Kaiser performance: Slowing down few days after flashing

Hello,
Almost a year ago I purchased my Kaiser (an Orange Kaiser) ans started to flash my phone.
I have already used several ROM avaiable here: Dutty (sevearl versions), L26 (SEVERAL Versions), Hyperdragon, Mobile vista, etc, etc, etc. Have already tryed several versions of the Radio firmwares. 1.24, 1.57. etc. Also, have already tried almost EVERY Hard SPL avaiable and so far I had the same problem:
Few days after flashing the Kaiser starts do slow down its performence. For ex: I press the Call button and it takes 40 to 50 seconds to enter in the touchpad screen. Sometimes it don't even enter the the call screen.
It get worst: sometimes I get no signam from the phone even if i'm side by side to a antena (where any other phone have a strong signal).
The only solution: HARD RESET. I mean, after a hard reset it looks like its other phone. Strong signal, fast response.
I can't possible imagine that I'm the only one here with this kind of problem. Does anyone knows how to solve? Does anyone here knows ehy it happens?
PS: I have already tried configurations with diferent programs. I have already tried with and without S2L2, With or without HTC Home (most without), With and without pocket launcher, with and without today agenda and SPB calendar. Can only think that this is problem with something in the ROM or the radio since every single configuration had the same performance issues.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks

I had a faulty SD card that was giving me similar problems to this. I think it was due to Coreplayer and Audio Manager scanning the faulty SD card for music and the read speed was really really slow on the card. Everything would grind to a halt. I bought a new card and everything was fine after that. You could also try formatting or removing the SD card to eliminate the card being the source of the issue.... but you'll probably turn around a say you don't have an SD card
Good luck...

Yeah recently I got this issue. The filesystem on my SD card for corrupt somehow, and I was unable to access anything on it via activesync (my pc) and my phone.
So I just installed some prob( i forget the name) and formatted the SD card, then re-flashed. And since then it's been quick as can be

Hey guys,
I've been having this issue as well. I have not found it to be my storage card as i have tried 4 different cards. i have put the cards on my BJII and it works without issues. I also have found that with some of my early L26 Flashes i would just ride it out and it would work again.
However i have not had my HDIII Pro for that long but i'm hoping that it would would do the same.
If someone does find a link to what is really going on i would greatly appreciate the advice.
Thanks

Also, I actually believe if you text message a lot (i mean basically excessivly) as my brother does, the device will slow down.
He has my older Hermes, and he has unlimited texting, but within 2 weeks he would have sent 1500-2000 text messages and recieved about the same ammount.
By that time his phone would start lagging and being a pain, so I would usually just do a new flash (or hard reset), since deleting that many texts normally would probably take 48 hours haha.
Anyway when it gets re-flashed everything runs normal and fine. But whenever the phone gets cleared everything is smooth again
So maybe it's the amount of text/emails you have? Idk

Going to test the SD card. I have a 4Gb SD card but I'm actually only using 1,4 Gb, so I can use a 2Gb with no problem.
This going to take a while since the phone starts to slow down after three or four days, but I'll let you guys know if it solved.
Thanks!!!!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you have a vista based machine, It will correct the filesystem errors automatically, and you wont have to reformat...
Works great for me, My desktop is VU64, and my lappy is MCE2005. All the flashing happens on the laptop, and transferring files to the SD (Music & Movies) via WMP happens on the desktop.

Idem
I have same problem.
I try to found confirmation in italian dedicated forum , nobody has had the same problem.
After any minutes where the kaiser freeze , i do not have the same problem.
As is autoconfigured.
Now i used selfmade rom (by official italian rom, and hardSPL 3.29).
Sorry for my bad english

[Q] Media Scanner Problem On S2

Hello, this is my first post so bare with me.
I have recently encountered a problem with the media scanner & media related apps in general.
For example, sometimes my phone would run media scanner for 30 minutes straight without stopping, and I would have to clear data on the media storage app to stop it, but that is very annoying as it clears my music playlists as well. Even apps such as dropbox has problems as well. For example, when I try to upload some pictures, the pictures dont show up and just freeze my phone for around 2 minutes or so. And as I open media related apps such as gallery or music player, the phone would freeze again. It is getting quite annoying, and I would like to know how to solve it.
I have tried various ways, such as formatting SD card, repairing SD card (even though there isnt corrupted files) and more.
I am on a stock ROM, not rooted. On a galaxy s2 LTE (Canada Rogers variant)

just try reformatting the sd card again - hilarious.
no seriously that isnt a terribly clear question, sounds like your having all sorts of issues,
you could try
1. resest to factory defaults - if it was working fine when you got it
2. install a custom rom - if its been happening since you got it

Thanks for your reply , but I think it happened after I installed a certain app. I will see if this problem occurs again. (Stopped it with clearing data from media storage again)

[Q] Bootloop only when starting up with SD card

Hello everyone, this is my first post here even though I have referenced the xda forums for some time now. I've spent a bunch of time trying to fix this problem on my own but now I feel that I have exhausted all of my options and I could use some help from anyone who has heard of or encountered this problem before.
The problem:
My Samsung Infuse will boot up completely and perform the SD card scanning but the SD applications won't show up on my phone (they only exist as SD card icons), which leads me to believe that it's not mounting properly because of some process or application that interferes during the scanning process. The phone will continue to run for a few minutes, slowing down exponentially as time goes on until it completely freezes and reboots to my boot animation which starts this whole process over and over again. However, the phone will boot fine and run normally if I remove the SD card. Occasionally, it will randomly boot normally with the SD card if I let it bootloop for a long period of time.
What I've already tried:
This problem started happening when my phone was completely stock so I researched it and tried:
- getting a new SD card (which actually seemed to work for awhile which led me to believe the original was bad)
- downloading a new launcher, switching to it and clearing the TW launcher data (this works occasionally when I can actually make it through this process without being interrupted by a reboot)
- performing a factory reset and manually loading all my data back to avoid restoring any potentially problematic settings
- recently rooting my phone and running UCLB3 firmware with Entropy's Daily Driver kernel with CWM to see if it was just a bug with the factory software
Since it's been rooted it seems to have gotten worse though. When everything was stock it would only do this occasionally but now this problem will occur every time. However, I was thinking that it might just be that the sd cards have to be reformatted every so often for some reason (I will try this out soon to see what happens). But if anyone else can help with this issue it would be greatly appreciated. It seems like this is a fairly common issue with Samsungs so I'm hoping that someone has figured out exactly what the problem is that would be causing this to happen.

