About a month ago I faced problems with my 8gb Kingston card.
Phone couldn't be turned on when it's in slot. Also when I've inserted it while the phone is on it blocks the phone and starts blue led blinking, like bt is on...
3 days ago I went to my friend to check it inside, and when I inserted the card, on my surprise, everything was back to normal...
Tonight it happened again...
I forgot to mention that I've also tried other cards, and hard reset on my Vox...
Did anyone face a similar problem? Is there any hope for my good old Vox?
Thanks in advance!
I could be off on this one, but I'm curious if anyone else has had a similar experience to mine.
My phone locks up or restarts multiple times a day. I figured it was a hardware issue, and I've already got a replacement on the way. However, I noticed that when I removed my 32GB sdcard and placed it back in my old phone, that the G2X stopped freezing and rebooting. I placed the 32GB card back in, and the rebooting resumed.
I'm curious if there's a chance that the G2X doesn't play nice with certain brands/sizes/speeds of sdcards. Has anyone else noticed this same trend?
I'm using a Sandisk 32GB C2 card. Works great on my MT4G (still), worked great on my Epic 4G & Droid 2. Card tests out fine, so I'm curious if this may be the "source" of the bug some users are experiencing. 32GB cards causing an issue? Slower cards? Anyone have any thoughts on this?
My phone has no SD card, and I have had a few freezes and 1 reboot since I got it on 4/20.
I can't put my phone on charger without having to pull the battery to get it to turn back on.
I noticed almost everytime I accessed my 32gb sdcard that 1/2 the time it locked up.... it seems to scan the card way more than was done with my N1. Anyway...I had antivirus installed. Y the one by avg. So I uninstalled it and since I had lookout on my phone Amway...I enabledits antivirus. And it cut down. severly on freezes.
The other thing I noticed is only do your overnight charging with the LG charger that came with your G2x. Or any long term charging I think.
Also... I know this sucks...but if I turn off my phone and turn it back off every morning I do not get reboots or wake up to a dead phone. I saw this mentioned in another thread somewhere and it seems to work. After I hit about 24-48 hours of uptimei get issues.
Well I hope some of this helps.
good morning!!
I have the Sensation 4G with a 32 gig Sandisk micro SD card running Revelation Rom (updated to latest version) that has started giving me a significant amount of problems with restarts. I also have a relatively new Anker battery that has easily doubled/tripled the usable time of the phone, and i don't think it is causing the problem.
The problem first started off when i would press the power button and it wouldn't instantly wake up the display. it would take a few seconds then the display would wake up. Restarts would sometimes help with that, but it never really went away. Then it would all of a sudden start dropping my SD card, often in the middle of an app running which would lock it up and it would either restart on its own, or i would have to pull the battery to do so. each time it restarts on its own, it will not mount the SD card. i have to restart it multiple times to get it to mount.
I don't think its the ROM b/c I have been running it for months without issue. The only other software change that was recent was my SU binary was out of date and i updated that. It really feels like a hardware issue to me. like the back of the case is grounding out somehow or it could just be that the phone is 3 years old and at the end of its life. Has anyone else experienced issues like this?
I am unlocked, but with S-ON. i am using the most recent stable version of 4EXT as well
Thanks!
I am facing a strange situation where in my note 3 restarts automatically while charging. The restart happens after a while say after 15-20 minutes of charging. I am using this awesome device for past 4 months and this problem started occurring some 3 weeks back. The device does not restart on it's own in any other scenario. Pls help. I tried as mentioned in many tips over the internet i.e. removing battery, sd card then restarted the phone and unchecked allow Wifi scanning but no luck.
Are you on a stock Rom and Kernel?
if you are on anything other than stock, flash a stock Odin firmware, and see if it still occurs. But this does sound like a hardware problem if you are on stock. tried any other batteries? what temp is your battery whilst charging, anything abnormal? also are you using the stock cable and charger.

