Hi
I installed Thiaz ROM and the ICS theme which there is a link to on his V2.4 page. All was running fine and dandy for a day. I installed all of my programs, apps, etc, and used App2SD to move some of them to the SD. Each time I did this, it said 'failed' the first time and then allowed them to be moved on the next. I rebooted the phone a couple of times and never had any problems. After I had got things set up as I wanted them, I rebooted into CWM and did a new backup. I then rebooted and went into bootloop.
Cleared data, dalvik and even battery stats. Tried fixing permissions. Nothing worked at all, still boot loop. Did a factory reset and restored the backup and still bootloops.
If I restore to the original backup from when I first put on the ROM (no ICS theme), it works OK. Then after a few hours and after I have turned on and off successfully a few times, I get the old bootloop again. I have not messed around with any system files, etc. One time it was after I moved a file with File Expert but I uninstalled that programme and haven't used since.
Any help or suggestions would be very gratefully received as I don't really want to go back to the stock V21a but I can't be doing with setting up everything on my phone from scratch every day either!
I hope someone can help me.
Later edit5: Tried to restore my nandroid backup and TWRP froze. Had to hard reboot the phone...
Later edit4: It started working. It f***** started working. Out of nowere. Last night, the last thing i tried was this: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/fix-for-sudden-death-and-boot-loop.146107/
I rebooted the phone and it didn't work. I gave up.
This morning I turned it back on and ... surprise, surprise... it started working (optimizing apps and actually booting into cos12.1).
My happiness didn't last because as soon as the phone started updating some apps, it crashed, and entered a boot loop again. Good thing i managed to copy one of my previous backups.
Can someone explain this behavior?
Later edit3: my phone is still stuck in a bootloop. Neither roms are working.
Things I've tried:
- flash new roms
- erase/ flash persist
- flash color os
Nothing works!
Later edit2: while on cm13, i plugged it in to recharge. While connected to wall plug it did nothing(working fine, as it should be). As soon as i unplugged it started rebooting over and over again... a boot loop. This phone is starting to look like one of the biggest mistakes i ever made. I regret purchasing it.
Later edit: now it just turned off, and pressing the power button won't turn it back on. Had to press it for about 10 - 15 seconds. ANNOYING!
OP: I've been experiencing random reboots on my oneplus ONE since I've had it.
When i first got the phone, i was so excited about it and started flashing custom roms, just for fun and to see which one suites me. I messed up the phone (my camera wouldn't work anymore. All the roms gave me the same message"Camera has stopped working" ) and sent it back to warranty, here in my country, at the shop from which i've bought it. After two weeks they sent it back to me with the note "restored to factory settings". I've checked the "About" section and it was running cos12.1, 1 jan 2016 security patch, kernel 3.4.67.
So I've decided to stick with this rom because I didn't want to mess it up again. But, out of nowhere it rebooted. First i thought that it was an app that needed the phone to reboot. I didn't mind it. I've left my phone over the night and in the morning it was saying "enter pin" as it has rebooted.
Long story short, ever since it reboots at least 1 time a day, and it is getting really frustrating! Sometimes when i'm in an app, sometimes when it just lays around.
Reasons it rebooted:
- no reason, just siting and it rebooted
- opened waze app
- browsing chrome
- tried to connect to a saved wireless network, it rebooted and afterwards the network was not recognized anymore and had to retype the password
- no reason!!! just sitting!!
- fresh install of cos 12.1, i queued about 20 apps to install... it rebooted and continued installing after reboot.
- sometimes i heavily use it and it runs perfectly, but when i stop using the phone and lay it down it reboots. (this only happend one time)
Things I've tried:
- factory reset
- clear cache and dalvik cache
- power cicle the phone
- new rom
None of these worked.
Today I installed sultans CM13, with his 3.4.0 - sultan - caf kernel, hoping that my problems would disappear. (I installed TWRP 2.8.7.0.5, flashed the rom, cleared the cache, flashed the gapps, cleared the cache and reboot.)
It ran flawlessly. I've installed all my apps, played a little with it, configured it as I pleased and I've left it the table for about 15 minutes. When i picked it up, it rebooted(AGAIN!) out of nowhere.
What could it be? As I read through the forums i found out that a log with the exact problem is impossible to get because it gets deleted.
Could it be the wireless network? Could it be the sim card I am using or the phone modem? Could it be because of the launcher?
(for now, i've disabled my sim pin so when my phone reboots i don't miss phone calls if i don't notice it has rebooted)
Please help, as this problem is getting more and more frustrating...
Reboot log
Quickly after a reboot i reconnected the phone, opened cmd and typed adb logcat.
This is the log. 22:17 is the time when the phone rebooted so i extracted only that fragment of the log.
I am going to flash the stock cm13 nightly with the "stock" version of gapps. (until now i always flashed "nano").
Hello guys,
within the last days my phone got really slow, so I decided to reinstall my OS (cyanogenmod 11) + some "optimization Tools".
At first everything worked fine...but at some point I probably did a mistake because atm my phone just makes an unhealthy sound and restarts, usually at the sim card unlock screen after some seconds (ODIN and CWM work fine).
I used CWM to delete everything and reinstalled Cyanogenmod(because thats the only ROM I have on my phone and I cant copy anything on it) ...but nothing happened -> same OS, same Apps, same Setting...and same problem
Then i tried out ODIN3....it took around 20 minutes to install my stock rom....but NOTHING changed, still cyanogenmod, still WA installed, still userdata...
