My phone keeps on randomly rebooting. Is anyone having the same problem?
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
I am experiencing this problem too.
It rebooted once when I was using the Camera (Youtube HD Video mode)
Once When Trying to open Gallery.
And once while just sitting here on my desk at work.
I want to love this phone so bad! I really like it so far though, and the keyboard issue is def. not a problem for me, and I think it's probably a design flaw rather than a manufacturing "defect" considering there are no springs. It is very hard to recreate the hinge problem while holding it naturally, including at a 45 degree angle in bed.
I also have had a few reboots and also media server force closes while running other apps. Never had these issues with my N1. Luckily I still have it. I'll give it a few more days and probably end up returning this G2 and going back to the N1.

I have been waiting for a good QWERTY phone with a fast CPU and a WVGA, passed on the nexus one and kept my G1. After running CM6 on my G1 (usable but sloooow) there is no going back for me after using the G2.
I sure hope this is something fixable in a firmware update
Does it reboot all the way to the white htc screen or the grey tmo g2 screen? Mine does it to the tmo screen and seems to only happen when the phone has been sitting for awhile and I pass through an area with no reception and when I hit reception again is when it happens. Almost like its turning itself off but stays on enough to look for signal and then turns back on. I only say this because on my drive I know the spots where I lose service and the phone does the reboot in those spots. Anyone else?

Yea I had this happen today when roaming in nw ohio I think it may have started after taking pics of my niece. I also have a problem with the memory card it says it mounted read only and none of my pics or anything show up in the gallery.
The incredible used to randomly reboot. I believe that was due to when there was low signal. It was fixed with an ota.

It goes to the G2 logo screen.
I have also had two occurrences of it being stuck at that screen and the power button not responding to long press or anything, only solution was to remove battery.

That would make a lot of sense, I'm at work right now and my signal is very weak here, goes in and out all the time.
What about others who are experiencing this problem?
Also, I am using a Class 6 A-Data 8gb microsd partitioned for ext3/swap/fat (not the included card), and so far each time it has rebooted the USB cable was plugged into a PC (for charging only, no debug or mass storage)
I wonder if any of this matches up with others who are having issues?
Mines always happened not plugged in and has never gotten stuck.

g2 reboot and mulitple force closes
i am getting the reboot issue also, it seems to be random when i am opening an app or going in to basically anything. also i am getting multiple force closes in basically all apps. i did a master reset and going to reload all apps and such and see if that fixes anything.
Could be something you have installed too I remember some people having this problem when nexus first came out and they built a list and narrowed it down

There's a thread on Tmo forums about this issue, the guy fixed it by transferring his number to the new sim card that came with the phone. If you haven't tried it, give it a try.
I updated my sim and haven't had any reboots yet

For what its worth, my N1 reboots occasionally, randomly when I may be doing something. Happening ever since I got it. Maybe sone kind of exception happening in Android?

I have transferred my sim also and am still having this problem. It was after going through a no signal zone, which sucks because I am in hotels and places where I have no signal all the time.

Thanks for this tidbit. I called Tech Support and had my phone number moved to the SIM that came with the phone. Probably a long-shot, but what the hell...
Well, after 2 hours on a fresh charge, I sat my phone down for 15 minutes. When I picked it up it was dead (black screen). Had to pull the battery.
Seemed to be a weird fluke. Did have another reboot, though it felt Android related versus hardware.

So it rebooted on me this morning in a spot with perfect reception. I was trying to open the xda app but it wasn't opening...almost like I didn't have any data. Fishy fishy..

Mine actually rebooted twice on me, both at random times.
1st occurence - I was listening to pandora, skipped a song while the loading circle was going on, I tried to go back to the home screen and it did take me there but than rebooted all of a sudden - It went straight to the G2 gray screen with the T-mo logo
2nd occurence - again I was listening to iheartradio app, trying to switch to a different but it rebooted back to the t-mobile gray screen ----- i think iheartradio is not tailored for android 2.2 yet, so i thought it could be the culprit.. since it only supports upto 2.1 in the market.
but yea nothing else as of now... hopefully it wont happen again.
This happened to me for the first time today. I was on the web, pressed the home button and scrolled thru the screens to get to my widget and it froze on me and rebooted to the t-mo g2 launch screen.. it actually stayed there for a good 2 mins so I pulled the battery and rebooted after and it was fine.. is this an on going problem that'll be fixed soon? i hope?
I have a non-rooted stock NS on 2.3.3 and the phone was just sitting on my desk doing nothing when I felt it vibrate. I picked it up to check for a text or email, but the phone was instead rebooting.
Has this happened to anyone else on this build? I have had the phone reboot while in call before, but never just sitting there in standby.
This happens to me in 2.3.2. I will have the phone just sitting there and it will randomly just be rebooting. Its not frequently enough to bother me yet but it happens on and off.

