Random restarts.

I get 1-2 reboots a day. A couple lock ups happen too. Anyone else? Is it normal?

It's definitely not normal. Try wiping fresh and installing only necessary apps then test again. If the issue persists trade it in for a new Infuse.

My wife and I both get it on our two new Infuses. Mine pretty much happens when I am browsing... It will lock up vibrate a few times and basically reboot... Pretty frustrating... And I don't think wiping it clean will help since this happen on both of our phones

Hmm...interesting....
Are you all rooted? Changed any apps? Made any tweaks or all stock?
I've had my Infuse for a week now and it's been great....no reboots of any kind. No real bugs to complain about, though I have noticed it can lag quite a bit when looking at mms'.

The vibrating is force closing. sounds like an app to me. did you and your wife both in stall the same apps? try factory rest on just one to test. BEWARE. take your external SD out. the facotry reset, wipes that too.

Nothing special on our phones...since the AT&T update Thursday, the stock browser, so far, hadn't crashed yet.

The vibration is a notification that you are running low in nemmoey and using too much. Check your apps it happens to me too only when I'm browsing and trying to open too much tabs

Ergh... no....
It was exactly word for word:
ROM Pre-Installation:
Wipe Data and Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
So you put a check mark to tell it to do so.... Been flash roms almost a year now since the captivate.... I would think to do how to do that

Problem with restarts had been referred to SD cards. It is not always relevant, as such behaviour used to happen even on card-free phones. My problems started just after update to Mango, what made phone practically unusable.
I tried and seems succesfully solved problem in following way:
- connect phone to Zune
- click on phone, then settings
- choose RESERVED SPACE position
- change with slider from default 1% to 20%
- apply, disconnect
My phone, with Micro SD, stopped crazy behaviour, f.ex. during making photo, using apps. So far so good.
So maybe, either Samsung or MS had screwed up default settings of phone and use of ROM/RAM upon processes.
Solution can be applicable to Focus S and Omnia 7 too.
Good luck!

Sudden phone storage drop

I am using an unrooted edge and have a problem. Shot a minute video and then tried to email it. As soon as I tried the phone sent a message that the storage was low. It suddenly dropped 50mb. I deleted the email which was in the to be sent folder and I deleted the video and the memory didn't come back. This is the second time this happened. Several months ago I had the same problem and had to reset the phone to get the storage right. I really hate to have to install all the apps again and this time I am asking for help?
Any ideas? I have read that there is an HTC email memory bug? But couldn't find a fix or not sure that this is the same problem.
Thank
Bob

An EDGE??? Well this is the EVO Shift forum. But you can check and make sure your Email, and attachments are set to go the SD Card. Also you can go into the actual app under settings and clear Cache, and clear Data. Then reboot, see if that helps.

App storage space is off after ICS?

I've installed the stock 4.0.3 incremental on my i9023 when it came out in December.
Now, the thing is, when I go into Settings->Storage it says I have 300mb of app space left (internal memory, not sdcard). If I go into Manage apps, it shows the same thing, but if I wait a bit (~5-10 seconds), it suddenly tells me I have 480 mb left.
Now my question is which one is right? Anyone else ran into this?
I'm thinking that some services might not take into consideration the fact that some apps are actually on the sdcard, but that seems stupid to me, and possibly wrong.

Yes, it happens to me too. It fluctuates between 300mb for me within seconds. Weird.

Okay, it stopped for me after I did a hard reset. Now the phone flies at all tasks. No noticeable lag, no more launcher restarting after using an app. No more 0.00 ram. I'm glad I did a hard reset.
Full disclosure: I unlocked the boot loader and rooted. Also installed wallet. Everything else was restored from Google servers.

Cyanogenmod 10, activation screen?

Hey all. I just flashed CM10 9/6 and so far its been fantastic. I get a full 4G signal where I used to only get 1-2 bars 3G. On that subject, every time I boot up the phone, it launches the cellphone activation app, and it is already obviously activated and working as it should. The activation app does nothing when ran and is just an annoyance. How do I get it to stop launching?
Thanks.

I'm not sure, I'm sure someone will help you out here, but meanwhile you could always try to clear cache and dalvik in CWM and or fix permissions first.

Hmm guessing its just one of those random bugs, you could try reflashing CM10

I agree, or at least do a factory reset/data wipe on it.

this has been happening to me as well, just use the 4 corner trick to get rid of it, the phone will still work

Did you apply a theme or something? Try going into settings and applications then default applications and make sure under "Home screen" it says TouchWiz home or whatever launcher you're using after that go to themes and make sure the theme you want is set. Have you used the debloater app?

touchwiz is set to default, and debloater was used but not on any samsung apps..just mainly hangout, verizon apps and instagram

I'm having the same issue. Never disabled anything except Verizon apps and amazing stuff. I even went so far as to uninstall all my themes and apply stock and reboot still showing elements of a couple different themes. I never reset before or after update so I'm thinking that might do it, but I've been avoiding it cuz I don't kmow how much I can backup and restore. Things such as SMS and WiFi passwords.

If it's still not working and you're planning to do a restore you can create a backup within the phone itself by going into settings and tap backup and reset and set an account to backup to and then wait for a little bit so it can send the backup to your account after that just press and hold the volume up button and power button at the same time until the phone shuts down and it should give you the option to factory reset.
I just did it the other day and it remembered all my apps and passwords for the WiFi.

You may have to factory reset. How to go about that is above.

Unfortunately the SMS messages were gone but not my contacts so it wasn't to big a deal to just start new messages.. There is apps that can backup and restore those... Another thing was my pictures were gone but I had sent everything I wanted to keep to my laptop. After the restore i put them back.

That was happening to me all week last week forcing me to reboot the phone I even took the sim card out and made sure there was no dirt or anything on it but even that didn't help so I had Verizon put a new one in and it hasn't done it again yet.

At this point I kinda wish I could swap it out for a nexus 6 or something.

Is there some way we can "catch" this update to see what could possibly be used for helping us root?! I have it downloaded to the phone but I have a feeling it's in a hidden folder..
