[Q] reboot issues even after flashing CM7

My phone came with 2.3.3 and it would shut down randomly all the time. Now after installing CWM recovery and flashing with the latest CM7 nightly (124), I am still experiencing reboot issues in the middle of calls. Any suggestions guys ?
Could anyone recommend a more stable rom maybe ?
Returning the phone is out of question because I bought it off ebay.
thanks

Go back to a nightly around 100 or 105 or so. Seriously, I believe the radio interface layer got all dicked up at some point in the last month or so of nightlies.
I went back to 105 and am no longer having issues. After nightly 115 or so I was getting reboots during calls and SOD w/ overheating.

I was having the same problem and I'm also running CM7 Build 124. I went to T-Mobile and had them give me a brand new battery and now I have no reboots or any other type of problem. Running the way I expect it to be. Hope this helps.

Yea, it also shuts down (not reboot) every time I charge the phone. If changing the rom does the solve the problem, i'll try replacing the battery next time around.
Thanks guys

I had the same problem when I was running Weapon G2X, phone would shut down in the middle of the convo. Flashed CM7 and haven't seen the issue. My phone still has a problem though that is pissing me off. I will put it on the charger at night and wake up in the morning to find the phone is off. Press the power button and it boots right up. I am going to try a new battery and see if that fixes this problem cause obviously flashing roms hasn't fixed it.

Did anybody get around to changing batteries, if so did that end your reboot issues/sleep of death?

I have flashed the most commonly used roms including CM7 nightly 124, weapon g2x 2.5, and eagles blood 1.9. I have used each for at least 5 days and noticed that all of them cause shutdowns while charging. currently using eagles blood because it is the only rom which does not reboot the phone while on a call.
but still, the phone shutting off while charging is very irritating. i'll be getting a new battery within week. any suggestions where i can buy one from ?

You're gonna need a new phone... Flashing custom ROMs isn't gonna fix it for you. I had that problem with my first G2x, and ended up getting a replacement. The reps are pretty lenient, so it's worth a shot to try to get a replacement.

Have you tried calling T-Mobile at all?

You could try using a different charger (other then lg charger). I have seen online some people have had this work for them. I haven't had this problem, just thought I would pass on what I have read.
Good luck, hope this helps

Do you have the latest baseband yet? If not, try to use the LG update tool to update your phone first. Many ppl gave this issue just because they don't update their phone originally

already updated !

uh the charger SOD bug is due to the rom not battery/phone specific. charging off pc is a temp workaround. had the same issue leaving the phone on the charger for extensive time frames and would have to pull the battery.

Baseband has nothing to do with the frequent shut-offs.

Same here
I had the same problems. Then I realized whenever it rebooting randomly, it was really really hot. My fix was set cpu and faux123's cm7 0.4.1 sv kernel, no reboots in 3 months!!!

Credits go to everyone on XDA for thier hard work that makes our android smartphone that little more special..
Bugs: You tell me..
READ CAREFULLY:
Ok kernel: You will get a corrupt kernel in this rom simply because kernel devs use the latest NDK release to make kernels. This in turn corrupts the wifi and Bluetooth. So to fix this you will install the rom and then go download either V4.2 or V0.6r from samno's kernel page it has to be those two as only none + kernels will work with this. Remember you must let your phone boot and you must set up your phone before flashing Samno's kernel to fix your wifi and bluetooth.. Remember also that the kernel must be a 21D kernel..
THE FILE SAYS VERSION 1 BUT IS ACTUALLY 1.1 I FORGOT TO CHANGE FOLDER NAME!!
Download Link: https://hotfile.com/dl/155052526/288e9a2/Typhoon_Version_1.zip.html
About theme or themes i have found that i cannot make everyone happy with my choice of theme. So instead i have decided that from now on all my roms will be stock. But good news is i will make a video soon on how to customise your own UI with UOT kitchen.. Keep an eye out for that too ..
How to install:
Before you even start you must make sure you have any V20 baseband or any V21 baseband.
1. You must be rooted to root there are plenty of guides that can be found in the general section please have a look.
2. You must have CWM installed guides can also be found in the general section.
3. Switch off your phone.
4. Once turned off hold the power + Volume down key together till it turns on then let go of power whilst still holding the volume down key.
5. Once in CWM you must wipe everything.
6. Install the new rom that you have downloaded from your SD card.
7. When installation is done restart and enjoy.

