Hi everyone
I'm new to Nexus S, was using Zte Blade. Well, it's an unpleasant experience of me having so many random reboots with every ROM i tired in last two weeks.
My Blade was rock solid for every thing i threw at it. I tried every Blade rom and never have these strange reboots.
On nexus S, I tried every single ROM that i found on xda-dev, still having these random reboots.
Any suggestion are warmly welcome, all i need is a stable ROM without reboots.
Device info:
Nexus S, i9023
Thanks alot.
regards

Give the oxygen rom a try. Has been very stable for me. I had a lot of random reboots with anything cm7 based.

Go back to stock. Nothing beats stock when it comes to stability and speed. I'd suggest Odin back to grh78 and then ota update.
Or you could also flash your first nandroid. I have not had a single reboot since the day 2.3.4 was released and I switched back to stock from cm7

Before you go back stock, try Peter Alfonso's ROM. I suffered badly from reboots under CyanogenMod based ROMs but now everything works how it should.
Thanks everyone for your kind suggestions.
I conclude, i should try oxygen and Alfonso. If the situation remains the same then i will return to the stock.
Tonight i'm gonna try oxygen.
I had similar issues. Been on Oxygen ROM for about a week now. Zero reboots. Fantastic ROM.
FWIW, I have even had random reboots on stock Rom/kernel unrooted!

I'm a CM7 fan really, but I overslept too many times because it rebooted during the night and bootlooped and so my alarm didn't go off!

If you had the same issue on a stock rom (pre 2.3.3) you need to get a new device. This is not normal in any way.

Hi everyone
I think i have found the solution for random boots--at least working for me.
I tried oxygen, alfonso and every other rom in forum with no luck.
Finally i figured out that the common thing among all these ROM flashes is the radio image (XXKD1-GRJ22).
I flashed an older radio XXKB1-GRJ40 and it apparenly solved the issue of random reboots for me. I'm observing it for last 15+ hours.
I will report back after a couple of days.
Cheers

I'm running Kaos 3.7.3 custom Rom on my Nexus 7 and a couple of times a day the sound just quits working. If I reboot it starts working again. Any recommendations before I try another rom or go back to stock? Thanks.
I have the same problem on Kaos too. Maybe it's a ROM issue then. I'll mention it on the Kaos thread. See you there.

Its definitely an issue with the ROM... flashed Kaos on for a couple of days and had that issue... tried running a few different roms and never experienced it again
I'm still on my stock ROM with just root permissions and I'm getting random reboots every once in a while. Before I was rooted I had one or maybe random reboots that I remember and one of the times it just reboot while it was in my pocket. I rooted my phone two days ago and since then my phone has randomly rebooted itself about 4 times already. I had the two mods added which were the touch screen and video bitrate mod. After I seen it happen more than usual after adding those mods I reverted back to stock. I was wondering if anyone else is having these types of issues maybe perhaps a bug in the stock 4.2.1.

might be a widget. a lot of people are having luck with the franko kernel. but his r16 build released earlier today started giving people random reboots. he either has it fixed already or is in the middle of doing so. the r15 build that i am on is great. but i would wait for the 16. the changelog looked pretty good.

I saw an article from android authority that said Google is aware of the random. Reboots and working on a fix soon. I just reed that after the post.
Can I flash francos kernel on my stock ROM ? Won't that cause problems. ?

franco says you dont have to wipe anything. then another guy came in right behind him and said to wipe dalvik. its on one of the last three pages in his thread. id say wipe just in case.

wouldn't hurt to wipe anyway. ill stop wiping and see if i notice a difference though, so far i dont notice any. so id probably just skip out on wiping as it does seem useless because my phone still feels the same
Anyone else had this / any ideas - my s4 randomly reboots. Can sometimes be when I'm using it or other times when it is sitting idle.

yup, i had this after running a custom rom for a few days. i'm sure it wasn't the rom though, i restored back to stock last night just in case, we'll see.
However, in the future, please also post your ROM, kernel, etc.
For example, having your phone OC might result in such random reboots...

I didn't change the kernel and I don't want to name the ROM because I'm sure it's not its fault - it was fine for a few days with plenty of reboots and activity/usage. Sounds like others on stock have the same problem (not necessarily related to the camera issue), so I've gone back to my stock backup and will see what transpires.

