Random reboots and infused issues.

Need some advice. I have been running infused 1.5 since the release. I have loved it so far, but for the last week or so I have had many issues with random shut downs and lock ups. Also, applications that used to work, no longer work properly. So my question is, what should I try. Just remember downloading infused 1.5 and re installing? Or completely going back to stock and advancing from there? I'm not completely savy with all this android stuff. So any advice would be helpful. Thanks in advance

Go back to stock for a week or so. I know it might hurt like hell, but it'll give you some perspective.

I'm having the issue on stock... sometimes I check my phone and the power is off or it's in a state of where I have to hold power for 10 seconds to get it to restart. Getting frustrated with Samsung's issues. :-( I never had these issues with my HTC.

Hmm, maybe a bad app corrupted things?
I'm very stable with Infused 1.5.0 + a modified Infusion kernel variant.
The Infusion kernel should be very stable if you do not use the overclock/undervolt features. You can even get a stable device when using those features, IF you are careful and methodical about choosing your voltage settings.

Yeah I'm assuming a bad app has corrupted it.... just don't really want to do a factory restore until either Gingerbread is available, or a viable ROM that I can put on it. With the stagnant development for the phone, I'm just waiting until one or the other happens.

Yeah ive had this same problem before. It was an app causing the problem. Started deleting apps, and never happened again ever since

Now I just need to figure out which app, haha

(Q) lockup even after GB

Ok so even before GB my phone would lockup and forces me to do a restart just to get it working, and now even after the update that still happens. Am I the only one who is having that problem?

Mine is doing the same things but even more than before GB. It doesn't reboot randomly but it lags (in the browser and sometimes when using the keyboard - I use SwiftKey) and freezes a lot to the point of me having to remove the battery.
I'm new to Android but I think I'm ready to get a custom rom on this. Any advice?

after the GB updates, mine is behaving not that different. It now restarts itself when i plug it in for charging and plug out from charging. Anyone having this kind of problem?
Tmobile tech team is now not doing the exchange any more, instead they are telling me to go to nearest store to investigate the problem.....looks like i'm stuck with this device......
with the GB update, the battery looks good. It does not drain out like it used to be before.

Yeah its really getting on my nerves. lastnight it locked up so much i just switched it off and went on my iphone. i might call customer care and get a replacement and see if that works better.

Any of you try and to a factory reset?
I've been running since the day of the release and the phone locked up only once while left on the dash and got extremely warm.
Every issue I've had has been fixed, the phone runs unbelievably well for me.

yea i factory reset and it still happens. only thing i cant complain on is improved battery life, but what good is that when my POS phone locks up lol.

The lockups are a hardware issue. It still exists even on different Kernels. Just request a replacement.

I've had lock ups before. Flash cwm and start trying some roms. I no longer have any problems and there are really some great roms out for this phone. Just make sure to wipe everything and backup each time to be safe. There's no reason not to try them, much of then are far better performance wise than stock.

What rom are you running? I had lockups with the cm7 nightly and eaglesblood (even more than stock).

I absolutely love my G2x, but Im having a few issues

My first issue with my G2x is that when I put my phone in my pocket somtimes and I ull it out to chck for any new text or anything. It has poweed off on its own and I have to power it back on. This usually happens like 3 or 4 times a day.
Second issue is that anytime I make or receive a phone call my phone automatically has the speakerphone on. This happen been happening since day one, rather it is rooted or not.
Third is not actually with the G2x, its more to do with Tmobile.. I have had three replacement phones since I bought my G2x and I asked Tmo CC if I could get a different phone since I have had so many problems with the G2x and have had three replacements within the last two months. And they told me the only other phone I could get was the Sidekick 4G... WTF!!!!!!!! If I wanted to downgrade I would just use my G2 or G1.
Has anyone else had either of these issues, if so how can I fix it? Cuz I refuse to get the Sidekick 4G and dont want to keep having to get relacement.

With TMO it seems like you must get a little lucky. It all depends on the representative you get. I have had better success with being nice and speaking with the next in command. TMO has far surpassed my expectations many times.

What os are you running? Stock? Is it rooted? Have you tried cm7?
I was lucky and got a phone with little to no issues. I do know some folks that had the black screen of death ran cm7 and it went away.

My current G2x is rooted running Weapons 3.0 with the ICS Theme and Droid Bionic Boot Animation. But the others were stock with the Clockmod Recovery flashed to them.

I still get the problems in stock too.I ran MIUI for a while, it didn't have those problems. I installed weapon to get wifi calling. I think CM7 based roms don't suffer from the issues.

I use to have the MyTouch 4g and I had to have it replace 3 times with in a 2 month period. T-Mobile allowed me to replace it with the G2X. So I would contact T-Mobile again and talk to a supervisor. It's better to talk with them and they can help you get a better phone. All they have to do is see how many times you replace the phone. They can look it up and then help you get a new better phone. If they don't threaten to go somewhere else, i'll bet they will help then.

Lol, yea well Im going to have to do that cuz it is getting very annoying to have to turn off the speaker everytime I make or receive a call. And the random powering off is even more annoying.

