[Q] reboot issues even after flashing CM7 - T-Mobile LG G2x

My phone came with 2.3.3 and it would shut down randomly all the time. Now after installing CWM recovery and flashing with the latest CM7 nightly (124), I am still experiencing reboot issues in the middle of calls. Any suggestions guys ?
Could anyone recommend a more stable rom maybe ?
Returning the phone is out of question because I bought it off ebay.
thanks

Go back to a nightly around 100 or 105 or so. Seriously, I believe the radio interface layer got all dicked up at some point in the last month or so of nightlies.
I went back to 105 and am no longer having issues. After nightly 115 or so I was getting reboots during calls and SOD w/ overheating.

I was having the same problem and I'm also running CM7 Build 124. I went to T-Mobile and had them give me a brand new battery and now I have no reboots or any other type of problem. Running the way I expect it to be. Hope this helps.

Yea, it also shuts down (not reboot) every time I charge the phone. If changing the rom does the solve the problem, i'll try replacing the battery next time around.
Thanks guys

I had the same problem when I was running Weapon G2X, phone would shut down in the middle of the convo. Flashed CM7 and haven't seen the issue. My phone still has a problem though that is pissing me off. I will put it on the charger at night and wake up in the morning to find the phone is off. Press the power button and it boots right up. I am going to try a new battery and see if that fixes this problem cause obviously flashing roms hasn't fixed it.

Did anybody get around to changing batteries, if so did that end your reboot issues/sleep of death?

I have flashed the most commonly used roms including CM7 nightly 124, weapon g2x 2.5, and eagles blood 1.9. I have used each for at least 5 days and noticed that all of them cause shutdowns while charging. currently using eagles blood because it is the only rom which does not reboot the phone while on a call.
but still, the phone shutting off while charging is very irritating. i'll be getting a new battery within week. any suggestions where i can buy one from ?

You're gonna need a new phone... Flashing custom ROMs isn't gonna fix it for you. I had that problem with my first G2x, and ended up getting a replacement. The reps are pretty lenient, so it's worth a shot to try to get a replacement.

Have you tried calling T-Mobile at all?

You could try using a different charger (other then lg charger). I have seen online some people have had this work for them. I haven't had this problem, just thought I would pass on what I have read.
Good luck, hope this helps

Do you have the latest baseband yet? If not, try to use the LG update tool to update your phone first. Many ppl gave this issue just because they don't update their phone originally

already updated !

uh the charger SOD bug is due to the rom not battery/phone specific. charging off pc is a temp workaround. had the same issue leaving the phone on the charger for extensive time frames and would have to pull the battery.

Baseband has nothing to do with the frequent shut-offs.

Same here
I had the same problems. Then I realized whenever it rebooting randomly, it was really really hot. My fix was set cpu and faux123's cm7 0.4.1 sv kernel, no reboots in 3 months!!!

[Q] self resetting thunderbolt woes?

yes i flashed a rom quite a few days ago- did a wipe on everything -rom loaded everything runs find ... twisted sense 1.5 with kernel that comes with sorry for my spelling trying to figure out whats going on anyway back to the problem at hand
im having issues were i could be doing anything on my tb all of a sudden it resets to the htc loading screen im like ok just a minor thing but it is now getting on my nerves i feel like i might of done something wrong yet im very cautious on how i flash rom using rom manager and its up to date of course. so i was thinking should i change it back to stock to see if that might cure my reset woes ? or just unroot and take it back ? any suggestions are helpful
This seems to be a known issue and is related to the new radio. Did you flash that?

yes i did flash the radio
Try reverting your radio back to stock (there is a thread in the Dev section) and see if it helps. I have been having this issue too, but it isn't bothering me enough right now to change it. Also I'm not sure if you can use the new framework with the old radio -- you may have to use an older ROM.
thats what im going to try
I have the new radio and I have never experienced resetting with any of the roms, etc. I might just be one of the lucky ones!
- thanks for rubbing it in -lol
Thats good...
i might be considering taking my tb back to get another if this doesnt work

Damn that was harsh! lol really the first thing should have been to try a different kernel. It has become known with the tb they are not all created equal. Kernels or I should say switching them can make a big difference.

