So every time I load a 2.2 ROM, My phone starts to wig out and so random things when I am trying to type or anything else. I am rooted and have the ota 2.x radio installed. I keep having to go back to a 2.1 ROM with hydra kernel and everything is stable. I do a factory reset every time but still no go. any ideas?

a factory reset is not the same as a wipe from recovery menu afaik (if you mean a factory reset from bootloader (white screen))
boot into clockworkmod recovery and perform a wipe data/cache there, then flash it
some even experience problems with running the wipe from rom manager, so do it in the recovery menu instead
Thanks for the help. I tried what you said above and downloaded Sky raider 2.0 again. renamed it to update.zip then rebooted into clockwork. I did the wipe data/cache but sadly, I get the same results. I cant even get through the setup after the rom is installed. screen is unresponsive to my touch, but seems to have a mind of its own. I had best luck with CM 6 test 8 i downloaded from ROM manger, that ran for a day before starting to screw up.
Hey, question. Every single CM from 6.0 I have downloaded I have had issues with. I love the rom, but every time I get the same issue. When I install the rom all worked fine. I wipe all data, clear cache, and have to reinstall of course everything, my issue is that my phone will randomly freeze. Sometimes I get an error message saying the process process.android has failed, other times it just freezes. Does anybody have any ideas?
I loved CM 6.1 best Rom I've had yet. But after a week it started acting up and having problematic auto shutdowns like 8 times a day. I then searched for another stock Rom and tried skyraider vanilla, I hate it. It's basically skinned sense. That's it. I enjoy sense but it eats battery. My favorite roms so far are the desire Hd Rom and
CM but without the shutdowns is be perfect.

So this is the only other person I have run into with this problem. Everybody else I have talked to over other forums or IRC has never heard of these issues at all.
The only time I've ever had those shut down issues is when I start screwing with themes or when I start screwing with kernels or overclocking. I'm not sure what you've got going on there though
Well...
Well I have done some of that however I have reverted to "stock" several times. I have Hboot .92 installed also, i saw something online. The latest radio is also installed. I guess has anybody else seen any issues like this?
Try formatting the system in addition to wiping. CM does not format anything when you flash it. In CWM its under mount sd section.

This happened to me today, I am 99% sure it was the kernel I had installed though. I put back invisiblek's #18 and had no problems before or after.
okay I can mess around with that and see what happens then.

Let us know please.
This morning, I d/l the cyanogen 6.1 stable from ROM Manager, I then rebooted my phone into hboot then into recovery console. I then did a wipe of dalvik and battery stats. I then did the wipe data and then the clear partition cache, I then flashed the Cyanogen 6.1 Inc rom... then went fine... I loaded up into Cyanogen I then did a reboot and that's when my phone would not leave the HTC Incredible screen when rebooting! any ideas that can help me? I really like the Cyanogen ROM
Help!!! please!

You need to be a little more specific but do this.
1. Click on the Cyanogen link in my signature and download it.
2. Download google apps
3. Reboot into recovery
4. Wipe Data/Factory Reset
5. Wipe Cache Partition
6. Wipe Dalvik Cache
7. Select install zip from SD card and choose the cyanogen ROM, let it install
8. Select install zip from SD card again and choose the google apps.
9. Reboot your phone and sign into your google account and let everything sync
This is the best way to do it. Not through ROM Manager.
If this doesn't work then I have absolutely no idea. That is the 100% correct way to flash a ROM.

Yeah I mentioned it earlier in this thread. For some reason #21 and #22 do not like cyanogen.
I'm running #21 on my phone and I haven't had any issues yet.
Yeah IDK either... I had to revert now it's running like a champ! love the Inexus theme!
ok an update, I have everything working. I an using cm6.1, latest radio (on cm site), kernel 27, hoot .92, and the very latest clockwork that just came out. I know those last two should not matter, just letting you know. As of right now my phone is not freezing and everything works fine, even faster than before. When I first turned it on the phone did freezer and after that yet took a long time for 3g to start working. On reinstall I did a total revert to stock then did a factory reset and cleared all caches and everything on the phone there is to clear. It has been afew hours. I will update this if there are any more problems

