I've been searching for the last few days and have yet to really find anything to help me fix my problem.
the story:
Phone was rooted, back in Jan and I was running GummyJar 2.5, no problems, went to Apex V 1.3, no problems, but it ran a little slow. Today I decided to switch to something else to attempt and fix the speed problems, first I tried Incredibly Re Engineered v1.0, the phone ran well, but every 2-3 minutes it was rebooting me and sending me to the clockwork screen. So then I figured it had something to do with the ROM, so I went to Fission 2.5.7. Same problem, the phone runs great when it's on, but the constant restarted is unreal. I've done a factory reset, unrooted then rerooted the phone, then reinstalled the ROM, same problem.
Anyone ever have this issue and have a solution?
Thank you,
Eric
edit: Phone acts fine while plugged in to the computer or wall charger. Also made and attempt with SBF, to no avail.
Try an sbf....then go back to fission.
Just my thoughts. No overclock at first.
Running the SBF restore again...we will see what happens.
Hopefully someone else will stop by with thoughts.
Fission for me is real stable, ran it for long time now.
Worried it may be hardware problem....?
Might want to only install important apps at first also.
Try wiping data from Clockwork several times.
If that doesn't work you should definitely try SBFing and wiping data several times afterward.

I agree, I also loaded several ROM's and had a growing list of issues, SBF took care of everything for me.
Mine reboots when I pause video playback when connected with hdmi. But only since gingerbread, and I'm on my fourth version of gb. They have all done it so far, hoping official .596 will fix.
DX 2.3.3
Did the SBF'd it. Phone works flawlessly. I am now running Fission and Launcher 7, all without a hitch. Guess the phone just had to much going on and needed a fresh start.
Thank you all for the input. After I get a few more posts, I will post links and a DIY on how to do what I did. It was difficult for me to find anything with all of the steps and links in one spot, I want to make it easier for the next person experiencing this problem.
Yay! ....
Hey I been having the same problem with my droid x mines runnin stock 2.2.1 tho but it just keeps restarting and I don't know how to fix it lol. Im kinda new to this phone so does anybodyy have any suggestions?

Not sure if i have had this before but there is a big lag on the message default app, when u click it back to homescreen. Does anyone else have this problem ?????
Seems a firmware issue. Try to reboot the device. If remains, a Factory Reset. Make sure you don't have some other messaging apps.
I used to have this and had to clear memory on the task manager to get it back to full speed again.
I have recently upgraded to the KG5 (polish?) 2.3.4 firmware and this no longer happens.
same happens with me. did factory reset nothing changed
Running KKH3
Tried lots of things, changing firmware, wiping. etc can't stop the lag. any other ideas driving me nuts
In KI4 it dpesnt happen at least.
I have the same issue, but I refuse to update the firmware to anything that messes with the tint (I one of the few who likes it). So for now I guess I'll be sticking with the slightly laggy messaging app.

When I see all these posts about problems, I honestly can not relate at all because my TF101 with ICS literally has no problems at all. I've downloaded about 30 apps so far.
Other people who say they have no problems also usually mention that they did a factory reset before upgrading to ICS.
Just a coincidence?
I did and haven't had as many issues as others....some tho - tearing when expanding the recent app list, some random app crashes that I'm blaming on the apps....I did have a reboot cycle yesterday after waking up on battery from the dock...a cold boot remedied that.....other than that it's been a good update....
mines running smooooth as well, I did a full wipe so doing a factory rest didnt make sense to me. I'm running AR HD..
No factory reset for me and I'm good so far.. well I just got it back from Asus, I think they might have done one lol

full wipe does what factory reset does plus more.... so you did do factory reset. Can't believe you are taking it that literally.

Nope. And I upgraded directly from a custom ROM.
100+ apps installed before the upgrade and running great afterwards: no random reboots, battery draining or app crashing. The only issue I have is with Chrome occasionally locking up. However I attribute that to its BETA status.

