[Q]Viper XL 2.1.2 random reboots - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

G'day everyone,
I have searched the forums all around for someone with a similar issue but am coming up with no relevant information.
Basically my issue is that my phone will randomly restart at really random intervals and sometimes continually restart and also other times will just restart once in the day. I have tried re flashing ViperXL without any apps and the stock kernal installed to try and trouble shoot the issue but it still seems to want to restart every now and then. I have had this crazy thought the other day that my phone only seems to restart when I am at home and also trying to connect to my WiFi network??
I have also tried other roms and for the most part the Paranoid Android rom and CM10 stock seem to run fairly well albeit with the occasional restart.
Can anyone shed some light on some things I should try to work through the problem and to solve it, I understand the basic principles of rooting and using adb but have not delved that far into the rabbit hole. :silly:
Anyway if anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers Skete
P.S Sorry if I have made a major error posting in here, just this was my first post and felt like I was running out of options

Try this:
Goto Settings->WiFi(Click the word, not the toggle)->Menu->Advanced
Change option "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" to "Always"
That worked for me. I've seen this problem before on other phones I've had. This was a real problem for MIUI back in version 1.
Theoretically, your battery life would suffer, but I have not experienced a battery life change. ViperXL battery is pretty great.
I had these reboots with the kernel that comes with ViperXL. This setting fixed the problem. I have since changed kernels to BeastMode. I left the setting on "Always" and I do not get reboots. Not sure if its an issue in BeastMode, but why change it if it works.

All he has to do is flash a new kernel. Beastmode v4.2 or elemental. Never used the WiFi always setting.
Just go flash a kernel for sense ROMs and you'll be fixed. Don't have to kill your battery.

I'm a newbie that recently rooted the At&t One X on 2.20 firmware. I have twrp recovery 2.3.1 flashed and installed ViperXL 2.1.2 rom. After a few days I noticed that when I turn off wifi and attempt to turn it back on, it will not turn on and display an error. When I reboot, the phone would hang on a white screen until I force a shut down with the power and volume button. Once I turn the phone back on, it boots back into viper and the wifi works as normal.
When I just keep the wifi turned on and move to different locations where I have a wifi hotspot saved, the phone will occasionally reboot.
Is this a kernel issue? If so, is there one preferred with ViperXL 2.1.2?

Still rebooting
Hello!
I have those random reboots on ViperXL 3.1.0 when phone is locked, I don't touch it. What must I do to not rebooting?

From what I remember there is a wifi firmware update zip that fixed the random reboots for the sense jellybean ROMs. It should be posted in the ViperXL thread.

Andriod Revolution HD 3.6.0 random rebooting

My phone is randomly rebooting for no reason it did it twice yesterday and this morning when the alarm I set went off it rebooted but got stuck on the beats bootup screen I woke this morning my phone felt like a hot iron. Has anyone had the same issues with this rom?

You know what, the same thing been happening to me for the last 4 dayswhich means the version b4 3.6.0 was doing it too. Yesterday was the 3rd time it did it... maybe we should post this on the ARHD thread instead of here tho
I've been trying out different versions of Android Revolution HD and they both gave me the same results screen over heats the battery over heats and the phone reboots randomly. so i decided to try a different rom i installed
Virtuous Sensation XE v.2.1.0 this morning and so far my phone has been working great no problems yet. the battery stays cool the screen is not heating up and no rebooting as of yet so i think i'm sticking with this rom if you haven't tried it i recommend you do. Here's the thread.

Hi,
The usual reason for random reboots is an incompatible mod or add-on.
Also,if you have upgraded from an earlier ROM and not done a Superwipe.
Or maybe using Titanium Backup to restore "SYSTEM DATA" from an older ROM using a different base.
It's probably kernel related, try to lower your overclock to 1.2Ghz in Daemon Controller or try another kernel, if so try Unity, I did resolved my bootloops issue with those.
Don't forget to remove virtuous_oc files if you decide to change kernel. See attachment for exact file name.
Hello. I have the same problem when I'm hit the home button, restarts suddenly. Will be the same problem, about the software?. Or may be hardware... I'm so worry because is new (only one month of use) and I bought it in Canada but I Live in Costa Rica

did you update the firmware to 3.24? sense 3.6 roms are supposed to be upgraded with this firmware
Try a different radio. Some radio may result in rebooting. You just need to flash a stable radio or flash the radio by the instruction given by who release it. I know that some radio may cause reboot problem without correct installation.

I am getting the random reboots and I am not sure the explanations given so far have answered the problem. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8013ZWYXAR and I installed Revolution HD 9.0 to a clean machine without issues. I don't think the rebooting issue is from incompatibility unless the Rom is incompatible with the devices it was created for as I have the system rebooting after rebooting with seconds of the first reboot. So if it is an incompatibility issue it is because the Rom is incompatible with the phones or tablets that the Rom was made for. I have a clean system with just the Revolution HD Rom and the files supplied and it still reboots. As far as the over heating goes I am not sure that is really the issue also as both the screen and the back are not hot in any way when it reboots.