Hi Everyone,
I have been running the unrooted leaked 2.2 since it came out, and have had zero problems until today.
My phone ran out of batteries, and after I plugged it in and turned it on, It got stuck in a boot loop.
I have tried the following to get out of the bootloop:
- take out the battery
- take out the battery and the sd card
- boot into recovery mode and restart from there
I know the official 2.3 ota is coming out soon, so I want to fix my phone and also be able to upgrade to that once it is out.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Eric
UPDATE:::
I finally just booted into recovery mode and wiped data/factory reset and it fixed it.
Then I just easily re-downloaded all the apps from the market on my browser and I'm back to normal.
Thanks!
prob gonna have to sbf or try a factory reset first... hadn't heard or read that one yet

Go back to recovery and wipe data
SBF, it's not hard, may even have to do it twice - I had some random issues like that too, SBF, now all factory stock, waiting for official update.

IT WILL STILL BOOTLOOP IF YOU JUST SBF. You still need to go into recovery and wipe data
Link to the Motorola help page on how to manual wipe (sorry I can't hyperlink because I'm a forum newbie)

Yeah, you are correct, I always wipe first, didn't think about making it an explicit step.
I was running on a rooted 3.1 with tiamat 1.7 overclock
What I did was:
tried to follow [UPDATE][US WIFI ONLY]Android 3.2 on Xoom WiFi, Root, via ClockworkMod Recovery
then I did this: Note also if you are coming over from a custom ROM, wipe your cache partition (under main menu) and dalvik cache (under Advanced) in ClockworkMod Recovery prior to performing the following steps.
next I applied the 3.2 update
Now Im stuck in the boot animation.
From what I understand Im getting this because I was not on the stock kernel, can anybody help me fix this and get me to 3.2
Thank you
download the stock images here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1080963
and flash via fastboot, this will get you out of the boot loop, i had the same issue
should I try and flash the 3.2 or the 3.1 given my current situation?
If you made a backup in cwm just restore it. If not, I would say go back to the beginning and flash stock 3.0. If you plan on rooting unlock the bootloader right then. Setup the Xoom, connect to wifi and take the 3.1 ota update. Setup and connect to wifi again and wait a bit to see if 3.2 ota update notification appears. If it does, take it and root it (see my guide in dev section). If it does not pop up, you can update manually (see bauxite's guide in dev section) then root. This way you should have no issues. I know it sounds like a lot to do, but it all should take you less than hour. I did one for a friend and it took me 34min to do everything. After your rooted you can restore apps with titanium if you have made and saved the backups. Good luck.

You probably should wipe user data in recovery along with the caches. That's what got me out of the bootloop and into the updated stock 3.2.
i flashed the stock images from the first link provided via fastboot and it worked perfect, the thread said you can flash from whatever to whatever by using those images so i flashed 3.2 and it fixed everything. Took about 5 minutes to do, I wonder if this way will give me problems when I try to root (pretty sure I lost root) but everything now seems to work fine
Hi,
I had the same issue. i fix by going back in cwm making factory reset and install again the same image.
after the first reboot i restored soft with titanium and all working good.

Yep, that's the easiest solution, but whatever works!
I just tried to flash Tiamat 2.0 and the boot image with it (I followed the directions and did them in the correct order), and it's now stuck at the Motorola boot screen (not the animation). Any suggestions? I'm not sure how to get back in to CWM now.
Edit: Managed to get in to CWM, did a factory/data reset and wiped cache before re-flashing. Still stuck on the boot screen.
i updated my aussie telstra xoom 3g to tiamat 2 (3.2) and booted fine but did not see 3g, so i used a bul.prop from 3.1 and got the bootloop prob, rebooted to recovery and did wipe erase, when it booted up again tried the euro build.prob and all worked, i suspect the issue relates to buil.prop so a bit of tinkering will always win in the end, bassically these things seem to be bullet proof when it comes to screwing summin up

What HC version were you on when you flashed 2.0? I'm just wondering if you needed to flash the boot image. It's hard to help you if we don't know what configuration you are coming from. Also Is your Xoom US wifi or 3G or Euro wifi or 3G?

My fault, I guess some information would have been helpful. The Xoom is a US WiFi version and I was running 3.1 when I started this, which I now realize was probably really stupid. I should have probably gotten 3.2 on there before I started. Is there a way to update to 3.2 at this point? Or do I need to go back to stock and start over?
I appreciate the help.
Edit: Or should I just install another ROM per these directions.

