Phone Rebooting TOO MUCH - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is really weird as my phone keeps rebooting especially when i'm on a somewhat lengthy phone call. The phone will turn dark and when i move it away from my ear the light will not come back on. About 30 seconds or a minute later, the phone reboots. This is so annoying and am looking for a solution. I heard that manually rebooting your phone can help out. Any other solutions that can help with this situation?

Ok,
Are you rooted?
If so, what ROM are you running?
What Kernel are you running?
The more details about the phone, the better

Need a bit more information. Rooted? ROM? Kernel? Up time before reboots start?

Sorry GIS but had to head out for a minute. Anyway I'm rooted and running Slim 2.9 ROM. My dumbass pretty much leaves my phone on and now think that's why I'm having this issue.
And in using the kernel which is included in the ROM, which is the Bedalus Marmite kernel.

Have you tweaked anything on the ROM like over clocking, under clocking etc. If so please specify to what extent as well.

No basically i have kept everything as is. No over or underclocking. And don't know if i have said it already but i am rooted. Now i'm running the SlimBean ROM and thus far it has not given me any trouble but still am wondeering what could be causing the problem.

Random reboots are a reported thing with Marmite that is being worked on. Try flashing another kernel like Matr1x. Us the CM cfs version. Flash it and let it settle in and report back in a few days. Marmite uses bigmem and not every phone agrees with it.
Let me know the turnout.

To mdean and Useless Sniper:
Again i want to thank both of you for your help. I flashed the Matr1x 24.0 CFS CM kernel and thus far it's working out great. granted it's only been roughly 12 hours but i had made calls without any reboots or any problems. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed but i'm sure with all the knowledge and info you guys gave me, this will probably be the end of my troubles. Thanks again.

Sorry about that. Reboots seem to be solved. Next version of slim should be fine.

G2x running stock froyo, Trinity kernal, and pimp my CPU BT toggle turns phone off?

My phone is running great but I can't turn off my Bluetooth and I don't want it eating battery for no reason. Whenever I attempt to turn it off it shuts my phone off instead (whether I do it through a widget or settings) If anyone has experiences this issue please help me out. Thank you guys.

This isnt the right section.... Read the rules
And stock rom as in? Try flashing eb 1.04... also make sure u have the right kernel.... You might have downloaded a gb kernel by mistake

Which Trinity kernel are you using? Right now there aren't any listed for stock ROM.
Also as has already been said this should be in a different section.
If he really flashed trinity on a stock rom and that's the only problem then someone should let Morfic know, maybe we can finally get a stock OC kernal, I've been waiting for one since I got the phone.

Yea I did, and the bluetooth issue comes about AFTER overclocking with pimpmycpu. I tried uninstalling but the problem doesn't go away so I went back to stock with Paul's Patch and everything is fine. Kinda sucks because my phone was real fast. Also when Paul's Patch and Trinity are applied together I wasn't getting sound at boot animation and I'm OCD so it did bother me lol
and if you guys are wondering I flashed the 2 following trinity versions: (without paul's patch and still got the bluetooth issue)
Trinity15 G2x - EB1.04 Froyo - EXT4 - Vibrator works, usb mounting might not
Trinity15 G2x - EB104F - EXT4 - vibrator works (new 5/16/2011), possibly usb mounting doesn't work
Usb mounting didn't work but all you need is a Multi-Mount SD card application and you're good.
UPDATE: Just redid my phone to complete stock and it seems that the bluetooth issue is still there, I think I found exactly where it's coming from and has nothing to do with the kernal or the patch. the issue comes up only after I restored my application data and apks with my backup pro so I'm guessing something is corrupt "/
mods...please move this thread
and when someone posts in the wrong section,can we refrain from answering please? all it does is create more clutter.

[Q] HELP!! Battery is killing my phone

Ok i have flashed ARHD and that's it. I haven't messed with anything else. But i am getting a huge battery drain even when i am not doing anything on the phone. Look at the images attached to this post. As you can see at some point the phone is awake even though i haven't touched it. I left it for 24 hours, with minimal use at the start and then i just left it at home. I have disabled background data. Can anyone help me with this? Is it because of ARHD rom?

Hi,
Poor battery life is probably down to the kernel you are using.
It's about experimenting to find the best ROM/kernel combination.
Choose from either Faux kernels HERE
Or bricked kernels HERE
Make a nandroid backup.
Place kernel on the root of tour sd card,
wipe cache and dalvik,
flash kernel like ROM,
reboot.
Thanks for your reply!
I just noticed version 3.6.12 was out and flashed it. It's with latest Faux kernel. Will test this out and see how it is. If it's same then i will try bricked kernels. Anyone you would recommend for this rom ?