Sleep mode enabled???

My Sensation 4G TMOUS has been randomly giving me a notification in my status bar saying "Sleep mode enabled" "Networks are disables when screen is off"
I can't find any option to turn it off! When I press the notification it takes me to the "Power" settings, but there is nothing there that references sleep mode??? I also can't clear it from the status bar...
Anyone else get this?

Same problem here...only a kill all process fives me back the internetz
I am running arhd ..I see other 2 people running the same rom and having the same issue
I'm running stock rom, and have also recently gotten these notifications. It comes and goes a couple times a day... Strange.
I'm having this issue too. I hate it. Did you guys tried downloading something from market while having this notification via wifi?
I realized that when I get this notification I can't download something on market although I can browse without a trouble. I can only download app via mobile network when I get this notification.
I hope we can find a solution.
Same here after installing CoreDroid 2.5. Even going back to a backup I did 4 hours before first notification occurs doesn't help - notification comes 15s after boot.
So I had to restore a different rom...
Any idea ?
Update: flashing over the same rom again solved my problem.

I tried this, but not working for Pyramid3D v8.1.0 XE from CdTDroiD.
Any changes people?
It seems the European based rom have this feature in the power settings. I've been running insertcoin and RCMega Mix and am able to turn it off.
I think the setting got enabled by flashing other roms, and just stuck no matter if I went back to stock or at TMOBUS rom.

I just started experiencing this issue yesterday. I flashed a bunch of roms then came back to ARHD 3.6.2. No matter what rom or kernel i try now I still get the same message. I make sure to flash super wipe every time so I don't know why I'm still getting this message. Any one know if it actually does put the phone in sleep mode the when screen is off or is it just an error message?
Glad to see I'm not the only one experiencing this issue.
Since installation of P3D 8.2.1 the issue is back, even when restoring CD2.5 which was running a few days before without this issue. SuperWipe or FullWipe and manual cleanup of SDCard didn't help too.
So where is this setting stored ??? Maybe activated by a Sense 3.5 ROM in Radio module ? Where else may this setting remain when clean system, data, cache and sdcard ?

Seems to be correct, AFAIK CoreDroid 2.5 and P3D 8.2.1 are on European base and shows this issue.
Energy Sense 3.0 based on TMOUS (pls correct me if I'm wrong) seems not to be affected by this works fine in my case.
Update: Bulletproof 1.4 doesn't have this issue too (TMOUS based too ?).

Even when You install a Sense 3.5 ROM ? Energy Sense 3.5 (my favorite) has an option for configuring exact this parameters in power menu, I think other Sense 3.5 based roms too.
Same problem here. ARHD 3.6.5.
I had this when I woke up this morning stock European ROM I did some googling and the only way I found to clear it is go to task manager and kill all tasks since doing this it hasn't returned

I think it only comes up on sense 3.0 roms cuz it doesn't have the performance extra option in the power menu. But I never had the issue it started after I switched to a sense 3.0 from a sense 3.5 rom.

My opinion too, but - cuz they had been working before - there must be a stored setting which still resists a full wipe. Where could it be ?
On the other side: BB 1.4 and Energy Sense 3.0 are not affected... What's the difference between them and the other roms (regarding this issue) ?

Not sure. In my case I used the super wipe script each time after trying a bunch of roms. I was thinking maybe I should try just wiping cache, dalvik and everything else? What method did u use for wiping before flashing. It seems it's not getting wiped and reset completely for some reason.

[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?

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.

router works, coz we are using several phones and notebook @home...

Or maybe if i get back to S-ON, unroot and restore complete stock...?

Hi,
The other thing worth considering are the 2 gold pins inside the phone,just above the camera lens.
GENTLY lift them to make a better contact.

I have this problem too. I've been using ViperS 1.1.0 for a few weeks without any wifi problem. Yesterday, the wifi was working like normal then in the evening I flashed HyperNonsense 3.3 just to try it. Didn't like it, so I restored nandroid of my ViperS, then flashed yank555's faux123 kernel v2.52. I only realised wifi is not working today morning. It just shows "Turning On", but nothing happens. Could it be kernel issue? Previously i was using yank555 v1.9 without any issue thoguh.
i also have the same problem with the wi fi turning on for 10 mins then it shows error
mine came with the initial ics ota update a very common problem i see on the net not only wifi but bluue tooth also not work
i installed the latest ota a week or so ago which cured a few bugs but still no wifi or bluetooth
so.... i did jb s offf , root etc installed CM9 this fixed the blue tooth and made the screen move reactive and smooth this is one cool ROM BUT still no wifi
any and all suggestions welcome but please consider i am a noob http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/confused.gif and may need a few signposts

I honestly don´t know, i thought, wifi is (almost)only kernel related, but now i see, that it is not :/ It is almost exactly my problem, i was using ViperS and changed kernel...but it didn´t suit me, so i restored the previous one...than i woke up and wifi is gone i cant solve it for now, i don´t have any freetime at this moment for making full stock condition.
i have tested stock rom with stock kernel, with some other HBOOT but still the same.

