[Q] Installed G2X weapon ROM - T-Mobile LG G2x

But it randomly reboots itself? I didnt see this as a problem, unless I overlooked something. I can be texting and it just reboots itself or does it on its own without me doing anything to the phone.
Is this a known issue? I did a clean wipe with the most recent update install.
HELP!

No it's not a known issue at all. What rom were you coming from, also by "clean wipe" did you format system when coming from that rom?

Same here

I came from the eagle rom but wiped data, cache, etc...

I would reflash, I never had any reboots issues while using WeaponG2X.
Hercules, Hercules!!

I am having random reboots too.

Are you guys using cases? I haven't had a random reboot since I stopped using the speck case, and I've been running almost every version of weapon all the way up to 3.0

Running Weapon 2.8 with faux oc/uv kernel without any issues whatsoever. The only reason I'm not on v3 is because I really dig prepend/append battery text.

Same here - been with Weapon for some time now (3.0 currently). Have not had any random reboots. Stable rom.

My girl changed roms because of rebotes and she was coming an older version.
Edit older version if weapons, we thought it was theme so we did two clean wipes after. Formatted system also.

I just did a fresh install of 3.0 coming from CM7.1.0.1 and had a reboot within the first hour. Oh boy...
edit: simply replaced "no" with "boy"

I was having random reboots on weapon g3x 3.0 r1 almost 10 times a day. I was using the rotary lockscreen, and custom notification icons. I wiped everything even formatted /system and did a clean install. I now use AOSP lock screen as well as custom notification icons (m00nman's) and have not had a problem since.

Op states rotary lockscreen is unstable. Cheers

Update:
**Been up all weekend with no reboot. Everything is fast and working as it should.

I am running Weapon 3.0r1 and using the ASOP lock (not rotary) and I am having occasional reboots as well (now true I have had some random re-boots from the debloated Froyo ROM as well), I have also noticed that Tethering is not working either. ( I do have the updated SU, and the permissions set to allow tethering, but neither the USB or the Wi-Fi Tethering option seems to work. It does connect to other devices but it will NOT transfer data. Not sure what is going on, I do like the Weapon ROM, lotsa nice features, quick, etc. Just need to figure out why the tethering is not working and also turn off that damn shutter flash sound, If it were a real SLR the noise wouldnt bother me but this thing is digital, I don't need any fake sounds.
Is anyone else having tethering issues with this specific ROM, (if I flash back to the Froyo ROM, I can get data transfer through either the USB or the Wi-Fi Tethering, but not this ROM, any help would be appreciated.

CM7 #190 seems to be it for me

I love weapon but I always get a black screen and the reboots at least 3 times aday and that doesn't happen with cm7. Or mui rom

I love the ROM cause of all its customized features but I also believe that is the cause of its issues. I ran the ROM from the beginning always doing wipes cause I don' trust flashing over frameworks and stuff, plus I only have a couple apps that I install. Overall I noticed that with each huge customization came another issue weather it was reboot or something else. I rarely get reboots ever, on lots of different ROMS but weapon's latest gave me lots at least once a day if not more, on aosp lock screen and no real custom things done to it. I just liked the pull down notification and status widgets he had... I believe 2.8 was my oldest backup that was a great stable ROM for me.

I did a clean install, meaning format, clear data, clear coach all the good stuff... And I have been using the phone for the last 4 days with out turning off the phone, I have no reboot no gps problem, no problem at all.
Edit, I did not use any lock screen at all. I use an app to disable the lock screen, since there is no option in weapon to disable the lock screen.
G2x Weapon 3.0 R1

I did have random reboots the first couple of days after flashing weapon 3.0 R1 but it has settled down and I actually had my phone running for 6 days straight without a reboot or the dreaded sleep of death. The biggest thing is that I only use the ASOP lockscreen and I haven't been using bluetooth connected to my car (Nissan Rogue) lately. It may have just needed some time to 'settle in'. This has been the most stable ROM I've tried but I've only tried a couple.

Pls Healp - Froyo Notification Bar - i896

Hello,
I am using a Non rooted Rogers canada samsung captivate.
I recently upgraded through KIES to Froyo.
The two issues I am having are:
1) Wifi, i use juice defendor, so when i enter my house wifi is enabled automatically, many times, there is an error, and i cant click wifi on until a reboot, then it works fine for a while until it will happen again.
2) The notification bar doesn't slide down at times, and the only way to fix this is by rebooting. These two things are very annoying as they happen on a daily basis, or every other day.
I have seen these issues happen to others, so I know im not the only one, but I cant find a solution anywhere.
Any help would be appreciated.
anything i can do? would a factory reset help and a full reinstall?