Hi,

You need to give it a chance before you can judge it.
If you do get poor battery life ,you need to experiment a bit with the ROM/kernel combination.

It was just a question, I'm sorry if it looked agressive :>
I tried ARHD x.11 and x.12 and have had this awful wifi battery drain aswell but I didn't try another kernel because I was very new to the Android OS. After that, I have tried some other custom roms but I didn't fell in love like it happend with ARHD. So just wanted to know if this bug is still there or if something has changed.

I've had this battery drain with every ARHD roms and some other roms and it seems like nothing can fix it. My guess is .13 wont help me either.
I only had this problem with the ARHD roms. Which radio do you use?
10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2 which is recommended for that rom
Hi!
I'm bit noob at this but I have used ARHD roms since 3.x now using 6.0.2 xe version.
Never had such battery drain, used latest kernels from faux at 3.x now 6.0.2 uses stock
Kernel and my battery drain is in idle about 1%/hour..
Have you tried fresh install? I read somewhere that the kernel should install first then Rom?

Hi,
That drain you are showing is not actually that bad...
When I was on 3.x.x it was worse than yours.
You cannot compare phones like that.
They are running different OS,different hardware,so they are not comparable.
I used to get 1-2 mA drain on my HD2,but you will never see anything that low on the Sensation.
Why don't you try THIS KERNEL

I had the same problem. My phone would reboot once a day, at least. Usually, when I was asleep. I was using Val-Final. Since flashing AntonX's OC/UV kernel, I haven't had a single reboot.
hate to dredge up an aging topic, but my wife's t959v has started exhibiting undesirable behavior including momentary freezes while in use and random rebooting. it's running gingerbread kj6 rooted (from lumin30's guide here) with the following details:
firmware 2.3.6
baseband t959vuvkj6
kernel 2.6.35.7-t959vuvkj6-cl694130
build gingerbread.vuvkj6
now i'm infinitely more comfortable flashing kernels and the like with my htc sensation, mostly due to the fact that i don't need to mess around with kies/odin/heimdall. is that AntonX kernel fairly universally seen as a reboot fix? usually i'd dive in and just flash it, but last i heard, cwm restores don't work on the t959v, so i'm a bit wary.
thanks in advance all

The CWM issue was fixed when bhundven started with CWM 5. It's the older version that had an issue. The newer version is in Bryan's & AntonX's kernels and should not be an issue as far as I know.
Flashing Anton's kernel will fix the random reboot issue assuming you're using one of the kernels that exhibited that behavior vs. something else going wrong with the phone. There's a link to it in my signature if you choose to use it.
Good luck

awesome, great to hear about the newer CWM at the very least we've got two identical t959v phones (mine isn't rebooting randomly, but also isn't a daily use phone, natch) so i'll flash the new nifties on my "disposable" first. thanks much for your help!
No worries. Let me know how it goes or if you need any help.

You can always use the SGS Kernel Flasher from Google Play to flash kernels on our phone as long as you're already rooted. No need to worry about Odin or Heimdall.

If it's not BML, it's MTD. Search the Q&A forum for MTD. There you will find a thread by eollie which quotes the epicmtd thread and a post of mine... here it is:

Yes read op.
I first want to than you for your support on a "update for a BML kernel".
i think it belongs in dev but still don't have enough posts to post.
I ran into a few issues with no log cat because of hardware freeze.
1st Tegrak will not load module for custom tweaks. Hardware failure vibrates indefinitely, and battery pull needed. works fine if you don't try and tweak. running 1.4 GHz without optimization works fine but can't underclock because of issue. the screen freezes and becomes pixilated.
restoring from nano backup finishes but stays at gs4g boot screen for t mobile
nano restore might be user error. i just factory reset and restored from there using the one click. restoring nano after one clicking resulted in same boot screen freeze as original
im sorry i don't have log cats but i hope i can provide further information if requested.
running latest Valhalla Black Edition with 1.3 OC undervolted
created backup with VB kernel recovery
booted fine with first flash of kernel running at 1.4
tried tegrak to underclock 1.4 and hardware froze with pixilation of screen in very light but noticable amount
reboot
wifi fix didn't work with flashing with cwm, suceeded with flash just no end result
tried to recover using cwm recovery with modded kernel caused boot freeze
one clicked back with no problems
i love this forum and want to try and provide feedback when possible, thank you for all you have accomplished over the years and i can't wait to see the perfect kernel and modem for ics. FB i love the AOKP. Unicorn Power!!! thank you all for all of your awesome work.