Your wifi stops working through an official update? You should claim it! it is not your fault...for me, everything works, except thing about wifi like tethering etc., thats a serious problem, even reflasing the whole phone (rom, radio, hboot, kernel) doesn't help :/
I had Xperia Arc before Sensation XE and reflash always helps, no matter what happens.

I thing, if you changed rom, kernel etc. and wifi is still not working, another rom will be no help i am afraid but take your chances! it is not working for me. I can flash any ROM, any Kernel and the result is the same...

I was messing around with it today while waiting for a meeting to start and I found where the wifi settings, etc are stored. It ended up being a corrupt/invalid wpa_supplicant.conf file. All I had to do was pull that file out from the directory and turn on wifi and *poof* it worked again. When I turned wifi on it created a new file and everything has been great so far this afternoon.
In case anyone wants to give it a shot who is having wifi issues you can find the wpa_supplicant.conf file in /data/misc/wifi/ directory on your phone. Simply cut/rename the file and put it somewhere else. If you have wifi passwords you want to save, you can open the original file using a text editor and copy the settings over to the new file.
I believe the cause of my issue was actually Titanium Backup. Looking at the last time it backed up my wifi settings was back when I wasn't running ICS yet. Yesterday I did restore an app using it and must have accidentally restored that old backup. Their formats are different from Gingerbread to ICS apparently and it was causing errors.
i found this on another post dont know if it will help but it could be the problem with the ota update from gb to ics
now the silly noob question how do you access the directory ????http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/advanced/sign.png
i got into the directory but it doesnt seem to work in another thread someone got it to work with a virtuous rom
ill try that on thr weekend
enjoy your vacation
hmmm thats iteresting, but if you do full-wipe and flash some rom and kernel, these files are rewriten...but because i am curious i tried it and!!! it is not working for me :-/
And how to get into this directory?Simply... download dome file manager from Play Market(i lika Total Commander), but you can use whatever you like, set in options "root function everywhere" and allow superuser. than you can go in any directory and read/write/change
EDIT: ou, now a see whole post, ignore my instruction i am mega-sleepy

I have this problem too. I've been using ViperS 1.1.0 for a few weeks without any wifi problem. Yesterday, the wifi was working like normal then in the evening I flashed HyperNonsense 3.3 just to try it. Didn't like it, so I restored nandroid of my ViperS, then flashed yank555's faux123 kernel v2.52. I only realised wifi is not working today morning. It just shows "Turning On", but nothing happens.

I fixed it by doing a full wipe, flashed ViperS 1.2.1, reboot, use the phone for a few minutes, then flashed Yank v2.52.

No help for me still the same "turning on"

any way to "format" my phone (Telstra XL) and start all over again?

I've been having problems with AOSP-based ROMs (always perform a factory/system and dalvik wipe). It's just not stable at all. symptoms usually starts with 3G/wifi connection going down (the icons turning gray) and all sorts of problems follows like blinking screen, pressing app drawer and it goes back to home screen and etc.
My phone was running JB OTA before and thus was on hboot 2.14. I have since use the s-off trick and have use the earliest ICS RUU I found for Telstra XL to get it to the hboot 1.09. I've tried installing AOSP-based rom using hboot 1.09 and hboot 2.14 (use OTA to update ICS to JB) and nothing seems to help.
The problems I'm experiencing is not present in ViperXL at all (on hboot 1.09 and 2.14) which lets me to believe it is AOSP related or phone just doesn't like AOSP. :/
I really wish to use AOSP so if you could suggest solutions/workaround, I'll appreciate it very much.
thanks!
FWIW I had similar problems with ViperXL. The "network tweaks" that are installed during the Aroma installer was my issue. I installed viper and everything was fine until I decided to switch to another ROM (CleanRom 5.1) to be exact. And then I switched to CM10. My signal was absolutely **** network icon would gray out and the button to turn on mobile network was stuck in the turning on phase at least %80 of the time (didn't happen in viper for some reason). Couldnt figure it out so I flashed Viper XL again and selected generic network tweak and everything's been fine since.

if you meant the telco-specific selection during install, I picked "stock" on my mine as the telco I'm with is not in the list.
this isn't really a solution but more of a test. try this rom i had the best network connection ever on this rom to this day, it is also a good rom and you might even use it as a daily driver.