same here on 2.3.2.... thats why I wanted 2.3.3. Ill wait patiently for the nightlies to include it.
happened to me many many times on 2.3.2, but not 2.3.3. knock on wood
Happened to me...2 times already...never on 2.3.2...im rooted though
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
This happened to me like 2x a day with 2.3.2.
Hasnt happened once yet with 2.3.3.
I never got reboots in-call, though I did get them a couple times when I overloaded the phone's RAM.
Mine just rebooted in 2.3.3. I'm also getting "Can't connect to camera" anytime I use the Amazon barcode app which worked perfectly in 2.3.2.
Haven't tried the new update yet
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I never had the in call rebooting, just overloading reboots on my nexus s. I have yet to have one since the update, but it has only been a little over 24 hours. Then again this has been happening to me since updating my nexus one be it stock, rooted, or CM6 FRF91 and FRG83D or any form of gingerbread I've used on it. The only thing I can say it it started in froyo for me.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
on the new update havent had any issues.
I had the random reboot in 2.3. 2 and thought the update had fixed it.
Unfortunately it did not - i noticed the phone rebooting yesterday.
The camera has crashed twice so far, requiring a battery pull.
I am stock, non-rooted.
I also get random failed downloads and failed market updates.
Starting to get frustrating.

With all the problems you stated, it is obvious that ur rom is corrupt. I suggest you to back up all your settings, wipe everything and then reinstall a rom .
He's not rooted dude. Btw I get a reboot on every call. On cm nightly, no matter what I try/flash

I just had reboot one time with 2.3.3 but I was running all processes 72 hours, without stopping and it suffered a lot !!!

Nope.
It happens to 2 Nexus S, both stock, not even rooted. One barely has additional apps, too.
I think a lot of people don't notice the reboot, because it is silent, so if you are not looking at your phone exactly at the particular time it reboots, you wouldn't know it.
The inability to dial at times is much more annoying, IMO: you punch in a number, the phone tries to dial, then hangs up. At the same time, there are 3-4 signal bars. When it happens, it normally takes several tries to get it to work.
The crashing camera also doesn't happen every time, but it is definitely a new bug in 2.3.3.
Just had my first random reboot on 2.3.3 while phone was sat on my keyboard while at my PC.
Rooted detoxed Rom stock
My 2.3.3 phone went into the weird "Dim Screen Reboot Screen" reboot at some point during the night last night. I was late for work because the alarm clock didn't go off (I know, I know...don't depend on a cell phone alarm clock)
I'm about done with this phone. And Android. Anyone wanna buy my NS? Dead serious.

This dim reboot screen thing used to happen quite a bit on my g2 in its early days, got it launch day. OTA fixed it.

I am still hopeful, but I am losing some patience with Android.
The platform seems to be all about selling the newest hardware, but the user experience is definitely below that of the iPhone. I keep hoping that the next Android OS upgrade will close the gap, but....
The iPhone 5 will have 4" screen, with Apple's better screen aspect ratio. If it only did Flash....
Anyway, the Nexus S is really the best user experience Android has to offer, and it's overall fine. Except when it acts like WM6.
For some reason my EVO keeps restarting randomly on me, and all the time too.
I'm running CM7 7.0.3.1 and savaged zen 2.2.0, and I have an extended battery and I rum juicedefender.
Now I don't think its the battery because I've had it for month
Its most like savagedzen 2.2.0 but idk maybe its CM7 too.
I think this started after I started playing words with friends. Doesn't seem like a memory intense app and I never had this happen but lately its been rebooting randomly, like I'm download from the market. Internet, and even posting this thread!
Basically I'm thinking of switching to either virusrom or Mik, which is better?
Sent from my dope fly fresh EVO
my chick is having the same issue. hers just reboots at random after starting to use her pandora app about a week ago.
her evo is running:
Mod version: CyanogenMod-7.0.3.1-Supersonic
Kernel version: [email protected]#1
Ditto
I have same problem, and have tried various ROM's, most recently a complete wipe as per Mikroms instructions. Only pattern I can make out is it tends to start when the CPU is stretched a little, such as running Tango over 3G, or even Angry Birds for over ten minutes. Once it starts though, it reboots several times before it finally quits.
There was another thread on this, but no solutions, instead it turned into an argument over whether it is CM7 fault; not very constructive. I have tried different batteries and changed up CPU speeds, still to no benefit.
Like I said, if I don't tax the system I have no problems, and that so far has been my only solution, but a disappointing experience with my Evo.
My dad's kept rebooting too even after the gingerbread OTA. He is running a bone stock phone(not even rooted)
Wife is having the same issue on her stock EVO with the new OTA
same issue here, playing WWF,stupid zombies or surfing the web. on decks rom and on the gingerbread 2.3 stock.
Apparently, this is a common problem with the EVO. Mine started as soon as I accepted the recent OTA update. There is an XDA thread somewhere. Just do a Google search.
Same here & 2 of my other friends. I am on my 3 or 4 EVO (lost count) & everyone does it. This is only one I rooted as well. I noticed it does it less (once every few weeks to a month) with a custom non cm rom. Also restart your phone at least every couple of days (usually I did every day). It works out pretty well. What I tell my friends don't hesitate to tell sprint you have a issue so it gets documented. So you have proof to fall back on when you had enough. It's not like you pulling one over on them. They see if you have all these issues for so long why just now saying so. I have found that for some reason phone resets in middle of calls multiple times same day with certain Bluetooths. I drive truck for living so I on phone alot with customers/work/friends/family/etc. Always Bluetooth, and did up to 5 times a day. Then bought one top of line (jawbone icon &now Bose) and doesn't do it like that anymore. Hope this helps any of you. & again any issues you get tell sprint. Last time I got a new EVO in box, & they let me keep my old one. So gave it to my mother. Then had it replaced under her #.

