Weird problem, home button doesn't work - Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So two days ago i restarted my phone and after that my home button did nothing.
it would still wake the phone if it was locked. but other than that nothing.
all my settings for the status bar were reset too. (things like which toggles are there and indicator color etc,)
they were all reset to the default. (this includes the data connection getting turned on)
Since then i have tried two different roms and both of them ended up with the same problem.
It always happened on a random reboot. (i.e. it doesn't happen on the 1st reboot, but at a random reboot)
Anyone know what the problem is?

I dont know why this happens and there is no other way then to flash a new rom.
Wipe everything in recovery and flash a new rom thats the only solution!!

I haven't been,
usually i my max is 729 which has always worked fine.
but after this problem started i did go down to stock (600)
but the problem still occurs

729 is ok.
It might be due kernel or some app with root access.
Someone who cook Roms could explain the reason!!
Edit: Btw Which rom and kernel are you using??

Take provision.apk from the ROM's zip and put it in /system/app/
After that, set it's permissions to rw-r--r--(644) and reboot

I had this the other week, along with a couple of other little problems, ended up being that only factory reset would fix it. Don't know why it keeps coming back for you though.

CM7 freeze and reverts to boot animation

Is this the right place to post this?
Inspire 4G Rooted, S-OFF, Clockworked with Bubby's One Click, and attempted to flash CM7.
I can make it past the set up, all the way into the phone. Shortly after, it will just kind of randomly freeze up and go through the boot animation again and then take me to a lock screen. I can unlock it and go back into the phone, but it will almost immediately freeze and go back to the boot animation again.
Flashed 3 times, once on RC2 and twice on RC3, using ROM Manager 3.0.1.0, Clockwork 3.0.0.6, wiping data and cache each time.
Please help!
Did this happen when you were turning on Wifi?
Now that I think about it, the most recent flash I did, yes it did occur when I turned on Wifi...but I am not sure about the other times.
What would wifi have to do with it?

Its a known niggle with almost every CM build. It doesn't like wifi on the first boot. Let it come to the launcher screen and then reboot the phone. Things should go smoothly after that.
same thing happened to me. I just rebooted it a few times and problem solved. Had no idea that wifi was the problem though.
Awesome! Flashing now...
This works!!
Thanks again guys...

Flashing a Rom and Aroma freezes, what to do?

Hello Peeps,
I was trying to flash a rom yesterday and had something strange happen to me.
The rom featured Aroma installer and I had flashed this particular rom roughly 5 or 6 times with no issues.
Yesterday, I did a full wipe and tried to do a new install of this rom.
There was an option screen in aroma that allows you to choose your own mods and features or use the developers defaults.
I was on this screen trying to choose the developers defaults option and Aroma simply froze up.
It would not let me choose with version to flash.
The touch screen wouldnt respond and I didnt know what to do.
I searched google and found nothing.
I decided to do a battery pull.
I know that a batter pull during a flash is something we should never do as it will brick our phones.
In this case, as the flash had not actually started yet I decided to try it.
I pulled battery and booted into recovery and was able to restore a nanroid.
I am just curious if anyone else has had this issue?
How dangerous was it to pull my battery?
Could I have bricked my phone?
Phone has been working just fine, I am just wondering if there is another way to resolve an issue with Aroma like that?
Thank you,
I never had that problem as for the pull battery it is fine as long as you're not flashing.
I was installing a ROM on my sister's s3 when the aroma installer completely froze. I pulled the battery and it boot looped but wouldn't go into recovery until around the 10th or so time (vol up + home + power). Flashed it again and it worked fine...really weird.
As for bricking your phone I agree with above poster, it should be fine if you aren't flashing anything.

I've had this same issue happen a couple of times. It usually happens when I try to install the Jelly 'Beans' rom...sometimes it will work, sometimes it will freeze. I usually have to do a battery pull and recovery will come right back up. I've noticed this seems to happen the most when the phone has grown hot...so maybe it has something to do with RAM, etc.

[URGENT] Every reboot results in a factory reset

So today my droid started messing up, home and recents button didnt work. Google play store and whatnot couldnt access data, the signal status bar at the top was just grey.
So i factory reset it. During the reset it just sat there on the little screen with the spinning hexball thing for like an hour so i shut the phone off. Now every time the phone boots it just tries to wipe it again unless i go into the boot menu and hit normal boot.
Running stock rom and whatnot, but im rooted.
I know that theres a flag somewhere that it reads on boot saying to wipe it, but dang if i know what to change.
Thanks in advance
Well i unrooted my phone and tried to let it redo the factory reset again, and it still just wont do anything.

When this happens to me, it's because of a bad flash and a factory reset won't fix it. I would suggest reflashing stock...

I dont have a custom recovery or an unlocked bootloader.
I managed to get the problem sorted out through some unrooting and some non stock system file deletion. Installed safestrap and got blurry hd running on it now.
Thanks.

