Phone continues to randomly reboot even with new radios

I have tried 4 different radios and this phone still randomly reboots with frequency. I am the the 802 radio and it seems even worse then earlier radios. I am currently on gingerritis rom which i installed yesterday and have probably had 12 reboots since then.
Is it a combination of the rom and radio, or does just the radio make the phone reboot? I am really just tempted to flash it back to stock, sell it with the warning of this phone enjoys random reboots and get another phone.
while i typed this up it just rebooted twice on its own

I dont think the radio is what is going to fix the reboot issue. I know for some of the roms the fix was flashing the ziggy kernel.
Maybe give that a shot.

If hes using gingeritis, hes already using ziggy's kernel. Sounds weird i know, but try a new battery

i think overclocking to high and all the kernel cpu mods are whats causing this, not the radios.

I agree. Ziggy's stock voltage settings are very conservative north of about 1.5GHz. If you're tweaking it, definitely pay attention to the voltage.

nope not touching voltage or overclocking, i just put rom on thats about as far as i go tweaking phone.
Installed M0N0LITHTH3ORY rom and so far no reboots today, the gingeritis one must hate my phone cause in the less than 24 hours it was on the phone damn thing rebooted easy 10 times. But now this one is giving me some unexpected errors with weather app. I will give this one a week and see how it does and if no good on to next rom i guess.

Have you ever formatted /system?

yeah every time i put new rom i go into clockwork recovery
i wipe / factory reset
then format /system /cache /data
and wipe davlik cache
then install rom

double post...

i know my phone didnt like a few different roms. try a diffeerent one. also try doing each step 3 times. i did that after my phone rebooted on an a0sp rom by droidtheroy, after that it worked just fine on the rom that was rebooting

You know what? I was having the same problem and tired as hell of my TB. I was so tired of the little problems and the large rebooting problem that I had learned to really hate this phone.
A few days ago I decided to just use the new leaked, stock, unrooted, GB 210 RUU and give that one more try before I either took a hammer to this phone or unrooted and tried to get VZW to replace it.
I've had the latest leaked RUU on this phone for a few days now and I'm loving it again. Yeah, stock, unrooted, but also super fast GPS locking, fast 3g/LTE switching, no more reboots, not one. Battery is actually not bad at all after turning off a few of the stock bloat like Blockbuster. The gui is fast and smooth, I can't say whether or not it is as fast as it was when I was running custom ROMs but as far as I'm concerned its a big who cares. I now have a nicely working phone again. This is just my experience and my opinion, YMMV!

I got reboots with gingeritis and liquid ROMs, I've had no reboots in a week now running Virus' Synergy ROM. Try a different ROM, it should fix your problems.
Here's a link to Virus' work:

Second the ROM recommendation. Try a different one. I had the same issue with wanting to grenade this thing until I found a combo of ROM and radio that was stable for my use and applications.
Now I wouldn't think of tossing this phone.

Stability and battery life good for me with stock 1.70.605.0. Currently at 868 hours uptime.

yeah i am on monolith rom and so far no reboots, i am going to give this one a shot for now, hopefully this cures it.

infuse is really slow with any rom (whats going on?

alright guys so something seems to be up with my infuse 4g, pretty much all of a sudden regardless of which rom i run (including cm7 which is normally really fast)
my phone has been running very slowly or freezing.
this is happening even if i go through this back to stock process:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1318160
or gtg's unbrick.
do you guys have any ideas about what i could try or anything i can do?

"Running slow" just isn't descriptive enough. Can you use more detail? Is there any activity that you do that consistently causes lag or slowness? Have you made sure there's no undervolting settings you left in by accident? What does your system report your CPU speed as? Try and be as descriptive as possible.

I would suggest go back to stock, and factory reset the phone in stock.
My phone gets kinda slow every so many flashes, that's when i decide to go back to stock and reset.
So go back to stock factory reset. then flash the community kernel then your set up (rom, kernel, tweaks and what not)
then see how if it performing then.