Mine started out with a reboot
every so often. It finally got so bad it would reboot over and over until I pulled the battery for a few. Somewhere in the process, my GPS crapped out as well. It would work for a few minutes and then freeze. Not a good thing when you are not from Boston and trying to navigate 8am traffic to get somewhere.
I got a refurb as a replacement. It was in perfect shape and only had like 111 minutes of talk time. No telling why it was sent back but I've had no issues with it.
Mine is doing this too.. its annoying Ive restored backups and it just keeps rebooting, i dont know whats wrong. Im on avaFroyo 2.2
I don't remember where but there is a thread about this very topic. From what I read this was attributed to a corrupt data partition. My gf phone is starting to have this problem. Only fix I have read so far is to reroot phone and take it to sprint. I am waiting til they can root the ota. Then I will unroot her phone and get a new one.

Anyone got an issue where after some time (can be one week plus), you pick up your tab and the touchscreen is completely unresponsive on the lockscreen, can't even press powermenu? Reboot fixes. I had it on JSS1J and persists into JSS1Q. Hard to isolate as it may not happen for say a week of uptime, seems to be no pattern or consistent trigger
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4
I been getting the same thing. Charging over night the tablet wakes but touch is unresponsive. I'm on Clean rom and Elementalx kernel. Yesterday morning after 8 hours on battery and unused it woke and touch was fine. This morning after 6 hours on charger, over night, it woke and touch is fine. Need more testing.
Note: yesterday afternoon I update Elementalx kernal to 1.3
Yeah elemental or stock it happens

A week or more? I can't get my nexus 7 to last more than a few hours without rebooting itself.

I see this from time to time on mine. What sucks the most is when the damn alarm is going off and I can't do anything but hold the power down to reboot. Wife loves this "feature" in the early AM.
I have an unlocked bootloader but I'm running stock kernel (3.4.0-g6537a16) and stock JSS15Q. I do see random reboots as well, seems to be related to the screen going to sleep by itself but I can't reliably reproduce it.
Happens to me as well. Annoying.
I had this on stock locked so its nothing to do with bootloader or custom kernel/ROM.
Curious if a CM based ROM will affect this i.e. not stock JSS1Q based.
Is everybody facing this touchscreen issue? I am planning to get the new nexus 7 2nd Gen from canada. Is it something you can discover in the first week itself because the person who is bringing it will get the tab a week before her return.
If you're lucky it'll show up in that time period.
Others have gone 10 days.
Have them put off buying until the last second....
Same thing happening to me. The screen becomes unresponsive. Happens in the morning when the alarm is going off and have to reboot. I just updated to ElementalX 1.4 and hoping it'll fix it. I'm hoping Google comes out with an update soon because my screen sensitivity sucks sometimes. It's not registering my taps.
It doesn't lol it's either hardware or something in 4.3base

My one, after 10 days, dead, the touch screen has no response at all
sent back to repair for over 1 week, still no news on when can return..
really bad feeling with this Nexus 7 (2013),
only Nexus 4/7/10 has no problem and still working well till now.
I faced this as well. But it solves itself.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4
I experienced the same issue here. However, I am not able to reboot as I am still running on stock and don't have the debug option enabled. Pushing the power bottun for some time only brings up a menu where i may chosse to shut down. As the touchscreen is not working, I cannot do anything. Unfortunately, my battery is almost completely charged. Any ideas how to reboot?
Coincidence: The touchscren went unresponsive after the alarm clock went off. Maybe there is a connection?
Here's hoping JSS15R fixes this (fat chance hah)

Hold down the power button until it reboots.
I had this issue exactly once since I got mine, and it's been fine since. I suspect it's a hardware or driver issue.

I'm rooted on VS995, currently using AOKP ROM. Seems that any ROM I use, I get a green screen of death every 2 days on average. Pressing down volume reboots the phone and we're all good for a few days.
Anyone else see this?
What is a good way to get meaningful logs or meaningful data? I never know when it's going to crash and sometimes does overnight which kills my alarm.
Thanks!

Its a kernel issue. I've had it on various AOSP roms on the V20. Try using Werewolf Custom, that may help.

I had it on Werewolf Custom too. That is my current daily driver.
You know what is really odd is that I had the same problem with my rooted LG V10. I ended up setting it back to stock where it ran great (then I sold it). Rooting and LG are tough customers!

The last LG phone i had was the G3. Kernel panics all the time. The only devices, outside of Nexus products, that I owned that had no issues were HTC.

Happened twice tonight. AOSP, latest werewolf kernel. I duplicated the green screen but was literally installing a clean Ubuntu build on the laptop when it happened.