Perhaps ... perhaps not. A problem-free ICS upgrade, however, is not the sole provenance of those who factory reset/full wipe.
--L.
I did a full wipe when updating to ICS. Was fine for the first few days and now I have reboots/shutdowns maybe once a day. I had battery drain once as well. Its actually been pretty good other than that but I have kept it pretty standard with only a few apps as I am waiting for some better ROMS to come out with fixes.

I did not wipe or factory reset. Have had one LOD 3 hours into sleep mode, one boot loop when I pulled out the SD card and one spontaneous reboot soon after coming out of sleep mode and rotating from landscape to portrait. Have had various Google app issues that are working themselves out.
I was prepared to wipe after I took the OTA, but haven't because I have had zero issues. I use my tf101 everyday, and it hasn't locked up or randomly rebooted once. I have about 60 apps installed.
Nope. I just hit update.
I've had the weird shutdown during sleep only once since first day update was available for USA.

I only had an error that Android media closed out something like that for the first few days after update.
Clearing caches in my music apps seemed to work at first. Now that is back and my tf had been shutting down while in sleep. Just put it down to sleep for about 20 mins came back to Android logo on the screen with the circle froze.
It seems like this is getting worse for mine. tried everything but a wipe. Stock has not been rooted.
have always been on stock since the beginning. Never had any major issues. Was considering rooting to get cornerstone when it is stable.
Until than what other options can fix the reboots.
For some reason on honeycomb downloading something or the honeycomb status bar would always flash and mess up. I downloaded lots of stuff and tweaked it so that might be why. I wiped after coming from revolver and went to stock ICS. When it updated it was crazy slow and laggy. After every app was restored from the market I reset it and it FLEW. It just flies in terms of speed.
When I did my titanium restore I restored EVERYTHING. Not just apps but system data as well. When I did that I noticed it was slower and laggy and that notifications and download gitch was present.
I did factory reset again and only restored the app data this time and it's perfect now. No more lag or anything. Titanium back ups are fine and everything but if you were currently having lag or weird problems restoring the system settings doesn't help. I did not need them anyways. I love ICS. I really love how we get the status/notification bar that the prime has. Also the sony tablet and other tablets now have the little box markers at the top which let you know what page you are on. I'm glad we get that now as part of ICS too.
Factory reset definitely helps. Also I got to see that cool droid restoration image when it was resetting everything. I have never seen that before and it looked awesome.
no factory reset, Everything working good
This thread is complete nonsense, and to prove it, I have two TF101 tablets here. One was wiped before *and* after the ICS update, and had almost nothing reinstalled on it. The other was not wiped before *or* after. There are pretty-much no programs installed in common on both. Both are experiencing random, spontaneous reboots. Both are experiencing lockups. I've yet to see a boot loop on the one that wasn't wiped, but that's just chance -- I'm quite certain if I left it long enough, it would boot loop too, just like the one that was wiped.
horndroid loves to try and suggest this is somehow a user problem, but it's not. It's a fundamental problem of the stock Asus ICS ROM.
My result;
Normal upgrade from HC to ICS = strange behauvor and reboots.
Factory reset and upgrade to ICS = works like a dream, no big complains...
After ICS I have notice that some times ( one or maybe two times a day) screen is flash /flickering - but only for a micro second. Statusbar sometimes flickering when open, but not a big deal...
I have about 200 apps installede, many from 2 parts Market ( read Aptoide)

Yea it's definitely something that will be patched by Asus. I have the random reboots and the flickering screen.