Are you rooted? If so, you can flash the Tiamat Xoom Rom 1.1 which is for 3.1. You don't need to flash any additional kernel. You can get it from the appropriate thread in Development. You will probably have to do a full wipe in CWM Recovery (user data, cache).
From there, you can flash the Team Tiamat Xoom Rom 2.0 Manta Ray right on top of the Rom 1.1, no wipe needed. That should get you the HC3.2 update, preserve your root, and give additional functionality. I love it. I updated in a more roundabout method...I could have done it this way if I had waited...
If you are not rooted, you need to root first..see any one of the guides to root in HC3.1.
Good luck!

Yeah, I was rooted before all of this. I had done a full wipe in CWM and then did the boot/kernel and now I'm here. I think I should have just done the Tiamat Xoom Rom 2.0 in stead. Can I just flash the 2.0 ROM over what's on there now?
Edit: Now, I can't seem to get in to CWM. I'm not really sure how to other than using adb reboot recovery, but windows isn't picking up the device now.
Edit #2: I got back in to CWM. I'm running CWM 3.0.2.5, FYI.
I just flashed Tiamat Xoom Rom 1.1 and now it's back up and running. Thanks a ton for helping! I'll probably be putting 2.0 on there pretty quickly.

Great! Have fun with it. I think you'll love it.
I have a problem restoring my xoom to stock.
I flashed the Katana OC kernel onto my Wifi Only US Xoom with 3.2. I oc'd to 1.5 ghz and it worked fine. Then I left it on during the night. When I woke up the next morning it was stuck in a boot loop, so I though maybe I should flash the Katana without OC instead. That I tried but It got stuck halfway through (Maybe I should have waited longer...).
After this the xoom wouldnt boot (not that surprising..) so I flashed it back to stock with the official Motorola images. However the Xoom still wont boot up, gets stuck either on Moto logo or on the Honeycomb boot screen.
When I flash the 3.2 images and a custom kernel (Tiamat 2.0) then I can get into Android but it stops responding after a few minutes.
The Xoom seems to be running good before it freezes, I cant find a solution to get my Xoom back to life.
Any ideas?

Have you done a full wipe user data/factory reset in CWM recovery? You may need a clean slate to proceed.
Also, do you know if debugging is set to on? If you can't boot you can't get into settings but that could prevent you from accessing your Xoom from your pc.

I have done the "Wipe user data/factory reset" in CWM, If I do that I usually can boot Honeycomb, but I rarely get past the setup wizard (although sometimes I do), but then after a few minutes it freezes again.
Also, I can access my Xoom through ADB.
I've re-installed Atrix 4 times on my phone, each time doing a factory reset, clearing cache, and Dalvik cache. I've had random reboots/shutdowns on every install of Alien Build #4 and Aura 1.1.3.8. One running Atrix stock kernal, 2 using faux's kernal 0.1.6 (one non-oc, one oc), and one using faux's OC 0.1.7. Now I'm running Aura 1.1.3 Build #8 Deblurred. All with random reboots and shutdowns.
I've noticed I never get a random reboot while I'm charging, only while on battery. I've calibrated my battery several times so it's not lack of juice. Sometimes it just reboots, other times it shuts down and doesn't reboot so I have to turn on the phone, though most of the time the screen won't turn on and the phone won't shut off so I have to take out the battery to turn on the phone. I've tried uninstalling SetCPU, disabling profiles, and setting the max clock to 1000mhz. None of this helped.
On the last Alien install (now I'm running Aura) I was having even more problems but they only happened on that install:
1. I got an error when trying to boot in red: "Unrecoverable Bootloader error (0x00000004)" though I was able to turn the phone off and reboot normally.
2. I got an error about 5 times in a row while trying to boot, I forgot the exact text but something along the lines of "Unable to load radio module (0)". I had to take out the battery and try about 5 times till it would boot properly.
3. After this, I was unable to boot into Recovery through the volume buttons, I'd press down till I got the Android Recovery, then press up and it'd hang there. It works now for some reason.
I installed Alien right when I got my phone so I'm unsure if random reboots happen stock. Also my phone gets really warm when I'm using it, I look in SetCPU and the CPU temp is anywhere from 42 to 57 C. Does anyone else's phone get this hot?
I would just take it back to Best Buy and get a new one cause I have a protection plan with them, but my phone is unlocked which voids the warranty.
Does anyone know what could be causing all of these issues and how to fix them?
Thanks for the help, XDA is great!
Im by no means a expert...but I'm currently running AURA 1.1.3#8 debloat and all is well on my phone....I would recommend performing a Ti backup on ur aps and doing a factory reset to see if the problem persists....if it does I would take it back...if not reinstall through CWM wiping devalk cache then a full data wipe then install AURA and reboot all in CWM ....btw I'm running Rom Racers CWM also. Hope you can get it figured out!

