Hey all,
Finally my S2 returned from being repaired (for free, thanks Samsung... ehm... maybe that's a story for another day). And while being happy to have my regular phone back, I seem to have a problem which I don't seem to find the cause of.
Basically I used to have Ressurection Remix (one of the more stable roms I used btw), but seeing how the developer had some problems and it is currently stuck on 4.1.2 I decided to try a different rom: Omega v12.
The problem is that I had my phone restarting out of the blue a few times over the last couple of days.
Now I did not notice this the first few days when I was running Omega, so I am not sure whether this is something with the rom or with the apps I installed (I installed approx 100 of them in 2 batches).
So my question is following: is there a way to figure out what the problem is/was (some log of some sort?) so I can come here for more help with a bit more than "my phone restarts... help me"?
If it would be helpful these are the details of my phone and the rom it is currently running:

Did you do a full wipe before flashing the new rom?

Yup I did but I restored everything with titanium (user apps, no settings or system stuff)

I'm getting an error when I try and ugprade my Android version. I'll start with the history and spec first:
Google Nexus One, bought in April 2010, it had Eclair (2.1) on it. I wanted Froyo 2.2 (for the hotspot/tethering) but the update delays being what they were I ended up rooting it, getting clockworkmod, and installing CyanogenMod 6 (based on 2.2). It's been the same ever since and I've been happy with it. It's only because a month or two ago it stopped being able to update any of the apps that I'm even wanting to upgrade, otherwise I'd be happy with CM6. I can no longer update or even search for apps. If I can't go back to plain Android because I've gone CyanogenMod, that's fine, I'll just go for a newer version of it.
I'm not wanting to live on the bleeding edge with ICS4 on this old-timer (yes I've heard it runs but with bugs), so if I can, I'll go for a plain vanilla Gingerbread 2.3.3.
I downloaded 2.3.3 from here and renamed it update.zip and put it in the root of my SD card. I shut the phone down and then followed the instructions I found here.
It seemed like it would be easy, but I'm getting this error after choosing "Apply sdcard: update.zip". After the error I show two screenshots of how I got to that point.

For anyone with the same issue, you could have posted the solution here.Dont promote other sites.
I think the problem was with the file.
Sometimes the browsers get bugged and they dont download the whole package.
I have had this error a couple of times and re-downloading the rom fixed the solution.
I've been playing around with installing different ROMs, and decided to try one of the CM 7.2 Nightly's. It flashed just fine in CWM, but I had no cell signal. I followed this guide and went back to v10 but nothing. So I tried going to v20, but something went wrong...

This was after Emergency Mode. It should have restored from the backup. From 1 to 158...
I've tried searching, but can't find anything (I might be typing in the wrong terms... I don't know much about the P500 yet).
Help?
EDIT:
After some extreme fumbling, it seems to have signal now... What are the implications of the restore failing?
Don't worry, I had the same problem too. I followed the instructions perfectly, but ended up with no signal. Then restoring failed, and I decided to flash again. Surprisingly enough it worked fine. There's nothing to really worry about - as long as you have signal and can make calls, you're good to go. (My phone's been going strong for 6 months)

Great. It does seem to be running fine, I just wanted to be sure . Gave me a bit of a scare haha.
Thanks!
when I first Install my first custom rom it went great. no errors
I'm on Promethius rom 1.5 and kernel 1.5+ (both flashed after full wipe). When the CPU temperature gets below 25°C, my phone gives an error like "please replace your simcard and reboot the phone" and the signal goes away . And if I warm up the cpu with playing some game or something for a while and after that turn on/off flight mode, signal comes back and phone starts to work normally. This might become a serious problem in the following months with the autumn and winter.
Did this happen to anybody else? What can be the problem?
I checked the problem in my refrigerators freezer section and happened again just before I post this. Can somebody else try it and tell the results?
why open new thread?
i can ask help into the thread original! :Cool:
I also mentioned this in Promethius thread but it can be irrelevant with the rom or kernel.
try another rom
Of course I will.
But can you cool down your phone to see what happens in this time for example?
you just wait... at 25°C all is ok.

Thanks a lot, I flashed ThiaiZ rom and kernel and will try with this.
Happened again with Thiaiz Rom and v0.6 kernel. This time around 25°C.
It says "Replace your simcard and reboot".
That's so strange. I don't know what happen but is not good.send to the LG customer.
Inviato con Lg P920 powered by SPEEDYrom 3Dmax v.2.0
Yes strange. My phone overheats occasionally but I have never seen this warning before.
Try reinstalling latest stock GB ROM and see does it work normally with original software and kernel. If it's still showing same message on that temperature i supose that problem isn't then in custom ROM-s and kernels but in hardware...
Sent from my LG-P920
Yeah that's the only way that I can find out if it's kernel related or a hardware problem. I guess I'll do the stock rom thing and if the problem continues, I'll take my phone to LG.
I've found out that the problem is not because of CPU temp but because of my simcard. I've changed my simcard and there is no problem anymore.
sound much better
Whats going on people!???
I use to be up here all the time rooting every Android device I have owned and recently last year I went and switched over to Apple. Very pleased with their products I still decided I wanted to try an S3 out so I just got my hands on a Verizon S3 and wanted to root up and put a custom ROM on it, my main concern is the battery life on this rascal and I really want a ROM with great battery life.
What thread or video have you guys followed to root your device because I see a few diffrent videos on Youtube but I see that the rooting process is different for different carriers rooting. Any help would be greatly appreciated if someone could point me in the right direction in trying to root my S3.
Thanks!

Yeah I have it rooted now but when I try to flash a ROM it keeps giving me an error saying
E: Failed to verify whole signature?
I looked it up and I see that they say you need to dowload a new or different recovery but where do I get another one from?

Download the E-Z recovery app from the play store. It is helpful for flashing a new recovery like clockwork recovery or twrp.
As far as battery life goes...

That is stock non rooted.this is the first phone I've had that I had no reason to root.
With that battery life keep in mind that at my kids party I snapped off about 300 pics and 5 2-5 minute videos

I can't get rid of these damn reboots. I even flashed back to stock and no luck.
Currently running stock ROM with Code Blue kernel. Just got a reboot after using Soundcloud. It happened around 9:11AM. Logcat attached.
Any help would be appreciated! thanks.
Are you in lollipop? If so I am having them also

Yep, stock Lollipop rom with code blue kernel.
I had to go back to Mahdi's KitKat rom. Every Lollipop rom would give me random reboots.

I switched to this hidden gem last night and so far no reboots - http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/rom-android-5-0-aosp-gapps-t2932747.
But we'll see as the day goes on.

when is it happening? the GF's phone i was just informed 10 minutes ago that it is rebooting randomly or shutting down randomly on her. shes on stock locked and lollipop.
No idea when they happen. They are random.
I'm getting reboots even on KiKat. WTF?!
Any idea what to do?
Looks like this is what is causing my reboots. Could anyone please help me interpret the log?
Could it be a hardware issue?