I had a small problem when I updated my asus tf. Sometimes. when I pressed the home button, all the icons disappeard and I couldn´t do almost nothing with the launcher.
Then I decided to do a factory reset and now all is going well on my transformer

Yeah. It is hard not to notice this in about everyone of his replies. I am glad his works, but a growing majority of people it does not.
So i hope this anticipated fix which ASUS is rolling out NW fixes the probs-- Hum!! I seem to recall being called out as spreading rumors in another thread about the ASUS fix. - Well like i said the fix is on its way.
No wipe from rooted stock ... the odd second of screen flicker when running onskreen but nothing to cry about. All good really
My EEE Pad was running like **** (i.e. sleep of death, rapid drain, huge lag, random reboot) I have upgraded from stock 3.2 without performing factory reset.
I tried cold boot and that did not help anything.
So I took the plunge and did full wipe + cold boot. So far have not had a single issue. Just FYI.
Mine actually appears to be getting worse and worse, quickly. The stock apps are going o pieces. Google Maps repeatably crashes if I zoom in beyond a certain level, or if I enable the satellite view layer. Gmail is near-unusable -- email counts are frequently incorrect, or are correct but new emails that are visible through a web browser don't show up when you reload in the app, the app repeatably crashes when I click on certain email threads to view them, and randomly crashes at other times, sometimes within seconds of opening the app in the first place. Google Reader likewise often locks up, doesn't mark posts as read when you click on them, doesn't reload posts correctly, etc.
It's *only* the Google apps that are misbehaving; well, other than the OS itself regularly, randomly rebooting, freezing, or getting stuck in boot loops, this is.
And this is all on a stock, unrooted TF101 that has relatively few apps installed, and was wiped both before and after the ICS update.
Looks like when this new patch arrives, I'll be wiping and starting from scratch yet again, in the hopes of resolving this mess.
Hi!
I'm suffering from reboots on my Note (also on my S2...). I call them "black" reboots because the screen becomes black, there's no start-up animation , I only hear the sound, and the home screen don't comes up, or it do it after a long delay. So, the screen is mostly black. Until 2-3 minutes pass, and reboot again.
-Sometimes occurs simply starting up the phone in the morning. I'm advised of a slow launcher load (Go Launcher, but it can occurs on TW).
If I go to System Monitor (System Panel app), I see the 2 cores working hard, toghether or alternating. The "System" app goes mad. The battery drain becomes quick, and the phone back around the camera begins to warming...
After 2-3 minutes with this behaviour, the "black" reboot comes up. Often, after rebooting, the message "Unable to run System process"- Force Close-Wait (or so) appears in the black...etc
If I force shut-off, then I wait and then shut-on again, all things seem normal, until...reboot
-Factory reset (through Recovery, of course) seems arrange all things, until I load again the apps. I've unistalled all "tweaking" apps for overclocking, Ram managing, etc. I only have Root explorer and Speed Boost as Root operating things...
- My Rom is an odex Pre-rooted XXLC1, Modem XXLB2, but the multiCSC is not from it.
How the phone can become so unstable with only the half memory app capacity occuped? (800 Mb or so of 2GB)?
And how can it often occurs on updating apps from damned Google Play Store?
Is worth to flash another Rom (not ICS...), or re-flash same with its CSC included?
Sorry if I've been too long. In my searchs I only see things about bricks or another type of reboots.
Thanks for read me!
i get these once every two weeks or so.
I also get these type of reboots, I get them on RocketROM and on previous roms I've had installed the only way I've found to get out of them is to boot into recovery and wipe the caches. Before I was rooted I removed some of the apps I'd moved to the SD Card and that sometimes stopped the boot loop. I now only update apps one by one someone suggested it was to do with the amount of apps moved to the sd card and the multiple updating of them. I'm still not sure of the cause I know its the only flaw on my Note that I'm fed up with.
Im running stock ics rom straight from samsung only with root and getting the same behaviour as yourself. About 2 to 3 times a week...