I would have just taken it in but my phone is unlocked, rooted, and using Romracers CWM so I doubt Best But will accept it. I've tried all of this. I'm going to try CM7 Beta2, if the problem still persists I don't know what to do cause Best Buy won't accept it when they see the Unlocked at the top of the bootloader. It works fine when it's charging but so far no matter what I've tried I always got reboots. Does your phone get hot? Can you check what temps you get in SetCPU? Thanks for the suggestions btw.
My phone has never gotten over 33*....Try going back to stock gingerbread and see if the problems persist there and if not then u can proceed forward.....that way you can rule out if the problem is the phone or a certain build and a bug you have picked up
Sorry I meant 39* on phone temp
I went into my settings>widow and turned it off then rebooted, seemed to work, I also would get random reboots after a fresh install. Like at least 20x. But try that. Worked for me.

33? Wow, my phone never goes below 42C, it's usually around 49-50C. How do you return to stock gingerbread like the phone came with? All I've found was flashing the SBF through RDA, is there any way to do it with CWM so it's safer? Sorry for the noobiness, I'm new to the Atrix, is there a way to completely restore the phone to stock (stock gingerbread, locked bootloader, no CWM)?
Edit: I just flashed CM7 pre-beta 2, going to see how this works, hopefully it fixes my problems.
performing a data wipe/factory reset in CWM should put you completely back to stock. It wont matter that you have a UL bootloader or rooted.

Are you doing a factory data/reset wipe cache and wipe dalvik step after you install a new rom? Do the same wipe steps before and after rom flash. If you are doing this then it sounds like a hardware problem or your bl got thrashed unlocking it.

It will only reset to the current rom defaults. If you have cm7 or alien flashed, It will revert back cm7 or alien. Doesn't effect root or bootloader. If the rom is pre rooted it stays rooted even after a full wipe.

That sounds highly possible as it happens with each install and I am doing a factory reset, cache wipe, and dalvik cache wipe with each install. If ran the unlocking script again would it erase the bootloader and re-install it to fix that?

If the bl is fubared and your not on the legit ota you can rsd to 1.83 and start over. If you are on the ota update then all you can use is cwm(safely)

My phone came shipped with 2.3.4 Gingerbread, I never used the OTA update. I re-ran the script and got another random reboot.
Edit: I'm flashing the official 2.3.4 SBF from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125944
I'll let you all know how things went.
From what I understand ...once u are on 2.3.4 if u try to flashback to. 83 it will hard brick you...definitely flash back to stock gingerbread 2.3.4 and hopefully that will solve your problems ....good luck
I installed Aura 1.1.3 Debloat #7 two days ago and my phone rebooted by itself today. I had it in my pocket, then I took it out and it was loading. I thought I might have pushed something when moving, but maybe it is related to the rom.
Okay, I flashed 2.3.4 with pudding boot loader unlocked and Romracer CWM Recovery. I'm going to install Alien and faux's kernal, hope flashing 2.3.4 fixed this and it's not a hardware issue.
Did you experience any problems while you were on 2.3.4 or did you flash straight to alien afterwards ...hope you get your problems figured out! Make a backup of the 2.3.4 flash also so if you do experience any problems you can always flash back

I flashed straight to Alien when I got the phone so I'm not sure it stock Gingerbread had problems. I just flashed 2.3.4 with pudding unlocked bootloader, Romracer's CWM, and finished installing Atrix Build 4 and faux's kernal 0.1.7. I'm going to take the phone off the charger (I only get reboots and shutdowns while on battery), and start installing my apps, restoring contacts, messages, and see if I have any problems. I'm not going to install SetCPU and mess with profiles and undervolting till I know I'm good.
I'll report how it's going tomorrow morning (usually by that time I get at least 5 to 10 random reboots/shutdowns). If this doesn't fix it then I'm going to flash the stock 2.3.4 SBF so they don't know I messed around with the device and take it back to Best Buy to get a replacement.