I'm just saying. Everything you type is one long run-on sentence.
Notice how I break mine up.
It makes what you are saying easier to convey to others.
Don't worry. I was tired and grumpy
So what we learned:
Type like you're writing a letter
Don't use nano backup
Download alogcat/alogrec
Wiping cache and dalvik is fine, don't always need to wipe data, but sometimes you do.
I get grumpy sometimes too

Is this the kind of battery life we can expect for the mtd version of this kernel and/or the aries kernel port? I noticed this does have some things from aries (per Github History). The battery life with this kernel is epic, better than anything else I've used.
Thanks,
David
We don't know what kind of battery life you will expect from the ICS kernel because no one has tested the ICS kernel because bryan hasn't finished creating it yet. If and when it's released you'll get to see what kind of battery life you get with the way you use your own phone.

There is a reason for calling this kernel BlastOff. It's going to go through the galaxy of snacks Google has named their Android releases. It's starting off on Planet Gingerbread, BML style.
Eventually, if the stars align, it will end up reincarnated as MTD on Planet Gingerbread.
After reincarnation, it will head towards planet ICS... and on and on...
For now, we are still packing the ship with goodies. OC/UV, governers, I/O schedulers, mmc changes, and bcm4329 have already been packed. But I'm still adding more!
So for the medium term, this kernel will stay BML. You may see me experiment with MTD, but I would stay away from that stuff and stick with the BML kernel for now.
Enjoy my naming scheme.

We don't know what kind of battery life you will expect from the ICS kernel because no one has tested the ICS kernel because bryan hasn't finished creating it yet. If and when it's released you'll get to see what kind of battery life you get with the way you use your own phone.

No need for that kind of reply, I was simply asking a question. From what I can tell, this does use bits and pieces from Aries and that's what prompted the question. I didn't ask for an eta or anything to that affect. I also know that battery life is dependent on usage, but I know for a fact that on gingerbread the standby time is leaps and bounds better than what we have for ics (currently) (for most users) . It's even been mentioned that the kernel for ics had some battery draining issues by Bryan himself.

That "kind of reply" was merited. Like I said in that post, we're not gonna know how the battery will be until the kernel gets created and tested. I can give you a prediction and tell you that it'll last you 10 days with heavy usage but I may be wrong.
We won't know until we test it.
BTW, unnamed - bhundven edition has been posted to the teamacid github.
I'm not making an official zip yet, as we have some bugs still to work out, but if you want a rom to play around with the new kernel, git clone it and run the mkzip.sh.
Let me know what you think, if you feel so daring
(again, disclaimer, I'm not responsible for messing your phone up, thats your problem. This rom has been tested and won't brick you, unless you do something stupid. This rom will not work with any other kernel, for now.)

[Q] Nexus S nextGen v0.5 Rom - BATTERY PROBLEM!

Hello everyone,
I have a Samsung Google Nexus S and I put NextGen v0.5 Rom. I'm very happy with this rom and my nexus s is pretty fast and stable with this rom.
But now I have a problem with battery! My battery is empty for about 8-9 hours!!
Can anybody helps me who uses this rom or on some other way how to extend my battery life for couple of hours more?!?
Thank you!

I think I will. I'm trying now to find an optimal rom and kernel for nexus s battery.
Are you satisfied with helly bean and devil kernel?

Ok, thank you, I will definetly try it in next couple of days!:good:
Hey i'm the creator of the NexGen Android ROM, and I think I know the problem. Its most likely the kernel, try this one and let me know, it should make it a LOT better.

ignore the Virus alert cause its false. I just scanned and everything is okay with AVG 2013.

When I install kernel, will all apps remain on my phone? Do I need anything wipe to install kernel, or I just go into recovery mod and install new kernel without any wipes??

Just wipe cache partition and davik cache, no need to factory reset, then flash your kernel, you apps and games wont be touch:good:

I put Serenity kernel on my device and I couldnt start nexus s. In fact I turn on my phone and it comes to starting image (sign X and its loading to go into android) and i stays there. I left device for about 2-3 minutes and nothing happened.
So I decided to install HellyBean.
But thank you for your help and NextGen is excellent rom (except battery) and I look forward for newer version

Well, then you could flash another JB kernel
BTW, Good luck with HellyBean:good::fingers-crossed:
2-3 minutes? you're clearly not patient. You realize sometimes when you flash a new kernel it takes awhile to boot up? You should've given it at least 3-5mins for the first bootup.

If you are not using NFC then just delete two apk files from system->app
1) NFC
2) TAG
There's nothing wrong with the ROM or kernel. My ROM is AOSP, so it not booting up has to do with your phone. If you look at the thread, no one else is having a boot up problem but you, so please don't blame the ROM right away. You gave it 2 minutes to boot up after flashing a new kernel and then gave up on it.
You asked for help about the ROM and I'm trying to give it to you, but it seems you're just looking for a way out of NGA.
Like I said, nothing to do with the ROM, I'm running it right now with the same kernel as you, perfectly.