Ive posted a poll as i also experience this issue. Can you vote on the poll here please with how many reboots you are getting etc - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1706343

Guys, i don't know if I'm going to cry of pain or to laugh of huge joy, after seeing this is almost ..."normal"
We have a beautiful 500€ plastic and metal block which is unable to perform the half of things it's supposed to do! And we don't know exactly why...
Sure I do wipes, but most of times this fixes nothing, and the reboot returns.
If I re-install with Titanium, I am very careful unsellecting into the batch which things can cause problems, installing only a few apps.
After some days, I go on installing manually some others.
The Play updates are critical, as I see... Why? How it's possible that this "beasts" with so much RAM and so much App Memory (2 GB on S2 and Note!) fail down handling its management, with their super 2 core CPU's?
It's too serious. How we can live with a 500€ phone rebooting bad 2 times a week?
Can you imagine that on your computer, forcing you to re-install OS and apps once or twice a week? It's crazy. Is Android going crazy?
Maybe Samsung don't like Root users? Have HTC same problem?
There's someone with a non rooted phone with same problem?
Are you guys running stock? Had custom rom installed or still have?

I have this Rom, based on strict stock, but rooted: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24690725&postcount=154
Mine is the XXLC1
No tweaks, no overclocking, no CWM...
I had the same problem when my GN was on rooted LC1. I disappeared after I made a factory reset and let my apps reinstall by Play Store.
Yes me too got out of this strange reboot by a factory reset today morning.
Something is messed up .....
Very difficult to find that something ...
better idea would be a factory reset .....
I think the problem is with the Stock Samsung Rom, it doesnt happen in CM9 Roms. I had this problems wen on ROcket rom, but vanished when on Asylum Rom.
go wild...

Yesss, very difficult. I'm not on advanced technical stuff, but my intuition says that is something deep inside the Rom, something that is related to CPU-Memory management.
By the way, do you have/had many apps (250+)? Have you made recently massive update and/or installing apps, or massive "App to SD" moves?

You are pushing me a little step more to the wild side of Android.... Here I'll go!
It seems to me that the Note is a strangely different phone of, say, S2. Some apparently "simple" apps that I carry on from 2 years ago don't run right.
And the little lags that sometimes appear on touching icons, never, never appear on the fast S2.
Lol be carefully factory on ICS resetting...
Try and official rom, haven't seen it myself

Don't worry, baz77, I don't touch ICS by now even with gloves & calipers...
So i've had my G2 for a few weeks now and it has started acting weird.
I have done nothing to it besides installing some apps, from the play store not from anywhere else.
But now it has started lagging MASIVELY, sometimes i can't even come past the lockscreen, and sometimes the lockscreen is not even there.
Also when i try to type a message or something it starts the massive lag, i have no diea why since i've jsut used it as it is, taking photos and using instagram/facebook/snapchat, no gaming or anything else.
Also, notifications comes after the real message i get, vibration comes on 15 seconds before.
It also heats up when it is in my pocket and drains the battery.
This usually happends when i open up facebook messenger, but i can't uninstall it since i find it necessary to have.
If anyone could i reply, i would be higly gratefull!
@RomWiz I dont know why all those things are happening to you but, you can try to wipe cache,dalvik-cache and flash dorimanx kernel and or switch to another stock based rom.
If you wanna stay stock I suggest to go to settings and see how much the apps are using your memory. Facebook is syncing the whole time so its really an battery drainer. On full stock I also cant suggest much what to do since I never had that phone.
I hope that someone else with real g2 experience could help you more with your issue, goodluck with your problem and I hope you can fix it soon.:good:

How could i wipe dalvik on the stock rom?
And i've had it for a few weeks, and i see no one else complaining about this lag on the G2, so i don't know why this is happening.
tried rebooting?
also check the battery stats in the settings see if it shows what's draining battery, that's most likely causing all the system hogging

I may also think that it has to do something with the thermal throttling of LG stock rom.
The only way to wipe it is in an custom recovery without wiping all your data.
I did a factory reset and it seems to be fixed now, but who knows.
Maby in a few weeks it'll start again.
@RomWiz alrigh have fun with your phone if it happens again I suggest to maybe flash an modified stock rom or the g3 rom port with dorimanx kernel.