I'll have some

meemo you're on fire with these roms mang! keep up the great work

I flashed this over the clean rooted chinese V20G, and when I try to turn on Wifi it says "Error" and obviously doesn't work. I wiped data, cache and Dalvik cache when in CWM, flashed the zip and rebooted. I also had no APN's. I'm currently reflashing it, and if it still doesn't work, I'll download it again.
Edit: re-downloaded, same problems. Maybe it doesn't like the chinese rom?

I like... Thanks.

Erm did you read the READ CAREFULLY bit at all or did you just click download and install it blindly? i have placed a bad kernel on purpose you need to start it and set it up via the lg setup then go to samno's kernel page and download his V0.4.2 or V0.6r and install the kernel that will fix everything your Bluetooth, WiFi etc.. I am sick of people not reading is it hard to give up 5 mins of your time to read things or has technology blinded us humans badly? Oh since you will not read you need a 21D kernel but without plus maybe + works too try and tell me..

The rom is not depended on ghost calls it's the baseband flash either V20G or V21E first as kdz to get baseband. Or get the fls files from the kdz and use smart flash to flash V21E or V20G baseband and use any rom without ghost calls..
Anyway soon i will make a V21E rom might as well wait if you don't want this one..

hi meemo,

thanks for the default theme by the way... it looks clean as it is

You could flash back to stock firmware and try again. If the error persists then the files are probably not right for your phone.

The files the OP pulled are for his phone based on the baseband shown. It looks like it may be related to the OTA update that came through recently.

That explains it, the OTA update includes a slightly changed kernel (based on what I saw in the diffs) that is likely causing your WiFi issue. Can you try applying motorhead's kernel from here and see if WiFi starts working? I know it is not a full fix, but it should get your wifi back to working while motorhead and I coordinate on getting a stock kernel that can be flashed from CWR put together.

YEEEEE HAAAAWWWWW
I got some WIFI !!!!
Camera, BT and sound, seems like everything works.
Can't imagine why not a "Full fix".
Thank You !!!!
Says there is an OTA update, after it downloads, I get tossed into CWM bootloader 6.1.1 and the update doesn't get applied.
All I do is choose 'reboot system'.
Also I'm getting ...
"[ AT&T Address Book] Checking Subscriber Information"
when I touch contacts.
I am not an AT&T customer, I use STLK the BYOP program.
We really need a custom ROM for this great device, no bloat, no AT&T updates, no AT&T bloatwares, No CIQ, No City ID.
I would be HAPPY to PAY for a custom ROM and have it delivered two weeks from last Thursday. Jellybean?
Someone like me who chooses a rugged phone may not be into all the bells and whistles, so a basic stripped down
ROM would be great.
and yes, I am getting lag coming out of deep sleep. may have to hit power button twice to unlock.
Can't wait to try Motorheads soon to be released power kernel...

Check the super thread. I have an ODIN image that is pretty stripped down and it includes the 6.x version of CWR. I left a few things in "just in case" but they can easily be stripped out using any of the various root tools for removing system apps.

The lag is a noted issue, along with the WiFi shutting off randomly and intermittently. I'm researching these issues as much as I can to find a fix, but I can only do so much so fast .

I was going to start a new thread but then I found this. I too had the issue with I the wifi turning off and the screen lag. After reflashing the no bloat Odin image and the 1.1 kernel my wifi turns on, but does not find any networks. It just searches then shuts off? Any ideas? I wonder if the stock kernel being worked on would fix this or if there is something else wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I sent the rugby smart to SAM to have it completely reloaded. when it comes back, i will try to make a back up much like i make an image of a hard drive...if that's possible.
For my PC, I have an image of this existing hard drive. If i pull it out and put in a BLANK hard drive, I can write the image to the new disk with all my apps installed...I use that feature often with my pc's and others...for mine, I frequently make a new updated image and delete the oldest one.
Once I change the bootloader, is it possible to get it back if I backed up with with Kies?

You guys are in luck. Kernel1.2 should be out shortly with the lag and wifi fixed . I'm waiting to hear back from another tester, but so far ut's proven stable. I've only had one error pop up, and that was after running pretty hard.