Did this help at all? I'm having a smiliar issue after a random reboot on cm7 port.
it takes a while to boot up and it loads items in the launcher extremely slow. swiping through pages in the launcher also takes a great deal of force. I don't want to completely wipe if i can avoid it. it takes alot of time.
I've tried wiping cache, data, etc. I've also tried restoring an older backup, it looks like it's slow even in the recovery.
**Update: i rebooted my phone after a restore and it looks like it's working better. yay!

I am having this issue.
i am not sure what the problem is, however it happened to me when i switched from ICS back to CM7
i fixed permissions and seems to be faster. will update if this didnt stick permanently.

[Q] Help

I'm having some issues with my S 4g. After leaving my phone alone, such as charging it over night. I'll wake up with it booted in to recovery, or as soon as I go to use it I'll get a lot of force closures. I've tried different ROMS I've tried wipping every thing that can be wiped and doing clean installs and it still happens.
At first I thought it was from my alarm app, so I stopped using it. That didn't help. Thought it might be deep idle, so I stopped using that, still happens. Does anyone have an idea what could be causing this? It's making my phone quite un-usable. I'm current on CM9 nightlies, this first started when I went to the CM9 RC1.

You need to provide more info.
Kernel, clock speeds, voltages etc.

If all else fails, you can always use ODIN to flash factory images of ICS and root from there.

I'm still using the kernel that came with CM9. I hadn't flashed a new one on to it. So those would be the stock clock speeds and voltages.
It's really weird, as long as I'm using my phone it's fine, but if I leave it alone for a while it misbehaves.... kinda like my kid.

Delete..........

I tried going back to completely stock, re-rooted my phone and doing a fresh install of cm9. Didn't help anything. Switched to a different Rom and no issues so far

What is killing my phone's performance?

Hi all,
I've been struggling for the past few months with terrible performance issues on my Droid Charge. Things like redrawing the home screen and lag between switching programs I can live with, but when it takes several minutes to pull up the dialer to make a phone call or to answer a text message, my phone kind of stops being useful as a phone.
I started off on stock when I got the phone last year, then I rooted it a few months later. Everything was great until June. Gradually, my phone had become less responsive (taking forever to make calls, view and send texts). That plus something weird was eating >2GB data/month, and I could only identify it as "Android OS/others" via Onavo. I decided to go clean and try Tweaked 2.2w/PBJ. Things were pretty good for a couple of weeks until the major lag started coming back. I stepped back and uninstalled many apps, hoping to find one that was the main culprit, but my phone continues to act like it's trying to calculate a billion values of pi or something.
I tried following the steps from the rootzwiki "5 Steps to Keep Your Phone Snappy/Lagfree" (not allowed to link yet ), which helped somewhat, but it has not eliminated the problem. I often find myself resetting my phone to make phone calls. SwiftKey often doesn't load correctly and requires me to enter and exit applications frequently to get it to allow me to type. I had to wait nearly 2 minutes to get my home screen to display until I removed Holo Launcher and went back to TouchWiz.
Sorry for the essay--I'd be happy to provide additional details if needed. What can I do to a) figure out what's wrong with my phone and b) fix it?
Thanks in advance!

could any number of issues - ranging from a rogue app to the ROM not sticking correctly. when you installed Tweaked, did you do it via CWM or ODIN?
also, did you enable the build.prop tweaks to help with redraws and making calls?
otherwise, I would suggest to try wiping cache and dalvik (sometimes that cleans it up a bit as well rebooting the phone once every few days) to help clear out some of the clutter.
do you have any "force close" messages (such as SyncMLSvc)?