It might but to be honest I have never seen a stock rom that is not buggier then any custom rom i have run. What you could try is start from scratch and see if the prob happens on an out of the box set up. If it does then it is an issue with the rom, if not then install your apps one by one to see if one of them is covering it. My advice? Grab one of the custom roms build from the Rogers 2.2 update like Cog or Firefly.
Try uninstalling juice defender.
I had the same problem with notification panel not sliding down after installing juice defender. I uninstalled it and the problem went away.
Did you solve the problem with the notification dropdown? Was it Juice Defender? I am experiencing the same issue.
I have problem number 2 too. No juice defender or any power saving tool or what not running in the background. Happens only once in a while although so its not killing me
Same problem here. I can't pin it to a specific program. But I think it has something to do with a certain notification because it always does it when I download a program or install a new program.
I've experienced both but after OCLF (which requires root) the notification bar issue doesn't happen. I've recently moved on to a stock kernel injected with voodoo lagfix (courtesy of supercurio) after having tried speedmod which gave me horrible battery life.
My battery life is good enough that I just leave wifi on all the time to avoid issue #1. When the wifi issue happened, going to airplane mode and back would fix it too without a full reboot.
k the best thing to do in your situation as people new to xda is if you are unrooted and want to stay that way go into the rogers store and say your touchscreen is buggy which to me seems like the issue you are having. also if your on the stock rogers 2.2 as i was for a coupple months all i can tell you is that its super buggy (as you could probobly tell from that terror they called an install). if your confident and want to get your feet wet with a great custom rom i would go with firefly that should fix any issues you have its a fuly stable final release and best part its based on rogers software not at&t so it will work flawlessly with the network and most likley fix any problems you are having
Don't use 100% pure stock
Use tweaked - with EXT4 LagFix, OC/UV, Sideloading enabled, rooted, VoodooSound, with GPS fixes.
Older Cognition 3.4 was Rogers based - I can recommend that.

SK4g Weird issues with ANY ROM...

I have the VZW D1 (Bugless Beast, CM6.xyz, CM7) and D2 (CM7), and never had issues such as these Samsung issues:
Upon installing ANY ROM, EVERYTHING works fine. I set everything up, and it all appears fine. I reboot. Might work fine, or might lag, and have missing buttons (e-mail Compose button graphic, or Missing graphic on WiFi toggle in the shade.)
When I do think everything is perfect, I reboot to recovery (via Quickboot, OR Clockwork) back it all up as-is. Then reboot, and it is whack again!
I am at a loss, and do not know what to do, maybe my initial ROM drop whacked out with the mounts!?
I wipe everything, including dalvik before, AND after the ROM is written, same issue every time... after a few reboots, WHACKO again.
Couldn't be Launcher Pro, could it?
Is there a Vanilla Build for this phone at all? (I HATE the TW dialer, as I come from the Moto World [Lean, mean, and basic]...)
there's only 3 roms available for the SK4G & CM6 or CM7 isn't it .

"I have the VZW D1 (Bugless Beast, CM6.xyz, CM7) and D2 (CM7)" hes talking about the the droid 1 and droid 2 when he said cm6 and cm7 not the sk4g try to help if you cant then dont post
as for your problem i would say did you check your mounts? this could be a problem also try to delete launcher pro then re download it!
there is currently no vanilla rom i wish though i heard someone was wroking on it over at rootzwiki but they havent updated the thread in forever so i dont know.
Is there any known issues with using Clockwork Rom Manager, or Quickboot (the one these builds come with, OR the one from the Market) to get into recovery?
Is there anyone running ROMs from here, and the "ShootMe" app for screen-scrapes?
Just trying to narrow this down to maybe a memory leak with my 1st real non-MotoDev.

[Q] Widgets slow

Running the infuse 4g i notice that to pick a widget there is a good 30 second to a minute delay no matter what launcher i am using. I have done two factory reset and the stock widget come up fast after the reboot but when you install an app with a widget there is a little delay. This is a none rooted factory fresh stock rom. Is it a bug with froyo that will be fixed with gingerbread or os it an issue? I hope this is the correct spot to post this-
What I did is download advance task killer free or pro. Don't matter. Anyways it kills the apps running in the back ground which wont nake the phone lag anymore

My initial guess is that RFS is sucking as usual. There's a reason an ext4 conversion is such a standard thing for cooked ROMs that it has a name - "Voodoo Lagfix".

Random Reboots

OK I'm tired of seeing people complain about random reboots even though its been discussed multiple times. So here's a true story to help you all out.
I was on octane 3.0 problem free when I decided to go to Valhalla black final. I had reboots and force close issues. I went back to octane 3.0 and started having annoying force close issues. Now I know its time to start fresh from stock since I haven't cleaned the gremlins out of my phone in so long.
So I download kies mini for the drivers (since I got a new laptop in December) and pop in a DVD that had a backup of all necessary files (odin, kc1 and whatever was in fbs original gb starter guide, I want to say kg4). I load the kc1 files in Odin and Odin freezes at checking connection.
I unplug my phone, pull the battery, reinsert the battery and put it back into download mode (which is now a pic of a phone with a cord running to a computer), I then restart Odin with the kc1 files and everything goes through fine. I then do the kg4 files, once that's done I reboot into cwm and flash bhundvens latest kernel with the newer version of cwm.
Once that's done I flash Valhalla black final fixed followed by Valhalla booster. Now I've been running flawlessly for over 24 hours so its about time to UV/OC. Once I UV/OC, if I start having issues I'll know I need to change my UV/OC values, since I wasn't having problems with stock voltage.
Alternatively you can use bhundvens heimdall package that already includes his latest kernel. I just stuck with the files I already had saved cause my home internet sucks.