Motorhead1991, Is this for the Samsung Rugby Smart?
How much of, if any, overclocking??
Can you also tweak a non-overclocked version without "City ID" app, "Carrier IQ" app and possibly no AT&T bloatware??
You rock for everything thus far

No overclocking just yet, but I'm giving it hell. On the bright side, Kemonine and myself are currently treading in uncharted territory for this device (see if anyone gets my reference)
And to answer your question, yes it'll be for the Rugby.

iam not sure

Yeah, it actually did hurt to ask that one.

So after flashing the following new odin images
•Stock boot / kernel:
•Stock Boot + Stock Recovery + Stock System:
•Stock Boot + CWR 6.0.1.2 + No Bloat System:
My WiFi still turns on, searches for a while, finds nothing and turns back off! I have no idea what to do next. Any ideas?

When you flashed via ODIN did it show it was flashing the boot area? In the status window it should tell you which images are being flashed to the device. Can you re-try the stock boot/kernel ODIN image and confirm it did flash the boot image?

That is the only thing that booted. As soon as I selected the image I got a "MD5 checksum failed" prompt. The "start" button changed to the same message but it let me click it and it loads the boot.img. Does that help at all?

[Q] I think I need to downgrade my baseband...can someone please confirm?

G2X LG P999
CM7.2 Nightly 2012-12-02

BB Mar 11 2012
CWM v5.0.2.0
As a result of trolling this site for a while, I have tried a few different ROMs and a couple of different kernels. All is good with this present combo except for an overheating issue while charging that I'm pretty sure is fixed (checked "Stay awake" in Settings/Applications/Development). I tried Hellfire Phoenix v2.3 last and dug it. I came back to CM7 because I recently had the need for bluetooth (headset) in my car and with my PC. I thought the problem was with the ROM, but after having the same bluetooth issue with CM7, I dug around here and found out that the problem is the baseband.
Am I right in that assessment?
If I am right and the only way to get bluetooth working on a custom ROM is to downgrade the baseband, is this what I need to do?: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048274
Do I really need to go back to stock? Can't I just use CWM to flash a baseband that will work?
TIA,
Nasty

Yes, currently Bluetooth headset only works on the stock gingerbread roms with the new baseband.

Thanks...bummer. I guess I'll have to live without...not going back to stock.
I reloaded Hellfire Phoenix 2.4.2 and put the OC mod version of Mazout360's CM7/9/10 Kernel. I like it the most. But, it's a battery burner...which isn't that big of a deal most of the time. But if I have to do some traveling and need the extra battery life, I may need to flash the stock voltage version.
Question:
Can I flash the kernel without wiping everything out the ROM and having to go through the whole setup from the ROM's startup (reload apps, adjust settings/drawers/ringtones, enter mail accounts etc)?
Or would it be better to get an app like Setcpu and figure out how to downclock and lower voltage when I need the extra battery life.

Just boot into recovery and flash the kernel, don't need to wipe anything.
Assuming you're talking about mazouts non oc one.

You would still need to wipe cache and dalvik... can't flash a kernel without that typically.

LG Phoenix - Distorted Colors

Hello everyone,
Ive seem to run into some trouble, that I cant find a solution too.
I rooted my phone with Gingerbreak V1.20, and flash my recovery with CWM.
I proceeded to add the Nightly Four E rom, than the trouble began.
My colors on the phone display are diffused and distorted, mainly showing the color green and blue.
I read thatI need to flash the stock 2.2 rom again and it would fix it but it didnt.
Can someone help me with this, its quite annoying.

It's a kernel issue. From what you've stated, stock 2.2, your device never got it's official 2.3 update. So, you have an old baseband P505. You should be able to flash ROMs made specificially for the P505 as well as P500 ROMs. Since your device is old baseband, you also have the option to flash P509 ROMs. P509 never got an official GB update so it's always an old baseband device, same with the P506. The catch with P500 ROMs and most P505 ROMs is they are build for new baseband so an additional patch, old baseband, will need to be applied after flashing the ROM. P506 devices use a different touchscreen than the others so you'll have issues installing one of those ROMs.
The old baseband patch is to get your radio, cell signal, working with new baseband ROMs. I hope this wasn't information overload If you used ROM Manager, it's possible that is screwed up the radio too. ROM Manager is not friendly to the Optimus One device family. Android Flash Recovery, link in my signature, is designed for flashing recoveries via fastboot and fastboot mode. You may, especially if color banding is an issue with your recovery, want to reflash your recovery too.
Oh, and have you seen the LG Optimus One FAQ?