Well my problem with resetting still exisits i returned to stock now
i seem to still be having this problem...
so hopped over to verizon to speak with someone about this and they
told me this was a functionality of the phone that they could send
me a replacement out but would cost me shipping and handling and also
stated if they didnt find anything wrong with it that i would have to
pay full retail !!! i was like BS *&^&&%^%^ *^%^%$&^$% well you get
the point.
i still have the same tbolt just trying to figure out what to do now was thinking of returning for another tbolt but fear
that this so called " functionality " of the phone ... any suggestions?
my phone was fine until I decided to flash the new radio. I reverted back to stock radio and I'm still getting reboots
yes same here i told verizon about my tbolt self resets like once every hour if im on it they told me it was a part of the functionality of the tbolt
My old one did that.
My old TBolt did that, kind of like resetting the Sense interface (which takes forever). I called them and talked with a really nice guy, and he explained a hard reboot should fix it (which didn't and I lost my call, and got connected with a capital B the next time around _-_)
I also was having issues with the memory card getting "wiped" (data still there, just not viewable in phone) and (the kicker) my phone would reach temperatures of 69degC while charging, while off.
That last one had them change it out right quick.
No automatic resets at all here, and I've had it on and using it most of the time throughout the LTE outage and after. No resets when on EvDO/HRPD; no resets when on LTE/eHRPD; no resets when on EvDO/eHRPD. It only resets when I tell it to!
As for the connection, well... I do get the occasional dropout on LTE. More problems tonight than most nights with that. But EvDO seems to be pretty stable as always.
i didnt have any problems during the outage since im not in a 4g lte area

Just a FYI for you, I do not have problems with reboots nor do I have most problems most say they are having, however my tb just did not like twisted sense 1.5. For me anyway I couldn't stay on it very long.
I have an idea if you want to give it a try. it will take some time and effort but on the other hand it just might save you the trouble of having to return your tb.
First, do a full wipe of data/cache, do it twice to be sure. flash BAMF, (either one don't matter). once you boot up go to settings/SD & phone storage and do a factory reset. let it reset and come back up. it will take a while to boot and you might even get errors which is ok.
Now hit the power button and reboot into recovery again wipe data/cache 3x, wipe cache 3x.
now try to install your rom. just for the heck of it at least for now stay away from twisted sense. I would use BAMF at least till you see if this solves your problem.
once you have your rom installed flash imoseyon's (SAFE) kernel.
If you do try this let me know how you make out. This has solved many issues for me in the past many times.
actually I stand corrected it was NOT twisted sense that gave me a problem it was tesla coil that I had problems with. so your choice there.

LinuxBozo experience of Ghostie.Napkinz

Just wanted to start off and say a BIG THANKS for LinuxBozo and his amazing infuse mod which lets us use the other samsung roms (JVQ restricted )
I have been experimenting ALOT with various roms and thought i would share some of which i have tested out so far, the only one which gave me some issues was Sensation 2.0 , seems like when you reboot, sometimes you get no netwrok, then reboot, and icons are missing, so its a question.
Obviously this isnt really an OFFICAL rom for the Infuse, but id like to know if anyone else has had nice experience or recommendations for use with this dude's rom.

Hellraiser uses the same Rogers RIL that Infused v2 does, so probably not. (RIL is one of the things that gets swapped out.)
It's often hard to tell for sure because many frameworks won't show HSPA+ even if the RIL/modem are operating in that mode. Hell, even our original Froyo ROMs were broken in that way - they displayed UMTS when in HSPA+ mode. (UMTS is plain vanilla 3G.)

Which ROM did you test for JVP , i might give it a whirl, i finally finished going through all those roms, The Vibrant rom wasnt very exciting, and seemed to lack the extended power menu drop down which has Reboot, recovery download mode and such, thats a big thing for me.
Darky was my favorite so far,I might try Sensation. If anyone wants to test out a couple JVP roms and try adding in the APN settings, lets see what comes up and post which rom you tested.
Thanks everyone for their input on this, im getting more interested now and i will be trying to use the Infusion Kernel with some of these roms and see if i get a performance boost.
Im not sure if its just me, but whenever i reboot ANY of those roms which are installed with Linux's software , it seems sometimes the icons on the app drawer l ike disappearing, then when i reboot, apps reappear, but the Network to ATT gets cut off, then i reboot again, and sometimes its normal..........Any ideas?

BTW, the default behavior in Sensation is no extended power menu, but if you use the app "Theme Settings (included in the ROM) you can change this.
As to the other issues - that's a new one, I haven't seen it before.