Am I missing permissions to delete the files on my phone or what is going on ?
Any suggestions on how to fix it with cwm or ODIN ?
Thanks in advance
Hope it's ok to push after 8 hours :c
Hello everyone!
This is my first post here, and I have a problem with my phone.
It is Highscreen Boost II (russian one, you didn't maybe even heard about it). Google for it...
The main problem is that the phone started to act strange one day. Example: I unlock the phone, start opening my apps (Fb, Insta, Viber...) and after a few minutes it just restarts by them self. I also tried to turn OFF the Internet connection, but all the same thing.
The phone is rooted, and it have CWM recovery. And here starts the funny part. XD
When I go to CWM, i go to factory reset, it all done right, it says "successful" on the, but what is the strange part, that it just takes like 5 sec. to do the "reset". When I press reboot system, it reboots the phone, but nothing even changes XD.
I also tried, flashing new ROM, it says that is all done, but when I restart the phone, it just came back on the previous state that it was before. The other funny thing is that, the phone keeps go back, on the same date (~20. February 2017). I fix it manually in the Date and Time settings. I also tried in CWM, to go to Mounts and Storage, and doin' from there format of the SYSTEM, and than flash the ROM, it flash it for 10 sec. Reboot and all the same stuff. I even tried Mount /System and than Format it, i tried to format everything, but without success. It just says the CWM that is done, and nothing else...
Than, i tried to flash the Stock Recovery (it can be flashed from the CWM), it says that it's flashed, than when i try to reboot the phone in the Recovery mod, again it comes back with the CWM, so in fact, nothing has changed in the end. I also connected the phone with the ADB connected to the PC, entered in Fastboot mod, Booted in the STOCK RECOVERY (live boot - to say...), using the commands in the terminal, it successfully boot up the stock recovery, than i tried to do the factory, cash and all usually necessary before flashing the Stock ROM, after that, i flashed the ROM (from the ZIP file, SD card...), again, it was very short time, saying that it was successfully installed, restarted the phone, and imagine it all works good
-\ Nah', just kidding, it is the same thing again, all the same, not even changed the Recovery, the ROM, nothing... I also tried flashing the Custom/Stock ROM thru the commands on the PC, it says DONE on the end, and all the same, nothing...
After all that, i decided to restore the phone with other ROM (to say) in the way to go to the DFU mod (pressing + and - and Power button together), so i enter the phone in Download mod (to say). In that way, once (2 years ago) i recovered my phone from Hard Brick, since i deleted the partitions and all that stuff....
Than, i decided to flash the ROM from the DFU tool (Innos Upgrade Tool) - from here i was following the instructions, and doing all like before. It is connected in the device manager, and detected as DFU android phone (something like that), as it should be. When i try to format the partitions, it just crashes, or when i try to flash the ROM, it went to 100%, and doin' nothin' I even tried to reboot, and all, all over the same thing...
I want to add, that, i remember that on that date ~20. February 2017 When it always return to that date/time over and over again, that on that day, i re-flashed the ROM, because my system started to crash from itself... So by flashing the ROM from CWM only, it works fine, and didn't lost any app, i mean didn't needed to install all apps that i am using...
*The phone is running fine if i don't use it non-stop, i mean if i start to go in my settings, and click too many times, it will just reboot and go back on that date/time state... I am using it only for calling and sending some SMS. Nothing else...
*My 70% of the apps, we're on the SD card moved, trough the Link2SD app (root), so i cannot uninstall the apps that are here, neither i put the SD card IN.... This doesn't matter. But another thing is that, if i for an example took a Photo, add contact in the phone book, send SMS, call someone, after restarting the phone that data/info/sms/photo is not there... It acts like it is in the cash memory, something like that... It just all looses and starts over again, from the same date, and time.
My opinion is that the phone, somehow... that the "NAND" memory chip is death (just an example)... Something like the BIOS CMOS battery on the PC's, that is dead, and cannot keep the changes, after rebooting the phone, so it goes back on that time when it was last time in "good condition".
I really don't need the phone anymore, but it would be nice for an backup option to have it fully functional.
I want to hear your opinions, did you ever met a problem like this before? If you did, what did you did/fixed it?
For me this is kinda funny, because i never had/saw a problem like this before. So i don't know should i cry or laugh around... XD
Thanks.
Hi everyone!
Yesterday my GT-3100 got stuck on bootloop. Around two years ago, I got tired of seeing the Jellybean look so I gave custom ROMs a try. Even though I was incredibly scared of bricking my device, I went through with it anyway and flashed CyanogenMod 12 and made sure to make a backup of the stock version. Ever since then I've used the upgraded Lollipop 5.0.2 version. Occasionally it would get stuck on bootloop and it would get fixed on erasing the cache partition. Just yesterday the bootloop started again and even after trying everything, nothing's working.
I have CWM Recovery v6.0.2.7 installed, which I installed 1.5 years ago. I have tried factory resetting and after it rebooted I realized that nothing was even erased. My backup seemed to have disappeared as well since CWM can't find it even though it takes up almost 8Gbs of storage. After restarting, the home screen appears for about 30 seconds before restarting again in a continuous cycle.
I'm a noob when it comes to these things so any help (in simplified language) helps.
Thank you so much! :laugh:
Its probably a broken emmc. That means you need to replace the motherboard.
