Constant Power Cycling? - Venue Pro General

So now my DVP has learned a new trick. I was driving home and noticed the power was off. Could've sworn it had plenty of battery, so I went to power it on.
Now it just sits there and power cycles...all the time. Tried yanking the battery, replacing it, and charging it plugged into the wall...still sits and power cycles.
Between this and the whole SD debacle, I'm getting pretty pissed off at this phone.

Have you replaced the SD Card? Could the power button be sticking?

Yes - the SD card was replaced. Several times actually, and all replacements worked fine (reset + card swap, then power on) for a week...then this suddenly started occurring.
Someone at the MS store blamed it on that, which I guess is okay, but seriously - if that is the case, then Dell needs to put a legitimate "this will void your warranty" sticker on there rather than some black bar that *supposedly* shows "void" once you peel it off, even though nobody in the store could actually read what the hell it said.

I have had something like that happen with my phone as well. I have not replaced the MicroSD card but maybe 4 or 5 times this last week the phone has seemingly been off or off in space when I try and turn it on from "sleep". All the times this has happened I had to pull the battery. Once it did the same thing again right away but most of the time it goes back to normal.
I thought it was one of the apps that might be causing some issues so I have removed it and will see if this stops.

What SD cards are you guys using? I have had a Sandisk 32gb Class 2 in since Friday morning and no issues so far (crosses fingers).

I used a Kingston C4 32GB - worked fine aside from the slow Zune sync, same with the Patriot C4 16GB. The one that worked properly was a Wintec 16GB C10 card - until the power cycling occurred. I replaced the stock card and it still did the same thing. I would expect if it was *really* a card issue, it would've booted but displayed an error, as it does if you just replace the card without doing a reset.

After some more testing it seems this happens when I am pretty sure it has to do with some Marketplace app bug. When I search in the marketplace it seems to happen. Phone will go to sleep and then not come back. I end up having to pull the battery to get it back. Hopefully this will get fixed in an update.

My recommendation is to use the phone for a few weeks *before* swapping out cards. In this case, no one knows if it's a hardware issue, software, or something about the MicroSD card.
Keep it stock. See if it's fine that way. If so, then swap out cards. If it starts to act up, then you likely have your culprit.

Micro SD not recognised on insertion!!!

Hi All,
Wonder if this is common or should I return the unit now. Had my Dopod 838 Pro for a week now. Great phone/PDA but since new, it does not always recognise a Micro SD card at first insertion. Tried 1x512 Sandisk and 2x1gb Ultra II cards with same issue. Phone has latest ROM from factory, 1.03.707.4. The insertion seems "clunky" too, that is, it doesn't go in smoothly like regular SD and Mini SD devices I have got.
What I have noticed is that if I only insert just enough to lock the card in it seems okay, but if I push it firmly home, it is more likely to remain unrecognised.
In every case, once recognised, it runs, saves, reads from the card flawlessly so it does seem like this is a hardware issue. But if all the Hermes phones are similar, it may be just one of those characteristics of the phone and nothing too much to worry about. Just like to know so I can relax or act as the case may be.
Thanks for any feedback guys...
John
Yes, I have found a similar issue. If I remove and re-insert the card a few times it eventually gets noticed.
It's the only glitch I have had on the device after 3 flawless months

Quite a few seem to take a few goes before recognised but usually seem to work fine once recognised.
Might be a bit concerned about jpfe8851's clunky slot and if it seems to go past the normal stopping point - Have not seen reports about this and mine does not do this.
Mike
I've noticed that it works everytime for me if I insert the card with the device turned off.
Martin
If you use your camera application to save the pictures on a memorycard, try to run the camera after inserting the card if it doesn't detect it. The camera app. then informs you that there's a new memcard inserted and do you wanna use it to save the files on.
Not so much of an hasle, considering how often you really remove/insert memory cards and the hermes has the camera button just opposite to card slot. And the application doesn't stay on the process list if you close it from the X (cross on upper right corner). The OK button doesn't completely close the application.