I ran Hawkish 4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032599
I chose it because I saw that the ROM included the background effect from the SGSII, which while I have the SGSII & this feature seems to throw my photos to the way over saturated side - its more appealing for home screen settings and every day use since everything just looked almost wet or gooey. But the setting didn't work I imagine a kernel conflict, but I'm sure this could be built into one of our ROMS later and I wouldn't mind helping out with putting it together.
Overall I thought this ROM was a little laggy for the phone, I'm sure there are others out there that could run MUCH better or smoother.
I find it funny that we get a stock phone and find it boring so we flash a brand new phone to something completely different within an hour and when the next phone comes out we want their stock stuff so we can see how it is on OUR phone...HAHAHA -addicted

I think those are controls for Voodoo Color which:
1) Is extremely difficult to implement on our device (significantly different screen)
2) Is not necessary on our device - our screen fixes most if not all of the problems VC was intended to fix.

Yes sir, I believe you are exactly right. I normally don't like over saturation, but on a HUGE screen it looked great with some gooey gingerbread green stuff around it. My photography looked horrible especially HDR shots, worth it though. The colors on the SGSII and this phone are pretty different tho. But a lot to do with the same resolution on a smaller screen. The screen on the Infuse is a big (no pun) factor that held me to it rather than the SGSII

Okay heres me scenario, hope it helps understand.
1) started off with phone already rooted and such and previously had Infused V2.00 full., Downloaded a JVQ rom ( like Darky's ) , and then downloaded Linux Bozo's rom/mod ) Put both of the zips on the ROOT of the internal SD .
2) backup info and boot into Red recovery.( Shut off device, then hold Vol - and + while pressing power ), release power and continue holding both volume keys).
3) Perform the following
Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache partition, Wipe Dalvik Cache
Install zip from SD card and select the ROM you want to use
Do install from SD card again and this time select the Linux Bozo zip
4) Reboot and you will be in your rom after 10 minutes ( be patient, it takes time ). If you want better performance, install the Infuse GB Kernel. Get it here

2) backup info and boot into Red recovery.( Shut off device, then hold Vol - and + while pressing power ), release power and continue holding both volume keys).
3) Perform the following
Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache partition, Wipe Dalvik Cache
Install zip from SD card and select the ROM you want to use
Do install from SD card again and this time select the Linux Bozo zip
4) Reboot and you will be in your rom after 10 minutes ( be patient, it takes time ). If you want better performance, install the Infuse GB Kernel. Get it here

5) Enjoy the rom

I've successfully flashed a JVQ Rom. I'm trying to figure out how Infiniti350 was able to flash a JVP Rom.

I just followed the exact instructions the OP posted up above. With 1 mishap, when I downloaded what I thought was the ROM....I only got the lock-screen (what happens when you read things way too fast & think you know what you did) which I already downloaded and flashed
I mounted the SD card while in recovery and pushed the file containing the ROM over to the phone - flashed it - flashed LinuzBozo's stuff - rebooted & things went well all I had to do was add APN's back.
I really like my current set up BUT I'll probably find something else, before I load the ROM I want I'll run this again with a JVP base and see how things go & defiantly let you guys know. Now I'm curious why it doesn't work for other people.

I think sometimes people either have a bad flash or don't properly wipe data. Same reason lots of people randomly had problems with Infused. (I haven't tried JVP myself though.)
Well, i just finished wrapping up my favorite roms, and i keep jumping between the Sensation rom, and Darky's Rom .
BUT!
I always data wipe, clear cache, factory reset
Idk if this helps, but i saw theres a new Linuz BETA 6 , perhaps this might help problems that a few have been going through.
In closing, i really hope more ROMS designed for the Infuse come fast , i got a feeling with this new mod there will be many to come

This is a very good point. The data wipe is vital for the Infuse no matter what. I have tried it with and without the wipe & all sorts of very strange things go wrong at random. Market apps wont download - Errors when using data - Youtube errors - issues with email. Each time I did it different ones would act up too, never the same.
Full Wipe so far has fixed it without failure
*Edit - Full for me same as prasadudwadia said above - data, cache, and factory reset.

[Q] Phone shuts down.

My phone shuts down all by it's self once or twice a day. It occurs on multiple roms. I really want to find out why. Can someone tell me how I can log wat happens?
Since I don't know when and why it shuts down I would likely need a logger wich writes to a log file so I can look back what the problem is.
I suspect it to be a hardware problem... (Don't hope so but it happens on multiple roms)
Thanks everybody
What kernels have been used with the roms?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
The used kernels were default kernels of the roms I used. Problem started wen using CM7 alpha. and now using Android Revolution with Faux123

I had the same problem before, I changed my kernel to bricked 0.91 and the problems are gone now.
I'm downloading Insertcoin rom now. I'll report back if the problem still occurs.