Thanks for the quick reply.
I installed Tweaked through ODIN. I haven't heard about the build.prop tweaks though. Is there a resource you can point me to or a quick process to enabling them? I thought that a lot of these tweaks were "cooked" into the Tweaked ROM.
I've got App Cache Cleaner dejunking me every 4 hours, and I try and hit the davlik every day...I still have issues.
I do have the SyncMLSvc force close on boot. I figured it was a known bug in Tweaked and that it'd be addressed in a later revision. Is it a symptom of something more ominous?

i don't use App cache cleaner, and thus do not have any issues. also, if you have TiBu, you can uninstall that syncmlsvc. see if that does the trick.
regarding the build.prop tweak, remove the # from ro.home_app_adj=1
here is a link to some others: http://www.s3forums.com/forum/galaxy-s3-hacking-mods/474-list-some-build-prop-tweaks.html

Do you have facebook installed? That P.O.S. kills my phone everytime. I install it from time to time just to see if they are coming close to fixing it. Needless to say it gets uninstalled in under 10 minutes.
I know everybody will jump all over me on this but why not try stock rooted FP5 for a couple of days. It will give you a baseline to compare other roms and app impact with. If your phone still acts up it would seem to be pointing to a hardware error IMHO.
What can it hurt?

Most importantly out of everything is to always check out your md5's and make sure they match. Also try going back to stock with the pit file too for a full fresh install. But I think the problem is the md5 sums unless you download apps off the internet
Edit: also remember to mount system when flashing roms

So, an update: I thought it was SwiftKey that was killing my phone, because I was doing better after I removed it. It was crappified even then, even after removing Facebook. I bit the bullet yesterday and went back to stock, updated all the way to FP5. I kept Facebook off (I've mostly moved over to G+ anyways). Everything is great. I put SwiftKey back on, and everything is still great.
I hate to say it, but even though the loss of customization in Tweaked is disappointing, I'm more satisfied with the phone in general with the stock ROM. My battery even lasts more than 3 hours too.
If it ain't broke...

my phone usually has that affect after flashing a new ROM. basically it's the wiping of data and cache/dalvik that helps cleans out the problems.

Maybe...but I've been wiping the cache/davlik fairly often. I had uninstalled most my apps...maybe some weird bug was still manifesting itself. I don't think my phone has been this responsive even after first going to Tweaked. :-/

Well as long as your happy that's all that really matters. To be fair - there is nothing in Tweaked that should degrade performance at all compared to what is normally seen in stock. The one difference I could see is that Tweaked is deodexed - and many swear the odexed approach is faster/snappier/whatever-adjective-you-want-to-say-that-means-better than the deodexed one. Hopefully things stay functioning well.

I hear ya. I figure I'll give stock a go for a while, at least until Tweaked comes out of beta. I'm still counting down the days until I can upgrade to something with ICS. Or maybe even a Lumia 920...

I tried forever to get PBJ to play nice. RFS & ext4. Gemini App Manager autostart tweaks. MinFree tweaks. All the TweakTool init.d tweaks. The SQL index tweaks. overclocking. Autokiller, other memory apps, JuiceDefender, other build.prop tweaks, etc. I tried it all...
I'm not sure if it was my hardware version or what, but I just could not get it to work well. It always seemed like it ran out of memory and couldn't automatically manage the apps in an overloaded situation. If i manually ran some of the SQL scripts, and killed running apps, it would be ok, but not for long. I had problems losing text messages because I think the text message handler got killed or didn't run in time. I've tried GoSMS and the stock SMS. I ended up relying on Ghostly SMS to help catch the texts I lost.
Once I went back to stock FP1, most of my problems went away. It's been much more stable. So, since then, it's been stock kernel (obviously on RFS). I've been on FP5 with various versions of Tweaked 3 beta/RC and now I'm no the final. All good.
So, as much promise PBJ has or had (who knows what the FP1/FP5 hybrid will turn out like), stock kernel with Tweak 3 is the way to go for me!

You're 100% correct!!

Please correct me if I'm wrong because I really want to know. The way I see it is, the real improvements over FP1 came from what Samsung did with FP5. Then what Dwitherell did was remove the useless bloat and ugliness then add the useful features and beautify it without changing anything that would hurt the performance.
The first time I upgraded to FP5 stock I noticed the speed increase right off. I checked it out a little and was amazed. But of course it had all of Verizon's bloat garbage in it and none of the awesome tweaks from Dwith. And it had no user installed apps in it at all. It has always seemed like the more apps I install the slower the phone gets.
So am I right?