it happened on my friend's device before with a custom rom, after flashing another rom the problem's gone
Hi everyone, i know the title seems like it's just a trival matter, but trust me it's not.
The phone was bought new in August of last year (2015).
The story so far: I've been using sultanxda ROM for over 6 months without any issues, but i decided to test a different ROM, so i downloaded Darkobas rom and GAPPS, the ROM and Gapps installed fine but when i started the device and i was doing the initial configuration the phone rebooted by itself. It happened about 3/4 times and after that the phone had entered a bootloop. I tried to reflash the ROM and gapps, but the phone was restarting during the flash in TWRP. I decided to go stock Cyanogen OS, so i did a clean fastboot install of cyanogen OS. Everything went well the phone was working fine, but a few hours after installation the phone was randomly rebooting again, i decided i'll live with it and wait and see if it goes away by itself.
The phone was rebooting 2/3 times a day, during different acitivities so it was hard to pinpoint what might the issue be (even when locked in my pocket with all apps killed). After a few days of usage it just went straight to bootloop, after that i had issues to even install a rom (even via fastboot), because it would install everything fine and then it wouldn't start properly and would be in a bootloop (straight after installation).
I also tried the Bacon Root Toolkit installation as well as formatting everything and wiping everything. But even with the usage of Bacon Root Toolkit the random reboots happened.
So i installed an older TWRP recovery, i wiped everything re-formatted the phone to F2FS (was EXT 4 b4) and installed a F2FS compatible ROM (can't remember which one), after that installation everything seemed to work fine, but after a day or so the random reboots came back to haunt me again. So i reformatted the phone to EXT-4 again, installed stock cyanogenmod via fastboot (the 4.4.2 version), and updated it to 6.0.1 via OTA (during the course of a day or so, but even when the phone was on 4.4.2 i had a random reboot once), and the reboots returned ( i tried many different solutions, even the command line in TWRP "make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p15"). I had NO IDEA what might be causing them but i thought that maybe the processor is ****ed and it's overheating, i returned to sultanxda rom (with the underclock to 1957 mHz).
After returning the phone booted correctly after a clean install via TWRP, but now it's rebooting again, and sometimes it happens 4/5 times in a ROW, sometimes it doesnt even reboot, but goes to black screen and I have to push the power button for 6 + seconds for it to reboot.
I've tried the stability test, or running antutu a few times in a row to verify if maybe it's the processor's/RAM's fault, but the phone didn't care, it rebooted randomly (sometimes 6/7 antutu runs in a row and nothing happened, sometimes rebooting in my pocket with all apps shut down). I've tried different launchers/messing with WiFi options/turning off the proximity check/turning off the trust agents nothing seems to make a difference. At this point I'm at a loss of what to do so i came here to ask for any advice. Is there any way to check if the phones internal memory is corrupted in some way ? I've tried searching for some apps but nothing turned out.

flash this solved my problem http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061
Flashed the persist.img the problem still occurs. 15 minutes after the flash the phone shutdown, black screen.
Your phone battery is dying...replace your phone battery and all the problem will go away....random reboot a couple of times and then goes straight to bootloop is a sign of a dying battery....trust me i know this cause it happen to me before and i'm sure you have the same problems....
this problems will get worst when you can only boot into your rom while your phone is connected to the charger and goes straight to bootloop when you disconnect the charger....

Shouldn't the battery meter go crazy after reboots or something ? Well i guess i'll try this, the battery is not a costly component. Are there perhaps any bigger batteries than the original one with bigger backs ?

Nope...the battery remains like normal but random reboot will happen more regularly until bootloop....
Not sure if there is a bigger battery but there is one thread here that show one battery with 3600mAh and don't buy OP2 battery as it is not compatible with OPO...

Ok thanks for the help, will report back with new battery.
Switched the battery, the random reboots still happen, decided to do a clean flash, after wiping the phone in TWRP during the flash of GAPPS the phone rebooted itself and is in a boot loop currently.
Ok so the reboots stopped, it was a battery issue, but now i have a problem with battery indicator it's stuck at 50 % all the time and the phone does not show when it's charging (no information, no LED color), but the battery is being charged because when i shut it down and connect the charge and battery level (which shows when the phone is off) increases.
I've tried to use it untill it shuts down then i charged it while it was off for 6 hours, but after turning it on it still showed 50 %. I've also deleted the batterystats.bin using TWRP but it still did not help. Any ideas how to make it show the correct % ?

told you it was a battery issues but look like you have another battery issues here...try disconnect the battery from the motherboard for 1 minutes before connect it again and do offline charge for atleast 30 minutes....after 30 minutes reboot the phone and look at the battery percentages...if its goes above 50% then you have solved your problems....if it doesn't then you might bought a bad battery....you need to contact the seller that sell you the battery and asked for replacement....
Well unfortunately after changing the battery for a second one (the random reboots started again on the new one) the issue still prevails, so i'm currently writing a ticket to oneplus in hopes of some help.
Thank you iPusak Gaoq™