Change kernels. Go from 1.5ghz to 1.2 via daemon controller or another CPU adjuster.
The bricked 0.91 also fixes most issues too as stated above
Sent from my HTC Sensation in UR-Quan subspace.
Before you suspect Hardware.. Check first your software.. I'f i were you, i'll back up all my roms.. full / super wipe, then check it on by one.. lets say IC for first 2 days then ARHD on the 3nd-4th day.. If it does not shut down, it only means one thing, its not HARDWARE, it can be software.. Check also your chosen Kernel on your flashed ROM.. there might be an incompatibility running multiple different roms and kernels..
hope i'd help.. click thanks if i enlighten you so far..
Okay, I'm back from a weekend away.
What I did before I went away (Friday afternoon) is:
- Reboot to Recovery
- Wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe data
- install zip: Super-wipe (just to be sure)
- Install zip: InsertCoin 3.3.0
- install zip: InsertCoin 3.3.1
It all went well until Saturday evening. It was off when I got it out of my pocket. i tried to turn it on and it booted up. If it is on there is no problem at all. It stays on all the time...... Until I unlock my sim with my personal code. 2 seconds atfter that the phone turns off...
Since the problem reoccurred I tried the following things:
- Wipe cache, reboot (problem still exists)
- Wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, reboot (problem still exists)
- Wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe data, reboot (problem still exists)
- Wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe data, Super-Wipe, re-install rom, reboot (problem still exists)
Is there a way to test the hardware to rule it out? The problem occurred in three different roms and got worse. I really can't see how this could be a software problem.
I'm now going to download the latest stock rom and see what happens...
I had the same problem I'm on tmobile sensation 4g in the us and I think all us sensations have the problem... When I was using any rom that was based on the experimental sense 3.5 base my phone would turn off/crash I tried all different Roms but the problem still occured, I though about it and installed revolution hd with sense 3.0 and still on the old base and the problem is gone. I'm waiting for the official release of the new sense 3.5. Hope it helps
I had the problem on 3.5 and non 3.5 based roms. CM7, Android revolution XE, android revolution sense 3.5 and Insert Coin XE sense 3.5. The last one I mentioned was the worst and I even couldn't get past the security code.
I now installed a shipped Rom. Let's see what happens.
In my first post I asked if there was a log file in which I can see why it shuts down. can anyone shed a light on that?

I am having the same problems. I tried all of the same roms you have tried and as of last week I have decided to unroot my phone and return it to stock rom and recovery. after a week I am still getting the same random reboots. the only non stock part of my phone is that it is still S-Off, but I think im going to have to learn how to put stock S-On and go yell at the T-mobile guys to see if I can get a new phone.
If you can come up with anything better I would be willing to try it. the reboots are killing me.
This issue sucks. I'm glad I'm not the only one that has it though lol. I've also gone back to stock rom, no root/S-ON etc. Just to rule out the possibility that it's something funky going on with custom roms, kernels etc. So far I do still have random shutdowns, possibly a little less than I did before, but still there nonetheless. To get S-ON again, flash the RUU appropriate for your phone, then get into fastboot and type
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
and then
fastboot reboot-bootloader
More on all this is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201773
As far as logs to track down what is going on, I think it might be in lastkmsg. Unfortunately I don't know exactly where to find that or what to look for exactly.
And as stated twice before me, the problem still exists. I'm going to undo all changes to the Sensation and see what happens. If the problem is still there the phone will go back for warranty.
And again my old trustworthy HD2 saves the day as a backup...
I've never experience having a reboot with a super wipe then flashing a custom rom.. i do it almost everyday.. maybe its already a hardware since software installation (roms, and kernels) are clean when you do the flashing.. Has your phone experience some accidents? like fell on the ground?
Not that I know of.
I'm not new to flashing and I'm a real flashoholic. Nothing ever went wrong with flashing. Where other people would have problems with a certain ROM I could always enjoy the Rom without trouble.
I installed the eu version of the shipped roms. the problem seems to be different again. Nof it shuts down far less then before but I have to pull the battery to get it to boot up again.
I hope I have enough time today to S-on the phone. Does anybody know if the box states which version number it was shiped with? I know it's EU but there are different version numbers. (or is that not impotant)
Thanks for your help everybody.
I think the problem is the battery. I bought a new battery, the evo3d batery and so far I have not had this issue again.
Problem is solved. I got a free board swap and now everything is working again. So it was a hardware defect.
Thanks for the help all.

