anyone else with this problem? i decided to stop using wp7 after a couple of auto - hard reset after every 4-5 days of usage and countless hours of deploying side applications and dreadful unlocking chevrons and activation codes and etc... %@$%
SIGH.
anyone who can solve this problem is much appreciated.
i once had this issue, too: turned my hd2.7 on in the morning, had a look at the display and voila - all settings are gone to factory state (brown tiles, english lanquage, all my apps were gone, too....) first time i was shocked; but then i discovered that this behaviour was the result of the non-compatibility of my sd-card! i switched my device off, pulled out the sd-card, re-inserted it directly after pulling it out and as i startet my hd2.7 again, all settings, apps and data were back!!!!! seemes to me, that any sort of cache or ram partition on the card runs into full after a few days of continouus using the device, and then the card disappears from the raid-system, looking to the user like performing a hard-reset... it's just like you would have startet your divice without the card insertet then.
for me, the solution was to buy a stated-as-compatible sandisk 8gb class 2 card - now all my wp7 problems are gone away
thank you my mannn!
edit: it doesnt work, it keeps auto reboot before even entering the home (tiles). and sumtimes when it gets in, it is factory resetted.

Hi
This is my first post here. I have done a few searches about this and people seem to have experienced similar things. What I want to ask though is why this particular issue/s happen in the first place. Hope I'm not going over old ground but here goes:-
Have had my XDA II for a couple of months.
Last night, I had an error message saying that the memory was almost full, something about critical levals.
I checked the memory and it said there was only about 3 mb (out of 125.86 total) available main memory split between storage/program. Storage was up to about 110mb used, the balance in program.
This surprided me as I have only installed a couple of programs since new totalling about 4 mb.
The screen then froze.
Soft reset did nothing.
Hard reset did nothing.
Took battery out and back in. Only half rebooted and then froze. tried a few more times. Same again.
Took battery out and left for about 15 mins. this time started up OK. Performed hard reset.
Reinstalled the 2 programs which were lost during the above.
Now working fine again, with about 95mb of free memory!!
What puzzles me is:-
There was very little other data stored/programs running other than the 2 programs already mentioned so how the memory got so full I really don't know.
Why would it not reset until the battery was removed for 15 mins?
I have resolved it now and it seems to be working ok again but are these common problems? How can the memory be so full, but have 95mb free now when the same programs are installed? Is my XDA II faulty or is this normal?
Many thanks in advance
Hi, not sure why my user name did not appear in the above post, but just so you know, it was me!
Hopefully my registered user name will now appear.
Hmmmm.... I''m getting the same problem although when I did the hard reset it showed that I had an empty memory but I knew things were left behind as I didnt have to reinstall the unlock program.
Are you still running ok without crashes?
strange thing for me was that I dropped it on grass, it turned off and I couldnt start it again so I took out the battery and sim card and when I rebooted it hard set all by itself which was annoying!
Anyway, if yours is still running good I may do that to mine.
However there may be a fix for this problem, which is a memory leak issue evident on all PDA’s running windows mobile 2003 second edition. You will need to perform a hard reset (this will wipe the xda of all data and restore it to factory settings) when prompted select corporate option (enter the pin 0506 when prompted).
If I do a hard reset I go back to the old OS that isnt 2003 - it loads automatically with all the O2 **** that goes with it.
My HD2 never goes into stanby.
I isolated the problem to Sense and the SD Card.
The ROM is Energy and Radio is fine.
What happens is simple, the stanby (screen off) current is on -200 instead of -2.
When I turn off Sense - it goes back to -2.
When I remove the SD Card - It goes back to -2.
Conclusion - When Sense is on, It must be using some of the memory card.
There are no apps installed on it, any auto updates, any software cache that is writing to the memory card, etc.
I JUST flashed the ROM and there is nothing on it. Flashed twice 2 various versions just to be safe.
Any idea how to fix this strange problem ?
re-format youre sd card, lots of users(including myself) have fixed the issue this way
Should I check " FAT 32" ?
Should I run a full format or a quick format ?
yeah, fat32...
i think full is better than quick
give it a try...
DN41
also make sure the alloc unit size is 32kb
^^^^^^^Love the animated Gif!^^
Thanks I did just that but no results.
I also found that even without installing anything to the SD Card, I can still see an Application Data folder on there with "HTC Image cache" and all kinds of things all on it.
Is it normal ?
Any other ideas ?

that is normal for our phones. I always delete it after a flash then hard reset just to clear it, but it will always be there.
Do you have any other Sd cards laying around that you can try?
I did a test on mine today. Went to bed (I work nights) at 0800, left the phone on, locked, with screen off. Power settings set at 50% when unplugged, with backlight set to turn off at 5min and device standby at 10min.
I had a 85% charge when I went to bed, and when I checked it 8 hours later, it was at 77%. That was with 8 missed calls, So 40 minutes of screen on time and 40 minutes of active time with screen off.
So I got my Note 4 (N910F) a couple of weeks ago, everything was fine until today when I changed the sim cards, now the phone randomly restarts. I have taken the micro SD card out, that seemed to increase the time between restarts slightly but it still happens, also checked to see if the battery was inserted properly but that was fine. Is there anything I can try before doing a factory reset? Would be a considerable chore to download/customise everything again with no guarantee of it fixing the problem.

same problem. but after factory reset. i haven't encounter any random restart
Just a bit of an update, found out that the problem was with the CPU power saving feature. Turning it off prevented the restarts from happening, just tried to enable it and got a restart. Would recommend anyone getting this to try disabling CPU power saving if they haven't already, before trying a factory reset.
Why CPU power waving causing restart when enabled?
hi guys. my girlfriend has this A5 2016, and it is a complete piece of ****. it restarts on it's on, be it updating, under heavy usage or just in standby mode. it restarts several times in a row, sometimes going into that "optimizing applications" green screen before completing boot. sometimes it stays in this green screen for hours before i give up and reset it. sometimes it works, sometimes it goes back to the green screen. my girlfriend lost appointments a couple of times before learning that she can't rely on this POS phone.
as you can see, there isn't a clear pattern. is there a log in the system where I could check for the cause of all these crashes?
If your girlfriend didn't make any modification to it, prehaps her phone is fake
Maybe something was installed that doesn't work and makes the phone crash in the background or maybe the phone was shutdown while doing an update from the firmware. (it's a maybe, i am just guessing)
If you have a micro sd card (memorycard) in the phone you can remove it and see if the problem is still there. If problem is solved you need to format that card or maybe even replace it with a new microsd card
Also you can reset it to factory settings to remove everything you changed in the phone (after factory reset don't restore your apps in google play without very good looking if the apps are working ok)
If that doesn't solve the problem you can install TWRP recovery and do a full wipe & after that flash the stock firmware with Odin. If that still doesn't solve the problem you need to bring it back to the store where you bought it
Well it looks like I'll still have to send my S8 Plus in for service. I've tried wiping the cache, factory resetting, no SD card, new SD card, no apps and after getting a suggestion on here yesterday morning I tried redoing the software with Smart Switch program on my PC. I also set the phone back up from scratch, so not to bring anything over to new set up. It seemed to work for a day but today has started locking up again. I took a video this time...I was browsing YouTube when it locked up completely and wouldn't respond at all. I waited several minutes before even taking the video. Only way to get it to respond was to force restart with side buttons. Power or Bixby wouldn't work. Could this be a hardware issue?