[Q] Restart loop(not bootloop) - really weird

Hey lads,
I got a really weird problem and I've tried nearly everything I can think of. I had EMUI 2.3(b121sp06) and I tried the online OTA update to b307 if I remember right(was automatically suggesting the update) and at the update screen it loaded to about 99% and then stopped. Said not to press power while on this screen but obviously it wasn't going to finish. So I reset the phone and it started the "recovery loop", so basically keep trying to apply the update. I had to flash CWM to break out and flashed the whole system by hand(recovery,system,boot,cache,cust and userdata img files) and it starts up but it keeps resetting and seemingly it's random. Android boots up, I don't touch the phone--> boom reset. Weird thing is it even does it in recovery.
If I really want to explain the problem it's like as if my finger got stuck on the power button(that naturally made me think that the button might be f*cked), but booting into fastboot and not having resets cleared my suspicion. What I also noticed is that every time it boots up it doesn't recognize the sim card and I have no signal or whatsoever.
Tried multi tool unbricking method -> doesn't work
Tried factory reset from stock recovery(had to be fast so it doesn't reset before) ->doesn't work
Tried wiping dalvik cache and factory reset from CWM ->doesn't work
Tried killing battery by letting it keep resetting -> battery drained, reset loop stopped ->put the phone on charger->reset loop started again
I have no f*cking clue how can I get out of this, will keep trying though. Any help is appreciated, thank you!
Hi
Did you try to remove the Sd Card ? Honor 6 reboot is often due to faulty SD Card.
Which model do you have ? L04 ?
B307 upgrade sure ?
Seb
Yes, that was my first idea, still does it though. I have the L02 and I'm not positive it was b307, but it started with 3, could be b303 if there is one.
I don't know for L02 but for L04 there is a Full ROM that you can flash with the three buttons method. (Vol+,Vol-, power and put the ROM in /dload folder on the SD card).
Maybe there is such thing for L02 ?
There is, but as I said the phone restarts even in recovery. It's like the phone restarts every 30 secs except for fastboot.
if it's not SD card or internal flash problem so, it seems to be hardware related to me (
Would make sense but it occurred only after I tried OTA. Would be really surprised if that killed that hardware :-/

Unfortunately not, I'm out of ideas, trying to negotiate with the seller to sort something out, I think the phone is beyond saving
Same thing happened with me. Don't have any solution. Have you fixed it?

Its might be a battery problem Or power flex cable. Try to turn on the phone during charge
guys im facing the same problem now... waiting for any solutions
I have tried stop & uninstall some app
I've tried as quickly as I can when the phone (nokia x) is on, then I stop> uninstall I consider potentially cause this problem (facebook, whatsapp, uc browser) and then it managed to prevent the continuous restarts. but problems arise even though the application had me uninstall and then I restart the phone. and it is back again, I uninstalled the app that has remained with the error settings and restart repeatedly. who knows what else : '(

In the past my battery lost it's endurance pretty much. Furthermore I've read that a defective battery causes lots of weird behaviours on our Honor 6, which was the same to mine.
In my case a replacement of the battery worked well, to get my Honor 6 back to life:

It's not that difficult and lasts approx. 30-45 mins. Spare Batteries are available for 6 - 10 bucks on ebay or directly from the chinese internet stores.

It's really important that we use original chargers for the health of our device.

Stock rom keeps corrupting, advice please.

Sorry if its been asked, i tried a search but couldnt match my problem.
I bought a used samsung s6 for my son, it seemed fine when we checked it.
But its got an odd bug where if it restarts it gets stuck on boot up.
I've used smart switch to reinstall the offical samsung stock rom
The re-install all his apps.
The phone works fine and re-boots fine.
But after a few days, if restarted it wont boot and just gets stuck on the boot loadung screen. None of the special boot options helps, clearing cache or reset.
The only fix is to use smart switch to do a complete wipe and reinstall official software.It has never had Knox tripped, and the guy didnt seem to be the type to run a custom rom.
It getting to be a pain as he cant turn his phone off and if his battery runs down gis ogone will become useless until i re-set it and wipe all his data and settings. Which I have to do on an almost weekly basis
I have a few questions...
Is it a hardware issue? (It the stock rom on a phone thats never been modded afaik)
anybody know whats causing this to bomb in stock firmware?
Any idea how to fix it?
Would a custom rom fix it?

I had this problem with my brand new S6 when I first got it. Yes, random reboots were occurring every now and then, which I could live with. Then one day it just got stuck at the boot logo and didn't boot no matter how many times I re-flashed stock firmware with Odin. Turns out it was an issue with the Main Board inside the phone. Once I got it repaired it's been fine ever since.

The reparations involved replacing the entire Main Board with a new one.