This sounds like good practice and I'm sure for most folks this works. I think though there some people that struggle to get Hermes to recognise the card even when inserting it when off. Generally it does recognise it in the end but there could be a few reasons for these issues (formatting, fragmentation, poor physical contact and so on).
I think your advice is good though and should become routine whenever the card is removed/inserted.
Mike
I've used a 1GB PQI, a 2GB normal Sandisk, and a 2GB Sandisk Ultra, and all have worked fine. Except one of the 2GB doesn't like my card reader
i found formatting the card help. Originally it would only be detected if the phone was turned off.
Unfortunately I didn't have a card reader, so used an adapter to format it in my digital camera and have no idea how it formatted it. But it now works everytime without fail!
Thanks Guys...
Sounds like this is fairly common. I've found even since I posted the original question, that provided I just push the card until it clicks, it starts up every time. With my old Axim x50v and Atom, I had to really push the SD cards as far as possible to engage the lock whereas the Dopod clicks just after the edge of the card is past flush. Gently does it seems the rule.
Mike, I appreciate your concern but the clunkiness I think is more related to the card design, having the bumps along one side, than the slot. Also, these things are all rated as hot swappable, so we should all not have to turn off just to change a card. I don't change cards that often, but when I travel, I swap cards a bit as I take a couple cards with music on to listen to while flying.
For all with the issue, I suggest you do as I said in the first paragraph as that seems to be the clue, just press the card until you feel it engage the lock and see what happens.
Thanks all for your feedback. I'll carry on without a visit to service as the phone is terrific and the keyboard (my reason to replace the Atom) is superb.
Best regards,
John
*Solution*
I've also had the same problem, but I think I've figured it out and it's a hardware issue.
If you don't pay attention to how you put the card in, it will go in "crooked". The problem is that the little notch on the side of the microSD won't activate the switch inside the phone that tells it that "the card is in".
The solution is to watch very closely how the card goes in. If you make sure that the side of the microSD card with the notch, goes in straight and flush with the side of the slot, it will recognize it every time.
i've done all the suggestions given on this topic but i still can't get my JasJam, which is about 13hours old, to recognice my microSD card. I've tried a 512mb and a 1gb and no luck... i'm leaving tomorrow and i'm worried if the service center will want to repair it rather than exchange it.
hi fone_fanatic,
if its a fault with the jasjam, you will receive a replacement if its under 30 days old. but the replacement procedure sucks.
Are you in Australia and a Telstra customer? If so, telstra calls imate support to obtain a service reference number, then they will send your pda to mobile phone solutions (MPS) in QLD, they will inspect it and then return a new jasjam to your retail outlet. once the retail outlet receives it they will give you a call to come and collect it.
the warranty is Imate, not telstra, so once it leaves their stores, imate are the ones who do the replacement through Mobile Phone Solutions.
Turn around time, 1 week for my replacement to be couriered to QLD from Melbourne, 5 days turn around time from MPS, 4 days for the new replacement to be couriered back to melbourne, 1 day for me to pick it up. so around 3 weeks.
Now, MPS is closed from Dec 22 to Jan 3 and they are out of JASJAMS, they are awaiting more from imate for warranty replacements (my friend is wating for his replacement) so turn around time could be longer.
life sucks sometimes......
Thanks for that info Jasjamming. I'm in saudi arabia visiting family and friends for the holidays, and the process you just described soounds very similar to the one that was described to me today. BUT... turns out the device is fine, the cards i tried were both Nokia MicroSD cards that came with nokia phones and for some reason the jasjam won't read them. So i bought a 1gig Sandisk and it works fine!
Im having the same issue with my Hermes and a Sandisk 2gb card. It worked fine for a few weeks, but now wont detect at all. Interestingly the screen comes on when the card is inserted or removed - I'll test the card in a reader to see what shows...
A soft reset always seems to work for me

There's a thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294324 which gives some fixes to this problem. The thread is a bit long so it may be best to read from the end backwards.
Also, I believe this problem has been taken care of in the cooked WM6 roms. My SD card hasn't disappeared since upgrading to WM6, but did all the time when with Vodafones UK rom.
broken microSD card?
I have a Sandisk 2GB microSD card, that after a few days stopped working. Whenever I insert it, the device hangs completely. It doesn't matter whether I had turned off the device before inserting. The device stays unresponsive when I eject the card again, I always have to do a soft reset to bring the device back to live. I tried to insert the card carefully (as someone here mentioned the issue with the little notch), but it doesn't make any difference. The card is never recognized, not even after a soft reset. This is obviously very frustrating, as I had just installed a couple of useful apps on the card.
Do I need a new card or is there anything else I could try? ( I do not have a card reader....)
ROM: 1.23.78.3
ROM date: 08/01/06
Radio: 1.06.00.00
it must be the sandisk 2GB microSD cards as i have one to worked great for a week, then stopped working....i formated using the pc and now it is recognized as a 1 GB card, in both phone and pc..

[Q] Hard crash, handset not responding at all. Advice?

I was downloading music onto my Wildfire with the Spotify app for offline playback when my handset went completely unresponsive. I can plug it to a charger and see the led light up, so it's not kernel panic. Also I hear notification sounds for incoming email and stuff. I just can't get the screen to go on.
This happened to me before and I took off the battery, which resulted in a corrupt file system on my SD card, so I'd like to avoid having to do that. Do I have any other options? I can't seem to turn it on or off. It's not responding to the power button at all.
try putting it into HBOOT/Bootloader when the device is off
( Hold Power button and down on volume rocker)
-if that works maybe try a recovery?
Problem was turning the device off without corrupting the SD card. After consulting Martin on IRC it turned out to be impossible so I just took the battery out and screwed up the SD cards.
I think the card is a lemon and the cause of these freezes in the first place. I got it off eBay really cheaply I suspected there was a fair chance it wouldn't be premium quality. Let this be a warning to you all trying to get cheap on your SD card purchases.