Random Reboots (OG shield tablet)

Hi
Can't remember whether or not this has been asked and answered, but here goes...
Shield tablet
5.1.1
Non-root
For the past 2 months or so I've been plagued with random reboots ( up to 2-3 times a day)
I've tried to
wipe cache 2 times
delete a whole bunch of apps
Change power settings
I have NOT YET tried to do a full wipe, due to the fact that I've got waaaay to many apps that don't sync data with google so it would be a major hassle to fix settings, copy data out and so on.... But am looking at backup solutions that include DATA ( helium)
I haven't been able to ascertain pattern.
Any suggestions on what I can do , or for that mater any way to find out why the hell it restarts.
Thanks in advance!
D

That's strange. So just reboots, no shutdowns?
I can only assume, maybe a rogue app with reboot access.

Just reboots
And It seems totally random.... everywhere from 4 times a day to non... Load dosen't seem to matter . From netflix and web to plain and simple spotify. It's driving me up one wall and down the other... can't figure it out, and really don't want to factory reset
Any form for event viewer or something that I can take a look at?
Worst part is I use it to take work notes and on a few occasions it's died (rebooted) on me in the middle of notetaking... starting to really mess with things ... and yes I know, do a factory reset, and I will if I run out of options. But my fear is that after I reinstall all the apps I'm back to square one, and it all starts all over again.

Maybe hibernating all non stock apps with Greenify could solve the riddle; if it's indeed a software issue. Once the problem ceased, activate one app at a time till the reboot bug reoccurs..

Hi
Sry for the slow reply
Been testing the Greenify for about 2 days and the same is still happening. I've more or less put all non stuck apps into hibernating list.. and run it every so often, as well as activated the hibernate at screen off. And it still happens... wish there was an event log or something that could point me in the right direction.

That's too bad. What if it is malware? I'd say make a factory reset. Stay clear of non stock apps and watch and see. If it still reboots, it must be a hardware issue. You still have warranty, aye?

Nope warranty is out, I think. I mean 2 year but got it back in 2014 at some point.
A damn it, was hoping to id the damn offending app and fix it without having to factory reset....
No one knows of any event / log feature in android ( akin to event viewer in windows)...??

I just read on Amazon that someone had the same issue inconsistent reboots and the culprit was a micro SD card.
Do you have on inside your Shield?

I had this problem like 3 months ago. When tablet was charging the led indicator was blinking on green an orange. The problem was that the cable from battery was connected bad, I just had to connect it with solder. (My tablet is replaced )

Yeah, I do have an NTFS formated sd card installed...
Do you know of any easy way to check...or even better fix it?

Replace the SD card with another one or don't use one for now. You can still backup via USB or WiFi.
It may be a incompatible issue or a damaged SD card.

Backup via usb? As in copy paste the content of the SD card?
I have a lot of apps on the SD card, and not enough space on local storage to move back to tablet ....
Was hoping for some software based diagnostic or test to check the sdcard

Yes, you can copy n paste. Or save new data on a new SD card etc.
I presume there are Android SD card checker apps. But I think that won't help if it's an incompatible issue. Anyway, unmounting the current SD card won't erase its data. It's the sour apple you've to try.

Just somehow experienced the same.
Android 7.0 - no root no anything.
It's weird. Now it rebooted with 1% and then died. Before it just rebooted around 40%. Anyone found a solution?
Thanks

Samsung S8 Plus - Verizon - Random Reboots / SD Card Issues

Hi All,
I got a new S8 Plus this past Friday. Nice phone, but after spending a few days with it, it seems to have some issues.
The SD card seems to mount and unmount randomly. I have a few apps that are on my SD card and every now and then I just get the gray android generic "App Not Available" icon in place of the correct app icon. Then eventually it may show up again, or it may take a reboot to show up again.
The other thing (more annoying to me) is that the phone randomly reboots without error. No heat, no other issues that I can find, just a complete reboot. Again, there is no app that seems to do it, no excessive (or any noticiable heat at all for that matter). Just a reboot. I know it does it overnight as well because I can check the system up time, and I can also tell because I have iris scanning set up and after a reboot you have to plug in your pin number no matter what.
FYI - I called Samsung and they had me clear my cache and reboot to safe mode. Other than that, they did nothing else, said to watch it. And did not indicate anyone else was experiencing this.
Just wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing this.
Thank you!

A lot of folks are experiencing this, myself included. Try moving any apps you have put on your SD card to back to internal storage, that stopped the random reboots for me. I've removed my SD card for now, hoping a software fix is possible. If this "SD Card Monitor" app is correct my card mounts/unmounts 100+ times per day, even when sitting untouched on my desk!

I have an old Sandisk 200Gb installed in my T-Mobile variant 8+ and have not experienced any sdcard issues or reboot issues. I DO NOT have any apps installed to the sdcard either.

Verizon S8+ here. I have a year old Sandisk 128gb Sdcard in mine and I have no reboot or dismount issues.