For the random powering off, have you tried different roms. I'm currently using the Bionix Reloaded rom with the dragon kernel specifically for this rom. I haven't had any real issues. My phone has rebooted twice first week but it was a data issue. Mr. Apocalypse is currently working on the issue and will have a new release out soon. I haven't had any more issues after the first week. Ive had the rom for about 3 weeks.
Also, I did noticed when I used SetCpu and overclocked my phone it heated up really quickly so I had to set it back to it regular clock speeds.

Select "stay awake" in your settings/applications/development. That should help with your screen not turning on when it sleeps also know as (SOD) screen of death. Download the free app "Stay Awake" from the market and you will never have a random reboot again. Its bad on battery life but its much better then missing calls,texts,or alarm clocks.

And its not the ROM your using its the hardware LG built the phone with. I have a LG smart TV that reboots after prolonged use too. I've tried every 3rd party ROM out there and still had random reboots. The best fix I found is my prior post and I run weapon 3.0 with faux kernel.

Correction ... the app is called "always awake" my bad.

My g2x got a lot of shutdowns on weapon only got one using Tsugi and the custom kernel
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

go for latest eagles blood (his own version not the kang) with latest Trinity elp kernel. Not had one reset, shut down, or hardly any problem at all. I only use roms where I have zero issues, not sure why anyone would do any different.
Honestly with your problems though (as long as your wiping everything when you flash) seem like an actual problem with the phone for sure.

use Tsugi
and flash the p990 cam do not do not do not use and other kernel

[Q] Service drops

Hey guys,
I'm running InfinityROM on my Charge. Throughout the day, I'll look at my phone and see that there is no mobile data (4g) coming to my phone, theres no bar to judge what is coming in or anything. If I turn mobile data on and off sometimes it will come back after 4-5 minutes, otherwise a restart brings it back. But it gets really annoying trying to get on the internet for a quick answer and it turns out to be a 10 minute procedure to get what I needed. What's going [email protected][email protected]?

For some reason maybe the Sim went bad.

I've been having that problem too. Seems that its been getting better through.

I feel like it may be infinity rom, once I installed it the service drops began, I lost root access, phone has just been overall freaking out. Should I just reroot from scratch? Or just do another rom?

You should try tweakstock rom, it's the best, very stable, not service or lte drops. Infinity has quite a bit of weird issues. I have tried infinity, eclipse and tweakstock, I found tweakstock is the best since it's very close to stock rom.

For now, i would agree with the suggestions of Tweakstock. Until Eclipse is fully finished (with Eclipse Parts) it is the best.

Service drops are not typically associated with any particular rom really. It may be a network issue in your area, a sim card problem, etc. - but it's extremely doubtful that what rom you are running would influence this. I suppose I can only speak of tweakstock, but I've done nothing to it that in any way changes service/connection functions compared to plain-old stock.

Yes, the previous post is 100% correct. This service drops has something to do with your radio and hardware. I would Odin back to stock with PIT file, then try and see if you still have the issue. I had this issue in the beginning and I was a noob then, I called Verizon, they first send me a new SIM card, that's not working and finally they send me another phone, still same issue. then GB 2.3.6 leaks arrived and I flash this before the OTA....and yes it fixed my call drops issue. And that is the last thing I heard of calls drop for my Charge. Yours maybe different but in order to pinpoint the issue go all the way back to original stock and if the issue persist then call Verizon for another phone.

beans custom rom + phone info app= no 4g

Youve been warned. Do not mix the above. if you switch to 3g you wont be able to switch back to 4g.
VERIZON GALAXY S 3

I can vouch for this issue.

Happened to me also . Although for me I just had to restore a nandroid before the theme was flashed to fix it

As can I

DAMN, wish I would have seen this earlier. I thought it was just my phone or that I was doing something wrong. spend several hours trying to figure out what was going on! I finally gave up earlier today and called it quits on the theme anyway. dont need it, just dont like the clock centered in beanstock R2. Bean 3.1 and v5 have the clock to the right but I didn't get as battery life with them. back to R2 now with no theme.

What specific interactions are causing the 4g issues? I have both and still have a very strong 4g signal ...

The theme looks amazing, but I lose systemui.apk and have no wallpaper. Am I missing something? Md5 matches.

using phoneinfo to change it from LTE/CDMA/EVDO to anything else, you can switch off it fine but if you try and change it back then it won't go back and will be stuck at CDMA auto prl.

Is there anyway to fix it?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

This theme is kick a$$, I hope that a fix is coming soon. Right now I have not played with phoneinfo yet and still have 4g. Everything seems to be running fine and Google Wallet is working too. The only thing I see that gives me a hard time is when I try wifi off, I have to reboot the phone to get wifi back on. But that's it, tethering is works, data works, phone is fast, calls are clear and the theme is great. Thank you for the great theme!!!!!!! Hoping for a fix soon for others....

Not sure if it's just jellybomb but I was only on stock beans build 6 and it didn't switch back.

I think its an issue with all Bean Roms. Even on R2 it was an issue. its the main reason I switched to synergy. Now I'm back on R2 because I like it better than synergy. I'm just running the R2 without the theme. wasn't huge on the center clock at first but I'm adjusting to like it.

Saaaame issue. I tried going in to recovery, wiping caches and dirty flashing the rom again but it didn't work. Then I tried wiping data & caches and I reflashed the rom and it's STILL stuck on CDMA auto (PRL)...ugh.
The worst part is that I was just messing around with it, I didn't have a specific reason to change it.
