash cycle. Every process I could think of was crashing non stop the phone was unusable. I did some research and found something that said to go into TWRP and run a permissions repair.
-After running permissions repair my phone booted back up and was working relatively okay.
-After the repair rebooting my N5 results in that same UI crash I got the first time. BUT the phone is usable, and that process never crashes again unless I reboot.
-After running that permissions repair some of my apps disappeared. Trying to re-install them results in a -24 error. I got a few of them to re-install by clearing related data in data/data folder. A few of my apps refuse to re-install even though there is no trace of the data in the data/data folder.
-Another issue I am having after all of this is that I can NOT pull any data off of the phone. I plug it in, Windows recognizes the phone but it takes about 10-15 minutes to load the folder structure. I am then unable to copy any of the data off of the phone. Explorer crashes and I cant get the data off. UPDATE: I was able to get the data of the phone by using a friends Mac. I will post an update with some more info.
-I need to get my data off the phone before I can continue but am unable to. Any help would here would be greatly appreciated.
-Also if any one knows a more stable ROM with a similar feature set to Purity that is fast, has good battery life and isn't packed to the gills with features tht may one day cause more issues that they are worth. Please let me know.
Thanks in advance for any help you guys may be able to offer me.

Well I'm not too sure what your issue could be, but purity is one of the most stable roms on here... Have you looked in the purity thread for posts saying the same thing happened? I highly doubt it is the rom.

I would definitely agree that something went wrong rather than the ROM being unstable..... Any idea about how to get my data off the phone. at this point that is my main concern so I can re-flash purity....

I'm not too sure, I never had to get the data off my phone using a computer, always just used titanium backup. Maybe try reflashing purity, just wipe cache not any data.