ViperXL 3.2.8 Lag problem

I haven't had any problems for the longest time.. but......
well my problem is very random. recently i have picked up lag. for the longest time the ROM was nothing but smoothness. now there is lag. i reboot it and it goes away and shows up the next day.
i took the extreme measure of wiping everything and reflashing the ROM. but still I am encountering the same. Oh and I am "Stock" on minfree settings in Venom tweaks
Did anyone of you experience this as well? While rebooting is not a big deal,i would rather not do it. Any help is hugely appreciated!
Thank you....

Lag issues have been discussed on the ViperXL thread quite a bit. Just search the thread using the term "lagfix".

Thanks Redpoint.
I downloaded the lagfix app. it finishes running in under 1/2 a minute but it doesn't seem to fix the issue. I just backup-ed and restored the ROM. not sure if the lag will show up tomorrow.
Someone did suggest un-checking the infinite scrolling in Venom Tweaks, Let's see if it fixes it.

If your SD card is pretty full, this will also cause lag on ViperXL, and some other JB ROMs. If you have less than 1 or 2 GB free, try clearing up your SD card.

I also have this problem and only on viper and it starts a few hours after install I can't seem to do anything to fix it so I have given up on the Rom

Thanks Redpoint. I have 9GB free on my SD card. But to report on what I see in the past 24 hours - no lag whatsoever after the backup and restore routine.
Another thing which I did was uninstalled Bulletproof Kernel. For some reason, I feel my phone is more reliable with the stock kernel and I do not know much about the kernels to try Elemental.
EDIT1: Sad to report that the lag when scrolling between screens has returned. running lagfix did not help

I had the same problem. Full wiped, flashed 3.2.7 then 3.2.8 update. Stock kernel, uptime of 36 days and still fast as hell.

When you say full-wipe, did you wipe the storage and android secure? or just the Cache, Dalvik Cache, Factory Reset and System?
PS Rooting for the Aussies to thrash the Pommies.

Do you use Google+ on your phone? I have discovered that, if you open Google+ and do as much as BROWSE your photos swiping left or right to go next/previous, it will trigger major lag, especially on home screen,until you reboot.
Its a pretty major bug that happens on Sense. I have to browse my photos by only looking at thumbnail view and opening by tapping on them. No swiping left or right or it will trigger the bug and it gets pretty bad.

Thanks. unfortunately, i did not use google+.. i just flashed cyanogenmod nightlies and it is buttery smooth. not sure what is causing the lag in ViperXL. and i absolutely love ViperXL.. it has always been good to me. I just wiped everything in the "Wipe" menu and restored it using Nandroid back-up..
and have been getting lags ever since...

Restoring a nandroid basically negates the wipes you just did (aside from maybe wipe cache).

Are you running a custom kernel? If you're using ElementalX, do NOT enable zram. Disabling zram and changing minfree to stock completely rid my phone of any lag whatsoever.

I'm having the exact same issue with Viper on my evita -- only swping between homescreen and exiting to home screen lags. I've seen this with Nova, Apex and Action Launcher. Reboot solves it temporarily but the lag comes back after some time, from a few hours to several days.
For me, this is literally the only issue on Viper. Rom is great on every single other aspect!

So recently, I flashed stock 3.2.7 and OTAed to 3.2.8. works great. no lag whatsoever. I thought why not flash bulletproof. I flashed the 1.3 version which is on the venom hub. and you know what the lag came back.
i have heard people say this - not all devices are the same. like for some there was a navigation crashing issue and for some it worked flawlessly. (why this happens is a different discussion altogether).
So maybe our devices don't do too well with custom kernels!

First off that's an old version of the kernel.
Second, I don't suggest flashing kernels from venom hub
Factory reset should be done prior to flashing a kernel so if you did not....

EDIT: Almost immediately after installing the kernel the lag returned!
EDIT2: After a day of no lag, it returned first thing in the morning
Conclusion: No more custom kernel for me, unfortunately. At least not on Sense based ROMs