[Q] LG P-999 (G2X) battery issues

hello, i have uploaded my rom to ICS and have it been using for the past 4 months
last week i came in to the issue of the battery status being unknown, 999% or 1000% battery power
i've fixed this issue in the past by flashing the rom
but this time i have trouble, it seems that ever time now that the phone is powered off and powered back on the battery status returns to 999%
i have uploaded the rom egb-nightly-2012-07-01-signed on my phone and no matter how many times i flash the battery status is lost
so i am here wondering if there is a simple fix to this, downloading a apk file or anther way to configure the phone so it will read my battery status or do i have to simply buy a new battery?
please help and thank you in advance
You sure you did the flash right?
Sent from my G2X using EaglesBlood build 5
Did you reset batt stats in recovery?
Also when this did happen to me, i was always told to just cycle AP mode, and it did work.
Yours seems more persistant though.
I would make sure batt is fully charged (charge it with phone off if your that unsure) and than first boot goto cwm and clear batt stats.

ok im flashing right now as we speak, this is what i am doing
wiped data/factroy reset - Done
wipe cache partition - Done
wipe dalvike cache - Done
and this time im also wiping battery stats - Done
installing egb-nightly-2012-07-01.zip - Done
wiped again in rom install file
installing gapps-ics-20120420=signed.zip - Done
phones first boot----battery status set 100%
unplugging phone now and rebooting - battery still reading 100%
reboot #2 - battery reading 100%
reboot #3 - battery reading 100% problem maybe fixed
if issue continue i will carry on with this forum
i seem to be having trouble with the quick reboot now... seems to be just powering down my phone....
I've had trouble with the reboot before in eaglesblood and to be frank I think its normal to some degree for most roms. As for the battery problem I've noticed in my experiences that if something like that were to occur it usually dealt with my kernel but I mostly run 7.2 and not ICS so there maybe some differences here.

thank you for the response
last night i modded the dpi and installed the market mods and rebooted the phone and the phone battery info crashed again...
anyways today i flashed my phone loaded a older version of ICS, reboot my device and the battery status is still working after i changed my dpi, for some reason i feel the issue is fixed now but i will post in the future if this issue carries on
thank you
ok i was updating framework animations and yet my battery went back to 999%... WTF
why is it doing this?
ive never had so much trouble with my phone
what am i doing to the phone that it makes it do this
i ask again could this be just battery issues?
I had a lot of issues with the phone reboot myself. That sounds crazy. My only issue I had was the date and time would not sync off my Sim card. Seems like a lot of people don't like the eb rom and I don't know why cuz I love it.

The battery shows you 999%?, maybe a baseband problem...
but like iron man would say... 999%??? cool....

there is no stable jellybean/cm10.x or ics/cm9.
your options with those are the hackfest versions that have no HWA, so no vid recording, some things like netflix don't work either.
Or you can have the non hackfest jellybean which has HWA but no working RIL. (NO MOBILE/CELLULAR ABILITY)
CM7, build 3-1-13 for LGP999 from get.cm
Than I'd suggest mazout360s kernel v205OC.
Also, look and see what your baseband is in under System Settings about phone. If you have the March 2012 basebands you also need to flash the base band fix.

I'm at work till 10pm so sorry if I.can't reply in a prompt fashion.
The guides should have told you everything you needed and order to flash.
You still need to let me know what your baseband is as well. It should be March 2012 since you mentioned you were on stock 2.3.4.
If thats true, than you need to flash the baseband fix. If I were you, since you didn't flash all at once, I'd start over and wipe everything.
So boot into CWM and
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache
goto advanced and wipe dalvik cache
goto mounts and format system
flash in this order( this is the order i use anyway)
flash cm7 rom
flash kernel
flash new baseband fix
flash gapps
than goto advanced and select fix permissions
reboot and wait 10 min
reboot wait 5 min
proceed with phone setup
reboot enjoy
links:
you already have the rom
gapps---> http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
if your on the march2012 baseband you will need this fix--->http://d-h.st/OkL
you can find a ton of kernels in my kernels thread link in my signature or going to G2x General Stickies section.

This phone does not have 4G, unless you are talking about HSPA+ which is not exactly 4G. The icon sometimes shows as 4G depending on the phone, but it is just a picture.

As I told you, if you flashed one of Adam's CM10 variants, you will have full HWA and I've heard it's pretty snappy, but the RIL was not working, so no cellular connection. CM7 is ok, there is still a lot of tweaking you can do.