I understand you, but it is not like blaming the ROM creator. Is that you might have discovered a bug, and you can help to get it solved.
personally, the first thing I would do is to make a factory reset. This is not the case for you any more... but however.
Good luck and please tell us got things go on...
Fair enough, it was slim bean build 6 on Verizon. I reverted to my stock twrp backup last night (10hrs ago) and been fine so far...
Little background - been running cm7 for a long time. Flashed the alpha/beta builds when cm10 work started. The alpha worked well, but as the betas progressed and then the nightlies came, the constant freezing and random rebooting basically made the nook unusable. A sd card install experienced the same issues. Since no one else seemed to be experiencing these issues, I just went back to çm7 and have used that since.
Flash forward to today, thought I'd give a stable 10.1.2 a try. Same issues, if it doesn't reboot or freeze on the cm boot screen then it will do it in the setup screen. Wiped data/cache of course. Anyone experienced these issues or have any ideas on a solution? It'd be nice to experience some jellybean goodness. Thanks.

Only thing I could add is that when I flash a new rom, I boot up into that rom before I go back into TWRP and flash gapps. I have never had the issues you describe. I see you are coming from CM7. That takes a Factory Reset along with a wipe of Cache and Dalvik Cache.

Did the last suggestion help? I added it later so you might have missed it but I'm sure you not performing a Factory Reset when flashing is the root of your problem.
on the latest d802 4.4.2 custom roms and kernels i get a lot of freezes.
it will freeze in the middle of an animation and will take some seconds up to some minutes and then working normal again.
sometimes i have to hard-reboot to get out of freeze / lag.
on older 4.4.2 slimroms i never had this behavior, only since some weeks with new roms / kernels.
i`ve tried every rom / kernel combo but sooner or later i will get a freeze again.
could a revert to stock and re-rooting / flashing custom rom maybe a solution? i`m afraid to do this because of the long time to backup my 32gb data.
what are your experiences with the latest 4.4.2 roms and kernels? did you find a solution for this with any combo or fixes?
help would be appreciated.
push! no one else with same problems? maybe i got a hardware defect?

The only thing I can say is I own the VS980 version of the device and i've tried every single 4.4 rom offered on this sight and have the same issue with all. Most of the time i'm using the device and it freezes, sometimes reboots, and sometimes comes out of it after a few minutes. Also not being able to wake the device only seeing a black screen and forced to hard reboot device. 4.3 seems to be a much better with these issues but not completely solved for me. I'm hoping the release of 4.4 source from lg will fix these issues but i'm unsure. So at least your not alone in these problems lol. I've tried multiple kernels and governors etc. Bumping up the min freq on the cpu seems to help and changing to interactive governor but doesn't eliminate the issue just help. I thought my next move would be to use lg flash tool and update to latest firmware reroot and install cwm.

i think i will do the same today after work. hopefully this helps.
the better option would be to stay some days on stock rom to ensure there is no hardware defect. but i can`t stand stock so this would be a hard route! ^_^

Yea unfortunately it seems very common among these devices so i'm pretty confident it's a software issue although i'm not 100% sure of that. I ran a flex rom for a few days on 4.2.2 and didn't have any of the same issues.
added a poll as a matter of interest.
omni-ROM, Mokee rom, vanir rom etc.freezing problem still continues.
Using CM11 (4.4.2) for 5 days with zero freezes so far.. note that this is on D800, not 802.

Yes, stock cm kernel.
I'm thinking back now and it did freeze once when first signing into the Google account immediately after flashing the ROM, but nothing after that. So.. nearly spotless
Nice! Maybe they are getting the issues ironed out. Haven't been on cm11 for a week or so since it was the worst with freezes for me. I'll have to give it another shot.

Best of luck! To be specific, I'm using the snapshot release of cm11... still don't trust the nightly releases
i did a lg flash tool stock restore, factory reset and OTA updates. now the freezes did not come back until now *knock on wood*.
when i did a backup of the sd there was one corrupt media file which was not able to transfer.
maybe the media scanner did go crazy and was the reason for the freezes.
using cm11 m3 on my d802... very little freezes compared to previous nightlies, fingers crossed