I appreciate the reply you've giving, but this is my first time using the Optimus One.
You stated its a kernel issue, how would I go upon fixing a kernel issue?
You also stated I should reflash the recovery, is there a specific recovery I should be using?

For the kernel issue, you can search the forums here to find some that are compatible with your device. The kernel you need will depend on the version of Android you are wanting to install since there isn't a universal kernel for all Android versions. Most of the newer kernels are for ICS( Android 4.0 ) and JB( Android 4.1, 4.2 ). I've never used it but they say Franco has a kernel for GB ( Android 2.3 ). SweetnSour has a kernel for JB and the AndroidArmv6 Team has a new 3.0 kernel for JB.
If you like GB, then you may want to look at this CM7.2 ROM( Direct download ). It is for a P500, so you will need the old baseband patch from post #9 in the LG Optimus One FAQ. I''m using that ROM on my P509 ATM.
As for the recovery, I only suggest reflashing it if you are experiencing color issues with it too. I use CWM 5.0.2.7 Touch, but it will only allow P500 ROMs to be flashed. It's no big deal for me, but for someone new to the game it can be troublesome. CWM 5.0.2.0 is also a good recovery. I don't recommend using ROM Manager to flash anything. If you should decide to reflash your recovery, I would recommend using Android Flash Recovery for Windows( in my signature ) or FlashImage GUI which can be found in the Play Store.

It seems no matter what I do, the color will not correct.
I've tried switching roms, flashing a new kernel and recovery nothing seems to be working..

Do you still have a backup of your stock ROM? I mean a backup that was made while in recovery mode. If you do you can try booting in to recovery and then try wiping and formatting everything but your sdcard. Then restore the backup you made and reboot the device. Other than that, I hate to say it, but I'm at a loss.

I just flashed the CM 7.2 ROM, and franco.Kernel | 2.6.35.10.
I just about did everything, but the color remains distorted once the actual ROM boots up.
Note* If the phone is off and I power it on, the first LG logo has perfect color and clarity but once the ROM kicks in the colors wacks out.
Edit - The phone no longer allows me to access CWM it's just a black screen.

The kernel is part of the boot image. It's possible that somehow your partitions have been damaged.

Hmm. I'm about convinced there's something wrong with your partition tables. Your data is getting corrupted.

So basically I just ruined the phone?

Yes and no. If you can find or get a hold of the partition.mbn for your device you can use LGMDP to repair the partitions. The P500 one might work too, I'm not sure tho.
EDIT:
You can also install a recovery and ROM in the same process with LGMDP

you only had to flash this on your p505 after the rom https://code.google.com/p/sweetnsour-kernel/downloads/list; one of these
kernel-20130224_1312.zip version4-CFS-P505-P506 for battery life
kernel-20130224_1306.zip version4-BFS-P505-P506 for performance

You have saved my phone my good sir, and I thank you greatly!
Now that I have the correct kernel, can I install different roms now?

Yes, but only ics and jellybean roms , if you use the kernel on gingerbread you will get a lot of troubles...

I just flashed the unofficial CM 10.1, and booted the phone and the color was diffused again.
So I flashed the kernel again and booted the phone, and everything is working perfectly.
Thank you so much!
P.S - CM 10.1 doesn't come with Google Apps or Rom manager, how do I get that back?

To get the google apps you will need to flash a gapps.zip, but first you need to trim the cm 10.1 rom, because
The recommended gapps package is not quite small enough to fit along with the rom in our limited /system partition. The size of the rom can be trimmed by deleting or converting some system apps to user apps, deleting unwanted ringtones and fonts.

Also
Take off anything that can be installed from Play, same for gapps.zip!!

There is a tool designed for that, is in shinobisoft's signature, oone rom editor, download that tool and in the help docs you will find information about trimming, and what can be removed safely... Here it is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1959023
If this the first time you are installing roms, i will recommmend you to stay in ice cream sandwich, because is more stable, and it has a lot better battery life than jellybean...