Does your shift sometimes say SD card is read only?

This is the second time and a different card that this has happened with me. I've tried ruu and that doesn't help. I thought maybe there was a file on it that the phone didn't like so I backed up the card and let the phone format it. Problem went away for awhile. I got a faster card and now its doing it again. I had a similar but more destructive times of this happening with the evo. It would corrupt the card and I lost everything on it. What I ended up doing was put a piece of paper the size of the card on top of the card. This was to make the battery hold down the card more firmly. I suspected the crappy mechanism htc used on both phones is at fault. The card would wiggle around when it was seated in the slot and the lock bar down. I don't know if this is the case again with the shift but I did it again with this card. Hopefully that does the trick. I would hate to take the phone back.

no problems here (yet), but I hope this doesn't happen.
This has happened to me on all my android phones. My hero, optimus s, epic and now the shift. Usually just messing with it will fix the issue no problem. Pull the card reboot etc. Worse come to worse back your card up and reformat. That fixed it for me before.

Have any theories on why this happens?
I haven't had this problem but my Moment would occasionally tell me the SD card was damaged when I knew it wasn't. Figured out that just plugging it into the PC and having Windows scan the drive for errors would fix the problem. Maybe it might work for this too...?
I'm guessing that the SD card doesn't sit in the card slot and recessed area very well. Sometimes, over time, the card might be jostled by handling of the phone like if it gets bumped. The contacts lose a solid connection with the other half of the contacts inside the phone and an error happens. In some cases with some phones, I speculate when a card shift happens during a write cycle to it, the file allocation table doesn't get updated correctly, thus temporarily corrupting the card. Seems as if a format fixes it sometimes. That's my guess. When I put a piece of thick paper, less than a millimeter in thickness, on top of the card, and the paper is the same shape of the card, and the weight of the battery on it helps keep the card from having the tendency to move around in the card socket. The errors don't seem to happen again for me.
Why does this crap happen to me? The spring loaded card sockets on phones, I've never had this problem. They seem to hold the card in place very well. It's probably a cost issue because a plastic bar to hold the card down is cheaper than the metal spring loaded locking card mechanism.
It happened again. It seemed to happen when I tried to open a file. It seems like it only happened when I messed with the file. I deleted it and so far so good. It seems weird that a file would make the card go into read only mode.
I had it happen once. It was when I was disconnecting from the computer.
I always eject from computer, then select charge only before disconnecting. I read that on an EVO forum
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
I managed to have this happen on my Hero with an 8GB class 2 card. I returned it and upgraded to a class 6. Also I made sure to always properly eject the USB in Windows after that. Not a problem since. Knock on wood.
Sent from my HTC Evo Shift 4G
it happened rarely on my Moment but not on the Evo Shift . usually a reboot cleared this problem for my phone

Yup, this works great
It's happened to me before, but on my Hero. Haven't had it happen on my Evo Shift yet.
Only thing that's happened is one time I had my phone set as a disk drive when connected to my PC. A friend of mine called me and it couldn't read the ringtone from the SD card, and I got an error regarding DRM not being installed. Once I disconnected the phone from the PC, everything worked just fine.

Focus battery issue

Sorry if this has been addressed, but I haven't seen it anywhere.
Got my Focus just under two weeks ago. Added an SD card, no issues before nor after the SD "fix."Starting yesterday my phone started randomly turning off. NOT resetting, as no data was lost, and it turned right back on.
I'm fairly certain its due to minor jarring, and is therefore a battery connection issue. I'm going to go ask for a new battery at the ATT store and try that before asking for a whole new phone.
I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this. Also, if I got a new Focus, can it reformat my SD card, or is it locked to the specific phone?
Thanks guys.
its your sd card.... even though there is no data lost the turning off and back on is it rebooting ... you need to try a card thats been working.... there is a nice list on here or just buy a samsung one..
you can try a format and try the card again but theres a good chance it will happen again...btw what sd is it?
16 GB Sandisk, class 4. It doesn't turn back on on its own, though. I manually turn it back on. Kind of like if I did a battery pull, it would shut off and I'd have to manually turn it on.
Pull the card, leave it out and format... If the condition continues then its the phone, but I'm betting it will work fine.. Here's to hoping. It is strange but certain sd cards give this phone fits... the format is power off. Press n hold vol down,camera,and then power. Keep all pressed till you see the format screen pop up... Hope this helps...
Well, I put in one of those Samsung cards in from that ebay seller, and next day got a similar turn off, so I'm gonna say it's the phone.
If I switch it out in-store, can another Focus reformat the card, or am I gonna have to borrow one of their Nokias?
Your Focus randomly shuts down or reboot?
Captivate had random shutdown issue, wish it's not on Focus.