Thanks... I'm planning to do pretty much the same this afternoon. I had the reboots, but they stopped for a few days when I reflashed rc1.1 kernel... started happening again yesterday, so I flashed 2d, but still getting reboots.
Figured it was time to start back from ground zero.
I only had reboots when attempting to access the messenger toggle at the lock screen, Drive smart, and battery history in spare parts.

1) mess. toggle= you have to set that via settings> tweaks (or edt tweaks)> lock screen settings> choose custom app
2) drive smart= labeled "bloat" & removed
3) spare parts= I don't believe there's gb support... Though you can access via settings> about phone> battery use
Hope this is helpful

Very helpful I appreciated it. =D, I just changed the lock screen and wasn't going to use those, they bare no real importance and the ROM functions amazingly.

To add to what QUIETLYloud wrote - Spare Parts is GB supported according to the app description in the market, but it also tells you not all phones store battery history and if your phone does not store it you will FC if you select that option within the app.
Add: I decided to uninstall Spare Parts that came with the ROM and download Spare Parts from the market. No more FC on battery history.

Is it a completely different version or just newer?
Installed this and still force close on battery history selection. Im batting 0-4 tonight. /sigh
yes the messageing icon will fc and cause a reboot if you do not assign a button to it... I should add that to the op its inteintally left un assigned so you can assign whatever you want to it though tweaks...
Spare parts battery status will fc it was the only version i had at the time but the newer one should be ok if you wipe the data from it then force close uninstall and download form market ... If not wait tell they add better support.
There are a couple Spare Parts in the market. The one I used was Spare Parts+ (no ads) by DroidGram. It worked for me.
The weird thing is using a widget for the battery shows the history just fine. Spare parts is a weird animal.
So, I flashed Bryan's d2 version of the kernel yesterday and am now going on 33 hours without a reboot.
I'll leave it on the charger for the night and see what uptime is in the morning, if no reboots over night then I'll flash back to 1.1 and see what happens.
speaking of charging.. I am at 73% battery life at 9 hours on battery, so bat life is looking good

I think it is newer. But if you are using the one from the market, make sure you removed the one that came with the ROM.
I'm on Bryans 1.1 which has yet to give me any problems.
I've been playing with UV settings (always OC'ed @ 1.2) trying to find the right settings for my phone. I think I'm finally making progress, I had been getting a reboot within 8 hours, on my current settings I've just hit 12.
Once I hit 24 hours up time I'll adjust again and see how it goes.
I have the random reboots to and i used the back to stock one click, but I still get the random reboots. However, it only happens when I restore my apps thru TB. Is it possible one of my apps has some sort of "virus" causing it to do that?
Actually TB causing problems is an issue that has been discussed. Personally it hasn't given me any issues, but I've read after flashing a new ROM you should only restore user apps. So don't restore app data or system apps.
Its worth a try anyway. Otherwise one app causing your problem is a possibility, but depending on how many apps you have it could take a while to restore one by one til finding the problem one.

I am having some random hangups followed by reboot when I'm using stock browser. I'm on rooted but stock GB KJ6 with stock kernel. I never had such behavior when using other apps. and it does not matter if OC or not.
Well, I'll try another browser for a while and will report back.

Applications taking forever to load

Basically what I'm experiencing is that at times, I'll click an icon for an app (it doesn't matter which app), and the entire TW launcher will freeze for about 10 seconds, doing nothing. Then, all of a sudden the application will appear and load normally. I've tried wiping normal /cache and Dalvik cache, and nothing helps.
Now when I say it freezes, I don't mean that the app loads and I see a white screen while it does it's normal loading process... what I mean is that I touch the "Twitter" app, and then my home screen completely freezes (I can't swipe to another screen or anything... it's just locked), and then 10 seconds later it decides to load stuff.
Let me say that I don't consider myself a noob. I'm very comfortable flashing ROMs, recoveries, doing nandroid backups, etc. I'm running CleanROM 2.0, and my bootloader is unlocked. I have CWM Touch 6.0.1.2 flashed from ROM Manager. This issue has happened on Synergy, too. AOSP ROMs seem to work just fine. I know it's not related to the TouchWiz launcher, because the same problem happens with Nova, too.
Right now I'm trying Imoseyon's LeanKernel 0.3 beta (non-kexec). Has anyone else experienced this problem? How do you fix it?
I just did. After I setup CPU profiles in ROM toolbox. I've used them before without issue. This time it was as you described. The solution was to reinstall ROM toolbox.
Perhaps you've recently used a program that directly interacts withe the kernel and perhaps its causing you woes