Shuts down, have to manually turn on. No loss of data.
And I've reproduced it by setting it down on a hard surface multiple times, so bumps seem to be jarring something.
when you get your new phone just plug in the sd card and do the format.... it will set the card up in that phone.

LOL I found this out after I was told ATT doesn't even sell Symbian phones. Good to know.
So did exchanging the phone solve your problem? I have 16gb SD card (sandisk class 2) it was working fine for the first two month, but last month the phone start to randomly reset about once a day. I took out the sdcard and battery reseated them both (not resetting data) and it seems to work fine for about 2 weeks (may be one random reboot once) but last few days the phone would reboot everytime I set it down on hard surface. It doesn't do it all the time but do it enough to be annoying.
I really don't want to exchange the phone unless I have to.

If by reboot you mean it just turns off, then that's what I was experiencing. I changed SD cards and it came back the next day.
I just switched phones today and haven't seen it yet, but I'll get back to ya in a week. Switching phones wasnt too big of a hassle for me, though, so you might just try that now while you're in your 30 days.
If it keeps happening, I don't know what phone I'll switch to. Shouldn't have jumped on that Zune 12 mo pass just yet.

Inserting any SD card causes bootloop....

I've done some searching but not come up with any definitive answers....
Lately my phone(SM-G930V) has taken to bootlooping and heating up at random times...
This morning (4-4-18) it took a security update (G930VVRU4BRC2) and became completely unstable...
I tried everything...finally resorting to a full factory wipe and reset.
Still looping.
The SD card has been in it since day one (Feb 2016) it is a Sandisk 32gB...
On a whim I removed the SD card and the phone returned to normal.
I experimented with (4) other SD cards of varying brand and capacity and every single one threw the phone into a constant loop.
Obviously something bad has happened inside the phone with regards to the SD slot or how it reads it...
Just wondering if this is a known issue and if there might be any resolution ?
Thanks, Dan
I had a similar issue yesterday. To be honest I fixed it by flashing the att fw onto my verizon phone for oreo and then using adb to upgrade my phone to oreo. Now my phone is super stable and hauls ass. Jesus I love oreo.
I followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s7/help/android-oreo8-0-verizon-s7-t3750452 when you go the guide page, do the method without the SD card.
BE WARNED it takes a LONNNNNGGGGGGGGG time to update. Took me probably 1-2 hours.
Im using a verizon phone with an att sim card so I didn't have any issues with the setup wizard. I heard some people on verizon having issues though, they fixed it by removing their sim card during the wizard after they pushed start.
Only thing I did different was used regular odin. You can try either though.
My phone is running superb now.
Scary thing is...this morning...it started looping again...
No SD card inserted at all...
I removed the tray and cleaned the SIM card with a pencil eraser (made the contacts nice and shiny) and it hasn't looped in almost an hour.
I'll look into reinstalling the firmware and upgrading to Oreo...
Been waiting for the update to come through normally...but hey...what ever it takes..
Dan
Worked for me man. Give it a shot. Like I said, Oreo is running flawlessly on my phone too. The phone is so snappy now.

I don't want to alarm you, but first off, how old is the phone? Was it brand new when you got it or is it a used or refurbished phone? The reason I ask is because my previous phone I had, an LG G3, lasted 2 years. Right after my contract ended (non-payment plan at the time), it started exhibiting issues stating that the SD card has been ejected and then minutes later, the SD has been inserted. This would happen with any SD card. I eventually had to use the phone without the SD card and I flashed back to various previous images, custom ROMs, etc. No matter what I did, eventually the SD card would eject itself for some reason and then reinsert it self (it wasn't really ejecting but the phone thought I had removed it).
Turns out, it was a hardware failure in the phone. Eventually, one evening I was using it and the entire screen went black. Hooking it up to my PC resulted in nothing. It was dead. So, I don't want to alarm you, but this could be the precursor to a hardware failure going on in your phone depending on how old it is, etc. Hence my questions as to how old it was, and whether it was used or refurbished.
Might be time for a new phone. If it's fairly new and under warranty, you might want to swap it out (which usually results in getting a refurbished unfortunately), but you never know. You could always take into a repair shop and have them run some diagnostics on it as well.
Hopefully it's just something wonky with your software and a reimage fixes the issue. I've had mine for almost 1.5 years and so far, it's been running great. I've never rooted it or anything because for me, it does all that I need and performs well. First phone I've had (other than my G3) where I haven't had to root it or flash a custom ROM. For me, it works great, but I know that's not the case for everyone.
